AN: Yay! Look it's me. TK, the one and only, back, but only for a little while. At least, for a Digimon story ^^;; I hope I won't abandon this one. It's a bit different from my other ones, I guess cos I know more about the conclusion of series 01-02, and I'm still a bit depressed about it. I know how it ends now, so I'm writing a very different type of fic.
Tai/Sora fans welcomed, but I don't want flames. I myself am a Tai/Sora fan, but lately I've been finding myself swaying towards Taito as well ^^;; Ah well, matter of preference, wouldn't you say? I just like readers with open minds really. There's no denying Matt and Sora ended up together at the end 02 and had 2 kids, though the thought of that would likely make a lot of us puke. Well, this is my take on what happened. I hope you guys enjoy ^^
Oh also, this story skips a few years between chapters, but no big details will be missed. I think that about wraps it up. Please review? Thanks guys. Ciao!

"Will you marry me?"
The question seemed so out-of-place. Was this her? Was she hearing this? Why? But...she thought that...
Sora looked into clear-blue, icelandic eyes, eyes that were sincere, yet trembling.
"I - I don't know, Matt...I thought you didn't want to - "
"Sora, I DO want to marry you."
Matt breathed in the chilly air as he stared down at her bewildered face. She was confused. And why shouldn't she be? They weren't dating, they'd never been boyfriend and girlfriend. This was out of the blue, completely unexpected, even to him. Her shoulder-length strawberry hair blew in the winds from the north, her thin eyebrows knotted and her ruby eyes clouded. He had just proposed to her?
Gods, what am I DOING? Why am I asking her to marry me? Do I want to?
They both stood up to the hill and gazed down at the others. The same group of original Digdestined gathered once more for the graduation of Tai, Sora, Izzy, and Matt. Jyou had graduated the year before, and Izzy was graduating early with them.
Matt and Sora had become good friends, Sora ever developing the crush on the pretty blonde rockstar. Tai turned more toward his soccer than anything, and had developed an interest in diplomats. A cold shoulder had been turned to Sora long ago, not that she noticed, for her shoulder was as icy when it came to him. Matt noticed, and it tore him apart. He had done everything he could to maintain his friendship with the chestnut-haired boy who had stolen his heart from the first day into the digital world.
But here he was now, proposing to Sora.
Why was he doing this?
Yes, Sora had had an intense crush on him, but look at her now. If she was certain she wanted to be with Matt forever, wouldn't she have jumped into it right now, at this moment, said yes before he'd even finished asking?
She didn't.
She trembled in the chilly wind, gazing down at her companions who were carefree and discussing what they wanted to do with their lives when they graduated. She heard Daisuke's voice above them all.
Did she want to get married?
She knew she could be supported. Matt had the money. She'd be able to pursue her career easily, free, no confinements. Matt would allow her that freedom, give her everything she'd need. Why wasn't she jumping into this opportunity?
Matt had a feeling she knew why. And he had the feeling he knew why as well. It was the same feeling that neither of them would ever be able to share their lives with Tai.
"Let me think about it," Matt heard Sora's soft voice reply to him as her eyes remained on the group down below. He shoved his hands in his pockets, turned, and left her to her solitude. He knew what her answer would be, and inside, it ate at him slowly, torturingly.
She was going to say yes.
As he left, he gazed briefly at Tai and saw the pain and adoration in his eyes as he stole a glance of Sora standing atop the hill. The look stabbed into Matt's heart, and he turned away, his brows knotted and his determination hardening. If he couldn't have Tai, he wouldn't let Tai have her.
A big circle.
He loved Tai, Tai loved Sora, Sora was going to be Matt's.
What's wrong with that balance? What is it that's so unnatural about it?
He waited for TK to wave goodbye to him, then he trodded to his car, ignited the engine, and left without another word, nor another thought.
