Okay, this little fic...eh, I don't know why I wrote it, I think I was just bored. It's short and I might continue it. But seeing how I am so freakin' slow w/ writing my DMS, it might take me awhile to continue this.

The real reason I wrote this was b/c I was ...I am stuck on my DMS for ever! I don't know what to write next or what should happen next. I just can't seem to finish it. Or start the next chapter. Whichever. But don't worry for those who have read it. I will finish it, it just may take me a long time. And I'm so sorry about that.

Well...I hope you enjoy this. I'll try to post the next part to it as soon as I can. This one seems easy enough to continue J And it just seems to come easier.

Disclaimer: C'mon people if I owned Digimon I'd freakin' be rich and not be writing fan fics! Hello??!!

oh and NO flames. Please. Thank you. Have a lovely day.

~* Tai*~

"Hey, Tai!" Someone shouted my name, as I slowly walked home from my soccer practice, thinking if I should call Matt or not. We had a fight earlier and it left us both angry at each other. We had plans of hanging out at his place, and just chilling. His dad wasn't home, so it worked well.

I stopped and turned around to see Davis running up to me. I smiled, always having the time to speak to the younger digidestined kids. Besides that and I was Davis' role model. Don't I feel the love?

"Hey, Davis what's up?" I replied, as he came up to me and didn't even bother to catch his breath-- He was in soccer, ya know.

"Nothing really, I was sort of wondering, what is up between you and Matt?" Davis asked, as we started to walk. He gave me a side long glance. "You two seem to fighting a lot lately. Sora commented something like how it reminded her of the time when you guys were in the Digital World."

I sighed, remembering the days well. Man, did he have a temper. And I'm sure mine didn't help out either.

I wasn't sure what was up with him. He had been so moody lately and every time I had asked him what was wrong, he'd bite my head off. And to be honest, today's earlier fight was about him biting my head off every time I asked him what was wrong.

"Tai?" Davis questioned, his hand on my arm.

I blinked, suddenly remembering that Davis had asked me a question and we were walking home. Only I had stopped walking, preoccupied with my thoughts.

"Uh, sorry, about that Davis." I said, smiling a little. I then frowned. "To be honest, Davis, I am not sure what is up with Matt. He's been rather moody lately, and every time I ask him what is wrong, he bites my head off." I answered. I shrugged.

"So, your guess is good as mine." Then he realized he had asked what was up between Matt and I. And I had answered it wrongly, or not really answering it.

Davis stared at me, waiting. He sighed and said, "Tai, have you tried to talk to him without asking him what is wrong?"

I blinked. Davis made sense. "Um...no."

"Then maybe you should." Davis paused, his head tilting to the side, his hand on his chin. "Or better yet, don't say anything. Go back to being friends like you were, and I bet he'll tell you all in good time."

I blinked again. Davis was making sense. It was scary.

He grinned, seeing my expression. "Eh, don't be too shocked, Tai!" He laughing. "Think about what I said, okay? I gotta go!"

Before I could reply to that, he spun around with a back ward wave and jogged away. I stared after him, thinking about what he had said. It made perfect sense.

Matt was Matt. When he was ready he'd tell me. Otherwise, we wouldn't be best friends...

Right?

~*Matt*~

I flopped down on the couch, remote control in my hand, ready to be bored to death with no entertainment whatsoever. TV was boring and pointless, but I had nothing else to do.

Before I could get totally comfortable, the phone rang. I groaned, wondering who was calling.

I picked up the phone and mumbled, "Hello, speak to me."

"Hey, Matt, it's Tai." Came my best friend's perky voice. I rolled my eyes, wondering how he could be so upbeat at times.

"Hey, Tai." I mumbled, too lazy to speak any louder.

"Listen, do you still want me to come over?" He asked, and I knew he was trying to make up for today's fight.

To be honest, I felt bad as well. I shouldn't have yelled at him like I did. I sighed softly and smiled a little, glad he wasn't pestering about the fight, and trying to go on as if nothing ever happened.

"Yes, Tai, I do," I answered. "I'm bored as hell. . .bring some movies or some like games or anything! I don't care what, I just don't want to be so damn bored!"

He laughed. "Sure thing, buddy!" He replied. "Be there in twenty!" He hung up, leaving me to stare at the phone, a smile on my face.

There are times when Tai just irritated the hell out of me. But there are times when he knew what to do or say to cheer me up. Or when to leave things alone.

I know he was worried about me at times. . .I mean, I sure as hell was not easy to be patient with. I was stubborn and yes, difficult at times. But, that's me, ya know?

I guess I was mulling over this for awhile, for the door suddenly knocked, breaking me out of my reverie. I blinked, coming back to where I was. I sat up, remembering that Tai was coming over and that it was him at the door.

I made my way to the door and yawned as I opened it to see Tai standing there, grinning like an idiot. He had a bag of something and I was assuming games and movies.

"Hey, Tai, are you sure that was twenty minutes?" I asked, letting him in, smiling.

Tai laughed. "Yep, actually it was thirty minutes, but from the look on your face, you weren't paying attention; you were thinking." He answered, setting the bag on the floor and looked at me.

"Am I that easy to read?"

He gave me a look. "Only to me, Matt." He shrugged and added, "Only cuz I'm your best friend and I know you fairly well. . .Of what you let me know."

I narrowed my eyes at him. "Just what are you getting at, Tai?" I said

Tai sighed. He tilted his head at me, giving me a look that was hard to read. "Matt, I meant there are times when you just keep to yourself. I guess that's fine cuz I don't need to know everything. . .but there are times when I just wished you would talk to me." He said quietly.

I lowered my eyes, staring at my feet, thinking. Tai was my best friend, and he had been at my side ever since we first met, even if we fought a lot. It showed that he cared. And he still did.

Which made me feel even more worse. Here he was wondering what the hell was up with me and my mood swings.

My shoulders slumped and I sighed. "I'm sorry, Tai, it's just. . ." I looked up at my ceiling and I was ready to drop the bombshell on him. "There is a possible chance that my dad and I might be moving. He was offered a better position somewhere else." I paused, looking him in the eyes. "Like somewhere far off and I couldn't come to visit you and the others far."

Tai's eye's widened and his mouth fell open as he screeched out at me, "Moving?!"

I sighed and nodded my head, tying to ignore the hurt and shocked and surprise on Tai's face. I turned away and repeated, "Moving."

~*Tai*~

I stared at Matt's back, trying to understand what he just said. So I just repeated what he said again. Trying to ignore the shock of it and surprise of it. I was also a little hurt. My best friend moving! The idea was so. . .so. . .crazy!

"Moving!" I repeated, sounding like I was still trying to grasp the idea.

And I was.

Matt's shoulders shook and he turned around and I could see he was struggling his hardest not to cry.

"Yes, moving!" He all but shouted. "I said it, didn't I?"

I blinked. I could tell he was upset about this. I could see that he did not want to leave. I took a step forward and opened my arms a little. "Matt, come here." I said softly.

He looked at me and without arguing he flung himself into my arms and sobbed into my chest. I held on to him and whispered, "Matt, please don't give up, maybe your dad will change his mind. . .Maybe he won't take the position."

"What if--if he does?" Matt stammered between sobs.

"Don't think that way, Matt!" I chided him. "Have hope and don't give up! Things are bound to look up!"

But inside, I wasn't too sure.

* * *

"Tai?" Came a soft, concerned voice from my doorway.

I looked up from my bed and stared into the warm, brown eyes of my sister. "What is it, Kari?" I asked, listlessly.

"Tai, ever since you came home from Matt's this morning, you've been moping around and acting like you've lost your best friend or something." Kari answered.

"Matt is my best friend." I replied.

"But why are you moping around? Acting like he's moving or something."

I winced and blinked my eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about, Kari." I lied.

She glared at me. "Tai, you do know what I am talking about. And I believe I have hit the nerve. . .Matt is moving, isn't he?"

"Fine, Kari, fine." I snapped. "Yes, he might be moving and its a possible chance that he will. His dad got offered a better position somewhere else, somewhere else that is not here but far away."

Kari blinked. "You're serious, aren't you?" She said softly. "Oh, Tai. . . I'm sorry! I only guessed what could be wrong, I never thought I'd hit it on the head!" She sat down next to me, giving me a hug. "I didn't believe what I said until you snapped back at me. I was only guessing!"

"Kari, Kari! It's okay, I know you didn't mean to!" I said, closing my eyes. "But at times, you are so right about things. . .It can be scary at times."

Kari giggled a little. "Oh, Tai, what're we going to do?" She said a bit more seriously.

I blinked. "I don't want to lose my best friend, Kari. . ." I muttered. "Not now, not ever."

"Tai. . ." Kari suddenly pulled away and looked into my eyes. "We have to show Matt's dad that Matt has friends here. . .friends that know about the Digital world. . .If Matt moves how is he going to see Gabumon? It'll break his heart!"

I haven't even thought of Gabumon or the Digital World. But I bet Matt has. No wonder he was sobbing into my chest, he had thought of everything and anything that he'd miss if he moved away.

"You haven't thought of that, now have you?" Kari asked, a smile playing on her lips.

Damn her for knowing me so well. I gave a cheeky grin. "Of course I haven't, Kari, I was only thinking of Matt!" I answered.

She smiled. "You always did think of others before yourself, you know that?" She told me. "I think I have a plan in mind, if you care to hear it, Tai."

I looked at her. "Of course I care, Kari! C'mon, tell me already, I want Matt to stay here!" I told her, my voice rising a little.

"Okay, calm down, spazing out won't help any!" Kari said soothingly. "Now, here's what I've got in mind . . ."

~*Tk*~

"Tk!" Mom yelled, "Phone! It's Kari!"

I snapped out of my daze and blinked my eyes, forgetting that I was watching tv. But apparently I had fallen asleep. I shook my head and yelled, as I reached for the phone on the coffee table, "Okay, I got it!"

"Hey, Kari," I said normally and I heard my mom hang up the other phone. "What's up?"

"Tk, do you know what's up with your brother?" She asked, getting straight to the point.

I frowned, confused. Kari wasn't normally this blunt unless there was something up. And apparently that something was my brother.

"No, why?" I answered, allowing confusion to seep into my voice. "What are you getting at, Kari? Is there something that I don't know?"

Kari sighed. "By how you're sounding, you are missing something you don't know." She replied. "Look, you know how lately Matt has been moody and snappy, right?"

I rolled my eyes. "Yes, I do know he has been like that. I don't know why though, but I've a feeling that you do."

"Probably. Tai got it out of him somehow." Kari said, now beating around the bush.

"And Tai told you. Now you tell me."

"There is a possible chance that Matt and your father might be moving. Your dad got offered a better position somewhere else, somewhere far. Probably on the other side of Japan or whatever." Kari said softly. "Somewhere far as in he can't hop on a bus or train to visit us."

"What?" I yelped into the phone, not believing the news. "Why wouldn't he tell me?"

"Because you'd spaz out, Tk. Sheesh, there are times when you and Tai act so similar to each other, its scary." Kari said calmly. "Now, stop freaking and listen to my idea to how we can make your dad see how important it is for Matt to stay here."

"What's the matter, honey?" Mom asked worriedly, coming into the room, a concerned look on her face.

"Um, nothing, mom, I'll tell you when I get off of the phone with Kari, okay?" I replied, giving a tight smile.

She studied my face and after a few seconds, she nodded. "Okay, sweetie, that is fine with me." She answered and turned around to go back into the kitchen.

I sighed and said into the phone, "Sorry 'bout that, Kari. . . You were going to tell me of a plan?"

"Yep. . .and listen carefully, cuz I had to explain it five times to Tai before he could understand it. . .I don't think he was paying full attention the first four times I told him." Kari replied. "And I don't feel like repeating it another five times to you. . .So, listen up, okay?"

I laughed. "Sure, Kari, sure. I'm all ears!" And I was, as I listened to her plan, I started to grin.

The plan she had in mind had to work, it was completely flawless and perfect.

~*Sora*~

I wasn't too keen on the idea. I wasn't sure if it was going to work or not. But everyone seemed so positive about it, that I decided to jump on the bandwagon and be positive.

I sighed and shifted my wait nervously. I looked around the park, noticing that all the digidestined had showed up. Some where somewhat glum because of the whole reason of the picnic was to show Matt's dad that he had friends. . .friends who were the digidestined and who knew about the Digital World.

All were here except Matt, his father and Tai. Tai decided to bring them down and I don't think he told the reason why he wanted the two to show up. In fact, knowing Tai, he'd probably left out the whole detail about the picnic to Matt's dad and maybe Matt.

I wasn't sure if Matt was aware of the idea, but I haven't seen him lately. He has been avoiding me and almost everyone else. I don't hold it against him, he is probably trying to escape the pain of quite possibly losing his friends and didn't want to make it any harder on himself.

"I wonder what is taking Tai so long?" Kari asked, coming up beside me, breaking me out of my thoughts.

I looked at her and smiled a little. "Hey, this is Tai we're talking about. I mean isn't he always late?" I joked, trying to lighten up the atmosphere.

Kari laughed lightly. "Yeah, that is my brother. So like him to make us late. . ." She said but cut off as soon as she saw her brother walking towards us.

But. . .He was walking alone.

There was no Matt and his father beside him. And I could tell by the demeanor of his body, that he was clearly upset and that something had happened.

I ran up to him and touched his arm, saying, softly, "Tai, what is going on? Where's Matt? Where's his father?"

Tai had his hands shoved in his pockets and he had his head down. He looked up at me, his warm brown eyes filled with tears. That was when I knew. That was when I knew that it was too late, that Matt and his father had already moved out.

I pulled him into a hug, and he quietly cried into my shoulder. All the while saying, "I've lost my best friend, I've lost my best friend."

And I could tell that he was hurt. I knew how much Matt meant to him. I closed my eyes, trying to ignore my pain but to concentrate on Tai's as he kept crying and muttering his phrase over and over.

And all I could think of was, Matt why, why, did you go??

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, I hope you enjoyed that and has you wondering if Matt will come back or if Tai will be okay...

Remember no , no and NO flames. Positive reviews are what I like.

Please, please review!

Thank you so much!
