I do not own the characters of digimon. Only the story is my own…enjoy
Matt Ishida was sitting in the park where he had last seen his best friend Tai. His hair hung around his face hiding his eyes which were overflowing with tears. He could still see Tai's smiling face on that day two years before. ..
"Hey Matt!" Tai called out running over to him in the middle of the park his hair like always standing up. He had of course tried to brush it to no avail. His dark eyes sparkled with an emotion Matt couldn't name.
"Hey Tai." Matt looked at his friend his own blue orbs sparkling with happiness. They had become best friends at the age of eleven after being sucked in the digital world. Since than they had both grown up. Now they stood together at age sixteen watching the younger digidestined run around playing games or talking on the grass most days that they all got together.
"come on I want to talk to you alone." Tai pulled him over to by the road and sat down on the side walk. When he noticed that Matt didn't sit down right away he jestered for his friend to do so.
"Whats up Tai?" Matt asked surprised his friend was acting strange.
"Its nothing bad." Tai smiled his bright smile and his eyes sparkled again like the sun was hitting them just right and Matt could see why Sora was always complaining about how his eyes could be so beautiful no one noticed hers. "I've been trying to figure out a good way to say this and haven't really been able to so I'm just going to say it. Somewhere along the way I found myself falling in love with one of the other Digidestined and it frightened me.."
"Why?" Matt asked him trying to get him to finish whatever it was he was trying to say.
"I don't think it will go over well with that person." Tai said then Leaned over and placed a soft kiss on Matt's lips causing the boy to gasp slightly.
Once Matt got it through his head that his best friend was in fact kissing him, he tangled his fingers in the unruly brown hair of the slightly taller boy and kissed back. After what seemed like an eternity they separated and stood. Matt pulled on his hand to pull him along however Tai pulled it to his lips and whispered he would meet up with him and the others in a moment and sat back down with a smile on his face.
Matt began to walk away and than heard a scream from one of the girls and turned just in time to see a car out of control and watch in horror as the man he now knew he loved and loved him was hit. Tai flew through the air and landed at an impossible angle. Matt shuddered and dropped to his knees..
A week later they had lain Tai to rest in a small grave in local cemetery and a cross had been placed at the sence of the accident. The Driver it was found had been drunk and should never have been behind the wheel. Since that day Matt had spent ever afternoon in the park with sad eyes and a broken heart. How long this would continue he didn't know and he didn't really care..
The only thought that ran through his mind day after day was what I wouldn't give for a second chance…
