I'll take Boys over Flowers
Chapter One
Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon and Hana Kimi or any of the characters...they belong to a bunch of other people I don't know that are VERY lucky. So all in all I just wrote this because I'm a loser, with nothing else to do. This disclaimer shall count for all the following chapters I write for this fic because I'm too lazy to write one every time.
Author's Note: Hey minna! This is my first Digimon parody fic based off the manga Hana Kimi. It will most likely have many chapters; I just don't know how fast I'll be able to shovel 'em out. I'm not sure if it will be drama or comedy but I'm thinking a mixture of both, with romance at the center. =^.^=

"Are you sure you want to do this?" a pretty brunette inquired, bent down on the floor while trying to get her best friends tresses to look shorter and more manly.
"I have to do this Sora! I'll never get a chance to meet him if I don't take some risks!" the other answered, her voice raising a few notches as she felt a sharp yank, of her hair. "Itai!"
"But Mimi...don't you think transferring schools just to meet a boy is a little much? Plus isn't it an all boys school?" countered Sora, a frown gracing her lips. She was worried, and her friend's complete lack of fear, made her even more so.
Looking down at her hands with a frown, Mimi sighed and said, "Maybe, but its too late now. I already sent all the paper work for the transfer under Miki Tachikawa. I can't back down now, it's just not an option." Feeling as if the argument was over, she gave a slight nod of her head, as if to verify her point.
Cutting another strand of the other's beautiful locks, Sora sighed in resignation, feeling the misery of defeat. "Mimi how are you ever going to pull off being a guy? You're the most feminine person I know!" the redhead urged, hoping to find footing in this already slanted disagreement.
"Well...I'll just have to try," Mimi responded quickly, wishing Sora would just let go of the issue. She appreciated her concern but didn't she already say it was too late to back down!?
"But all this just to meet that boy from that band?" Sora continued, as Mimi jumped at the mention of 'her' band and exclaimed, "But Sora! He's my Idol! If I meet him I'm sure it will give me the courage I need to become a famous singer! And maybe if I make friends with him he can help me get started with my career!"
Sora shook her head in anxiety, feeling a strange foreboding. "When your parents find out you are so dead, you know that right?"
"That's why they aren't going to find out!" Mimi yelped, grabbing onto Sora's shirt. Giving her a pleading look, she begged, "You...you just cant say anything."
"Shh. Shh. I wont tell a soul. But I'll miss you." Unnoticed by her friend, Sora's eyes were forming small misty tears, as she fought to control them. "Oh, I'll miss you too! We'll always be best friends!" Mimi laughed clueless and hugged her best friend. "You worry about silly things!"
"But it wont be the same...." The other girl mumbled, looking at her feet unhappily.
"I know it wont be the same but I just have to reach for my dream!" Mimi said, a sad expression dawning her face. Feeling for the small locket around her neck, she wore a faraway look in her eyes before adding, "Mother told me that if I don't fight for it, nothing would ever happen. I…I really want my dream to come true, so I'll do everything I can to make sure it does!"
Sora looked at her, noticing the shining appearance her eyes held. Sighing in complete defeat now, she sagged her shoulders and said, "Mimi...I'll do anything to help if it makes you happy." Mimi jumped into the air and tossed her arms around her best friends giving her a firm hug.
"Arigato! I knew I could count on you!"
***Riiiiinnnnggggg-Riiinnnnnggggg!***
Hearing the phone ring from downstairs, Mimi jumped up and quickly yelled, "I'll get it!" before bouncing out of the room. Sora on the other hand still sat on the ground, following her down the hall with saddened eyes. Sighing she thought, 'If it makes you happy Mimi...I guess I'll have to go with it. But that doesn't mean I like it...' her words answered by a gentle breeze that swept across the silent room, carrying them out into the night.

When morning finally dawned, and preparations were almost completed, two girls stood aghast in front of a mirror, both staring in shock, at the transformation that had occurred. From being a lovely, pink fanatical girl, Mimi had emerged from the room, her reputation tarnished, as she wore the traditional green and gray Odaiba High uniform, along with her newly cut hair. A pale hand, rising to meet her mouth, Mimi gasped in amazement, "Sora, I can't believe it!"
"I know you could actually pass for a guy! It's amazing what a change of clothes and a new hair style can do." Sora answered, equally awed and shook her head, trying to see if it was all just some weird dream.
"Sora you're great! How did you do all this?!" Mimi questioned, twirling around to see everything, as the other blushed and scratched her head. "Well...it was pretty hard cause your hair was so long and even now you're still a pretty guy..."
Mimi looked pensive, as she stopped twirling and asked, "Is there such things as pretty guys?"
"Umm...well...what about umm...Never mind don't worry as long as you don't act girly I'm sure no one will know...we'll just say you're a bishounen." Sora said laughing as she sweat dropped at the stupidity of her own answer.

To a stranger it would seem like just an average couple were seeing each other off at the train station but looks can be highly misleading, as the young girl wept, "Mimi I'm going to miss you so much..."
The girl had hot tears streaming her face while the young man fought back his own, ready to flow down any moment. "Sora...I'll miss you too and write everyday!"
Sora laughed, tears plastering her cheeks and scolded, "You don't have to write everyday! Just enough so I know you're alright!"
Looking at his watch, the Conductor blew his whistle letting out an ear-piercing signal that it was time for all passengers to board the train. "Sora I have to go now but I'll call as soon as I get there."
The two best friends gave each other one last hug and then Mimi boarded, waiting to leave her home for Odaiba. Hurriedly getting to her seat, she looked out her window and waved, while the train started pulling away from the station and yelled, "Sora I'll miss you! Take care okay!"
Running after the train waving her arms around, Sora called after her, "Mimi, don't forget me! I'll wait for you to come home!"
"Ja mata, Sora!" As she yelled her goodbye, as the train finally began to disappear into the horizon and Sora stood at the end of the station hugging her arms together saying in a low voice, "Mimi...be safe."
**Flash**
Small Sora and Mimi played in a garden, at the age of 10 years. "Mimi lets be friends forever okay?" chibi Sora affirmed, pulling more weeds from the ground.
"Right we'll always be best friends!"
"And we'll go to high school together!"
"Yeah and fall in love!" The two little girls started to laugh at this, before dropping the assorted weeds and flowers they had picked into a pile.
"Right we'll go to high school together and find love!"
"But most importantly we'll do it all together!"
"Come on!" Sora started to cross the street. "Lets go to my house!"
Unknown to the little girl, at that moment a car was backing out of its driveway, about to collide enter the road. "Sora, look out!" a frantic Mimi warned, running towards them. The car was heading straight for the little girl when all of a sudden a loud, "Sora!!!!" pierced the air.
Sora eyes widened with terror, as she was frozen in place, all her dreams and goals about to be wasted. All her dreams...Suddenly right before impact she felt a body crash into her own pushing her out of the way. "Mimi!" she cried before hitting the pavement. Next to her was her best friends body drenched in blood not moving. "Mimi!" She ran to her friend's side and started crying. "Mimi! Mimi! Wake up! Mimi!"
"Sora..." a tiny voice croaked, fighting to say what it needed.
"Mimi! You're alive!"
"Sora...gomen nasai..."
"Mimi...what for? You saved me!" Lifting her hand Mimi forced a sad smile and said, "Gomen Sora...maybe we wont be going to high school together..."
"Mimi! Don't say that! Of coarse we will!" the small redhead sobbed, as she felt the arms of an adult tug at her. "No! Let go! Mimi!"
"Gomen Sora..." With that, the girl's eyes fluttered shut and her breathing seemingly came to a stop.
Scratching at the person holding, she clawed and shouted, tears spilling down Sora's face as she screamed, "Mimi! No! NO!" And she cried over and over for her best friend's body that had suddenly stopped smiling. "Don't leave me alone..." she whispered, before losing what was left of her energy and wept.
***End Flash***
Mimi was in the hospital three months after the incident and the first thing she said to Sora after she got out was, "Gomen nasai, I didn't mean to make you worry!"
Feeling as if she we're the most terrible, friend in the world at that moment, a tender tear cascaded down her cheek as she remembered. 'Mimi...' Sora thought as she stood watching the train travel farther and farther away. 'Please be safe and become happy.'
-TBC…?
A/N: So what do you think? Its really just part of the beginning but I'm getting tired. *Yawn* my friend told me it sounded like Sora had a crush on Mimi in the story @_@ Ack! But she doesn't!!! Its just that the main character in Hana Kimi has an over protective friend too so I tried to make Sora a little like her ^^" Oh well hope you liked it.
