HI! another story! hehe.. don't worry i'll finished the other storys, too. but i had to post this or at least the first chapter. I started to think about this story in january with my best friend and she like made me post it. this is just the first chapter. so be nice with the review ok? HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

"Mimi, please

"Mimi, please. Don't do this again…"

"Sora, I'm sorry…" Sora couldn't believe this. She was doing it again.

"Please, Mimi. Don't go. Stay!" she was begging. She didn't want her to leave for who knows how long and who knows where.

"I can't stay. You know I can't"

"Yes you can! You just don't want to stay. You want to go away and forget right?" there was a silent on the other line.

"Mimi?" asked Sora worriedly.

"Hn" was the only answered she received. No. Mimi was crying again. She was so tired of hearing her cry. It was not her fault, things happened and sometimes they are not good. But she was tired of hearing her cry on the cell phone. She would like it better when her friend would stay with her and cry with her around. It was easier to forget that way. It was easier to keep walking. It was easier to get over it but no, not for Mimi. Mimi liked to do it her way, running away. Yes, every time at every problem she couldn't handle alone or it would show up her weakness, she run away. That way she could figure it out things for herself.

"You can't be always running away from things. Did you hear me?" Mimi did not reply. Sora could hear nothing but the wind that was probably getting into the car because of middle opened window.

"Sora, I have to hang up now. Talk to you later ok? I'll call you once I got where I need to go"

"No Mimi, don't hung up. Mimi! Just don't—"too late. Mimi had already hung up. She just could hear the deadline tone.

"What the hell are you going to do now?!" yelled Sora at her phone.

"Me? Nothing really, just watches a movie" said a man voice behind her,

"Not you! I was talking about Mimi!"

"Did she run away again?" asked a second voice coming from the kitchen.

"Yes, Nate. She did."

"What are you going to do now?"

"I don't know Christian, I really don't know. She never says where the hell she is going"

"She never does know, actually" said Nate taking a seat next to Sora in the couch.

"What do you mean by that?" asked a clueless Sora.

"God, I love when you make that face! Isn't she lovely, Nate?" said Christian is his typically gay voice.

"Yeah… she is lovely!" confirmed Nate.

"Guys, hello? I'm still waiting… what did you mean by that?"

"Oh right… well, I know Mimi pretty well you know and of all of this years being right next to her as her shopping buddy, facial treatments and gym... In good and bad times—"

"C'mon I don't have the whole night!" yelled Sora to Nate and his long fairytale that obviously no one cared cutting him off and also punching him playfully on his arm.

"Ok, ok! Well the point is… that even if Mimi is the greatest thing that God could giving a gay guy, I mean me of course, after you my lovely Christian" added Nate after seeing Christian frowning "she'll never know where will she go when she is in the middle of a crisis. What I'm trying to say is that she will just follow the wind and try to find self trust again."

"So what you mean is that she jumps in her car and just drive till she decided that she must go home?"

"Basically, yes."

"So you don't know when then…"

"No but she can leave without me, so maybe in a month she'll be back this time"

"What?!" Sora almost fainted "Last time I had a business trip and because of that I couldn't stop her before running away but you said she was back two days after!"

"Sora, please calm down! If there something you must know about Mimi is that we cared about her a lot and her life has not been as pleasant as we had wished her these last 6 years" said Christian trying to calm her. It was true. Mimi hadn't had the luck they have all wish her in these past years.

"After they parents got the divorced"

"She was fifteen years old" reminded Christian interrupting Nate story. Nate gave him a 'shut up' glare and continued.

"She made the best out of her so they parents got back together. But after two years of trying she discovered that his father got a whole new family. Then is when thing started to go wrong."

"Hey… Nate. I don't think Mimi wants us to tell her the whole story. Maybe it would be better for her if she just personally tell Sora how it was." Both of them turned to look at Sora after discussing that they would keep they mouth shut till Mimi decided it was time to share with Sora her pity. Sora looked depressed.

"Hey honey, what's wrong?" asked Nate.

"I know a few things about her. That they parents got divorced and her mother died; that she had a boyfriend before we met two years ago and he screwed thins up with her, sleeping around with another girl. Also that Mimi introduces you guys to each other. And that she hates about talking about her past, but the thing is… that I only know a few things about her and not everything like it is supposed to be. We are supposed to be best friends and instead of letting me be near of her she pushed me away when she needs me the most" Sora was sobbing now. She could not understand why it hurt so much.

"Remember who we are dealing with. Mimi hates that others feel pity for her. She hates causing others problem. You know why she is always smiling?" said Christian this time.

"…After running away?"

"Yes"

"No."

"Because it makes us happy"

"Huh?"

"You see. What happened after a cloudy rainy day?" asked Nate trying to explain Christians' point.

"Everything is wet?" said Sora automatically.

"Yeah but I'm not talking about what happens after the rain falls. I was talking about what happens with the sky?"

"Huh?" God… she really didn't know?

"Well, the sun rises up again" added Christian kind of tired of making Sora understand their philosophy. Anyway she was a more practically girl. She did not Philosophy as Mimi, Nate or Christian did.

"So…?"

"What my dear lover is trying to say to you is that Mimi is the sun. She disappears with the storm and reappears when everything is over. She'll be fine. At the end, she'll be always our sun." and with that, ended Nate the discussion about Mimi.

"I'll never understand you guys… philosophy… right" said Sora, resting her jaw on her Hand. She looked very thoughtful.

"So… what movie are we going to watch today?"

"Guys?" both of them looked at Sora. They all were sitting in the couch now "I have a great idea…" said Sora amazingly happy and exited. Nate and Christian were surprised with the sudden change of humor in Sora. So they paid attention to what she had to say.


somewhere else...

"Hey Matt, how is the investigation going?"

"It would be better if you were helping me, you know?"

"I don't think sitting on a bar at 11 pm will do some good to our investigation!" said Tai sitting right next to Matt at the bar. The barman gave Matt his beer. He drinks it down.

"Dude, please, take it easy! I hope you didn't bring your car because if you did, man, you are going to have to leave it in the park lot!"

"I'm fine"

"What's wrong Mattie?"

"Don't call me Mattie"

"Ok, then… What's wrong Mattie?" asked Tai again with a sluttish horny voice.

"God, Tai… shut up! You make me wanna throw up."

"What? I'm just calling you how your beautiful and sluttish girlfriend call you."

"Brianna is not a slut!" said Matt trying to defend her girlfriend.

"C'mon she is nothing but a slut!" said Tai trying to make his best friend understand. Matt didn't reply. "You know… I believe that's why you always end up in this bar drinking after work"

"I'm not an alcoholic, dude"

"I'm not saying you are but maybe you'll become one if you keep drinking that much before going home to a crazy bitch, who does not use her brain once in a while…!" said Tai mimicking Brianna. Matt laughed. Tai just only smiled.

"Yeah… maybe you are right. I should better dump her" said Matt while pointing to the barman for another beer.

"GOD! Thank you! Matt finally realized that his girlfriend does not worth enough for him!" shouted Tai in the bar. "Please, Ladies & gentlemen" said Tai standing up on the chair "pay attention! Here" said pointing at Matt "sitting right next to me, is a man who just has realized that he couldn't leave without his best friend, with that I mean, me." Some people just laughed, but the majority applause, maybe because they all were drunk.

"Sit down!" commanded Matt while pulling him down to his seat.

"Ok Mattie, I already did"

"You are unbelievable!"

"I know that deep inside, you love me!" said Tai over dramatizing it.

"If you only shut the fuck up, them I might love you" reply Matt drinking his 3 beer down.

"You know, we have work a lot lately"

"Hn"

"I was thinking… what about if we both take some days off… maybe a week or more. Then we could go to the beach or so. Just the two of us" Tai was smiling brightly. Matt frowned; damn… maybe he will become an alcoholic after all of this.

He asked for another beer "so we could…" no please don't say the T word "find some hot chiks and have lots of fun" ended Tai with a goofy smile in his face.

"Thanks, I really thought you were going to say something like 'and be together' but I like the idea of the hot chiks"

"Ok. I'll plan it but please you must dump the slut first"

"Done, I can't stand her any longer, anyway"

"Wanna ride?"

"Please…" said Matt ending his beer. Waving the barman a 'goodbye' and trying to walked and reached Tai who as now at the front door.

"Damn! I didn't think you were done with 4 beers" said Tai trying to help Matt.

"They were 4 beers, when you came in…"

"Damn… you really can't stand that bitch, can you?"
