I know I know… I shouldn't start a story when I have so many stories that are not finished but I really like this plot so :P I'm getting back into writing so hopefully I'll update my other fics.

"Arrival"
A very annoyed Yamato Ishida stood at the airport lobby, checking his watch every minute wondering where the hell his friend was. His friend was supposed to be there to pick him up at 1:30 and it was already 2:13. Matt fanned himself with a magazine, acquiring looks from strangers. It was probably because he was wearing a trench coat and a hat on one of the hottest day in Kyoto. Or it could be because he kept cursing under his breath every time he looked at his watch.
Matt sighed and took a look at the magazine he was fanning himself with. He was a bit shocked to see who was on the cover. It was his ex. There she was, looking provocative in a scantily clad light pink lingerie with her hair in soft curls. She had a come hither smile, an expression he saw from her hundreds of time. She looked as good as ever, though it could be from the airbrushing. He couldn't believe it had been 2 years since he spoken to her. He winced at the thought of their last encounter. It wasn't a pleasant one since it was just a couple of weeks after their break up.
He found himself thinking about her more for the past week. His best friends were getting married and it got himself thinking about marriage. If they were still together, would they be married now? And she would for sure be at the wedding since she was the Matron of Honor. Is she bringing a date? Will she talk to him? Does she still have any feelings for him?
"I guess you really like that picture huh?"
"What?" Matt snapped out of his thoughts and shook his head a bit.
"You've been staring at that picture for 5 minutes now." The person took the magazine out of Matt's hand and surveyed it. "Though I can see why you've been staring at." The person let out a whistle, "I'd stare at her myself but I'm getting married soon." The person grinned.
"Sora would kill you if she caught you looking at that longer than 2 seconds." Matt joked.
Tai laughed at his joke but then stopped when he saw the glare Matt was giving him. "What?"
"You are over 45 minutes late! Why the hell are you so late?!" Matt yelled.
"There was traffic!" Tai explained. "At McDonalds…" he mumbled.
"You idiot. I've been standing here forever, drenched in sweat, waiting for your stupid ass." Matt fumed.
"But you at least you had something to keep you busy and help the time pass by." Tai teased and waved the magazine in front of Matt.
Matt snatched the magazine out of Tai's hand and whacked his head with it.
"Hey! I was only joking!" Tai laughed. Then he noticed Matt's unusual attire. "Are you trying to look like a terrorist or something? I bet its working cause a lot of people are looking at you."
Matt gave him a look. "I have to wear this when I go out in public. Otherwise I'll get mobbed by screaming teenage girls."
"Ahh, the life of a rockstar. How is that going?"
"It has its ups and downs. All careers do. You know, I'm all up for catching up and everything but can we not do it at the airport?" Matt groaned. "I want to get this coat and hat off. If it's possible anyway, it's probably melted onto my body by now."
"Okay okay." Tai laughed. "I'll help you with your suitcases." He picked up the guitar shaped one and hoisted it up his shoulder recklessly.
"Be careful with that!" Matt barked.
"I'm always careful! You have nothing to worry about!" Tai reassured him. He went down to pick up another suitcase and the strapped on the guitar case slipped off his shoulder and the case hit the ground. He gave a sheepish smile. "Oops?"
Matt rolled his eyes. It will be a miracle if he doesn't kill Tai before his wedding day.
Soon they were at Tai's and Sora's apartment. They set all the luggage and suitcases in the living room. Tai flopped down on the sofa while Matt desperately pried off his trench coat. He sighed in happiness once it was off and felt cool air hit his skin. "Air conditioning is the best invention."
"Amen to that." Tai agreed.
Matt looked around the apartment. It was quiet and no one else was in it besides them. "Where is Sora?"
There was a panic expression on Tai's face. But Matt didn't see it since he was still looking around the apartment. Tai's mind was racing to come up with an answer. He couldn't tell Matt the truth, not yet. "Um…" He never was good at thinking on the top of his head.
Matt stopped in his tracks and looked over at Tai, wondering why it was taking him so long to answer a simple question.
"She's… out." Tai said in an unsure tone.
"She's out?" Matt repeated, not believing him. He looked at Tai suspiciously. "What's going on?"
"Nothing! Nothing at all. I just uh… don't know where Sora is." Tai smiled nervously.
Matt thought Tai was acting rather strangely all of a sudden. Well, he always acted a little strange but more so than usual. Perhaps he shouldn't have hit him with that magazine as hard as he did. Speaking of which…
"I should probably move my stuff into my room before Sora comes home and trips over them."
Tai got up from the sofa and rushed over to the guestroom's door and blocked it off. "What? Why? There's no hurry."
Now Matt knew something was fishy. Tai is never that fast unless it had something to do with soccer or food. "What is wrong with you?" He pushed pass Tai and opened the door.
He put his luggage at the corner of the room and turned on the light. He furrowed his eyebrows and went over to Tai who was standing out in the living room. Matt pointed to the guestroom, "Why is there other luggage in there?"
Tai opened his mouth to say something but the sound of keys jingling on the other side of the door stopped him.
The door opened. Sora was home. But she wasn't alone, someone else was with her. And that someone was Matt's ex-girlfriend. The one and only Mimi Tachikawa.
Soooo what do you think of it? I know there has been other stories a similar story line but what's one more? Hehe, thanks for reading and review if you want.
