1- The Wedding-
"Meems, we can't let them go through with this!" a wild haired brunette moaned as he paced the lavishly adorned hotel room he was in. He was dressed in a black tuxedo and his hands were jammed into the pockets of his dress pants. His brows were furrowed over his worry-filled chocolate eyes. He was strong and lean; every muscle in his body rippled as he seemed to get more and more tense.
A lithe woman sat daintily on the edge of the bed, watching the man pace with her amber hued eyes. Her silky brown hair was styled fancily with baby's breath and pearls. She wore a short light blue strapless bridesmaid dress that showed off her womanly curves and long legs. She sighed.
"Taichi, what are we supposed to do? We were too chicken to tell them before, what will change now?" Taichi Yagami stopped pacing. With sagging shoulders, he turned to his friend with a sad smile.
"You're right, Mimi. I had my chance and I blew it. What good would it do now?" Mimi pursed her pink painted lips and stood up. Even in heels she was still only up to Taichi's broad shoulders in height. Gracefully, she walked over to him and hugged his arm to her chest. She hadn't meant to make him feel worse, but it was true.
They had sat on the sidelines and watched their good friends Yamato Ishida and Sora Takenouchi meet and start a relationship. They continued to watch it grow and flourish into engagement and now, today, marriage. Mimi knew Taichi had been dreading this day as much as she had since Sora asked her to be the Maid of Honor and Yamato asked Taichi to be his best Man. And now, the day had come. Too soon for either of them to prepare their poor hearts to endure the pain they would encounter on this day. They would watch the ones they knew they should be with, walk down the aisle with the wrong person.
"I know Tai." Mimi said using his childhood nickname. "I watched my chance come and go too…" She was trying to sound comforting but she just felt so pathetic. Sighing again, she rested her head on her friend's strong shoulder. Taking in his warmth, she closed her eyes. "Tai?" Taichi looked down at the woman holding his arm. "What kind of friends would we be to try and stop their wedding on what's supposed to be the happiest day of their lives together?"
Tai looked thoughtful and rubbed his chin with his free hand. Would it be so horrible? Surely it couldn't be like in the movies. There was no way if he objected and declared his undying love to Sora that she would find it romantic and beautiful. No, he'd be asking for her bouquet to be shoved down his throat and her high heels in his ass. Not to mention Yamato's reaction. He outwardly shuddered and shook off the thought.
Mimi opened her eyes when Tai didn't say anything. He seemed to be lost in thought. She tried nudging him, but got no response. "Taichi?" She tried again.
"Would that be better or worse than trying to convince them, after the fact they are married, that they married the wrong person? And we both did our part to show this to them?" She couldn't believe her ears. Shocked he tried to say something but nothing would come out. Surely she should say something to deter Tai from coming up with such a horrible plan to break up their friends' marriage. A plan that just sounded too damn appealing.
When no objection came, Taichi smiled slightly. Mimi just looked up at him with her doe like eyes, but those eyes said it all. She wanted to know more. And he's share his idea with her.
"We'll talk more on this later. We've got a wedding to be in."
The lights were dimmed in the ballroom and the air was filled with the song "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Bros. as the bride and groom danced alone on the dance floor. Lights reflected off the pearl beading on Sora's strapless A-line wedding gown that showed off her lean figure and soft feminine shoulders. She wore a veil that covered her short red locks and a light blue sash around her waist that was the same color as Mimi's dress. Sora was looking over her new husband's white tuxedo clad shoulder when she saw Mimi walk over to Taichi, dabbing her eyes.
"Would you look at that, Yamato!" Sora exclaimed softly. "Just look at Mimi and Taichi. There seems to be some chemistry there!" Yamato rolled his cerulean blue hues at his wife's comments. She'd been trying to set those two up for months now. But he humored her and maneuvered her around the dance floor so he could see her discovery. "Don't you see it too? Wouldn't it be great if they finally got together?" Sure, it did look like Taichi was holding Mimi's hand. And it did look like Mimi was getting closer to Taichi.
"Sure. It'd be great if they got together, Sora." Yamato replied, smiling at her. "It'd be about time."
"You alright, Meems?" Tai asked, concerned, for she still had tears running down her cheeks. He had taken he hand in hopes that he may comfort her some, as he was feeling the same pain. He too wanted to just cry and scream. But he figured, his friends would know something was wrong. Mimi wiped her eyes for what seemed like the hundredth time since the ceremony. She was sure she had no mascara on any longer.
"I'll be ok Tai." She managed to croak out. "So do you have a plan to go with the desperate thought you had back at your room?" She moved closer to him to avoid being overheard. Taichi had a smirk playing on his lips.
"Desperate, huh? Who's asking if I have a plan?" Mimi rolled her eyes. She was slowly getting a hold on her emotions as Taichi's plan gave her hope.
"I never said I wasn't desperate to. Hell, I'm as desperate and desperate can be. I love Sora and all, but Yamato should be with me!"
"And Sora should be with me." Taichi stated softly, looking a little sad again. Mimi touched his knee with a small smile.
"You have no argument from me on how it should be. I should be Mrs. Mimi Ishida and she SHOULD be Mrs. Sora Yagami." She sighed, looking aggravated. "I mean, not to sound completely bitchy or anything, but what do they even have in common? Yamato is a musician and manager. He smokes cigarettes, likes to party, and rides a motorcycle!"
"And that'd be perfect for you, since you're trying to start a career in music. Not to mention a model and the most fashionable person I know." Taichi added with a smile. "And Sora… She's the tennis coach at out junior high! She teaches tennis camp in the summer and helps her mother run the flower shop on the weekends. She's a health nut, so you know she'll expect Yamato to give up smoking and drinking for her."
"And Yamato will want to take her to parties… That's why you're perfect for Sora. You're a semi professional soccer player and you work at a gym part time. Not to mention you and Sora already have a history. Childhood best friends since forever, right?" Taichi nodded at this. "I know you would keep her happy and give her everything she ever needed."
"And I know you'd keep Yamato happy. You can sing, act, and make a hell ova good meal. So the question is, how did they wander so far from who they are?" Mimi sighed and shook her head.
"I have no fucking idea, Tai. It doesn't make sense at all."
"Well, my plan is to play to those advantages. You go to Yamato about wanting to start a singing career. I'm sure he'll be shocked at first, but work your magic. Seduce, seduce, seduce." Mimi blushed lightly and rolled her eyes. "I'm serious! He wants to go to a party, let Sora say no and then be the first to volunteer. Be the hottest girl in the room and flirt with other guys while you're with him. It'll drive him nuts. And you know how stubborn and possessive he is."
Yeah, Mimi did know. Yamato liked to be the one with all the cards. He wanted fame, fortune, and arm candy. Not that he was completely shallow; he had a soft side too, hence Sora. But, they were still young. Yamato wasn't ready to settle and have a couple kids. He was at the beginning of a great career. People were starting to notice him and his music. He had a reputation to uphold, and a baby on his hip was not going to fly.
"Yeah. You're right. So I work the fact that I'm young, single and hot- not forgetting talented in many aspects, and rubbing them in his face."
"Very good! I think you've got it!" Tai said chuckling. Mimi smiled.
"And what's the plan for you, Tai?" she asked. Taichi leaned back in his chair a bit.
"Simple. I'm ready to settle down. I make decent money. I'm ready to buy a house. I don't smoke and I don't go out to get trashed. I'm healthy and hot. I'll play the sensitive guy card. Tell her I wish I could find a girl like her and settle down. Surprise her by showing up at her tennis practices every once in a while. Offer to be her personal trainer. All Yamato has to do is push her buttons. Ask her to go out to another party with him. Tell her he's not ready for kids yet. Stay out late and come home drunk. It almost seems too easy." Mimi smirked and folded her arms over her large bust.
"It does sound like you have the easy half there." Tai ran a hand through his hair and gave her an innocent look. She laughed. "So when do we start?"
"Excuse me, more champagne?" a waiter asked, holding a tray of bubbling peach liquid in fancy glasses. Mimi and Tai smiled at the waiter, each taking a glass. Nodding their thanks, they turned to each other.
"We start after the honeymoon." Tai said raising his glass to Mimi.
"To Sora and Yamato." Mimi raised her glass, clinking it with Tai's. "May they find us so very appealing and want us instead of each other."
"I'll drink to that." They both drained their glasses in a fluid action. The pact was made.

Hope you guys liked it. This is my first fanfics that I've posted in years. I used to be under a different account as a teenager. I don't even remember it. But it was back when you could post really smutty stuff on . XD;;
