Friends Can Be More, Can't They?
"Matt! It's time for dinner!" exclaimed Matt's mother. Matt was in the middle of a few instant messenger conversations, so he completely ignored her. Matt's main attention was focused on his conversation with his best friend, Tai. It went something like this:
Matt: Tai! Do we have any homework?
Tai: Uhhh, maybe?
Matt: You weren't paying attention, were you?
Tai: Nope.
Matt: Daydreaming again?
Tai: Yeah.
Matt: About what? You never tell me..
Tai: Meh, I just fantasize a lot.
Mat: o_O
Tai: NOT LIKE THAT.
Matt: C'mon Tai! Tell me.
Matt: Oh wait, I know!! Are you fantasizing 'bout someone?
Tai: Maybe..
Matt: I knew it! Could you tell me who?
Tai: Naw.
Matt: Well, I better get going! See ya later!
Tai: Bye.
Matt signed off, then went down to eat dinner. At the table, he wasn't eating much. He found himself daydreaming, but he didn't know why. He started out his daydreams the same, as always. He was lying in a beautiful grass field. His eyes were half closed, so his vision wasn't the best. He didn't need his vision, as the wind rustling through the blades of grass was soothing enough. His daydreams were always so relaxing, never alarming. He suddenly felt a hand caress his cheek. Matt quickly stiffened up. He turned to look at who did that, but..
"Matt!! You're not eating your dinner!" Matt snapped out of his daydream, half annoyed, half confused. He was annoyed that he couldn't see who the person was. He was confused, because he was fantasizing about someone he didn't even know! He quickly finished his dinner, then went upstairs. Matt tried falling asleep early, so that he might find himself in the daydream again. He was lucky.
Matt was again surrounded by lush, green fields. He was sitting up against a large oak tree, watching out for the person that had touched his cheek. A small quiet voice escaped from the other side of the tree.
"Do you really want to know who I am?" The voice sounded familiar, but Matt couldn't quite recall whose it was.
"Y.. Yes, I do.."
"Close your eyes." Matt obeyed the voices command, and closed his eyes, not daring to peek. Suddenly, a warm breath danced across his lips, and Matt suddenly shot straight out of bed. He was even more confused than before. Completely confused. He didn't know how, but he managed to drift off into sleep for the rest of the night, dreamless.
The next day, Matt was walking to school, and Tai ran up behind him. Tai always had a goofy grin on his face, and today was no different.
"Hey, what's up, Tai?"
"Hey Yama. Nothing much, you?" Matt shivered at the name Yama. It was just a nickname that he had acquired, but it seemed to have strange effects on him.
"Oh, I'm fine." replied Matt. Both of them walked to school and met up with the rest of the gang. Everyone was sitting in a circle, and there seemed to be a serious situation going on. Everyone was silent. In the middle of the circle was Tai's sister, Kari. She started to say something.
"T-Tai.. I have something to tell you and Matt. Me and T.K. are going out." Tai hugged his sister and said that that was awesome, although he thought she was pretty young for dating. Matt was giving T.K. some sort of handshake, complimenting him or something. Matt slapped Tai on the back.
"Guess we'll be seeing a lot more of each other, eh?" Smiled Matt.
"Actually, you will see a lot more of each other, very soon. Me and T.K. are having a sleep over at Matt's house, and Mom and Dad said you have to come." said Kari, looking at Tai. Tai just shrugged and gave her an "okay" look. The school bell rang, and the gang split up.
Tai had science with Matt, and the both sat together. Matt found himself staring at Tai.. He didn't know why, but Tai just seemed so.. Stare-able. Like that was a word. Tai glanced at Matt and caught Matt staring at him. Matt felt really embarrassed, yet he didn't know why. Matt didn't look at Tai for the rest of the class.
Lunch was the same. Matt wandered of to a tree to sit under, and Tai sat with the rest of the group. Tai decided to change things up a little bit, and went with Matt to eat lunch with him.
"What are you doing here?" asked Matt. Matt was surprised Tai came. He usually at lunch alone, under this big old tree.
"Why does it matter. Don't you want me here?" These words stung Matt a bit. Matt never realized how cruel he had come across to Tai.. He wondered why this always was. He tried to shrug it off, but couldn't really.
"Well, Matt. I'm going to eat with you anyways!"
"I'm sorry if I came off rude, Tai. I just don't usually have company.. Thanks.." The boys stared at each other for about a minute, although it seemed like an hour. Then they ate their lunches, quite silently.
Matt, Tai, and their siblings walked over to Matt's house for the sleepover. It was snowing lightly, but the snow picked up as soon as they got inside.
"I'm glad we got home so quick! It's snowing pretty hard out there!" said Matt. There was a tinge or worry in his voice, but not very noticeable. Matt motioned for Tai to follow him up to his room, so they could get away from their siblings. Tai looked around Matt's room. It was pretty messy.
"Oh crap! I forgot to bring my sleeping bag!" exclaimed Tai.
"Don't worry about it, you can share a bed with me." replied Matt. Matt didn't mean anything by this, but quickly realized how that must of sounded to Tai. He blushed a deep shade of scarlet.
"Okay!" Tai beamed. Matt was glad Tai didn't take it the wrong way.
Hours passed, and after the four of them finished watching a movie, it was time for bed. Kari and T.K. settled themselves downstairs, Matt and Tai being upstairs. Matt stripped down to his boxers, shaking from Tai's watching eyes. Tai did the same, and Matt couldn't help find himself looking at Tai either. They both slipped into bed, and Matt fell asleep quickly.
Matt was once again in his daydream. He was surrounded by grass. Once again, a hand reached out to his face, and Matt looked up to see who it was coming from. Two big, brown eyes stared back into his. The person who was touching Matt's face was Tai!!
"T.. Tai..? Why.. What are you doing?" Matt spoke out in his daydream, half knowing that it wasn't really Tai he was talking to.
"Don't you get it! I'm the on you've been fantasizing about!"
"What.. Am I really.." Matt awoke from his dream, to find that Tai was still asleep.
Matt shifted from his sleeping position so he could sit upwards and think. His thought's were very clouded.
*That was a really weird dream! What could it possibly mean? I always knew Tai was my friend, but what if.. Oh my god, I think I want Tai as more than a friend..*
"I.. I think I'm in love with him.." Matt's eyes widened! Did he just say that out loud? He turned around to check if Tai was still sleeping. Once again, two brown eyes stared back at him.
"In love with who?" questioned Tai. Tai looked down at his waist, and found Matt's hand lying upon it.
"I.. I think I'm in love with you.." Tai picked up Matt's hand from his waist, and kissed it gently.
"You don't know how long I've been waiting for you to say that!"
"WHAT! You mean, you actually feel the same way about me?" Matt almost fell out of the bed. This was too good to be true, stuff that only happens in dreams, or fairy tales.
"Yup. I thought it was obvious, the way I'm always trying to talk to you, to be with you.." Tai moved forward, pressing his lips softly against Matt's. Matt was shocked, but managed to kiss back a little.
"Wow.. I like that Tai.. I like that a lot. Thank you, lots.." Matt bit his lip, and wondered if he should voice his next thought.
"Would it be okay if we went out?" Matt asked, almost stuttering.
"I would love that." They both smiled and laughed a little, then fell asleep.
