.: Between Friendship and Love :.By Yuka
.: Prologue :.
" Sora… "
" Stop it Yamato, stop it! "
Ishida Yamato wrung his hand impatiently. " Please Sora, hear me out. I didn't mean to embarrass you. I just want to show you how much I LOVE you. "
" What?! By suddenly come and hugs me and kisses me in the middle of a street? "
" But… but…Last night you let me kissed you, " Yamato said.
Takenouchi Sora look at Yamato disbelievingly, she shook her head gravely. " First, that was not in the middle of a street. Second, you forced me into it! "
" I… I…. That… But, I really love you, Sora…" Yamato said pleadingly.
Sora looked at Yamato, her eyes narrowed as she said in a cold voice. " Wasn't it a girl I saw you kissing last week…? At the Mall's fountain? No Yama…. Leave me alone because I know you don't love me… Don't forget Yama, I am the bearer of the crest of Love… You can't fool me…. Not me… " Sora ran hastily leaving Yamato with a look of astonishment on his face.
Yagami Taichi walked across Odaiba Bay bouncing his soccer ball along the way savoring each second that passed. It isn't everyday he got to see beautiful scenery like he was doing know. The purplish orange colour of the sky made Taichi realised that if he did not head home that exact second he is going to be late for dinner which mean too that his mother is not going to like it very much. So, he decided he should go home. He was just going to turn around and head straight home when he noticed an extremely familiar figure sitting on the white sand.
Taichi walked slowly approaching the ' figure '. He noticed quickly as he come closer that the ' figure's ' body was shaking slightly.
" Sora…? Is that you? " He asked his voice just above whisper for he very much afraid that he might surprised the ' figure '.
The ' figure's ' head jerked upward making her slightly red amber coloured hair bounced. Her tanned face tear streaked. " T… Taichi? " She quickly wiped away the remaining tears on her cheek hoping that this boy with his big bunch of messy hair (a/n: ** laughs evilly **) would not noticed them.
Taichi frowned. He did see the tears on his best friend's " What' s wrong Sora? "
Sora looked at her feet finding it suddenly a very entertaining sight. " Nothing… " She replied trying to sound as if nothing has happened, she repeated the word in her head as if it was a mantra, trying to believe it herself.
Taichi pursed his lip into a tight line. Dinner and mum would have to wait, he decided and placed himself besides Sora. " You know neither I nor you would believe that though I am very sure that a part of both of us do want to believe it, " he said softly trying to fight the urge to put a hand around the shoulder of the girl beside him. For comfort, of course, he explained to himself.
Sora turned away her face from Taichi avoiding his concern eyes.
Taichi sighed. He stared at the back of Sora' s head trying to decide what he should do now. He definitely did not want to urge Sora into talking her problem when the girl herself is not ready to do so for he already knew from experienced that it would only flare up a war between them. He doesn't want that and besides, Sora is a big girl now. She'd know how to take care of herself. Taichi does not want to infuriate the girl.
" Okay… I get it. You don't want to talk about it now. But, don't turned away your head from me like that, " Taichi decided to say.
Sora turned towards Taichi. " Sorry… " She managed to mumbled.
Taichi smiled. " Now, that's way much better… Just, Sora… "
" Hmm? "
" If you feel like letting it out of your head… You know I am ready to lean you a shoulder, " Taichi said.
Sora smiled. " Thanks, Tai… "
Taichi gave a careless shrug. " Nah… What are friends for if not to comfort one another, " he said cheerfully grinning.
Sora nodded in agreement. " Yes… "
" Uh… Sora, " Taichi said. " I think we should go home now. It is kind of late… Our parents would be mad at us… "
" Okay… "
Taichi stand and then held out a hand for Sora to grab. " C' mon… I'd walk you home… It is kind of dark now… "
" Thanks again Tai. "
" No problem. Go wash your face or your mother going to be curious about it, " Taichi said leading Sora to a pipe.
Yamato gritted his teethes. So, that was why Sora pushed me away. There's someone else namely Yagami Taichi. Okay, no big deal… It's not like Sora is mine anyway. Yamato narrowed his eyes at the so-called-friend. Best friend, indeed! So, this is what they are doing behind our back.
Sora was washing her face while Taichi was obviously making a joke for Yamato could hear clearly from his distance Sora' s tinkling voice which he, Yamato grimaced at. So, he admitted it. He did not actually love Sora. Not more than friends anyway. But, he do wanted Sora because he need her to get rid of the annoying Motomiya Jun and to that he has to have a girlfriend and then he hope Jun would leave him alone. So, the point is he wanted to use Sora. Taichi would probably kill him for that. That is if he knows. Taichi certainly does not like the idea of using other people so one oneself could get what one wanted and he for sure won't let Yamato do it, especially not to his own best friend, Sora. That is why Yamato isn't going to tell Taichi about his plan. And beside he wanted to use Sora… He could have a sweet, beautiful, and caring girlfriend. Who would not want that? And Sora was quite popular at school. She is perfect for him a band singer. Of course Yamato wanted her!
Actually, Yamato knew something about Taichi that other don' t know. That is the fact that the Digi Destinies leader actually has a crush on his on best friend meaning Sora. Or at least he used to have. Yamato doubted very much that his friend would still has it. But, then what was he doing with Sora? Yamato sighed heavily. Taichi was interfering his plan; he'd have to do something about it. He is afraid though that neither Taichi nor he himself would like it. Yamato grimaced, well, he'd have to do something about whether he likes it or not or he won't get Sora. Yamato sighed again, he don't actually like where all these is heading.
