Title: Jealousy Games
Summary: Tai is dating a girl who is only using him to get to another girl, but that's okay because Tai is dating her to get to Matt. But Matt is with another guy named Rick, but what if he was only dating him to make Tai jealous?
I hope you'll enjoy this story.
It was Halloween and Matt wasn't particularly excited about it. For a full two months he had been planning this Halloween. He would 'come out of the closet' so to speak. He was going to dress in seductive clothing and announce to the whole school that he likes guys. He had decided to make it Halloween, so he could show them through his clothing. He couldn't handle having every girl that knew him want to date him and have no male attention. For as long as he could remember he was gay, ever since he had been almost molested by a friend of his. Sighing for the hundredth time that day, he looked in the mirror at his uniform. The usual, slightly tight gray pants, the black shoes, the stupid green shirt and white undershirt, how he hated this uniform. He was so glad that after this Halloween dance, they were going to change the rule, only on special occasions, do you wear uniform, unless you want to. He couldn't wait.
"Dad, I'm off!" He calls but then notices a note.
"Sorry Yama, but I had to leave early, I will most likely be home late, don't wait up for me. Oh and since it's a Friday, its okay with me if you want to spend the night somewhere, love dad." He sighed, ever since his dad had begun dating a woman, who he hated, he had changed. He no longer acted as if he loved him more than himself. He would be up earlier than usual to pick Cindy up, he would come home late, after dinner with Cindy. Before, his job had taken up enough of his time as it was, but now he hardly ever saw him, unless Cindy was busy. He sighed again and ripped the paper up, tears gathering in his eyes. Lately Tai had been busy too. He had a girlfriend now, Tina, and was captain of the soccer and football team. When he wasn't busy with school or sports, he was busy with Tina. He hated all this, that's why he was going to announce his sexuality this Halloween, so perhaps he could get a guy. However, it hurt that the one guy he had ever really loved was dating Tina. Sighing he was going through all of his friends' names, they were all so busy with their own lives he could have no one to spend the night with, no matter how much he wanted to do that. Oh well, he supposes, after all, after he comes out he'll be ignored like this for the rest of his life, he had better get used to it now. Finally he made it to his school. He walked not even halfway before he was pulled off to the side.
"Hey Yama!" He hears and sighs, so now he was going to be talked to huh?
"Hey Tai." He says and Tai blinks, having stopped and stared at him.
"Gee, why are you so down? I would have thought you would have enjoyed a surprise call to spend the night." Tai says and this time Matt blinks in confusion. Is that why his father said that? Should he?
"Unh…" He doesn't know what to say. Tai smiles and continues walking.
"Oh, so I guess your dad didn't tell you yet. He said it was okay if you came over and spent the night, since we haven't for a while." Matt smiled lightly, why not, it would be like old times.
"And Tina will be there too. You've hardly even met her well have you? She likes you a lot and wants to be friends with you." Matt's smile faded into a fake one, oh, so that's why he wanted him there, because she wanted him to be there. Oh well, he should bring someone too then. He snickered lightly.
"Oiy, Tai, can I bring someone as well, he won't cause any trouble." Matt smiles at Tai's confused face.
"Huh? Who? Do I know him?" He asks and Matt smiles.
"No, sorry you don't, he's a friend from a bar I visit frequently." He says, he mine as well start opening up now.
"Bar? Matt, you're too young to be going to bars aren't you?" He can see how confused Tai is right now. He almost chuckled.
"Sure I am, but does it stop other underage kids from going? Besides my band do regulars there." He states and Tai blinked over and over again, then scratched his head in confusion, by then they had gotten to the others, Kari, T.K. Sora and Davis.
"Hi guys, the others are coming soon too." Sora says and Tai is still confused.
"What's the matter Tai?" T.K. asks.
"Uh… wait… Matt, so you've met this guy at a bar? Are you sure it would be a good idea to bring him?" Tai asks and Matt hides a smirk.
"Well you'll have your girlfriend, why don't I bring my boyfriend." He says and they all fall anime style.
"Your…. What!" T.K. is the first to respond.
"Boyfriend, don't
worry T.K., I don't care if dad finds out." He then states and
they stare.
"Your gay?" Davis asks and Matt notices how he
looks at T.K., so he wasn't the only one with a crush. He smiles.
"And Davis, I wanted to talk to you for a moment." He smiles and Davis blushes lightly and nods as he walks with Matt over to the corner of the building. Just because he couldn't have his lover doesn't mean that he couldn't help another with their lover.
"Yea Matt?" He asks once they stop.
"So how long have you liked him?" Matt asks and Davis enflames.
"Huh? Who… like who?" He stutters out. Matt smirks even further.
"My brother, dork." He states and Davis enflames even more, his face was the color of a tomato. He chuckled, which made him blush even more.
"Tell you what. I'm going to set you up with him." Matt states and Davis smiles lightly.
"Huh? You are, really? But why?" He asks.
"Several reasons, one, I want my brother to be happy, two, just because I've experienced what it feels like to have the one you've fantasized about for years, slip out of your hands in a swift word. Three, just because I want something to do." Matt states and Davis smiles.
"So you do like Tai!" He smile and this time Matt enflames.
"Shut up, I have a boyfriend, or will have, a boyfriend now, so quit that." Matt glares at him and Davis frowns.
"What do you mean, will have?" He asks and Matt shrugs.
"A man at a bar I like to visit offered me love and I think I'll take him up on it. If Tai doesn't love me, than I'll love other men." Matt says, but Davis glares this time, he knew what he was doing.
"No, don't do it." Davis states and Matt glares.
"I will and you can't stop me. Even if it is for my body, at least I won't be a waiting virgin any longer." Matt states and Davis' eyes widens.
"You're a virgin?" He asks and Matt blushes lightly.
"Yes, alright, and no one can know about this talk, got it?" He asks threateningly and Davis sighs and nods. He sighs as they walk back.
"Alright, is everyone ready for that field trip to the digital world?" Izzy asks, they nod and they all begin walking up the empty stairs of the school. Tai and T.K. sharing a look, and Davis sending Matt a sympathetic look.
Matt smirked seeing his opportunity knocking to help his brother and Davis out. They were sitting together on a picnic blanket and the others were talking as well, but Davis was trying to get T.K.'s attention by giving Kari attention, which worked. Matt walked up and picked T.K. up, winking at Davis as he walked away with him. Davis stared confused and shocked, then noticed Tai glaring at him.
Matt pushed T.K. to the front of him.
"What's up Matt?" T.K. asks and Matt gives him a look.
"Spill it T.K., are you gay?" He asks and T.K. enflames, Matt smiles.
"Great, because I know a guy that likes you a lot." He states and T.K. glares at Matt.
"Don't bother hooking me up Matt, I know you've already taken the guy I want." T.K. says about to leave but Matt pushes him to the front of him again.
"I haven't taken any man T.K., because the man I want has been taken from me." Matt glares, his voice full of hurt and venom. T.K.'s eyes widen as he stares at the hurting and longing in Matt's eyes.
"Yama." He says his name.
"I agreed to help this guy because I know what its like to have your love slip through your hands. If I can't be happy than I want you to be. T.K., I will tell you who it is that I'm helping if you promise me not to hurt his feelings?" He looks to T.K. slightly pleading. T.K. nods, shocked at the turn of events. Matt smiles sadly.
"T.K., Davis is the most wonderful guy for you, he loves you more than anything in the world. All he wants is to get your attention by giving attention to the one he thinks you love, Kari. If you don't love him, than please tell him so he can go ahead and start looking for another." Matt states and T.K. gasps slightly and then smiles brightly. He latches around Matt.
"Oh Yama! Thank you so much, I love him so much!" T.K. smiles and then runs off. Matt smiles then leans against a tree, he wished so badly he had a smoke right then, he needed something to take his mind off happiness.
Everyone jumped in shock as T.K. came running out of the woods. At first Tai was going to comfort him because it looked almost as if he had been in a fight with Matt. But just as he was getting up he was surprised when T.K. jumped onto Davis, pressing his lips against his hard. He stared shocked, he was even more shocked when he saw Davis returning the kiss with passion and love. He blinked and looked up to see Matt staring at them, sadness and hate written in his eyes. What had happened? Matt then smiled as he remembered that he wanted his brother to be happy. But he couldn't get the memory of that guy kissing him forcefully out of his head. Tai walked up and looked next to him at Matt. Matt glanced to him, and then looked back to the two, who were now kissing madly.
"What happened?" Tai asks.
"Davis and T.K. deserved to be happy, they always have." Matt smiled and Tai smiled.
"I hope you're happy too." Tai states and Matt's smile fades away lightly and Tai frowns.
"Matt…" He drops his sentence off as Matt walks forward, away from him and to the guys in shock.
"Come on guys, we should all go and get ready for the dance." Sora then announces and they all nod and begin cleaning up. Tai is shocked to see Matt with dread on his face. He quickly ignores it. He didn't need him anymore, he had a boyfriend now and he himself had a girlfriend now. He sighed and hoped he could continue thinking that way through this day and night. After all he would be meeting the one Matt has chosen.
