***********************************************************************

Everybody's got something
They had to leave behind.
One regret from yesterday
That just seems to grow with time.

It was Taichi's and Sora's wedding day, and Yamato was Taichi's best
man. He knew he should be happy for Taichi, but he wasn't. And he didn't
know why! Maybe it was because of his feelings for Sora. No that wasn't
it. Yamato knew exactly who and what made his heart so heavy. It was
himself, for letting the girl he loved slip through his fingers. Ever
since she left, his heart seemed to break more and more each day. She
was the light of his life, and still is. And if he........ no, she would
never forgive him for what he had put her through.

Turning his thoughts to other matters, Yamato was wondering who the maid
of honor was. It was supposed to be Mimi, but last minute business had
come up and she couldn't make the wedding. Sora had refused to tell
anyone but her bridesmaids who it was, and they wouldn't tell either!
And the new maid of honor hadn't been able to make the dress rehearsal
for the ceremony. Leaving everyone in suspense. Yamato was sure if

It was no use he couldn't get his mind off her.

/There's no use looking back or wondering
How things could be now or might have been
All this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go /

Yamato could still remember when he met her. She was an old soccer pal
of Sora's who had moved away a year before the first adventures in the
Digital World. She had moved back shortly before Sora's fifteenth
birthday. Yamato had met her at Sora's party and they became quick
friends, sharing a lot of the same interests. Of course, Yamato only
cared for her as a friend back then. He had only feelings for Sora who
was, of course, dating Taichi. They started dating, but a few months
later, Sora and Tai broke up and Yamato jumped at the chance to date the
girl who had, at the time, captured his heart. She had understood and
they remained friends.

I never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I'll pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby

And now here he was. His heart was breaking over a girl he hadn't seen
in years. A girl whose heart he had broken many years ago. The girl who
really stole his heart.

"Hey, Yamato," a voice startled Yamato out of his thoughts. It was his
brother, Takeru. "The girls should be here soon. As the best man, you
need to stay with Taichi. Make sure he doesn't try to peek at the
bride." he said with one of his infamous grins. The lucky dog, he was
already engaged to Hikari. They were going to be married next year. It
seemed like Yamato was the only one without a girlfriend. Mimi and Jyou,
Miyako and Ken, Daisuke and his girlfriend Sakura, Koushiro and his
British girlfriend Holly, and Iori and his girlfriend whom Yamato hadn't
met yet. He was the only one single in the entire gang.

Never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be with you

She was the thought that filled up his day. She kept him going. Yamato
knew that he would love no one else. She was his soul mate, his other
half. He made a resolution. After the wedding he would search to the
ends of the Earth to find her and beg forgiveness. And then... Who was
he kidding? He couldn't leave Japan. He had responsibilities here. If
only he hadn't made that mistake. If only he hadn't been so blind. If
only.....there were so many if only's when it came to her.

Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all sense of time
And tomorrow can never be
Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind

He could remember the day she told him she was leaving. It was shortly
before they started their last year of high school.

***Flashback***

"Hey, Yamato!" a voice shouted from behind him. It was the voice of his
best friend. He had never been happier. He had secured a part time job
to earn some extra money, Sora was his girlfriend, his best friend was
one of the greatest girls, and it was soon going to be his last year of
school before college. Nothing could go wrong.

Little did he know the news that awaited him.

"Hey!" he greeted when she caught up to him. Her bright green eyes
sparkled with happiness.

"Yamato, my dad's been transferred to America! Isn't that great! I'll
get to study in America! It's my dream come true!" she said. Her musical
voice was filled with excitement.

There's no use looking back or wondering
How it should be now or might have been
All this I know but I still can't find ways to let you go

Her announcement hit him like a brick wall. How could this be? His best
friend ..... leaving? "Yeah,"he smiled weakly," that's great.

***End Flashback***

She had been so excited. He couldn't let her spirits fall. They had
written each other at first, but they soon lost touch. Shortly after she
left, Sora broke up with him to be with Taichi. And here he was at their
wedding.

"Yamato, it's time to get into place." announced Jyou, who wasn't in the
ceremony. Yamato nodded his head in acknowledgment and took his place
behind Koushiro. The mysterious maid of honor took her place beside him.

"Hello, Yamato. Long time no see." she whispered. Yamato turned his head
in surprise. He recognized those brilliant green eyes, that light brown
hair, that warm smile. It was her.

"Har ... Harmony?" He managed to croak out. She nodded before signaling
it was almost time to go.

I never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I'll pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
Never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be

Here she was. The woman who stole his heart, Harmony. He should have
known Sora would ask her to take Mimi's place. Who better than her
childhood best friend. He had so many things to tell her. And he had to
ask for forgiveness.

You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes you will say you will you know you will oh baby
You'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back or wondering
Because love is a strange and funny thing
No matter how I try and try I just can't say goodbye
No no no no

Harmony was his dream. He would, no ... could never forget her, no
matter how hard he tried. He never knew how much he loved her until she
was gone, and now here she was. Walking down the aisle with him at
Sora's and Taichi's wedding. Best man and maid of honor. Love had given
him a second chance. This time, though, he wouldn't say goodbye.

The ceremony flew by not only for the bride and groom, but the best man
too. At the party, Yamato managed to ask Harmony to dance. While they
were dancing they caught up on what had happened with them over the past
few years.

"Harmony, will you ever for give me?" Yamato finally asked.

"For what?" she responded.

"For dumping you just so I could date Sora, for practically using you,
for not keeping in touch with you, for letting you go, for being such a
jerk, for just everything!"

Harmony just laughed. "You're right. You were a jerk."

"Well, do you forgive me?"

A part of me will always be with you

It was only a few seconds, but to Yamato it seemed like time had stopped
before she gave her answered.

"I do."
