"Matt!" Mimi exclaimed as she raced up the stairs.
Matt shoved his hands in his pockets and turned around, "What?"
"I'm sorry."
"Doesn't matter. Life is too precious for me to be fooling with you," he said and walked
off heartlessly.
Behind him, Mimi fell to the ground with a flood of tears not to far
behind.
Sora waited for Tai's call. He had said her new barrette was ugly and she was waiting for
an apology. For a week she had avoided his phone calls. Her mom told him she wasn't home. He
hadn't even bothered to email her. *Stupid Tai* At her thought, the phone rang.
"MOM! Will you get that?"
"Honey, it's Tai."
"Tell him I'm not home."
The phone then rang again.
This time she picked it up, "What do you want Tai? Quit calling! I am sick of this phone
ringing. I am expecting an apology!"
"Calm down," Joe said, "How is he suppose to apologize if you keep avoiding him?"
"I dunno..." Sora whispered, "I can have fun without him though. Wanna go get some
pizza?"
"No, I'm allergic to tomato sauce."
Sora giggled, "Your kidding me."
"No...have you seen Mimi? She and Matt are into it again."
"She hasn't called me today...wait...her and Matt are fighting?"
"Yeah."
"Look, Joe, nothing personal but I gotta call Matt..." Sora placed the receiver down and
picked it back up. She hit her number three on speed dial.
"Hello?"
"TK, is Matt there?"
"Hang on."
"Yeah?" Matt said.
"Hey Matt, it's Sora," she smiled slyly and thought *I'll teach Tai not to ever insult
me*
"I don't see why you girls are so picky about your hair..."
"Looks who's talking!" Sora laughed.
"Well...so I like my hair..."
"I like your hair too, Matt," Sora flirted and reached out to touch his hair.
He leaned back in the chair, "That's okay, you don't have to touch it."
"Oh, Matt, I just wanted to see what it feels like."
"It feels like hair, Sora. Are you on something. If you are I could take you home and make
sure you're okay"
"Take me home? No...how about your house?"
"If you want.."
Matt's house:
"Please Matt! PLEASE!" TK begged, "I wanna hang out with you and Sora!"
"No, TK, she needs to talk to me."
He shut the door and turned to Sora, "Well, sit down."
Sora sat on the floor.
"Very funny..."
Sora stood up and sat by Matt on the bed, "Matt..."
"Yeah?"
Sora leaned over and began kissing Matt, "Unf," he grumbled. She pulled him on top of
her and put him between his thighs, "Can't you see us without this outer layer of clothing?"
Matt groaned and kissed Sora back. *This isn't right; she's Tai's*, "We can't." he said
and pushed her off.
"Did I do something wrong?" Sora pouted.
"Oh no! Nothing...you just...um...Tai. He uh is your guy and all and I'd really feel bad
if uh."
"Who cares about Tai...why think of him when you could have what you always wanted..."
"Hair that won't fall out of place?"
"No, a girl that will do ANYthing to please you..."
"Anything?" Matt grumbled.
"So what do you say?" Sora purred.
"Tai who?" Matt remarked and grabbed Sora. He slammed her on the bed underneath her and
kissed her savagely. He threw off his shirt and reached up her blouse.
"Ohhh, Maaaaatt," Sora moaned.
He reached his hand downward, searching and when he'd found what he'd been looking for
he paused to see if it was okay with her.
"Don't stop, Matt," Sora said and so he slid his fingers inside.
"MATT!! Have you seen...Sora?"
Matt stopped and looked at his door. Tai stood in the doorway. The look on his face was
one of disgust, shocked, and hurt.
"Tai!" Sora exclaimed.
"How could you do this, Matt..."
"I thought you two."
"Why should you care, Tai! You don't love me."
"Oh, Sora, how wrong you are. I love you with all my heart but...I'm sorry about your
barrettes...they weren't that bad looking," he said and ran out of the room with tears in his
eyes.
Sora slowly stood up *Oh, what have I done*
"And then I guess she thought Mimi and I had been an item. Sure Mimi and I were close
but I would never go out with her...she's all yours. Now I don't have anyone to talk to about
it cuz Tai is the one who knows my secrets."
"Well you're talking to me," Joe said.
"Yeah...is Izzy home?"
"No, he met a girl at Computer Camp last year and I think they are out somewhere."
"Who'd he meet?"
"Some girl named Julie."
"Oh..."
*beep*
"Hang on, Joe, it's the stupid beep...Yeah?"
"Matt! Oh MATT! Don't hate me please!"
"Uh, Sora...I am kinda talking to Joe and uh...aren't you going to camp this year?"
"No...please talk."
Matt sighed and hung up the phone.
"Bye Mom!" Mimi yelled from the doorway.
"Bye, sweetie, have fun in Paris. Is Joe going with you?"
Mimi blushed, "No, he made a 90 on his exam and is going to bring up his grade."
"Okay honey! Have a good time!"
She jumped in the car, "There is one place we need to stop."
Joe looked up from his book and saw his train pull into the station, "Two minutes late."
"Joe! Joe! Wait!"
He turned around and saw Mimi head for him.
She jumped into his arms and kissed his cheek, "Call me...I just wanted to say good luck
and I love you." she looked up into his eyes.
"Love?"
"Uh huh."
"I...love you too." he smiled and pulled away gently. He walked onto the bus and sat
down. He watched her walk back to the car and get inside.
*She loves me...*
Izzy sipped his Coke Slush and looked around, "So, looking forward to computer camp again
this year?"
"I don't think I am going." Julie said looking down at her dessert that didn't look too
appetizing anymore.
"Oh...really..." Izzy said sadly.
"Sorry."
He sat up, "Then I guess I'll be seeing ya." he said and left to cancel his place at
camp.
Julie smiled to herself, *You'll be surprised when I show up at camp. Surprise Izzy*
"Matt!" Mimi exclaimed as she raced up the stairs.
Matt shoved his hands in his pockets and turned around, "What?"
"I'm sorry."
"Doesn't matter. Life is too precious for me to be fooling with you," he said and walked
off heartlessly.
