Chapter One: Feeling Blue

Yamato jogged slowly at the park for almost half an hour already. He hummed quietly as he listened to the music in his CD player. With headphones covering his ear, he mesmerized himself with the song so that Sora's image would go off his mind. His feet brushed the leaves that kept falling from the trees and his eyes were glued straight forward.

Still not contented, he paused fo a while and maximized the volume of the music. Quite satisfied, he resumed his jogging and mimicked the song.

A small sigh went pass his lips. Wonder what's Sora is doin' right now...he wondered as he jogged slower. He wiped the beads of perspiration that keep sliding on his forehead with the back of his hand. Yamato got used to waking up very early and jogging was part of the package. He didn't know why he suddenly liked to jog. Guess it's because I want my mind to be cleared of Sora...he thought bitterly. Keeping Sora out of his mind wasn't easy at all. He was determined to forget her, and ignoring her was included in his plan. But it all toppled to pieces just because Sora talked to her in Geometry class.

She just talked to me...what's so special about that...

But it was too special for him, of course. He's just too scared to admit it to himself. After so long, Sora and Yamato had been able to talk once again just like before. But he knows what he felt that day was beautiful. How could he not forget her now? If he ignores her, she'd be angry at him and this would only trouble him even more. He sighed again and jogged faster, his hands balled into fist. You make me crazy, Takenouchi...too crazy...

After rounding the park, he slowed down and stopped under a tree where he placed his mineral water. After taking a breath, he pulled off gently the headphones and reached down. He grasped the water and drank it until it reached half of the bottle. He gulped down and released a satisfied sigh as he sat down at a bench near a tree. He collapsed down and wiped his sweaty face with a towel.

"Yamato?"

He casually turned his head and let out a small gasped as Sora walked gaily towards him. "Sora?"

She looked at him confusingly and planted a hand on her hips. "Why is it that whenever I call you, you say my name as if you're doubting if I'm really Sora?" she said, half-jokingly and half-disappointingly.

He shrugged and eyed her for a moment. She was wearing a fitted red blouse (which hugged her slim body and it made her eyes brighter) and blue denims. It was simple but Yamato couldn't help but blush.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"Oh...Tai and I have a date. I was just about to go there when I saw you." She said, eyeing his suit. He blushed. "I was jogging..."

She looked at her watch. "Need to go. I'll catch up with you tomorrow morning at school!" She yelled as she ran at the oppposite direction.

"Bye..." he whispered, hurt with everything that happened just now.

By Monday, Yamato groggily walked at the silent school, his head bowed down to the ground. He was early again and this isn't making him happy. An early bird again...he thought. He hadn't been able to sleep again. It was Sora's face that keep appearing in his mind that night. And all he ever dreamed about was having her in his arms and he wouldn't let go off her.

What's that got to do with reality? T'was just a dream. And dreams never come true...

He forced his face to look up and, not too far away, Sora was fumbling inside her locker. She closed it loudly and she turned her face to him. Her face was sullen and her cinnamon eyes weren't as bright as before. "Hey Yama..."

~~//~~

Sora muffled against his uniform as he caressed her back. "Please...don't cry..." She only cried harder and she pulled away from him. Her eyes full of crystal tears showed so much hurt. He gave her a friendly pat on the shoulder and flashed her his wonderful smile. "I'm sure he was just...busy..."

"I know I shouldn't cry. It's too shallow but..." she sniffled a bit as her shoulders shook. "But it just hurts so much!"

She buried her face in her hands and he hugged her back. "C'mon now! Is this the Takenouchi I've always known? A crybaby?"he said, hoping that the brunette would smile.

She sneaked a peek at him and she did smiled in return. She pulled away and laughed. "Yeah... Takenouchi Sora would never cry over somethin' so shallow..."

"That's the spirit. You shouldn't wear a gloomy face! Itscares people!"

She playfully slapped his arm. He laughed and gazed at her. His icy blue ones looked longingly at her firey red eyes. "You must always smile, you know that? You don't know how many people falls in love with that smile..." As he expected, she looked at him confusingly as he stood up. He brushed the dirt that hanged on his pants. "Better go...the band's been waiting for me..."

"Thank you, Yamato...you know, for listening to me..."

"No prob! That's what best friends are for, right?" With that, he left her. Somehow, Sora couldn't help the feeling but be sad all over again.

~~//~~

Cerulean eyes searched the cafeteria for a brunette, unfortunately, she's not there. Wonder where Sora is...

"This is not my idea of a good day!!!" Mimi exclaimed, attracting a few students near their table. She sat down in front of Yamato and placed her tray on the table.

"Hey Mimi...how's your day?"

"Ugh! Don't ask! It was terrible! I failed 2 quizzes today and I was laughed at Chemistry!" she said, munching on the fries one by one.

"Oh..."

"And that's not all! This...stupid,flirtacious...bitch stepped on my foot and grabbed hold of my hair while I was lining up in the cafeteria!!" she said between her gritted teeth, pointing a fork at Yamato. Yamato laughed. Same old Mimi...

Mimi examined Yamato's sad face. "Okay...spill it. What on earth is bugging you right now?"

Yamato just shrugged and focused on his food. "Well? You're not gonna tell me, huh? I bet if it is Sora...you'd tell it to her without having second thoughts because she's your best friends and I'm just - "

"Okay! Okay!" Yamato said at last. Mimi smiled triumphantly and leaned in closer. "Well?"

"I'm just worried about someone..." Yamato whispered. Mimi's eyes sparkled with excitement, like her birthday just came. "It's a girl..." Mimi squealed, attracting the students again. Yamato cringed. "Mimi, quiet!!"

"Aha! I think I know who's the girl..."

Mimi waited for Yamato to say something. "It's Sora right?" She smiled as Yamato concentrated on his food. "No, it's not her..."

"Yeah right! I'm just a few chairs behind you and I can see you sneaking glances at Sora. And during Geometry, you always feel uncomfortable and you'd totally ignore Sora." Mimi said, nodding her head in agreement. Yamato sighed. All that Mimi said was true.

"Yamato, do you like Sora? As in, really?"

This question struck Yamato hard. Without looking, he nodded. "Ne Yamato-chan, since when?"

"Long ago..." he answered cooly.

"You mean, just after our adventure?"

"Yeah..."

"Oh...that's too bad. Sora liked you so much at that time..." Yamato's face shot up and he looked at Mimi. "She...She did?!"

"Well, yeah! Are you that ignorant? Didn't you see that she was falling head over heels for you?" she said, rolling her eyes. "Then Tai came and..." she stopped when she noticed Yamato clenched his fist.

"Uh...Yamato...I know you don't like being asked but...did you love Sora?"

"Mimi, I didn't love Sora...I do love Sora..."

They both turned their heads together as Tai and Sora entered the busy cafeteria and sat a few feet away from them. "Yamato-chan, as much as I love both of you of Sora, I suggest you don't ignore Sora. She's experiencing a lot of problems lately."

Problems? What kind? Is it about Taichi? Yamato's head were full of questions but his mouth said nothing. He just stared at them, then at Mimi.
