Mr. Matchmaker

Two.

"Tai, pass over the cornflakes."

"No. Get it yourself. It's right in front of you."

"Tai!"

"You have to say that I rock and that I'm the bestest brother in the whole wide world. Also, you have do my laundry for a week-ouch, Kari! That hurt! Why'd you have to throw your slipper at me?"

"Pft. I'd rather eat mother's food than admit that you're the best brother in the world because you most certainly aren't."

"Here." Pushes box across table. "You're lucky that I even passed you the damn cornflakes since you 'slipper attacked' me. You should be grateful. Only the awsomest person would do that; and that person is me!"

"Right."

"What will make me even more awesome, you ask?"

"No, I didn't ask-"

"I'm going to kick a goal tonight against Tamachi and all the girls will come swooning. Just you watch, I'll be the ultimate pimp."

Thumbs up.

"Mmph."

"I didn't catch that."

"I said 'Mimi'. You know - your girlfriend?"

"What about her? She won't mind."

"With you being the ultimate pimp?" Eyebrow raises. "I don't think so. Remember that time when she slapped you with her pink purse for only looking at a mannequin dressed in lingerie?"

"Ouch." Rubs chin. "Yeah, I remember that. It was a painful experience."

"And I prove my point."

"Butt out of my life, kid." Folds arms together.

"You were the one showing it off."

"True." Sighs. "So how have you been up to lately, sis? This is the first time I've seen you at the breakfast table for a while. You're always skipping breakfast. It isn't good for you, ya know?"

"I don't skip breakfast. I have a brunch and that counts for both lunch and breakfast because I just really don't have the time when I have early photography sessions with the photgraphy club."

"Fine. Anything new besides your boring photography?"

"No."

"Funny because I heard some gossip yesterday. Heard it off two cute girls walking by. They said something about a new hot kid joining your class."

"So?"

"Do you think he's hot?"

"Tai, what are you trying to get out of this?" Picks up spoon.

"So he's ugly?"

"I didn't say that." Uses spoon as a weapon of mass destruction by threatening to throw it at him.

"So you think he's hot?"

"I didn't say that either!"

"Just what I thought."

"What? I don't like that tone, Tai."

"And you can't hit me with that spoon. I'll tell mother on you."

"As if she'll believe you."

Silence.

"So, you really think that he's hot-OUCH!" Yelp. "Really, Kari? Another slipper attack? I thought one was enough."

"Baka."

Knock Knock…

"Kari, get the door."

"Yeah."

Screech…

"TK?"

"Hey Kari!"

"What are you doing here?"

"It wasn't like I stalked you home yesterday. I just remembered the route to your house - that's all. I thought it wouldn't hurt to stop by. We can walk to school together because I'd really-"

"Let me get my things. Hold up."

Shuffle…

"Back! Tai, you're stepping on my school shoes!"

"TK, was it?"

"That's right."

Shakes hands.

"I'm Tai, nice to meet you."

"I know. I'm Yamato's younger brother."

"That's it!" Slaps hand on shoulder. "No wonder you look so familiar. You're Yamato's miniature twin! How could I forget? You're the guy that Kari thinks is hot!"

"Tai!"

"You think I'm hot?"

Smirk.

"NO!"

"Don't worry, Kari. I was only kidding. And Tai, you've actually got the wrong guy. The guy Kari thinks is hot is-"

Slap.

"Why'd you have to cover TK's mouth for? Aww. You're such a spoil sport, Kari."

"Because!"

"You do realise that's like an indirect kiss? TK's kissing your palm. Take note not to sanitise your hand so you can have his germs forever-"

Door slams in Taichi's face.

"That wasn't nice!"

(a/n) A bit longer for this chapter. I love writing Taichi. I've missed him. It was a good break to write this since my fingers have been bleeding by typing like crazy for my NaNoWrimo project.

To enzo: Thanks for the reading :)
