I don't own Digimon.

Anyway, hi again! Here's Chapter 4. Sorry it took so long, my Honors teacher was expecting a different story for my project. Ha, and I'm sure she wouldn't wanna be reading this one. Well. I dunno. Maybe, if she was into Digimon or something. But that would just be...weird. She would just ruin my childhood. Sooooo, I hope you enjoy it! :)


Matt had started to walk Mimi back. Honestly, he didn't know what to feel for his little friend. She was so fragile, he thought. I'd kill the person that ever hurt her. 'Cause believe it or not, knowing that Mimi liked him, made him a tiny bit attracted to her. She was undenyably pretty, of course. But other than that... well, she was sincere about every word she had said. And he could tell by the way she had acted. He shook his head. Wait, what? He was engaged. He shouldn't be thinking of such things.

Mimi turned to him, but not looking him directly. "Nice talking to you again, Matt." she sucked in air and gave him her best smile again, as if the event 5 minutes ago hadn't occurred.

She's just pretending to be strong.

He couldn't help but smile back. She just had that affect on him. "Mimi?" he grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "No hard feelings, kay?"

She just nodded, "Of course not. I understand, Matt."

...

By the time this was happening, Tai had gotten inside his car and had just watched the two of them. Standing there. From where he was, it looked like Matt was holding her hand.

Pff. He looked the other way, not wanting to watch anymore of this. What the fuck is he doing? Sora's... his mind trailed off as he saw Mimi kiss him, on the cheek, from his peripheral vision.

He didn't know why he was so angered about this. Matt had already taken Sora from him. And now, when wasn't even sure about her feelings for her, Mimi? He didn't wanna take it anymore.

He started his car and drove off.

Screw them all.

Once inside his office again, he groaned loudly as he sat down, making a huge commotion. Izzy looked in, out of curiousity.

"Hey, Taichi, what's the matter?" he asked. Wow, that's a sudden change of mood. Earlier he was- Before Izzy could finish his thoughts, Tai leaned forward in his desk and placed his forehead in his palms.

"What am I doing wrong?" he asked to no one in particular. He felt like shit. Literally. Did he step on dog shit or...?

Izzy leaned against the door frame and looked at his clearly confused friend.

"I dunno, Tai. What are you doing wrong?"

Shaking his head, Tai slammed down one fist. "Damn it all, Izzy. I swear, I give up. I just." he paused, seeming to stare out the window and off into the city. "I just can never compete with that guy."

Seeming interested, Izzy walked into his office. "Who?"

"Ishida. Matt. Whatever they call him nowadays. He has the life I've always wanted. I just don't think it's fair. I don't know. Am I jealous? I'm not even sure anymore. I'm not sure about anything. I just know it's not fair. Whatever I do, he alw-"

Izzy glared at him. "Listen to yourself, Tai. You sound like a little kid!"

Tai glared back, but said nothing. He didn't want to admit it, but Izzy was right. He just didn't know what to do at that point. Izzy, not wanting to anger him any furthur, calmed down. He sighed.

"What do you even mean? You can have whatever you want. You're Taichi Kamiya, by the way."

Tai smiled to that, but his mood was still down. "But I can't have Sora." he finally said.

"Oh." Izzy felt awkward. "That... You still like her?"

"I don't know anymore. I think so." he hid his face in his hands. "And he has Mimi."

"Mimi?" he echoed. "What're you talking about?"

"If he wanted to, that..." he mumbled this part. "... could get Mimi. He just chooses not to. I don't know if I like her or not! Maybe I'm just feeling pity. God, this sucks."

Izzy didn't know what to say to his friend. He's never seen him like this before.

" ... You wanna come over tonight? To get your mind off things? Ken and I are meeting up at Davis's place. For, y'know. 'Bonding' I guess, according to Davis." When Tai didn't seem to reply, Izzy added, "Which is the same hotel Mimi's staying at."

Tai's head shot up. "What are you getting at?"

"Oh, nothing really." Izzy shrugged, grinning. "Just thought I'd let you know." he left the room without another word.

That guy, Tai thought, will forever be weird. But he smiled.

It didn't really take Tai that long to decide to tag along with Izzy. Soon, they were heading over to Davis's room hotel.

In the elevator, Tai couldn't help but feel like he was gonna bump into Mimi.

Pfft. There are tons of people staying here, it's 10 at night. Chances are she's already in her room, fast asleep.

But he still hoped for seeing her before the night ended.

"YO TAI!" a laughing Davis charged at him, "LONG TIME, NO SEE, BUDDY!"

Davis laughed and hugged him, tight. (A/N: Heh. Bromance. Just kidding. :] )

"Davis..." he scrunced up his nose from the smell Davis was giving off. "Mother of god, you stink! GO TAKE A FUCKING SHOWER, YOU ASSHOLE. HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE YOU-"

But Davis danced off before Tai could even finish.

"Geez, that guy needs to get a hobby."

Ken laughed at his minor joke and smiled at him.

"Hey," they greeted each other with that and headed for the couch, grabbing a beer on the way there.

"So, how's life fucking up you up this time?" Ken started.

Tai scoffed and took a sip. "Eh, the usual bullshit here and there. Nothing I can't solve." he lied.

The doorbell rang, Davis danced his way to the door. He seems uncontrollable hyper tonight.

"Mimi!" his voice went up an octove. "Glad you could make it!" a stupid kitty grin appeared on Davis's face as he wheeled Mimi into the living room.

She laughed nervously at this. She didn't know Tai was gonna be there. Plans were that her, Ken, Davis, Izzy, Kari, and T.K. go out to dinner. No one mentioned Tai. She sweatdropped, smiling vaguely at Tai when their eyes met.

Mimi. His mind went back to the moment earlier when he had seen Matt and her together. He clenched his fist, unknowingly.

"So, I guess you're joining us in dinner tonight?" she asked from the couch. "Where's Kari and T.K., by the way?"

Hmp. I'm surprised she's not asking for Matt.

"They won't be coming. Who knows what kids do nowadays." Davis winked.

Tai, not finding anything humorous at all, whacked him on the head. "Excuse me? That's my little siste-"

"I WAS KIDDING, I WAS KIDDING," he protested, "Geez, no need to get your panty hose in a..."

He didn't finish his sentence as Tai shot him a glare. Ken, Izzy, and Mimi laughed together.

"But anyways, I'll be joining Kari and T.K. in a bit. Last minute plans," he turned to Tai and half closed his eyes. "Sorry."

"Oh! And I almost forgot. Izzy, I think I may need your assistance in the office, in a bit. Do you mind?"

Izzy laughed, playing along. "No, no, not at all. Let's go?" he pretended to remember Mimi and Tai standing there. "It appears you two'll have to go alone. We already made reservations."

And with that. He left with Ken.

What just happened? The two of them thought.


Kinda boring, yes, I know... Writer's block. Finals for school coming up, so kinda stopped writing for a while. D: Review? Yes?
