Hello everyone, after another week, here is chapter 7! First off I'd like to thank everyone of you who's following and reviewing this story, it's good to know that this is actually going somewhere lol.

This is my favourite chapter that I've written so far... well, read and you will know why hahaha.

Disclaimer: If I owned Digimon this would have happened and we Taiora fans wouldn't have been complaining for more than 10 years.

"What is it Tai?" Sora asked me, confused.

"Get lost Yagami! We're trying to save our partners here!" Matt ordered, but as I said, I was completely ignoring him.

"It's time to tell you the truth" I started, I was feeling really nervous, I could have planned what to say or something, this was going to be difficult.

"Don't you think this is not a good time Tai?" she interrupted.

"No, it's now or never" Matt didn't say anything, he was just staring at me and it made it even more difficult, but I took a deep breath and started talking "You asked me the other day what was wrong with me and I didn't quite lie, it is true that it's you what's wrong with me"

"Huh?" she asked, I took another deep breath, there it went.

"But not in that way Sora, when you started dating Matt I felt dreadful, like my life was meaningless. That's why I started acting like that, my heart was broken. I tried dating other girls, but it was useless." She only stared at me with her mouth open but I kept going "With you out of my life, I only feel pain. Sora, I've known you since I was a little kid and I'm never going to feel the same thing for another girl, I'm going to say this because you have to know it, I don't care what your answer is, I've been holding it inside for 4 years and I can't hide it anymore" I only had 3 more words left and you can't imagine how difficult it was to spit them out, but after a couple of second, I finally did "I love you Sora Takenouchi, and always will".

After that there was only silence, Matt was staring at me with his mouth wide open, he couldn't believe what I just said. Sora had pretty much the same expression, but aftera couple of seconds, her crest started glowing fiercely. I felt heat in my chest, I looked down and saw that my crest was glowing with the same intensity. Then, the red light that came out of her crest hit me and I felt that my chest was on fire, but it felt incredibly good. After that everything was eclipsed with a blinding orange light that came out of my digivice. This was it.

Agumon warp digivolve to! WarGreymon!

The dragon warrior stood there besides me, it was incredible to see him again. WarGreymon looked at me and said "I'm proud of you Tai" after that he took off and headed straight to where Machinedramon was. Sora and I stared at each other for a while, but we both decided to look at the battle due to the extreme awkwardness of the situation. Machinedramon looked at what was coming for him and took a step back immediately, seeing that huge digimon scared was priceless.

"You! But how?!" he shouted.

"Terra force!" WarGreymon created a huge fireball in his hands and threw it to the dark master, it hit Machinedramon and it almost made him fell.

"How could you warp digivolve! Answer me!" he demanded.

"You're not getting that answer, you're going to pay for killing Leomon and Andromon!" WarGreymon shouted as he flew closer to him "Dramon Killers!" WarGreymon was way too fast for Machinedramon, so he slashed him with his claws very easily.

"No!" Machinedramon shouted before disappearing into data. WarGreymon flew back to where we were and he dedigivolved to Koromon before landing in my arms. Zudomon, MegaKabuterimon and the already dedigivolved Biyomon and Palmon did the same.

"You did it Koromon!" I shouted as I did a little victory dance.

"Thanks to you Tai! And well, you know who..." he grinned at me. A huge smile appeared in my face, I couldn't belive it, Sora loved me back. I had to talk to her, I turned back but... Sora,Matt,Biyomon and Gabumon disappeared. What I saw was everyone staring at me, and I perfectly knew why. Instead of explaining what just happened, I started looking for Sora, I really needed to talk to her.

"Sora! Sora? Sora!" I started yelling

"Tai what do you think you're doing?" Joe asked me, he sounded angry.

"I just happen to enjoy screaming sky in japanese Joe" I snapped "I'm looking for Sora of course!" Joe was about to answer when Mimi appeared and gave me a slap in the face.

"I guess I deserved that..." I said, rubbing my cheek "let me explain Mimi"

"Explain what? That you have been cheating on me with one of my best friends?" she was really mad.

"No Mimi! I haven't cheated on you I swear! It's just that I've always been in love with Sora!"

"Then why were you going out with me?" she demanded, I didn't know what to answer, so I didn't say anything "to make her jealous?" she persisted, I couldn't say anything, I didn't find the right words "So it's that! You're suck a jerk Taichi Yagami!" with that, she slapped me again and ran away, I could hear her crying.

"I wasn't expecting this from you Tai! How could you!" Joe yelled at me.

"You don't know the whole story Joe" I looked at Izzy looking for help. But he just shrugged. Then, my digivice beeped, there were 2 signals, they had to be Matt and Sora, so I followd the signal leaving everyone behind.

"I don't understand Tai, shouldn't they be happy for you?" Koromon asked me from my arms.

"It's not that simple Koromon, everything went wrong and they have reached wrong conclusions" I answered.

"You humans are so confusing..." Koromon sighed.

The signal was in a nearby building, in a second floor, so I headed there. I took the stairs and when I reached the second floor, I saw Gabumon and Biyomon arguing. They stopped arguing when they saw me and Koromon. Biyomon half smiled to me and Gabumon looked at me as if I was a dark master.

"They're in that room over there, but I wouldn't go in Tai" Biyomon told me.

"I don't care, I'm going in there" I left Koromon with them and opened the door.

"You did cheat on me Sora! Don't lie to me!" I saw a pissed off Matt when I went inside, in fact, they didn't notice me.

"No, she didn't" I said. Both of them turned around and saw me, I expected Matt to tackle me, but he didn't.

"You get the fuck out of here! You're next!" he threatened me.

"Nobody's next Matt" Sora started saying as she came closer to me "we're breaking up because I'm in love with Tai and that's it" she grabbed my hand when she said this.

"You think it's that simple? I'm not going to let you cheat on me with him and simply walk away! I loved you Sora! How could you!" he shouted.

"You know perfectly I can Matt! I already told you why" she answered. I wondered what was she talking about.

"So I've been living a lie for 4 years? Is that what you're saying to me?"

"I did love you Matt and you know it, but you know perfectly that our relationship this year wasn't good at all!" I decided not to talk, Biyomon was right, I should have stayed outside.

"Let's relax and try to solve this in a peaceful way" Izzy said as him, Joe and Mimi showed up.

"There's nothing to solve here! She is a bitch and he is an asshole!" Mimi said.

"You know what? Mimi's right! I'm fucking leaving, and I don't want to see you 2 ever again!" Matt shouted as he stormed out of the room.

"I'm going with you Matt" Mimi followed him. Joe looked at us in a way that I've never seen before and followed them. After a minute of silence I decided to break it.

"You knew didn't you Izzy?" I asked him, he smiled.

"Yes, I did... listen I'm happy for you 2, and I would really like to explain you, but I think it's better if I go with them, you will be fine, you have WarGreymon on your side"

"You're leaving us by ourselves Izzy?" Sora asked him.

"I'm afraid I have to" then a huge grin appeared on his face when he looked at our hands "besides, I think that you need a little time for yourselves" Sora released my hand and started blushing when he said this "I'll manage to calm them down so that we can get back tgether as soon as possible, take care!" with that he left.

Of all the uncomfortable situations of my life, this was definetly one of them. I was in a moment that I had been waiting for years, being alone with Sora and knowing that she loved me, but I didn't know what to say. Fortunately, she decided to speak.

"Me too Tai"

"Huh?" I was lost.

"I mean, that I love you too Tai" she said, smiling.

"You can't even imagine how happy I am to hear that" I answered, my voice cracked a littl bit, I was nervous as hell.

"Are you nervous Tai?" she giggled.

"No! It's just that I can't believe what's happening, that's all. It's like a dream" I answered.

"Well let me show you that it's not a dream" she got closer to me. I couldn't believe it, it was happening, I was about to kiss the girl of my dreams. I got closer and when our lips touched, it felt amazing. Normally a kiss for me was only the introduction for sex. I would have never imagined that a kiss could mean so much.

"Sorry if we interrupt" Koromon appeared and I was brought back to reality. We broke the kiss and saw Koromon and Biyomon standing there.

"Are we alone now?" Biyomon asked.

"I'm afraid we are Bi, we will have to be by ourselves for a while now" Sora answered.

"Gabumon is such a jerk Tai!" Koromon complained as he jumped in my arms "he insulted me, why me? I just saved the day today! You're welcome!"

"Now that was intense wasn¡t it?" I tried to neutralize the situation.

"Sure was, they have overreacted a little bit" Sora answered.

"It's also kind of my fault, I could have chosen another moment" I said.

"No it wasn't, if you hadn't told Sora how you felt Machinedramon would have killed all of us" Biyomon told me.

"Thanks Biyomon" I told her "so what should we do right now?" I asked.

"How about a meal? I think I deserve it!" Koromon offered. All of us laughed.

"Sure, why not?" Sora joined.

So we walked around the city until destiny wanted us to arrive to the very exact restaurant where Sora and I would always have dinner when we hung out, we decided to go inside, Biyomon and Koromon sat in a table while Sora and I cooked the food.

"I won't be able to cook the same spaguetti but I'll do my best" Sora said.

"I don't know if I will be able to cook good tasting food at all, you know, the Yagami genes" I joked, Sora laughed.

"Remember the last time we were here Tai?" she asked me.

"When I dropped the glass and made a scene?" I offered, she laughed again.

"Yes, but don't you remember something else that almost happened?" she asked again. I remembered, we were talking about that we never kissed someone, and joked that we should kiss each other. We were 14 years old then. The joke turned serious and we almost kissed, when we were interrupted by Yolei, who happened to enter te restaurant in that moment.

"I do, what would have happened if Yolei hadn't showed up?" I asked.

"We can always fix that Tai" she said as she leaned close to me. We kissed again, and it felt as good as the first one did, I didn't want to be interrupted, time stopped when I kissed her, but then, something started smelling like burning.

"Oh shit!" Sora cursed as she broke the kiss and went back to the spaguetti.

We finished cooking our attempt of that famous italian food after a long time, Koromon's fault. We put the plates in the table and all of us started eating.

"Not as good as they do but we did a decent job!" I said

"Yep, could have been worse" Sora added.

"I love it!" Koromon shouted as he was already eating his second plate.

We finished eating, Koromon ate so much that he digivolved to Agumon. We stayed in the restaurant because we didn't know where to go.

"There's something I need to know Sora" I told her.

"What is it?"

"I thought that you were in love with Matt all this time... how come you love me now?" I decided to start the serious talk now, it was a good moment. Sora's face changed in a second when I made her this question. She put her fork down and started talking seriously.

"Tai, I've always loved you, I think that this feelings started during our first adventure here" she started.

"Same here Sora, but why were you dating Matt then?" I interrupted.

"Listen Tai, when we were 13 years old I had a big crush on you, and I tried to let you know all the time, that's when I stopped being a tomboy and started being a girl, I wanted us to stop being friends and take our relationship further. I tried to let you know that I liked you every way possible Tai, didn't you get it?"

"Oh god Sora, I didn't notice... how could I have been so clueless?"

"It's okay Tai, I cold have just told you" she answered.

"No, I should have had the courage to tell you, I felt the same for you. I can't believe that I have the crest of courage and I have been a coward with this all this time..."

"And why didn't you Tai? What was scaring you?"

"Sora, I always feared that you only considered me as a friend and that I would ruin our relationship making it uncomfortable..."

"Just like me Tai... I can't believe it..." she said. After that there were seconds of silence until I remembered that she didn't answer my question.

"You still haven't answered my question Sora" I told her.

"Oh sorry... well the point is Tai, that I got mad at you for being so clueless and started believing that you only considered me as a friend." I wanted to go back to the past and beat the shit out of my younger clueless self "this days I was also hanging a lot with Matt so when I told him that you didn't feel that way for me he supported me and after a couple of months he asked me out and I said yes because I developed a little crush on him" she finished.

"Matt knew you liked me?!" I shouted. This was shocking news, Matt knew that we liked each other! I thought he was our friend! Instead of helping us to get together like every friend would do he took advantage of the situation and managed to date her, friends don't do that! He could have talked to me... That bastard!

"Yes Tai, why are you yelling?" should I tell her that he knew? I wanted to tell her, but it wasn't a good idea. Things were already screwed up and we needed to get back together to destroy the dark masters, I decided that we would solve this when we get back to the real world.

"Oh nothing, sorry about that, I'm just surprised that's all" I started smoking a cigarette.

"Can you give me one Tai?" she asked me. I remembered something and opened my backpack.

"I got this one for you" I said as I handed her the carton.

"Wow thanks" she opened it and smoked one.

"Why do you humans smoke?" Biyomon asked us.

"Because we are stupid Bi, don't ever smoke!" I laughed at that, she looked exactly like my mom, telling you not to smoke when she was smoking.

"Anyway Sora, if you were in love with Matt, why are you all of a sudden in love with me again?" I turned to the serious conversation again.

"I never stopped loving you Tai, you were always in my mind and one of the usual reasons of our fights" that cheered me up, bothering Matt even when I wasn't there felt good "and this year has been awful Tai... our relationship was driving me crazy. And then you appeared in my life again, you saved my life again... that's when I knew I loved you Tai." she took my hand when she said this.

"I can't believe it... we've been in love with each other for 4 years and we never knew..." I said.

"We can fix that Tai, we're still young" she answered.

"Are you guys finished? You're boring me!" Agumon complained, I glared at him and he looked down knowing he screwed up.

"Sorry" he apologized.

"It's okay Agumon, don't you guys feel like walking somewhere?" Sora offered.

"Yes!" Agumon and Biyomon cheered, we must have bored them a lot.

We started walking and looked at the destroyed buildings, the school we went to was destroyed, Sora's appartment was destroyed, pretty much everything was detroyed because of the battles that had taken place there the day before and that morning. We kept walking until we reached a familiar place... this was the place where the tent that held Matt's concert 4 years ago was. Last time I was here I lost Sora and now the situation was completely different, I had an idea. Sora and Biyomon kept talking and walking while I held Agumon behind.

"Hey Sora! Wait up!" I shouted. Sora turned around and looked at me confused. I ran to where she and Biyomon were.

"Tai what's wrong with you?" she asked me.

"Are you going to the concert with someone? Not that it matters to me, just wondering..."

"Tai w-" she stopped when she realised what I was doing "Oh.. Tai..."

"So?"

"Listen Tai about that day..."

"Are you going with someone or not?" I insisted. She smiled.

"No I'm not, why are you asking?"

"You know, I was thinking that we could go together" I still remembered what I was going to say that day.

"Sure!" she answered. Both of us started laughing after that.

"Sorry about that, I just felt like we could 'correct' that day" I told her.

"By the way! You still owe us some cookies!" Agumon added.

"Listen Tai, about that day..." she started.

"Tell me"

"I was already going out with Matt then... I really wanted to say yes, I even got excited because I thought there was a chance of you liking me... but then you looked like if you didn't care, so I just want to forget that day you know..." I put my index finger on her lip so that she stopped talking.

"That day my heart was broken, so we're forgetting it forever" I told her.

"Agreed" she smiled.

"But what about the cookies!" Agumon insisted

"Oh just drop it!" Biyomon said as she hit him in the head.

"Don't worry Agumon I will make you those special cookies, promised" Sora told him.

"Yay!" he cheered.

We kept walking until we arrived to an area that hadn't been damaged, my house being in this area. So we split and went to different shops to get dinner and things we needed. Me and Agumon went to the mall to get the food while Sora and Biyomon went to get medicines and things we might need.

"Don't eat it Agumon! Can't you wait?" I told him as he started eating some of the stuff we picked up.

"Sorry Tai, I can't help it!"

After we picked lots of food, I also grabbed cans of beer and then there was something that caught my attention... should I get them or not?

"What is that Tai?" Agumon asked me, I felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Well... um... they are... balloons! Yeah, they are balloons!"

"Balloons? Why do we need balloons? Are you sure those are balloons?" he kept asking.

"Of course! Look" I got one out and started inflating it.

"But we don't need them don't we?"

"Who knows Agumon, we might want to celebrate new year's eve"

"Oh I see" I sighed, he bought it. So I picked 2 boxes and put them in the chart.

The 4 of us met in our appartment, the door wasn't locked so we opened it. It was exactly like my appartment was 7 years ago. It had the same things, and everything was in the same place. It was wierd, but it felt nostalgic. All the memories of that year came back to me, it was a great year.

We were going to spend the night there, so we arranged that Agumon and me would sleep in the room that I used to sahe with Kari and Sora and Biyomon would sleep in my parents room. After all this arrangements we started cooking dinner. We had dinner and it got late after we talked about what we were going to do. The plan was that the next day we were going to start moving and we wold contact with Izzy via D-Terminal so that we didn't loose them.

Agumon and Biyomon went to sleep while Sora and I stayed in the living room. What did we do? We spent most of the time snuggling of course, but then Sora got serious.

"Listen Tai, I have to tell you something..."

Sorry! Another cliffhanger... I don't know but I kinda like them lol. So what does Sora have to say? Did you like the balloon moment? Hahahhaha I think that here lots of questions are answered in this chapter, stay tuned for more!
