WHAT HEARTS CAN SAY (part 2)
~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~~*~*~~*~~*~~*~*~*~*
In an alley:
"Would someone tell me what's going on?!!" Mimi demanded angrily-hands on hip.
Tai looked suspiciously both sides ensuring that they had not been followed while Matt only stood there leaning against the wall, his look unreadable.
"Uhh sure Mimi. We'll tell you..as soon as we get to my place," Tai said grabbing both of his friends by the arm and pulling them out of the alley.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
At Tai's place:
"Matt? Are you okay?" Mimi asked putting her hands on Matt's shoulders the minute they stepped in Tai's house. It worried her that Matt hadn't spoken a word since they had left the restaurant 'and he does look kind of pale,'she told herself.
Matt noded grimly. They all sat down. Matt looked up at Tai. "Tai, you do believe me right? I mean you got us out of there so you must've believed my dream..right?"
"I don't know Matt.. It must've meant something..I certainly didn't like how that guy was looking at you."
"WILL SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?" Mimi spat angrily.
Both boys stared at her as of seeing her for the first time.
"Uh sure thing Mimi."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
At the time Tai finished telling Mimi about Matt's dream, she had turned white. "And what are we going to do?" Mimi was more than a little upset now.
"That's the thing, I don't know," Tai sighed.
"What about the police?! We can call the police!" Mimi nearly jumped with excitement.
Both boys looked incredibly at her. "Yeah, and what do you suggest we tell them..My friend here had a nightmare and we want you to arrest the man we saw in the restaurant 'cause he looks just like the guy from the nightmare?? Common Mimi!" Tai sarcastically said.
Mimi slumped back to the sofa, disappointment written all over her face.
"And now that I had time to think about it, I think we're way overacting. I mean it was ONLY a dream! And what if that guy was staring at Matt?.. People stare at people all the time!" Tai reasoned.
"What are you saying Tai?!! You don't believe me is that it? Or do you think I made the whole thing up, huh?" Matt shot at Tai.
"I didn't say that! I just meant that you could be wrong," Tai shot back.
"I know what I saw Tai!" Matt shouted.
"Okay, calm down will ya?"
Mimi watched the argument silently, her face pale. Matt quietened but still upset he turned away from his friend."I'm sorry."
"Matt, I.."
"No,.." Matt cut Tai off. "You're right; I could be wrong."
After that no further words were said for a long time.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
"I think my ride's here," Mimi announced.
Both boys stood. Matt looked embarrassed. "Mimi I'm sorry..I know I ruined your day! I really didn't mean to."
"It's not your fault Matt. Please take care. I'm really worried."
Matt shook his head "Don't worry..Tai is right..I think I overacted. It was only a dream."
"I really hope so," Mimi said sincerely.
"Hey, we'll see ya tomorrow," Matt smiled widely at her.
"You sure will," Mimi smiled back before she circled his neck with her arms and hugged him.
Matt couldn't help blushing.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
Matt and Tai watched as Mimi's ride disappeared into the road. Matt turned to Tai. "I think I'll be going too."
"No you won't. You're spending the night here," Tai announced.
"I thought you said we've been overacting!"
"Yeah, well, it doesn't hurt to be careful."
"Really Tai, I'll be fine," Matt tried to reassure his friend.
"Matt, you either spend the night here or I spend the night at your house. It's your choice."
Matt smiled appreciatively. "Thanks," he said.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
At morning:
Repeated knocks on the door woke the two sleeping friends. Tai groggily opened his eyes. He was stiff and his muscles sore. He realised that he fell asleep on the couch. He looked at his right where Matt, streched out on the sofa, was beginning to stir. He sat up and headed to open the door.
"Mimi?! Hi,.." Tai began upon being greeted by Mimi's face.
"Is everything okay? Matt's here right?" Mimi looked worried.
"Yeah. Everything's allright. Commin."
"Great," Mimi's worried expression dissolved into a wide grin. "'Cause I have a surprise." With that Mimi stepped aside and somone else stepped forward. "Hello Tai!"
"Sora?!!!!" Tai cried with surprise.
"She arrived last night and called me early in the morning. Nice surprise, huh Tai?" Mimi grinned evilly.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
The four friends sat down and talked. Everyone enjoyed the company. They talked and laughed. Later,Sora told Matt and Tai that Mimi had told her about yesterday's incident. She was worried too. "So what should we do? Should we take it seriously?"
"Well, there isn't much we can do anyways. It could be nothing but it wouldn't hurt to keep an eye on Matt these days," said Tai.
"Hey! I can take care of myself!" complained Matt.
"I said it wouldn't hurt," Tai made a face.
Matt sighed, and the two girls chuckled.
"Soo, where should we go today?" Mimi asked cheerfully.
Matt blinked and stood up suddenly, a panic expression covered his face. "Tai!! Oh my God! The GAME!!" he cried.
Tai stood up, his eyes wide with panic. "THE GAME!!! Dammit! We're gonna be late!"
Both boys raced to get ready.
"Hey can we come too," Mimi asked loudly, a grin played on her lips.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
Matt and Tai made it in time after all. Sora and Mimi found two seats and were ready to watch the game. Everyone was ready..Ten minutes before the game starts.. The coach stared at Matt with a frown. "Where the hell is your uniform?" he boomed.
"Uhh, in my locker coach," Matt was too caught up with his fight with Tai he forgot to grab his uniform.
"Well, what the hell are you waiting for?"
Matt ran on cue. "Hurry up Matt," Tai's voice shot behind him. "You have nine minutes!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*
In the locker-room:
Matt was frantically struggling with his lock. "Common, COMMON," he urged angrily.
Matt was aware of a movement from behind. Before he had a chance to turn a strong hand covered his mouth and an arm circled his waist, drawing him closer to the body.
"I must take you with me," the cold unhuman voice whispered.
