Part 2

When they got down there Mr and Mrs Kamiya were waiting outside a curtained off area. Mrs Kamiya was sitting in a chair crying. Kari gave her a hug. "Mum…Is he going to be ok?" she asked. Her mum couldn't reply so her dad did. "We hope so darling. The doctors are in with him now. Hello boys" he said to Ken and Davis who both nodded worried for their friend. The curtain slid open and out came a grizzled old man in a white coat. "Mr and Mrs Kamiya?" Kari's mum and dad both got up and walked over to the doctor. Kari wanted to see Tai so she went in too. Ken and Davis waited outside. "Now Mr and Mrs Kamiya your son is not a very well boy. He appears to have been hit by a speeding car, on the outside he looks very well. Mostly bruises and cuts and he is suffering from mild hypothermia. Now these by them selves wouldn't be much of a problem. But we are worried, he hasn't woken up at all or responded to our medications. We fear he might have some serious internal injuries." Mr Kamiya gripped the end of Tai's bed. "What can be done?" The doctor looked at Tai "Well with your permission I would like to operate and see how bad his internal injuries are but until that there is not much we can do other than keep him warm and make sure there are no infections." "Do it" Mr Kamiya grunted

From outside the curtain Ken and Davis heard what the doctor said. "This cannot be good Davis" Davis nodded his agreement. "I know, lets go and tell Kari we're going back to see Matt. Kari and her parents need to be alone for a while I think." Ken got up and grabbed Davis's hand ( yes they are an item!…) "I'll do the talking…you just look intelligent k?" Davis looked hurt but didn't say anything. Ken quickly ducked around the curtain and stood at the end of Tai's bed. He stopped stunned at Tai's figure lying in the bed. He knew what he was going to see but he didn't expect to see what was in front of him. Tai's athletic figure lay in the bed surrounded by machines and linked to a maze of tubes. His head was bandaged and half of his face was covered in stitches. One of his hands was wrapped in a large bandage and his chest was also bandaged. He looked like he was asleep under his oxygen mask, he didn't move or stir, even when his mum picked up his hand and held it. "What do you want?" Mr Kamiya grumbled "Um..sorry sir, my friend and I just came down with Kari to see whether Tai was ok. Matt wanted to know." Mr Kamiya grumbled "Well you'd best be getting back to Matt then" he threw a pointed glance at the 2 boys then turned around. Kari threw them a small smile before they left.

Matt looked up as Ken and Davis walked in, all the others had gone to get something to eat at the cafeteria. He smiled slightly, "How is Tai?" he asked worry creeping into every word. Davis shuffled his feet then looked at Matt, he could see the pleading in his eyes. Ken wouldn't even look up. "Tell me…please?" Matt begged. "He's…ok." Ken finally spat out. Matt gave him a dirty look "If he was ok you wouldn't be giving me this crap. How is he? Davis buddy tell me the truth?" Davis sighed and looked up "If you want the truth I'll tell you the truth. He's downstairs hooked up to a bunch of machines. The doctors can't wake him so they want to operate, they think he might have some internal injuries. Is that what you wanted?" he asked quietly. "Yeah thanks buddy" Davis walked over to beside Matts bed "Now tell me, tell us Why? Why you did it?" Matt blinked away the tears in his eyes "Why? Its all pretty worthless now…I did it because….of Tai." Ken blinked a few times "Because of Tai? What did he do to you Matt?" Matt glanced up "He did nothing…it was my fault…" he took a deep breath "I…love him….but…" The silence stretched on and Matt started to cry. Heart breaking sobs exploded from the boy. Davis rubbed his back trying to calm him down. Matt sobbed until he had cried himself out. Ken walked around the other side of the bed, still somewhat in a daze for what he had heard. Matt loves Tai…Who would have thought, I mean Matt has lots of girl friends...but no...I'd have never thought him to be gay. "You did it because you didn't think Tai would love you back?" he asked. Matt nodded "And because I didn't think he would like me if I ever told him I liked him like that." Ken and Davis both nodded they knew how Matt felt, they had gone through the same thing "I don't think you should have worried about that Matt, If you had just talked to him he would have told you the truth." Matt looked up with startled eyes "You mean…he..he is gay?" Davis nodded "I shouldn't be telling you this but Yes, Tai loves you but he could never have told you. I think only 3..4 counting you now know about it." "Who else?" Matt asked still a bit shocked, he had found his love but lost it at the same time "Kari of course."

Kari and her parents were waiting in a small alcove when the doctor that had talked to them before emerged from the large theatre doors. "Mr and Mrs Kamiya? " They all got up and followed the doctor into a samll office. "Your son is in recovery now….he should be awake in about half an hour. After that we will decide whether to move him to a private room or not." "So what did you find?" Kari asked quietly. The doctor looked at her then back at her parents "He had some major hemorrhaging in his lower abdomen, mainly where we'd assume the car hit. We did some x-rays of his skull and we didn't find any bleeding there only some minor bruising so we don't have any worries about that area. When we did the x rays we also found that he had fractured his collarbone, so it has been set. The cast will have to come off in about 6 weeks or so." The doctor sighed "Other than that we have done everything and the next step his for him to awake."

Mrs Kamiya nodded her head sadly "So when may we see him?" The doctor checked his watch "As I said, he should be awake soon. If we decide to move him into a private room I'll send a nurse out for you. But until then there is tea and coffee in the cafeteria or if you'd rather there is a small closed door waiting room around here, you can go and sit there." "Thank you doctor." Mr and Mrs Kamiya replied.

It had been an hour since the doctor had seen The Kamiya's when a nurse came out and called for them "Mr and Mrs Kamiya?" They quickly rose and went to the nurse, anxiety written all over their faces. "We are moving your son to a private room on level 2." Kari's heat jumped. That's Matt's level! "If you would follow me I'll take you up there." the nurse continued. Mr and Mrs Kamiya both nodded and they all followed the nurse. Kari was basically skipping! If they've moved him to a private room, it means he's ok and it even better that he and Matt are on the same level. As she passed Matt's doorway she stuck her head in and waved "I'll be back later. They've moved Tai to this level!" she said to Matt and the rest of the digi-destined who were in the room. She quickly caught up with her parents and followed them to Tai's room. It was only around the corner from Matt's room.

As she slipped in the door she was surprised to see that there were not a lot of machines in the room. When she had seen him before he had been surrounded by them. The nurse looked at the boy in the bed "He woke up in recovery a little while ago, he might sleep for a little while longer though. Anaesthetic affects people differently." She turned her attention to her watch and said "If you need me I'll be right outside ok?" They nodded as the door closed behind her. Kari went and stood on her brothers right side, her mum stood at his left and her dad sat down in a chair at the end of the bed. On the side where Kari was standing was Tai medical clipboard she picked it up and started to read through it. It didn't make much sense but from what she could understand it didn't make a pretty picture. She decided that she should leave her parents alone with her brother for a while and go and tell Matt how Tai was, otherwise Matt would probably be jumping out of bed to come and see him. Covering a small smile she quickly told her mum where she was going and left silently.

'knock knock' Kari opened the door to Matts room. All the digi-destined looked at her waiting for news. She was practically bursting with happiness. "He's ok!" She finally spat out. A communal sigh went through the whole room. "He's asleep now, the nurse believes he'll wake up soon." Joe looked at her "Did the doctor tell you what he found wrong with Tai?" Kari nodded then tried to pronounce the big word the doctor had used "He said during the operation they found major…hemo-ora-ging. I think that's how its pronounced and he had a fractured collarbone." Joe nodded, the other just looked at him waiting for an explanation "Hemorrhaging is just a big word for lots of bleeding." Sora patted Matt on the hand, the word bleeding, made him nervous. "So he's going to be alright?" Matt asked Kari who just nodded. Matt sunk down into his bed "That's good." Joe looked at the clock on the hospital wall. "Matt I'm sorry I got to go. I have a class to go to. I'm glad your better and that Tai's gonna be ok, but I really got to go." Matt nodded his understanding. The rest of the digi-destined said the same thing. They had all jigged class to visit him but they had to get back otherwise they'd be in big trouble. The only ones who didn't leave were Sora, Ken and Davis.

Sora picked up Matts hand and rubbed it. Matt tried to get his hand back but it was useless she wouldn't let it go. He looked at her face, it looked dreamy….like she was away with the fairies or something. Then she started to speak, Matt got really scared then. "You know Matt….ever since I'd met you I always thought I saw something in you…." Matt squirmed around in the bed. Ken, Davis and Kari watched on in horror as Sora went through he whole life speech then said, "Matt ...I love you…" Matt's bottom jaw dropped faster than an anvil. Kari looked warily on with Ken, Daivs had turned around….he didn't want to watch. "Will you be my boyfriend Matt?" Sora gazed at him lovingly then lent forward to kiss him. Matt yanked back, pulling his hand back at the same time. "Sora…I like you...as a friend...nothing more!" Sora broke out of her dreamy state and got into an even more terrifying one. Rage. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN!?!" She screeched. "YOU LIKE ME AS A FRIEND? I'M OFFERING YOU A CHANCE TO GO OUT WITH ME! AND YOU'RE TURNING IT DOWN?!" Matt shrank back into his pillows scared of how close Sora was. She could easily hit him. "Sora…now calm down….i only meant that I don't love you….i…i…I like someone else like that. Not you. You are my friend one of my best friends….i could never like you like that!" he stammered out. Soras face turned pale "You…you like someone else?" Kari looked suspiciously and dangerously at Matt. "Who?" Sora asked quietly. Matt shook his head. "Who?" she asked again this time a bit louder. Matt still refused to say. He looked pleadingly at Kari, silently asking her to get rid of Sora somehow…Kari would have done it too…if she'd have known how. "WHO?!?" Sora yelled, the shock at being rejected had worn off, now she was mad. She walked up to Matt and stood basically nose to nose with him. "WHO?" she blasted in his face. Matt pushed her back "I am NOT telling you! Now get out!" he ordered her. Sora slapped him hard on the face, the sound of the slap echoed in the room "I hope your slut's worth it Matt!" She yelled as she loudly slammed the door.

Matt rubbed his sore cheek. Damn that girl can slap hard! He thought to himself.

Kari walked over to him a dangerous glint in her eyes. I have to know who…I will NOT! Let him hurt my brother! "Who?" she asked icily. Matt looked at her frightened. He didn't like it when females got that look in their eyes and if Kari hit as hard as Sora he didn't really want to answer the question. "Who Do You Like?" Kari asked again. Matt looked at her "Tai" came the whispered reply. He shrank back again in shock as Kari nearly jumped for joy. She did a little dance move on the spot then looked at Matt. "I am so glad you said that." Matt sighed "I am so glad I didn't get slapped again." Kari giggled.
