I
She Loves Me She Loves Me Not Part 2
Matt's POV
I knew Tai was coming. I didn't want him to take Mimi away, which I knew he would do. Tai and I would fight and I would probably loose due to everyone going on his side. They always did. I sighed as I looked at Mimi splashing at me. It wasn't that I would shed blood, it was that should get mad at us for fighting. "Tai's coming." I blurted out.
She looked at me with confused eyes and stared at me. Finally she spoke. "How do you know?"
"I heard Tai yell your name." I said. Her eyes immediately filled with tears at the sound of his name. She grabbed my hand and pulled me to the shore.
Mimi's POV
I didn't want Tai to take me. I couldn't take it. I knew he would be mad at Matt, and they would get into another one of their fights. I pulled him into the bushes and ducked down. It wasn't that I didn't want to see Tai, it's just I didn't want Tai to hurt Matt or vise-versa. I hated it when they got in fights and I really didn't want to talk to either when they did.
I heard footsteps and felt Matt's hand go over my mouth.
Sora's POV
I knew he was looking for Mimi. I knew he liked her, and hated Mimi for that. I ran after him and told Biyomon to stay with the others. "TAI!" I shouted. He didn't even turn around to see who it was. "PLEASE!" I yelled. Finally he stopped and I fell to the ground panting.
"I heard her… and I heard him." Tai said. I felt my face burn. She had both of them stuck in her little web. She also had Izzy and Joe on the side, saving them for after the main course. I cursed myself for thinking that. She was my best friend and she didn't mean to do this to them.
I was still panting and tried to comfort him. "Tai… maybe you… just heard what… you wanted."
"No Sora! I didn't! He has Mimi! He's hurting her! I know you like Matt but you don't always have to protect him! Sometimes you really piss me off!" Tai yelled at me. My eyes filled with tears. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. Please-" He tried but I ran away. "Sora!" He shouted and ran after me.
Matt's POV
I took my hand off her mouth and we stood up. I had a big cut across my chest from the branches scratching me and that brought back a lot of memories.
***************************************FLASHBACK************************************
Matt sat on the corner of the street and held out an empty water bottle. "Sorry Gabumon, none left."
"Maybe we should get some more." Gabumon said. Matt and Gabumon had been walking around all day looking for Digimon or the 8th digidestined or anything. They had only had found one digimon who Gabumon had no problem getting rid of.
"Yeah." Matt said and started to get up.
"Gabumon!" Someone yelled. Matt recognized the high pitched voice and wished he could die. He slowly turned around to see Palmon running up to Gabumon and waving her vines in the air.
Matt sighed and looked down at Gabumon. "Hi Mimi." He said in a bored voice.
Mimi slowly walked behind Palmon and smiled. "Hi." She said as Palmon and Gabumon gave each other loving glances. Matt swore that is the world came to a stop, Mimi would still worry about her shoes, or hair or anything that didn't matter. She was too snobby.
Mimi made a big fake smile for Matt even though she wanted to get away from him. He was so… cold and she hated that, but Palmon wanted to see Gabumon. He didn't tell anyone how he felt and it drove her crazy. She sighed as she looked at Gabumon and Palmon. 'Why couldn't Matt be like Gabumon? I thought everyone's digimon was like his or her owner.' Mimi looked back at Matt who was also staring at Gabumon and Palmon. She gave him a few strange looks and tilted her head. He was everything her parents told her not to like. He was a rebel, or at least that's what her parents called boys like him. He was the opposite of her. 'But don't opposites attract?' Mimi thought. Mimi shuddered at this thought. 'Him? Me? No way. Princess and a Rebel. No way. My parents would kill me first.'
Matt noticed Mimi was looking at Gabumon and Palmon and looked at her physical features. She was very pretty. Her big chocolate eyes were gorgeous and her long chestnut brown (Missy- I looked at pencil crayons. HEHEHE) hair that framed her face was perfect. He looked down and looked at her long legs. She was also wearing a short skirt that was perfect. She was everything he hated though. She was too 'ditzy'. Matt sighed and looked at Palmon and Gabumon. Mimi came from a rich family and was use to having everything go her way. He wondered why she became a digidestined in the first place. Sure, she could be sincere, but she complained too much. 'But she makes everyone smile.' He thought. 'And she is strong when she wants.'
Matt snapped back to reality and realized Mimi was staring. "Hello?" she said.
"Hey, sorry. Drifted off." Matt said.
"How did you get that cut?" Mimi asked.
Matt looked down. He had forgot about a large cut that was on his chest. "Oh, a digimon just scratched me."
"JUST! We have to get that cleaned!" Mimi said and grabbed his arm.
"No, really it's-"
"I'm not letting that getting infected! If anything happened to one of the lead digidestined we'd be in trouble!" Mimi said and kept on pulling him. "And my apartment is close and I could fill your water bottles."
"Okay." Matt said and sighed. They arrived at her apartment and Matt looked around. Gabumon and Palmon ran out the door laughing. It was really big for an apartment and he looked at the calendar. He looked at a date circled and red, which said 'Daddy's B-day!'
"Be right back." Mimi said. He watched as she walked away. He did find her very attractive but didn't have a huge crush on her. She was wearing a spaghetti strap tank top with the word 'ANGEL' written across. He looked at his plain clothes. He was just wearing a dark blue sweater with a hood and some jeans. His dad hated it because he said he looked like he was in some gang. He didn't really wear the hood, but he would sometimes to make his dad get pissed. He did the opposite of what his parents liked.
Mimi came in the room with a firs aid kit and a bag of cotton balls hanging out of her mouth. "Mhmmph." Mimi mumbled. Matt laughed and took the bag out. "Thanks." She said. "Now, I can't get at the cut with you shirt."
"No way!" Matt said and grabbed the door handle but Mimi grabbed his arm.
"Matt, I've seen your chest before. I've seen your, hem hem, what's under you pants too so it's not a big deal." Mimi said. Matt froze and turned around. He pulled off his shirt and Mimi traced her finger along the cut. "Hmmm, you're lucky it wasn't any deeper. Now," she said and took out a bottle of rubbing alcohol and dabbed some on a cotton ball. "This will hurt a bit." Mimi said and dragged the cotton ball along the cut. Matt gritted his teeth and Mimi put her hand on his shoulder. "Wow, you actually felt something." But Mimi stopped because she didn't mean to say it. She looked up at him and noticed his eyes were wide.
"Wow, it looks like Mimi actually knows something." He said and she pressed the cotton ball down harder. "Ouch!"
"Oh sorry, did that hurt?" Mimi asked with a smile.
"Actually, yes." Matt said.
Mimi threw the cotton ball in a trashcan and took out a bandage. She pulled it around him and went on her tiptoes and put her arms around him to clip it. She pulled away and stared at him. "Thanks." He whispered but still stared into her eyes. Mimi stared as his azure eyes but the door slammed open and Matt turned around.
"Hi!" Palmon said.
"Are you ready to go yet?" Gabumon asked.
"Uh yeah." Matt said and grabbed his sweater. He put it on but turned around to Mimi. "Bye."
"Wait! Your water bottles." Mimi said and stuck out her hand. Matt handed her two empty bottles and Mimi ran to the kitchen. She filled them and gave them back to Matt.
"Thank you. See you tomorrow! Or possibly today!" Matt said as him and Gabumon left.
"Bye!" Mimi and Palmon yelled.
"Wow." Palmon said and fell to the couch.
"What's your problem?" Mimi asked as she sat next to her.
"Nothing. So, what happened to you and Matt?" Palmon asked with a wink.
"Nothing actually." Mimi said. Mimi thought for a minute as Palmon turned on the TV. 'He isn't that bad.' She thought as she twirled her hair around her finger.
"So?" Matt asked Gabumon.
"One word. Wow." Gabumon said.
"Really?" Matt asked.
"Yep." Gabumon said. He looked at Matt and stopped walking. "And you?"
"What?" Matt asked as he stopped.
"You and Mimi."
"Me and Mimi? There's nothing to say." Matt said and continued walking.
"Sure." Gabumon said.
'She isn't what I expected.' Matt thought.
************************************END OF FLASHBACK*********************************
"We should get changed." I said.
"Yeah." Mimi said and walked away in one direction. I quickly got his clothes on and sat down waiting for Mimi. She came out and sat down next to me. "Now what?" I liked her without her pink hat on and lucky for me, she decides not to put it on.
"I dunno." I said. I should have shut my big mouth because it began to poor. "Find shelter!"
We ran looking for anything that would keep us dry. Mimi pointed to a cave and we ran in. She looked outside trying to see if she could Palmon or Gabumon. "PALMON! GABUMON!" She shouted.
"There's no point. They'll be okay. They'll find a cave." I said.
"I WANT TO GO HOME!" She shouted. I knew she was really wet and probably cold.
"Mimi-" I tried to comfort her but she cut me off.
"It's not okay! We're stuck out here in the rain with no food or dry clothes and some digimon is probably looking for us and we have no one to protect us!" Mimi yelled at me.
"Stop whining! That won't do a thing!" I yelled.
"Don't tell me what to do!" She shouted back. "How do you know what I'm going threw! You hate me and everything!"
"I do not!" I yelled. "At least I'm not some ditz who cries over a broken nail!"
"At least I care about people!" Mimi yelled at me.
"No, you only care for yourself! You're conceded and annoying and a brat! You're not even pretty!" I lied.
"I- I HATE YOU YAMATO ISHIDA!" She yelled in my face. "And if you don't want to see my face, you won't." she said and left the cave. She walked a few yards away with her back to the cave in the poring rain. I wasn't going to get her. She left and I didn't tell her to leave. I sat down and drew pictures in the sand. I ran my hands threw my hair and looked up. She was standing there still with her arms crossed.
"It's gonna be a long night." I whispered.
I couldn't sleep, I just kept on staring at her. It was dark and she was shivering. I got up and thought for a few seconds. 'Matt, you can go out there. Tell her that she isn't ugly but she's the prettiest thing on Ea- uh, oh jeez. It's not hard to beat the digiworld. She's the prettiest girl you have ever met, she's not annoying, and she's not a brat, and you don't hate her you- no, no I don't. So did your parents and look at them now. But I really do. Oh god.' I thought.' I thought. I breathed in and walked out. It was still raining and he had to get her.
I stepped on a dry leaf and she quickly turned around. Her dress was soaked. I slowly approached her but she backed up. "Mimi, listen I'm really sorry. You're beautiful, not ugly. You're not annoying and you aren't a brat, you're the sweetest thing. And, I don't hate you I love you." I said. It was odd how the words came to me. I noticed Mimi's eyes began to water again.
"I love you too Matt." She whispered. I ran over to her and put my hands on her cheeks. They were so cold. I brought her face to mine and I kissed her. She began to kiss me and I pulled my hands away and put them around her hips. I pushed her body up against mine and she wrapped her arms around my neck. I pulled her in the cave, but not taking my lips away from hers. As we finally entered the cave, I pulled away to breath. "Matt," she whispered. I placed my finger over her lips and kissed her forehead.
"You should get some sleep." I whispered.
"I have to get changed. I should wear my bathing suit." She told me and went deeper into the cave. I sighed and leaned my head against the wall.
"You're dead!" I heard Tai shout. I turned my head to see Tai dripping with water.
"Oh hey Tai." I said.
He ran up to me and punched me. I held my cheek and looked at Tai.
Mimi's POV
I heard Tai yell and quickly got changed. I ran out to where Matt was and I saw him holding his cheek. "MATT!" I yelled and went to see what happened.
"It's nothing Mimi." He told me.
"Tai, get out!" I yelled.
"What?" He asked. I noticed how shocked he looked but I didn't want to go back.
"We're not coming! And if you don't understand that, leave!" I yelled. I felt bad but Matt and Tai would start to fight again.
"But Mimi, we need you. I need you." Tai said. Suddenly, I passed out.
It was strange. Tai was everything my parents wanted me to date, but I didn't want to. Yes, I had a crush on Tai, but I loved Matt. My parents liked the type of guy that would take charge of everything, a guy that would take charge of me. I didn't to be a housewife like everyone thought. I'm a 'princess', therefor, I have no choice in life. My parents decide what I eat, what I do, who I be-friend, who I date, who I marry…
I felt my eyes open and saw everyone staring at me. "MIMI!" Tk yelled and hugged me. I noticed Tai's arm around Sora and smiled.
"You scared me." Matt said and kissed my hand.
"Is what she has contagious?" Joe asked.
"No." Gennai said.
"How are you feeling?" Sora asked.
"Better." I said and tried to get up but everyone pushed me back down. I felt really dizzy and put my hand on my forehead.
"You had an ammonia. You're lucky Tai and Matt could carry you here." Izzy told me. "I heard you were standing out in the rain. Why?"
"Long story." Matt told him.
"Gabumon and I saw Matt and Tai carrying you and I passed out. I thought you were dead Mimi." Palmon said with her eyes filled with tears.
"No, I'm alright." Mimi said. I poked Palmon stomach and giggled. "Good, no babies yet."
"Can I talk to Mimi alone for a minute?" Tai asked.
"Yeah, go ahead." Gomamon said.
"Alone." Tai said.
"Alright, Tai." Kari said.
They left and Matt gave Tai one more look. "Touch her and die." Matt said and squinted before Gennai grabbed him.
"Mimi, I was looking for you to tell you that I loved you." Tai said to me.
"Tai, I-"
"I know, you love Matt. I couldn't hurt Sora so I told her I would date her. I also told her I loved her, and I do, but I still love you. I understand you and I'm really sorry about yelling at you." He said and kissed my cheek.
"Tai, I do love Matt, and I can't change that. I'm happy for you and Sora just don't break her heart." I told him and he nodded. He left the room and Matt came in.
"Hi there beautiful." He said and kissed me on the cheek.
"Hi." I said.
"Mimi, when you passed out, I almost did. Mimi, I've learned that you need me and I need you. You're what I was missing. And I love you so much." He said.
"I love you too Matt." I said.
"Did I tell you Palmon is pregnant?" Matt said.
"WHAT!?!?" I yelled.
"Just kidding." He said and I smacked him with the pillow.
"Don't do that!" I yelled and everyone came in.
"Well, sorry to intrude on your 'lovers quarrel' for today, but the lady needs her sleep." Gennai said.
"Oh, can't I sleep with her?" Matt asked.
"No, you'll distract her." Izzy said.
"Alright." He said and kissed me quickly before Tai grabbed him. Tai finally pulled him off me and dragged him out. "BYE! LOVE YA!" He yelled as he held on to the doorframe.
"I love you too." I said and laughed.
"SEE YA- TAI! TOMORROW!" And he was gone.
I laid my head back and sighed. I was so happy I found Matt. But how long would it last?
