It's true
Chapter 1: The Song
By Evil Windstar
This is a yaoi Digimon fic. If you don't know what yaoi is, then you shouldn't be here. For the people who don't know what yaoi is, it is boys loving boys. If you don't like it, then leave immediately. I want to remind you that no one is forcing you to read this, okay? This fic is set sometime after in the second season of Digimon. Ken is accept into the DigiDestined. This is a Taito and Daiken/Kensuke fic. It's told by Taichi's point of view. This is probably a PG-13.
Disclaimer - I don't own Digimon or the lyrics, "It's true" by the Backstreet Boys.

I glared at the phone, mentally thinking //ring, ring, ring stupid phone!// I was pathetic, waiting for a phone call that would never come. I knew he was too busy and he said he would try to call.
"Hurry up," I murmured as I remember our first kiss.
*Flashback*
Yamato had invited all of the DigiDestined, old and new, to his concert in Odaiba.
"Hikari, hurry up!," I yelled impatiently, "I'm leaving without you!"
"Okay, let's go," Hikari replies.
We walked over to Takeru's, Miyako's, and Iori's apartment building.
"Hey, Taichi," Takeru said as he took Hikari's hand.
"Better not do that," I kidded. "Daisuke might get jealous." Hikari responded with a face and Takeru laughed. Daisuke's and Ken's apartments were the last stops.
Ken's face lightened up when we came over to picked him up. Not for the group, but to...
Daisuke! I grinned at the thought, //ain't that cute? Ken likes Daisuke. But does Daisuke like Ken, too?// Daisuke was beaming, not liked when we picked him up. My grin grew wider.
We met up with the rest of the group. Sora, Jyou, Koushiro, and Mimi had flown over with Michael. We had first- row tickets. I sat between Sora and Takeru, who was sitting next to Hikari.
I noted that Ken and Daisuke sat next to each other. Everybody had a partner, except for me and Iori. Well, Iori was too young. Sora had Jyou. Mimi had Koushiro. Hikari had Takeru. Daisuke had Ken (well almost). Miyako had Michael. I was the only one who didn't have one, expect for ... Yamato. My eyes saddened a bit, but they snapped back to its cheerful look again.
Everybody was talking. Around me, I tried to tuned in to the conversation, but my thoughts kept turning to Yamato.
"I wondered if Matt is happy?," Takeru asked.
"Why do you ask that, Takeru?," Daisuke questioned.
"Because on his last interview, his eyes looked tired and sad," Takeru explained. "His eyes don't hold the usual spark in his eyes. He's missing somebody."
//Who are you missing, Yamato?//,I wondered. //Who's going to love you when you're alone? Who are you going to love? Why do I care?// I knew why. I remember that I was the first person that Matt told. He told me he 'made it big time' with his band. That was about three years ago. I try to be happy for him, but I couldn't. I was too hurt.
While I was in my own world, Takeru and Sora had to pinch me to get me back to reality.
"Oww," I squeaked.
"Good, you're awake," Sora smirked.
"Yamato is coming on, Taichi," Takeru said gently. I nodded dumbly.
Then, Yamato come on stage and smiled to the crowd, but not the smile he always wore. This was a tired smile. His azure, sapphire eyes had sadness and they were moving, searching. And they landed on me. Was it me or did his eyes brightened up a bit? I shuck my head, no use of rising my hope up for nothing.
Yamato ran his fingers through his blond hair. It sparkle. I guessed he spend a lot and I mean lot of time in doing his 'hair'. It looks like a bird's nest. He still has the same hair cut since we were in the Digital world.
"This song is new. I wrote a few weeks ago. It's called It's True," Yamato said into the microphone, "This song is dedicated to the person who I love with all my heart." //You probably mean Takeru//, I thought bitterly.
My eyes flickered from the floor to Yamato's face. He was staring right at me. My face flushed, but fortunately the lights dimmed down, covering my hot face.
Yamato opened his mouth and soft, melodic words came out. I know the lyrics by heart.
~*Even a lover makes a mistake sometimes
Like any other
Fall out and lose his mind
And I'm sorry for the things I did
For your teardrops over words I said
Can you forgive me and open your heart once again, oh yeah
It's true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah, it's true
Without you I would fall apart
Whatever happened
I know that I was wrong, oh yes
Can you believe me
Maybe your faith is gone
But I love you and I always will
So I wonder if you want me still
Can you forgive and open your heart once again, oh yeah
It's true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah, it's true
Without you I would fall apart
I'd do anything to make it up to you
So please understand
And open your heart once again
It's true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah it's true
Without you I would fall apart*~
As Yamato was singing, his eyes never left me or so it felt. I felt that he was only singing just for me, it is just my imagination. He sang some more.. But I wasn't listening anymore. The lyrics stuck on my mind:
~*...I'm sorry for the things I did
For your teardrops over words I said
Can you forgive and open your heart once again, oh yeah*~
During the intermission, everything went, well...okay. Takeru just had a happy smile on his face. "I'm going to over to Yamato to congratulate him. Anyone want to come?" Everyone went except for me, Daisuke, and Ken.
Ken and Daisuke were staring at each other's eyes. I was totally surprised that they didn't make out. I was staring miserably into space, thinking about Yamato, always him. I sighed. I stared at Ken and Daisuke, jealousy swept through me.
When everybody came out, Hikari commented, "Yamato sure looked miserable," as she stared at me and I shrugged. "He asked for you first, not Takeru," she whispered into my ear, then she lifted her head and game me a glance, telling me that she wasn't going to let me off the hook and that she knew about me liking Yamato and that she totally supported me. I gave her a small, sad smile.
The rest of the night went in a blur. Finally the concert ended. As I got off my seat, two big men came up to me.
"Taichi Kamiya, is that you?," one of the men asked gruffly. I nodded dumbly, thinking //okay, what did I do this time?// "Mr. Ishida wants to see you, Mr. Kamiya."
"Oh....okay," I mumbled to the big burly men as I looked at Takeru. My look telling him 'what is your crazy brother doing???!!!'. Why do I have this feeling that somehow Takeru and Hikari are involved in this? He only grinned. I gave Takeru a 'You're weird' look. "Hikari, tell Mom that I'll come home later, 'kay?"
"Did you forget, Taichi?," Hikari asked. " We're going to have a big sleepover at Miyako's house tonight. We'll see you later, Okay? Bye, big Bro and good luck." She winked at me and I gulped. Oh man...
Everybody said goodbye to me. " Come on, Mr. Kamiya. Follow us,' said the man. They led me behind the stage, toward one of the doors. While I was walking, I hope that we would never make it. I was terrified of seeing Yamato again. Sweat started to fall down my face. "Here. Knocked before you enter."
I nodded. And the two men left, leaving me alone, making me face my rival and my .... best friend. //I want to be more than friends, Yamato. I want to your lover. The only one that you truly love. None of these sluts love you, they worship only your body. Not what's deep inside.// I hesitantly raise my hand and left there for a long time. This was pathetic. I had the crest of courage and I didn't even have enough courage to knock on a stupid door. I sighed and knocked, firmly, on the door.
"Come in," a voice faintly answered, muffled by the door. I stood there undecided for a few seconds. I quickly opened the door. "Hey Tai, how are ya?"
"I'm okay.....Yamato," I answered, shifting uncomfortably, blushing terribly. Thank God, for the shadows around the room.
"Wait for me, okay? Maybe we can walk around the park," Yamato said quickly. I nodded. "I want to talk to you about something. Just sit around......here," pointing to a sofa.
I perched on the sofa, barely sitting on it. I was nervous. Millions of things were running around my mind. //What does he want?// I put my head between my hands. I knew had to tell Yamato about my feelings. //Might as well be tonight. Yamato is so cute. Especially when he's wearing tight clothes. Showing off his hot and slender body.// This is not a good idea, thinking about his hot body, which was not helping me at all. I was getting a hard - on. //Opps.//
Yamato appeared, wearing black jeans and a fuchsia red shirt. //Oh my god, he looks so sexy like that. How in the world does he do that? MAKING ME DROOL OVER HIM???// I think my jaw dropped. It took all my will power not to kiss him and take him, right there and then. "Let's go." He appeared so calm, so relaxed. Unlike me. "Want to see my new Jaguar?"
"Jaguar? Since when?"
"Since girls started to chase me. Every time I got out of the building, I'm smothered by kisses and shrieks. I have to get away. So I sneaked off. I don't get hurt, nobody has, and get my privacy," Yamato explains.
"Oh." //Baka. You should have said, 'since when girls are chasing for your so called looks?' and laughed, but I didn't. So back off//, I said to myself.
We quickly climb into his car. Yamato try to start a conversation, but I kept going into my own world. Even at one point, I forgot that I was with him. We made it to made to the park without killing each other, I was totally surprised that Yamato didn't blow his top. He was acting too patient with me, that's not like him at all. I was very wary of him, now. I noted that he controlled his emotions better than before. This going to be hard. Admitting my feelings to him. I guess that's why I have the crest of courage.
"Taichi, I have to tell you something that's very important." For once using my full name. We walked around the park in silence, we stopped at the lake. The water reflect the moon and the stars. //It's amazing how the stars are so pretty and beautiful, but so far away, kind of like Yamato. He is so beautiful.// Yamato sat down on the ground.
"Shoot," I said as I sat down next to him.
Yamato shifted a bit, sitting next to me. Involuntarily, I shifted moved away. I hate physical contact with anyone, except the people in my family. " Did you like the song in the beginning of my concert?"
"Yes. It was really good. Was it meant for Takeru?"
"No. It was meant someone who is very special to me. Someone.....someone.......that........ is..."
"Someone what, Yama-chan?," I asked in confusion. I was confused. //Who could it be? If it wasn't for Takeru, then who was it for?//
"You haven't use that nickname for years, Tai," Yamato said as he laughed. "Why are you using it now?"
"I don't know. Now what about that someone?"
"The song was dedicated to the person I love."
"Oh, what's wrong with that?," I chocked out as my heart was breaking into millions of little pieces.
"Tai, this person is very special to me. I been through a lot with this person, too. But I doesn't know how to tell them."
"Just tell them. Just say it, next time you see the person. Just say 'I love you and may I kiss you?' or something like that." Tears were starting to form in my eyes.
"We'll still be best friends, no matter what happens, right Tai?"
