"YEAH!!!! WAY TO GO MATT!!!!" Sora and Tai were both screaming for the great performance that Matt gave. Matt and Tai hadn't talked much since Sora had made her choice a week ago.... so it was only natural that their eventual meeting would be at a concert. After the show, Sora and Tai, arm in arm, walked up to congratulate Matt. "Great show Matt!" said an excited Sora. Sora gave him a quick peck on the cheek, and ran off to see everyone else.... Kari and TK, Izzy... all of them... to tell more of the whole ordeal. As she ran off, Tai said "Don't tell them too much! It's not that big of a deal!" With that, he turned to Matt. "Hey Matt, great show!" Matt looked at the ground, and responded with a slight "Thanks" Tai was a little mad at this, and just came out and said it. "Look Matt... we are gonna have to talk about this sometime... might as well be know... no-body is around" Matt looked around, and saw that nobody was around. Matt sighed, and started.
They started walking over to put away his guitar. "Tai.... I'm not mad at you" Tai looked at him kinda bewildered... and with that funny, goofy smile, asked "Umm... why not?" Matt looked over to where Sora was standing. "Well... you put your ass out there. Man, I don't think I've ever been so proud of you." Tai blushed for a moment.... hearing this from his best friend. "Well... I just mean that you finally went for it. For the longest time, we all wondered when you would. You didn't for the longest time, we thought you gave up! Then, she asked me out. Heh... kinda ironic that is what made you do it." Tai laughed a minute, and gave a simple "yeah" for a response. Matt continued. "I dunno if any of us could hand our entire life over to the person they loved..... but you did... and well... she made her choice." Tai looked at Matt... and saw a single tear flow down his face. "Tai...... don't let go" Sora ran over, and put her arm around Tai's hip. Tai, returning the favor, put his arm around her neck. He looked at those Angel eyes.... and replied "Don't worry Matt.... I won't" With that, the 2 guys did their tradition hand shake, and Tai and Sora left.
On the way home, Sora asked, "What did you mean "Don't Worry Matt"? What were you talkin about?" Tai looked into the star-filled sky, and then into his heaven.... Sora. As he lost himself in her gorgeous eyes... he replied "We were talking about destiny" Sora pulled Tai close, and gave him a kiss. As Tai melted... they continued walking. And, as they walked in silence, arm in arm... Sora could only think of one thing. "I could wait an eternity for destiny.... Tai"
