"Tai, Sora's on the phone" Kari said as she strolled into Tai's room.
"Huh! Oh, OK" Tai said getting up from his bed. " Is anything wrong ?"
"Dunno, Sora just told me that she wants to talk to you." Kari said handing Tai the sordless.
"Hmm..Ok thanks anyway, I'll take it from here if you don't mind" Tai said taking the phone into his hand and covering the mouth piece with his hand.
"Sure, I have to go on the net anyway. I promised T.K, that I would talk to him today." Kari said and smiled when she mentioned T.K's name.
" Do you think he is going to ask you out soon?" Tai said walking over to his desk.
"I do hope he will. Anyway I gotta go." Kari said while technically floating out the door.
"Uuuh" Tai said slapping his hand on his fore head. "Girls. You can't live with them and you can't live without them."
"Hello, Tai who are you talking to?" , Sora's voice came out of the cordless' mouth piece.
" Oh..H..hi S..Sora. I was just talking to Kari." Tai said nervously.
"But, didn't Kari leave the room a while ago?" Sora asked confused.
"Oh, lets just forget it. Anyway what was the news that you wanted to tell me?" Tai asked twirling a pencil in his hand. He was sitting on his desk chair.
"Well, actually you see it was .. no real news. But I wanted to ask you something." Sora said in a nervous voice.
Tai wondered why Sora was getting nervous. "Sure shoot!". He continued twirling the pencil in his fingers. He liked to fiddle with a pencil while he was on the phone.
"W..well, you see the...theres th..this big event going on an'. Oh what the heck! Tai will you go out with me to the Formal Dance this Friday at the Hikoru High School? "
Tai dropped the pencil.
"Tai? Um..its Ok if you don't want to go or if you have other important stuff to..." Sora said in a hasty voice.
"OH, No NO. Its OK! Um.. Gee, I'd be glad to go out with a girl like yo...I MEAN I AM HAPPY TO TAKE YOU TO THE SEMI-FORMAL.", Tai said just before he realized what he was saying.
" Um...Oh Ok, C..cool! S..So y..you will p..pick me up at at at..." .Sora was obviously dazed.
" How about 7'O Clock?" , Tai asked not wanting to embarrass Sora.
"Then 7'O Clock it is" , Sora said ."Um..so, Bye, see you later."
"Yeah, see you tonight! SO its a date!" , before he could stop it the words were out of his mouth.
"Yeah, I guess! See you tonight." Sora said in a concealed happy voice.

Tai put down the phone and just stared down at the desk. He was thinking. One of the rare things he did.
Tai was happy, he was very happy. And he was going to make tonight the best date ever. It was going to be perfect. I mean what could go wrong.
......From the black overhead fan two red eyes gleamed, they blinked once and then dissapeared......
