Okay, lots of votes, I mean 25 the first day it was up

Okay, lots of votes, I mean 25 the first day it was up! I have 40 as of 3:21 Sept. 4th (also my first day of school, blech!) And guess what, only 11 votes are Sorato. So if you want Sorato, you have to beat 39 Taito votes. (Please only vote once, it's not like I can remember all the names of my voters, but it is only fair if everyone only votes once.) You still have time to vote if you haven't, you can vote until the third chapter is put up. This is the second and with school just starting I may have to put this off, you never know. Anyway, thanks for all the feedback, it is most appreciated. And a special thank you to Yuki-Chan for the WONDERFUL pictures you sent me, I will find a way to show everyone if that's okay. They are great, believe me. Okay, anyway, please review, even if you have voted, I do need ideas, and I do like compliments and criticism!

The Battle for Yamato Part 2: Round one

"I want the first night."

"I thought I got him the first night."

"No, Queer, I do."

Sometimes Taichi can be a complete idiot. He always assumes that he's first in line, gets the first turn, you know what I mean? I just rolled my eyes, and watched him pick up Yamato's band schedule again. How he managed to get one of those away from Yama is a wonder to me, but it was helping us figure out what nights would be okay to ask him over. I wanted the first night so I could have the first shot at moving in on Yamato, it might just make my chances better, but he wanted the same thing. He shook his head. "Fine. You can have him tonight."

" Good. You can have Friday night since it's his next open night. But no sleepovers, that's not fair.", I told him running my fingers through my hair. " He can't sleep over at my place, so until you either win the bet or you lose and he's just your best friend, he's not sleeping over at your place. Got that, Yagami?"

"Whatever, Bitch. Just don't get too grabby with him. From what he's told me of his fan girl encounters he hates to get touched by people that he doesn't know and that aren't welcome to.", Taichi implied with a grin.

"I'm sure he'll be fine with me. You on the other hand…"

"You don't know that. He might prefer me."

I don't usually get asked over to Sora's but she did ask, and I didn't have anything going on so it wasn't a problem. Besides, when Jun found out she went ballistic. Anything that makes her go ballistic is fine by me. I headed to her place after I talked to my Geometry teacher about the test I had missed last week, and knocked on the door. As soon as she opened it I was pulled inside. One thing I can't stand are girls that just latch themselves onto me, and trust me, I get that a lot at school, but I really can't take it when I'm at a friends'. I ripped my arm away from Sora, knowing there had to be a frown on my face. Didn't she know I didn't like to be dragged around? I guess she didn't notice because she instantly began talking.

"Oh, Yama, it's been so long since it's been just you and me alone! Taichi is always around you like a buzzard isn't he?"

'At least he doesn't jerk me around like a rag doll. I don't seem to mind when he latches onto my arm, unlike some people…', I thought to myself, but then forced a small smile and said instead, "I like it when Taichi is around. He's great."

"Well, okay? Do you want to watch a movie?"

"Sure."

* * *

The movie was boring compared to glancing at Yamato. He was so hot! His long, almost shoulder, length blonde hair, his bangs always trying to cover his eyes and the rest of his perfect face. It was all I could do not to jump him right then and there, yet somehow I kept my control. Since his eyes were glued to the screen, I slowly moved my foot in the direction of his leg, since we were sitting on the same couch it wasn't very far to reach. Keeping my gaze on the TV as well, I slid my stocking foot up his pant leg, rubbing it against him teasingly.

He pulled away, as if nothing was wrong. I saw no reaction on his face.

'Okay, so I'll have to try harder.', I thought determinedly.

I scooted over a little closer to him, unnoticed once more. Was this stupid movie really that important? I sigh a little, which he didn't seem to hear, and that just got me really frustrated. I wanted Yamato NOW! In one swift moment, I had him somewhat pinned in the corner of the couch, my lips over his and my arms around him. He tried to say something, but I couldn't make it out, and I didn't care. His lips were so soft, and I traced my tongue along them, trying to get him to kiss me back. Before I could truly soak all of him in, he tore away, getting up off the couch.

"I-I-I have to go, Sora.", he stammered as he left in a hurry.

"Damn it!", I cursed.

* * *

I had never felt this way in my life. How could Sora do that? She had head me complain a million times that I have hundreds of girls try to kiss me all the time, and what does she do? Invites me over and totally puts the moves on me! This isn't what I had expected from her. Why had she kissed me anyway? Was she just another Jun? Another crazed fan that just saw my face and my guitar?

Did I just lose a friend?

I walked home, wishing that I had someone to talk to. Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I whirled around praying to everything holy that it was not Sora. I wouldn't be able to face her right now. Taichi was standing there, looking at me with concern in his brown eyes. "Are you okay, Yamato? You look upset about something? Is everything all right? I heard you were going over to Sora's…this doesn't have to do with…her…does it? Did you two fight?"

"It's…it's not that.", I managed to get out. I actually would have preferred a fight compared to this. I had lost so many friends this year when I found out that most of them only wanted to either be seen with me or sleep with me. I was sick of being hit on by people who didn't care about how I felt. Taichi was looking me over and the next thing I knew he was hugging me tight.

I hadn't been hugged like that in a long time.

"It'll be okay, Yama."

"Thanks, Taichi.", I whispered. "You're a good friend."

To be continued:

Okay, there you are. The first round of the Battle for Yama! Sorry to all you Sorato fans, I know you wanted it to go your way, and if you vote it does help! You have until the next chapter! Oh, and Taito fans, you can still vote too. And I do like just reviews, those are nice!
