Matt

Well this is chapter 3 sorry I couldn't get it up sooner but I'm working on another fic (but like you guys care) well just read an review

Chapter 3

Matt

"Hey," I said to Sora.

"Hey," she answered.

"Isn't today the day that Mimi returns from New York?" I asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"Just wondering, can't a guy just wonder,"

"Yeah," she said eyeing me suspiciously.

It's been 1 week since I heard the news about Mimi.

"Around what time will she be in Japan?" I asked.

"Around four, why do you want to know all this stuff about Mimi anyway?"

"So I can avoid her when she gets here…yeah that's it," I said my answer sounding almost like a question. I gave a small nervous chuckle.

"What's with you today Matt?" she asked me.

"Nothing why does it seem like something's with me?" I asked nervously.

Actually something was with me. The whole week I couldn't get Mimi out of my mind. I didn't really care about her only the way she looked. I guess that's pretty jerky of me but it's true.

"Um…no you just seem different, that's all," she replied.

"Hey, Matt," Crystal said coming up to me and wrapping her arms around my waist.

"Hey," I answered staring into her eyes and kissing her soft, tender lips.

"Well I guess I better go," Sora said.

"Okay, bye," I answered. Then she walked away.

Sora

I just walked off when I saw Matt and Crystal kissing. It made my stomach churn. I couldn't stand it. It should be me kissing Matt not Crystal. Instead I'm stuck with a dumbass, Tai. At least there's one good thing happening, Mimi's coming back! I'm so excited in seeing her. I haven't seen her for 1 whole year. I wonder if she's changed?

"Hey, Sora," Tai said coming up to me and giving me a kiss on the cheek. I can't believe he thinks we're going out.

"Hey," I replied.

"I guess you're psyched that Mimi's coming back,"

"Yeah,"

Last Period English (a/n: I want Mimi to get in this fic soon so I'm sort of rushing it)

Matt

"Great, English. We get to read Romeo and Juliet," I said sarcastically. I was walking to English with Sora and Crystal.

"What? You don't like Romeo and Juliet?" Sora asked surprised.

"No, it's cool in the fight scenes and stuff and the end is neat when Romeo and Juliet die," I replied.

"I can't believe you don't like Romeo and Juliet," she said.

"I'm just not into to much romance books,"

"Then you'll be glad to hear that we're done reading the play,"

"Really?"

"Yeah, don't you pay attention in English?" she asked me.

"No of course not, during English I pay attention to more important stuff," I said smiling at Crystal.

Sora

"Oh, brother," I said under my breath.

When we were in English our teacher said, "Okay class we're done reading the romantic play 'Romeo and Juliet' now we're going to perform it in front of a live audience. Isn't that exciting?" All the guys groaned while all the girls cheered. "All of you guys will be part of the play," even more groans, "some of you will be in the play while other will be in charge of props, sets and things like that. Auditions will be held tomorrow in the auditorium at lunch and callbacks after school for the roles of Romeo and Juliet. The other roles will be auditioned the day after. I hope all of you guys will at least try out for a role." She finished off.

"So, Matt what do you think of the play?" I asked him after class was over.

"It's okay,"

"Are you gonna audition for the part of Romeo?"

"I dunno,"

"I think you should, and then I'll audition for the part of Juliet," Crystal butted in.

"Yeah, I think you'd get the part,"

"Really?"

"Yeah,"

"Then I'll get to be you're leading lady," Crystal said wrapping her arms around his neck.

Correction. I thought. I'll be Matt's leading lady not you, Crystal.

Airport 4:00

Oh my god! Oh my god! Mimi's plane should be here any second. I can't wait. I thought as I was waiting in the airport for mimi's plane to arive from New York. Yes the planes here! The planes here! Hurry up Mimi get off all ready come on! I thought anxiously as I watched people get off of the plane.

"Mimi!" I yelled once I saw her.

"Sora!" she yelled back running up to me.

"Oh my god, I can't believe your already here,"

"I know, isn't it exciting?"

"Yeah,"

"Micheal come over here," she called out to a guy.

"Micheal? A boyfriend I suppose," I said to her.

"No, Micheal a friend from New York,"

"yeah…sure…" I said.

The guy Micheal walked over to us. "Sora this is Micheal, Micheal this is my best friend Sora," she introduced us.

"Hey," I said.

He replied, "hey."

"So…let's go," I said.

"First I have to get my stuff," mimi said.

"okay, do you have a lot of stuff?" I asked.

"No, not much,"

"How much is not much?" I asked Michael worried.

"You'll see," he said with a smirk on his face.

"Oh great, I have a bad feeling about this," I mumbled.

We walked to the luggage belt thing to get Mimi's stuff. As she slowly gathered all her luggage. When she was done she had a whole pile that had about 10 suitcases. It took us a long time to get it all loaded into my car. By the time we got to Mimi's place it was 6:30pm. Mimi's parents have a house in Japan so when they visit they can stay there. I helped take her stuff inside.

Mimi

"I can't believe I'm in Japan again," I said sitting down on the couch.

"I know," Sora agreed.

"Too bad I have to go to school tomorrow," Mimi complained.

"Yeah but it's not that bad. We're doing the play, Romeo and Juliet," I said excitedly.

"Really, I love that play," I said.

"Me too," Sora said.

"Michael talk u seem so quiet,"

"Tomorrow we're gonna introduce you to our friends," Sora told him.

"Yeah that's a good idea. But let's not introduce him to Matt,"

"Whose Matt?" he asked.

"One of our frie-" Sora started.

"A jerk you don't want to meet," I cut in.

"He is not a jerk, he's one of our friends," Sora said

"He may be your friend but he's definitely not mine, all he is to me is a jerk," I snapped.

"Whoa! Anger," Sora said in a mocking tone.

"What has he done to you that makes you think he's a jerk?" Michael asked quietly.

"Well…um…he's self-centered, he annoys me, he thinks he's the 'cool' one or 'da man', and he thinks that he's so hot," I said.

"He doesn't think he's hot, girls think he's hot," Sora said defending him, "he's not a jerk, he's sweet, caring, funny, cool…." She continued drifting off into dream world.

"Hey Sora snap out of it," I said.

"Wha- what?" she stumbled.

"What were you thinking of? Or should I say who were you thinking of?" I asked curiously, even though I already had my suspicions.

"What are you talking about?" she asked nervously.

"I'm talking about the little world you just went into when you were talking about Matt," I said getting to the point.

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"Well," I started, "when you were talking about that jerk you started to have this dreamy gaze on your face, like you were dreaming about Matt, in other words you like him," I stated.

"No, I don't like Matt,"

"Yeah…sure…." I said laughing.

"I'm not kidding I don't like him, I like Tai, and besides Matt has a girlfriend. Her name is crystal," she said seriously.

"I thought you didn't like Tai," I said confused.

"I didn't but now I do,"

"Okay…whatever," I said.

"Um…I'm gonna go to sleep," I heard Michael say shyly.

"Why? It's early," Sora asked.

"Oh I get it, you don't feel comfortable talking 'girl talk.' "

"Yeah," he agreed.

"Okay, 'night' Sora and I said in unison.

" 'night," he replied and walked upstairs.

"I can't believe I'm back, it's been so long,"

"I know," Sora agreed, "Are you sure Michael is just a friend?" Sora asked curiously.

"Yeah, I'm sure, he is not my boyfriend and I don't like him," I assured her.

"Then who do you like?" she asked

"No one at the moment,"

"Yeah right, you have to like someone,"

"But I don't,"

"Come on you can tell me, you know you can," Sora pushed.

"I told you, I don't like anyone,"

"Fine don't tell me who you like,"

"I TOLD YOU I DON'T LIKE ANYONE! STOP BEING SO PUSHY!" I snapped at her.

"Whoa, calm down, I guess Matt was right about you," Sora said.

"What? Matt was right about what? What did he say about me?" I asked.

"Nothing, forget I said anything,"

"Come on tell me what he said about me," I asked again.

"He didn't say anything," she answered again.

"Then why did you say that Matt was right about me?"

"It didn't mean anything,"

"Come on why won't you tell me?" I asked.

"I just don't want to,"

"Please tell me," I pleaded.

"Fine, do you want the direct quote?" she asked.

"Yeah,"

"Okay…he said that you were whinney, annoying, snobby, and a complete bitch,"

"What?" I gasped.

"That's what he said,"

"UGH! HE'S SUCH A JERK! IF HE HAS A PROBLEM WITH ME WHY DIDN'T HE JUST TELL ME!" I yelled, "AND YOU AGREED WITH HIM I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU!"

"What are you talking about I didn't agree with him," Sora said.

"YEAH YOU DID! YOU SAID I GUESS MATT WAS RIGHT ABOUT YOU!" I yelled at her.

"SO THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING!" she yelled back.

"YEAH IT DOES! IT MEANS THAT YOU AGREE WITH MATT AND THINK I'M A BITCH!"

"WELL YOU'RE ACTING LIKE ONE RIGHT NOW!" Sora yelled.

"HOW ELSE AM I SUPPOSE TO ACT WHEN I FIND OUT THAT MY BEST FRIEND THINKS THAT I'M A BITCH!"

"I DUNNO! BUT YOU SHOULDN'T' YELL AT ME! I DEFENDED YOU WHEN MATT INSULTED YOU! YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL I'M YOUR BEST FRIEND!"

"WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN?" I asked.

"YOU'RE ALWAYS WHINING AND ALL YOU THINK ABOUT IS YOURSELF AND RIGHT NOW YOU'RE YELLING AT ME! I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU GOT THE CREST OF SINCERETY OR WHY I DEFENDED YOU WHEN MATT CALLED YOU A BITCH OR WHY I'M STILL YOUR BEST FRIEND?" she yelled at me.

Why did she insult me like that? What is her problem? I can't believe she said all that. Do I really act like a bitch? I can't believe my best friend doesn't want to be my best friend. I thought. When I heard her say those things I felt hurt and ran upstairs to my room and started crying.

Sora

I can't believe I said those things. She's not the bitch I'm the bitch. I've never hurt her like that before. I should apologize. But I don't even know if she'll talk to me anymore. Damn I'm such a bitch! She looked hurt. I'm gonna go apologize. I thought as I started walking upstairs. When I got to Mimi's room I knocked on the door.

"Mimi are you in there?" I asked. There was no answer all I heard were sobs. "Mimi I'm sorry I said all that stuff about you. None of it is true," I continued.

"Then why did you say it all?" she asked in between sobs.

"I was just mad at you, I really wanna be your best friend again. I know I was a bitch. I shouldn't have said all that stuff to you. Your friendship means a lot to me. We've been friends for a long time and I don't want to ruin it with a fight." I said. It was silent I didn't hear anything from Mimi's room. Then the door opened and she walked out.

"Do you really mean it?" she asked

"Yeah, of course I do," I replied with a smile, "I better go now, I'll see you at school tomorrow,"

"Okay, bye Sora" she said walking me to the door.

"Bye," I replied. And walked out the door and got into my car.

God that was a close one, she almost found out that I liked Matt. And I almost lost my best friend. I thought as I drove home. I wonder what will happen tomorrow with Mimi and Matt.

Next Day

Mimi

"HEY MIMI WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" I heard someone yell at me.

"What?" I said sleepily

"WAKE UP!" I heard the same person yell again.

"Mmm… I don't want to," I said rolling over to the other side of the bed.

"COME ON YOU HAVE TO! IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO WAKE UP AND GET READY FOR SCHOOL!"

"Leave me alone I want to sleep," I whined pulling a pillow onto my head.

"Your gonna be late unless you WAKE UP NOW!" the person yelled.

"Who are you anyway?" I asked.

"Open your eyes AND WAKE UP!"

"Stop yelling," I said opening my eyes.

"Good your finally awake," Michael said calmly.

"Why did you yell at me?" I asked.

"So you'd wake up, we're gonna be late so hurry up" he answered.

"Since when do you care if we're late for school or not?"

"Well I don't it's just that I'm new and I want to make a good impression on the teachers and stuff like that,"

"Oh you mean you want to be a suck up,"

"no……yeah"

"I'm gonna take a shower now I'll be down to eat in a few minuets," I said to him.

"Okay," he agreed and walked out of my room.

After I finished getting ready I walked downstairs to the kitchen and saw Michael stuffing his face.

"Hey, you're ready, eat," he said with his mouth full.

I sat down across from Michael and looked down at my plate of pancakes.

"Is something wrong?" Michael asked.

"No," I answered.

"Then why aren't you eating?"

"I'm just not that hungry," I lied.

"You see something is wrong, you always eat,"

"what? Are you implying that I'm a pig?" I asked angrily.

"no," he said nervously.

"Then are you saying that I'm fat?"

"no, no, you're definitely not fat," he said.

"Then why did you say that I always eat?" I asked seriously.

"Well it's true you do always eat but I didn't mean that you were a pig or that you were fat, because you're definitely not fat you have a great body and you look ho-" he stopped.

I was shocked. Does Michael like me? Aren't we just friends? We are just friends but why was he about to say that I'm hot. Should I be worried? No I shouldn't a lot of guys think I'm hot why shouldn't he? But what if he does like me what will happen? I thought.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Well I hope you liked this part, cuz I didn't. The next part should be up soon.
