I don't own digimon k?




*The Perfect Seduction*



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





Zeek groaned and stretched out the pain in his back from his hard days work. Smiling lazily he threw himself back to land on his bed making it creak and moan under his weight. He flipped his hands behind his head and looked up to the ceiling when his eyes wouldn't let sleep overtake them. His mind began to wander as he made out a bunny outline on the ceiling. What about Mimi? Who would she be happy with? Well it was obvious she was quite happy with both men and vica versa. But what did *she* want? It was then that he realized that ever since she had come into his life that he had made her stay for Boss, not herself. He knew their gang rival very little if at all so he had no idea how he would react if she chose boss over him.

But their was just something about his Boss that made him think that he was hanging on by a string. And Mimi was that string. Then again, he also knew that Mimi was not ready to be his thread of sanity. He smiled at the thought of the ever so perky teen that was his only light in the dark castle and uglyness of his job. She always reminded him of his own southern boy child hood. Zeek moaned and tapped his forehead at the start of a headache. 'Thinking 'bout Boss's lady's future ain't my job' He thought laughing a little.

It was then that he felt he wasn't alone in the room. Cautiously yet naturaly so as not to creep is intruder's suspicion he sat up, still rubbing his forhead naturaly as if in pain yet looking around the room at the same time. Zeek then spotted a pair of catlike saphire eyes staring coldly at him in the shadows of the corner of his room. Averting his eyes he krept his hand back to reach his belt gun, as if to just scratch and itch.

"I wouldn't do that." The voice behind the eyes said.

Zeek's head snapped up and he laughed reassured.

"Boss! You had ol' Zeek goin' there for a sec. Whatchu be doin' here?"

"Just to ask you the question of the day." Matt said calmly, walking out of the shadow revealing his body.

Zeek plopped happily back on his bed with hands behind his head and looked at the blond leader.

"What that be boss?"

Matt continued to pace the room calmly and quietly. It was a while before he spoke and Zeek was about to ask again.

"How'd the clubbing go?"

"Huh? Oh the dancin'! Yeah, Miss.Mimi had herself a ball! I swear that girl there can dance! Thought she's gonna run a hole through the floor!" Zeek laughed.

"Must've been hard to dance with her all night. Especially with that music exiting her."

Zeek's eyes faultered a bit. That was it. That was the slip up Matt had been waiting for. So thats where it happened.

Zeek gulped and stared a little nervously at his boss. He could never lie and get away with it. Even when he spoiled his dinner with a cookie and fibbed to mama she always found out. The memory almost made him smile and forget his uncomfortable position. Since he didn't retort quick enough Matt continued.

"Yeah. You were never good at slow dances. Are you sure you didn't hurt her? You usually slip a little with your strength when you're nervouse."

That didn't even *begin* to describe the turmoil Zeek was feeling now.

"Must've been hard to keep the gawkers away also." Matt laughed.

Zeek practically choked right there.

"Must've been too hard since Taichi was there."

Zeek chocked and fell off the side of his bed. He landed on his knees and began to cough. Matt stared down at him unphased.

"Tell me everything."

Zeek looked up at Matt shaken and nervous.

"H-How'd you find out Boss?"

"Strike one." Matt pulled out a hand gun and pointed it at Zeek.

"Three strikes you're out."

Zeek stared at the man that was like his brother quivering.

"I-I promised Miss.Mi-"

"Strike two." Matt cocked the gun's silencer.

"MISS.MIMI AIN'T DONE NOTHIN'!!"

Matt blinked but kept the gone level with his face waiting for more.

"I-It was that other man. Mimi tell me to go dance with that purdy colored lady. I didn't wan' leave 'er but I gotta. Stacia was the lady I's be dancin' with. She asked for a drink so I go's and gets one. But when I come back there's the other brown haired man kissin' 'er. I-I beat 'im up real good like boss! I left with Miss.Mimi and she started beggin' me not ta tell ya! She's got those big puppydog like eyes and I had ta say yes. It wasn't her faulnt boss! I-I couldn't tell ya!"

Matt didn't speak and Zeek was about to look up at him to see if he was paying attention. Finally Matt chose the chance to speak but did not lower his gun.

"You thought I'd hurt her." It was more of a statement than a question.

Zeek stared at the floor in awe but Matt didn't notice. Suddenly his eyes took on a sad look but he kept his head down. He was on all fours but was sitting on his back legs.

"You hurtin' her now." He whispered more to himself but Matt heard.

He yanked Zeek's chin up and punched him straight across the jaw. Zeek pretended to go back with the strength of the punch just to get Matt to leave him alone. Even though Matt was as strong as they came Zeek was an extremely big man, so there was little that could actually hurt him. But his jaw did sting a bit. A sure sign that it was going to be a little sore tomarrow.

"Don't patronize me Ezichial." Matt growled.

Zeek stared up at him, his loyalty making him unable to do anything.

"I want you off my property and territory by dawn. I won't be held responsible if my guys take you off the protection list." Matt whispered walking out of the room.

Zeek stared at the empty room. He gulped down his sorrow and began to pack his bags. Mama said boys don't cry Mama said boys don't cry Mama said boys don't cry. He chanted to himself over and over again.




*********




"HE DID WHAAAAAAAAATTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Mimi screeched.

"I sorry Miss.Mimi. I didn't have any control over it." Zeek murmured.

"H-HE CAN'T!! HE DOESN'T HAVE THE RIGHT!!!!"

"Guess he does." Zeek laughed trying to brighten the mood.

"B-but you have no protection now, whe're you going to go? Matt sees you as much as an enemy as Tai-" Mimi stopped in mid-sentence, an idea forming in her head. "Taichi." She said the name again.

"Miss.?"

"Taichi! Thats it! Go to Tai! Tell him its a personal favor to me! He'll give you the protection that you need."

Zeek shook his head with a frown.

"Ain't no way! Mama tought me ta be loyal! I ain't no traitor Mimi."

"You're not the traitor Zeek."

"..........." Zeek turned away.

"Please Z. For me? I can't live my life knowing you could be dead and its all my faulnt."

"Ain't nothin' your fauln't. I had ta stand up ta Boss sometime right?" Zeek smiled.

Mimi returned the smile and nodded.

"But the brown haired man won't let me in. Not after the way I beat 'im."

Mimi stared at him in thought finally she looked down at the engagment ring Matt had given her.

"Here give him this. If thats the price for you safety then its on sale!" Mimi smiled fakely twisting off her ring and laying it in Zeek's palm.

"Miss.Mimi I can'-"

"I won't hear of it! No get!"

Zeek stared sadly with tears in his eyes at the girl who had given him so much. He turned around to leave her room but whipped back around and crushed her in a hug.

"I gonna miss you Mimi."

"You too Z. Alot."




**********




Matt leaned by in the arm chair staring at the fireplace. The quiet of the livingroom put him at ease untill he heard the pitter of bare feet step into the room. Quiet sniffles and a controlled sob or two claimed distress.

"YOU BASTARD!!!"

Matt poured more red wine into his cup.

"Can I help you."

Mimi walked over infront of his chair and glared daggers down to him. Tears streaked her face and waterfalled her eyes.

"How could you? You monter!!"

"Wine?" Matt held the glass up only to be smacked out of his hand and shattered on the floor. Yamato got up intending to pick up the shattered glass only to be met halfway by Mimi stepping infront of him.

"Zeek didn't do a thing!! I practically threw myself at his feet for him not to tell you!"

"Get out of my way Mimi."

Mimi stared up at him in horrid awe. Her eyes narrowed as she drew back her hand with lightening speed and slapped him across the face. His head snapped to the side and he licked the blood off his lip as he turned to face her.

"Thats it. Use your fists, not your words."

"Why?! When words can hurt so much more!"

"(sigh) Believe what you want, now let me get that mess before it stains."

"You're such a coward Ishida! Threatened by every man who you think poses competition!"

"Words Mimi."

"HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO HIM?!"

"Words."

"I HATE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Matt dropped the wine bottle and stared at her in horror. Mimi smirked.

"Just words Ishida? Hah! That certainly got to you!." Mimi sneered in repulsion. "You're the most selfish thing on two legs! You dragged me here, raped me, and expect me to be happy!! YOU SHOULD HAVE LET ME DIE! IT'D BE A HELL OF A LOT BETTER THAN BEING HERE WITH A BASTARD LIKE YOU-" She was cut off by the sudden grip on her shoulder and the slam of her back against the wall.

He was milli-meters away from her face. His eyes glared into her as he growled. Mimi had never felt more afraid of him in her life.

"Y-You think you scare me! I'm sick of yo-"

"DON'T.LEAVE." Of all the words in the japanese language that was the least of what she had expected from him. Mimi stared in awe at him as her body convulsed in fear against the wall. Even as he glared at her she could see the crystal tears lining his eyelid. His chest rose and fell as he panted in hysteria.

"Don't leave me."He whispered.

"DON'T LEAVE ME!" He sobbed, his tears finally taking their rightful place as he crushed himself to her. Holding her far too tight yet too afraid to let go.

"I need you." He sobbed loosing any strength he had left.

Mimi's eyes were as wide as dinner plates as she slid herself and Yamato down the wall not being able to support his weight anymore. He sobbed and convulsed against her and she gently moved his face to her neck for him to cry against her. Murmurs of I need you's and don't leave me's caressed the air. And the only thing running through Mimi's mind was how she ended up here.




**********




Taichi Kamiya raised his arm, his thumb pointing outward as taixi's wizzed by. His old sensei was arriving at the airport today and he was supposed to pick him up.

"TAIXIIIIIIIII!!!!!!" More taxi's flew by as if fleeing from him. He growled at this.

"I'M NOT SMELLING MY ARMPIT I ACTUALLY NEED A RIDE!!!" He yelled.

"(chuckle) Do you honestly thing they're going to stop for someone who will probably shoot them when they ask for a tip?"

Tai whirled around and came face to face with a suite case filled Yuchiru. Taichi smiled warmly at his old teacher.

"Sensei, what're you doing here? I was supposed to pick you up." He asked taking the bags out of his hands.

"I may be old but I can still handle myself little Taichi." He scolded waving his finger.

Tai smiled and rolled his eyes.

"Think you can help me get a taxi for us?" Tai asked.

Yuchiru frowned disapprovingly.

"Mr.Kamiya has all my teaching taught you nothing? Why do you think *feet* were invented?"

"To work the gas peddle."

Yurchiru rolled his eyes heaven ward and began walking to the mansion. Laughing Tai began to follow in suit.




**********




"(pant pant pant) C'mon Sensei!(wheeze) Couldn't I use just *one* of the servants to help me with this!?" Tai whined as he dragged the suitcases up the winding stairs.

"Nonsense, its good exercise." The old man called from the top of the stairs.

Taichi glared up at him as he finally stepped over the last to steps. Where he fell to the floor exhausted.

"Mr.Kamiya you're completely out of shape!"

Taichi immediately jumped up.

"No way! I'm the complete vision of health!" Taichi argued.

"Fine then lets go to my room so you can help unpack my bags."

Tai fell back down and gripped his chest.

"Kay, just(pant) give me a minute."

Sensei rolled his eyes and sighed.




**********




Taichi threw himself on Yuchiru's bed after the unpacking was completed. He looked over to the dresser and found a picture of a five year old him. He chuckled but smiled as he saw the pink frame it was in. Just like Mimi's hair. His smile widened as he thought of the beautiful siren that held his heart in her palm.

"So who's the chick."

Yuchiru's voice broke him out of his riviere.

"SENSEI!"

"What? Thats what you young people are calling beautiful women today is it not?"

"Yeah, but-but you're old." It was the only excuse he could think of.

"Hmph watch it!"

Taichi immediately zipped his mouth.

"Now tell me who she is."

"What makes you think there's a she?"

"Ok tell me who *he* is."

Taichi glared at his old sensei as he smiled mischieviously.

"Well only a women could make a man act as stupid and sentimental as you are now."

"(sigh)*Her!* name is Mimi."

"Quite the cheeky name."

"(chuckle) yeah."

"I bet she's beautiful."

"Gorgeous."

"She's probably everything you could ever want."

"And more."

"She's probably quite a women."

"Perfect."

"She probably belongs to someone else."

"Matt."

"It probably hurts when you think of her with him."

"I have to clutch my chest to keep it from killing me."

"She probably loves you too."

"I don't know."

"She probably hurts you."

"Everytime."

"She won't come to you willingly."

"Never."

"She probably always takes what she needs from you."

"She can have it."

"She probably poses the biggest threat to the entire system."

"She's starting a gang war."

"........"

"......."

"And yet you love her more than life its self."

"More."
