This is the last bit. I almost feel like apologising for the last chapter. It was pretty bad and..well strange to write. Ugh gave myself a creepy feeling the way i was writing Jyou. Oh well ya can't fig the idea's your mind comes up with when high on pop and cookies! Here's the last bit!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Four boys sat around a camp fire and listened intently to taichi's explanation of what had happened to him. He was shocked to know how long it had been considering Takeru hadn't been able to tell him more then a *long* time. To him it had only been a day.

Afterwards they'd eaten and gone to sleep curling up into their blankets. Yamato lay there his thoughts circling while he cuddled his brother close. That was one thing he'd been happy about. Takeru had been okay.

*I almost wish Taichi wasn't.*

If taichi hadn't come back he wouldn't be lying here guilt ridden. He couldn't tell Taichi what had happened while he'd been in the real world. Just couldn't.

About an hour after they'd laid down to sleep Taichi got up and knelt beside Yamato, giving his shoulder a shake. He didn't want to move but looked up anyway. He knew what was coming. Taichi's wonderfully rich brown eyes smiled down on him and he tilted his head to the side.

"Come on, lets go somewhere else."He whispered as not to wake Jyou or Takeru up.

Yamato nodded and got up following Taichi past the light of the camp fire and into the nights gloom. He didn't want to be alone with taichi. He'd know something was wrong and ask him about it. But he couldn't tell him. He couldn't.

Once a safe distance away from the camp Taichi stopped and turned around quickly wrapping his arms around Yamato tightly.

"I missed you. Even if it was just a day or two I missed you!" He said into the taller boys shoulder.

Yamato had stiffened the minute Taichi's arms had wrapped themselves around him and he just couldn't make himself hug back. Taichi noticed the lack of returning affection and stepped back a frown on his face. Though he kept his arms around Yamato's waist.

"What's wrong? Yamato?" He asked looking a bit surprised at Yamato's standoffish behaviour.

Taichi tried to look him in the eyes but he quickly looked down and to the side. He wished he could walk away but Taichi had a death grip on his waist. His mind an around in circles trying to figure out a way out of this situation.

~~~~~~~~~~~Taichi

In the space of a few days Taichi had learned something about himself. He hated being away from Yamato. The quiet blonde had always been in the corner of his mind. When he got back he couldn't wait to find him again. Now he'd learned something else, he didn't like it when Yamato completely shut him out.

He'd sensed something was wrong with Yamato the minute he'd gotten back. He was quiet but that was normal. He just seemed unsure of himself and drifty, as if he was lost in his own thoughts.

So Taichi had gotten up and dragged Yamato out here to give him a proper greeting and to find out what was wrong. It worried him when Yamato didn't hug him back and when Yamato didn't answer his question and looked away Taichi became even more worried.

"Yamato what's wrong?"He asked quietly ducking his head down a little as to force Yamato to look at him.

He was shocked when Yamato jerked his head back and raised his arms pushing Taichi away. The wild haired brunette stepped back in surprise and looked at Yamato's back in hurt. The blonde walked a few feet away a shadowy figure in the half light from the moon.

*What is going on!*

Taichi thought as he stared at Yamato's stiff form.

*What happened to him? Why isn't he talking to me?*

Not being one to just give up Taichi walked forward again and wrapped his arms around Yamato. He rested his head against his shoulder. Yamato was trembling to his surprise and Taichi held him tighter.

"Yama-chan," he started using his nickname for the boy which Yamato said was too childish and girlie to use.

"Please what's wrong? You know you can tell me anything."

Yamato just shook his head seemingly staring at his shoes. But when Taichi slid around to Yamato's front he saw that his eyes were tightly closed and a tell tale glimmer ran along their rims. He raised a hand and brushed away the tears confusion clouding his mind.

"Yama-kun," he said more serious this time.

"I don't understand why you wont tell me what's wrong but please don't brush me off like this without reason." he said holding Yamato's trembling body close to his.

The Yamato seemed to relent and quickly raised his arms and crushed Taichi to him sobbing into his shoulder. Taichi controlled his curiosity and held him offering what comfort he could.

He held Yamato for he knew not how long but eventually they ended up with him sitting in the grass, Yamato's head cradled in his lap. Whiled he'd stopped crying and was responding again to Taichi's being there he wasn't talking. Taichi wasn't about to force him to either. He just sat there stroking back Yamato's hair while he looked up at Taichi with sad eyes.

"Taichi?" He said, speaking for the first time.

"Yes Koi?" Taichi answered giving Yamato a gentle smile.

"I'm sorry." He said looking at Taichi as if his heart would break.

Taichi blinked back unsure of what Yamato could possibly have to be sorry about. He didn't speak for a while. Somehow he knew if he was to except this strange apology he'd have to mean it. He was also sure he'd never find out what it was Yamato was apologising for.

*Whatever it is I don't care.*

He thought determinedly. He leaned down and kissed Yamato gently on the lips. As he leaned back he saw the slight glimmer of hope in Yamato's eyes.

"It's okay Yamato." He said solemnly and was rewarded by a faint smile.

Taichi just hoped he'd get a real smile out of him soon.

"Ashiteru...." Yamato mumbled from his lap.

His eyes had closed and he was apparently falling asleep. Taichi smiled and continued to stroke his silky hair and watched over his sleeping love as he slept.
