Tai: So, do I get with Sora?

Phoenix: Where the &@*$ did you come from?!

Tai: Duh, the story!

Phoenix: You've never spoken before. I just figured you were shy…

Sora: Him, shy?!

Phoenix: You too??!!

Sora: What did you expect, me to just sit there and take his crap. *looks towards Tai* Sorry hunny-bun, but it had to be said.

Tai: 'Hunny-bun'?! Why I aughta…..! *waves balled fists at Sora*

Sora: *Sarcastically* Ooooo, I'm so scared!

Phoenix: *Sighs* Guys….

Tai: Come here, you! *Runs after Sora*

Sora: Aaaaahhhhhh! *Runs away as fast as she can giggling*

Phoenix: At last. Maybe I can get some story done now. Remind me to never work with them ever again.



Part V: Awakenings

Sora woke up from her sleep to find herself in a hospital room. *How did I end up here? The last thing I remember was me and Tai on the bench and we kissed an then ... nothing.* Then she looked to her left and noticed Tai flopped onto the foot of her bed. *Aw, he must have been here the whole time.* She stared at him for a while, he was asleep because his eyes were shut and his hair was spread over the bed, but she noticed that there were beads of sweat on his forehead. She sat up and reached down to shake him awake. *What was he doing to make him so exhausted?* She shook him gently to start with, then harder when he didn't wake up.

"Tai, it's me, Sora. Tai" She said softly to him. But he still didn't wake up. She shook him harder.

"Tai! Wake up! Tai, it's Sora, I'm alright!" She was pleading to him now in desperation. Eventually, he stirred a little.

"Sora..." He mumbled weakly.

"Tai, I'm awake. I'm here with you."

"Sora, you're ok ... awake."

She was so relieved that he was all right. The spark was starting to return to his eyes and his spirit was as strong as ever. He began to sit up in his chair and rubbed his eyes to refocus.

"Sora. It worked. I don't believe it! You're ok! You are ok, aren't you?" There was the concern in his eyes again, it made her fell all warm and fuzzy inside.

"I'm fine, look at me. What happened to me, why am I in here? Tell me the whole story." She was curious and he seemed like the only one who knew the truth.

"Ok, this is what happened. You remember us kissing, right?"

"Of course" She blushed.

"Well, after that you kinda doubled over in pain and passed out, right there in my arms. Then we took you to the hospital, the doctors didn't know what was wrong with you, so they brought you here. I didn't know what to do, you were just so still and vulnerable, I felt I had to do something at least. I got our Digivices together and wished with all my heart that you would get better. I don't know what happened then, but I think that I somehow gave my energy to you, which made you better. I think."

She was quite confused by the explanation but was very happy that he had stayed here with her when she was sick.

"Do you reckon that they'll let me out of here now?"

"It's the middle of the night!"

"Oh. Maybe in the morning then. You can go home if you like, I'll be fine here."

"No way. I'm staying here until you leave. We're leaving together."

"Ok. I'm gonna go to sleep, are you gonna be Ok there?" She was worried that his parents might be concerned about him.

"I'll be fine. I'll have a nap too. See you in the morning."

She closed her eyes, making sure that the last thing that she saw was Tai.

When morning came, the sun was shining in through the thin hospital curtains onto Tai's face, waking him up with a start. He saw that the warm sun was also shining on Sora's face, making her look serene and peaceful. As he was staring at her, she woke up with a start, looking straight at him. Almost as if she knew that he was watching her.

"Good morning, sleepy head." He whispered to her sweetly.

"Morning Tai." She said back, "I just wanna get out of here now, when do you think they'll let me out?"

"Your mom will be here soon. She'll make sure that you get out." They chatted for a while about several things until Mrs. Takenouchi came to sign Sora out. After all the proper procedures were out of the way, Tai left the room so that she could get changed out of the hospital gown and back into her normal clothes. A few minutes passed, then she came out of the room, right as rain, ready to leave with Tai.

"Ready to go?" He asked just to make sure.

"Sure," she replied, "Lets go"

He still couldn't believe how well she looked after being so ill just last night, her skin had a healthy glow and her hair was shining with vitality. He took her hand in his so that they could share each other's warmth and strode out of the hospital doors and out into the summer sunshine, heads held high so that the world could see that they were in love.

Phoenix: Can you guys get outta here now? I have a Matt story to work on.

Tai: MATT! I should be the star of every story you write, not him!

Phoenix: You're lucky to be in this one. Gogglehead.

Tai: What did you call me?!

Sora: Tai! *This time grabs him round the waist and carries him* Let's just leave, Phoenix is gonna kill us all off if you carry on like this!

Phoenix: You better believe it! Now get outta my story, you're taking up too much valuable writing space.

Sora: We're going already! *Slings Tai over her shoulder* Let's go Tai.

Tai: I'm not finished with you! I'll be back!!

Phoenix: …..Whatever.
