A/N: Hey people! Sorry this took so long for me to get posted. First there was a flood, then that earthquake that knocked out the power, then.... Does anyone believe those excuses? (silence) I didn't think so. Ok the truth was I had a TON of homework and this was the last thing on my mind. Well enough about me. Thanks for the reviews, I truly am honored. About the spelling it was perfect it just didn't post properly. I've reposted and it's now readable. I'd like to thank Enchantress for your sympathy( my life has reverted back to it's normal state, or at least as normal as it can get.) and I love your stories so you reviewing mine is a real honor. Claire I love everything you've written, and your welcome. Blue wolf thanks, and keep writing. aRIA () thanks, coming from a Taiora fan that is a huge complement and since your reading this I've decided to add a little bit of Taiora friendship stuff in here just for you. It's not romance but it has it's own cuteness. Well I've
babbled enough so here's the story.
I don't own digimon.
Sora's POV
I sighed as I entered my house. It had been five long days since my argument with Matt and they had been the worst five day of my life. I went upstairs to my room and flopped down on my bed, tears welled up in my eyes. Matt had been the one person I could confined in. I had always gone to him with my problems, and he had done the same with me. But now who could I turn to. Then I remembered what Joe had said, I grabbed my phone and dialed his number. After a few rings his father picked up. "Hello, Kido residence Dr. Kido speaking how may I help you?" "Hi, Mr. Kido, it's Sora may I speak to Joe
please?" I asked. "Oh! Sora how nice to hear from you. Joe's out Christmas shopping with his mom, do you want me to tell him to call you when he gets in?" "Um, no thanks Mr. Kido it's not that important." "Ok. Well Merry Christmas!" "You too." I hung up and sighed. What was I going to do now. Joe wasn't home. For the millionth time this day regretted what I'd said to Matt, if I had been able to control my temper then this wouldn't have happened. 'Maybe Matt was right, I didn't deserve the crest of love.'
'I have to talk to someone, but who? Matt was the actual problem so he was definitely out of the picture. Joe was shopping. Izzy, no. He's a great friend, and a genius, but when it comes to emotional problems he's clue less. Mimi! No that won't work. It's long distance and my mom won't be happy when she sees the bill, and it's to personal to e-mail her, or chat on the net. T.K..? Nah, great kid but Matt's his brother and if I say something bad about Matt he might get mad. Or he might take my side and get mad at Matt. Tai? No. I already know what he'd say, "Forget about Matt, he's a jerk! If anything he should
apologize to you not the other way around!"' It made me chuckle to think of Tai's response. He's always had a slight grudge against Matt and I am his best friend so it was easy to see who's side he'd take. But still I knew Tai and Matt were closer than they let on. Then I remembered 'Kari!' I jumped of my bed and ran downstairs, grabbed my coat slipped on my shoes and quickly ran out the door, locking it behind me. I ran all the way to the Kamiya's apartment building and up the stairs to their house. Once outside the door I finally stopped to catch my breath a little then knocked on the door. To my surprise Tai
answered. "Hey Sora, what's up?" He asked. I had practically become part of the family over the years and me showing up at their door unannounced was normal. "Not much. Uh, is Kari here?" I noticed he looked surprised. In all the times I had been here I had never actually asked for Kari herself. "No. She's at T.K.'s doing homework. Is something wrong? Anything I can help with?" I smirked knowing what, I'm shore judging by his reaction, Tai didn't. Kari was most likely not doing homework at T.K.'s but rather out on a date with him, but I didn't say anything knowing Tai would never let her leave the house
again and would kill T.K... "It's not that big a problem and I'm pretty sure I know what you'd say, but thanks for offering." I said wile forcing a smile. "It's about Matt isn't it?" I was shocked. And he could tell. "Don't look so shocked. I know a little bit more about you than you think. Besides you've been moping around since that afternoon. I'm surprised that
you haven't talked to someone before this. Now get in here before you freeze and we'll talk about it." I just stared at him wide eyed for a moment completely dazed by what he'd just said. He grabbed my arm and pulled me in. Once inside I snapped back into reality and took of my coat and shoes. I walked over to the couch, the hockey game was on the t.v., and sat down. "want some tea?" I nodded. He came back and handed me a cup of tea, placed his down on the coffee table, then sat down so that his back was resting on the arm of the coach and curled up his feet so I still had room to sit. "We don't have to watch
the game if you don't want to." I smiled, he had realized when Mimi left that I didn't exactly always want to be one of the guys and that I was a girl too. I put the cup down on the coffee table and crawled up next to him and rested my head on his chest.( Remember their best friends and this is a Sorato so keep your minds out of the gutter.) "This is just fine, besides it's been awhile since we last watched a game together. To be honest I kind of miss just hanging out with you." He looked down at me. "Hey Sora. I was just thinking your all alone in your house right?" I nodded. "Well, why don't you stay here for the night. I mean we can watch the game, then you can cook super ,since I can't cook, then we can talk about your little problem over dinner, by then Kari should be home, and you always keep a spare pair of clothes here and pajamas and my parents won't mind so..." Like I said I'm practically part of the family and I keep a pair of spare clothes here in case Tai and I
are
out playing and my clothes get dirty, or Mr. and Mrs.Kamiya decide to go out I normally come to make dinner and stay with Tai and Kari, their parents don't want to leave them alone because of the incident were Kari caught phenomena and neither one can cook, and since their parents normally stay out late I end up sleeping over. "Sure Tai. I'd love to stay."
He smiled. "Great!" "Let's watch the game now."
Once the hockey game ended I started to make dinner. "Do you need any help?" he asked while looking over my shoulder. "Yah, you can set the table." We both started laughing. Suddenly the doorbell rang. "Coming!" Tai yelled as he went to get the door. "Hey, Kari, T.K.. Come on in, Sora's making dinner." "I was wondering what smelt so good." Kari said as she joined me in the kitchen. " It's a good thing your here. I was afraid we'd end up having to eat something Tai cooked. Or worse takeout!" "What's wrong with takeout?" I asked. "We've been eating it all week. Mom keeps burning the food." Tai said
as he joined us with T.K.. "More like you keep resetting the timer while mom's not looking." Kari teased "Well if I didn't do something we'd be suck eating that fat free health food junk that mom insists we eat before every holiday that has a huge dinner in it." Tai said trying to defend his actions. "Oh! That reminds me my family's getting together for
Christmas and my mom and I really need to go shopping for food, all we have are a bunch of tv dinners since neither of us can cook. Matt's got a list five miles long, but he's far too busy to go shopping. Although it's more like he's far too lazy." T.K. stated as we burst out laughing. But I soon stopped as I thought about my Christmas. I was going to be all alone.
My parents were busy and all of my friends were too. I sighed, and looked down at the ground my thoughts immediately went to Matt. I was glad he'd be having a good Christmas since I had gone with T.K. to help him convince his mom that it would be a good idea. They had invited me to join them but now... I would need to think up a good excuse not to go. I guess the others noticed that I was upset because they were all staring at me. T.K. placed his hand on my shoulder and looked at me sorrowfully. "Sorry I sort of forgot that you and Matt were angry at each other. I didn't mean to upset you Sora." "It's ok T.K. I'm not mad at you I just miss him that's all. It has nothing to do with you. Although I'm shocked he told you, and I truly am sorry for what I did, and said." "You don't need to apologize to me, or him. Truthfully I don't think your to blame, I've told him that and to be honest he agrees. Although he isn't all that happy about what you said he still feels that he's
responsible and blames himself. Ya know, he misses you too." T.K. said as he stared at me with those gentile blue eyes that resemble his brothers. One of the features I love about Matt. 'Whoa! Were did that thought come from?' But it's true, now that I think about it I love him. I always have. That's why it's hurting me so much to be away form him, and why I depend upon him. 'How could I have not noticed before? Why did I have to be so stupid!?' "Well why doesn't he apologize then!? You said he misses her and he knows it's his fault so what's he waiting for!? They'll both be a lot happier and everyone else will be happy so..." Tai yelled braking me train of thoughts. " Tai has a point. If Matt's truly sorry then he should apologize." Kari added. I sighed (Yes again! She does that way too often but then again she is depressed.) and shuck my head. "It's because when it comes to
feelings and being right and wrong Matt's even more stubborn than Tai. He won't apologize unless he's absolutely sure I'll accept, and that means I'll have to apologize (I use that word way to much) first. If he does apologize it'll rune his reputation as being Mr. Cool if I don't accept. So he won't take the chance!" I explained. "Sora's right. Matt isn't one to apologize
or show his soft side in public." T.K. agreed. "So why don't you (T.K.) tell him that she misses him and have him apologize to her at her house?" Tai asked. "Because he won't believe me! He needs to hear her say it." T.K. replied "I've got it! Why doesn't Sora get him a Christmas present? It'll let him know that she misses him, but technically she's not
apologizing." Kari suggested. "Kari that's brilliant!" I yelled as I hugged her. BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP! "Oh, the food's ready." I said as I released Kari and brought the food to the table.
After dinner we went and rented a movie. When we got back Kari and T.K. immediately curled up together on the smaller couch wile Tai and I made the popcorn. When we walked out Tai freaked at the fact that they were kissing. "What are you two doing!" "Taichi Kamiya calm down! They're just kissing! Geez, what's the big deal!" I shouted at him. "The big deal is they aren't even dating and they're 11!" "Tai we've been dating for three months now the only reason you didn't know was because we knew you'd react like this" Kari said trying to defend herself. "Besides you were 10 when you started dating seriously." I added, wile hugging him. "Whatever. Just don't start frenching or anything else ok." Tai said trying to be nice. Kari and T.K. both smiled and hugged him. "Thanks Tai! And don't worry I won't do anything that I shouldn't be doing." T.K. stated reassuringly. Tai smiled and we all curled up like before.
When the movie ended Kari and T.K. were fast asleep. Tai went to wake them up. "Kar..." "Shh. Let them sleep." I whispered as I grabbed a blanket from the closet. "Ok. Umm... Sora for how long did you... umm I mean... when did you fined out and who else knows?" Tai stuttered trying to fined the right words. "Well first off I'm the only one who knows, aside from maybe a few friends of theirs, and I found out when they wanted to go out together." "Oh." "Tai don't feel bad. Kari still loves you it's just that well... she's growing up and she needs a female roll model, your still the best to her but there are some thing she
just doesn't feel comfortable talking to you about. Look on the bright side, at least she's coming to me and not some stranger or a friend that might not have the proper answers." I said. He smiled. "I guess your right. I mean I'd have no clue what to do if she came to me with those girlie problems, if you know what I mean. It's just that I worry that she's going to get herself into trouble and I won't be there to help." "Don't worry if there's anything I think you should know about I'll tell you. K?" "Thanks Sora, and I'm sorry" I stared at him unsure if I really just heard that. 'Did Tai just apologize to me?' "Why?" "Well thank you
because I'm glad you'll look out for my sister when I can't and sorry for all the times when I've been wrong but you've had to apologize. You mean alot to me Sora, your like an older sister to me and I just want you to know that I appreciate it and that if you ever need anything I'm always hear for you and I don't ever want that to change. I love you to much to loose you." (That was in a just friends way. Friends can say they love each other too.) I hugged him tightly letting the tears I've held in for so long to flow freely. "I love you to Tai and no matter what you'll always be my best friend."
