Notes from Nayru: Hey everyone! I know you're all probably really freaked out right now… I don't like Tai/Biyomon pairings if you're all wondering… (I don't freak out every time they say a word to eachother… eh heh heh) I'm just being a freak. Well, read on and enjoy!
"Tai, at first I was excited to be working with you on this project, but now I really regret it…" Sora moaned.
Sora and Tai had been assigned this morning during Social Studies to do a project together. Sora thought it would be fun to work with a friend on a project… But all Tai was capable of doing after school at the library was annoy her.
"Sora! Why won't you go out with me anyway?" Tai complained.
"I've told you a million times… NO!" Sora grumbled.
"But why? Aren't you my friend?" Tai said, trying to go for the guilty approach.
Sora sighed and rested her chin in her hand for a moment.
"Seriously Tai, I think you just got hormones…"
Tai took a moment to comprehend this and then said "Hey!!" Sora smiled at him.
"Tai, could we please get something done today? I don't think we have a class called Sora Studies, alright?"
Tai gave her a weak smile "Alright… So what class is this for anyway?"
"TAI!" Sora yelled exasperatedly and was immediately shushed by a librarian.
"Just kidding, calm down Sora." Tai laughed at his own joke.
"Now head over to the 'Non-fiction' section over there," Sora said, pointing a finger to her right, "Go get some books to get some research from, alright?"
Tai mock saluted her before turning and heading towards the Non-fiction section.
"Ack… there's so many of these…" Tai whined.
He moved his fingers over the books to look for a title that would work for their project. He glanced over his shoulder at Sora who had moved herself to a computer and was busy typing something on it. He sighed. Wasn't there any way he was ever going to find true love? He always thought he and Sora would be perfect for each other, but OBVIOUSLY Sora thought differently. He didn't get it.
"Tai, you making any progress over there?" Sora called over to him. He straightened up. She smiled at him.
"Ye-yeah!" Tai stuttered. "I'm doing great!" Tai said as he grabbed a book and put it in his arms. He didn't even know what the book was, but it looked good for the moment. As soon as Sora turned her pretty head back to the computer Tai shoved the book back into the shelf and mentally prodded himself to find a book that was actually on their subject.
He began to run his fingers along the books again looking for a title that would fit. He finally found a book that would work and pulled it out and held on to it with one arm.
All of a sudden he felt a chilly finger touch his shoulder. Tai spun around and yelped and came face to face with a librarian that looked as if she was in her late nineties.
"Young man." The ancient librarian said. "Do you realize the library is about to close?" she said with such a tone one would have thought Tai had done a crime.
"Yo sorry, old lady. I'm moving, I'm moving." Tai said backing up with his hands in the air. "I-I'm just going to check this book out if that's okay…"
Tai backed into Sora. "Watch out for that crabby old librarian… I think she's going to grab her cane and whack us over the head with it. Library's closing." Tai whispered. Sora giggled at his interesting remark.
"I'm just going to check this out." Tai said turning towards the check-out desk. Sora logged off the computer and walked outside the doors of the library to wait for Tai. She sighed as she watched Tai through the door getting yapped at by another old librarian.
As Tai walked through the doors he turned to face Sora.
"Well, that was a nightmare. What is with all the crabby librarians? Can't they hire anyone under 100?" Tai rolled his eyes while Sora giggled.
"Can I walk you back to your apartment?" Tai asked Sora with the added puppy-dog eyes.
"Ugh… fine. As long as you don't ask me out again. I think I might go mad if you do." Sora said with a smile, which Tai couldn't decipher as being sarcastic or sincere.
"I think I can abide by those rules." Tai said stroking his chin.
"You better!"
"Tai, do you want to come in?" Sora said in front of the door to her house.
"Sure!" Tai said eagerly.
"The rule of "No hitting on Sora" still abides, alright?" Sora said with a questioning face looking for an answer.
"Alright. I shall try to obey the rules." Tai said with a mock firm nod.
"Then you may enter…" Sora said mysteriously as she opened the door to her house.
As they walked in Tai took a good look around Sora's house. He'd been there before, and he'd always liked it.
"You make yourself comfortable okay?—" Sora stopped as she saw Tai raising his eyebrows. "At a safe level alright?" she said rolling her eyes. "You can sit down, I'm going to the bathroom. Be right back!"
"Hey Sora! Hey Tai!" a familiar voice came from the living room.
"Biyomon!" Tai said shocked. "What are you doing out in the open?" Tai said, shocked.
"My parents are out of town for a week. So Biyomon can just roam free around the house while I'm at school." Sora said with a little nod. "Hey Biyomon! Missed ya!" Sora said as she walked over to Biyomon and gave her a small hug. "I'm going to the bathroom, I'll be out in the moment. For the meantime talk to Tai so he'll stop gawking around the house…"
Sora walked into the hallway and opened the door to the bathroom and walked in. Tai and Biyomon were left together… They had never really talked through their years in the Digimon World.
"So Biyomon, what's up?" Tai said uneasily.
"Not much Tai…" Biyomon said just as uneasily.
"How does she get Sora to hug her?" Tai mumbled a bit too loud.
"Tai? What was that?" Biyomon said giggling.
"How'd you hear that?" Tai said surprised and annoyed.
"You mumble very loud…" Biyomon said, still giggling.
"Uh…" Tai said embarrassed.
"It's okay Tai. Tell me your troubles." Biyomon said trying to be a mock pyschiatrist.
"Well… it seems like I'll never be able to get Sora to go out with me… It's hopeless... No matter how many times I ask her or butter up to her… It never works… She's always been like this for years… I've known her for a really long time, and she still can't take me as more than just a friend… I don't get it… I'll probably never go on a date in my life because I'll be stuck groping over Sora." Tai sighed. "I've said too much…"
"No, Tai, you've never been so open… Not even in all those years in the Digi-World… Wow, I'm impressed." Biyomon said comfortingly.
"Really?" Tai said hopefully.
Tai never got an answer, because before he could sense anything, Biyomon put her beak to his mouth. Tai just blinked.
"What is going on here?" came Sora's voice.
To be continued…
