Wow. I just looked at the date I last posted a chapter up for this. I
really didn't think it had been that long since I'd written something.
NewayZ, I'm really sorry for the long wait. This chapter is dedicated to
Lady Espelle and her hatred of Sora :P
Enjoy!
Chapter 13
Tai's P.O.V
I sat at our usual table my head facing one direction but my eyes looking in another. At something in particular, well two people to be more exact.
My little sister and my best friend, I watched them as they laughed together and kept staring into each other's eyes.
I didn't quite know what to make of it yet. I mean, she was my little sister, I was supposed to look out for her and do the protective older brother thing. But if I was honest with myself, and as much as it pained me to admit it, I'd never actually seen either of them this happy before.
Yamato was grinning from ear to ear and Kari was blushing and dipping her head only to have Yamato move his hand to her chin and gently tilt her head back up, smiling at her as he did.
I guessed that they'd sat over there in the hope that they wouldn't be noticed by anyone. And in truth they hadn't, well except for me. But I'd been watching them since I'd seen them both in the alley behind the cafeteria.
Everyone else was busy with their own conversation; their own lives and it seemed that none of them had noticed that my little sister and my best friend were falling in love with each other.
I sighed and brought my spoon to my mouth, eating the cereal on the end of it. I was still watching them with my head tilted in the opposite direction in the hope that I wouldn't bring too much attention to them.
I didn't quite know why, but I really didn't want other people knowing about what was clearly their business. I knew how popular Matt was, and how many girl's were going to be heart broken and more than likely murderous when they found out that he was no longer available.
I was suddenly brought back to reality by a hand that was being waved in my face. I turned to look at its owner.
"Anyone alive in there?" Sora asked, obviously annoyed that I'd spaced out for a while. "Sorry." I replied, spooning more food into my mouth. "I was just thinking about something."
"What?" She asked, still smiling at me.
"Nothing." I replied and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
I grinned inwardly as she blushed but said nothing. I had more important things on my mind, as I had just spotted someone else at Kari and Matt's table. Someone who was making Matt look particularly angry.
"So where are Kari and Matt?"
"Huh?" I spun my head round to look at the group. "What?"
"Where are Kari and Matt." Sora asked again. "They haven't sat with us for the past couple of days now. Do they even come down for breakfast anymore?"
"Well, you live with her don't you." I replied
"Yes." She stated sounding slightly annoyed. "But she's your sister and you live with Matt."
I shrugged my shoulders. "Maybe they're just not hungry."
"Fine." She said. Now staring at her sausage and bacon like she was about to hurt it. I sighed. "I'm sorry, Sor, I've just got a lot on my mind is all. I didn't mean to snap at you."
She was still staring at her sausage, but the thing didn't look like it was about to be murdered anymore. So sighing again I turned to face her.
"Really. I didn't mean to snap or to make you mad. I've really just been thinking about a lot of things recently, and like Matt always says, me thinking is not such a good idea as it seems to hurt me too much."
She smiled and laughed at me. "Look, I don't mind you thinking about things ok, and contrary to what Matt thinks, I don't believe thinking is bad for you, just don't shut me out, ok?"
"Couldn't if I wanted to." I grinned back at her. But never got to finish my sentence as there was suddenly a large eruption of sound from the direction in which I'd been staring before. I turned to look at what all the commotion was about I saw a very pissed off Matt with his fist rammed up against some guys neck, whilst holding him against the nearby wall.
Yamato's P.O.V
I couldn't believe the nerve of that jerk! We'd been sitting at our table happily eating breakfast and discussing the dance in a couple of days when that jackass Tom, had come up and started hitting on Kari! Didn't he ever get the message?
I sat there, getting angrier and angrier each time a different word came out of his mouth. How many times did I have to explain to him that he didn't stand a chance with Kari and I wasn't about to let her go without a fight?
I snapped out of my dark daydream and looked up at him sharply.
"Come on babe, you know you want to go with me." He said to her. "We'd have so much fun together."
"No thank you Tom." She stated quite clearly. "I'm already going with someone."
"Who?" He asked, looking slightly taken aback.
"Me." I growled standing up and facing him. "Now if you don't mind, we're eating."
"Oh but babe, come on." He whined at her. "I could take you places you've never been before." He raised his eyebrows suggestively.
That jerk!
And before I'd really thought about what I was doing I grabbed hold of his shirt and shoved him up against the nearest wall.
Ignoring Kari's pleas, I turned to him.
"Listen to me you irritating little shit, Kari is taken. She's not interested in you at all. So back off and leave her in peace!"
I watched him breaking into a sweat. He didn't want to give up on her either, but in this position.
"Jeez, relax man, I get it. She's taken by you and I'm not to try anything." He said cockily, but with a slight stutter.
I glared at him and slowly let go of his shirt, waiting for him to back off.
"Keep away from her, do you understand?"
He scowled at me, but nodded his head reluctantly. "I'll leave her alone."
I watched him saunter off towards the exit of the hall and turned to face Kari.
"You shouldn't have done that, Matt." Kari whispered.
"Look." I began, but she moved her head and indicated to me to look behind and as I did I already guessed what was coming.
K, short chapter, but I'm at home for a few days and I have a holiday coming up where I will update at least one of my other fics, promise! Hope this made up for my lack of interest in writing another chapter.

Enjoy!
