Author's Note: Ho-e?! Some mean reviews, grr! Oh, well. Some jerk was posting that my fic sucked and all he read was the first page. What an inconsiderate person. I just started with the fic yesterday, give me a break! Rome wasn't built in a day (I rather hated that saying, too overused), and this fic will definitely not be done very quickly. I hope you've enjoyed it, otherwise, you might have dropped the fic and decided not to read it. ;_; (Ack, I hate the number 6.)

Chapter 06
SWIRLS of dark clouds began to blanket the sky when Mimi and Sora left the school building to go shopping out at the nearby shopping centres. It was the least of Mimi's expectations that she'd left her wallet on her bedside drawer that the two made a compromise and instead headed for a coffee shop. She bought an ice cold frappucino with the remaining amount of money that she had brought with her. The two took a seat facing one another and began a conversation.
"Hey, Mimi," Sora began taking a sip from the latte she got. "I was wondering if you can go on a double date with me and Tai tonight. You have a boyfriend, right?"
Mimi shook her head. "No, I've only been here for a few days and haven't really been focusing on finding a boyfriend."
"Oh." Sora replied. "Well, I guess you can take Matt with you if you want."
"Which Matt?" her friend asked her with a puzzled look on her face.
"Ishida Yamato." Sora chuckled at her friend's absent mindedness (is that even such a word?). "Well, you do like him, ne?"
Mimi was a bit taken back by her question. "We're just roommates. I'm not even sure if I like him or not. Ohh, what am I saying? How am I supposed to know if he likes me or not? We've barely even had time to talk to each other. We're never around when we should be, and we're only in our dorm together when we're getting ready to sleep."
Sora raised her eyebrow at what she heard. "So you are sharing your dorm with him. Well, his dorm."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
She shook her head. "Sorry I ever mentioned that. I guess you can ask Matt at night, but he won't be back until nine. I don't even know if you two will have time to make it and catch up with Tai and me."
"Oh, I guess you really do want me to go on that double date with you and Tai." Mimi said looking down at her frappucino, she was swirling the whipped cream around with her straw. "I don't know if I want to ask Yamato-kun. It's not like we really like each other, but I don't know if you can consider him and me as 'friends'. I might just have to take Michael if he rejects."
"Michael?"
"Michael's a guy I've been running in to the past few days. He's even in my class and sits right in front of me which makes everything seem so awkward. And also, Yamato-kun's right in the next room and I keep thinking that he's onto us about something. I rejected his offer on him asking me out on a date and I don't feel it would be right to ask him." she replied. Sora nodded and understood what Mimi was talking about.
"Well, I guess if you can't come, Tai and I will meet you guys tomorrow at the Union again. We got there every two days, so you can always find the others with us at the large table." Sora replied. She looked at her watch. "Hmm, it's 5:54pm. I should be heading back to the hostel to get ready for my date with Tai. If you ever reconsider, call me on my cellphone."
Sora finished up her latte and left a sheet of paper in front of Mimi. She waved good-bye as her orange-haired friend left the coffee house. Sitting in the coffee house alone proved to be a bit annoying to Mimi as she quickly consumed the rest of her drink and left a small tip on the table. As she stepped outside, the streets had become matted in rain and a shower was wetting everything in sight. 'Oh, no. I'll get soaked before I get back to the hostel.'
She quickly crossed the street and walked briskly towards the academy gates. By then, the soft shower had turned into a down pour as she passed the entrance of the school. Her skirt had weighed her down and her knee-high socks were slowly drooping down to her ankles. She entered the hostel and took the elevator up to floor eleven, shivering as her body was soaked in water. She walked quietly through the halls and came upon room 112K. The lights were out as she entered the room and the rain was flowing freely as it bounced off of the windows onto the balcony. It was 6:32 on her clock. The sky outside had turned into a gloomy black and blue as drips of water from her clothes fell onto the floor.
She sighed as she quickly changed into her pajamas and wrung her rained-down school uniform in the sink. Her clothes were neatly tucked away into a hamper bag and she stored it away in the closet. She took in some air and got into her bed. All of the lights in the dorm were turned off except for the low beam of her bedside table's lamp. She sat reading some of the text in her school text books.
"9:14." Mimi sighed as she put her books away and put them away in her bedside table. It had been three hours since she'd returned to the hostel and she had finished all of her homework that Izzy had given her. She had her hand on the switch of her lamp when Matt entered the dorm after some friends waved good-bye to him. She yawned, "Konnichiwa, Yamato-kun."
"Hmm, you look tired. Did I wake you when I walked in?" he asked her as he lay his guitar case at the foot of his bed.
She shook her head. "No, I was just going to turn off the lights. Good night."
Her light went off and she quickly fell into a deep slumber. Trying not to disturb her, Matt changed in the bathroom and put his light on low as he studied out of his school books. He glanced over at his sleeping roommate and saw that she was sleeping quietly. 'She must have had a rough day. She looks so innocent as she sleeps.' His eyes softened and he gave her a smile. 'I'll never finish this work tonight. There will be tomorrow. Good night, Mimi-chan.'
