In Need

>Intro: PG-13 / Digimon / Romance - Fantasy / Chapter two

>note: Sorry for taking so long but writing is a lot more difficult than I thought. So, yeah, I'm doing my best, I'm trying to make determinated rules like 'write or you'll not eat'. So, yeah, I'm crazy and I have my mind in other stuff right now. I just came back from a travel with my school mates and I can't keep myself focused on my job (I mean the writing one. All I wanna do is watch Cowboy Bebop and sleep until 4:00 pm). So, excuse me if this chapter is sucky and badly written but it's like I'm flying 24/7 (no, I'm not smoked).

And about the couples... I don't know, Yamato won with the reviews. But I think this would be... A little more interesting if we make a love triangle don't ya think? If you don't know what I mean, then go and read: big surprise is right ahead.

>Disclaimer : I don't own this chlidlish anime. I just like the characters and the cherrys.

Her cinamon eyes watched curiously the brown ones of her mother, asking for an answer that seemed reluctant to show up. Keeping her eyelids open and the stare fixed in one place caused her a smart that semeed to increase by every second. Nevertheless her willpower and the pity her mother was provoking her in that moment were such that she made her best to keep that eye contact she felt so nesessary.

The bottom lip of the woman was becoming unhealty white, since she was biting it with her two front teeth. That moment of remorse was driving her insane. The hand that hold her daughter's one started to make some preassure. She wanted to say it all, yet nothing came out of her mouth. No words were capable to describe how she felt towards her red-haired, with the huge ploy she had been carring her through this last three years. (an: do you like this kind of writing?? It's so... heavy... But since in the reviews you told me 'weak wording'... I don't know, tell me if you like it this way)

"I'm going to call Kitty, she may also want to listen this" she said and, relaxing a bit from that uncomfortable moment, she lifted from her knees and started yelling the cat-like name, that was soonly answered by the violet haired girl.

Sora closed her eyes and sighed in a way she never thought possible to be meant towards her mother. She had always been a serious woman, direct and shameless. As soon as something seemed out of place to her, she'd try to fix it or at least talk about it. But in this last days, she'd divert her gaze ashamed if her daughter was close, say that nothing was wrong when asked. Like if this actions where fundamental.

On the other hand but not that far away, it was not like her daughter had nothing to hide herself or that she didn't feel uncomfortable. This happened, especially if they started talking about the why of that sudden pain, if she had any idea of why the whole school floor started fighting so to carry her to the nurse.

"Oh my GOD! Congratulations! You're so damn lucky!" Kitty's yells could be heard all around the house. Sora wanted to get up in that instant and find out what had happened, what the hell did her mother want to tell her but she wouldn't dare. The curiosity was starting to cause her a headache and her attemps to get up, even if the cramps and physical pains had stopped considerably, kept her in bed even more painfully than before.

Immediately some hurried steps climbed up the stairs to her room, where the exited voice of Kitty's finally announced her; "your mother is getting married!! And guess who's the lucky man! Yoruko Kamishi!!"

"ACCHIIUU" the figure of a crouched down man, of medium build sneezed while packing the lamp of the living-room; "someone must be talking about me."

"Bless you" two voices said at the same time, younger than the first one, while they where taking the dishes out of the sideboard.

"Don't copy me, you moron" one of them said in an angry tone, ready to build a fight of a meaningless thing.

"I didn't copy you, go get a life" said the second, while he closed his fists and got ready to give back any attack that answer could cause.

The first one charged for the second and in no-time they where already curled on the floor, hitting each other like there was no tomorrow. Luckyfully, Yoruko Kamishi was present to stop the two beasts rolling around, letting come out their lips a considerably amount of dirty language.

"Stop it you two! Are you ever gonna change? Do you even thought that we're going to live with another people? If you keep having this non-sense fights, I'll have to take some drastic methods" his firm voice echoed in the teen's ears. In a second they were already on their feet, but they kept giving alternative elbows on the ribs.

"Sorry pop, but Yama the perfect can't hear you because of the side-effects of an abusive use of hair-gel" Taichi Kamishi, a boy with brown spiky hair and eyes like chocolate and star of his school soccer team said mockingly, giving his brother a shove.

"See pop? This asshole won't stop bugging me even if his brain is not in the correct place" Yamato Kamishi, a natural blonde, zafire eyed, lead singer of the really popular band 'The teenage wolves' who had brought fame and lots of money to the Kamishi last name replied, giving back his brother's insignificant aggression.

Yoruko sighed. What was he supposed to do with two hyperactive teenagers? Luckyfully, on Friday he wouldn't be alone anymore. Finally his dreams of living with the woman he loved would come true. "Are you two done packing? We must carry all this stuff tomorrow to her house so please hurry."

Both guys nodded their heads and started packing again, without stopping, of course, the evil glares and obscene gestures.

"So how did you meet him? Was it romantic?" Kitty asked exitedly the elder woman, who's name by the way was Katsura. She was blushed by all the questions Kitty had and disappointed that her daughter, Sora, couldn't say a thing.

The red-haired girl closed her eyes. This was all so sudden to her. Yesterday her mother was a single, kind woman and today she has a boyfriend who's planning to move in her territory by Friday. Was that common?

She felt both ways, happy and disappointed. Her mother had promised her that she'd love her father, even after death, no matter what. She'd promised that her love was only for her, and Kitty who's parents had died recently and who had not other relative. Was that a lie? How was she supposed to feel in that exact moment towards her mother? Hate? Love? Pity?

No, she was not the one who should be hated. She should be receiving congratulations and hugs about her new discovery. Sora was being selfish, wanting all the love her mother could give only for her, not caring how she felt.

For one second, she imagined what the world had been for Katsura this years. She'd had to mantein the house, the debts, her daughter, all by herself. Fighting against sexual disapointments and loneliness as she awaked in the morning and there was nobody there, by her side, but her watch. Nobody to comfort her those days when the sadness attacked. Nobody to hug her and tell her how beautiful she looked.

Then, what was Sora useful for? Had she only caused pain, being herself and unbreakable bond between her deceased father and her mother? Had her mother suffered when she looked at her and then remembered her husband? Was her life as useless as she felt it was?

She felt scared. Did her mother love her? Or she only felt the need to take care of her because of her old fiancee? Was that it?

No, it couldn't be. How many times had she told her how much she loved her? How many hugs and kisses had she shared with her? She did love her. She did. She did.

"I love you! Don't leave me!" Sora suddenly screamed, getting up and hugging her mother as tightly as she could. Her body didn't hurt her anymore and neither did her eyes as she cried both, happy and sad tears.

"Wha-- Sora? Are you ok?" Her mother, pasmated at her daughter's sudden actions, could do nothing, but return the hug and smile.

"Are you feeling ok? Anything hurts?" She asked as she pulled her embrace away and looked at the beautiful amber eyes.

The young nodded and took the tears away with her fingertips.

"Amazing, you released yourself from the pain. But now can you please be quiet so she can tell us how she met him?" Kitty said in that coldly tone of her.

Sora nodded and sat down on the bed. She was happy, with no reason but the only thought of knowing that her mother cared and loved her enough as to give the hug back. She then released that she was in need of love, it was all she wanted.

"I met him in this parents reunion at Sora's school. All the people knew each other and we were the only ones who seemed completely lost in our business. I was sitting on those uncomfortable wood chairs when I heard someone sighing behind me. It was him and he looked depressed.

"So, I lifted from the chair and walked towards his place. He told me that her woman had escaped with his Jaguar and all the money on his account, leaving him with his two kids." She giggled a bit at his disfortune; "so I said I could help him, that I knew this great lawyer, and before we knew it, he had invited me to a drink and well, live goes on".

She finished her sentence with a sigh and her eyes sparkled cornily.

"Wow now, that's romantic." Kitty said sarcastically.

It was Thursday afternoon. Yamato and Taichi Kamishi got out of the school's doors as other million guys did. They had to walk fast, before their fans could see them.

Today they had to help Yoruko to move all the boxes to the Takenouchi's house.

"Has that woman any kids?" Taichi asked innocently as he combed his afro-like hair.

"Pop told me she had this girl Sora but he had never seen her. He told me that she comes to our school. I don't know, I have never seen her either" he replied while turning around looking if any crazy girl was following them.

"Sora Takenouchi... Wait I know! Isn't that girl that won the best student award last year?" Yamato snapped his fingers.

Hey yeah you're right! But I don't remember her though so I don't think she was that hot" he said, almost dissapointed that his memory about her didn't got along with the stereotype of 'perfect girl' he always kept in mind.

"It doesn't mater. As long as I can catch her in the shower some time. C'mon let's run or pop'll be angry with us". Yamato smiled at the perverted mind of his brother. He'd always be chasing girls around, specially if they were cute and had many curves.

Not like him. He was reserved and even if he'd always enjoy a night of passion, his girlfriends didn't last more than a month.

+++++++++

"Where do you want us to put this Ms Takenouchi?" Yamato and Taichi asked as they carried a long and heavy box.

"Oh, put it up-stairs, I'll take care of it later" she said kindly.

Both boys sweatdropped. They had to carry that damn heavy box up the stairs! Damn it.

"Don't push me you asshole! You're making me fall!" Taichi said.

"I'm not pushing, you always fall by yourself!" He replied angrily "it doesn't matter, I'm not starting a fight with you now. C'mon we made it".

When they arrived to the top of the stairs their backs were killing them. They sat down and rested against the wall for some seconds.

"Hey Tai... Do you smell that?" The blonde haired asked.

"Yeah. It's strange, it smells like honey" he said as he lifted his nose to the air so to smell it better "very... Stimulating."

"How about we check out?" Yama said as he got up and started following one of his five senses.

"Why not?"

'How long has it been since I took a bath?' Sora questioned herself as she stepped out the shower and enveloped herself into a towel. She had skipped school since she still felt weak in one way, or another.

The mist covering the room was dense because she loved hot water. She could barely see her feet. She carefully found the door handle and slowly opened it.

But her stomach jumped in surprise as she didn't find the classical blue wallpaper

"AAHHH!"

+++++++++++

Hehehe... Cliffy! Can ya guess?

The next chapter will contain less thoughts and more action, but I had to make this one a little... Reflective, so you people would understand a little what the characters are going through.

>nUMb

Ps: Would somebody mind reading my other fic, 'The Old House'? It's R rated and darkie, and so what! It's not like you have never read a NC-17 even if you're not seventeen. This is only R! And I have a nice future for that fic, like psycho Digidestined, each with a different problem. Well, I don't know. Thanks for the two people that reviewed, very kind of you. Anyway I'm going to continue it. If you like an original plot, read it.

(Oh and... THANK YOU all for all the reviews the last chapter got. I'm really thankful about them ^_^)
