--Shows How Much You Know Me--

Sorry for the huge cliffhanger here, I just didn't think anyone would actually read this fic. But I'm glad people did and enjoyed it, and just to let you know, Matt and Mimi really are in love with Tai and Sora, very much as I'd hate to say. But, that's the way I'm heading so, yeah ^_^

*coughs*TIME OF OUR LIVES*coughs*

Mimi's POV

I was walking. I wasn't exactly aware of where I was heading but I just let my legs take me wherever they want to go. And I didn't care for that matter, because my life as I know it is over now…or at least what's left of the lie I live. I just wanted to die knowing Tai will never be by my side again, and the worst thing is I know why now…I heaved a long sigh, my feet stopped, and I started staring aimlessly at the ground.

I was never born a punk, a low-life jerk, I was actually one of those Daddy's Princesses and wore pink whenever I could, even when I'm taking a shower my soap and other necessities are pink. And I was never a loner, I always had people at my side to talk to and they loved being with me too, like how my family loved me too. My dad even teased me of being a Valley Girl Barbie sometimes too which really bothered me, but now I seem to miss it. My mother; always happy, beautiful, caring, wonderful—I used to be like that…then Tai came along I didn't know who I was anymore.

You know how hard it is to want to be two things at the same time but you can't decide which since they both mean something to you? Well, I was a princess and Tai was a wolf. Scary, vicious, clever, and can turn on you like that—while I was the total opposite. I wanted to be like him so I can get to know him better but at the same time I still loved and cherished the person that was me, I was so confused. But somehow I got drawn nearer into him, I began ditching my Barbie-club friends and hung out with Tai, and we had a great time being with each other because he made me feel like he didn't care who we were and how different our backgrounds are…in one point when I was six, I actually came to love him.

As we got closer, Tai began coaxing me into dressing up into these black, tight, outfits that some of his friends wear. I didn't like it, I didn't like it at all. But I liked—no, loved Tai that I didn't want him to think bad of me, so I wore them, I got acquainted to the character and image they gave me and I began thinking that I really liked it. My parents, I still laugh when I remember their faces when they saw me, but surprisingly they seemed more frightened of making me get out of those clothes than disowning their daughter. I was pretty disappointed at how my father barely yelled at me and Tai, my parents could've been my last hope there…

I had another friend whom I knew way before I met Tai. I've known him so long it seems like we were born the same time and came from the same mother(don't ask) he knew me inside-out, as I knew him better than he himself does. He was always there whenever I needed him, a shoulder for me to cry on, someone to zap me back to reality and accepts me no matter how bad I am, like magic he was there whenever I needed someone to go to. He warned me not to become friends with Tai but I didn't listen, instead I got so upset with him but I guess now I know why, because I knew he was right.

I slightly hugged my bag closer to my chest and began to weep. I miss Tai so much I can't bear thinking of Sora in his arms than myself, bearing the horrid thought of his lips touching another's and his love focusing on her…I know he cheated on me, I had just figured that out, but I can't help but love him. And, I know it's common for people to feel this bad after losing someone but I never thought I'd ever feel like that for I was with Tai, I thought we'd be together, forever.

I hated my parents for saying that I was better off without Tai the moment I told them what happened. I hate how my dad almost laughed and cheered his head off, how my mom couldn't help but cry and smile at me, and how much I enjoyed that special family moment we had. But I still wore that image of what Tai had rubbed off on me, and I shall keep wearing it till he comes back to me, until I'm in his arms once more. And that's how Tai had changed me my whole life, he showed me how bad life can get and went through it all with me. He made me what I am now, I hate jocks, I hate being popular and anyone who is, I hate being all happy unless I'm with him, and I hated everyone else but him.

That's why he loves Sora now, I probably was no more than a mere toy for him—happy and cute, a high spirit that he loves to crush down and then, when the toy's all worn out and doesn't seem worth playing with anymore, he throws it away and moves to another. Maybe I should pity Sora? I would, but not now, for I still love Tai with all my heart.

Matt's POV

Digging my hands into my pockets I search frantically for my keys. My parents surprised me last night with a new car, he said because I was nearly graduating and I deserve something for all my great accomplishments. (His parents are together here, and they're mighty rich like Mimi's parents too o_o; again, don't ask it's my story) Don't get me wrong, every kid in High School wants a convertible they can show off to everyone and I'm ecstatic to have one but, right now it just doesn't seem worth it. I would give back this car, every award I've gotten just to have Sora in my arms again…To look into those cinnamon eyes, feel her rosy-lips against mine, to be one with her. Inserting my keys and turning on the engine, I stayed sitting in the car for a while, heaving a sigh and recalling yesterday's events…

I was trashed. With my senior year almost ending, I was so happy at how my life was going and she had to bring it all down, taking me for the ride too. I, I just don't understand what I could've done to make her break up with me, I love Sora with all my heart and am prepared to sacrifice my life for her…right?

"Matt?" I glanced up and saw my dad staring at me in front of the garage door. "What are you doing, you're going to be late for school."

I faked a smile on and nodded, "Yeah, I was just, thinking of something."

I dismissed the conversation and solemnly drove out of the driveway. Letting out a muffled laugh, I thought of how Sora would've gushed at my new car, she would love to be the first to ever ride here and I guess we're both sorry she can't make it. Hn, I expect she's stuck riding the bus with Tai—the fucking asshole, he stole Sora away from me, that's as good as taking my whole life, my everything away from me, just like he took Mimi away from me too…Mimi was my best friend, my other half, and he took her away from me too. But that's a whole other story that I don't want to even think back to, I love

Sora and I probably will feel this bad for a while but, the sulking I did was more than enough and I know more sulking won't help at all. Everyone in school might've already heard about Sora breaking up with me, they're all probably more shocked that's she's going out with Tai instead of me.

I kept on driving, my eyes staring right into oblivion when I suddenly caught sight of a girl walking aimlessly by the road, she seemed pretty familiar when it hit me—it was Mimi! What was she doing wandering around this part of the neighborhood, didn't she know school was the other way around? Without thinking, I quickly pushed my hand on the wheel to get her attention.

Mimi's POV

I just passed the bus stop now but I don't care anymore, I don't even wanna go to school for once. I just wanted to crumble down beneath the earth I was spat out from and forget anyone of these people ever exited. I need to talk to Matt—no, wait, stop that Mimi!

I stopped in my tracks and smacked my forehead, "That was ancient history, Mimi, forget he ever exited as he do to you. Mr. Popularity was a long time friend but that's all he is now—ancient history."

I need to believe myself here no matter how much my heart's denying it. Why am I bringing Matt up when I just lost the one I love? I'm vulnerable, yeah that's it…And I'm taking advantage of it—no matter how much we deny it Matt was my best friend, the one who appeared at my side by magic like some guardian angel watching over me. I slowly took out the picture from my jeans, surprise, surprise, I was wearing jeans instead of leather for the first time in ages, I don't know what brought this sudden outcome of my normal clothing but I guess when Tai's gone I don't know what I'm doing anymore.

The picture, right. The one of me covered in cake-icing, the one from my unforgotten birthday that Matt put together. And he even got my parents to come to, and Tai…that was probably the last day I ever smiled so sincerely for I became friends with Tai that very next day and forgot all about Matt. I don't like Matt, I don't think I'll ever will; he's popular and I hate that, he's a jock and I hate them, he's mysterious, and charming, and smart, and…

I sighed, too good for person that's now me. But I want to see him, I want that guardian angel to be by my side right now for me to cry upon.

*Beep, beep!*

My head picked up and I slowly turned around to see who it was. My eyes slightly widened seeing that it was no other than Matt! What did he want? I wonder how he was taking this…if he misses Sora. I stood there and watched as his black car saunter its way towards me, I actually tried everything to keep a stern face but something about how Matt looked just made me laugh. I swallowed my pride and depression and put on my usual smirking, annoyed face.

"Nice," I started and smirked, "I didn't know wagons came in black."   (YES! Stupid joke alert)

Matt's POV

Typical of her to say that. I couldn't help but toss a smirk back, funny, even though we're both crushed at what happened we're still wringing each other's throats and doing everything to piss each other off. I guess I'm glad to run into her.

Omniscient POV

"If you hurry you could still get a built-in porter-potty with yours," Matt grinned, "I'm sure they'll give you a discount considering you 'urgent emergencies'"

"Funny, Ishida, I'm laughing my head off," Mimi replied and stepped closer. "What do you want? You know I'm not in the mood for this crap."

Matt looked away towards the street, "I know. Hop in, we gotta talk."

Mimi almost fell back at that, "We? Talk? Matt, those are the two most foreign words that we can ever put into a sentence together. Besides—"

"Would you just get in?" Matt snapped and slightly banged his hand on the wheel. "Please, I just wanna talk to you."

Mimi's POV

I didn't know what to do. Part of me was jumping for joy and yelling at myself to get in but another, was still so mad at him for being the way he was. Arrgh, why'd he have to put on that puppy-dog face? Man, I'm gonna regret this, aren't I?

"Fine," I said with a sigh as I hopped in beside him, "but I'm only accepting the offer because I've already missed the bus," I pulled my seat belt across myself as he started towards the direction of school. Gosh, I didn't know I was that lost. I looked over to Matt.

He seemed different, he wasn't wearing that whole jock-like, Mr. Popularity image I always see him in, he was all what's the word…blank? His face had nothing written on it, his eyes were rather colorless and he just didn't seem like the person I see on the bus every morning. I decided I better not say anything until he starts talking, he was the one who proposed talking anyway…Hu, I didn't even really think of how Matt feels at Sora leaving him, all I ever thought of since yesterday was Tai and being mad at Sora, I hadn't even thought of how crushed Matt was. He loved her so much. Maybe he's the one who needs a guardian angel now…

Matt's POV

 I kept watching her at the corner of my eye, she was just staring at me with—I think pity, or it might just be me. Weird. And, she's wearing normal clothes today, not those leathery, tight black shit she's always wearing—she looks sort of, nice. Like the old Mimi. Was it because of Tai being gone that she finally had the courage to dress the way she wants? Hn, what do I know. I just kept my eyes on the road as she sat there, quiet, silent, weird. I suddenly noticed she was staring at my basketball playbook, nice way to start a conversation, Matt!

"We have a game this week against a tough school," I started and that got her attention. "Yeah, coach is pressuring us to practice a lot to win. Maybe if you want, it'd be cool if you can come, if you like that stuff, I mean…"

Mimi slightly nodded, "Yeah, I used to play basketball a lot when I was little."

Stupid! How could I forget, "I remember, you're always the one kicking my ass around the court with those vicious glares of yours," she laughed—I think she did, I hope so. Way to go me?

"You've gotten better though," she said, "I can see how much you love playing."

I smiled, "It's practically my life goal to become a basketball star. I know it's a bogus dream and I told So," Oh no, I said the 'S' word. "Sora."

Surprisingly enough, she smiled and looked to her side, "Don't be ashamed to talk about her, she's a big part of your life."

"Was a big part of my life," I said. "Apparently she's part of Tai's pathetic world now—oh, no I didn't mean it—" I smacked myself, now I just made her feel worse.

Mimi shook her head, "Yes, you did mean it that way, but I guess if I was—well I am in the same position as you, so I might say the same thing myself. Though I think I should feel bad for Sora, but just not now since I'm still pretty depressed…"

Funny, why would she wanna pity Sora? I gulped knowing we were nearing the school premises and people will see me and Mimi together, Sora might see me and Mimi together…what'll this do to my reputation? No, I shouldn't think about that, all that matters now is, well I don't know anymore…

"Do you regret going out with Tai?" I dumbly asked, but hey, I wanted to know.

Mimi's POV

Do I regret being with Tai Kamiya? Do I regret living several years of a lie and hiding myself?

"I can't really answer that right now," I replied smoothly, "I did love Tai for almost the moment I met him. I-I'm not sure if I regret every moment we shared but, he showed me how bad life can get and walked me through it…and he taught me how stupid jocks and all that High School Pep really is." I don't care if I slipped that out, I meant it.

I could feel Matt's glare on me, "Well," he said, "we jocks don't exactly appreciate you gothic, punk, whatever it is you call yourselves—"

"People?" I cut in.

He grunted, I turned my head and saw the fire crackle in his eyes, I guess I made him upset.

We finally made it to the front of the school. Students began arching their brows at us, how I love surprises! I almost laughed my head off seeing their shocked expressions but then I suddenly caught sight of Tai and Sora also staring at us. This was suppose to make me feel good for they looked pretty jealous, but it didn't. I grabbed my bag.

I glanced at Matt, "Well, thanks for the ride and pep talk here but I have a class to get to."

"Don't you mean ditch? Don't let that 'normal' image fool people, Mimi, you're still a punk to all of them" he remarked and I shot him his glare back. How could he say that?!

"Shut it, Ishida," I grunted and stepped out. His car and him were still there in front of the school, watching me as did everyone else as I marched up the stairs and into the school building. I was so depressed this morning but now that's all pure anger now, anger for Yamato Ishida.
