Second chappy!!! I'm writing this right after swim practice so it's going to be REALLY bad because I'm REALLY tired and hungry. So I will be stopping periodically to eat. I don't feel like making any witty remarks so I'll just copy and paste stuff from the first chappy.
Discalimer: Digimon is not mine!!! I wish it was though. I could have fun with the bois!! Go Yamachi!! Go I Have No Idea How To Spell The Word For Joe And Izzy!! (sry their Japanese names escape me right now as does the word for their pairing. Is it Jyoushirou? Or something different? I don't know *-_-*)
Warnings: AU, Yamato angst, I don't know what else I'm going to put in. Oh Yamato doesn't have TK as a little brother. He has little nine-year-old sister named Kira (the name of my future daughter!). I'll add more as I write this.

Yamato woke the next morning with Kira in his arms. The sun hadn't even risen yet. At least no sunlight came through his windows. Slowly turning, trying not to wake up his sleeping sister, he checked his clock. 6:02. Yamato groaned softly. He forgot to turn on his alarm the night before so he hadn't woken up in time to take a shower. Now all he had time to do was get dressed and eat breakfast. It took him half an hour to drive to school. Slowly he got out of bed. Kira whimpered at the lose of warmth but didn't wake up. Grabbing cloths from open draws he went to the bathroom in order to change. He decided that he wouldn't take a full shower but just wash his hair while he undressed. So it was at exactly 6:33 when he left the bathroom. Seeing his sister still asleep in his bed he pulled the covers over her, kissed her head, and left the room.
The ride to school was uneventful. And his hair was still damp when he got out of the car. Instead of pulling his shoulder length hair back with a hair tie, he let it hang loose. The wet strands curled slightly into a sexy wave. Uncaringly he walked past his fellow students to his locker.
"Ohayo!!"
"What do you want?"
"Just saying good morning."
"Oh I didn't notice." Yamato slammed his locker closed.
"God your moody."
"Piss off."
"Come on Yamato. Your new here and all I want to do is help you."
"I don't need help. Especially from you."
"Really?"
"Yea."
"Fine then. But you won't get to first period on time if you go that way."
"What?"
"You're going the wrong way."
"Fuck you."
"Temper temper." Tai sighed.
"Omae o Korosu."
Tai laughed realizing that that was a joke. "Yea yea. Trust me, I can live through anything. I live with a two teenage girls and two other boys. And we only have two bathrooms. Trust me. I can live through anything."
"…" Yamato made no reply but just kept walking beside Tai. He really didn't know his way around the school and really did want some help. It was just that he couldn't trust Tai. At least not yet.
Tai sensed that Yamato didn't want to talk so he filled in the silence by telling Yamato short cuts to different wings. After a few minutes of walking through crowded hallways they reached their homeroom.
"I'll go in first. I mean you don't want it to seem like we walked together do you?"
"Go."
'This guy is so strange. I mean I know what it's like going to a new school and that can change a person but he's just too strange to have it be that. Wonder why he's so bitter.'
Yamato walked in a few minutes after Tai. He wanted to be away from his classmates for just a few minutes more. Slowly he walked in right before the bell.
"Class! Take your seats. As you all should know this year in Art we will be learning Art History. At the end of every…" Yamato took down notes when needed but he only listened with half an ear. He was thinking about what he was going to do at the end of the week. He'd promised Kari that he'd take her someplace that weekend but with the way he'd acted yesterday he didn't know if he was going to go home Friday night. He hated to break his promise to his sister but he hated being the target of his father and step mothers rage. He knew that he was going home today, he had promised Kira that he would tell her what happened yesterday and he didn't want to break two promises to her.
"Pist." The sound was made right before a piece of paper was dropped onto his desk. Lazily he opened it. Inside was a note. But it wasn't a very ordinary note. This could have only come from one person. Tai. Looking over at him, Yamato saw him wink. Rolling his eyes he turned back the note written in Japanese.
"Meet me after school at the orchard down the street. I'll be there around 2:30. Hope to see you then.
Taichi"
Yamato knew that Tai was watching him so he nodded his head.
Tai knowing that Yamato would show avoided him the rest of the day.
School got out at 2:10 usually but since Yamato had study hall the last period he left early. He drove home and dropped all his stuff off. Seeing that it was only 2 and knowing that he could be a few minutes late he changed cloths. He changed out of the matching shirt and shorts he put on his favorite pair of worn jeans and a green beater. Not exactly the high of fashion but he didn't care. He was comfortable. Leaving his room he left a note for Kira on the dry erase board on her door. It simple said that he would be home later and he wanted to talk to her when he got back.
The drive back was, like before, uneventful. Finding the orchard fairly easily he pulled into the parking lot. Seeing that Tai wasn't there yet he went inside to see what the store had for sale.
"Yamato! I saw your car outside but I didn't see you. So what are you looking at?"
"Candy."
"Candy? Why?"
"Yea candy. I thought I'd pick some up from my imouto."
"You have a little sister?"
"Yea. She just turned 9."
"I would've never guessed."
"Urasai"
"You really need to work on that attitude."
"You think I care? I have every right in the world to be like this."
"Really? What has the world done to you?"
Yamato's eyes glazed over for a second. But they quickly cleared and became dull. "Why should I tell you?"
"Sorry I was just asking." 'There is something defiantly bothering him. Why did he just look like he was going to cry?' "The Root Beer and Watermelon are my favorites."
"Huh?"
"The candies. The Root Beer and Watermelon flavored are my favorites."
"So?"
"I was just saying that they're good."
"Okay." But Yamato ended up getting three of every flavor and a box of apple cinnamon doughnuts. "Why'd you ask me to meet you here?" He asked as they walked out of the store.
"I just wanted to get to know you. Like I said yesterday, you look like you need a friend."
"Oh. Tai?"
"Yea?"
"Where's your car?"
"I walked here."
"Nani?"
"Yea well you see we car pool so I can't take the car from them."
"Who?"
"My fam."
"How people are in your family?"
"Well we are all adopted. There's Mimi and Sora. Jou and Koushiro. And my little sister Hikari. We're all basically the same age except for Hikari, she's 13."
"How old are you?"
"I'm 17. As are Mimi and Koushiro. Sora is 16 and Jou is 18."
"Sugoi!"
Yamato and Tai hung out for several hours. Yamato drove them around and they listened to music in the car's cd player. Tai got to listen to Gackt's new cd and Yamato was introduced to Papa Roach via their cd 'Infest'. It was 5:23 when Yamato pulled into his driveway and asked Tai if he wanted to come in.
The two boys walked into the house one in front of the other. Chatting about nothing. They hadn't even got to the stairs when Yamato was glomped.
"Hey Kira. How was your day?"
"Suteki!"
"Good. Kira, this is Tai. He's a friend from school."
"'Lo"
"Hey."
"We're going to my room, okay? I'll talk to you later."
"Yea." She said and ran off.
"Cute kid."
"Yea. She looks exactly like mom." Yamato's eyes again misted over as he watched his sister run away.
"Yamato?"
"Huh? Oh sorry."
"Yamato? Yamato? Is that you?"
"Come on, lets go to my room."
"Isn't your mom calling you?"
"She isn't my mother." Yamato's voice was colder than ice.
"Okay." 'Adding more to the enigma that is Yama!'
They climbed the stairs and went into Yamato's room. After a while a knock sounded at the door.
"Yea? What do you want?"
"Yamato can I come in?"
"No." Yamato's father came in anyway. "I said that you couldn't come in."
"I just wanted to meet your *friend*." Tai heard the way Yamato's father said friend and suddenly felt uneasy.
"Go away Father." Yamato's voice was flat but inside he was scared out of his mind. He knew what his father was going to do and knew that there was nothing he could do to stop it.
"No I want to meet *him*." Yamato's face paled. A fact that Tai noticed.
"Um.. Hello Sir…I'm Tai."
"So. You're him."
"Uhh yea."
"I didn't know that there would be another fag in the school."
"GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!" Yamato was angry and ashamed. He wanted to find out more about Tai before he told him. Even after they had spent the afternoon together he still didn't entirely trust him.
"What?"
"You heard me! You must be a fag since after all you are in my sons bedroom. And after all Yamato is gay."
"Get out of my room! I will not let your rant go any further!"
"Talking so high and mighty! Wow you'd never say anything like that to your mother."
"Just get out of my room. NOW!!!"
"It's okay Yamato."
"No Tai it isn't."
"What are you gonna do? Cry?"
Instead of crying as he was taunted he punched his father right across the jaw. "Stay the hell out of my room!!! Stay the hell away from me!!"
"You goddamn faggot!!"
A punch to the gut made Yamato's father fall to the ground. Yamato then pushed his form out of his room. He closed and locked the door.
"I'm sorry about that Tai. He gets angry when he's drunk. I'm sorry about what he said about you."
"It's no problem. But Yama?"
"What?" He knew what he was going to ask and he knew that he couldn't lie to Tai.
"Are you gay?"
"…Yea Tai. I am."
"Okay."
Yamato was shocked. "Okay?"
"Yea. I'm fine with that."
"What?"
"I'm fine with you being gay."
"Okay. Well I guess I should take you home."
Tai saw that Yamato didn't want to talk about it so he helped to change the subject. "Yea I should be getting back."
Yamato didn't want to risk his dad getting into his room so he pushed his dresser in front of the door as he did the day before.
"How are we getting out?"
"Can you climb trees?"
"Yea."
"Then we're going out the window."
Tai laughed. "Okay."
They were silent on the drive to Tai's house. But when they reached the house they said goodbye. Tai left the car and started to walk to the door. Half way there he turned around and walked back to the car.
Yamato rolled down his window. "What is it?"
"I forgot this." He leaned in and kissed Yamato on the check and ran inside. Leaving a very confused Yamato to drive home.
