Where are you Christmas: A Christmas Sorato songfic
A/N: Winter break is fanfic overhaul time. As you can see I'm trying to catch up, especially since I seem never to have any other time to do it. Anyway, this is a bit sadder and not real humorous, but is a bit of Sorato just because I'm in the mood thanks to Love for the Wild (which is finally done.) So read, review, and enjoy! ^_^ The song is Where are you Christmas, by Faith Hill.
It was cold in Odaiba that night, cold enough to keep everyone inside anyway. Soft snow was falling slowly, covering everything in a cold white blanket. It was late, so no children were even out on this cold snowy night. Even the usual drunks and druggies were gone. It was pristine, undisturbed, at least until a lone young man softly trudged through. His eyes were an icy blue, and his skin pale enough to blend in with the snow. All in all, he looked at home among the cold flakes and sharp icicles. He just walked, never looking, just wandering with no sense of direction or destination. He was just walking.
Scenes kept playing through his mind, of Mimi taking his hand and whispering into his ear those dreadful words, of his other friends at the Christmas party where she had told him, of Tai trying to talk as the blonde had walked out the door. He hadn't wanted to talk to Tai. As much as his friend would try, Tai could never know how much Mimi had hurt him when she had broken up, especially doing in front of the others. The cold didn't bother him much since he was already numb. A song kept winding through his head, the song that was playing when the act had been done. It was a fitting song for the way he felt.
Where are you Christmas?
Why can't I find you?
Why have you gone away?
Where is the laughter, you used to bring here, why can't I hear music playing?
My world is changing, I'm rearranging, does that mean Christmas changes too?
Christmas had never meant much to him. His parents had broken up around Christmas, and had split him from TK the week before. No presents for that year, just pain. His first girlfriend had broken up with him on Christmas day, and now Mimi on Christmas Eve. It was just too much. He had to make sure that he would never feel the pain of another Christmas. He turned and headed towards Tokyo Bay.
Where are you Christmas?
Do you remember, the one you used to know?
I'm not the same one, see what the time's done.
Is that why you let me go?
Another digidestined was missing form the party that night. Sora Takenouchi sat in her mother's shop, putting together last minute arrangements. She wished she could be at the party, some of the Digidestined hadn't seen her since they had left the digital world. Unfortunately, the one she most wanted to see was the one who most wanted to be avoided. Yamato Ishida was known for his lone wolf attitude. Yet, seeing him was the only thing she wished for this Christmas.
She sighed and went back to her flower arranging. Thanks to the Christmas crush, she wouldn't get to the party, and wouldn't get her Christmas wish. Suddenly the store bell rang, alerting her to the presence of a young man in the store. He was covered in snow, but had piercing icy blue eyes. He came to the counter and looked at her. "Do you have any spare rope or twine?" he asked, seeming not to care about the snow that lined his thin jacket. "Sure. It's in the back." She replied, and brought out a coil of twine. The man thanked her, pulled some money from his coat, and started to leave.
"Wait!" Sora cried and the man looked at her again. "What do you need that for? Late Christmas presents? If that's it, there's a store down the street that sells ribbons." The man laughed a little, staring at her under his jacket. "Presents? Hardly. This is to keep me from turning back. This will be the last Christmas that I will suffer through."
Sora jumped, than reached for the twine. She could not let this man kill himself. When she took the twine, her hand brushed his, and it seemed almost familiar to her. Then she looked at his eyes again, and knew who he was. "Matt"?
Christmas is here, everywhere, Christmas is here, if you care.
If there is love in your heart and your mind, you will feel like Christmas all the time.
"I didn't think you'd be here, Sora. I mean, you should be at the party." He said, brushing the snow from his hair. "I had work. You should be there too. What happened? What's going on?" She asked.
"I. Mimi broke up with me."
"Why? What did you do?"
"I don't know. All I know is that it's just one more sad Christmas for me. I don't want to deal with another." Matt said, turning again to leave. "Matt, please, don't do this. I.I don't want you to die." Sora pleaded, getting a cold look from Yamato.
"Why do you care so much?" he asked, eyed Sora warily. "Because, Yama.I love you." There, the words just came out. Matt looked stunned, as Sora went over to try to warm his half frozen body. He succumbed, caressing her in return. Light came back into his face, and the ice in his eyes melted away. No words were spoken, yet none were needed, for the magic of Christmas had done its work. Matt took Sora's hand and pulled her even closer, then put his lips to hers. The icy coldness of his lips melded with the warm sweetness of hers, and they became one, still locked together in the dance only true lovers hear. His tongue touched her lips, and no amount of force could have held him back. His passion flowed into her, until she was just as eager as he. The cold winds blew the snow, but it did not bother Matt. Christmas had reentered his heart, and it was the sweetest one he had ever experienced.
I feel you Christmas, I finally found you, you never fade away.
The joy of Christmas, stays here inside us, in each and every heart..
With love.
