Not Exactly Sweet

One Week Later, at the airport in Japan there were several friends chit chatting about stuff when Mimi came out. They all screamed and shouted, some even cried. Everyone was shocked to see her short, just above the shoulder length hair. Mimi of course, hugged Matt first and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Everybody was "ohhing" even her parents, except Sora! She gave everyone a hug after that.

"Mimi! I missed you!" Kari sobbed.

"Yea, everyone did" Tai added. Just before he gave her a hug. He whispered in her ear, "glad to have you back." He kissed her cheek and she turned redder than a tomato.

"We're going to take you to the best restaurant ever!" Yolei screamed.

"YOLEI!" Everyone screamed at her.

"That was supposed to be a surprise!' Sora shouted. "Oh well secrets out. We were going to take you to Sushi Land. Of course after you rest and unpack."

"Oh, you guys can take Mimi" Her mom said. "She got plenty of rest on the plane. Sora why don't you take her there and she can just freshen up?"

"That sounds like a plan!" T.K. said.

"Sounds great to me, is it all right with you Meems?" Sora asked.

"Yea." She nodded her head in agreement.

They all took off to Sora's house. Mimi washed her face and brushed her hair. She decided to borrow Sora's pink dress. The hem was short like a mini skirt, and the top tied around her neck.

"Very Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality." Kari giggled.

"Let's go." Mimi said hastily.

It was around 6:20 p.m. when they arrived at the restaurant, but it was still very dark. Everyone was happy and laughing. Talking about old times and the future. Later they went to the beach to chill. They started a bonfire and ran around like little kids. Soon they were all sitting around the fire and relaxing. Kari's head was on T.K.'s shoulder and he had his hand around her waist. Yolei was holding Ken's hand and Davis was just glaring angrily and with envy at T.K. and Kari. [Where the others are? I have no idea its lets just say they all went on a vacation J ] Mimi was sitting on Matt's lap and Sora and Tai were just sitting close together. All the sudden Matt stood up.

"Mimi, let's go find an empty place so we can…"Matt said and was again interrupted.

"YEA WHOO HOO! Go MATT go MIMI!" Davis shouted as he got up and danced like a monkey.

Matt and Mimi got up left and everybody laughed AT Davis not WITH him. Kari called him a loser than told him to sit down. More laughter erupted. Everybody was having a great time laughing and playing games.

Meanwhile, Mimi and Matt found a spot to do stuff. Mimi didn't want to start anything so she just stood there with a blank expression on her face.

"Mimi, we need to talk it's VERY important." Matt started. "You see, that summer when I said I loved you, I meant it but I also liked and still like someone else so you see…"

"Matt? What are you trying to say? Are you breaking up with me?" She sobbed. Tears were forming in her eyes. She wasn't a clue less girl; she did watch a lot teen flicks in New York.

"No." He mumbled as if he was ashamed.

"So we're still all right? Boyfriend and girlfriend?" She said a little worried but happily.

"Mimi, I'm not breaking up with you because I don't have to. We were never a couple, and never will be. I love another girl. She's smart, pretty, and easy to talk to. Okay? I'm sorry that it had to be like this. I still like you, though. You're great, too."

Mimi gasped and put her head and felt hot tears rolling down her face. She felt a knife go through her heart. She looked up at Matt and his face was full of sympathy. "Who…I…s Th…Th…e girl?" Mimi managed to choke out.

"Sora." He sighed. "But, please let me explain. When she turned all girlie it got me thinking about her, differently. Than you left and I got to know her better. I still liked you, but you were so far."

"I'm not far anymore." She cried.

"I know," he started "but, Sora is important to me so are you but, the days you were gone I liked her more and more. I think I love her. I love you too. I was so troubled when you two were here and when you went back to New York everything sort of fell in place. I'm sorry."

She couldn't take anymore. Mimi ran away not caring about Matt calling her to come back. She went back to her friends and cried her eyes out. She took one look at Sora and cried even harder. Everyone asked if Matt hurt her in any way. Of course, everyone thought that Matt tried to rape her or something. But she assured everyone that it wasn't that, and it was just some emotional stuff.

"I want to go home." Mimi whispered.

"But Mimi! We were supposed to have a sleep over at Sora's house." Yolei said.

"Yea. PLEASE MEEMS. It's coed meaning all of us!" Kari pleaded.

Mimi agreed but said she was going to walk home first and get some stuff. Tai was worried since it was like 10 at night and she was wearing such a sexy outfit, and she was gorgeous. So he walked her home.

On their way, it was getting breezy, and Mimi was getting cold. She started to shiver and Tai put his jacket around her. She thanked him, and thought about how romantic that was. He was such a great guy she thought. Wait, he is a great guy.

"Hey Meems, I hope everything will be okay. Don't move back to New York because of him." Tai joked.

"Deal." Mimi laughed. Being with Tai was different. She felt happy. No one made her feel like that before except Matt. Thinking of Matt, Mimi cried again. Both of them stopped walking. Tai looked at her. His heart melted at the sight of her gloomy face. No one deserves such pain. Tai hugged her and she hugged back.

"Mimi, I know what Matt did. I loved Sora, and she shut me down for Matt. I cried too. You'll get over it. Maybe not today, or tomorrow, but you will." Tai said trying to comfort Mimi.

"Thanks Tai. Hearing that from you makes it seems like nothing ever happened." Mimi replied smiling from ear to ear.

"Tell you what. Tomorrow, just you and me going out not on a date but as friends just to vent and deal. A no Matt and Sora day." Tai said.

"Sounds great!" Mimi replied.

They arrived at her apartment. She went in and washed her face and put on sweats and a tank, and of course Tai's jacket. She put new stuff in her bag and left for Sora's house with Tai, happy and refreshed.
