No Matt, No Sora
No worries, no Taito in this one. BTW, I was into my American Pie 2 phase when I did that so, yea well things stick on you, I thought what the hell? Pure Michi from now on! Deal? And be a little open minded because I'm on a writers block and this might end turning up worst than the Spice Girls Movie…
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
At around noon, everyone had left Sora's house. Matt and Sora tried to get Mimi and Tai to go to the movies. Of course, they didn't want to. Mimi didn't even want to look at them. One night was hard enough, but a whole day? No way. Tai had his reasons *cough*Matt*cough*.
"Are you sure you don't want to come with?" Sora asked Tai.
"Yea, it'll to weird for Mimi and me and Matt, well let's just say that I can't look at him." Tai replied.
Tai and Mimi decided to go to the park to walk and talk.
"So Mimi, any plans for the future?" Tao asked her.
"Yea, before I'm 25 I want to get married, learn to cook, get a tattoo. I want to stare at the stars all night with the mans of my dreams." She replied.
"Are you serious?" Tai asked shocked. "I thought you wanted to be a singer. You have a great voice. What about college? Your career? What about after 25?"
She coughed and looked the other way. Tai took the hint and shut up. They just ended up watching little ducks in the pond, and kids playing with eachother running around like there's no tomorrow. 'This is not going as I had planned' Tai thought.
"Come on Mimi! The day is young!" Tai yelled as he grabbed her hand and ran to the other side of the park, where you can rent boats. "Up for it?"
"You bet!" She smiled shyly at him.
They got one of those boats where you have pedal it like a bike to move it. After a while Mimi got tired and stopped altogether.
"People do this for fun?" She panted rubbing her legs.
"Yes they certainly do." Tai said. Then he realized they weren't moving quite as fast as before. He took one look at Mimi. "HEY! MIMI!" he whined
"Yes," she said sweetly.
"This is a team sport we must I repeat we must work together. So you better start pedaling! Do I make myself clear, missy?" He acted like a sergeant.
"Listen mister, this isn't a sport! This is something that stupid people do for fun!" Mimi argued back.
"THAT'S IT! Drop and give me 10!" Tai shouted.
"You'll drop and give ME SPLASH!" She screamed back before pushing him into the lake. But, Tai didn't get mad he laughed and she joined him. He swam back to the boat, but didn't get in. He was on Mimi's side of the boat.
"Mimi, this is the greatest time I've ever had, so far." Tai said.
"Me too." She agreed. They leaned their heads in and their lips almost touched than Tai grabbed her shirt [they aren't wearing life jackets I guess] and pulled her in causing the whole boat to go lopsided.
Before she went down she heard Tai yell "SWEET REVENGE!" She grabbed onto Tai and held on tight to him.
"Mimi, its just 10 ft deep." Tai laughed.
"Don't remind me." She pleaded. "Tai, I have a confession to make."
"Your real name isn't Mimi? Your real hair color isn't brown? You have a twin sister that you've kept secret because you're afraid she'll steal your popularity? Or is it…"
"TAI!" Mimi screeched. "Icantswim" she mumbled.
"Huh?" Tai asked.
"I CAN'T SWIM!" she yelled.
"I was going to say that next." Tai joked. "Maybe you should add 'learn to swim' on your things to do before I'm 25 list."
They, well actually Tai carrying Mimi, swam to shore.
"What about the boat?" Mimi asked Tai.
"They'll get a new one." He said. "Where to next?"
"Oh my gosh! Look! Paint ballpark! I used to love playing that." She giggled.
"Let's go then." He said taking her hand.
"What? Are you sure?" She said in disbelief.
"You bet." He smiled at her.
Before you know it they were covered in paint and throwing it at eachother. They were laughing and having the time of their life.
"Time out, time out!" Tai yelled, putting his hands in the time-out form.
"What's to matter? Baby Tai tired?" She mocked a little baby.
"No," he said and popped a balloon on her head. Paint was running down her face and some got on her lips. "Just wanted to do that."
"You are so going to get it!" Mimi screamed at him. She started chasing him and he ran his little legs off. About an hour later, Tai mentioned "laser tag."
"What? Like this? Tai, we are covered in paint shouldn't we shower and change first?" She exclaimed.
"Why? Are you going to go the rest of your life looking like everyone else? Who cares what they think Meems! As long as we have eachother." She said smoothly.
"Let's go." She chirped.
So there they were shooting eachother with play guns. They were creaming the poor little kids that they were playing with. Tai sneaked up behind Mimi and cornered her.
"The only escape is a kiss." He chuckled.
She grabbed him and kissed him lightly on the lips. He kissed her back, this time a longer, more passionate kiss. Then a lighter buzzing noise went of on Tai's vest and it started vibrating.
"You shot me! Mimi!" Tai complained.
"Oops, finger slipped." Mimi laughed and shot him again then ran.
"Mimi! You're so dead!" Tai laughed than ran after her.
Later that night, they were walking with linked arms, paint and all. Mimi started coughing uncontrollably. Tai wanted to call the ambulance, but she insisted she was fine.
"Oh! Dancing, let's go Tai, please." Mimi pleaded.
"No way, never! This is where I draw the line Mimi." Tai gulped as he backed away from the dancing place.
"Tai, it's like baby stuff compared to what we did." Mimi stated.
"Okay, here's a confession for you…I can't dance." He mumbled and looked down on the ground.
"I must have paint in the ears. The great Tai can't dance?" Mimi asked.
"Yea."
"Maybe you should add 'learn to dance' on your things to do before I'm 25 list." Mimi giggled.
"I will for you." Tai kissed her forehead.
Tai walked Mimi home that night. It was around 12:20 am.
"Thank you for this day Tai." Mimi gushed. She looked at the ground blushing.
He lifted her chin up kissed her gently on the lips.
"Anytime." He said. He kissed her again, and she kissed back.
"I love you Meems." He confessed.
"I love you, too." She answered.
They kissed one last time.
For weeks they have spending time together all the time. At school, after school, weekends. They go bowling, ice-skating, roller-skating, fishing, eating, watch movies, everything teenagers like to do on dates. One night he took her to a fancy restaurant. It was very different form their other dates. If they laughed people would stare. They were the youngest ones there. So it was a bit awkward. Then music started playing.
"Mimi, may I have the pleasure of dancing with you?" Tai asked.
"Are you sure Tai? In front of people?" She asked him with concern.
"Positive." He smiled at her and she took his hand. They were the only ones on the dance floor so obviously people were looking at them. He would step on her foot occasionally, but she let it slide.
"Tai, thank you for these past weeks." She told him.
"I love you, of course I'll do it." He said.
Soon some elders joined them and Tai and Mimi started the real party. They played some funky songs and got everyone dancing. They even did the limbo. It was a night to remember.
Later that night Tai and Mimi her walking holding hands and just talking. Again, Mimi started to cough. She was looking kind of pale and her eyes were bloodshot.
"Mimi are you okay? Do you need to sit? I think you may have caught something." Tai asked with concern.
"Tai I am sick." Mimi said with tears in her eyes. She let go of his hands.
"No problem, I'll drive you home if you're not feeling well." Tai informed her.
"Tai! No! I'm sick! Really sick." Mimi cried.
"What?" He was confused.
"I'm…dying" She was now crying really hard.
And that's a rap! Next chapter will be filled with a lot of mushier stuff. Hopefully this makes up for the Taito. As you can see I got inspiration from films like 10 Things I hate about you and A walk to remember. But, of course it has my sweet twist. What did you think? R+R please review so I know someone is reading and will be motivated to write. Thanks and feel free to email me with ideas for this story or other ones. ~*SweetSorrow~*
