Chapter Four
The next morning…
"Hello?"
"Mimi?"
"Hi Tai."
"About the plan, when can we get together?"
Mimi thought for a moment. "How about you meet me at the park near the swings in five minutes?"
"Okay, bye Mimi."
"Bye Tai."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sunlight poured into Sora's room. Sora stretched and slowly opened her eyes. She looked down to see she was in her bed. Huh? How did I get here? The last thing I remember is falling asleep in Matt's arms, she thought as a smile widened on her lips. But how did I get here? Definitely not mom…Matt? Aw, that was so nice of him.
Ring! Ring!
Sora sat up and reached for her phone beside her bed. That's when she saw the time, because she had a pastel purple phone with a built in clock. 11:00? Wow, I really overslept.
Ring! Ring!
Sora picked up the phone. "Hello?"
"Hi Sora. Did I wake you up?" Matt asked slyly. He smiled as he thought she was probably blushing.
"Just a little."
"Listen, I have band practice at one, and I was wondering if you'd like to come? Please say yes, it'll help keep those girls away."
"Well okay."
"Great, I'll be there at quarter to one to pick you up."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the park…
Mimi tapped her foot impatiently. She checked her pink watch and frowned. She'd been waiting for him for ten minutes now. Ah! Where is he?
"Mimi! Sorry I'm la-ah!" Tai exclaimed.
Mimi turned around to see Tai running towards her one minute and then falling the next minute. She couldn't help but giggle as he picked himself off the floor. "Well it's about time."
Tai shrugged as he walked up to her. "I said I was sorry. Come on, let's go sit on that bench over there." He led her to the bench and they sat down.
"Okay, I know Sora's our friend and everything but if we want them to split then we'll use her and Matt's current situation to our benefit. Aren't we going to the park tomorrow for a Digidestined reunion?"
"Yup."
"Then we'll execute phase one. Got it?"
"Got it," Tai smiled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sora took a shower and put on a pale blue dress with little white flowers. After she dried her long hair, she put a pale blue head band on and sprayed a perfume in the air, before walking through the mist. Mmm…one of my favorite scents…mango… Sora began to hum lightly as she applied a watermelon flavored lip gloss. It gave here lips a soft look with a slight rosy tint to them. Her humming turned into her singing as she put on little white flower earrings and a matching bracelet. Suddenly, she heard a knock on her room door. She opened it and was surprised at what she saw. "Matt? How did you get in?"
"Well hi to you too. The door was unlocked. Why'd you stop singing?"
A faint blush tinted her cheeks. "You heard that?" She looked away from him shyly.
"I didn't know you had such a sweet voice," Matt complimented. He saw her blush more and couldn't help but smile.
"Th-thanks."
"You look great too."
"Really?" Sora asked in surprise. Where is this all coming from? Why does he keep complimenting me?
Matt couldn't help but notice how good she looked. He may be a friend but he was a guy, and it was no secret that Sora was a looker. "Of course you do. Now come on before you make me late."
At band practice…
A group of girls began to gather at the open garage door. Their starry eyes traveled over the band members but stopped when they got to Matt. They kept chanting his name as they watched his lips move in time to the music. The band frowned. How were they ever to get any practice with all that noise? Finally they stopped and decided on a five minute break. And upon seeing then stop, they all rushed up to Matt screaming his name.
"Oh Matt!" squealed a girl in pig tails.
"Dance with me," demanded a girl short black hair.
"No, he's going to dance with me," shot another girl.
"No, he's going to sing for me," protested a girl with short purple hair.
"Hey, he's mine," declared a girl with auburn hair.
"He's not your!" yelled a girl with green hair. She grabbed Matt's arm.
"I want your autograph," squealed another girl.
"Kiss me," demanded yet another girl.
Sora looked on in amusement at the helpless Matt. When she heard "Kiss me" she rolled her eyes and looked at Matt, who caught her gaze. She mouthed something to him and he nodded slightly.
"I'm sorry ladies, but the only girl I'm ever going to kiss is my girlfriend, Sora," Matt said as he pulled his arm free from the girl with green hair.
"Excuse me, do you mind?" Sora asked angrily as she tried to get by.
Suddenly the girls began to circle Sora. "Are you Sora?" asked the black haired girl.
"Well, what if I am?" asked Sora bravely.
"Your Matti-chan's girlfriend?" asked the pig tailed girl.
"Why would he go out with someone like you?" snorted another girl. She stepped closer to Sora and cracked her knuckles, causing Sora to take a step back. The other girls tightened the circle.
Uh oh, Sora thought. This isn't good…
"Yeah! He deserves better," said yet another girl.
Matt's blood began to boil. No one talks to my friends that way, especially Sora. "Hey! Back off you over obsessed wild cats. And back away from her," Matt hissed. The girls immediately stepped back from an upset Sora.
"But Mattie-chan-" One of the girls was cut off by Matt's sharp reply.
"Don't Mattie-chan me. And how dare you talk about Sora," Matt said as he walked up to Sora. He put his arms on her shoulders but she didn't look at him. Instead, her eyes were glued to her shoes. His hand gently lifted her chin up and he continued, "Sora is the sweetest and most innocent girl I've ever met. And unlike all the other girls, she thinks of others. Sora is an angel, an angel sent from Heaven."
The fans gasped and Sora's eyes widened as she looked into his eyes. Does he really mean that?
Matt lightly caressed her cheek. "So don't anyone ever talk badly of her again."
"Hey girls, I'm single," said the drummer. The girls turned to him as their tears slowly disappeared. They immediately flocked towards him, but some of them looked over their shoulder shooting daggers at Sora.
"Do you mean that?" Sora whispered.
"Every word," he replied.
"Thanks."
Matt leaned forward, entranced by her ruby eyes. And as if by magic, their lips met softly. Why did I just do that? Am I falling for her? No, I couldn't be. I'm just doing this to show the girls I'm taken. Yeah, that's it. With that justification, he began to deepen the kiss.
Sora reached her arms around his neck as his strong arms held her waist. Why is he kissing me? Is he? Am I? Are we falling for each other? I'm so confused. Does he really mean this kiss? No, it's probably another show. But still…why am I enjoying this so much? His arms…so strong…and when they're around me I feel so safe…
~*~To Be Continued. Are they falling for each other? What will Tai and Mimi do? What is their plan? Unexpected things will happen in the next part, changing the lives of Matt and Sora.~*~
