Yep, you have to be patient. There is no Yamaken/Taisuke here..
chapter 5
Sora hoped to see Yamato in the break between his rehearsal and the actual performance. Deeply inside, she cherished a hope that Yamato still belonged to her and she still dreamed to celebrate their first anniversary.
He was half an hour late. He gave her a quick peck on the cheek and ran away, saying that his hands were full with the new song and the band was tearing him apart, so sorry.
Damn!
Sora sighed. Her watch indicated it was forty minutes to the beginning of the gig. A crowd was gathering in the rows before the scene.
A familiar mop of brown hair caught her eye. Taichi. Who was so hopelessly in love with Yamato that he couldn't remain standing patiently. Daisuke, his page, by his side, was looking similarly excited. Sora pressed her lips together. She was by no means a cruel girl. If Yamato loved him back, Sora would step away. If...
"Hey, over here, Taichi!" she called.
Taichi ran up to her. His first question was, "Where's Yamato?"
*I can't stop thinking they're in love..*
Sora's heart chilled at the irony of it. A year ago, last Christmas, on this very spot, Taichi gave her up to Yamato. Was she, likewise, to give her boyfriend to Taichi?
Sora smiled kindly. "He's still practising, I'm afraid."
*Taichi has the Crest of Courage, I don't. I don't have the heart to do it. I don't have a heart... Only Love... Oh, Yamato...*
Taichi impatiently turned to the mahogany-haired boy, "So, what'd we do, Daisuke? Nobody's here yet."
Daisuke jumped in ecstasy. "Let's go see Yamato! I'm dying to see the backstage. It's like TV!!" And Daisuke WINKED.
Sora's heart shattered. *He knows... Who else? First dumb Daisuke... Then the whole Tokyo?!*
"Taichi, can I talk to you?" she heard herself saying. *What, already?* her heart sank hopelessly.
The brown-haired leader took her to a quiet corner.
"It may be... strange," Sora looked down and it tipped Taichi's mind that something was surely wrong. "You know.."
"Yeah?" Taichi asked carefully.
"It's been a year since... Well, when I chose Yamato... Taichi, I don't know what to do! When I chose Yamato... I never expected you to fall in love with him... Taichi..." Sora blushed. "I guess I was kind of a trouble. But it's okay. If you love each other...?"
The girl raised her eyes and Taichi nodded.
"If you want to be together... Just go to him, Taichi!" She pushed him in the direction of the backstage area. "Make him happy."
Taichi stopped shocked. "Sora... thanks," he said awkwardly. The girl excused herself for a minute. When she reappeared, her eyes were trimmed with red but she was beaming and for the first time in weeks there was no shadow on her face. The rest of the Chosen Children came up.
Miyako announced, "Look, who's here!" and dragged poor Ken from behind. "You don't have to blush, Ken! Everything's under control!" she shouted.
Ken blushed right away.
"You must have heard the song, ne?" asked Iori with a gleam in his eyes. "So?"
Ken looked around and found that he was trapped in the circle of his friends.
"I haven't even touched the tape," he confessed.
"No way!!!" That was Miyako.
"Now, Miyako, if you would kindly let go of my sleeve..?" Ken got away from the over-eager girl and straightened his jacket. Miyako laughed and joined Sora and Hikari (brought here by Takeru). Koshiro and Jyou arrived the last and now were discussing something in low voices.
Takeru stood by Iori's side.
"Are you going somewhere after the gig?" the blonde boy asked.
"Grandpa's taking me to the temple, then to the family dinner," Iori answered honestly.
"I was wondering, if Hikari and me could come with you to the temple?"
Iori nodded. "That would be fine. But why wouldn't Taichi and Yamato take you somewhere?"
Takeru made a surprised face. "I suppose they have some other things to do.."
Miyako's shrill laugh made everyone look at her. Daisuke accepted the bag she gave him and winked at Ken, who nervously pushed his fists into his pockets and made a grimace to no one in particular.
*What are they planning for me?*
"I'm going to see Yamato," said Taichi. Then he wickedly turned to the indigo-haired boy who was trying to sneak away. "You wanna come along, Ken?"
Ken shook his head and blushed. Taichi was having fun. Everyone laughed. Ken knew it was only a beginning and he didn't like it in the least.
"Come, Daisuke," Taichi strode away.
