Chapter Three: Waiting for Tonight
~*~ Taichi's Point of View ~*~
"Why hasn't he called yet!?!" Taichi exclaimed to himself as he paced back and forth across the room. It was past ten thirty and he was sick with dread that Yamato never wanted to speak to him again. 'Ooooooooh, Kami, what if he was just playing around when he said he liked boys?' thought Taichi as he glanced at the phone, 'We were kinda drunk…what if he hates me now? I wouldn't be able to stand it. Oh no. No. No. No.' Taichi sat down on the couch in the living room, but he continued to fidget, running his hands through his bushy brown hair. 'Please ring,' he thought at the phone, 'please, just ring……..I have to straighten things out with Yamato. I just *have* too.'
~*~ Yamato's Point of View ~*~
Yamato rubbed the back of his head as he groggily sat up. 'Why is the back of my head sticky?' he wondered as he brought his hand around to the front of his body, 'and why is it red? Am I bleeding?' Then he remembered it all. The events of the night before, everything. 'Oh Kami,' he thought as he gingerly got up, 'what am I going to tell Ta………..bingo!' Matt smiled as he reached for a notebook and pencil. He knew just how to explain everything to Taichi. Through his music. Yamato scribbled furiously onto the pad of paper, occasionally crossing out and rewriting parts. To make it simpler, he put the words to a melody the band already new well and would have no trouble playing. He was totally absorbed in his composition.

Ten Minutes Later……
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Done!" Yamato exclaimed as he threw down his pencil. Taichi's song had been finished and tweaked to Yamato's wishes. Reaching for the phone, Yamato decided to try Atsuya about it first, before calling Taichi.
Rrrrrrrrrrriiiiinnnggggg
Rrrrrrrrrrriiiiinnnggggg
Rrrrrrrrrrrri- "Hello?"
"Good Morning Atsuya."
"Yamato, do you realize that it's before eleven the day after a killer party?"
"Sorry, Atsuya, but I'd figured you were used to the hangovers by now." Yamato said with an unseen smirk.
Atsuya sighed. "What do you want anyway?"
"I want to perform a special song tonight."
"What for, Blondie?"
"My future boyfriend, I hope."
"You're finally admitting that ya like someone then?" Atsuya teased.
"Yes Atsuya, I, the great untouchable Yamato Ishida, like someone."
"How are we gonna be ready in time for tonight's concert?"
"Don't worry. It's a solo piece and the musical score is the same as 'Stranger'. I was hoping we could replace it with my song."
"Sure, why not," Atsuya readily agreed, "as long as Ryo and Tomo don't mind."
"Great! I'll call them right away."
"Okay then. Bye Yamato."
"Bye." With a click, he was off and already dialing Tomo's number. Luckily Ryo was staying with Tomo, so Yamato didn't have to make another call. Tomo liked the idea, and Ryo thought it was sweet. Now to dial Taichi………
~*~ Taichi's Point of View ~*~
Rrrrriiii- "Moshi moshi."
"Hi Taichi." Finally, his voice, velvet-smooth and doing more to serve his frazzled nerves than he thought possible.
"Matt, I-" Taichi was cut of mid-apology by Yamato as he rushed to speak.
"Wait, Tai, don't say anything yet. Just promise me you'll be at tonight's concert at seven. It's really important."
"Okay, Matt, I promise."
"Okay. See you then. Bye."
"Bye?" Taichi was left slightly bewildered as He heard Yamato ring off. He glanced at the clock and sighed. It was going to be a *long* day.

Author's Notes:
I've decided to attempt to make this into a Yamachi (although I don't really see the point since it's not a lemon or even a lime), because I've noticed that Taito fans read anything with Tai and Yama in it, but Yamachi fans only read fics with Yama as seme.
I've tentative plans for this being a long term series, but, considering the sporadic way I write, it will not be completed for ages.
And, If you're wondering about the song, I actually wrote it based on this fic, so I *won't* be using "Butterfly" or any of the Image songs.
Also, I've hit a fairly bad case of writer's block, so I attempted to work on something else. Surprisingly, this seems to be working, so next week you'll get a new chapter and a new story for the price of one!
Please Review!
