Never Meant to Be

By Anime Queen

Chapter 3

Yamato's POV:

"Maybe Taichi's right," I was thinking, sitting there, waiting for Sora. The bell signaling the end of lunch just rang, and everyone was leaving.

"Where's Sora?" I looked around, trying to spot her in the crowd. That was always so easy - she stood out like an angel.

I was getting a little impatient. I often walked with Sora to out next class together.

"Matt? Aren't you coming?" Tai was looking at me while finishing his apple with one hand, and packing his stuff with the other.

"I'll wait for Sora," I replied, looking back to the direction where she was supposed to appear.

Tai sat down next to me, and put his hand over my shoulders.

"You'll be late for class again, Matt," he said softly.

I just shrugged. He shook his head.

"Man, you've really got it bad. So nothing ever matters to you anymore?"

I didn't say anything, because it was true.

"Just tell her, pal," he gave my shoulders a squeeze, "And you should get going."

"Yeah, ok, and Tai, you're a real friend. Thanks."

I ran out of the cafeteria and pushed my way through the crowds.

"Sora's probably already there," I scolded myself as I ran. "I have to tell her, though, Tai's right."

"But what if." I didn't have time to finish my thought, as I approached the door to the classroom.

I stopped and ran my hand through my hair before opening the door. I scanned the room for her, but she wasn't anywhere to be seen.

"Stupid. I should've waited for her."

I took my seat. At least the teacher didn't arrive yet. Sora was never late.

Sora's POV:

"What am I doing?" I screamed in my head. "I cannot believe this is even happening to me!"

I looked over at Mimi, but her expression was blank. I've always envied my friend - she had everything. Looks, brains, love, you name it! When we were kids, she used to say that there's someone meant for everyone, and for her, it has proven true. Tai and she were soul mates.

I don't believe in all that love crap anymore. I know I must sound silly, but it's true. If I even had a soul mate, he wasn't on this planet. Bottom line is, I'm never gonna find him.

I wondered what Mimi was thinking about. She stared straight ahead, as if trying to concentrate enough to think. She sat completely motionless, up until the end of the trip. We've landed on a helicopter pad on the roof of a tall building. The men got out, and we followed. So far, I only knew we must have been mistaken for someone else.

The men barely spoke the whole trip, so it wasn't until we were inside the elevator that one of them addressed us.

"So you're the new guys, huh?"

I just nodded, and so did Mimi. To make it look as if she knew exactly what was going on, she crossed her arms and stared at the number pad with a bored look.

"What a faker," I thought, glancing at her sideways.

The elevator stopped on a lower floor and we all got out. We walked down a deserted hallway. The only lighting it had came from tube lights on the ceiling.

We reached a black door, and one of the men knocked. It opened from inside, and our escorts waved us through.

In contrast to the hallway, this room was completely dark. The open door behind us made a path of light down the middle of the room, and we walked on the illuminated carpet, our shadows long and dark in front of us. The chair was turned away from us, concealing the person seated in it.

The door behind us slammed shut, and I jumped slightly. Now we could see that the room wasn't entirely dark. A desk lamp shone on the table in front of us, and there were several smaller lamps suspended on chains from the ceiling.

The chair suddenly swung around, and I found myself looking into the blackest pair of eyes I've ever seen. They were deep pools of ink, set in a slightly tanned face, surrounded by a frame of long pitch black hair, which stopped just above the shoulders. The thin lips moved.

"Welcome."

The voice was deep and firm, not really sounding like it belonged to the young man in front of us. I didn't say anything, waiting for him to go on.

"I apologize for the wait, but we had to make sure we were under favorable circumstances," he leaned forward and made a gesture with his left hand. A man dressed out entirely in black appeared from behind the chair. He walked up to us, and produced two black boxes out of his jacket pocket. He held one out to me, and I accepted. It was much lighter than it looked.

"Open them," came the firm voice from behind the desk.

I obediently flipped open the top cover to reveal a white tag. Turning it over, it identified the bearer as Iris Faye.

"Is this some kind of joke?" I asked myself, but tried to keep a straight face.

"Mr. Pupei, please escort our newest members to their rooms," the man said after we bowed thankfully.

"Yes sir," another black-clothed man stepped out to open the door for us. Without further adieu we fell behind the guard as we got back into the elevator. This time we were going up.

"Here are your keys, Miss Faye, Miss Marshalls," he bowed low, handing out two chains with black tags.

It wasn't long until we were shown into our respective rooms and left.

My room was huge. The couch alone took up most of the space, curving around the perimeter. A gigantic screen hung high on the wall, above shelves and shelves of what I found out were DVD movies and books. The carpet was soft, and I took off my shoes just in case.

As I opened the door to my bedroom, a king-sized bed greeted me. I walked in and threw myself onto it.

"How do I ever get out of this mess?" I thought, closing my eyes. "I wonder if anyone's noticed we're gone yet."
