"Mimi-san." A voice said gently.
"Eh?" Mimi looked up from her book to see Matt staring at her. "Hey Matt, what's up?" She said cheerfully.
The blonde blushed and shook his head. "Ano, not much. How about you oujo-sama?" He smiled softly.
Why is he looking at me like that? M-maybe Yamato-kun likes me…
"Heh, well not much either. Since both of us are bored, wanna go for a movie?" She asked. "Terminator 3 is out, so let's go watch that, yeah?"
"S-sure, if you like." Matt scratched his head and had a small grin on his face. "But what about Tai? Wont he…"
"He won't get mad, Matt so don't worry your heart out. He has soccer practice today, and can't spend time with me." The girl sitting on the bench gave him a playful wink.
Matt chuckled a bit and held out his hand for Mimi. "Shall we?" He asked politely.
"Sure."
"Wow! That movie was awesome, ne? And man, am I so full from all the movie snacks!" Mimi said excitedly after they came out of the theatre.
"Yeah, lot's of action. And of course you're so full, Mi-san! You ate all of the puchi-tama's I bought for you and me. And I also thought you'd wanna go watch Legally Blonde 2 or something." Matt said
with a smirk.
"I like those puchi-tamas's! And oh puh-lease! All you guys suspect me to be so ditzy." She rolled her eyes in disgust. "Only…only Taichi understands me." She sighed but looked up at Matt and smiled,
waiting for him to say something back.
Cerulean eyes looked at her meaningfully. "Gomen, it was a joke Mimi." He said gently.
"N-no problem, Yamato." Mimi managed to half smile back. "Oops, you don't like being called that, do you?" She added shamefully.
Matt chuckled and actually grinned. "Nah, it's alright. You can call me Yamato if you like."
"Really? Aw, arigato Yamato-kun!" Mimi squealed and squeezed his arm tightly.
"Eh, it's nothing Meems." Matt turned red at her closeness.
Mimi giggled at his red face and said, "Why are you blushing? Hm, hm? Do you like me? Eh?" She nudged Matt lightly, smiling and joking.
Matt was surprised, was it that obvious that he liked her? He wondered. "Ano, Mimi-san, y-yes I do like you. Actually, dai-daisuki."
Mimi gasped. "Y-yama-kun…I never knew."
Matt sighed and responded; "Well now you do. But I can't interfere your relationship with Tai, so I'm trying to just stay good friends with you now, so I won't end up getting hurt."
"I-I'm touched. Yama-kun, you know that I'll always be there for you and that you're a great friend. Please don't feel so bad." Mimi said, a tear trickled down her cheek. She gave him a hug and ran off, leaving a poor Matt shocked.
"I can't believe it!" Shrieked Mimi.
"Mmmph…" She pushed her face into a pillow, muffing her words.
She quickly slid off the couch and tiredly walked into the kitchen to make dinner.
"Yareyare, I can't believe Yama likes me. But why am I so obsessed with this topic? Do I have feelings for him? I'm so confused…" She mumbled as she took some ingredients from the fridge.
"Mimi dear, I'm home!" A high pitched voice called out and broke her thoughts.
"Mom? How was your day at the café?" She asked as her Mom trudged in, her high heels clicking on the marble floor.
"Fine, honey, just fine." Ms. Tachikawa said wearily, kicking her pumps out of the way. "Just did a lot of grocery shopping today." She added, holding up four bags of goods.
"Mmm, I see. We're gonna have kayu and yakituri for dinner, alright?" Was Ms. Tachikawa's daughter's reply.
"Wonderful, dear. Thanks for doing the cooking tonight!" Ms. Tachikawa smiled and made her way to the living room.
"Mou…I wish I went shopping today. Haven't gone to the mall for a week!" Sighed the brunette, blowing a strand of hair away from her face.
Baka…stop thinking only of yourself! You're not really a oujo-sama! She thought a bit angrily.
"Kuso…I'm going crazy, talking to my own head." Blah .
