Umm. I hope I haven't been confusing anyone bout the point of view! It's
all in Mimi's perspective. Umm. there are spots where it's matt with the
others and no mimi so it's like it's in 3rd person. Also I realise I messed
up in chap 1 and I apologize! So this is the chap. hope you enjoy!
"Ahem" Someone coughed, and we just realized the crowd that we had watching us. I then remember the fact that I was the anti-social bitch that had shown no sign of caring for anyone. Matt looked at me, and I jumped down before nodding to him. "You sure?" he asked me. I just nodded again, realizing what this was going to do. "Umm. everyone. this is my girlfriend. She's who I've been going to see for the last while." They all just continued to gape until Kari asked, "Does your girlfriend have a name?" Matt went to speak, but I cut him off. "My name you already know." They all just looked puzzled, so I continued. "I want to apologize in advance, cause I know you'll all freak. I know I've been the biggest bitch imaginable, but I have my reasons. My name is Mimi Tachikawa."
Let's just say there was plenty of shock and not too much happiness. That much was evident. I just knew that the bitching was soon to come. Boy was I right.
Sora walked up to me and slapped me. "Bitch!" she snarled.
"Sora!" Matt exclaimed angrily.
"No, Matt. I deserved that." I said solemnly, staring straight into her eyes.
"Damn right you did! How could you ignore us and treat us like shit like that! We're your friends! You've become just a big bitch!" Sora ranted. Tai reached out and touched her arm, but she shrugged him off and continued. "Don't Tai. God, to think I called you a friend. You're nothing but a whore."
I just shook my head sadly, before turning to Matt and whispering in his ear "Meet me later." I then walked away slowly, the tears falling quietly.
As soon as I was out of sight, Matt turned to the group.
"MATT! HOW DARE YOU NOT TELL US SHE WAS BACK!" Sora screamed menacingly.
"How dare I. how dare I? Dude, she was AFRAID of telling you guys. She didn't want you to know at all. But I told her that you know, or I leave. She proved me right there I guess. She kept telling me you wouldn't understand. I put my love for her on the line, and damn it, you guys fucking scream at her for it. Won't even hear her out. I can't believe you guys, especially you Sora. You're supposed to posses love, but you showed nothing but hate. The rest of you just stood by while Sora ranted on. Tai tried once, but he didn't try hard enough. God, I'm disgusted. with the lot of you." With that, Matt ran toward his bike, and raced after me.
The group of them stood dumbfounded. The scene that happened moments ago slowly processed into their brains.
"We really screwed up." TK stated, breaking the silence.
"That we did." Joe agreed with him.
"I think she deserved it!" Sora huffed angrily.
"She must have had her reasons though." Izzy argued.
"Matt was really pissed too." Tai added.
"Guys, did any of you hear what else he said though?" Kari asked calmly.
Everyone looked at Kari, wondering what she was going on about. Matt said a lot of things.
"He said he put his love for her on the line! He said he loves her!" Kari beamed.
Shock registered on everyone's faces at that bit of information.
"He's never admitted to loving anyone! It's all been flings. He's serious about her, and we were great enough friends to almost fuck it up for him. He's never done anything but be the greatest most supportive friend to us, and we return the favour but jumping down his girlfriends throat, just because she happened to be a friend of ours 7 years ago! Mimi still remained great friend to us, even when she was in New York. She had her reasons, and I plan to apologize." Kari declared, receiving nods from everyone, even Sora who just grumbled "They better be good reasons!"
*Meanwhile*
"Mimi!" Matt called, stepping onto my floor. He heard muffled sobs from my room, and he ran in finding me curled up in a ball on my head.
He sat down beside me and hugged me, brushing my hair, while I cried. I was hurt and he understood that. "Don't worry Meems, they'll come around."
"But. But." I sobbed, but he just hushed me.
"Meems, you'll have to explain it to them, to me, to everyone. They need to know, and so do I."
I nodded, knowing that he was right. It was time I explained myself. "Get them over here for 2 o'clock tomorrow. I'll explain it then."
*Next day*
"Woah! Look at this place!" Tai exclaimed, standing on my driveway. Everyone looked up in awe at the large house before them. Ok, ok, I'll admit that the place is big. or rather huge, mansion-like. Most would stop to gape at it, though I don't see why. Then again. it is my house. Tai walked up to the door and knocked, while everyone crowded behind him. A woman in her late thirties to early forties answered. She looked really elegant and you could just tell that she radiated "I'm rich!" "Can I help you?" She asked politely, eyeing the group before her. "Are you selling something?" Tai laughed nervously, before Kari elbowed him in the ribs. "Umm. we're not selling anything." The lady just looked at him strangely, before he continued. "We're here to see Mimi Tachikawa. She invited us over and gave us this address." The lady grinned broadly. "You're Mimi's friends! Well do come in! My daughter must have forgot to tell us that she was having company! Oh well, just head up those stairs darlings. She's the very top floor. It's the pink door, you can't miss it!" They all shook their heads in disbelief as they mounted the stairs. Finally they reached the pink door. Tai knocked cautiously, and Matt opened the door. "Hey guys, come on in." Everyone filed in and Matt showed them to the couches and stuff where they sat down. As they walked, they looked around and noticed all the pictures of younger versions of themselves looking back at them. "Why'd she keep all these pictures?" Joe whispered, voicing the thoughts of everyone. "Because SHE didn't want to give up her past, though I guess SHE didn't realize it then I guess." Everyone looked up to see Mimi wearing what she wore the day Matt came to her place for the first time. (A/N I didn't feel like coming up with a new outfit. My brain's tired. It's like 4 in the morning and I'm trying to think. Not fun! LoL) All the guys gaped at me, considering my attire. I paid no attention to that though. I had other more pressing thoughts on my mind. I stood in front of everyone, and all was quiet for a few minutes before Sora got impatient. "Well, we're all here. So why don't you explain yourself!" She snapped irritably. I nodded my head and smiled weakly. "You're all anxious to know. Of course, I guess I was just trying to prolong it. Umm. I suppose I should start from the beginning, which would be when I left for the States. You all didn't make it that easy for me. First Sora got mad. then everyone was crying. and then Matt. after I ran off." I stopped and blushed at the memory, and Matt was listening intently, but also avoiding everyone's gaze. "What happened after you ran off, that involved my big bro?" TK asked, eyeing his brother with a grin. "He. he hugged me. gave me a light kiss. told me not to forget him. or you guys. I didn't see any of you after that. I left the next day. I got to New York and became popular. Everyone wanted to be my friend. Yet I still felt empty. I mean I had great friends like Nikki and Ashley, but they were not real. And then there was Michael. I thought I was in love. I gave him my. well doesn't matter what I gave him. I found out I was coming back here, and I told them that. the next day I found Ashley and Michael necking in the hall. They already forgot me. I vowed then that I wouldn't let myself be hurt like that again. I had been friends with them for 7 years, I saw I'm moving and bam! I'm forgotten. I kept thinking about you guys. how it would be when I came back. I knew that things would be different. I tried to let you go, and I did so I wouldn't miss home. But somehow when I started to remember you guys. I just saw you as Ashley's and Michael's. Everyone was like that to me. I was hurt I guess. and I figured at the same time. what if I left again? Could I deal with that pain of being cast aside like I was nothing again? Jesus I was messed. I guess I was afraid. to tell you the truth, I feared Matt most. With Michael it was platonic, though I convinced myself otherwise. I told you, even there I felt empty. I knew something was missing. When I saw you all I longed to be with you guys laughing. but I promised myself I wouldn't let myself get hurt. Matt figured out I was the big bad bitch, and I made him swear not to tell anyone. And he made me promise to let him at lest see me, so I did. I guess I hurt myself and all of you more from distancing myself, then from letting myself be with you all. I'm sorry. but fear is a powerful thing. I let it control me." As I finished my story, everyone was silent. I looked at the ground. I was a little shaky. I figured I'd let everyone talk amongst themselves to reach a verdict, so I walked away. Suddenly I had a pair of arms encircle me and spun me around. There was Matt with everyone gathered behind him. He smiled and gave me a light kiss on my forehead. "It's ok Meemz." Some how I knew it was. He just continues staring into my eyes. "You're forgiven. You did as I asked you 7 years ago. You never forgot me. you never forgot us."
The End!!!
I think. well this is the last chapter of this one! Umm. now the question is to write a sequel or not. I'll let the readers decide! LoL! I had tonz of fun writing this. Wow. I actually completed a story. what a glorious day! Sorry. I have a tendency to get bored with what I'm writing. but I've decided that I will finish what I write no matter what. I think I may even finish my other stories that I haven't yet. hehe. so umm.. Tell me what you think of the story and sequel. yes? No? Umm. yah.
Bye Bye!
