Mistakes Can Never be Erased

Chapter 2: Untold Confessions

Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon, *yawns*, everyone knows that.

Reeling back in shock. on the brink of fainting. feeling the worst she ever felt in her whole life.

Yup, these were very good descriptions of how she had felt then. Mimi sighed. She hadn't expected Koushiro to like her. They were total opposites. She had been counting on him to reject her nicely and then soon, the both of them would forget about the whole thing.

'Why do things happen in the way you least expect them to?' she mused. She flung herself on her bed in frustration. She had no idea what she was going to do. She didn't want to hurt Koushiro but she did not like him that way.

As she drifted off into a fitful sleep, a pair of lighted-up, elated eyes haunted her.

Mimi smiled uncomfortably as she answered Koushiro's questions without giving it much thought. The amazed looks people were giving her in the corridors were bringing her to almost boiling point.

She knew why they were looking at her and Koushiro like that. They didn't think it was possible for them - a geek and a popular girl - to be dating. The word that they were had spread through the whole school like wildfire.

She had already gone through some embarrassing experiences earlier in the day she didn't want to think about. She couldn't believe people could be so mean. Fortunately, Koushiro wasn't with her then.

She had to tell him the truth soon, she really couldn't take this any longer.

If she was going to be humiliated again, she'd fly back to New York faster than you can say "ImperialDramon".

Thankfully, she walked out of the school and was just about to tell him the truth when he said "I'll walk you back home, okay?"

Surprised, she forgot all about what she wanted to say, and replied "You don't need to, Koushiro, your apartment's quite far from mine, you know."

Smiling sweetly at her, he said "But that's what I should - and want - to do anyway. It's part of my job as your boyfriend." He said the last sentence half-jokingly.

For the second time in the last two days, Mimi didn't know what to say. She thought it was too painful and too awkward to mention anything to him now. She silently let Koushiro hold her hand as they walked towards her home.

Not one of her boyfriends had ever walked her home before. In fact, most of them were pretty much jerks - which was probably why none of her relationships with them had never worked out.

And that look in Koushiro's eyes whenever he looked at her. She wondered why she never noticed it before. It was so full of love - all for her.

All day in school, she had felt so guilty and bad for resenting Koushiro and the humiliation he had given her and now she felt most guilty. He was so nice to her and he was really sweet even if he is kind of like a nerd.

As they walked out of the elevator, Koushiro hesitatedly said "Um. Mimi, are you free tomorrow?"

She nodded her head as they came to a stop in front of her door.

"Well, um. would you, uh, mind g-going out with me tomorrow t-then?" his face flushed as he stuttered it out.

Mimi held back a laugh and instead settled for giggling silently although she still felt bad. She thought 'He's pretty cute when he stammers and blushes like that.' Then she gave a start. Did she just think that?

"Sure, Koushiro."

He gave her a relieved smile and said "I'll pick you up here tomorrow at twelve then. Bye."

Unexpectedly, before he could turn away, Mimi brushed her lips against his before closing the door behind her.

He unconsciously touched his lips gingerly and turned dazedly to go home, unable to believe that Mimi had just kissed him.

As for Mimi, she was sitting on a chair, also unable to believe that she had just kissed Koushiro.

'What's gotten into me? I can't do this. Why did I agree to go out with him and then even kiss him? I have to tell him tomorrow. It'll probably ruin our friendship but I don't want myself to do those stupid things anymore.'

Koushiro, on his way home, had met Taichi and Taichi, being Taichi, started teasing him.

"So, our computer genius finally got a girlfriend. I thought that would never happen." He said laughingly, a mischievous twinkle in his eye.

However, when Koushiro didn't answer him, he worriedly shook his friend.

"Hey! Koushiro, are you okay?"

After a while, the younger boy replied "I sometimes just find it a little hard to believe. I mean, I'm a geek and she's so popular. How can she like me?"

"Oh. Well, hey, you are not so bad. I mean," Taichi racked his brains to console his friend, "Clay Aiken's a geek and a lot of people like him. Maybe you can't sing like him but uh -"

"Um, I get your point, Taichi." Koushiro said, a sweat drop appearing on the back of his head. "But, I asked her out tomorrow and I don't really know what to do."

"Then you're lucky to have run into me, Koushiro! Come on, I'll teach you some tricks."

Koushiro looked at his friend doubtfully. "You know, Taichi, I doubt you know much more than I do."

"Okay, I admit," he looked around and then whispered, "I learnt them from Yamato but don't tell Sora that."

Koushiro laughed and they walked on, trying to prepare him for tomorrow.
