Rei went to the back of the cave where he had spread the hay around a bit, 'doesn't look that comfy but its got to be better than sleeping on just rock' he thought as he lay down. It took awhile for Rei to get to sleep but eventually he did. Kai had been watching him for awhile, when Rei had finally got to sleep he turned back to the fire, it was only a lot of glowing hot embers that were left. 'I guess I should probably get some sleep' thought Kai, he got up and walked over to where Rei was asleep and lay down on the hay beside him, this was quite unusual for Kai, he usually likes to stay away from others.
It was quite cold lying on the floor in the cave making it hard for Kai to get to sleep. 'I wish I had built that stupid fire closer to the back of this stupid cave then it wouldn't be so cold' thought Kai as he lay curled up next to Rei. Part way through they night Rei woke up, and saw Kai asleep next to him, 'well looks like he is not being so distant anymore' thought Rei and slowly drifted off to sleep again.
Kai woke up some time that morning, Rei was still asleep, Kai decided to let him sleep while he went back to the pond. At the pond Kai striped down to his boxers and dived into the clear blue water, it was cool but refreshing, he just floated around on his back thinking 'where are we? How did we get here? Where is here? Why are we here?'
After awhile he got out and lay in the sun to dry off though it wasn't that much of a success because out of nowhere Rei dive-bombed into the pond soaking Kai with the splash, a sly look came across Kai's face and as soon as Rei surfaced Kai dive-bombed him, returning the favour. Kai Surfaced and laughed only to get a mouthful of water at the same time, he dived at Rei and they played for a while until they each backed off laughing to tired to continue, they both made their way up onto the bank of grass and lay down.
'I cant believe it, Kai was actually laughing and having fun, ok I wonder what's wrong with him, that's not what Kai usually does' thought Rei laughing at his own thought.
"Kai you should laugh more, its a lot more fun than being all serious about everything "
"Oh" was all Kai could say, he didn't know what to think or how to respond to that comment, Rei saw the confused and uncertain look on his face
"hey we don't have to talk about it" said Rei, "but you have got to admit the you actually had some fun out there right?"
"Yeh I guess I did" said Kai and gave Rei one of his extremely rare smiles then lay down on the grass to try to dry off again. When they were dry, they put their clothes back on and decided to stay lying in the sun until they got the rest of their energy back.
While all this had been happening Mimi, Sora and the gang had arrived in the digi' world, though they had come across a problem they had entered the world for the wrong spot for some reason, they were now facing a hike to their destination which no one was really happy about.
Tai had taken on the role of leader and this was annoying Matt who was still confused about last night, the fact that Tai and Sora were walking ahead of him hand in hand and TK and Kari were doing the same behind him didn't help his jealousy. Using Izzy's laptop, that he bought everywhere with him, they managed to find the quickest route in which they had to follow. Awhile later, they were still hiking, everyone was getting tired and hungry and starting to complain, especially Mimi.
"You guys could we please stop for a break I'm tired and hungry, I don't think I can go on much longer at this pace," said Mimi for the I don't know what number of times but it had been a lot.
"I guess we probably could" said Tai "but I think it would be better if we continued at least to the forest so we can get out of this sun."
"But..."
"Mimi do you ever stop complaining? Or acting like a ditz?" Matt yelled at her. Mimi just stood there staring at him with her sad eyes filling with tears which ran down her cheeks. She tried to say something but she couldn't, she was to hurt, to sad. She tried to stop the tears but she just couldn't, the pain was just to much for her to bear, to much for her delicate heart to handle, her fragile body trembled and more tears ran down her pale pain stricken face. Mimi turned and walked away but didn't get far before she collapsed onto the ground and cried her poor heart out.
Izzy cared about Mimi a lot and it hurt him to see her like that, being the smart person he was, he knew of her love for Matt. What matt had done to Mimi angered him deeply, he just turned and glared at him, then walked to where Mimi was crying on the ground, he put his arm around her and tried to get her to stop crying. All the others just stood there staring at him stunned in disbelief that he could be so cruel, even TK looked at him in disgust and went off with Kari to comfort Mimi. Matt would've kicked him self if he could've, he felt the worse he had ever felt in all his life.
He had managed to hurt the one person other than TK that he truly loved and cared about so much that it was most likely she would never be able to look at him again let alone talk to him. 'What the hell was I thinking? Matt kept asking him self his eyes now filling with tears. Matt decided to go and try and talk to her, to apologise for yelling at her, when he got close to where she was lying he could hear that her crying was only slightly calming down. Before he could get even close to her Tai came up and stood in his way,
"Matt I think you should just leave her alone ok?" "Tai I came to tell her I was sorry I need to talk to her to apologise" a tear now ran down his cheek but he didn't care whether people saw him crying neither did he care about anything else all he wanted to do was talk to her and set things straight.
Tai could see the pain in Matts eyes and new that his friend was most likely really sorry for what he did
"Come for a walk with me Matt," he said and Matt did, they started to head towards the forest he looked back and saw the others get up and start to follow behind and while they walked, they talked.
"Why did you do it Matt?" Tai asked Matt explained that he didn't know and that he thought it was mostly the jealousy he had of Tai and Sora and the fact that he couldn't bring up the courage to tell Mimi how he felt.
"I still love her Tai, I know It doesn't look like I do but I really do care about her," Matt confessed.
They had reached the edge of the forest Tai sat down and Matt followed suit.
"I never meant to hurt her honestly" he said the bowed his head more tears running free. 'Man I have never seen Matt cry at all before let alone full out crying, the poor guy he must really lover her' thought Tai. He looked down the forest line; the others had sat down to rest further down the line of trees.
