Title: Please Let It Now Be True

Chapter 2: Four Months Before

By: Burningwaters

Four Months before:

I was walking home from band practice. My bass was hanging around my shoulder. I stopped momentarily to adjust the strap.

"HEY! YAMATO WAIT FOR ME!!" I turned around and see a guy my age running toward me.

"Hey Taichi, how's it going?" I asked him as he caught up to me, breathing hard from the running.

"Terrible." He said shortly.

"Terrible?" I repeated.

"Yes...I just got off my cell with Hikari and you know what?" Taichi was mad; I could just see his blood boiling. I didn't answer him. He straighten up and looked me straight in the eyes.

"You know what?" he repeated, "Takeru asked her something."

My interest picked up. I gave him my undivided attention, "So what? He always asking her stuff, like go on a date or whatever." I smiled at him for getting so worked up.

He looked disturbed, I stopped teasing him. "He asked her something that wasn't suppose to be asked."

Now I was [really] interested in seeing what Takeru, my brother, asked his sister.

Taichi sighed. He combed his hair with his finger and looked me straight in the eyes. "He asked her to...marry him," Taichi spat out. I didn't know if I heard right. It was a shock. I continue to look at him with my mouth hanging open.

Taichi ranted on, "They are too young to make this kind of commitment. What was he thinking and what was she thinking accepting his offer?! Doesn't she know that she have to ask me first...my mom and dad...and what about us...its all about them." I regain my posture.

"Taichi..." He didn't hear me, "Taichi!" I said a little bit more forcefully, now I had his attention, "When did this happen?"

"Didn't he tell you today that he was going out on a date with her?" Taichi said, he was trying hard not to lose his temper.

"Yeah, I knew about that, he was excited. He asked me to come over to help him find the perfect suit to wear, I heard that he was going to take her to an expensive restaurant," I answered him. Ahhh...if looked can kill, I'd be a pile of dust right now. Taichi looked at me with such anger that made me laugh out loud.

"Well, you don't have to rub it in. Aw, c'mon man [your] brother asked [my] sister to [marry] him. Can't you see how wrong that is? I mean they are just kids," Taichi said.

"Sure, Taichi, sure, but you got to remember that those 'kids' your talking about are now 18 years old and been dating since they were pretty much the young age of 10," I smiled at him, "They aren't kids anymore. If they want to get married, I'm fine with that, I mean, haven't we always talked about them getting married in the future?" I looked at him with a small amusement in my eyes. He looked even more disturbed than before.

"Yeah...but...I thought the future means a [long] time from now, like in 30 years."

"Oh, I see it now," I teased him, "You think that you sister is too good for my brother." I could see him lighten up.

He smiled, "Of course, Hikari is way too good for the likes of an Ishida family." He punched me lightly on the arm.

 "You know what though?" I said, getting serious. "I think that we should talk to both of them, maybe we can get them to call this thing all off."

"Hey, I thought you were all for it," Taichi smiled. Now there was the old Taichi I know and love.

"Oh, yeah...I'm all for it...Over my dead body," I smiled and laugh. Taichi laugh too, I guess he now realize that he way over reacted for a moment there. "C'mon, lets go get something to eat." I hooked my arms in his and walked him toward a fast-food place.

"As long as you don't propose to me, Yamato," he batted his eyelashes at me.

"Oh, no,"  I answered with a mock seriousness, "I only propose to a person in a fancy restaurant and only when I get the ring  back from the jewelry shop." He smiled his sweet smile. It seems that he put the whole Takari thing in the back of his mind...well.... for the moment anyways.

As we head toward a nearby Burger King, people gave us weird look. We didn't care. At night, people do weird things, and when Taichi and I get together at night, we do weirder thing. That's just the way we are. We just don't take life for granted anymore. We don't stop being ourselves because people might think stuff. Not after the whole Digital Adventures we had before. It taught us that taking stuff for granted isn't a good thing, although we all still take life itself for granted, we never take the time that us ex-digidestined spend together for granted. Those days are rare now. I with my band. We have a manager, copyrighted songs, a studio and all the works. Taichi with his soccer team. He going pro. He's already gotten a lot of contracts coming his way, that boy has talent. Jyou is still in school. He now is closer to becoming a doctor than before. He taking his studies [very] seriously. Koushiro is on his way to becoming the next Bill Gates. Maybe even more famous. Everyone in the computer business wants him to sign up for them. Mimi is living in America still and is studying to become a lawyer. Could you believe it? Our little Mimi, studying to becoming a lawyer. That girl got more brain than what we gave her credit for. She even gotten herself into Harvard Law with a full four year scholarship.  Sora, like Taichi, is in the sporting business. She is one of the youngest female tennis player to go pro. Contactors are rushing to sign her up. Yup, us older digidestined are busy more often now that we are out of high school and either in college or becoming famous. I think that our adventures got to us all in a way that we can describe.

Takeru, Hikari, Daisuke, Miyako, and Ken are in their last couple of weeks of High School. Iori is still a sophomore. Takeru and Hikari have been going steady for a couple of years now. Although Daisuke greatly disagree with it, they try not to think about it. Surprisingly though, Daisuke sort of stopped trying to mess up their relationship when Ken told him that he love him. Daisuke of course was too surprise to speak, could you believe it, Daiskue, lost for words? But after a week or two of the silent treatment and awkward silence, they spoke and it turns out that Daisuke love Ken back. I smiled at the thought. Who would have thunk? Ken and Daisuke. They make a cute couple. It was a topic we all avoided for quite a while but now everyone is pretty much okay with it. Miyako is still that crazy fun loving girl we all know. She hasn't changed as much, except she dates more often. I swear, she has like a boyfriend once a week. She goes out with a boy for a week and if she likes him, she would continue for another week, if she doesn't, she would dump him. She made a name for herself, actually. Pretty popular with the guys. Iori still practices kendo. He takes it more seriously nowadays. Just like his studies.

These days the original digidestined doesn't have much time to spend with each other. We still keep in touch, either through writing mails or writing email. We find ways. But we always leave out one day, at least one day out of the year to meet. Just for fun. We would get together and talked about the good old days and what's going on now. For one day. We all chose that very same date where we first beat Myotismon.

"Yamato..." Taichi said in a singsong voice. I snapped back into reality. We hadn't said anything for a while. Looks like he was stuck in his own thoughts too but not as deep in his thoughts as me.

"What?" I looked around confuse. That's what I get for getting lost in my thoughts.

"We're here," Taichi said, point toward the BK sign.

"Oh," I blushed.

"Penny for your thought?" He asked as we crossed the final street.

"Hmmm? Oh, I was just thinking about everyone else." I knew that he would know what I was talking about so I didn't bother to explain any further.

"Oh...how long has it been now? 7, 8 years?" Taichi looked a little pained thinking about everyone else too.

"Yeah. It was so long ago, huh?" I held the door opened for him, we walked in and ordered and sat down.

"So..." Taichi said after a while of not saying anything.

"Do....whaa?" I mumbled with my mouth full of a whopper.

"What are we going to do about the whole Takeru asking Hikari to marry him thing." Guess he hadn't forgotten about it. Oh well.

"Hmm...Ah gwess," I swallowed my food and continued speaking, " we can talk to them. Try and talk em out of it."

"Ok, I agree with that. I'll talk to Hikari tonight. I wonder if mom and dad knows yet." Taichi looked thoughtful as he took another bite to eat.

I shrugged, "And I'll talk to Takeru too. Knowing him, he probably won't tell my mom until the wedding night." I took a bite to eat. We continue to eat in silence each with our own thoughts on what we are going to tell our younger brother and sister tonight when we get home.
