New York, Sometime Early in the Morning
There were bangs on her front door and thankfully her parents wasn't home, Mimi sighed, wondering how the hell he managed to find her home. Well, let's get the reason why the hell someone was banging her front door wanting to talk to her. No, it's not because she is being robbed or anything like that, it was because yesterday morning, when they were supposed to meet and "talk", she chickened out and locked herself in her room.
"MIMI, I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!" a voice from the other side of the door shouted then in a softer voice, "Mimi, come on… I need to talk to you… We also have to go to the college this afternoon. You said you'll go with me when I make my decision, remember?"
Mimi was tempted to turn the knob of the door, then remembered what she might do to Yamato is she does.
She hated it and at the same time loved it – the fact that she loves Yamato Ishida. The way he gives off his cool smirks and running his hand through his hair unconsciously to make it more unruly, making him cooler in the process… and plenty more things, they all make her love Yamato Ishida.
She loved him to bits and pieces yet she couldn't love him. He loves another, and that other loves him and going into the picture would just make her a nuisance. He thought of nothing else of her than a friend…
Once again, a voice came from the other side of the door, desperate and determined, "Please… Mimi, you have to know some things… I can't keep it in me, not anymore, not when I know I have to leave soon! I know I will come back but I… I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!"
The echo spread to the whole neighborhood and since it was early in the morning, it probably woke a lot of people up as well… Mimi sighed, knowing that leaving Yamato outside there shouting his heart out would mean a lot of complaints from the neighbors, their family doesn't need any of that. It already took a while for their family to fit in the neighborhood. In conclusion, she stood up and turned the doorknob seeing a shabby Yamato, unshaven and probably sleepless (just how many nights? Hmm… think around 3-4).
Finally seeing that Mimi opened the door, he immediately gave her a hug (still completely friendly here).
Mimi, feeling Yamato's arms wrapped around her blushed lightly, "Yamato…"
"Mimi… we need to talk…" Yamato told her.
Mimi nodded, "I know…" she then closed the front door (in case of any peepers out there).
She led him to sit on the couch with her and he obliged.
"So Mimi…" Yamato began. 'Damn, I've been pestering her to open the door so we can talk and now, I'm chickening out… UGH!' Yamato thought.
"Look I'm sorry…" both said at the same time as they blinked.
Yamato was first to talk, "Uh… so you mean, you didn't go to the café yesterday?"
Mimi shook her head, "You didn't either?"
"Well, yeah… because you see, I told you I'll confess something, right? But in the end, I ended up chickening out and everything. All this time I thought you kept yourself locked up here, not opening the door for me was because you were mad." Yamato grinned sheepishly.
Mimi laughed, "Well… I was nervous since I thought I stood you up and you know… in the end, both of us didn't go anyway."
Yamato then looked at her questioningly, "Uh… then, just one question… why'd you not go to the coffee shop yesterday anyway?"
"Uh… well… uh…" Mimi was speechless, apparently she hadn't thought of a good excuse for this one yet.
Yamato smiled, "Uh, no worries… you don't have to tell me."
Mimi smiled, "Thanks Yamato…"
~A blanket of silence~
Yamato chose to break the silence that enveloped the two of them for a moment, "So Mimi, coming with me to the college later?"
"Of course I am, I promised, didn't I?" Mimi smiled widely (well, she forced it anyway).
Yamato smiled as well, "Yeah… you did and as a matter of fact, I sorta promised you I'd tell you something now, right?"
Mimi nodded.
"Mimi, look, I know my feelings isn't how you feel, or is it beneficial to everyone but… I, I can't stand living a lie. Actually, yesterday, (means Thursday night for Sora) I… Sora and I, we broke up. I was actually quite relieved that I didn't have to hurt her but you see, the pressure, the tension, everything… still remained… I, Mimi I, I love you." Yamato choked out then scratched his head afterwards, "I know I'm acting pathetic and everything. I know just hearing this might make you sick of me, seeing that you were the one I thought about here instead of Sora, that you are the one I love. I know you haven't gotten over Koushiro yet and… and that I'm not good enough for you… and that…"
Yamato continued to ramble on…
Mimi, hearing Yamato's speech smiled, one of the few things that caught her ear there is that Sora and Yamato broke up because they BOTH wanted to, not because of her, or just Yamato/Sora alone.
Yamato still continued to ramble on… (Yamato-kun's very noisy when nervous, isn't he? -__-)
Mimi smiled then looked at Yamato straight in the eye, the blonde barely noticed this and STILL continued to ramble on…
Mimi sighed and then shook Yamato for a moment, "Yamato…?"
"What is it Mimi?" Yamato asked her.
"Shut up and just kiss me." She put her lips on his and did their postponed kiss (which was supposed to happen last Wednesday). Yamato's eyes widened but soon deepened the kiss afterwards.
~a few moments pass~
Yamato looked at Mimi in shock, "So… this means… you… you like me?"
Mimi laughed, "No, you baka Yamato," Yamato face-faulted, "I LOVE YOU! DAISUKI YAMATO ISHIDA!" Mimi shouted throwing herself into Yamato's arms.
Yamato laughed then stroked her hair, "Better get going to that college,"
Mimi grinned lazily, "Aw… can't we stay for a while longer?"
Yamato kissed the top of her nose, "Okay, just don't get me late or I won't be here with you, that's a whole five years…"
"Hai, hai!" Mimi smiled cheerfully, "Ne Yamato, why did Sora and you broke up? Well, I can get your part… (she blushed lightly at this moment) but why Sora?"
Yamato smiled, "Well, she happens to love a certain stubborn soccer player… I hope things go well for them as it did for us…"
Mimi smiled, "Of course it will, I know Taichi loves Sora… now if he isn't just that naïve to notice Sora feels the same way now…"
"Yeah, but of course if he hurts Sora, his face will meet my fist…" Yamato laughed, "They're my two closest friends after all…"
Mimi blinked then with a sly grin, "What am I to you?"
Yamato laughed, "As if you needed to ask, you are my love of course…"
Mimi laughed, "Yeah…"
"We better get going, I'll treat you for lunch…" Yamato told Mimi.
"Why not?" Mimi laughed.
Both of them, hand in hand exited the room, hearts light, knowing that their feelings isn't a one-sided thing…
It was a mutual feeling… :)
