I don't own Digimon or the songs in this story.
Looking Back
Chapter 6
The music was perfect, the lights were dimmed, and I was in the arms of the boy I loved. But the plans were all ready made and I was ready to go. There was nothing I could do about any of it. I leaned up and kissed Matt on the lips as a tear slid down my cheek. The song ended and I pulled at his hand. He looked at me quizzically and I just pulled him through the crowd. Our friends came up, smiling at us but I walked right past them with Matt in tow.
Once we were outside and alone he pulled me into his arms. "Oh, I see. You wanted to be alone. I like this ...." I hushed him as I turned and kissed him again, and the tears flowed down my face. This was a kiss of desperation and he could tell. It was full of hunger, loving, and fear.
We broke apart and he held my face lovingly between his hands, wiping the tears with his thumbs. "Sora, honey .... What is wrong?"
I just stared at him. The beautiful face that over the years I had come to love, so much. From the first time I had met him I knew that he was different, special. And even when we were first in the digital world, I had always felt something special for him. I had always wanted to support him. And in turn he had always supported me. And our friendship had grown into love. A love that was now ripping me apart. If only I had known that he still loved me ... I would have done more. I would have stayed.
"Matt, there is something that you don't know. Something that I have to tell you ...."
He looked at me and grabbed my hands in his own as I trembled, "Okay, so tell me."
I took a deep breath and uttered the words that were going to tear my soul apart, "Matt Ishida, I love you with every breath in my body. I love your heart, your friendship, your commitment to Tai, Tk, and the others in our group. How you have been there for the younger digidestined and helped them out. How you never gave up, and how you saved me over and over again. I love everything about you. Even the way you start humming when you are troubled and go off by yourself because you still haven't managed to show emotion..."
He smiled at me a kissed my forehead, pulling me to his chest. "I love you too, Sora."
But I interrupted his reply, "I'm not done." The tears began to flow faster down my face. "It seems that every time things are right between us, fate steps in and challenges us further. Whether it be Dark masters, the world depending on us, or a long separation."
He looked at me in recognition then, knowing what I was about to say. So I continued, "Matt, I'm leaving tomorrow. I leave for New York for school ... Design school."
He was shaking his head in denial, "Then stay."
It was the most simple thing that could be said, but his eyes held what he meant. He loved me and didn't want to loose me. So I held his face with my hands, making sure he was looking into my eyes. "You don't know how hard it was to get in. And how hard I've worked to afford it. I just can't stay."
He just blinked at me. "Sora, aren't we more important than that? I thought you loved me."
I shook me head, "But don't you see? It's ripping me apart Matt. All I have thought about for months has been this. I thought you didn't care anymore."
He took my hand and kissed the back of it, making me shudder, "But I do - so there is no reason to go now. You can go to school here, with me."
I pulled my hand away, "Matt, how can you say that? Haven't I always supported you and your dreams. When you wanted to make a band, I was there for you. When you wanted to tour, I supported you and waited here for you. I worked hard to get into the best design school in the world, and you want me to stay here after all of that?"
"But this is different ..."
I cut him off, "How is this different?" I turned around and my back was to him.
He pulled me back around, "I just got you back, damn it! And you say that you love me, and now your leaving me?"
I stared at him, blinking back the fresh tears. "Matt, I love you so much, but all I am asking is that you wait for me. Four years - I know it seems like forever. I'll be back and we can be together." I held his hand then and gripped it, pleading with him to understand what I was going through and that I loved him.
"No ...." It was a single word, but it completely destroyed my world. I felt a dark sinking. "If you can't stay with me now and give up this stupid stuff, then I won't wait."
I looked at him, and could barely make out his face through the tears in my eyes. I took a breath and said, "Then so be it. Goodbye Matt." I turned and walked away from him. Leaving my heart with him.
I blindly made my way home, the pain in my heart making it harder and harder to walk. I passed my mother, not answering her questions as I made my way to my room. My room that was bare now, due to my departure the next morning. It was bare like my heart.
I changed my clothes and sat down at my desk. Putting my head down on my arms I cried again, but stopped because I had no more tears. So it was just dry sobs that escaped my mouth.
I knew then that I needed to say one last thing. I knew what my decision was. I would leave it up to him.
So, I pulled my stationary out of my boxes and wrote him a letter. When I was done, I wrote a letter to my best friend and the other digidestined. I loved them so much and it had taken this to make me realize it.
I slipped out of the apartment into the dead silence of the night and walked to each one of their homes. Slipping my letters under their doors, I blew a sad kiss goodbye to each of them. Then I came to the last home. It was his. I kissed the letter, crossed my fingers, and slipped it under his door.
He had until morning to change my mind.
I slowly made my way home, again. This time for the last time. And when I reached my bed, I collapsed in tears and exhaustion. Ready to awake for the day ahead of me.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
But you see, my darlings, he was having a hard time forgetting me. That morning he had been awoken by the phone ringing ....
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Matt woke himself from his dream. Actually it had been more of a nightmare. Over and over again he had seen Sora being ripped form his arms. When the phone rang it had been a blessed relief from the torments of his dreams.
"What is it?" he said grumpily into the receiver.
The voice on the other end of the line answered just as gruffly, "How could you let this happen?" It was Tai's voice.
Matt frowned, "What are you talking about?"
There was a muffled curse. "Sora is leaving - What did you do?"
It dawned on Matt what he was talking about then. "I didn't do anything. She choose her life over me."
Tai groaned, "And here I thought that you had grown up."
Matt tuned out as he left his room and walked into the kitchen. Tai had no idea what Matt felt or what he was going through ...
If this ever gets to you
Will you know it's from me
Would you think it was a joke
Throw it back to the sea
Passing his door and ignoring Tai he saw an envelope in the hall.
Tai was still talking, "Sora sent me a note, telling me how to contact her for the digital world problems and telling me how much she loved me. There was one for Kari too ..."
Matt head this much of Tai's mumbling as he opened the envelope...
Do you, Do you know everything I'm feeling
Do you know how no one could love you more
My true North
It was Sora's handwriting and Matt's heart started beating faster. Tai was still ranting and Matt said, "Shut up Tai! I have a note too."
And he started to read it.
If this ever gets to you
Will you please forgive me
I was the one who let you down
It's too late for sorry
Dear Matt,
I love you, and you mean everything to me. I will leave it all for you - if you still want me. My plane leaves at 10:00 and I will watch for you. If you come - I 'll stay. I understand if you don't come.
With Love,
Sora
Matt stood for a minute in stunned silence. It was Tai's voice that brought him back to reality. "Matt! What did she say?"
Matt wasn't understanding and was mainly talking to himself, "I have to go get her. She can't leave without knowing ..."
Tai was still yelling as Matt hung up the phone and grabbed his keys running out the door.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I was upset and knew if he came that I would give it all up. So, I went to the airport, because I needed him to come for me. My mother was crying, as was my father. But they were both so proud of me. I sat at my gate - waiting for either them to call my flight, or him to come to me. I held my mother's hand, more for my own sake rather than hers.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Matt looked at his watch, running to catch her. It was 9:45 and he was almost to the airport. The traffic was moving so slowly. He was almost there. Only a few more minutes. "Hold on Sora."
Do you know everything I'm feeling
Do you know how ... No one could love you more
My true North
If I told you and made it clear
Would you still be here
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was time.
My flight was still boarding and my life was changing. Things would never be the same. Sure, ever since our first bout with the digital world things had been different. But now I was leaving. My mother, my father were not going to be there and I was going to make my own way in life.
The thing was, I would give it all up for him. I strained my neck again to look for him. But there was no sign of him.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Matt rushed towards the gate of her flight - even as he heard them call final boarding. He broke into a flat run.
If this ever gets to you
Will you still remember me?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I sat in my seat, after stowing my luggage above me. I moved my head back against my seat and closed my eyes - sighing in pain. My heart was breaking and there was nothing I could do about it.
I felt almost as dark as the time in the digital world when I had been surrounded by the darkness in my heart. But Matt, and Joe, had been there to pull me out of it. That was when I had really started to realize my feelings for him. He had given me hope and I had made it out of that. But now - the only way I would get out of this was for him to give me hope once again. After all - he wasn't the only one of the Ishida boys that had the gift of hope. He had done it for his brother too - against Piedmon. But things were different. The world didn't rely on this.
But it sure felt as if my world depended on it....
The stewardess closed the door and as she did a chapter of my life closed with it. It was a long flight and all I had to do was enjoy it. But all I could do was think about him.
When I think back on these times
And the dreams we left behind
I'll be glad because I was blessed to get to have you in my life
When I look back on these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me
In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life
I'll keep a part of you with me
And everywhere I am there you'll be
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Matt was arguing with the woman at the gate. They wouldn't let him on the plane - at all. Not for anything. He ran over to the window and pressed himself against it - beating and yelling. Hoping for her to see him.
Do you do you know everything I'm feeling
Do you know no one could love you more
The tears were streaming down his face ....
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The tears were streaming down her face. He couldn't forgive her. And she leaned her head against her window and sobbed his name.
"Matt, I will always love you."
Well you showed me how it feels
To feel the sky within my reach
And I always will remember all the strength you gave to me
Your love made me make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me
In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life
I'll keep a part of you with me
And every where I am there you'll be
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was Tai who came up behind Matt and brought him out of his trance. He had sat at the glass for hours just staring out.
"Come on, you can't stay here forever. It's only four years. You can wait." Tai said trying to comfort his friend.
Matt shook him off, "You don't understand. She was willing to give it all up for me. She loved me that much. I wanted to tell her that I would wait a thousand years if it took that long. Now she thinks that I don't love her anymore and she might move on."
Tai smiled, "Come on, Man. She loves you. Just have faith."
Matt grinned for the first time that day, "You sound like TK."
"Well, maybe he is right."
But Matt was fretful, his love thought he hated her. What would she think in four years?
Time would tell....
I'm so lost
Never felt so alone.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I awoke from my tear-filled sleep to find that we had landed. I got my bags and got off the plane to find Mimi waiting for me. She ran up and enveloped me in her arms, hugging me.
"Sora! I've missed you! Joe is circling with the car ...." She noticed my tear stained face and said, "What is the matter?"
I tried a feeble smile and said, "I'll tell you in a little bit."
She shrugged and started walking. Looking out the windows, I blinked back the tears again.
"Matt forgive me. Wait for me ..."
And with that I turned and followed my friend. Time would tell what lay in store for us .....
Cause I always saw in you my light my strength
And I want to thank you now for all the ways
You were right there for me
In my dreams I'll always see you soar above the sky
In my heart there'll always be a place for you for all my life
I'll keep a part of you with me
And everywhere I am there you'll be
And everywhere I am there you'll be
There you'll be
A/N - Okay, so there is the next chapter in the saga, lol. I went back and redid some of the other chapters because I was unhappy with the way they turned out. I hope that you think it is a better story now. The song during Matt's portion of the story was "True North" by Fisher on her "True North" Soundtrack (No. 5 if you want to listen to it). The song during Sora's part was "There You'll Be" from the Pearl Harbor soundtrack. I hope that you liked this part, I promise it will get happier. Please review!
