Sorry for the short absence, I had to sand floors all day and my arms are too sore to write. Plus I was sick and coughing out wood dusts.....okay enough about my boring self...here's chapter 6...
Oh and hehe.. I lied about sitting in front of my computer all day waiting for emails to show up. I got bored after five minutes and decided to checked on it at night. I found zero reviews at first...you wouldn't believe how surprised I was, I thought the reason was cuz my last chapter sucks so much. I pressed the check button ten times but nothing show up. It turned out that my author and review alerts aren't working and my whole email account was virused. Anyways, I had to go to the website to check it cuz the stupid alerts won't work. Wow, this is so great I actually got reviews! Go me! I read every one of them twice (or three times) thanks, you guys are great! okay enough AN, chapter 6.....

Chapter 6: Perfect Ending
Sometimes I lie awake at night and ask why me? Then a voice answers nothing personal, your name just happened to come up.

Tai's POV
That crazy son of a bitch! All because of him and that minor car trouble I missed my first and surely last date with Sora. Why does it always have turn out this way? My bad luck never cease. I'm going to call her now. Sure she'll be mad, I don't blame her. But I own her an explanation for not showing up and I'm man enough to give it. I picked up the phone, from my memory I dialed her number. "Hello?" The voice sounded gentle. But I feared it wouldn't be until I speak. "Hello, who's this?" I didn't want to say my name. A knife just stabbed my in the back and held there. "Hello?" "Um..sora it's Tai." I heard a click on the other side of the line. She hang up on me. Just like that. Man, why does she have to be so painful?
Shakingly, I dialed the number again, this time no one picked up. Figures. "The person you are trying to call is unavailable at the moment, please leave a message after the beep... "
"Sora, I knew what you must be thinking. But let me explain, I was so excited about the game and the fact that you're coming with me. Believe me, I didn't mean to just... I got in a car accident and..." my voice trailed off to a whisper.
"Oh my god Tai, you what?" Sora was actually listening. Her voice frightened when she picked up and spoke after hearing the word accident. "Are you okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine, but I didn't..." Sora stopped me and interrupted before I went into details. Good, she understood.
"It's okay. I just hope everythings all right. What happened?" she sounded concerned.
"I was going a little fast on the way because I wanted to get to your apartment as soon as possible. But then someone was making a turn in front of me, I reacted too slow and I crashed into him." I bursted out. Sora was quiet for a split second. I heard a laughter in the background. That laughter nearly made me choke. It was Matt! I almost forgot that he live with her now. Sometimes gazing at his face I just want to punch a hole in it. But then again, when I last saw him he already had a bruise on his face. Perfect, someone already did the work for me. It's nice to know I'm not the only one who hate him. Suddenly it hit me, the realization came like a stone dropping on my head. It's all clear to me now, Matt moving in and leaving with her. Of course, how could I ignore those stupid facts. Sora doesn't even like me. She's too busy liking Yamato. I have been such a idiot to believe that she changed her stubborn mind by accepting when I asked her out. Now I see what's really happening, all that talk about PDA. It was obvious that she only felt bad for me, who stood in the middle of her relationship with Yamato. I'm a fool getting played by that redhead.
"Tai, are you still..." Her voice was interrupted by the suddenly disconnected phone line. This time it was I who hang up.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I had no idea." Tai just hang up on me! What was that for? I placed the phone down. A half sleeping body coiled around me like a snake. Gingerly kissing my flesh. "Matt, stop it!" I hit him hard and sat up in the bed.
Late night was the best night of my life. I wish it would last longer. Oh god! Tai's going to smack both of us when he find out. Factually speaking, I'm cheating on him. He asked me out just last night and now I'm sleeping with Yamato. No...I gotta get up before he storms into my apartment and find out about this. I sighed and pushed away the head full of blonde wavy hair. "Matt, get up and put some clothes on." I demanded and chucked some T shirts and jeans to him.
"Aw, c'mon, just a few more minutes. I was beginning to enjoy this."
"Well, I'm not. Lay off. I'm going over to Tai's place." I said and put on a pair of green shorts and a yellow shirt. Matt gave out a heavy sigh. "Do you still have feelings for that guy? I mean, c'mon he didn't even..."
"He didn't show up last night because he was in a car accident! It's not his fault! Stop acting like such a baby." I yelled and got out of the room with half zipped jackets. Yamato ran after me and apologized, "Sorry, I was just caught up in the moment. So is he okay?" He asked in curiousness.
"Why do you care? You never care about him." I asked.
"Because he's your friend, and any friend of yours is my." I frozed at those words. Was Yamato joking?
"I'm coming with you." he said.
"No!" I stopped him, "Don't, I need to clear some things with him first." He nodded, "Okay." Wow, who knew two guys with slam ass bodies would fight over a plain girl like me...I didn't know what to think of all this attention I'm getting. It's wrong to enjoy this, but I feel so cherished. Quickly, I grabbed my keys and left after saying goodbye Matt.
It was a ten minutes drive to Tai's place. I knocked on the door a few times but no one answered. "Tai? Are you there?" I asked. Still no reply. I pushed on the doorknot. It was open. "Tai?" Peering into the first room I came upon, a bushy brown haired boy lay face down on a bed. He turned to face the wall when he saw me walking in. I wonder what's wrong?
"Hey," my voice came out cracky and funny like a cartoon character. He buried his face in his pillow, "I came to check on you."
"Stop all that fussing. I know why you're here." He said, still faced down in the pillow.
"Why? I mean..I just came to see if there anything wrong... you hang up on me," I wanted an explanation. Does he know? He knows that I'm cheating on him? But how? I sat down on the edge of his bed and waited patiently. The silence was adding on to my frustration. "Tai talk to me." He finally decided to sit up and say something. He's face was pink when he spoke. "I'm an idiot." He muttered. Okay, not the answer I seek.
"W--why?" I asked, "you didn't do anything wrong."
"Don't fool me with that innocent face. I know, I know everything. You don't care a damn thing about us. Go on and leave. Maybe Matt does suit you better." I was silent. Tai was right, Matt does suit me better. I've always felt comfortable around both of them. But up until now, Tai was already consider a friend in my mind. Tai didn't speak further, he didn't need to.
"I'm sorry," I whisper. It was pointless. Nothing won't make him feel better. Poor Tai, he doesn't deserve this. Wait till he finds out but the affair between me and Matt. I got up to leave. Just then a voice stopped me. "Sora wait!" He was glancing up my glittering orbs. I waited. "Don't feel bad about me. If you decide to change your mind, I'll be here." He winked and put on a grin. It was a forceful grin, but satisfying. Tai was completely different person, usually jealousy would take over him. This time, he simply let it go. I like it this way.
"Thanks, are we still friends?" I asked.
"Of course." He nodded confidently. I broke into tears. He reached out his arms and hugged me. Friendship was more like it. I never thought I could be this lucky. To get a guy who would devote his life for me and another who will always be here for me as a friend even through the toughest times. This is truely a happy ending.

Ah...you must be wondering if this is the end or not. I know, it doesn't seem like it but it's so hard to think of plots now. If there's going to be a next chapter, it might take a while. Reviews! I need suggestions. Lots of them.
