"Well, we're here, now where are they?" Joe said, heaving a sigh.
Mimi, walked over to him, grabbing his wrist.
"HEY! MIMI WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?"
She stared, focused at his watch.
"Hmm....well, it's 3:56. They should've been here by now."
"Well, T.K. said in 45 minutes, or so. So they'll probably be late." Matt stated, as the others were satisfied by his excuse.
Sora and Izzy glanced around, searching for any signs of the others.
"I still wonder what that surprise is, I was kind of hoping for a party." they all sighed, in exhaust. She giggled.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"C'mon you guys! We're already late!" Davis yelled towards the others, running towards the huge building that was the mall.
"Calm down Davis, I'm sure they'll wait, I told them it was surprise." T.K. hollered.
"Why did you tell them it was a surprise, why didn't you just tell them it was me?" Tai asked the younger boy.
"Well, I thought they couldn't resist, and puts a little fun into things. Don't you think? Everyone loves a surprise!" T.K. grinned, causing Tai to too.
'I hope that's true...but Sora..and Matt..' Tai thought to himself.
"You guys are slowpokes!" Davis cried, stopping his run.
"Sorry Davis, but I don't see a need to rush." Kari said, smiling.
'Told ya, he makes you smile!' her mind boasted again.
She gave an annoyed look, looking upwards.
"HELLO! TAI FINALLY CAME BACK! YOU DON'T FIND THAT A BIG DEAL! OF COURSE WE HAVE TO RUSH!" he yelled waving is hands, up and down in a comical fashion.
They all laughed.
"Davis, we all know it is a big deal, no one said otherwise, it's just we don't have to run, we're already here!" Cody pointed out.
"Hey, I appreciate this, but I don't think we should make such a big deal out fo this." Tai said modestly.
"Don't be silly Tai, of course we deal, or would you have us throw you a party? (A/n: maybe mimi was right?) It's nothing, just having a reunion!" T.K., answered him, smiling again.
Tai nodded, but still disagreed. He didn't feel he could face Sora or Matt again. They were pretty much the reason he left. He knew he had to do it though, he was after all, the child of courage. Then he thought about it. Running away from your problems, isn't very courageous. He sighed, lightly so no one could hear.
'I'm going to have to do this sooner or later, might as well have it be sooner.' Tai convinced himself.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Well, they're more than late now." Matt, mentioned. He sighed, and leaned back in his chair.
"I wonder what's keeping them..." Sora questioned, having a look of worry written across her face.
"Don't worry Sora, I'm sure they're alright. They're just running late is all." Izzy pointed out.
"Yeah I gu-" she was cut off by the hollering of a very familiar voice.
"HEY! YOU GUYS! SORRY WE'RE LATE!" Davis yelled, waving his hand. He ran towards them, and had a huge grin on his face.
"Davis! What took you guys so long?" Matt asked, his brow raised.
"Well, some of us are just slowpokes." Davis pointed out, looking behind him.
They all got up, and looked forward to see a very happy T.K.
"Hey guys! Sorry to keep you waiting! Well, are you ready for your surprise?"
"So...is it a party?" Mimi asked, hinting she'd like one.
Everyone except Davis, T.K., and Mimi sighed, and laughed it off.
"Well?" Joe asked, a bit agitated.
Kari and Cody, came in, Tai behind them, but unable for Sora, Matt, Mimi, Izzy, and Joe to see.
"Well what?" Davis asked, completely forgetting about Tai.
"Well...what's this big surprise you guys had to show us?" Matt asked, also agitated.
Davis wore a huge grin on his face, as did the others. This got the older digidestined, excluding tai, creeped out.
"Well..." T.K. said, making the suspense grow even more.
Tai sighed, softly.
'Why do they have to make this such a big deal!? This is kinda embarrassing! Can we please just get this over with...can't we just get everything over with...' Tai tought in his mind, thinking hard.
"See for yourselves." Cody said, as they all stepped back.
He stood there, looking as if he were lost in his thoughts. He was unaware, that everyone could see him.
"TAI!" they all said in unison, all but Sora. Their eyes went wide.
He looked up, and finally realized what was going on. He smiled sheepishly.
"..uh..hi?" he said, unsure of his words, waving one hand slightly.
They all hugged him tightly, all but.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE BACK!" Izzy exclaimed, hugging his long time friend the hardest.
"Wow! This is a great surprise!" Joe said.
"Tai, hey welcome back!? I have to say this is way better than any party!" Mimi said, as they let go, and laughed.
That was when Tai noticed something. Sora and Matt weren't there hugging him. Matt, was near them, a couple steps away, but Sora was no where to be seen. Davis also noticed this.
Just as he was about to say something, Matt walked in closer.
Tai and Matt hugged, quickly and barely even touching each other.
"Hey, welcome back..." Matt said, slightly smiling.
"Thanks, it's good to be back."
'I'm surprise he's even hugging me, getting near ,me even.' Tai thought.
Then Davis spoke up.
"Hey. Where's Sora?" that was when all of them, looked towards the empty space.
'Where..did she...This must be hard fo her....as it is for me..' Matt thought to himself.
'I'd better do something....' Mimi thought.
"Oh...well she said something about leaving her wallet at Starbucks. She probably went back to get it...I'll go get her." she rushed off.
"Yeah. I heard her too.." Matt said, trying to help cover it up.
"Oh...well she'll be surprised..." Davis said, without realizing what was going on in reality.
' I forgot, this must be really hard for her, and Tai. Matt too.' T.K. thought to himself, a look of worry spread across his face.
'Sora...I'm not surprised...' Tai thought sadly.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Sora? Sora?" Mimi asked, as she headed towards the women's bathroom, believing that Sora was most likely to be there. She entered, the lobby of the bathroom. (A/n: do they have lobbies in men's rooms? i wouldn't kno...xD i've been in the BOYS bathroom at shcool...just for like a sec. xD do they? or are us girls just special? i think we're just special. xD)
"Sora..." she said softly. She saw her sitting sown, sobbing. She went towards her best friend, rubbing her back. (A/n: okay yaoi lovers, this isn't yaoi in anyway! Ok! I'm okay with yaoi, but it's not what I'd consider comforting. So..yeah. NO YAOI IN HERE!)
"Sora....are you okay..?" Mimi asked trying to her calm her down.
'What kind of stupid question is that? Of course she's not!?" Mimi claimed in her head.
"Mimi....why?" Sora made out, still crying her mascara, running.
"Why....what?"
"...why did he come back!? Everything was going so well, and now..he just comes out of the blue." she cried harder.
"Sora...I thought you wanted him to come back.." that was when she noticed Sora was clutching onto something. She gave a better look, and saw that it was the golden locket Tai gave her 3 years ago. A look of disappointment spread through her voice.
'Oh Sora...you really do love him...'
"That's true, I thought I did, but now that he is here...I just can't! Seeing him, brought back all the pain I felt that day he left. The depression I was in, the way I broke his and Matt's hearts! How I almost ruined my big sister/little sister relationship with Kari! All of it..coming back....all of it..." she riled up, but calmed down with the last sentence.
"Oh Sora...listen, he may have brought pain back, but with that pain he brought happiness. You do want him back, you know you want him to be happy. He probably wants to puts things back in the past. But, you and I both know he can't. I 'm sorry to say it's not over yet, but you'll get through this whole ordeal, besides I don't even know if he's going to be staying or visiting...that must make you feel both sad and happy... huh?"
"...."
"You know Matt and I are here for you, so is everyone else. You can always talk to us...no matter what it is... I'm sorry if that doesn't make you feel better, but this is the best I can do for now." Mimi said, wiping Sora's tears.
"No...you did help, thank you, I'm glad I have a best friend like you. C'mon let's go." Sora said, flashing a weak smile.
Mimi nodded, as they got up.
"Sora, I think we'd better clean ya up first. Oh by the way, I told them you left your wallet at Starbucks, Matt back me up."
"Thanks."
Mimi helped Sora wiped the runny mascara off her face. Then, applied makeup to cover it up.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Mimi and Sora entered the group 15 minutes later. All of them, staring at the two girls.
"Hey Sora, find your wallet?" T.K. asked, his tone flat, and knowing the truth.
She nodded.
"Hey, Sora.." Tai said, softly.
'Tai...well here I go..' She walked up towards Tai, and gave him a hug, similar to the same as Matt's.
She hid her real feelings, the anger, the sadness, all the pain that she felt. she did the only way she knew how, with a smile and a soft hug, likes Matt's.
"Nice to know you came back."
"Yeah, nice to be back." he replied, giving a soft smile.
'That's it!? They're supposed to best friends! You'd think she'd hug him tight enough to kill him!' Davis thought angrily in his head, still not realizing the pain they must be going through.
No one else was shocked at their actions, expecting this kind of thing.
"So, where do you guys want to go?" Joe asked.
"Well, how about we g-" Davis said but interrupted, by the screaming of a girl.
"TAI! TAI! TAI! " Yolei yelled, waving her arm back and forth.
She ran up towards him, hugged him tightly. Everyone stepped back, giving her room.
"Please...let go!" Tai gasped.
She did as he asked, and everyone laughed. Even Matt and Sora let out a little chuckle.
'Why did this seem to be so hard? I just want this day to be over...I think? I must be the only one seeing this as 'hard'....but...then again....' Sora thought to herself, and then stared at Matt. She noticed the tiny fake smile he wore. How his deep blue eyes were filled with different emotions. Angry, sad, jealousy...and so on. His eyebrows curved a bit at the top, showing his worry.
She sighed, but without letting anyone notice. Sora stared back at the ground, and thought to herslef.
'I guess I'm not alone..that's good.....I think. At least I can share the pain with Matt...I always have been able to, before and after Tai left...' (A/n: I may be hinting some Sorato...but that's just keep ya guessing...ok I'll just tell u....its TAIORA! Duh! XD there is going to be a scene where Matt says he still loves Sora and then Sora.. U'll juts have to wait! I'm so evil1 xD)
"So...where to Tai?" Mimi asked.
"Why are you asking me?"
"Well you're like a guest, so you get to decide. Besides, it's nice to have our old leader back." Joe said.
"What, you think I'm old?" Tai asked, letting out a chuckle.
"Hey, by the way! Mimi, what are you doing here!?" Tai asked, shocked.
"What!? You just noticed!?" Mimi asked, yelling.
"Sorry, I guess it was just with all the excitement and stuff.."
Mimi giggled.
"Well, I came back two years ago. I'm a senior at Odaiba High now." she smiled, as she walked closer towards Matt and Sora.
"Oh, that's nice. So...what are your plans for next year guys?" he was referring to Izzy, Matt, Joe, and Sora.
"Well, I guess I'm still gonna be working on my degree." Joe answered.
"That's right, you're becoming a doctor, so how's that going?"
"Fine, a bit hard, but I can take it."
He looked at Izzy, showing that he was asking him now.
"I'm going to be attending KTI, Kyoto tech. Institute (A/N:I have no idea! I just made it up and this is the best I can do! xD)
Tai responded with a grin.
"Of course ya are! I always knew you'd go into some computer school."
Izzy smiled back, and let out a little chuckle.
"Heh. Yeah I guess."
Then, Tai drifted hie eyes towards Matt and Sora. They all wanted to just 'act' like friends, but knew it seemed too awkward. Tai, tried his best not to let the doubt drift.
"So...what about you guys?" Tai asked, smiling lightly.
"Oh, well Sora and I are both going to UJO (A/n: I was thinking of UCLA. Hehe) University of Japan Odaiba."
Sora nodded.
"He's majoring in Graphic Design, while I'm doing Floral (A/n: ok, I don't really like these for them, but we have to do a report on careers we want to do, I'm doing graphic design, while my friend's doing floral. Also, ya know Sora flowers..get it? I don't xD)
'Together huh?..of course'
"Oh I see. That's nice. I'm sure you'll both do good." he smiled, his chocolate orbs showing happiness. They both smiled in response, as they showed happiness, but all of them unsure of their actions.
(A/n: I don't know if I told you guys already, but Tai doesn't know they broke up. There's gonna big scene about that! Ooo!)
"What about you Tai? Are you going to stay here in Japan, or stay in California?" Kari asked, as he say the hope in her eyes.
'She shouldn't be thinking that, they all shouldn't. The news will just hurt them...'
"...I-I'm not so sure...well, I might move back, I'm not still sure, ....but I think I'll stay in California for a little while more. Then come back...I'm sorry."
The hope in Kari's eyes, as everyone else's, faded, but a bit still there.
"Oh ok, well just as long as you do! I guess this means we'll just have to spend even more time together!" Kari said, excitement in her voice.
'How can think of doing this!? He has to make a choice! He can't just be so impulsive! If does stay, he won't have time to apply for college, and if he goes back than what?..this is all too confusing...but...what do I want....' Sora thought to herself, then looked at the others.
She noticed how they all were, sad..but still happy. The only ones with expressions showing that they were thinking were, Joe, Izzy, and Matt.
All of their thoughts were just about the same as Sora's. They wondered about his future, what his plans were for college. She noticed took a good look Matt, as if trying to read his mind. He noticed, and stared at Sora.
"Sora..what is it?" he whispered.
"...Matt do-...um..it's nothing.." she whispered. She faced the others again, as she noticed Tai laughing with Kari.
"...if you say so...." he was worried now. He needed to talk to her. Find out if she felt the same as him.
"Well...if I go back to California, which seems to be thee best thing...which I'm sorry for, I'll go to UCLA." Tai answered, which was probably a question asked by Izzy.
"Well, what if you stay?" Cody asked, looking up.
"Wel...I figure it's too late to apply for a college, which is why I might go back, and if so, then I'll have to apply next year. I'd rather not to go to college a year later."
"That makes sense. It does make seem better to go back to California, even thought I don't want you to." T.K. said.
"Yeah, and we could always visit!" Yolei said.
They were all in the conversation, except for Mimi, Matt, and Sora.
Mimi began to study the expression written on Sora and Matt's faces. She saw something she didn't expect. Happiness. She saw as they both had tiny smiles on their faces, as they were watching the others.
'Why...are they happy?...well, I know why I'm happy, I missed Tai, and haven't seen him the longest. That's it..they miss him..they're glad he's back...I'm glad too.' she brought up a mile similar to theirs.
"This is pretty nice...seeing them happy like this." Mimi said, breaking the silence.
They both nodded.
"I've missed this...seeing everyone act like we used to..happy." Sora said.
"No. They're not acting, this is real. And I'm glad for that." Matt said.

"Of course ya are! I always knew you'd go into some computer school."
Izzy smiled back, and let out a little chuckle.
"Heh. Yeah I guess."
Then, Tai drifted hie eyes towards Matt and Sora. They all wanted to just 'act' like friends, but knew it seemed too awkward. Tai, tried his best not to let the doubt drift.
"So...what about you guys?" Tai asked, smiling lightly.
"Oh, well Sora and I are both going to UJO (A/n: I was thinking of UCLA. Hehe) University of Japan Odaiba."
Sora nodded.
"He's majoring in Graphic Design, while I'm doing Floral (A/n: ok, I don't really like these for them, but we have to do a report on careers we want to do, I'm doing graphic design, while my friend's doing floral. Also, ya know Sora flowers..get it? I don't xD)
'Together huh?..of course'
"Oh I see. That's nice. I'm sure you'll both do good." he smiled, his chocolate orbs showing happiness. They both smiled in response, as they showed happiness, but all of them unsure of their actions.
(A/n: I don't know if I told you guys already, but Tai doesn't know they broke up. There's gonna big scene about that! Ooo!)
"What about you Tai? Are you going to stay here in Japan, or stay in California?" Kari asked, as he say the hope in her eyes.
'She shouldn't be thinking that, they all shouldn't. The news will just hurt them...'
"...I-I'm not so sure...well, I might move back, I'm not still sure, ....but I think I'll stay in California for a little while more. Then come back...I'm sorry."
The hope in Kari's eyes, as everyone else's, faded, but a bit still there.
"Oh ok, well just as long as you do! I guess this means we'll just have to spend even more time together!" Kari said, excitement in her voice.
'How can think of doing this!? He has to make a choice! He can't just be so impulsive! If does stay, he won't have time to apply for college, and if he goes back than what?..this is all too confusing...but...what do I want....' Sora thought to herself, then looked at the others.
She noticed how they all were, sad..but still happy. The only ones with expressions showing that they were thinking were, Joe, Izzy, and Matt.
All of their thoughts were just about the same as Sora's. They wondered about his future, what his plans were for college. She noticed took a good look Matt, as if trying to read his mind. He noticed, and stared at Sora.
"Sora..what is it?" he whispered.
"...Matt do-...um..it's nothing.." she whispered. She faced the others again, as she noticed Tai laughing with Kari.
"...if you say so...." he was worried now. He needed to talk to her. Find out if she felt the same as him.
"Well...if I go back to California, which seems to be thee best thing...which I'm sorry for, I'll go to UCLA." Tai answered, which was probably a question asked by Izzy.
"Well, what if you stay?" Cody asked, looking up.
"Wel...I figure it's too late to apply for a college, which is why I might go back, and if so, then I'll have to apply next year. I'd rather not to go to college a year later."
"That makes sense. It does make seem better to go back to California, even thought I don't want you to." T.K. said.
"Yeah, and we could always visit!" Yolei said.
They were all in the conversation, except for Mimi, Matt, and Sora.
Mimi began to study the expression written on Sora and Matt's faces. She saw something she didn't expect. Happiness. She saw as they both had tiny smiles on their faces, as they were watching the others.
'Why...are they happy?...well, I know why I'm happy, I missed Tai, and haven't seen him the longest. That's it..they miss him..they're glad he's back...I'm glad too.' she brought up a mile similar to theirs.
"This is pretty nice...seeing them happy like this." Mimi said, breaking the silence.
They both nodded.
"I've missed this...seeing everyone act like we used to..happy." Sora said.
"No. They're not acting, this is real. And I'm glad for that." Matt said.
