Izzy'z Advice

The noon bell rang and the students shuffled out of their classes to take their lunch break. Tai sat alone at a table. His head was resting in his hand and he had a dazed look upon his face, like he was just staring blankly into the sky. Izzy walked over and at beside him.

"Hey Tai," he greeted. Tai didn't answer him. Izzy raised an eyebrow and pokes him hard in his arm. "Tai?"

Tai blinked and shook his head. He turned his head towards Izzy. "Huh?"

Izzy gave him a concerned look. "What's up with you?"

Tai shrug his left shoulder. "I don't know."

"Yeah you do. C'mon, you can tell me what's going on with you."

"Okay, okay…" Tai took a breath of air. "Well you see, this morning…I was talking to Sora…"

"Uh huh," Izzy said, beginning to get more interested. "Please continue."

"Well she told me that she had a 'personal problem' or something and she needed my advice…"

Izzy nodded and urged him to continue the story. "And what would that 'personal problem' be?"

Tai bit his lip. "Well…" he stalled.

Izzy's eyes widened. "She's not pregnant or something…is she?"

Tai's face began to redden. "No! No! It's not that!"

Izzy laughed. "Okay that's good. So what is it?"

"Okay. She likes a guy…"

Izzy frowned and rolled his eyes. "Ooh. Big deal…Sora has liked lots of guys before—"

"I know, but she says that she's known him for a long time. So I've been thinking…What if it might have been me?"

Izzy scratched his chin and nodded a little. "Well why would you think that?"

"Well, Sora and I have known each other for practically our whole life. And when she was asking me for my solution to her problem, she was really embarrassed. And also, she asked me on how to ask someone out. She could have asked one of her other little friends. But she wanted my opinion. It all points to that she's in love with me!"

"I see you've put a lot of thought into this…" Izzy smirked. "Well why don't you just go over there and ask her?"

"Izzy, that's stupid. I can't just go over to her table and say 'Hey Sora are you in love with me?' It just doesn't work like that. If she does like me, I'll just have to wait until she asks me out." Tai looked over at the table that Sora was sitting at. "I can't do anything else," Tai sighed.

"Why does she have to ask you first?" Izzy asked.

Tai raised his eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"What I'm saying is…Maybe you should ask Sora out. In that case if she decides to chicken out, you'll still win!"

"But…but what if I'm not the guy she was talking about?"

"You were pretty damn sure she was a minute ago. But the good thing is that if it isn't you and you win her over, then she'll forget about the other guy and go with you!"

"Nice logic…But it would never work. She probably say no…"

"But you don't know that yet. And you never will if you don't do something. I know you want to ask her out. And it's as clear as day that you are in love with her." Izzy grinned as he watched Tai's face turn crimson. "Trust me Tai. It'll work. All my plans have worked in the past."

 "I guess you are right..." Tai smiled. "Well…I'll try to. Maybe thing will work out if I do."

"That's the spirit!"

A/N: Wai! I'm so sorry for not adding on for months. But I'm starting to get back into the grove so I'll probably be writing more. Please review and keep reading. Bye!
