Epilogue

Sitting silently on a bench, watching the stars shine in the dark night, was a young girl, pondering slightly embarrassed about something. After Taichi and Mimi got together…well, it had urged her to do some serious thinking, self-contemplation included. She had to admit that lately her life had started revolving around petty little things like popularity. It was hard not to think about that when you were the girlfriend of the school's most popular guy…but still. She should've known better.

Rubbing her hands together to ward away the cold, a small smile caressed her features. Everything had changed. Something she would've dreaded in the past, yet learned to love now. Now her heart belonged to only two people, herself and her boyfriend. She'd never doubt again, never think of another again, now that she had him.

Which brought her too the thing that was troubling her now. She loved him, therefore wanted to be honest with him. Yet…would he still love her, if he knew? If he knew how selfish she'd been? Patching things up with Mimi and Taichi had been hard enough to do, yet both seemed to want nothing more then to have the old friendship restored. Something she had gladly agreed with. But still…doubt clawed at her heart as she heaved a heavy sigh. She'd have to take the risk.

Slowly he made his way over to where he had left his girlfriend, offering to go get both of them some hot cocoa, since the warm night was becoming more and more chilly. As he neared the bench, he stopped in his tracks, observing the small figure that seemed to be hidden completely in her coat. A tender smile tugged at his lips.

He had his Sora back. The Sora he fell in love with in the first place. He wasn't quite sure why or when it happened, but the thing that changed her not too long ago, seemed to be away now. She was back to being shy, loving and sweet Sora. His Sora.

Walking over to her, he noticed that her stare was fixed on a certain spot on the floor. Not seeing anything particular on that spot, except some dirt, he questioned softly, "Sora-chan?"

The brunette looked up startled and smiled, "Oh, Yama-kun! I didn't realize you were here already." Moving aside a little to offer him more space, she smiled shakily at him, forcing her nerves to harden so she could begin her speech, hoping to every possible deity out there that he wouldn't be mad.

He fixed his eyes on her face while handing her the cup of cocoa, and seeing her tensed shoulders and the nervous nibbling on her lower lip, he smiled. "Ne, Sora-chan?" She looked up with big eyes and nodded. He wrapped his arms around her as usual, wanting to be close to her. "I know that there's been some…misunderstandings and secrets between us lately. But now, with Taichi and Mimi, I finally realize what it is." She held her breath, fearing whatever he would say next. When she saw his warm, sincere smile, though, she relaxed, "But you know, Sora-chan? It doesn't really matter anymore. You're back to who you were before all this happened, you're back to the girl I fell in love with. And that's all that matters, don't you think?"

She simply nodded, tear-eyed, and buried her face in his shoulder. Feeling his arms wrap her around her a little tighter, her tears ended up falling anyway. The sky saw this as it's cue to start releasing the small, white crystals, making the hugging couple the centre of the romantic scenery.

(That's the way love goes)
(Ooh.. that's the way, ooh ohh..)
Like a moth to a flame
Burned by the fire
My love is blind
Can't you see my desire? Yeah..

That's the way love goes
(My love is blind, can't you see my desire?)
(That's the way, that's the way, that's way love goes..)

Don't mind if I light candles
I like to watch us play and
Baby, you've got on what I like
(That's the way...)
Come closer baby, closer
Reach out and feel my body
I'm gonna give you all my love
(that's the way love goes)

Oh sugar, don't you hurry
You've got me here all night
Just close your eyes and hold on tight
(baby, hold on tight)
Oh baby, don't stop, don't stop
Go deeper baby deeper
You feel so good I'm gonna cry (cry..)
Oh I'm gonna take you there
Oooh

That's the way love goes
That's the way love goes
(that's the way.. that's the way...)
That's the way love goes
That's the way love goes (ooh!)
That's the way love goes...
That's the way love goes
That's the way love goes
That's the way love, that's the way love…

That's the way love goes
