Disclaimer- I don't own Digimon or the movie "A Walk to Remember"
I want to say thank you to everyone that's reviewed my story at this current point! It means a lot to me!
~^~Chapter 9- Finally~^~
(A/N: This chapter takes place about a week after the last one. This chapter also skips around a lot so prepare for that.)
Sora grabbed a tissue and wiped her eyes that were currently filled with warm, sad tears. She sniffed and continued munching on the popcorn that was in a bowl on her lap. Her legs were curled underneath her and Matt and Tai were casually sitting to her left on the other side of the couch. The only light in the room from that of the TV. Matt and Tai didn't really get the whole point of the chick-flick they were viewing. Sora had chosen "A Walk To Remember" and it was at the part where Landon is crying because he just found out that Jaime had cancer.
"It's so *sniff* beautiful... He loves her so much..." Sora sniffled as she grabbed onto Matt's arm.
"I don't get it. Why do chicks cry over stupid shit like this? It's so pointless! He loves her, she loves him, lets have sex and get married!" Tai commented to Matt which in return made him laugh. The two boys had become good friends over the past week and a half, mainly because Sora and him are always together.
"Well, Sora likes it so I guess if she's happy, I'm happy," Matt said back. Sora wasn't paying attention to their conversation because she was too focused on the movie.
"You'll do anything to make her happy, won't you?"
"Of course I will/ She means a lot to me."
"You two aren't even together yet, though."
"Going out and not going out doesn't mean anything. You're not going out with her and you still love her, right?"
"Yeah, I love her, but not in the same way you do. When are you finally going to pop the question and ask her out, man?"
"I've got it all planned out. She and I both don't have any classes on Tuesday so I'm going to take her out tomorrow where we had our first date. When the moment is right I'll ask her. I hope she says yes..."
"Believe me, dude, she will. This girl never stops talking about you and she's always dancing around the room. You make her happy as hell. It's like she's high 24/7!"
Matt laughed just as Sora laid her head down on his shoulder. She then laced her fingers through his.
"I love how I can share this moment with you, Mattie," Sora said with a smile.
"Um, yeah. Same here, Sora," Matt replied as Tai laughed at them.
The movie ended no longer than 30 minutes later. It was getting late so Matt decided that it was time for him to get going. Tai watched the two from the couch and smiled. He was happy that Sora had found that special someone she had been looking for for so long, yet he was also somewhat jealous because he hadn't found anyone special.
"I'll see you tomorrow, belle," Matt said placing his lips on hers.
"I had fun tonight. Thank you for coming over," Sora replied kissing him back.
"Anything for you. Bye, baby," Matt smiled and walked out of the house.
Sora shut the door and skipped back over to the couch. She sat down with a big smile on her face and Tai stared at her.
"What?" She asked by his sudden expression.
"Nothing. I was just curious about something."
"And that is?"
"Why haven't you told him that you love him yet?"
"Tai..."
"What? I'm serious!"
"So am I!"
"So you do love him?"
"I'm not talking about this anymore!"
"He feels the same way, you know."
"No he doesn't..."
"Um, yeah, he does."
"How do you know?"
"He told me."
"What? When was this?"
"You're acting like you have no damn clue what I'm talking about. You know it's true so stop denying yourself of it."
"I know, okay? I know it's true it's just really confusing now that it's all out in the open like this."
"He loves you and you love him. What's confusing about that?"
"It's just that... no one's ever treated me as good as he does. I guess I'm just not used to someone wait who is willing to do everything and anything for me."
"Love never waits and it's never wrong. It just happens."
Sora smiled, "You're right. But when should I tell him? I don't want to freak him out."
"How about tomorrow night? I think that'll be the PERFECT time."
"Sounds great. Well, I guess I should get to bed now. I have three classes tomorrow. Ugh..."
"Yeah, I have two classes but they're not until later in the day."
"Lucky you."
"I know."
"Goodnight, Tai."
"Sweet dreams, Sor."
Sora walked upstairs and went into her bedroom. She took off her makeup and changed into something comfortable to sleep in. She zonked out as soon as her head hit the soft, goose-feather pillow.

Monday, March 3, 2004.
"So Sora, I was thinking... tonight, dinner at Shah Pier's? There's something that I want to ask you," Matt whispered so the teacher wouldn't hear him.
Sora's heart skipped a beat. 'Oh my gosh, could tonight be the night!?' She wondered to herself, "Of course! Sounds good!"
"Okay, good."

"Mr. Ishida and Miss Takenouchi! It's nice to see the two of you again!" Fenchinzo said greeting them with a smile when they walked into the restaurant.
"Fenchinzo, my man! Table for two, please!" Matt said with a smile and his hands on Sora's hips.
"Of course, of course! Right this way!"
The two sat at their table and ordered their food. Sora placed her napkin in her lap and rested her elbows on the table with her hands resting under her chin.
"So, Yamato, what is this BIG question you've been dying to ask me?" Sora asked out of curiosity, although she already had a good idea as to what it was.
Matt smiled and stood up from his seat and walked over to her. He got down on one knee and Sora freaked out. 'Oh my God! Don't tell me he's...'
"Sora... there's something I've been meaning to as you..." Matt started.
"Oh, man... this is it, isn't it?" Sora stuttered as he grabbed her hand.
"I know we haven't known each other very long, but I think it's time we took our relationship to the next level. You see, I've never cared for anyone as much as I care for you. You're very special to me and-" Matt stopped, "Sora, are you crying!?"
"No, I'm fine! Keep going..." Sora sniffed.
"Okay, well... I want you to be a bigger part of my life and so that's why I wanted to ask... Sora, will you be my... girlfriend?"
Sora looked at him with a serious, jaw-dropping face but then she began laughing in relief.
"Why are you laughing? I'm being serious," Matt said.
"No, no I'm not laughing at that. I'm laughing because I thought you were going to propose to me! It scared me for a second there I didn't know what to do!" Sora said still laughing.
"Propose? Whoa, it's a little too early in the relationship for that big of a step. But will you, be mine?"
"Mattie, what do you think?"
"Is that a "yes"?"
"Of course! I would love to be your girlfriend!"
"Oh, thank God."
"While we're on this subject there's something that I've been meaning to tell you too. Do you remember the first time we kissed?"
"Yes, of course I do."
"Well, when we kissed that first time I felt something. It was something I couldn't explain and personally, I was kind of scared by it. It was like a spark or something but I knew it had to of meant something special. I sat there and wondered what that feeling POSSIBLY could have been. It was as though-"
"Like you had butterflies in your stomach and no matter what you couldn't stop thinking about it and-"
"Exactly! And it's like I'm up at all hours of the night thinking about you and wishing you were there by my side. And throughout all this pondering I think I finally came to a conclusion-"
"As did I."
"Matt-"
"Sora-"
"I love you," they both said in unison and everyone in the restaurant began clapping and cheering. The two looked around and noticed that everyone was tuned into their conversation. Matt smiled as he touched his forehead to Sora's and gave her a small peck.
"That's so, so beautiful!" Their waitress said holding the couple's food, "I hope you enjoy your dinner!"
"Thank you..." Matt replied to her somewhat embarrassed at the situation.
"Here's to us," Sora laughed as she lifted her wine glass to him.
"To us," Matt replied and tapped his glass to hers.

~11:45 pm~
Sora was pressed up against her front door with Matt practically on top of her. She didn't even have a chance to get her keys out before they began a very heated make out session. The two were making a lot of noise and caused Tai to wake up from his deep sleep. (a/n: his bedroom is downstairs and right next to the front door)
"What the hell is that?" Tai asked himself as he cautiously got out of bed and walked over to his door. He poked his head out and made sure no one was in the living room. When he realized where the noise was coming from he looked out the peep hole and saw nothing but auburn colored hair. He opened the door and two figures fell into the house, landing at his feet.
"I woke up to see you two making out? Shit! I have to be to work in a couple hours so you guys need to be quiet so I can sleep!" Tai said rudely and walked back into his room, slamming the door.
"I like this position," Matt said noticing that he was laying on top of her.
"Me lying on the ground on the dirty hardwood floor isn't exactly a dream sex position of mine," Sora giggled getting up and pulling him up with her.
"Oh really? Well what IS your dream sex position?" Matt asked curiously as he placed his hands on her hips and stared into her eyes.
"Hmm... wouldn't you like to know?" Sora said seductively until she flicked his nose and laughed and ran away.
"Ow! Hey!" He laughed and chased after her.
Sora laughed harder as Matt began chasing her up the stairs and tackling her onto the bed. He tickled her sides until she started crying from laughing so hard.
"OKAY, OKAY! YOU WIN!" Sora said as he stopped.
"Is this a better position for you? There's no hardwood floors," Matt said as he laced his fingers through hers, "You're so adorable," He said as he looked into her ruby eyes.
"Awe, you really think so?"
"You know I do."
"Mattie..."
Matt leaned down and placed his lips on hers. She gratefully accepted his tongue into her mouth as things began heating up between the two of them. He started feelings around as he laid himself down and the kiss deepened. (a/n: you can imagine what happens next because this is pg-13 so I can't write any sex scenes lol)
Meanwhile downstairs Tai decided that he couldn't fall back asleep, there was too much noise coming from upstairs. He turned on the TV and watched the recent footage of the 5 o'clock news from that day.
"It's official! Prince Yamato Ishida IS, in fact, the newest boyfriend to ex supermodel, Sora Takenouchi! It's a match made in heaven!" The news reporter stated.
"He got down on one knee right here and asked her to be his girlfriend! It was the cutest thing I have ever seen! It was so beautiful! It is so obvious that those two care a lot for each other," a woman that just happened to be at the restaurant said.
"And there you have it! Sorry ladies, but it looks like this bachelor is taken and will be for a long time! And now to weather..."
Tai smiled and shook his head.
"Matt you are such a pussy..." Tai laughed to himself and then sighed, "They're finally together..." He mumbled and dozed off.
