Chp. 16- Confessions
"We need a plan. Kyoji's gang keeps attacking us. And I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting rather tired of dealing with them." Said Takeru.
"I agree. But what to do? Hmmmm." Thought Taichi.
"How about a good ol' fashion face off." Takeru Suggested.
"I like the sound of that." Pondered Yamato.
"Ok. So when do you want this to happen?" asked Taichi.
"Let's just lie low for a few days." Stated Yamato.
"Yea. They'll never expect an attack." Said Takeru.
"So we got a plan?" asked Taichi.
"We got a plan." Said Yamato.
"So...Now that we got that out of the way....Where are the girls?" asked Taichi.
"They went to drop of Sora." Replied Takeru.
"Why can't we just ditch that girl. She's been nothing, but trouble." Said Taichi.
"We've been through this before, Tai." groaned Yamato.
"And like before, you're defending her! See I told you, you have a thing for her. And don't try to cover up this time....I see the way you look at her. It's the same look you used to give Arisa." Taichi stated
"Shut up Taichi." Yamato snapped.
"Come on. Admit you love her. Or at least like her." Bothered Taichi.
"Admit it bud. You got feelings for the girl!"
"FINE! I HAVE FEELINGS FOR HER. JEEZE. CAN YOU GET OFF MY BACK NOW!?" confessedYamato.
"That's all I needed to hear." Grinned Taichi.
Yamato got up from the couch he was lounging on.
"Where are you going bud?" asked Taichi.
"Out!" growled Yamato.
With that said, Yamato stormed out of the room.
Sora's House
Sora had been thinking it over and over. She loved everyone in the gang so, they felt like a family to her. But what about her real family? What about school work? It was Sunday early noon. Mimi and the other girls had just given her a ride home a few minutes ago. She knew her parents were probably wondering why she didn't come home last night.
She opened the font door to find her father standing there with a stern expression on his face.
"Where have you been all night, young lady?" he asked
"Since when have you cared?" Sora retorted
"Watch you tongue! No need to tell me, I already know."
"What are you talking about?"
"What the hell are you doing, hanging out with troublesome gang members, is what I'm talking about!"
Sora stiffened. 'How did he find out?'
"Who told you?' she asked in a dangerously low voice.
"Don't worry about who told me! They'll ruin you! Have you even done any of your lessons and homework? You have a reputation to keep. Do not dishonor the Takenouchi name by befriending gang members!"
"Just be quiet! I'm sick of being perfect! I want to be myself! All my life I have been living a life you've planned for me. Not mine. I'm just sick of it. I just want to be a normal teenager and have a normal life with mistakes. And who cares about dishonoring the Takenouchi name...Its just a stupid name" Sora yelled
Her father slapped her causing her to wince as tears started to well up.
"Don't be stupid. You should have stayed friends with Hotaru. She's such a nice girl. She's much better than those trouble makers."
Sora glared at her father as she turned and made her way back out the front door.
"Oh and Sora?" her father asked.
Sora stopped and didn't bother turning around. "Yes?"
"I forbid you to talk or associate yourself with those trashy people."
"Those 'trashy people' as you like to call them have been there for me when I needed them most. They're like family to me. And they gave me a new way of looking at life. Which is more than I can say for my own father."
With that said, Sora ran out of the house. No one tried to stop her. After running a few blocks she stopped. Her eyes burned, she tried not to cry, but it was no use. The tears flowed freely. She just wanted to be alone. She decided to walk to the school. Even though the school was not in session on Sundays, it was open.
Once she got there, she walked up to the roof of the school to think.
School Roof
After that talk with Taichi and his brother, Yamato he had to make some decisions about Sora. He needed to contemplate what feelings he really had for her. He was sitting on the ground, leaning on the concrete wall. He came to the school to find a place to think. The roof was quiet and it had a peaceful scene of the city.
Flashback
Sora struggled to get free, but it was no use. The man holding her hit her over her head with something. She let out a yelp and fell unconscious to the ground.
"You really shouldn't have done that!" Yamato growled, as his anger became his strength. His strength over took both of the men. He threw them both off. He pulled out his gun and shot them in the gut until he ran out of bullets.
He turned slowly to the man who knocked Sora out. As the man saw the anger in Yamato's eyes, he ran to the fire escape and went down as if his life depended on it. Which it did.
Yamato walked over to Sora and he gently lifted her up to him. She had blood dripping down her temple, but she was still holding the gun Yamato had given her. He brushed her cheek with his fingers.
End of Flashback
Yamato remembered his anger and rage when that enemy gang member knocked Sora unconscious.
But before he could think of anything else, he suddenly heard someone opening the door to the roof.
'What now?' he thought.
Before he could react, Sora appeared with a confused look when she saw Yamato sitting on the ground.
"Yamato?" she asked.
"Yea....It's me."
She sighed and plopped down on the ground near him and pulled here knees to her chest to rest her chin on them.
"Why are you here?" Yamato asked.
"To think. Don't worry, I'll be quiet."
"You came to think too?"
She nodded a response
Yamato looked up at the sky and then back Sora. Her crimson eyes had a sad look in them as they stared at the ground.
"Come here." He said softly.
Sora looked up at him questionably, but she did as he said. She stood and walked to him.
"Sit down." he said.
She obeyed.
Suddenly out of nowhere he grabbed her sides and pulled her down into his lap. At first she was tense was shock, but then relaxed a bit and leaned back into him.
"Why are you sad?" he asked as he wrapped his arms around her middle and leaned his head on top of hers.
"Problems with my father. And I'm worried about you and the others. That other gang keeps attacking you and I'm just afraid that you or one of the others might get hurt or even die. I don't want to lose you." She whimpered.
"Shhh. It's going to be ok."
"Can you just hold me please?" she replied as she closed her eyes.
"Of course."
Yamato could see that she was suffering and he felt terrible. It was all his fault and he knew it. If he hadn't gotten her involved, she wouldn't be in this sad estate right now.
He took a long look at her. He noticed that her hands were trembling and tears were silently falling down her cheeks. He took her hand and kissed it gently. She slowly opened her eyes and she looked at their now entwined hands.
"I'm sorry....It's all my fault. It's my fault that you're involved in this gang war." he whispered as he kissed away the tears from her cheeks.
She looked up at him, surprised by his actions.
" Don't cry anymore. I don't like it when you're sad....Please don't worry about me, because whatever happens, I'll always be with you here." He whispered again, placing their hands over her heart.
Her eyes widened.
"What? Why are you saying all this?" she said in disbelief.
'It's now or never Ishida.' Yamato thought to himself.
"Because I don't know what's going to happen these days. Just incase I don't make it back one day....I wanted to let you know that I...I love you." He said softly as he tightened his embrace around her middle.
Sora was speechless at first, but soon recovered from her shock.
"Yamato?" She said as she starred into his cerulean orbs.
"Yes?" He leaned his head towards hers and she did likewise.
"I love you too." She said as they closed their eyes and their lips meet in a soft and gentle kiss.
