Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon: Digital Monsters or summer camp. All I own is the camp counselor, Eishi, and the idea of whatever is inside Sora's notebook.
A/N: @_@ This is so unexpected. Seriously, I never expected to get more than five, or even ten reviews! Thanks and a big sorry for the long wait!! R&R o-negai!

Tell Me

"No--TAICHI! Stop! No, I didn't write anything bad about you! I promise!"

Ishida Yamato sighed, leaning against a tree. He watched Taichi and Sora argue with each other. "Oh, come on, Sora! If you didn't write anything bad about me, then why won't you let me see it?" Tai would ask. "Because... because I just don't want you to!" Sora would answer.

Yamato rolled his eyes. This was going to take forever.

"Wonder what Taichi and Sora are talking about," said Takeru, standing next to Yamato, who simply shrugged with indifference.

"Why are you always hiding something from us? Just let me have at least one short little peek... please?!?! O-negai, Sora-chan?" Taichi pouted, giving Sora one of his lovesick puppy-eyed expressions. The ruby-eyed girl groaned as if she had no other choice, but then, a furious Yamato stepped into the argument, not quite happy with the scene there.

Matt cleared his throat and glared at Sora. "Were you just about to show him that fat book of yours? 'Cause, you know, erm... I mean, um... well... GEEZ, SORA, IT'S NOT FAIR! I SAW IT FIRST!"

The rest of the DD's turned to look their way and sweatdropped. Sora raised an eyebrow. "Talk about maturity," she said sarcastically.

"I thought you didn't care about that thing," Taichi told Matt.

"Well... I, uh, I don't. It's just that it's not fair if she shows it to you instead of me," Yamato replied, grinning as if he just won fifty bucks. Tai knitted his eyebrows together, almost choking with laughter. "Why, she's my best friend," he said, matter-of-factly--as if he were the prime minister of Japan.

"Pfft, yeah, but she's my friend, too, you know," Matt argued, glaring at Tai. The brunette was very annoyed, but wouldn't let his fists interfere. "Let's just go," he finally declared. Mimi rolled her eyes at the two of them as she followed Taichi--Koushiro, Jyou, Takeru, Hikari, and Sora right behind her.

"Sora, wait," Yamato said--at the back of the line--holding Sora's wrist. Sora turned around to look at him. Ah... you gotta love eye contact, Matt thought, smiling at her. Sora was confused, of course, so she just smiled back. "Yes?"

Flashing his sweetest, most innocent, twenty-million dollar grin, he said, "I'll give you my two-month allowance!" Hey, I'm rich, anyway, he thought to himself.

Sora's face fell, released her hand from Yamato's wrist and just followed the rest of the DD's, ignoring him. Yamato was mad at himself for not being able to gain Sora's trust. "Hey, guys, wait up!" he shouted, running over to the group. His speed decreased as he found himself next to Sora. "Don't you trust me?" Matt asked.

Sora was getting really annoyed by him. "I trust you, Matt, but these are my personal stuff you're talking about."

"Oh, so you mean stuff like... who you secretly have a crush on?" Yamato inquired, both of them still walking behind the rest of the group, who were heading to the heart of the camp. Sora shot Yamato an angry glare, and once again ignored him.

"Have you ever made love?"

This stopped Sora from walking. Matt stopped walking too, confused at her reaction. "What kind of question is that?" Sora asked.

"Um. A question," Matt answered, not knowing what else to say. Truth is, he just wanted to ask her something that would grab her attention, but it seemed he had grabbed her attention & something beyond that.

But Sora had gotten the wrong idea. "You... you wanna have sex with me?"

Yamato's face flushed. "No! That's not what I meant! Ugh. Never mind."

Sora laughed at his face, and continued walking, Matt right beside her, who was muttering something under his breath.

Their counselor had met them on the way, his name was Mr. Eishi--he liked to be called by his first name. They finally arrived at the heart of the camp, where all the other groups and counselors united for each of their upcoming activities. As Eishi-sensei had announced, he and company were going rock climbing this day.

"Yeah!" Taichi yelled, balling his fist and throwing it up high, "I'm ready for anything!"

Sora put her hands on her hips. Yamato sighed, standing behind Sora, who was behind Hikari, who was behind Taichi, who was the first on line. Behind Matt was Mimi, followed by Takeru, then Jyou, and finally Koushiro, who was thinking about his next layout design on his website. Hmm... maybe Mimi or Sora can help me, he thought.

"Eishi-sensei, how long 'til we actually get there?" Tai asked. They've been walking ten minutes non-stop. "Aha!" the group counselor pointed to a nearby mountain, "There it is!"

"Finally! You make us walk too much!" Mimi shouted from the back of the line. "Gomen ne," Mr. Eishi apologized, heading to the mountain. "Alright, ladies and gentlemen, listen up," he instructed as he gave them a beginner's lesson on how to be safe while rock climbing. He told the eight DD's the rules, and if there was something wrong, to yell at him--as loud as they could. Mr. Eishi was going to be in front of everyone else, instructing them when to stop, when to go on, when to hold on, and when to go back.

"Everyone understood?"

"Yes, Eishi-sensei," the DD's said at the same time. Mr. Eishi nodded and gave each of them some necessary items. "Come on!" he yelled, motioning everyone to follow him. The eight kids watched as their counselor climbed up the mountain first.

Matt looked up at the mountain. It wasn't that high, for he had seen higher. But it was high enough anyway. Mr. Eishi was only four feet up when he yelled, "Okay, Taichi! Your turn!"

Tai smiled and nodded, "YEAH!"

Yamato shrugged. Show-off, he thought. He watched the brunette climb about nine feet up, two feet below the old man counselor. "Come on, Hikari!" Eishi shouted.

Hikari, being thirteen, was pretty good of a rock climber. She'd look up at her big brother, who would smile at her, encouraging her to go on and not to be scared. Then, it was Sora's turn. Matt watched the crimson-eyed girl walk over to the mountain, place both hands on a secure place, and do the same with her feet. Soon, she was six feet above the ground. Yamato gave himself a lopsided grin and began climbing as well. "Good! Good, very good, kids!" Mr. Eishi shouted, making sure Koushiro could hear.

So this Eishi-sensei would keep giving them instructions 24/7 about when to stop, hold on, keep going, or go back. Yamato wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead. He looked down and realized how high he had climbed. Who knew, maybe a hundred feet? Gawd, Eishi-sensei, you know you're responsible for these people, thought Matt, as he continued climbing. Looking up, he could see Sora having no trouble going up the mountain. She's a natural sport, Yamato told himself, smiling at the thought.

The gang stopped climbing for a while. Mr. Eishi glanced down, then up. "Come on, kids! A few more meters and we're there!" he yelled down. Taichi took a deep breath, and kept climbing until he came step-to-step with the counselor. "So how we gonna get down?" he asked, looking below.

"By climbing back down, of course," the counselor responded. Panting, Taichi closed his eyes and shook his head. "Don't tell me," he said. Mr. Eishi looked confused. "But I just did."

Taichi ignored the old man and encouraged Hikari to move on. "Come on, Hikari!"

"Onii-chan (big brother), don't tell me we have to climb all the way down again!" Hikari shouted, using her last bit of strength to get to the top with Mr. Eishi and her brother. Taichi smiled, not answering--hey, she told him not to tell!

Soon, all the DD's were up there. The ones who had the most trouble getting up were Mimi and Jyou. Can you say, like, duh?

"Hel-lo! I am not climbing back down!" Mimi yelled at the counselor. Mr. Eishi grinned. "Well, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here for the rest of the night."

Mimi groaned. "You people are so cruel, but then again, so be it."

"No," Koushiro looked up at the brunette. "You're not staying here all by yourself, are you?"

"Well... I've lost all my strength to go back down," Mimi answered. Jyou nodded in agreement. "I... I can't... no more... climb...ing," he said through a lot of panting. Yamato, who was sitting down, crossed his legs and looked up at the baby blue sky, grinning like an idiot. Pushing a strand of golden hair behind his ear, he imagined and began to realize the beauty of the clouds all crowded around the sky. "It's almost as beautiful as Sora," he muttered.

"Nani? (Huh?)" Sora asked, turning to the blond. "Did you say my name?"

Yamato looked at Sora, then back at the sky, then at Sora again. "Um... yeah. I said that if I'd have my own diary, I'd call it Sora."

"Ah," said the auburn haired girl, "um... that's nice. But why?"

"Well, of course! I totally trust you," Yamato answered. Sora blushed for a moment and looked down, but when she looked back up at Matt, she saw his million-dollar grin on his face--the one you couldn't trust.

"This has to do with my notebook, doesn't it?" Sora asked, standing up. Matt looked up at her, his smile fading. "Um... well... yeah," he said, "Don't you... trust me?"

"Not that fat book again!" Taichi yelled, standing next to Sora.

"Mind your own," Yamato argued.

"You should both mind your own!" Mimi shouted, standing up as well.

"Oh, yeah?" Yamato challenged, getting up next to Sora.

"YEAH!" Both Mimi and Taichi shouted at the same time. They looked at each other, frowning, as Eishi, Yamato, Takeru, Hikari, Jyou, and Koushiro sweatdropped.

"Well, at least you managed to climb back down," Sora told Mimi, smiling.

"With a lot of complains," added Koushiro.

"And help," finished Takeru.

Lights were out, night had taken over. Everyone was back in their sleeping bags. It was rare, these cabins--one would usually sleep on bunk beds at a summer camp.

Turning to Yamato, whose eyes were about to droop, Sora tapped the floor to get his attention. He did so, and watched her lips as she mouthed the words, I do trust you.
