Hello all! I love you all just so you know! . I hope this continues to be well… let me know!
Tai slowly made his way through the cafeteria.
'I don't know why I'm doing this', he thought. 'He's definitely still mad at me. But what DID I do?'
As he got closer, he saw Izzy and Joe nod at each other and they got up and left.
'That figures.' Tai thought. 'The two brains decided to get out from the line of fire!'
He finally reached the table where Matt sat. He sat down across from him.
"Hey Matt… I'm sorry about…"
"No Tai."
"No? Your not accepting my apology?"
"No no… There is no reason for you to apologize. I am sorry."
Tai's jaw dropped. In the 6 years he had known him, Matt had NEVER apologized.
"Hey its okay Matt, I forgive you."
Matt smiled.
"Really?"
"Of course."
Matt kept smiling… he had to take Izzy's advice.
"So Tai," Matt said slowly, "What were you saying before?"
"Well about the prom and our money situation and the fact we don't have dates…" Tai paused to make sure he didn't accidentally piss off his friend once again. "….I kind of had a thought…" Tai looked very nervous, hoping that Kari's plain would work. He took a deep breath and then he spoke again. "…maybe…. me and you… could… go together… as friends to get cheaper tickets."
Matt was speechless. 'Did Tai just… ASK ME TO PROM?... No, just as FRIENDS… calm down.'
Matt didn't know what to do, so he stood up. Tai looked in his eyes. He expected to see, anger and hate. But neither of those emotions were there. He was scared. Scared? Why?
"I gotta go Tai. I'll talk to you later."
And he was gone.

Matt went to the computer lab to find Izzy. ….He found him alright. He walked in just in time to see Joe and Izzy making out with each other. They saw Matt and stopped. Joe looked completely embarrassed and ran out of the room. As emotional as Matt was at the moment he couldn't help but laugh.
"So THIS is where all the action is?"
Izzy blushed and brushed off the subject.
"How did it go?"
"Well… he…. AS FRIENDS…. Asked me to prom."
Izzy smiled widely.
"TAI ASKED YOU TO PROM!"
"AS FRIENDS!"
"Are you sure?"
"YES! That is what he said!"
"What happened then?"
"I… ran away."
Izzy looked disappointed, but walked over to Matt and put his arm around him.
"Listen matt… I know this is hard for you, but you need to go back and tell him you'll go."
Matt nodded.
"I know. I'm just… scared."
"I know you are. But don't be. Go get him."
But just then the bell rang and they had to go to there different classes.
"Well, I guess I'll have to wait."
Izzy nodded slightly and let Matt go.
Joe came back into see Izzy.
"How is it going Izzy?"
"Well, as far as getting them together, it looks bad, but at far as Kari's master plain, it is going great."
"I sure hope this works."
"It will. Trust me. They love each other, they both know it. All they need to know now is the other one loves them back…"
