Wow… this is a really complicated chapter… and I did not plan ahead at all OO. I just wrote as I went! I hope you all like it!

It was Friday. One day away from the big day. Tai woke up early. He sat on his bed thinking about what had happened.

"Am I really taking a girl?" He said out loud to himself. "I wanted it to be Matt so badly." He started crying softly. "I'm sorry Yama… but… you can never know… how much I love you." He finished crying and went to get ready.

Matt got up and almost did the same thing as Tai, only crying that Tai WAS going out with a woman. Matt got on his knees and prayed a small prayer.

"Please God… Don't let me lose Taichi… I love Tai so much…."

After crying and the prayer, he went and got ready for school.

Once at school, Matt and Izzy talked about the plan.

"Are you sure this will work?"

Izzy sighed. "Well, I think it is possible that it won't, but I find it highly illogical that Tai would deny his feelings. I would say the probability of things going right is.."

Matt covered his mouth. "Your making my head spin!"

Izzy giggled. "Sorry. I'm off to find Kit."

Tai and Kit were at lunch together talking.

Izzy had walky-talkies for himself, Kari and Davis. They were all in on the plan.

Izzy spoke quietly. "Alright, Operation TaiTo commencing, you ready Davis?"

Davis answered "I think so. I'm nervous."

Izzy flinched. "DON'T BE NERVIOUS!" then he calmed down again. "Act normal!"

"But… me? Normal?" Izzy was not a violent guy, but he wanted to punch something.

"BE YOURSELF!"

Davis walked up to Tai. Smiling as always, he hid his true thought of being nervous.

"Hey Tai!"

Tai smiled at the younger version of himself. Then he stood up and hugged him.

"I haven't seen you forever Davis! How are you?"

"Well… can I talk to you about something? …alone?"

Tai looked over at Kit. She smiled.

"I'll be fine Tai, go talk to your friend."

Tai nodded and walked away with Davis.

"Okay." Izzy said through the speaker. "I'm going in!"

Izzy walked slowly over to the table. He was nervous too.

"Hi." Izzy said to kit. "I know you know me, I'm one of Tai's best friends."

Kit's face brightened. "Oh! Are you Matt? Tai has not stopped talking about you!"

Izzy smiled.

"No, I am Izzy."

"Oh." she said. "Sorry."

"That's alright. I need your help with something…. Between you and me."

"…So… Me and Ken love each other."

Tai stood dumbfounded. How? When? Why?

Davis took this as disapproval.

"You hate me now don't you?"

Tai shook his head.

"NO! You just… surprised me… that's all."

Davis did a tackle hug. Then let go.

"Davis… I am too… I think… between you and me."

Davis tried his hardest to look surprised.

"Really? Wow… I guess I shouldn't have worried then! Who do you like?"

Tai looked nervous.

"Come on Tai, you can tell me. I won't tell anyone, I promise." And that was true. Kari HEARING this would be the one to tell.

"It's Matt."

Everyone with a speaker, except Davis couldn't help but smile.

"Good for you Tai. Does he know?"

Tai shook his head.

"No, and he never can. He doesn't think of me like that."

Davis looked sad. "Are you sure?"

"Sure enough that I don't want to ruin our friendship."

'Here I go' Davis thought to himself.

"Tai… I felt the same way about Ken. I did not want to ruin our friendship. But you have to tell him, you never know. Maybe behind his icy blue eyes he loves you back. Don't give up hope!"

Tai smiled.

"That sounds like something Kari would say."

Back at the tables, Kari was giggling

Izzy rubbed Kit's shoulder.

"So.." Kit said. "Matt is who he asked? And he only said no because he was afraid? But he really loves him?"

Izzy nodded.

"I know it's a lot to ask but…"

Kit shook her head.

"I want Tai to be happy. Even if its not with me. I will tell him I cant go."

Izzy smiled.

"Thank you."

Kit nodded with a smile. She really did love Tai. She wanted him to be happy, with the man of his dreams.

Davis and Tai finished their conversation and went to the cafeteria. Tai sat down with kit.

"Tai…" She said. "I… cant go to prom."

"Wh-why?"

"I… just can't. But still go and still have fun."

Kit stood up and left. Tai was left a little sad, but not a lot.

"Maybe there still is a chance…"
