Yay, another update. In the same day. I'm so proud of myself.

Taichi's Point of view

Stupid Yamato. Why doesn't he just say that he loves me? It's clearly obvious that he does. I know he wants to tell me, but until he's comfortable with the idea of dating I'm not going to have anything to do with him. He's going to have to show me that he loves me. He was just too cruel with that whole box thing and I won't forgive him unless he can prove himself.

So, this means he's going to have to do something stupid. If he really does care for me he'll do anything, but if he doesn't then I guess I'll just have to move on. There's other people out there that are willing to date me. They aren't the right people, but still.

"Taichi, the phone is for you," My mother yells.

I pick up the phone in my room and yell, "I got it," to my mother.

"Hello," I then say to the phone.

"Hi Taichi," Sora says from the phone.

Ugh, I don't want to talk to her right now. Why couldn't it have been anyone else? Like Koushiro, Daisuke, or Daisuke's boy toy. Oh right, they're all out in my living room watching movies. Damn them.

Hmm. . .perhaps I'll join them after this phone call. I think Taichi has had enough moping for one day. Besides, a good movie will help calm my nerves and forget about Yamato. Maybe I can convince the others to watch Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with me. I love that movie. I know Dai won't protest, but the others I'm a little worried about.

Mini Yamato won't vote for it just because he's evil. Hikari probably won't vote for it either because she hates me. It's all up to Daisuke's boyfriend and Koushiro. I'm not to sure about this Ken fellow. He seems like a shifty guy. So, that's two to maybe three. Koushiro will vote for my side because he's my best friend and just would. That means. . .damn, it's tied. It can't be tied. That's just not how it works.

Okay, I got it. From now on I count as two people. There now it's four against three. I win and get to watch my movie.

"Taichi, are you even listening to me?" Sora asks.

"What? Oh, sorry. I was thinking about some things," I say.

"What happened?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, for you to be thinking about things something must have happened. Want to tell me about it?"

"Well, it was a close game, but in the end I won," I say.

"Did you have a game today?"

"No. It was a battle inside my head. I decided that I was two people then. So, I won."

"Um. . . Taichi, should I be concerned?"

"No. Why?"

"Because you're being really weird. Did you have a bad day?"

"Yeah, Yamato came over and we got into this battle. Or more like he couldn't admit to things and. . .why am I telling you that? Forget what I said."

"I didn't know you and Yamato were friends," she says excitedly.

"We're not, really. He just came over to remind me that we have physics homework. Yeah, that's it."

"I don't believe you, Tai. However, since you'll never admit to anything either I'm not going to pressure it out of you. I don't really care why Yamato was at your house. I better go," she says.

"Didn't you call for something?"

"Oh. . .yeah. Um. . .well, I was going to ask you to the dance. I change my mind though, because you'll probably want to go with someone else. I'll just ask someone else to go."

"What about Koushiro?"

"Didn't you hear? He already has a date. Miyako tried to ask him out yesterday, but he already said he was going with someone. He wouldn't say who though."

"Maybe he just didn't want to go with Miyako. I don't blame him."

"He's not mean, Tai. Anyway, I'll probably ask Bob. He's nice and he really seems to like me."

"That's good. Maybe you two should go out too."

"Maybe," she says, "Listen Taichi, I'm totally over you. Don't worry about it."

"Then why'd you want to ask me to the dance?"

"As a friend and nothing more. I just thought it would be better then having you mope around your house like you're probably doing right now. It seems your heart has been broken. I won't ask though because you aren't going to tell me, but sometimes I can't help but believe the rumors that I'm hearing."

"What rumors?"

"That while you were away for the summer you met a hot girl who totally crushed you."

"Well, that's not far from the truth."

"A hot boy then?"

"What?"

"Oh come on Taichi. Do you not notice those looks Yamato gives you? I can also tell that you two know each other from somewhere. You're far too familiar with him. I don't care if you're gay Taichi. It's just that I don't want to see you hurt and what you're doing is hurting you. I don't know what went on over the summer, but I can tell that Yamato really likes you. He probably moved here so he could be closer to you. Why do you have to ignore him all the time. He probably feels like crap."

"Listen, you don't know anything. Yamato may like me a lot, but I'm not going to go out with him until he's ready to admit that. He's just being weird."

"And you're being stubborn."

"I don't care. Can we talk about something else?"

"Fine. Want to come with me on Friday to the band auditions?"

"Sure. I've got nothing better to do and I want to make sure they pick a good band. I don't want someone horrible to be playing at the dance."

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow at school. Bye."

She hangs up before I can even say goodbye back.

I think she's up to something.

Yamato's point of view. The next day, Wednesday.

"So, Yamato, you have to come shopping with me after school today. I need to pick out a dress for the dance next week. I can't believe I've already been asked. Isn't that just great. Do you think you and Taichi are going to go together or haven't you talked to him yet about getting together. You know I'm thinking something pink to wear because it's my favorite color, but do you think that I should try something different. How about blue, or green, or purple, or. . . you should maybe buy something to wear at the dance too. You are definitely coming. I don't care what you say about dances being stupid and. . .don't give me that look. I still can't believe you told Sora that you and your band would try out. You don't even have a band Yamato. Anyway, you should maybe go with something blue to match your eyes. Or you should go in something brown to match Taichi's, but brown is a really ugly color and. . ."

And that's where I stop listening. I'm actually surprised I listened to so much. Most of it was just nonsense. I honestly don't care what color dress she's going to be wearing. I also don't care what color I'm going to be wearing. I'm not going to the stupid dance. Also, what is it with her and talking about Taichi and I like we're a couple. We aren't. Yet, anyway.

I stab a fork at my ravioli and flinch at the inch of skin the food had developed from the sauce. How can people eat this stuff. It's atrocious.

"Hi, can I sit here?"

Darn, I thought I got rid of that girl when I let that sex thing slip out.

"I'm pretty sure someone is sitting there. No, I'm really sure someone is sitting there," I say.

"No one is sitting there Sora. Go ahead," Mimi says. I send a glare at her, but my glares don't affect her anymore. I'm not sure if they ever did.

Sora sits down next to me. Why did it have to be next to me? There's four other places she could have sat. Why next to me?

"You just sat on my best friend. Just so you know," I say. She just ignores me.

"So, are you going to the dance Mimi."

"Of course, I've already been asked by so many people too. But I decided on the best."

"Oh really. I haven't been asked by anyone yet."

"That's because you're annoying," I mumble a little too loud and a little too understandable.

"Don't mind him. He's just mad because Taichi won't go out with him."

"Mimi!"

"Don't worry I already know about you and Taichi," Sora says.

"You do? Did he tell you?" I ask.

"Well, I sort of figured it out on my own. Plus, Koushiro told me and then Taichi gave it away over the phone yesterday."

"Did he tell you why he won't go out with me? Is it my hair? Am I too fat? Too thin? Does my breath smell? Do I smell?" I give myself a sniff just to make sure.

"It's not like he doesn't want to go out with you. He just wants you to be able to admit that you like him," Sora says.

"Well, it seems I can talk about it just fine with you guys. Why the hell can't I tell him?"

"I've got an idea. Do you want some help?" Sora asks.

Should I take her help? She is Taichi's best friend and would know a lot about him. Then again she is also someone who wants to date Taichi. I don't know if she can be trusted.

Well, nothing still is happening between those two guys. I promise the next chapter will have lots of good Taichi and Yama moments.
