Taichi, Yamato and all of the characters from Digimon belong to someone who is not myself. I try to claim them, but I cannot, and I must say... I am not talented enough to create something so lovely and entertaining as Digimon.
A/N: Okay everybody! Welcome to chapter 6. I would just like to say, I'm a little indifferent about this chapter. I like some parts, but not others...There are warnings, too. They are the following: Future Yamachi shounen-ai/yaoi/whatever you want to call it. Major OCCness, but that's why it's an AU! Also if I get a flame complaining about the 'gayness' of the story, I will whack that person upside the head. So if that makes you uncomfortable, please leave now or face the scary wackiness of my hand! Thanks for reading y'all, and thanks for reviewing. I like responding to reviews. It's very fun. And so, I will do it now!
jenn120: I'm glad you think it's awesome. That chapter is one of my favorites, after chapter 4 and all it's fluffiness. Do you like sno-cones? What flavor is you favorite?

And now, after multiple paragraphs of thank yous, on with the fic!
Lunch came around and Taichi was found playing soccer again. Yamato was sitting under a tree, trying to look indifferent, but his eyes continued to stare at the brown-haired boy playing.
"You know you're completely obvious, right?" a female voice laughed above him.
Yamato looked up to see Mimi standing over him, hair in a low ponytail, wearing a pair of khaki capri pants, a blue t-shirt with a picture of a lily on it and white sneakers. "What do you want, Mimi?" he asked.
"Don't get all anal at me." She sat down and smirked at the soccer field. "Seems like that new boy is a wonder on the field."
"I guess."
"Jiro seems to think so."
This statement gained Yamato's attention as he shifted his eyes towards the girl. "What do you mean?"
"Well it's not cemented, but Jiro is already talking about asking Taichi out on a date." She barely held in a giggle as Yamato's eyes narrowed at the boy who had just slapped Taichi on the ass.
"Whatever." Yamato said, getting up.
"Where are you going?"
"Somewhere." He walked off. As soon as he left, Mimi giggled and stood up as well.
"Oh Yamato, you're so obvious. Just ask him out or someone else might." She walked away as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The end of school came soon and Taichi was walking out of the classroom when he heard Miss Sato call him back.
"Yes?" Taichi asked.
"I think you might need a tutor, Mr. Kamiya."
This shocked and confused Taichi. "Why?"
"Call it teacher's intuition, but I sense you may have problems." She searched through his desk until she pulled out piece of paper. "Give him a call. I've heard great things of this one."
Taichi nodded and bowed. "Thank you Miss Sato." He walked out, looking at the number on the paper. "Great. I hope this isn't like my last tutor…" He sweat dropped, recalling his last tutor.
Flashback
"Do you understand now, Chi?" a girl with way too much makeup on asked, pushing against the poor boy.
"Um, you haven't explained anything yet, Mai."
"Let me rephrase this. Do you understand now?" she pushed harder, fluttering her eyelashes and purred.
End flashback
Lets just say that ended not too pretty. She ran out, screaming, and Taichi was left confused.
'Great…'
'What?'
'Crap! You're back?'
'Dumbass, I can't leave. I'm your conscience.'
'Still…'
'Don't argue with me.'
'Yes mother.'
Taichi smirked at the voice in his head growled at him.
"What are you smiling about, Taichi?" a female voice asked.
Taichi looked up to see the same pink-haired girl from before. He frowned, remembering her 'flirting'. "Nothing."
"Don't worry. Me and Yamato are not dating."
"Why would I care?"
The girl laughed. "You both are idiots sometimes."
Taichi pouted. "I don't know you and you're calling me an idiot?"
"Sorry. I'm Mimi Tachikawa. Nice to meet you." She bowed.
"Hello, I'm Taichi Kamiya. Nice to meet you too." He bowed.
Mimi laughed. "I already know you."
"Huh?"
"One of the best soccer players we've had in a while."
Taichi blushed. "I'm not that good."
Mimi shook her head, smiling. "Modest. Nice attribute. If I didn't like someone, I might just date you."
Taichi blushed again. "Who do you like?"
This time Mimi blushed. "Um, you probably don't know him."
"Try me."
"He's crazy smart, but not annoying smart. He's really sweet and really cute." Mimi blushed, thinking about the 'mystery guy.'
"What's his name?"
Mimi opened her mouth to answer when a cell phone went off, causing both teens to jump.
Mimi looked down and smiled. "Sorry. Phone call. I gotta go. I'll talk to you later!" She waved as she ran off, talking on the phone.
Taichi waved, smiling. "Bye."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sitting at home, Taichi was glaring at his math homework, willing it to solve itself. Finally realizing it wasn't going to happen, Taichi stood up and stretched.
A piece of paper fell to the ground. Taichi looked at it, confused, then remembered.
"This is supposed to be a really smart person. Hm…I might as well call. I can't do this myself as I gracefully showed last night."
Walking over to the phone, Taichi dialed the number and waited.
"Hello, Izumi residence. Koushiro Izumi speaking." a dignified voice answered politely.
Taichi took a deep breath and continued. "Hello, my name is Taichi Kamiya and Miss Sato gave me your number to tutor me."
The voice became carefree. "Hi, Taichi. Sure I'll tutor you. What time?"
"Um, are you busy right now?"
A pause and, "Not right now. Are you at school?"
"No. I'm at my apartment, but I can get to the school."
"No, it's fine. Where do you live?"
Taichi gave him the address. "Oh, that's closer to my home than school is. I'll be there in five minutes."
Taichi smiled. "Thank you Koushiro."
He hung up and looked at the apartment. He sweat dropped, seeing it was a little dirty again. "I better clean this up before he gets here." Taichi began to clean.
The doorbell rang five minutes later and Taichi ran to the door and opened to reveal a boy his age with red hair and was dressed in a white t-shirt with black pants.
"Taichi?"
Taichi nodded and let him in. "My homework is right there."
Koushiro nodded and walked right towards the homework. "So what don't you understand?" he asked.
Taichi sweat dropped. "Everything."
Koushiro smiled. "Well lets start with the basics then."
Taichi nodded and sat down.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The clock struck nine and the boys looked up. Koushiro looked at his watch and smiled. "Well, I gotta go. I still have my homework to do."
Taichi blushed. "Sorry about taking you away from it."
"It's fine. I like helping people."
Taichi nodded and walked him to the door. "Thank you for helping me. Same time tomorrow?"
"Why don't we do it after school?"
"I have soccer practice." Taichi looked down.
Koushiro nodded. "I actually have a meeting tomorrow. So how about we go to my apartment tomorrow?"
"Sure. Your parents don't mind?"
"No. They always say I need more friends…" Koushiro looked downward.
Taichi frowned and did the only thing he could think of. He hugged him.
Saying Koushiro was shocked is putting it lightly. When Taichi stepped back, he asked. "What was that for?"
"Well you looked sad and hugs make people happy, so I hugged you." Taichi said plainly, smiling.
Koushiro smiled. "Makes sense to me." He grabbed his bag and stopped at the door. "Thank you Taichi."
"You're welcome." Taichi waved as Koushiro walked out and shut the door.
Yawning, Taichi got ready for bed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, Taichi entered the classroom. He smiled at Mimi, Sora and Koushiro. He took his seat and noticed Yamato staring at him.
"Yes?" Taichi asked, grinning.
"How do you know Sora and Koushiro?"
"Sora introduced herself to me the first day and Koushiro is tutoring me."
Yamato nodded and looked back at the front.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bell rang and Taichi walked over to Koushiro and smiled. "See you later today?"
Koushiro nodded and smiled. "Sure." He stood up and walked out, feeling a glare at his back.
Taichi looked to see Mimi blushing. Some people might think Taichi is quite naïve, but he gets things like love.
He sat down next to her and smiled. "So it's Koushiro?"
Mimi turned to him, blushing redder. "What?" she stammered.
"You like him." he stated.
Mimi turned away and grabbed her stuff. "I gotta go. See you later Taichi." She left and Taichi smiled.
'So it is Koushiro. How adorable!' he thought.
'You might want to pay attention to the brooding blond behind you.'
Taichi was about to snapped back in his mind when Yamato appeared next to him. Taichi jumped.
"Geez Yamato, don't do that!" Taichi gasped.
Yamato kept his face on. "What do you mean, you'll see him tonight?"
Taichi was confused for a moment, then a light bulb went on. "Oh! Do you mean Koushiro? He's helping me tonight."
Yamato continued staring at the boy, then stood up. "All right." He walked out, leaving a confused Taichi behind.
"What's his problem?"
"He's jealous." a female voice behind him spoke up.
Taichi jumped once again and turned to see Sora behind him, wearing a knee-length skirt, a long-sleeved shirt and boots.
"What do you mean, he's jealous?"
"He's jealous that Koushiro gets to spend so much time with you."
Remembered what I said before? About Taichi understanding about love? Well, let me rephrase that. He's understanding about other people's love, but never his own. So this is why he looked completely confused.
"Why would he be?"
Sora laughed. "You're so cute, Taichi! Remember we're going to hang out tomorrow?"
Taichi nodded. "I remember."
"See ya!" Sora walked off.
Taichi sat, remembering the last four people he talked to and sweat dropped. 'I have some weird friends...' he thought, walking out.
'You're pretty weird yourself.' the voice came back.
For some reason, that seemed like a weird cut-off place. Oh well. I put a jealous Yamato in there! Ya! And poor confused, naïve Taichi. And ya for Mimi and Koushiro! What about Sora? Will she get anyone? We'll see! I hope you liked some part of it. If you did, please tell me, and if you didn't also please tell me. (That was some not so subtle begging for reviews. ;))
