I'm broke. I'm artistically challenged. Do you really think suing me would get you anything? The only things having to do with these characters that I own is this story.

I'm on a roll! I can't help it! I woke up this morning and was like 'I need to write!' Inspiration hit and I'm taking it cuz as soon as it leaves I'm going to be in a stump and then people will be yelling at me and telling me to update and I'll cry and it'll just all end bad. So if I don't respond to your review, I'll do it in the next one. But warnings first...

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! If you don't like, don't read, and really, you should already be gone by now. Now! It is time to thank the reviewers! Oo

jenn120: Much and Many great thanks to you! I'm glad you liked this chapter. Thank you for reading and for your review, I have a gallon sized tub of your favorite flavor gourmet ice cream. ;) Keep reading, and keep reviewing. Thankies! Thankies!

Slushie Blu: I love sno-cones too. Except it's winter and it's cold, so not at this moment…But in some places it's hot! So take that coldness! Sorry, I warned you in the last chapter my mind is scary at times! Jealous Yamato might make a return and Naïve Taichi will definitely make a return, Thanks o much for this review. You get a gallon of your favorite flavor gourmet ice cream as well!

DarkMetalAngel of Destruction: Of course everyone wants to take Taichi away from him. I want to take Taichi away from him, but when I went towards him, Yamato growled at me and I ran away, scared. XP! I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for the review. Here is your gallon of ffgic (favorite flavor gourmet ice cream!).

JyouraKoumi: Don't worry, Mimi isn't going to wear pink that much in this fic. Blue is actually my favorite color, so I jus wrote what I have in my closet. Hope you enjoy this chapter (it's basically Koushiro and Taichi, but still…) Thanks for reviewing and here is your gallon of ffgic (see above for translation). Enjoy.

And now, after the author's notes and reviewer thanks, I will continue! Thanks for baring with me. On with chapter seven!

"Bye guys!" Taichi waved as he ran towards the locker room to change before meeting Koushiro.

"Wait up Tai!" Jiro called, running up to the boy.

Taichi stopped and waited for the boy to catch up to him. "What are you doing right now?"

"Going over to Koushiro's."

Jiro's eyes darkened. "Why?"

"Cuz he's tutoring me."

Jiro's eyes lightened. "Is that all? Well, are you busy tomorrow?"

"Yeah. I'm hanging out with Sora."

"Are you busy the next day?" Jiro sounded irritated.

"Um, no."

"Good. We'll hang out. See you later, Tai!" Jiro ran off, leaving Taichi to stare at him.

"That was weird."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Are you hungry?" Koushiro asked as they entered his apartment.

Taichi nodded enthusiastically. "What do you have?"

Koushiro couldn't help but laugh at this boy's enthusiasm. "What do you want?"

Taichi thought about it for a moment, then grinned. "Do you have any pizza?"

Koushiro thought about it for a moment, then walked to the freezer. "Frozen. Is that fine?"

Taichi nodded. "That's fine."

Koushiro nodded and put it in the oven. As soon as the pizza was cooking, he grabbed two sodas and the two boys walked to the table where they had left their bags.

"The pizza will be ready in twenty minutes. We can start."

Taichi nodded and they sat down and began to work. When the buzzer went off, Koushiro took it out and sliced it into six pieces. "How many do you want?"

"Three."

"Okay." He put three slices on a plate and two on another and walked to the table.

"Thanks." Taichi grinned as he began to eat.

Half an hour later, Taichi let his head fall and hit the table. Koushiro gave him a small smile and rubbed his back. "You'll get it eventually."

Taichi sighed. "No I won't. I just don't get math." He lifted his head up and smiled at Koushiro. "It's not your teaching. Your teaching is fine. I'm just dumb."

This angered Koushiro for some reason. "Don't call yourself dumb, Taichi!" he exclaimed, shocking the poor boy.

"Why? I am."

Koushiro frowned. "No you're not. Some people get it faster than others. Don't give up and don't call yourself dumb. If you do, I won't tutor you anymore."

Taichi smiled. "No reason Mimi likes you…" Then he slapped a hand over his mouth, eyes widening.

Koushiro stared at him, eyes wide as well. "Mimi likes me?" he asked in a hopeful tone.

'Crap! Mimi's going to kill me!'

'That's for sure.'

'Why do you come at the worst moments?'

'Cuz that's what I do. Now what are you going to do about your huge mouth?'

'I don't know…' Taichi moaned out loud and looked at Koushiro, who was still waiting for an answers.

'Please don't kill me, Mimi.' he begged silently, then looked at Koushiro and nodded slowly. "Yeah she does. But don't tell her I told you. She'd kill me."

They sat in silence until Taichi finally broke it by standing up. "So what are you going to do about it?"

"About what?"

"Mimi. I know you like her, too."

Taichi grinned as Koushiro went red. "I do not…" he murmured.

"Then why are you as red as your hair?" Taichi laughed as Koushiro became more red. "So what are you going to do about it?" he repeated.

"I don't know. I might just keep silent about it."

Taichi frowned. "No you're not, cuz I'll tell her if you don't."

"You wouldn't…" But one look at Taichi's face told Koushiro that he would. Sighing, Koushiro nodded. "Fine, but what can I do? She's so popular and I'm so…not."

Taichi frowned once again. "That doesn't matter. Tell her."

"Sure. I'll go up and say 'Hey Mimi, guess what? I've had a crush on you since we were in middle school?' Yeah, that'll work really well…" Koushiro sarcastically said as he began to clean.

"Good point. Hm…do something for Christmas."

"Taichi, Christmas is three months away. I can't keep it silent that long."

"You kept it silent all these years." Taichi pointed out.

Sighing, Koushiro agreed with him. "So what should I do for Christmas?"

Taichi opened his mouth when an idea came to him. "Wait!"

"What?"

"Isn't the 'Welcome Back' dance next week?"

Koushiro nodded, not getting his drift. Taichi sighed. "Ask her to that."

Koushiro's eyes bulged. "What? That's way too soon! What about the Christmas plan?"

"Too far away. Come on, ask her to the dance."

"If you ask Yamato."

This made Taichi choke on his soda. "If I ask who?"

It was Koushiro's turn to smirk. "It's obvious you like him. And he likes you."

"What makes you say that?"

"Well, one, he talks to you first of all…"

"So? He talks to Mimi."

"Good point. Still, he's known Mimi since they were in diapers."

Taichi nodded and waited for Koushiro to go on.

"Second, he glares at everyone and anyone who even talks to you."

Taichi opened his mouth to argue, but shut it, realizing that in fact, Yamato did. Taichi's eyes widened, his mouth dropped and he turned bright red.

"Oh My God, Yamato likes me…" Taichi murmured.

"Now that we got that out, do we have a deal?"

"Deal?"

Koushiro sighed. 'Sometimes, Taichi, you shock me with your forgetfulness.' "I ask Mimi if you ask Yamato?"

"I can't ask Yamato! People like me don't ask people like Yamato to go to a dance! And what do I do if he rejects me, calling me a 'sick faggot'?" Taichi's eyes watered at this.

Koushiro sighed and hugged the smaller boy. "Don't worry. He won't. I happen to know something about dear Yamato."

Taichi looked up, eyes still watering. "What?"

"He happens to swing both ways."

"Huh?"

Koushiro dropped his head. "He's bi."

Taichi shook his head. "No way!"

"Why?"

"Because…he's…Yamato! 'Bi' and 'Yamato' in the same sentence does not compute. Unless 'not' is in that sentence as well!"

Koushiro laughed. "Fine. Don't believe me. But it's true." He continued to clean, leaving Taichi to think.

'First I learn that Yamato might like me, then he's bi? No freakin' way.'

'Why not?'

By this time, Taichi was used to the random voice in his head and welcomed it not happily, but he doesn't freak out when it pops up.

'Cuz, he's Yamato!'

'Funny. I heard the same thing coming from your mouth a moment ago.'

'Cuz it's true!'

'Sure it is.'

'Okay, stop that.'

'Stop what?'

'You know what you're doing.'

'What am I doing, dear Chi?'

'You know…Chi? What brought that on?'

'Remember dear Yama called you that? Or do you have that short of a memory?'

Taichi growled at the voice in his head.

"What are you growling at, Taichi?" a confused Koushiro asked.

"Nothing. I better go. See you tomorrow!"

"Sure." Koushiro waved as Taichi left. He sat down at the table and held his head in his hands. 'Mimi likes me? Can't be…Maybe Taichi heard something else…' But inside, chibi Koushiro was jumping up in down in happiness.

Okay, no actual Yamato or Yamachi moments, but Koushiro has to have his moments too! Yamato will be back in two or three chapters. I'm going to introduce some more people, then I'll get back to the fluffy Yamachi moments, then the angst moments, then the bittersweet fluffy moments, then I'll end it So, yeah. Stay tuned! Thanks for reading, and please review.
