Chapter 05: Matt, Mimi, Matt, Mimi

Monday morning…

"Let's go now!" T.K. yelled, Matt was putting gel on his hair and Mimi was retouching her face.

"Done!" Mimi said.

"Okay, so let's go now!" Matt said and walked to school with the two.

School…

Mimi walked to the hallways, just walking to her next class. She realized that there were so many posters of 'HEARTTHROB AND SWEETHEART'. She passed by Kari and asked her. "Hey, Kari, what's up with this contest?" Mimi asked.

"That's for everyone to join and all of the students will vote who'll they want until the last round's finish." Kari explained.

"Thanks! Oh and Kari, T.K. told me that you should be more like me!" Mimi said sarcastically, Kari laughed.

Mimi heard noises again, and as she walks closer, she could hear Matt. And yes it was Matt.

"Mimi, I need you to be my girlfriend." Matt whispered.

"WHAT!" Mimi yelled in disbelief.

"Mimi! Please!" Matt pleaded.

"I'm not allowed yet!" Mimi yelled, not caring people were listening.

"Come on! I'm Matt! Your best friend! I love you!" Matt said, Mimi was shooking her head. Good thing is, she didn't heard Matt saying 'I love you', still confused.

"No!" Mimi said. "Alright." Matt said. Matt reached Mimi's hands and lightly kissed it. Some of Matt's fans broke the thing they're all holding and some are fainting.

"What's that for?" Mimi whispered to his ear.

"Nothing." Matt answered; he held her hand and walked with her.

"You're supposed to be in class, Matt." Mimi reminded.

"Oh, yeah. Sorry. Bye." He said and waved his hand at her, she waved back.

(A/n: Matt's pretty annoying to Mimi in here!)
She was alone again; she continued to walk to her class.

A group of girls circled her, this includes Jun.

"Uh-no time to chat guys! Need to go to class!" Mimi said nervously as she tried to get out.

"Classes can wait. We need a little talk." Jun said threateningly.

Mimi nodded nervously, Jun grinned and so as her group.

"Tell us, Tachikawa, what's up between you and Yamato?" Jun asked strictly.

"We're bestfriends." Mimi answered quickly.

"You're lying." Jun said, Jun grabbed a carton of milk from her bag and was about to pour it on her. She ran away and suddenly bumped…Matt. Oh boy, Jun's so in trouble!

"Hey Mimi, I thought you're a your class by now." Matt asked.

"I'm fine!" Mimi said, but she heard Jun's voice calling her. "Not fine!" she said and started to run, but Matt grabbed her wrist.

"You're not really fine. Tell me, what's the problem?" Matt arched a brow, Mimi was nibbling her finger.

"Tachikawa!" Jun appeared and she poured the carton of milk to Mimi, but Matt pushed her, and guess what…Jun just poured milk on Matt!

"Oh my! I'm sorry Mattie!" Jun apologized and glared at Mimi.

"This is your fault, Tachikawa!" Jun almost yelled at her.

"Oh shut up! I'm tired of you! I'm not your boyfriend! You all already know who's the girl I like, so stop bothering me!" Matt exclaimed, he grabbed Mimi and left Jun.

"Here." Mimi started to wipe off the milk that spilled on Matt's clothes and his hair with her handkerchief.

"Thanks." He thanked and looked away.

"Matt, I'm sorry to reject but I'm not 17 yet." Mimi began, Matt just smiled.

"I'd do anything for you." He said coolly, she blushed.

"I gotta go." She said and hugged him. "Thank you." She whispered.

After school…

"Tell me, what's all about this heartthrob and sweetheart thingy?" she asked Matt.

"It's a contest. Girls would vote boys while boys vote for girls." Matt said.

"Matt had won every year!" T.K. said.

"I bet your going to win this time!" Mimi said.

"I will if you're going to win as well." He said coolly.

The three walked to the house, T.K. and Mimi were walking slowly. The two were talking about Kari…again.

"You really think so?" Mimi arched a brow.

"Yup!" T.K. answered.

"Let's just make it like this; I'm Matt and Kari is Mimi!" T.K. said, Mimi squeezed his cheek.

T.K.'s bedroom…nine o'clock pm

"Where will this thing begin?" Mimi asked.

"Tomorrow." Matt said.

"I don't mind you two winning, as long as Kari doesn't end up with Matt." T.K. yawned and slept.

Mimi pecked T.K. on the cheek; she turned around and saw Matt pointing at his cheek.

"He got one?" he said.

"Me too!" he said, Mimi sighed and lightly planted a kiss in his cheek.

"Goodnight!" she said and turned off the lights.

School Auditorium…

Finalists were Matt, T.K., and Yuuto and Mimi. Kari and guess what…Sora.

"Good luck Matt!" Mimi gave him thumbs up.

"Good luck Mimi." He said, smiled at her and winked.

The finalists sat down and listened attentively, except for T.K. and Kari.

"The final task is…we're going to pair you all up and take the picture perfect." The principal said.

"So, let me see, Kari with…T.K." T.K. and Kari jumped which made everyone to laugh.

"Okay, enough. Yamato with Sora." Matt gave Mimi a depressed look, but Mimi smiled at him and whispered, "It's alright! Good luck!"

"So, that means, Yuuto and Mimi." Yuuto stuck his tongue out to Matt, Sora was so happy, feeling in cloud nine, she already forgot that Matt still loves Mimi.

Before they could get started, Matt grabbed her hand. "Too bad I'm not your partner." Matt said, Mimi arched a brow while smiling, she hugged him gave a thumbs up.

"Come on Matt, Sora's not bad!" Mimi cheered him.

"I know, but it's best if I'll be your partner anyway." He clenched his teeth. Sora heard everything. Cloud nine turned to cloud six.

"Okay everyone! Yuuto and Mimi!" the principal yelled, the photographer smiled.

Mimi was getting uncomfortable, especially with Yuuto. "Strike a pose." The photographer said, Mimi just smiled when Yuuto put his arm around her neck. Click! Mimi thumbs up when Yuuto snug her.

After the two, Matt couldn't resist every picture of them, jealousy reigned again.

"Sora, Yamato!" they were next, Sora giggled, Matt sighed and forced to smile.

Click! Sora leaned her body to Matt, which almost caused her to lie on the floor, Matt had a weird smile.

"Yamato, what's wrong with you?" the principal asked,

"To tell you all the truth, I think it's better to be Mimi's partner." He said, Sora was silent Mimi's eyes wide opened.

"Fine!" he said, and then Matt smiled and shoots with her.

"You make the lamest excuses." Mimi said as she rolled her eyes. Click! Mimi had a close-up with Matt Click! Matt put his arm around her and Mimi had a peace sign.

Click! Mimi's eyes wide open when Matt gave her a friendly kiss on the cheek.

The photographer smiled. The two teens really look cute together.

"You're very annoying!" Mimi said and laughed, she loved his annoyance.

"Hmmm…I like your childishness." Matt said. The two take a seat and started to talk, Sora looked at the two, they were so happy together.

"Kari and T.K.!" the principal said.

"This is what I want to see!" Matt yelled and put an arm around her neck, Mimi laughed.

"Let's go then!" Kari said and T.K. nodded, holding her hand.

Click! Kari was shocked when T.K. faced at her, their noses touched. Mimi and Matt laughed. Sora didn't bother and Yuuto wanted to punch T.K. after that.

Click! T.K. had his hand on top of Kari, who was wearing his hat Click! T.K. was carrying Kari.

The photographer smiled. This two make a cute couple just like the blonde guy and the longhaired girl.

"Ha! That's so funny!" Mimi laughed, T.K. and Kari blushed madly.

"You two are so cute together! I never knew that!" Matt teased, T.K. punched him playfully.

"Aw! Come on! You two shouldn't be blushing!" Mimi said as she pointed to their red cheeks.

The principal carried the ballot boxes, each box had a picture. # 01, T.K. and Kari (T.K. had his hand on top of Kari, who was wearing his hat) #02 Sora and Yamato (Sora leaned her body to Matt, which almost caused her to lie on the floor, Matt had a weird smile.) #03 was Mimi and Yuuto (Mimi thumbs up when Yuuto snug her.)

And #04 Mimi and Yamato (Mimi had a close-up with Matt).

"Ballots for H&S is now open. Voting is starts now, 10:20 am to 3:00pm. Good morning to all." The school announcer said. The auditorium suddenly been crowded. The finalists sat still, T.K. and Kari were flirting again, Matt and Mimi are talking about things she will do if she turned 17 Sora and Yuuto are both daydreaming about Matt and Kari.

"You really think so?" T.K. looked at Matt and Mimi, Matt was playing Mimi's ponytail.

"Yup!" Kari answered.

"How come?" T.K. asked.

"Just look at them." Kari said and joined T.K. looking at the two.

"Oh. You know, Matt told me that when Mimi turns (Kari started to talk with T.K.) to 17, Matt will ask Mimi to be his boyfriend." The two said in chorus.

"I already know that." Kari said.

"I don't know!" Mimi said, Matt started to poke her on her backbone.

"Tell me! Who is it?" Matt asked again, T.K. and Kari were enjoying the scene.

"No!"

"Alright then!" Matt non-stop tickled her.

"Okay! I'll tell! I'll tell!" Mimi said, laughing. Matt stopped tickling her.

"My first crush is actually…T.K." Mimi said shyly, she looked over at Kari and T.K., T.K.'s jaw dropped. Matt had his eyes wide open.

"Why him!" Matt exclaimed. T.K.? My own brother?
"Well, he's kinda cute. And when we're at the digital world, we play a lot and he fonds me." She said shyly.

Matt was about to explode but then, Wait, T.K. and Mimi can't be together! T.K. has Kari!

"But I only had a crush on him, not love. Just a childhood crush. I know its weirdness is getting on your nerves, but I think T.K.'s like a brother-crush-thingy." She said uncoolly, Matt gently calmed down.

T.K. tried to explain to Kari, who remained silent. "Kari, I never knew that, sorry." T.K. apologized, no response, and then Kari smiled. "It's okay! I know you like Mimi because she's like a sister to you!" Kari said, T.K. smiled and deep breathed.

"I really like Mimi, well just like, I like you more!" T.K. said, Kari giggled.

"Do you have a crush on me then?" Matt asked coolly, Mimi blushed a little and nodded.

"Of course I do. I have crush on every guy, except Yuuto. T.K., you, Tai, Joe, Izzy, Michael! Because there's something to admire in you." Mimi said. Matt sighed. I forgot, for her, crush is to admire people. So that was her answer. I thought crush is some kind of close to love.

"What about crush close to love?" he asked again, Mimi nodded.

"Of course I do! I love you and T.K. and everyone! Just like what the Bible says 'love everyone!'" she quoted. Matt sighed again. I forgot again! She loves everyone because God says so!

"I give up!" Matt yelled, everyone looked at him, even Mimi; she arched a brow and laughed.

"Give up on what?" Mimi asked.

"Nothing." He answered quickly.

"Anyway, what about you? Who's your crush now?" Mimi asked.

"I thought you already know!" Matt said, Mimi shook her head. Matt smiled widely.

"You'll know on Valentines' Day." Matt said, Mimi pouted.

"That's so long!" she complaint.

"I know, but it's very worthy." He said, she smiled.

Mimi began to sing softly 'Pretty Baby'

"You light me up and then I fall for you. You lay me down and then I call for you. Stumbling on reasons that are far and few. I'd let it all come down and then some for you…" she sang, Matt couldn't say anything, he can listen to her voice everyday.

She ended the song, Matt was lost in words.

"By the way, what do you think about us?" Matt asked suddenly. Mimi arched a brow.

"I mean, us, Me, Tai, T.K. and the others." He explained, Mimi grinned.

"I'm glad you asked. Now, First-Tai, I think he's a good leader but he's kinda bossy. But he's really sweet. (Matt frowned a little) Joe-Joe's very reliable, he understands although he always scolds me. Izzy- he's very intelligent but somehow when he gets into computer, he forgets us. Sora-she's really sweet, caring, and loveable. I think you two would make a good pair, you know, the Crest of Friendship and Love. (Matt had a sad expression on his face). Kari- I don't know but she's just like me, just like what T.K. said. And now, T.K.- he's optimistic, he's funny, sweet, thoughtful, and friendly and always be there to help me. You, Matt Ishida- you're a quite loner, annoying sometimes, but I think you're so protective so it makes me feel more safe with you and I think you're kinda cool." She said, Matt smiled when she said 'it makes me feel more safe with you'. Mimi, I hope you really feel that way when you're with me.

"Anyway, what about you, what do you feel about us?" Mimi's turn to ask.

" Let's start with Tai- although we always argue and fight over the little things but I think we're great friends. Sora- she's really caring just like you told me, she's patient and kind either, I wish I had a mother like that ("Me too." Mimi said). Joe-he really deserved Reliability; you can always depend on him. Izzy- smart and a high I.Q. I just wish he could care more about us than his computer. Kari-I think you're right, she's just like you, Mimi. T.K.- I don't know but he's always there to cheer me up. And lastly, You-Mimi Tachikawa, you're sometimes wacky but it makes you, you. And when I'm around you, I think I can tell everything what my mind is thinking right now, and you're really are my best friend." Matt said, she smiled at him.

"Mimi, since it is September, would you want to go to the movies? Without T.K." he said, Mimi quickly nodded. "Anyway, why September bothered you?" Mimi asked.

"I just remembered the movie, "A Walk To Remember"." He answered, Mimi sobbed a little.

"Why are you crying?" Matt asked.

"The story's so sad! Jamie died! It's such a sad ending, and the song's so sad." She answered.

"Well, it is sad, but I was planning to watch it with you, but I think it's not a good idea." He said while he wipes her tears.

"It's really sad! The girl died suddenly because of leukemia, then the guy finally knew she has it, and she was about to die!" she exclaimed. Matt sweat dropped this catches attentions of everyone.

"Yamato, What have you done to her?" a blue-haired girl said.

"I'm fine! It's not his fault." Mimi said. The people in the auditorium continued to vote.

"You think that when I grow up, do you ever think that we can't have anytime for each other anymore since we got kids, work, and lots of stuff?" she suddenly said.

"No. I'll always have time for you." He said. "What if I do not?" she said, a tear formed.

"I'll still be your best friend even if you already forgot me." He said. Best friend or even more. "I don't want to forget you." She whispered. His friendship for her was so strong, friendship with her wasn't called friendship at all…is it love?

"I wish we're best friends 'til the end." Mimi said. Matt gave a small sigh.

"Mimi," he called. "Yes?"

"What if best friends could be something more?" Matt hopefully asked. She smiled.

"It would be easy to find love. Since you and your best friend are so close that it would be very easy to fall in love." She answered; Matt hid his face with his hair and grinned.

"Why do you ask?" she asked. "Nothing." He replied.

Now, that's chapter five! Hope you all enjoyed this, Mimato Fans!
