Chapter Seven
Sora was chilling out in her room, as per usual her mum was at the flower shop and Sora had the house to herself. She had intended to go out with a few mates from school but she couldn't really be bothered to move from the spot she was in.
It was a Saturday and all of the original digidestined were busy, Mimi because well she was in America, Joe because he was studying for his mid term exam, Izzy was helping the new digidestined with something and well Tai, he had a soccer tournament all day, Sora was invited to watch him but he gets all nervous when she is there and he doesn't perform as well as he can so she said that it was probably best for his team if she didn't turn up, which Tai understood completely.
The only other person that wasn't busy was Matt, he normally has band practice on a Saturday but the drummer Johnny had come down with the flu and couldn't make it, so they called the practice off for the day. But Sora didn't know that.
Sora was flicking through the channels on her television and just as she suspected there was nothing on. She slouched in the chair and let out a sigh, she was so bored she never thought she could be so bored, but here she was that bored.
Sora turned the television off and decided to catch up on some sleep, she had been having a few restless nights, because she was thinking about what Matt had said to her, it was playing back in her mind. What did he mean?
Just as Sora was dozing off, the doorbell rang, this was the last thing she needed, he screaming friends coming over and gate-crashing her house. Sora pretended that there was no-one in and ignored the bell, wishing that they would get bored and leave, but they didn't, the bell kept ringing.
Reluctantly Sora got up and walked towards the door, and opened it, to her astonishment it wasn't her screaming friends it was Matt.
"Matt, what are you doing here, don't you have band practice or something today?"
"Yeah I did but Johnny has got the flu so we called it off today, and well I was sat at home bored and I thought you might want to hang out at my house or something and catch up?"
Sora looked at Matt.
"I thought you would have been with Anya?"
"Maybe I don't want to spend the day with Anya, we're nor joined at the hip! So what do you say then?
"Matt I don't know, is that such a good idea?"
"Hey we will play it cool, you know, sit down watch a couple movies talk, you know like we used to do before this all happened."
"Do you know what Matt, that sounds like the best offer I have had all day, come in and wait while I get changed."
"Why you look fine the way you are."
Sora looked at Matt scornfully.
"You said we would keep it cool, not for my sake Matt but for Tai, and I suppose Anya's."
"Yeah, yeah I am sorry I couldn't help it."
"Yeah well keep it in next time."
Sora walked into her room and shut the door and got changed. Matt was sitting in her living room twiddling his thumbs, he was acting as though he was taking her out on their first date, but that wasn't the case.
Sora came out of her room, she was wearing a pair of tight fitting jeans and a white tank top, it was minimal but very effective, a great combo.
It was such a great combo, that when Matt saw her his mouth hit the floor.
"You look amazing, who knew?"
"Tread carefully Mr Ishida, what was our deal?"
"Yeah I know what the deal is, but your playing unfairly."
"Yeah I know."
Sora ushered Matt out of her apartment she followed after she wrote a quick note to her mum, telling her where she was, so that she wouldn't worry.
When Sora and Matt arrived at Matt's apartment, it was just as Sora remembered it, and she found it comforting, for some reason, she had no idea why.
"Let me take your jacket ma'am."
"Why thank you kind sir."
"So what do you want to watch first?"
"Well last time we did this you chose Matt so its my turn now I think."
"Yeah that sounds about right, so what are you in the mood for?"
"A drama, a romantic drama."
"You are so loving this."
Sora looked at Matt who was sprawled out on his bed, she couldn't help but laugh, she just wanted to be with him so that she could be able to jump onto of him and kiss him from head to toe and know that she wasn't doing anything wrong.
"Sora?"
"Ohh sorry I was caught up in a day dream."
"Yeah it looked like it, I hope it was interesting?"
Sora looked at Matt again, this time with a smirk on her face
"Just me it was very interesting."
Sora walked out of Matt's room and into the kitchen, she looked around and called to Matt.
"Hey Matt, since your supplying the film and the bed to lay in, I am going to cook you something ok?"
"Yeah sounds like a plan, just try not to kill me."
"Very funny Matt."
Matt came out from his room and stood leaning against the fridge looking at Sora while she was creating the feast. He couldn't help but stare at her, he wished so much that they could be together but he knew that they could only be friends for the time being, and he would rather have her as a friend than not have her in his life at all.
"Matt, I need to get in there."
Sora was stood in front of Matt with her hands on her hips and waiting for Matt to move, but he wasn't budging.
"Make me."
"Is that a challenge Matt?"
"Well, what do you think?"
"Yeah it was, I am going to give you till the count of three to move away from the fridge safely, before I have to use force!"
Matt stared at Sora as she counted down, he wasn't moving not even a twitch.
Finally Sora got to one and Matt still hadn't moved.
"Right that's how you want to play it then, here I come."
This was the sort of thing that Matt and Sora used to do before things became so complicated between them. Matt had missed this, and so had Sora.
Sora was coming towards Matt now, and she started to tickle him, Matt started to laugh uncontrollably, Sora was laughing because Matt was laughing, and they were laughing together. The tickle fight moved into the front room, Matt was now chasing Sora around the living room chairs, Sora was dodging Matt, and Matt was coming towards Sora, he grabbed her and started to tickle her.
"Matt stop that it tickles!"
"That's the point."
Sora broke free from his grasp and ran into the bedroom, she jumped on his bed and laid there curled in a ball under his covers so that he couldn't get to her. Matt came running in and pretended that he couldn't see the lump under his covers, the lump being Sora.
"Oh where is Sora, oh where could she be? Is she in the wardrobe? No no-one there, is she under my desk? No, oh what's this lump in my bed?"
Matt walked over to his bed and he could hear Sora's heavy breathing.
Matt pulled the covers off of Sora and she lay there for him to see, Matt grabbed her and sprawled her out on the bed so that she was facing him. His legs were either side of her waist, she was pinned.
"Please Matt I surrender, you can block my way to the fridge."
"Sora, who said this was about a fridge?"
Matt looked deep into Sora's eyes, he had her in the perfect place, they were both breathing heavily, as you do after you have been chased, the moment felt so right if Matt didn't take the chance he knew that he would regret it.
Matt ceased the moment and moved towards Sora slowly and kissed her, and then pulled away slowly.
"Sora I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that."
Sora reached her hands up and cupped his face, and pulled him towards her slowly and kissed him the same way he kissed her.
"I never said no."
Matt moved toward her lips again and kissed Sora passionately, and Sora reciprocated and kissed him just as passionately back, they both had what they wanted, they had each other.
Matt and Sora stayed in that position as they kissed passionately, they both knew where it was leading but neither said stop, they carried on.
Matt pulled away from Sora slowly leaving her confused.
"Is something wrong?"
"Of course not, but I thought I would make it easy."
Matt lifted his arms up and pulled his shirt off to reveal his toned body, you can imagine what followed.
Matt was sat on the end of his bed with his head in his hands, while Sora was putting her tank top and jeans back on, the room was silent, they had done the unthinkable, they were overstepping the boundaries when they had their stolen kisses, but this, they had officially cheated on Tai and Anya, Matt and Sora knew it was now too late to stop it.
"Matt, what are we going to do?"
Matt lifted his head up and saw Sora sat next to him.
"I don't know Sora, where do we go from here?"
"Well I know one thing, we can't tell anyone what has happened, and I know what I am going to do."
Matt was intrigued.
"I know we can't tell anyone this will be our little secret, but what else are you going to do?"
"I have to make some choices. I will see you later Matt, and I think it is best that we don't speak about what happened, even though it blew my mind."
Matt laughed, he felt the same way.
"Sora, I love you."
Sora walked towards Matt and cupped his face and kissed him passionately.
"I love you too. But as I said choices have to be made."
With that Sora walked out of his room and out of his apartment and left Matt sat on his bed thinking about what had happened, how does deciding on a movie lead to making a meal and most of all how does a tickle fight lead to mind-blowing sex? And what did Sora mean by choices? He thought it was obvious.
