Disclaimor: I don't own Digimon. If I did, why would I be writing fanfiction?
You know, they say there is a pro and con that comes from every decision you make. I'm not entirely sure if that's true, and if it is, I try to focus on the Pros. I sometimes wonder if there's someone who just focuses on the Cons. I guess that person could be called a Pessimist, but even they have to see the good in something every now and then. I wonder if that's what he's become. A person who's focused only on the Cons. A sad person, who doesn't realize hes not alone. I wonder if I could change that. I wonder if I could show him something amazing. Something that just makes the world shine. Like he showed me so long ago.
- A Thought of Love by Sora Takenouchi
"Taichi, where are we going?" Sora asked, stumbling every once in a while. It had been a week since the mall trip, and Taichi had been doing pretty well. He seemed to know the land better than Sora thought he should. She could almost feel Taichi grin behind her.
"Its a secret!" Sora laughed, and then grimaced as she tripped over another rock. Taichi had tied a blindfold around her and was leading her to God knows where.
"Can I be let in on the secret?"
"You know Sora, if I did that I'm afraid it wouldn't be a secret anymore." Sora frowned, sighed, and kept walking.
"That's another thing I meant to ask you. You just moved here, how do you know where your going?" Taichi shrugged.
"Well, I've been visiting my Grandfather for years." Sora nodded, that made sense. But why had she never noticed him before? Why had she never talked with him, played with him, laughed with him, until now? She was about to ask when Taichi gasped. "Oh my God." Sora blinked.
"What, what's the matter?"
"They cut it down." Sora frowned,
"Cut what down Taichi?" She heard Taichi sit down on the ground. She remained standing.
"The tree..." Sora thought for a second, and then remember. Two years ago they had cut down a bunch of trees and bushes in this one area and turned it into a parking lot for the place next door.
"Oh yeah, that happened about two years ago. We were all upset." She heard Taichi get up. There was silence for a couple seconds before Taichi grabbed her hand.
"Come with me, I know where we're going." Sora stumbled along the path, following a running Taichi. Where were they going now? Where on earth could he be taking her? Suddenly they stopped and she bumped into Taichi. He had a really sturdy strong back because he nose hurt like Hell. She felt her blindfold being undone and her eyes were exposed to the world. It was dark outside, it must be about 7:00 pm now. She knew if she wasn't home soon her mom would kill her. Before here was a little tool shed and next to the tool shed were a bunch of saplings. Taichi took something out of his pocket, it looked like a water balloon, and he threw it at the trees. Sora heard a pop and out of nowhere hundreds of lights came out and started floating towards the sky. Fireflies. Every they turned there were fireflies. Sora fell down laughing in amazement.
"Taichi, this is amazing!" Taichi grinned.
"I knew you'd liked it." They sat down together and watched in amazement as the fireflies filled the sky, "Just a little piece of Wonder. No matter what happens, there will always be a piece of beauty in the world." Taichi said to no one in particular. Sora moved a but closer to Taichi.
"It's amazing Taichi. Simply amazing," They stayed there until the last firefly went out or left the sky. Taichi stood up, brushed himself off, and offered his hand to Sora who took. He pulled her up pretty easily. Sora looked at her watch 8:00 pm. Damn, she was going to be in trouble. "I um, I have to go now Taichi, thanks so much for this, it was amazing. But, I need to get home." Taichi nodded understandingly.
"Goodbye Sora, I'm sorry if I got you in trouble. See you tomorrow!" Sora nodded and ran off. She ran back towards her apartment and when she opened the door, a very mean looking mother was in front of her.
"Sora Takenouchi where have you been?" She asked sternly, "Your father and I have been worried sick. We called Melissa's apartment, Yamato's Apartment, and Sandra' apartment and when they all said you weren't there we got so worried!" Sora took her jacket off and hung it on a hook, she then took her shoes off by the door.
"Mom! I told you I was going out with Taichi. There was something he wanted to show me!" Her mother gasped.
"Taichi, who is this Taichi, is he a nice boy? Where was he taking you this late at night? What were you doing? You didn't!" Sora's mouth dropped.
"MOM! Come on! Give me more credit than that. Taichi is Mr. Jone's grandson. He is a perfect gentlemen and very kind. He just took me to show me fireflies, nothing more, just fireflies." Mrs. Takenouchi looked a bit more relieved at this.
"Fireflies, that's all?" Sora nodded, glaring at her over protective mother.
"That's
all mom, I swear. Glowing bugs, nothing more."
"Ok,
then just go to your room," Sora made a move to protest, "That's
for coming home late, be lucky I'm not grounding you. And NO
COMPUTER!" Sora muttered a yes and stormed off to her room. Her
mom was so unfair sometimes she just hated her.
Taichi's POV
Man that was amazing. I'm only disappointed about one thing, she didn't remember it. I thought for sure she would remember it after this but she didn't. Oh well. Keep trying. I say goodnight to Grandfather, about to go to sleep, and head up to my room. After that I get out a soccer ball and just juggling it. That's what I like to do sometimes, just juggle it. Up and down and up and down. One foot then the other. Its calming, relaxing, it helps. After a couple more minutes of strait juggling I decide to get on my computer. Oh, Yamato's one.
