I do not own Digimon or the charters from season 1 or 2 or the song by evanescence 'everybody's fool'
Chapter 6
10 years ago
The bell rung for break, and people began to race out of the classroom eager to meet there friends or have a private smoke behind the allotment, me? I was slowly putting my books into my bag even though the teacher looked impatient. I stood up and walked out of the classroom looking left to right with caution, sometimes if I was lucky I could make a dash to the library where I could hide between the masses of books. I began to make my way to the library, sneaking behind large groups of people, but I wasn't that lucky. The moment I entered the library I was told to leave as the library was closed for today, I panicked that very moment and began to run around looking for places to hide, but I had no such luck and banged right into 'Hiskora'. Hiskora was the worst bully in the whole school, he was large and had short black hair. On my first day here, he acted all nice and offered to show me around, but when we reached the toilets, he suddenly turned nasty and slammed me up against the wall and ordered me to give him my lunch money. Ever since that day my mum made my lunch but it just encouraged him and he would just grab hold of it and dump some mud into it. He was looking at me now with a sharp smile, and I began to shake all over, his friends began to surround me and before I knew it I was grabbed hold of and stuffed into a locker.
"Let me out!" I cried banging my fist onto the cold metal. He chuckled at me and walked off, his friends following suit, laughing like hyenas. I kept on banging and screaming for someone to let me out, everyone who did notice me just shrugged and walked off, one person came up and asked me my name when I did, she just grinned and said something about deserving it and walked off again. Tears sprung from my eyes and I could just hear the bell go. I was going to be late! It would be hours until someone noticed I was gone, maybe days. I cried weakly and began to bang harder. That's when the locker door sprung open and there stood a shocked looking Yamato.
"What are you doing in there?" He asked as I stood out. I threw my arms around him and sobbed. I then pulled away and blushed embarrassed.
"How did you find me?" I whispered weakly wiping the tears away with my school jumper.
He pointed to the locker.
"This is my locker, see I was just trying to find it." He put up a small key and then suddenly grinned evilly. "If this is my locker and you were in it that means you belong to me." He laughed, I turned pale and shuddered. He poked me and then touched my hair which just sprung back up.
"Joke." He said before turning and walking away. I watched him, he looked like he was still talking, then he suddenly stopped and jumped.
"Hey! Your meant to follow me!" He yelled turning red. I hesitated not sure if this was a trap of not. He sighed then walked back to me and grabbed my jumper and dragged me towards the toilets.
I began to panic again, but then calmed down after Yamato stroked my hand which I now noticed was bleeding.
"How long were you in the locker?" He asked softly.
"About.. fifteen minutes" I said, he kicked open the door and yelled to a couple who were making out.
They blushed and ran out. I watched after them shocked.
"Hey weren't they both…" Yamato nodded with a amused smile on his face. "Yep both boy's, now hold still." He began to wipe my bleeding hand with a wet piece of tissue. Then he looked up and met my eyes.
"There." He mumbled dropping my hand. He then began to walk out.
"Hey we're be even later, if you don't hurry up." He said before running out, I ran after him and smiled.
"Yea ok let's go to class, see you at detention." and with that I ran off towards my next lesson thinking only of Yamato.
The park was almost empty, the kids and there mums had gone a long time ago and the ducks had swam off into the distance. I just sat there watching the silver moon's reflection in crystal lake, everything was silent and calm, no sound, no movement everything was just still. I could almost see a ghostly figure of Yamato laying in my arms, he would be dressed in his usual black shirt and dark jeans. His beautiful spiky hair being stroked by my hand, he would look up at me with those angelic sapphire eyes and smile in that familiar way then I would lean forward and claim his lips and he would accept it, I pulled away and said 'I love you' he would open his mouth to say it, then he would stop and suddenly he was in tears again and scream 'I hate you!'. I needed to see him, but my legs refused to move. I burst into tears, sound returning once more and claiming the area which sounded me. It was as if I had just stepped back into my body and noticed how much it hurt. The pain was like a knife piercing my chest every time those words were said.
I did the one thing I thought of first, I pulled out my cell phone and called home. Hikari answered cheerfully but once she heard me in my sobbing sate she asked me what was wrong very firmly. I told her the whole story and she listened, once I had finished there was nothing but silence.
"Hikari!" I whimpered.
"I'm here!" she answered automatically then she sighed. "Listen Tai, usually I can be pretty useful in tight spots like this, but my only advice for you is to find Yamato and tell him how much you love him." There was another silence this time from me.
"You do love him right?" Kari asked. I paused before smiling and nodding.
"I do. I do!" I said cheerfully smiling. I then snapped my cell phone shut and put it in my pocket. All the times, I had been with Yamato all the smiles all the hugs all the laughs we shared. They were the only thing I could be the real me, not the brave leader but the normal kid who had enough courage to love someone, not like Sora, Sora only kissed me because she felt she needed to, even though her crest was love, it had lost it power long ago, but mine hasn't. Yamato he had the crest of friendship, our friendship was so strong that we both used the courage to pull it up a level, to love. Something that Sora had lost and was trying to find and when she saw we had it she would do all she could to take it away from us, even if it broke us apart.
I stood and raced out of the park, I knew where he was. I looked up at the street name 'Highton view terrace' the place was still pretty bad from the monster attack but I didn't care. I ran up the steps and came to my old door where I banged my fist against it, to my relief Matt opened it, he looked tired and upset. His face puffy from the tears. He then looked at me. Yamato took one look at me then slammed the door on my face leaving me out in the night, "Yamato please open it up I... love you" I screamed, there was nothing for a while until the door creaked open and he stood out, his face in tears, he then threw his arms around me and cried. I cried to, we both did until we both fell asleep in each others arms.
