Chapter 2
"That was a pretty good movie" TK said stretching as he got out of his seat
"I agree the CGI they used was remarkable" Izzy said getting up
"Only you, Izzy, would be more into the computer stuff than the story" Mimi said also stretching and getting up
"So, what should we do next?" Sora asked the group
"Let's head to the nearest park I think we need a good walk after we've been sitting for so long" Kari suggested
--
They got to the park and walked around discussing more on what they liked and didn't like about the movie.
"The movie was good, but I think they went too much of a soap opera that it got complicated" Sora said
"I agree it was complicated" Kari said nodding
"You know, Kar if Davis was here he'd be agreeing with you that the movie was complicated even after agreeing with someone else, who said something else before" TK said with a smile
Kari laughed, "you're right TK, Davis would"
The others laughed since they've seen the sight many times also
"So, how is Yolei doing?" Mimi asked after sobering up
"She's doing great hers and Ken's anniversary is coming up" TK said
"Yeah, Yolei is totally psyched about she's marking off the days to it" Kari said sighing
"Ken is trying do his best to keep is surprise under wraps, but he says it's hard with Yolei almost breathing down his neck" TK said with a chuckle
"Poor Ken, but thankfully Cody is helping take some of the pressure of him by keeping Yolei busy and I think Ken was going to get her family to help because I think he'll need it" Kari said shaking her head at her friend's behavior
"I'm pretty sure Ken will have everything set and ready to impress Yolei" Izzy said with confidence
"How would you know Izzy?" Mimi asked arching an eyebrow
"I just do" Izzy replied simply, which annoyed Mimi
Izzy smirked knowing he was irritating Mimi, which Sora saw and smiled at the two with TK and Kari totally confused
"Izzy, why won't you tell me how you know?" Mimi whined
"Because, I promised," Izzy simply said
"Does this mean you helped Ken?" Kari asked
Izzy shrugged and said, "maybe"
"Izzy, just tell us because I think Mimi is about to explode" Sora said trying to hold back her laughter
The others turned to see Mimi trying to hold back from yelling and strangling the computer genius
"Alright, alright Mimi I'll tell you. Ken called me a while back and asked for my help to give Yolei the best anniversary ever" Izzy said smiling
"How come Ken went to you, Izzy and not me, Sora, or Mimi?" Kari asked curiously
"I'm not sure really I mean you're right you, Sora, or Mimi would be a better choice and I asked him, but he said that he wanted my help and he was quite adamant with wanting my help" Izzy said shrugging
"That's interesting" TK commented
The four walked around some more until Izzy remembered that he had a report to do and Mimi decided that she was done for the day and went with Izzy since they lived close by each other.
"Is there something going on between Izzy and Mimi that we missed?" Kari asked Sora when the two were gone
"You could say that" Sora said simply
"Well, what is it Sora don't leave Kari and I in the dark" TK said
"Well it started when we graduated and Mimi was panicking about college so Izzy being the gentleman he is helped her with the transition" Sora said
"So that's why Mimi lives close to Izzy" Kari said understanding
"Yep that's why" Sora said
"Well that's interesting I never thought Izzy and Mimi" TK said shaking his head in disbelief
"I didn't either and neither did Tai until we noticed how much time Mimi was spending with Izzy and of course she denied it saying that he was just helping her study, but I don't believe it" Sora said smiling
"Do you think that Izzy feels the same about Mimi?" Kari asked
"I'm not sure Tai is supposed to get that info, but he hasn't got anything that I know of" Sora said frowning a bit
The three walked some more around the park until Sora decided that they should go bug Tai at work saying that it would be fun. When they got there Tai was busy waiting on three tables, but when he saw who came in he grinned.
"Hey Sora, what are you doing here on your day off?" the hostess said
"I came here to bug Tai, Amy" Sora said
"Well, you're in luck there's a table open in his area" Amy said beckoning them to follow her
When Sora, TK, and Kari were seated Tai came over to them
"I was wondering if you guys would stop by" Tai said taking out his notepad
"I decided that your suffering could wait until now" Sora said smiling
"You're too kind Sor, so what do you guys want?" Tai asked
The three ordered and Tai left to place it
"So this is where you guys work, it's nice" TK said looking around
"Yeah the manager here is nice he fixes the schedule to fit with our course schedule" Sora said
"That's nice" Kari said
Tai came back a little later with their drinks
"Here you guys are" Tai said
"Thanks Tai, so have you found if Izzy likes Mimi yet?" TK asked after taking his drink
"So, Sora has told you guys about that, huh?" Tai said
"Yeah she has" Kari said
Tai nodded then sighed, "Sorry Sor, but Izzy is pretty tight lip about his feelings that it makes it downright impossible to get him to confess"
Sora frowned hear this, but that changed into a Tai like mischievous smirk
"Uh-oh, that smirk looks very familiar" Kari said when she saw it
TK and Tai noticed this also, but the two had different reactions to it. TK looked a little scared and Tai, well Tai he began to sport the same smirk knowing what Sora had planned.
TK and Kari looked at the two then at each other and were completely frighten of what was going through their minds.
"Tai are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Sora asked her close friend and co-conspirator
"I am Sor, I am" Tai answered
"Looks like this is going to be an interesting vacation" TK whispered to Kari
Kari nodded a bit scared at what her brother and friend had planned
Tai left to go check on his other tables
"Should I even ask what you two are scheming?" Kari asked looking at the older girl
"Do you really wanna know?" Sora asked smirking
Kari hesitated
"I think we'll be fine not knowing" TK said answering for himself and Kari
"Suit yourself" Sora said shrugging
--
After they had their meal they said goodbye to Tai and left
"So what should we do now?" TK asked
"I don't know about you two, but I'm tired" Kari said yawning a little
"We can drop you off back at the apartment if you want" Sora said
"That sounds good" Kari said
They walked back to the apartment and dropped Kari off and then left and went back to the park.
"So TK, how have you been, you know considering?" Sora asked
"Well, I'm surviving that's all I can say really" TK answered
"TK, I don't know how you feel because I've never been in your position before, but I'm here to talk if you need to" Sora said comfortingly
"Thanks Sora, so how has it been living with Tai?" TK asked with interest
"We haven't killed each other yet," Sora said with a laugh
TK laughed at this also
"Well that's good, but that isn't what I was talking about" TK said laughing
"What do you mean?" Sora asked confused
"I've seen how you and Tai act around one another and it's just like Kari and myself, but older really" TK said
"You've got to be kidding TK. There is nothing going on with Tai and myself he's just a friend, my best friend" Sora said
"Really, Sora because before you dated my brother you and Tai were inseparable and could know what the other is thinking without a word spoken" TK said smirking
"TK, Tai and I are not like Kari and yourself we are just friends we have no feelings like that for each other" Sora said more determined
"Are you sure about that?" TK asked quirking an eyebrow
Sora paused and her brain started to rush through a stream of memories starting when she decided to move in with Tai.
Begin flashback
"Here we are Sora, you're new home for the next few years," Tai said setting down her last box
"I want to thank you for letting me stay here Tai, I don't know what I'd do" Sora said smiling as she started to put things away
"Come Sor, you're my best friend I couldn't let you hang like that. I wouldn't be a good friend if I didn't help you now would I?" Tai said smiling
"I guess not, though I have no idea how I'll ever repay you" Sora said now unwrapping some of her fragile objects
"No need to thank me at all Sor, you'd do the same for me if you were in my position" Tai said smiling as he helped her unpack
Sora smiled
"Hey, it's been awhile since I've seen that smile" Tai said looking up from what he was doing
"Huh?"
"That smile" Tai said smiling
Sora looks at him confused
Tai gets up and grabs a picture from his room and shows it to her. She notices that it is one of her and him when they were younger. They were both covered in mud since it was after one of their soccer games. She looks at the faces and notices what Tai was talking about. Her smile in the picture reached her eyes and you can tell because they are twinkling.
"I am, I guess I never noticed" Sora said taking her eyes off the picture
Tai just smiles and takes the picture out of her hand and puts it back in his room. When he returns he starts back at putting things away. Sora however, was now curious wondering why she hasn't smiled like that in such a long time, but shakes it off and starts unpacking again. Though a slight blush is on her face because Tai is the only one to notice what kind of smile she wears.

Tai and Sora were lounging on the couch bored out of their minds
"So what do you want to do tonight?" Tai asked as he laid his head onto her shoulder
"I have no idea" Sora said looking at Tai
"Well how about-" Tai was cut off
"No Tai, we did that last night," Sora said
"Okay, then well we could…" Tai said smiling
"Tai, no we are not going to do that" Sora said frowning
"Come on Sor, it'll be fun" Tai said smiling still
"What you call fun usually means dangerous to the rest of us," Sora said
"Sor, I would never intentional put you in any danger" Tai said surprised
"Whatever Tai, remember the time you thought it was a good idea to sneak into the planetarium and we almost got caught" Sora said
"Oh yeah, I remember that, that was fun" Tai said smirking
Sora just sighed and smiled at Tai's love for adventure and rule breaking
"You'll never change, will you?" Sora said
"Would you like me to change?" Tai asked quirking an eyebrow
Sora thought for a second and then replied, "no, you wouldn't be you and I don't think I'd like you as much as I do if you changed at all. I like you just the way you are"
"Well that's good because I like you just the way you are also" Tai said smiling
"But I changed" Sora said quietly
"Yes, you did, but you're slowly changing back to the girl I know and love" Tai said giving her a hug, which made Sora smile and sigh with content
--
"Tai Kamiya! You get back here this instant!" Sora yelled
"Sora I said I was sorry" Tai said from his hiding spot
"I don't care, you promised me you'd wake me for class and you didn't" Sora said with a growl
"But you looked so tired and I didn't want to wake you" Tai said as he slowly left his hiding spot
Sora slumped a bit still exhausted
"Sor, you're still tired and from trying to do everything all at once. You gotta pace yourself or you'll burn out" Tai said worriedly
"I just want to get things done with, is that so much to ask for" Sora mumbled
"No, but you can't keep doing this" Tai said taking her by the hand and leading her to the couch
"I know it's just I have to do something to keep me busy or I'll go crazy" Sora said as she curled up on the couch
"Sor, I know that you're still getting over Matt, but working yourself til you're ragged isn't going to help" Tai said comfortingly
Sora responded only by snuggling closer to Tai and sighing with content. Tai looked down and smiled and kissed the side of her head making the sleeping girl smile.
End flashback
Sora shook her head of the memories when she heard TK call her name
"What did you say?" Sora asked
"I was worried, you've been in a trance for a good fifteen minutes" TK said
"Sorry, I didn't mean to" Sora said shaking her head
"That's alright, I have a feeling on what you were thinking about" TK said with a smirk
"You do?" Sora asked
"Yeah, I do" TK said still smirking
"You've been spending too much time with Kari" Sora said
"Maybe I have, but I'm not complaining" TK said now smiling
"TK, you've got to just tell her" Sora said
"I know I should, but I don't want to force her into something she might not want" TK said with a bit of a frown
Sora put a comforting arm around the young man
--
When they got back Kari was still asleep and Tai was in the kitchen working on his homework
"Hey you two, where have you been?" Tai asked looking up from his work
"We were just taking a walk Tai, that's all" Sora said
"Alright, Kari's asleep" Tai said pointing to the room where she was in
TK nodded and headed into Kari's room leaving Tai and Sora alone
"What do you think he's up to?" Tai asked
"He's going to do what you've done before" Sora said
"What did I do?" Tai asked perplexed
"Whenever you came over in the morning and I was asleep you woke me up, and rudely I might add" Sora said
"Oh yeah, but you always let me have it for doing that" Tai said smiling at the memories
"TK!"
--
Later that night Kari was still giving TK small glares at what he did to wake her up.
"Come on Kari, I told you I was sorry. I didn't know you'll react like that, I swear" TK said again trying to explain himself
Tai however found it very humorous and had to restrain himself from bursting with laughter every couple minutes making Kari cast a glare his way. Sora however, just sighed because she knew exactly what Kari was going through and knew that the young girl will get over it soon.
"I'll get you back TK, you can count on that" Kari said giving TK one last glare
TK gulped
This made Tai lose it and fell to the ground laughing making Sora sigh and roll her eyes at her friend's immature behavior.
TK decided he had to do something desperate to get back on Kari's good side so he got down his knees in front of Kari and taking her hands her looked up at her with his most desperate pleading look he could muster.
"Kari, I'm so sorry for what I did to you and I promise you that'll never do it ever again. I'll do anything to get back on to your good side" TK pleaded
Sora smirked at this because this scene looked reminiscent of what Tai would do every time after he upset her. She then looked at Tai and saw that he was thinking the same thing as her.
Kari looked at TK and sighed and Sora knew that she crumbled because like Kari she fell apart when Tai apologized like that.
"I forgive you TK, but you better not do that again" Kari said sternly
"I promise I'll never do that again" TK said getting up
--
The next day Kari was getting ready when she heard a knock on the door
"Come in"
"Hey are you ready to go?" TK asked peeking his head in
"I am just let me get my purse" Kari said standing up
TK waited for Kari and the both entered the living room with Tai and Sora waiting for them
"What took you two so long?" Tai asked mischievously
"Knock it off Tai" Sora said swatting her best friend in the back of the head
"Sorry" Tai said rubbing his head
"Are we all set?" TK asked
Tai nodded and led the way out of the apartment
