Begins Chapter 5

Hours Later…

Yamato stirred and he woke up startled, "What the hell….." he said aloud. He looked under the covers "My clothes! What happened?" He said scared out of his mind of what he might have done. He noticed that his shirt, pants, and boxers were strewed on the ground all over the place. Then he remembered the drinks and Brittany. "Oh, no… I didn't, I couldn't have," He said He hurried out of the bed and putting his cloths back on in a hurry and ran downstairs finding Brittany.

"Brittany, tell me we didn't do what I thought we did," He said with anxious look in his eyes.

"What do you mean? That we had made love?" she asked.

"SHHHH! Don't say that out loud!" Yamato cried clamping his hand over her mouth.
She pushed his hand away, "Yeah we did. Why don't you remember?" she asked.

"Not exactly," Yamato said

Brittany gave him a disgusted look, "You're so mean I can't believe you don't remember our night of passion you…you! Pervert!" she cried and ran off Yamato stood there confused.

Sora and Taichi had turned and looked at the stairs.

"Yamato?" they both said looking him over his hair was all messed and he had lipstick all over his neck and his lips.

"I so…screwed. I mean…" he stopped then fell on his knees onto the floor.

"What did you do with Mimi?" Taichi asked.

"I didn't do anything….I woke up and I found myself in Brittany's bedroom…." Yamato said devastated and completely guilty of what had happened.

"I can't believe he did this to me, to us," Mimi said aloud. In her bedroom, her eyes were red from crying so much.

"How could he have done this?" She said repeatedly.

Yamato's house…

They had brought him to his apartment again, "Yamato we are friends come on and tell me what exactly happened?" Taichi said.

"I would but I don't remember, all I remember was that I needed to find Mimi but Nina came and brought me to Brittany's room and she feed me drinks then I wanted to leave after the last one but after that…my memory is blank," Yamato said.

"We should have never gone in the first place," Taichi said angry.

"The next thing I knew I woke up and I found myself naked in her bed," Yamato said truly confused.

"Oh my god, Yamato!" Sora said shocked as she remember when Mimi had run passed her.

"Don't tell Mimi Sora please!" he said begging.

"I think it's a little too late for that," Sora said sadly.
Yamato looked at her startled, "What do you mean?" he asked.

"She probably saw with her own eyes, she didn't even want to talk to me or Taichi," Sora told him.

"No she couldn't have seen anything, because I don't remember doing it," Yamato said.

"You can find out tomorrow. We are going to go home and let's hope she didn't see anything," he said trying to comfort him

"Okay," Yamato said.

In the car...

"That's the only explanation that would make sense, Mimi was so upset," She said.

"We don't know that for sure," Taichi said.

After a few minutes later, they were as Sora's house, "Well I'll talk to Mimi tomorrow, and I will find out, I love you," She said she leaned in and kissed him.

"I love you too," He said.

Dec 9th Saturday Morning...

Yamato arrived at Mimi's house.

"Mimi darling Yamato's here," She called to her daughter.

"Tell him I'm not home," Mimi said from upstairs.

"But he's your boyfriend if you got a problem you have to at least talk to him," Her mother told her.

Mimi sighed, "Fine," She said coming down the stairs then going towards the door and opened it.

"You have the some nerve to show up here after what happened last night," Mimi said gritting her teeth angrily.

"Mimi it was not how you think it was and why didn't you wait for me," He asked.

"Why? I didn't want to see you and your new toy," She replied.

Yamato looked at her puzzled, "What are you talking about?" he asked.

"STOP IT Yamato!" she shouted, "STOP LYING TO ME!"

Yamato began to fear that Sora was right, "Sora told me that you left last night and she said you were upset. Is it because you saw something?" He asked again.

Mimi was enraged it was as if he was trying to play games with her so she slapped him across the face,"You know perfectly well what you did. So stop trying to deny it," She said not yelling but feeling hurtful and betrayed and she began to cry, "I don't want this lying if you can't admit to what you did. Then we can't be together," She said.

Yamato devastated and angry, "How am I supposed to know what you saw last night? Mimi you got to believe me what ever it was it was not ture!" he said his emotions starting to get to him.

"Don't make me say it. I don't want to even think about what I saw or what you did," She answered she turned her back to him so she wasn't forced to look as his face.

"Mimi! You saw didn't you my god tell me cause I can't live with myself if I hurt you in any way," He said starting to cry himself.

"GO!" she shouted.

"Mimi I love you though, you have to know that..." he cried in despair.

"IF YOU DID THEN YOU WOULDN'T OF HAD SEX WITH BRITTANY!" she said yelling and then ran up stairs.
Yamato eyes widened in horror then turned into anger as he slammed the front door as he left her house.

Sora moaned, as she tried to get out of bed. She didn't want to get up but she had too. She got out of bed slowly, she stood up and began changed into her clothing.

In the kitchen.

Sora came through the door looking sick her mother noticed, "Sora, are you okay?" she asked her daughter.

"Yeah, I feeling dizzy lately and I fainted a couple of times," She said.

"I'll make an appointment for you okay," Her mother said.

"Sure thanks mom," She said eating the breakfast that was laid out for her while her mother was on the phone with the doctor office to make an appointment for her. 'I got to call Mimi,' She remembered, 'but after I finish eating breakfast.'

"Sora your appointment is next week. Tuesday morning at 9:00am," Her mother told her as she wrote down the time and date and put it on to the fridge.

"Okay thanks mom," She said.

"I'll see you tonight later at the flower shop right?" she asked her daughter.

"Yeah," she said and finished her breakfast and put the plate in the sink going upstairs to her room she picked up the phone and dialed Mimi's phone number.

"She's not answering me," Sora thought aloud.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door, ' I wonder who that could be," She thought and ran down stairs to answer the door, "Oh gosh," She said as she looked through the peek hole she opened the door, "Mimi! Are you okay?" She asked.

"No…I….broke up…with Yamato," She said stammering over her words crying.

Sora was confused, "Why? What happened between you two?" she asked.

Mimi shrugged her shoulders still sobbing tears rolling down her cheeks. Sora had pulled her inside out of the cold and sat her on the couch. She sat next to her sobbing form, "Mimi, I would like to help you but you got to tell me what happened," Sora said softly.

She shook her head, "I can't, it hurts too much to think about it," She said.

Taichi rolled over in his bed and fell off it, "OW, CRAP!" he yelled. "Lousy good for nothing piece of junk," Taichi said to his bed. 'Yamato is such an idiot,' He thought angry, getting up from the ground and walked down stairs to the kitchen where he took his seat at the table, 'this is a mess,' he thought.

Yamato was banging on Brittany's house front door very loud making racket. The maid answered it, "Can I help you mister," She asked annoyed.

"I need to see Brittany is she here?" Yamato asked sounding desperate.

"She's left probably to meet her friends at the café," She said.

"Thank you," Yamato took off to his car and hopped in started his car and left for the Midnight Express.

Mimi had stopped crying now was acting like a zombie sort of, "Mimi I've got to go to work," Sora said to her.

"Oh, I'll leave I'm sorry if I miss convinced you in any way," She said as she got up and put her coat on.

"I'll drive you home okay," Sora said to her.

"Yeah sure, thank you Sora," The two went into the car and Sora drove her home and then went to the Express.

Around eleven thirty…

"Hi Cody," Sora said coming into the express to the counter and went behind it.

"It's starting to get a little busy mostly take-outs anyways, if you can just take care of the people sitting outside," He said handing her apron to her.

"Okay, got ya Cody," she said then began to get to work.

Brittany was sitting at the table with Nina near by, "Brit I don't know what you're doing but the first part of your plan worked," She said.

Brittany just smiled casually, "Yeah, it did work now I have to work on him," She said.

"He probably hates you how are you going to manage that?" Nina asked.

"I got my ways," She said.

Moments after Yamato burst thought the doors; he spotted Brittany and marched toward her. "Can I have a word with you," he asked her.

"Yeah of course sit here," She said and moved a chair so he could sit beside her.

"No some where else, how about outside there," Yamato said pointing outside to the glass patio.

"Okay fine," Brittany said getting up and winked at Nina before following him.

"What exactly happened last night?" he asked.

"We made love and it was the best experience ever," She said with a dreamy expression on her face.

Yamato looked at her then sighed, "No, I mean, what really happened did you set this up so Mimi could see us?." he asked.

"No! how could you say that," She said shocked then starting up on fake tears.

"Listen don't you find it a little odd that I don't remember a single thing about that night," Yamato said.

Brittany cried, "How could you not remember a night like that! I can't believe you," She said crying.

Yamato grew frustrated, "OH THE HELL YOU DIDN'T, HOW ON EARTH DO I NOT REMEMBER SOMETHING LIKE THAT! YOU DID SOMETHING AND I'LL FIND OUT!!" he shouted at her angrily.

Sora and everyone almost in the café turned there heads to the back of the café where they were standing, "I don't want to talk to you anymore go away now," She said tears strained face she returned to her friend who gave her a hug and resumed to cry on Nina's shoulder.

Yamato stared at her in disbelief Sora walked over to him, "Yamato keep it down," She said in a whisper.

"No, I can't did you see what she just did to me!" he shouted frustrated at Sora.

Sora frowned slightly, "Yamato, drop it you are causing a scene," She said.

"She is lying to me, look at the fake tears," he said bitterly as he watched her crying.

Sora looked at the girl at the table and then back at Yamato,"She looks upset for real, Yamato," Sora said.

Yamato angrily stormed out from the back door, "Yamato!" Sora called him but he just ignored her she only frowned then returned to work.

Late that after noon…

Sora's shift was ending in a little while. She folded her apron and put down it away in the drawer underneath the bar.
Taichi came in just when she was done, "Hey Sora," He said looking at her.

"Hi," she said and the two hugged.

"Yamato made a huge scene earlier this afternoon by shouting at Brittany about what happened last night," Sora said.

Taichi sighed, "But you know that girl is a little whacked," he said.

"Are you agreeing with Yamato that she did something?" Sora asked looking at him shocked.

"Well yes, why would Yamato risk everything for her when he is in love with Mimi," Taichi said trying to make a point.

"I get you but she was really upset she was crying like real tears and all," Sora said sounding a bit spectacle.

"I just know that she is bad news," Taichi said to her.

Sora felt faint a bit, "I need to get something to eat," she said.

"Are you still feeling sick?" Taichi asked worried.

"Yeah, my mom made a doctor's appointment for me this morning for next Tuesday," Sora said as she sat down at a table.

"That's good the sooner we find out what is wrong the better it is for you," Taichi said.

"You can come with me if you want?" Sora asked him.

Taichi smiled, " Of course I will come I will always be there with you no matter what," He said.

"Thank you Taichi," she said and kissed him.

"Stupid …bitch," Yamato said aloud then he began crying his emotions finally reaching a melting point, "It's not fair, I never slept with her….. She ruined my life and my relationship with Mimi," He said wiping his tears away.

That Evening…

Yamato was lying on his bed looking up at the ceiling thinking about Mimi, and all the happy moments they had together…

Yamato asked as the two were strolling through the park on a beautiful spring evening.

"Yeah Yamato," she said.

"I just wanted to give you this," he said and pulled out a velvet box.

Mimi gasped, oh my god a ring, she thought and opened the box, "Wow Yamato...this is so beautiful I love it so much!" she exclaimed and jumped into his arms.

"Here let me do the honors of putting it on," Yamato said she handed him the ring, which he put on her finger the two smiled at each other, and they began to kiss while the setting sun was glowing beautiful colors of yellow, orange and red.

Yamato remembered it like it was yesterday instead of a year ago. He smiled. Happily There were other times too…


"Yamato look what you did!" Mimi exclaimed wiping the snow the Yamato had thrown at her playfully.

"Oh sorry," He said.

Mimi grinned wickedly then picking up a mound of snow and formed it into a snowball and threw it a Yamato hitting him in the chest.

"Oh…so now who's asking for it," Yamato said teasingly, Mimi ran from him they played a while until Yamato tackled Mimi pinning her to the ground.

"I love you," Yamato said, Mimi smiled.

"I love you Yamato," She said. They kissed lightly.

Yamato eyes were rimed up with tears this time.

After he had gotten out of the hospital him Taichi, Sora and Mimi went out together, for the first time in 3 months.

"Sora would you like to dance?" Taichi offered her.

Yamato took Taichi's lead "Mimi?" he asked.

"I'd love too," they swayed gently to the music as he held her in my arms.

"Mimi I promise you I will never do anything to hurt you," I said that to her but I broke that promise, I didn't keep my promise I made to her.

Yamato let a few tears run down his cheeks. He tried to blink them back but couldn't.

Yamato sang softly, "I'm everything I am, because you loved me…." He closed his eyes,
"But there is still one thing the song doesn't have in it. That I still love you," He said crying himself to sleep.

Mimi looked at the ring he'd had given her a year ago. She took it off and put the ring back into the box; she went over to small envelope and placed the ring in its box and a letter in as well then sealed the envelope.

She went down stairs "Daddy?" she called.

"Yeah sweet heart," He answered her.

"Can you please send this by UPS?" she asked.

"Yeah sure honey, just place it by my briefcase," He said.

She placed it by the briefcase and went up stairs to bed. Climbing into bed and listened started to sing hum to a song, "I'm everything I am, Because you loved me…..."
