Thanks for all reviews. I put a flashback about Matt and Mimi in this chapter. It's kinda lame, so I'm sorry.
I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Chapter 4: The Nightmare Begins
All the digidestined chose a room – the rooms only had two beds each. Yolei and Kari got the same room. Tai asked Sora to share his room – he wanted to keep an eye on her. She hesitantly accepted it, only to Matt's jealousy and anger. Mimi stayed with Izzy, Matt with TK. Davis got the same room as Ken, and Cody as Joe. They didn't even notice some unusual stuff around the house, and Kari was thankful for that. They all got their swimming clothes on and headed to the pool. Everyone except the red haired girl, who remained laid on her bed. Eyes red from crying.
"Where's Sora?"
"I don't know. I think she's inside"
"Go talk to her, big brother"
"I will"
Matt made his way inside.
The others continued heading to the pool until something caught Yolei's attention.
"Oh my god! Someone was hanged!"
"What?!"
"Where?"
'Over there!"
Everyone looked up and started screaming and running.
"I told you this place is haunted Hikari!"
"Well it's too late for that Taichi"
Sora was facing the wall in front of her. She didn't want to be bothered. Matt carefully tiptoed to her.
"What are you doing here?" She asked in a harsh tone.
"I need to talk to you" He got closer.
"I don't want to" She wiped the tears away.
Matt laid down next to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. Sora's body shivered, and Matt held her tighter. Sora closed her eyes, so did Matt.
"I'm sorry Sora"
"Sorry isn't going to fix it, is it?"
"You're right. It isn't" He paused. Her sobs were low but loud enough for him to hear. He started regretting what he did. "But there's something else. Something bigger. Something greater. This. Us, Sora"
"Matt" She said his name softly.
"What we have… I would never throw it away. I would never trade it. I…"
"I love you" Sora sighed.
"Sora"
"I don't care how long it may take for you to say it back, and quite frankly, it doesn't matter. This is how I feel about you, Yama"
She waited for his reply, but it never came. "I've always known it. It was just a matter of time until we get together" She turned to him. "I've always loved you Matt"
There was something on her that caught his attention. She was prettier than ever. More beautiful than he's ever seen her. Her eyes held such passion and emotion he found it hard to look away from her. He knew from that moment his heart and mind were in the same place, at the same time.
"I love you Sora. Though I don't show it as much as I should, I do. I love you more than you'll ever know"
"Yamato. I am so -"
"Shhh" He silenced her with his index finger.
After making sure he got her to stop rambling, he slowly leaned towards her and delicately captured her lips with his own, leading her to a deep, passionate kiss. Sora hesitated at first but gave in after a while. She was giving herself completely, as her love life knows way too well. Sora is known for throwing herself into unhealthy relationships. Will this be another one? She certainly hopes not. She's way into Matt to consider this relationship a failure. Tai walked inside to call for Sora, but through the half opened door, he saw his two best friends sharing a kiss and walked away. Sora broke the kiss.
"Why did you cheat on me?"
"Sora, please"
Matt turned his face away from her. Sora cupped it with her warm hands and turned it back. Her brown eyes met his baby blue ones. The eyes that held so much wisdom. They seemed to have so much intelligence yet they looked liked they were just waiting for someone to walk by and break his heart. That was his weakness – and Sora knew that.
"I want to know. I need you to tell me"
"Sor, please. It's bad enough that I have to carry this through all my life. I don't want to tear your heart into pieces"
"More than it has already been?"
"Come on Sora"
"All I'm asking is for you to tell me why you did it. Was I a bad girlfriend? Did you get tired of me?"
"No!" Matt said firmly. "I could never get tired of you. And you're definitely not a bad girlfriend"
"Then why? Why would you cheat on me?"
"Okay. Do you really want to know?"
"Yes"
"Alright"
(Flashback)
"…And this sucks, your band is horrible!"
"And your dreams are stupid!"
"What?"
"You heard me"
"So my dreams are stupid huh? At least I have dreams Yamato!"
Takeru watched the whole argument in silence. He wasn't exactly sure how it got this way. It started as something harmless.
"Oh you're so delusional Sora"
"STOP! Stop exchanging offenses! Both of you! Look at how stupid you are. You are 16. 16! Stop ruining each other's dreams. You guys are ruining what you have with it"
"TK" Sora shook her head. "I'm sorry. My mom wants me to go home"
Sora made her way out. Matt followed her and closed the door behind him.
"So you meant what you said about my band huh?"
"Matt, let's drop it"
"No" He held her arm. "You insulted me"
"What now? You started it"
"No I didn't"
"You know, I put up with a lot of your damn crap"
"You did not say that"
"I did Matt. And I'm tired of being put behind your stupid band"
Their screams were so loud they could be heard from a certain distance. Takeru shook his head.
"These two are a helpless case"
"If you don't like it, let's get this over with"
"Fine!"
Sora walked away. The door right next to the Ishida's apartment opened.
"What happened?"
The sound of this voice made him turn around. A girl with pink hair and long length white boots came out.
"Hey Mimi. Sora and I were fighting"
"I saw that. Why?"
"I don't know really" Matt rubbed the back of his head. "I guess it was because she thinks my band means more than her"
"You guess?" Mimi looked at him in disbelief. "Matt"
"I know. I know" Matt walked to the balcony and looked down. He could see his girlfriend's figure walking towards her house. Mimi joined him.
"Sora"
"Matt, come here" She grabbed his hand and pulled him into a hug. "It's gonna be okay"
They broke away. Mimi stared at him with full eyes. He never saw her as attractive, but he saw a different side of her – a side he liked. For a while, he wondered what it'd be like to be Mimi's boyfriend. And that's when he kissed her.
"Matt. What were you doing?"
"I don't know. I just felt like it"
"What are we gonna do?
"I have no idea"
"But I do" Mimi stepped closer and kissed him again.
(End of Flashback)
"Oh my god!"
"I'm sorry baby"
"Sorry for what?"
"I cheated on you?"
"I forgive you"
"What?"
"I forgive you. I love you. I need you. I can't live without you. I need you, Yama"
"Sora"
"We are better than this. We were stronger than this. God, Matt I need you in my life for it to make sense"
Sora leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. Then wrapped her arms around him and embraced him.
"I'm so in love with you"
Sora let go of the hug and laid on the bed again. She then stared at Matt with lovely eyes. Matt felt his heart stop beating. Only Sora could cause this to him. He grabbed her face and kissed her full on the lips. Sora placed her hands on both sides of his face. She then buried her head on the pillow more. Matt leaned over Sora a bit more, so she was hidden from the view. He climbed on top of her as their kiss became more urgent. Right when things started getting hotter, they heard the others screaming.
"What is going on?"
"I have no idea" Matt pressed his lips against Sora's again.
Just as when their kiss became deep again, Tai came running into the room.
"There's a… OH MY GOD!"
Both Matt and Sora turned bright red. Matt slowly got off his girlfriend.
"Tai I can explain"
"What were you two doing? Or about to do?"
"We were patching things up"
"I'm sure you were. With saliva being exchanged"
"Tai!"
"What do you know anyway? That's what you do on relationships. You kiss your girl after everything's okay"
"I know that! But you were literally eating her Matt"
"SHUT UP TAI!"
"We thought no one would come in. We should have closed the door. What happened anyway?"
"This place is haunted"
"What?!"
"Yolei found a hanging body"
"Oh god!"
"I tokl Kari that we…"
Taichi was cut off by the power going off. Screamings were heard all over the house. There was something scarily terrifying on the wind blowing the leaves on that tree, which was shadowed on the curtains, illuminated by the moonlight.
Please review and comment. The next chapter will be up as soon as I can type it.
