So here's the next chapter ;P

I was reading some Soul Eater drabbles recently and it inspired me to write another chapter for my Michi drabble :P I've already pre-planned most of the drabbles I write so it's usually just a matter of fully writing them out, haha.

So enjoy!

Our Moments

Chapter 3: From Cities to Cars

Turn Around

The sounds of New York City surrounded Mimi and buzzed through her ears, she walked breezily through the crowds of people bustling about. The babble of voices, cars, and music surrounded Mimi like a familiar and comforting cocoon.

Yet, all outside noises seemed to completely bounce off the young 20 year old. The only thing she cared about was the smooth, luring voice filtering through her cell phone and into her ear. Mimi smiled to herself, loving every second he spoke to her.

"So, what's up? What are you doing now?" Tai's voice asked. Mimi sighed and glanced around.

"Walking to Laura Petites to pick up some new work clothes," Mimi sighed. Tai chuckled.

"Shopping huh? Not surprised. So you got the job at that fashion thingy?" he asked. Mimi nodded, despite the fact that he wouldn't see it.

"Yeah! I'm just starting off as a stylist's assistant, but hopefully I'll move up in a few years!" Mimi giggled. "But enough about me, what are you doing? How is everyone?" she asked. She heard Tai shuffle on the other end.

"Oh, we're all okay. It's pretty normal over here. Everyone's still in school and working hard," Tai mumbled. Mimi grinned.

"Are you working hard?" she asked slyly. Tai huffed.

"Of course I am!" he retorted. "I'll have you know I'm the MVP on my Uni Soccer Team!" Mimi smiled and rolled her eyes.

"Well of course you are, so you're still playing soccer? Are you studying anything else?" she asked.

"Mm, yeah. I'm studying business as well," Tai said. Mimi raised her eyebrows.

"Oh really? That sounds unlike you," she said. She could tell that Tai had grinned.

"Oh please, I've grown up a lot since I last saw you!" Tai joked. Mimi laughed lightly, but soon her smile turned into a small frown.

"I guess, it has been a while since I last saw you," she murmured. Tai paused on the other end.

"Yeah… but we'll see each other soon," he said quickly. Mimi snorted.

"How? We're both in the middle of our first semesters, when will we have time to visit?" she mumbled. Tai shrugged on the other end.

"Don't worry Meems, I'll make it happen," he said cheekily.

"Jeez, how can you be so confident?" Mimi said rolling her eyes. Tai just laughed. Suddenly Mimi swelled with the urge to want to see his face. She clenched her phone tighter and bit her bottom lip. "Ahhh! Dammit I want to see you!" she burst out, whining. Tai laughed again.

"Really? You miss me?"

"Yes!"

"You want to see me?"

"yesssss!"

"Turn around."

And then he hung up. Mimi paused. Re-playing what he just said. What? Turn around? Mimi stared at her phone for a second and stopped walking. She turned around to see a wave of people walking towards her down the street. The all passed by , slightly bumping her sometimes. Mimi furrowed her eyebrows. Turn around? But there was nothing there…

She stood up on her tip toes to see past people and her eyes glazed over everyone's faces. Suddenly a tanned, grinning face appeared through the crowds of people and Mimi's heart flew up into her throat. Her eyes widened and she sucked in a breath.

His hair was a lot shorter since she'd last seen him, maybe about two thirds of it had been hacked off and all he had now was short spiked brown locks. But his face, his eyes, his smile was the same. Mimi brought a hand to her mouth. Tai chuckled and waltzed over to her. He picked her up by the waist in one big swoop and spun her around once. Mimi yelped in surprised but immediately fell into him and wrapped her arms around his neck.

And wide smile broke and across both of their faces as they breathed in each other's scents.

"Told you I'd figure it out!" Tai teased. Mimi just laughed and hugged him tighter.

Tai smiled wide, flashing his cheeky, absolutely adorable smile. Mimi sighed, closing her eyes. She could get used to this.

Games

Mimi clicked the front door open and shoved the silver key back into her purse. She sighed and shoved the door open with help from her shoulder. She was immediately surrounded by a foreign smell…his smell. The house was grey and dreary, just like the rainy weather outside. Mimi shuffled inside and dropped her purse and slipped of her boots. She padded into the main living room and raised an eyebrow at the defeated blob of flesh stretched out on the couch.

"Meems? Is that you?" Tai's croaky sic voice called out. Mimi rolled her eyes.

"Yeah I'm here, I decided to come see how you were doing, I brought some meds," she said and wandered back over to her purse to get said medicine. Tai propped himself up slightly to see her coming back over before he gave up and flopped back down into the cushions.

"I didn't tell you to come you know…" he mumbled. Mimi read over the instructions on the bottle as she replied.

"Yeah well it's better than staying here by yourself. Whenever anyone is sick it's nice to be taken care of by someone," she said.

"I could've just waited for my mom to come home," Tai grumbled. Mimi wandered into the kitchen and found a glass and filled it with cold water from the fridge.

"Just deal with it, I'm already here," she huffed, getting annoyed. Tai stayed silent. Mimi walked back over to him and sat on the couch beside him. She held out two small white pills and the glass of water.

"Here, take these, knowing you, you probably haven't taken anything today have you?" she said. Tai looked away guiltily and took the pills. He downed them in two gulps of water and Mimi took the glass back and set it on the side table beside the couch. Mimi turned back and finally noticed the small sheen of sweat on Tai's face and neck. She frowned and raised her soft pale hand to his forehead. Her eyes widened.

"Oh my god you're burning up Tai!" she exclaimed. Tai shrugged.

"Yeah, people usually do when they are sick," he mumbled. Mimi frowned.

"Change into something else so you cool down, I'll go get a wet cloth," she said and sat up, causing Tai to bounce lightly. Tai followed her with his eyes and finally sat up. Mimi grabbed a washcloth and wet it with icy water. She got a small bowl and filled it with more cold water so she could re soak the cloth once it got warm. She turned around but stopped in her tracks, almost dropping the bowl.

Tai had stripped off his shirt and chucked it on the floor, settling back into the couch cushions. His chest was pretty toned due to his soccer playing and his tanned skin glistened in the sun. Mimi's eyes raked over the flat plains of his chest and stomach and her face became warm.

"What? Stop staring." Tai said, cutting through Mimi's trance like a knife. Mimi frowned and brought the bowl over to the side table before she almost dropped it again.

"Well you can't just take off your shirt and expect me not to stare!" she countered. Tai raised an eyebrow.

"So you like what you see?" he asked. Mimi turned pink and avoided his gaze, folding the cloth into a rectangle.

"And what if I do?"

"Sorry, but I'm not into you that way," Tai said bluntly, resting his hands behind his head. This irked Mimi.

"Who said I was?" she said in annoyance. Tai closed his eyes and shrugged.

"From my point of view it seems that way," he replied bordly. Mimi snorted.

"I wouldn't fall for you no matter how hard you tried," she scoffed. Tai peeked at her through one open eye.

"Oh really?" he wondered. Mimi nodded determinedly. Tai propped himself up slightly and looked at her fully, his lips tugging into a small smirk.

"Fine, I'll make a bet, if I can't make you fall for me by the time you leave, you win," he said. Mimi paused and stared at him.

"Why would you make such a bet?"

"Because I'm bored."

"You're horrible," Mimi frowned. Tai grinned. Mimi sighed, "well I'd like to see you try and fail anyway," Mimi said slyly. She so had this in the bag. She lifted the wet, cool cloth and placed it on Tai's forehead. Suddenly one of Tai's big hands grabbed her wrist. Mimi squeaked in surprise.

Tai held her wrist lightly and brought the soft skin to his lips. He then began trailing soft kisses around her wrist then, up the inside of her arm. Mimi gasped quietly and her face heated up in embarrassment. Her brain began to fuzz over but she collected herself quickly and tried to pull her arm away. Tai noticed her resistance and griped her arm tighter.

He then used what little strength he had and pulled her in one swift move, making her land underneath him as he shifted above her. With both hands on either side of her, one still gripping her arm, and knees on either side of her thighs he hovered over her. Mimi froze in shock.

Tai lowered his face and began trailing more kisses on her shoulder towards her neck and his hands roamed up and down her arms. His fingers then trailed down the smooth flatness of her stomach and hips. Mimi was so surprised and in shock that she didn't know how to react. She had never done this sort of thing before…and she was sure Tai hadn't either. So why…why was he so good at this?

Mimi held down a sigh of pleasure and quickly found her voice. "What are you doing?" she said, a bit shakily. She scolded herself for sounding so silly. She felt Tai grin against the skin on her neck. He nibbled lightly which made Mimi gasp. He pulled back and looked at her face. She was bright pink and her eyes had become hazy. She stared back silently into his deep, handsome chocolate brown eyes. His hair was sweaty and plastered to the side of his face. His skin was extremely hot but she was unsure if it was her reaction to him or just because he was sick. Her skin felt like it was on fire and her brain was heating up even more with every second that passed with him touching or kissing her.

Tai gazed at her for a second longer before he finally replied. "I'm winning the bet." Then he dipped down and captured her lips with his. Mimi sucked in a breath through her nose as his lips melted into hers. In that moment she finally broke and gave in, kissing him back.

When she gave in, he noticed and their kiss became more passionate. Tai's tongue lightly touched her lip before she paused, and finally gave him access. He dipped his tongue in and played with hers. Mimi was completely lost. She couldn't think anymore and just went on instinct. But…oh he was such a good kisser!

They made out for a minute longer before breaking apart, gasping for breath. But they didn't continue. Instead they just looked at each other, contemplating what they'd both just done. It seemed like hours had passed that they looked at each other, reading each other's eyes and faces. When only about a minute had passed Tai finally opened his lips to speak in his groggy voice.

"Mimi…why did you really come over today?" he asked. Mimi paused before replying.

"Why did you call out my name first when I came in, even though you didn't know if it was really me?" Mimi whispered. Tai hesitated.

"Answer my question first," he said.

"Because I was worried, like any friend," she said.

"Why?

"Because I'm your friend,"

Tai gazed at her a moment longer. He searched her eyes for something, but she didn't know if he'd found it for he sighed and his posture broke slightly, his back sagging down.

"I see…" he murmured before finally succumbing to his illness and fainting on top of her. Mimi froze. Collecting her thoughts she shifted out from underneath him and rolled him onto his side. She flopped onto the floor beside him and stayed still. He must have been using up a lot of strength just to stay conscious for a while if it got to point where he fainted in the end. Mimi quietly turned her head and her eyes rolled over his sleeping face. He hadn't even answered her question…she frowned.

" almost had me there…"

Unattainable

Tai and Mimi sat comfortably at a small coffee café just around the corner from Tai's apartment. The air was nice and peaceful and Mimi's pretty light blue dress swayed in the breeze. Tai was leaned over, resting his elbows on the table, hands clasped and leaning towards Mimi, smiling. Mimi was leaning forward as well and had her hands clasped together with her chin resting on top of them.

They had been there for a while, laughing and chatting happily. Soaking in the beautiful day and the happy aura they both felt.

"So, what kind of venue do you want?" Mimi asked.

"Hmm, maybe something traditional? But really nice, but not too formal and stuffy," Tai wondered. Mimi perked.

"Oh, they have some nice buildings downtown that have some western architecture in them and like, big chandeliers and red carpets and a ballroom, it's very nice," she said. Tai smiled.

"Yeah, maybe something like that or just something normal, something that means something to the both of us," Tai said, blushing lightly. Mimi smiled shyly.

"Yeah, that's good as well," She mumbled. "Do you want flowers?"

"I guess, girls like that stuff right? Lots of white or red flowers everywhere," Tai shrugged. Mimi lit up.

"Oh that would be beautiful! And with candles!" she swooned. Tai chuckled.

"That's sounds good then,"

"So what do you think the dress looks like?" Mimi asked slyly. Tai cocked his head.

"I dunno, white?" he said. Mimi rolled her eyes.

"Of course it's white silly!" she said, Tai shrugged again.

"Isn't it supposed to be a surprise?" he asked. Mimi nodded.

"Yep! I just wanted to know what you thought it looked like, but it's a surprise! You'll be totally floored! It's gorgeous!" Mimi squealed. Tai smiled to himself.

"Anything will look pretty on the girl wearing it, it doesn't matter what it looks like," he murmured lovingly. Mimi smiled warmly. She reached over and cupped her hand over his and squeezed.

"This wedding, it will be beautiful," she said, gazing at him. Tai grinned back.

"Yeah, I can't wait," he sighed. Mimi retracted her hand and just then a figure strode up next to them in a hurry.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry I'm late guys!" Sora panted. Mimi fell silent and hid her hands in her lap. Sora slide out her chair and sat down, hanging her purse on the side. She leaned over and gave Tai a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Did I miss anything?" she said brightly. Tai smiled at her.

"Just planning some things," Tai teased. Sora smiled and scooched closer to him. He kissed her forehead and took her hand in his, squeezing it. Mimi looked down at the table. Her chatty mood from before had gone.

Sora picked up the café menu and scanned over the items, Tai leaned over and helped her pick. Since they weren't looking anymore Mimi lifted her gaze and saw the sun shine brightly on an object on Sora's left hand.

The engagement ring that Tai had given the red-head shined brightly in the sun and seemed to stab daggers into Mimi's heart. Mimi stared at the ring. Sora's ring.

And her heart turned cold once again.

Reality

Mimi sat alone on the field in the park one warm spring day. She sat on a small pink blanket with her book and her ipod beside her. The bright green grass tickled her legs where they stuck out from the edge of the blanket and the warm sun beamed down onto her pale skin. Kids were running around happily playing games and couples sat snuggling on their own blankets.

It was a beautiful day…but Mimi was not happy at all. Her eyes glazed over all the other couples happily enjoying each other's company. She scrunched her nose. Lucky ducks. Mimi looked beside her where she wished there sat another person. But no. she was alone.

She had always watched these romance movies and they seemed so dream like. Love stories and things like that don't exist, at least not for Mimi. Oh no. reality, overall, sucked. Reality was the thing that brought you down from your dreams and scrunched you into the floor and made you realize how worthless and alone you actually are.

Mimi was never going to get a boyfriend. Or love. Ha! It seemed so far away, yet that was all she wanted, such a simple thing. She dreamed about what it would be like to have a boyfriend for days and hours. But once again reality always came waltzing back to knock her down.

Mimi's gaze turned into a glare at the couples. She sighed in annoyance and flopped down onto her back, closing her eyes. Maybe some sleep would help her waste her time and get away. She lay comfortably for a while until a dark shadow blocked the light coming through her eyelids. But before Mimi could open her eyes to see who it was two rough hands lightly covered her eyes.

"Guess who!" a male voice rang out excitedly. Mimi raised an eyebrow.

"Tai?" she wondered. The voice laughed boyishly.

"Bingo!" he cheered and retracted his hands. Mimi sat up and he plopped down beside her. "How do you get it every time?" he wondered.

"Because you're the only one that does that," she said. Tai laughed and scratched the back of his head.

"Oh yeah I guess that's right," he admitted. Mimi cracked a smile.

"So what're you doing all alone?" Tai asked. Mimi's smile was gone in a second.

"Nothing….absolutely nothing," she grumbled. Tai raised an eyebrow and cocked his head to the side.

"…well what are you doing later? Wanna go to the movies? I'm bored and everyone else is busy," he frowned. Mimi ignored the fact that she seemed like a last resort if he'd already asked everyone else and turned to face him.

"The movies? Why?" she asked. Tai shrugged.

"Cause I wanna go with you, why not?" he said simply. Mimi turned pink.

"Um, I guess so, is anyone else coming or is it…just…us two," she asked nervously. Tai rolled his head around once, hmm'ing for a second.

"Just us two," he said finally.

"Could no one else come as well?" she asked. Tai looked at her seriously.

"Why do other people have to come? If it's just us two it's fine," he said matter-a-factly. Mimi laughed lightly to ease his seriousness.

"No, that's not what I meant. It's just, if it's just us two…doesn't…doesn't that seem like a date?" she mumbled, getting shy as she spoke. Tai shifted his gaze to the ground.

"…that's not a problem is it?" he murmured. Mimi's eyes widened.

"Wait, so are you asking…?" she said, drifting off. Tai looked up at her shyly, meeting his eyes with hers.

"I want you to go on a date to the movies with me, is that okay?" he asked. Mimi turned bright red. She paused before a big smile spread across her face.

"Yes! Of course I will!" she replied gleefully. Tai smiled as well, relieved.

"So…then, does that mean you like me?" Tai asked. Mimi became embarrassed and fidgeted with her hands.

"Well, I mean, yes, for awhile now," she replied. Her heart was beating so hard she could hear it pounding in her head. She glanced up and saw Tai grin.

"Me too, I like you too," he said, then he leaned over and brushed his lips lightly over hers. He watched her close her eyes in anticipation and grinned. She felt him smile and sucked in a breath, waiting for the kiss. But instead Tai leaned upwards and lightly pecked her forehead.

She let out a gasp of a breath and her eyes fluttered open. But then…

She was gazing up at the bright sky. She blinked a few times to collect her thoughts. Wasn't she just with Tai? Where did he go?

She propped herself up on her elbows and looked around. She was still in the park, on her pink blanket. She looked beside herself and her chest sank. Tai was not there. He never had been there. She'd been sleeping this whole time.

Tears threatened to spill and Mimi groaned in frustration, slamming her back down into the ground again.

Yes, reality truly sucked.

Driving Lessons

Mimi's heart was in her throat as she dug her perfect nails into the soft car seat. She was hanging on for dear life and her eyes were stuck wide open. Her body was frozen and she was scared to death.

So basically…she was teaching Tai how to drive western style.

Tai had the goofiest grin on his face as he drove around the parking lot close to Mimi's apartment. Luckily it was empty and most of the residents had driven off to work. But there was still the odd cars still parked which Tai seemed inclined to zoom as close as possible to without actually hitting them and giving Mimi the fright of her life.

"T-Tai! Come on it's not that hard! Just drive how you normally do!" Mimi shrieked. Tai laughed at her chalk white face.

"I'm trying! Everything is so backwards, I'm not used to it," he teased, pouting. Mimi managed to lung her hand out and turn the wheel at the last second before they narrowly missed a parked van.

"Okay! Stop!" she said and Tai slammed on the breaks. They both sat silently. Mimi practically hyper ventilating and Tai just sitting their peacefully with a dorky grin.

"I think I'm doing quite well,"

"Oh shut up." Mimi growled. Tai's smile just grew wider. Mimi finally calmed down and let out a huge breath.

"Okay, for now, lest just drive straight, and then stop," she said. Tai nodded.

"okie dokie," he hummed and pressed his foot down on the gas. The car lurched forward and Tai hit the brakes, stopping it, and then hit the gas and it lunged forward again. Mimi yelped as they were lurched back a forth constantly.

"Hey! What are you doing? Can't you even drive straight?" Mimi panicked, being lurched back hard into her seat again. Tai shrugged.

"I am!" he said. Mimi groaned.

"Okay, just keep your foot on the gas and try some turns," she said cautiously. Tai nodded and slammed the gas. They ripped forward and he began turning the wheel frantically. They were tossed around like dolls and rolled this way and that. Mimi shrieked again and grabbed the door handle for dear life. At this rate he would flip them over!

"Oh my god! Tai!" she screamed.

"What?" he yelled back.

"Fuck! Just drive slow and straight for once!" she screamed out, afraid for her life at this point. Immediately Tai smirked and straightened out the car and it coasted perfectly through the parking lot. Slow and steady it didn't go near any cars and Tai turned, and stopped, and paused, and drove perfectly in circles around the all the cars. Mimi stopped and her eyes widened.

"You…" she said shakily.

"Hm?"

"You could drive perfectly…this whole time?" she said in shock. Tai laughed boyishly.

"Maybe?" he said shrugging lightly. Mimi turned bright red and whipped to face him. She punched him in the shoulder, but not too hard. She hit him over and over and Tai laughed, moving to avoid her assaulting arms.

"You jerk! You're the worst! Go to hell, jerk!" she wailed. Tai laughed at her hissy fit. He reached out and ruffled her hair.

"Oh come on, it was fun, you should've seen your face," Tai sang gleefully. Mimi boiled up and huffed, slouching down and crossing her arms. Tai pulled out of the parking lot and down the road. "So, where do you want to go?" he said happily. Mimi glared at him.

"Nowhere with a jerk like you," she grumbled. Tai smiled.

"Okay, to the mall we go!" he said and pressed the gas pedal down to speed down the long New York streets. Mimi blushed lightly and hid a small smile.

Jerk.

Okay so that's it! :P might be in the mood for another chapter real soon… :P lucky you.

There's a couple sadder ones, just cause it' gets repetitive with so many fluffy stories one after the other. Five more will be coming up soon (I promise this time) so be ready!

Please review! I appreciate your input
