Well I have good news. I've finished school, so now I'm more available for story updates. No it's not what you're thinking. I don't just sit in my room obsessed with my computer, I actually have a life.

Well I'm currently waiting on my boyfriend to finish exams and I'm also waiting for more shifts at work. However this is going to take another week at the very least, so I have plenty of free time to write this thing!

This kind of makes me wish my friends didn't work, then I'd actually seem like I had a life. Well enough of my babbling, and on the chapter...

"Matt! Matt! Matt for God's sake STOP!" A couple of students turned to stare at Tai as he rushed over to Matt. His face was red, his breathing ragged and his eyes filled with fury.

"Why the hell didn't you wait for me Ishida? You know we have this first class together. Why the hell did you leave me! Answer me!"

Matt stopped walking and turned around. He smirked at Tai. He loved how easily vexed he actually was. Matt casually ran a hand through his hair before shrugging his shoulders and saying, "For the crack."

Tai's nostrils flared up and lips turned into a scowl, he looked as though he was about to hit Matt; But in a second all this was gone and Tai let out a small chuckle. There was no way in hell could Tai stay mad at Matt, even for a second. He knew Matt's humour, well of course he did, it was exactly the same as his own. Matt was his best friend. No strike that, Matt was practically his brother.

"You know you're evil right. Like completely and utterly evil?" Tai said with a grin. Matt grinned back.

"Tell me something I don't know...Actually tell me about that girl, Mina or whatever her name is. I definitely don't know her yet."

Mina, Mina? Who the hell is Mina? How do I know a Mina? Is anyone I've spoken to actually called Mina? Tai was trying to figure out who the hell Mina was when Matt interrupted his thoughts.

"You know the brown haired girl? The one you were with this morning." Tai suddenly smiled. Oh, he must mean Mimi. It's like he can read my mind sometimes. Good job too, I had no idea who he was on about.

"You mean Mimi right?" Tai asked, and Matt nodded at him. "Well I met her this morning after I accidentally sent her flying. This is her first day and she seemed pretty cool so I invited her to join us. You know we could always do with a new addition to the group. Throw a new cat amongst the pigeons."

Matt snorted. "Ha, I think throw a new pigeon amongst the cats would be a more appropriate phrase. Do you even remember what happened when Yolie joined our group?"

Tai's face suddenly flushed red. "Hey, that completely wasn't my fault man. How was I supposed to know she couldn't handle the banter? I didn't mean to make her cry! I apologised to her, I sent her chocolates, flowers and she eventually forgave me."

Matt started to laugh. Oh how glad he was that Tai was his best friend. Anyone else would definitely not provide this many laughs a day. The boy was like a walking joke.

"Well let's just hope this Mimi can handle the 'banter'." Matt said. He started to walk again with Tai at his side. Suddenly he stopped walking and turned to face Tai.

"Wait a second; did you say you sent Mimi flying?"

Tai's face flushed red once again. "Um well yeah... It was only an accident...I didn't see her until I was on top of her..." Tai replied sheepishly. Matt let out a small chuckle.

"Oh Tai, you're about as graceful as an elephant in ballet shoes! Let's just hope she sticks around despite this, I'd like something new to look at. I'm bored of Sora."

Tai's eyes flashed dangerously. "Matt. Sora is my girlfriend..." Matt smirked and quickly cut him off, "I was only joking Yagami, you know I don't see Sora in that way. Plus I only like girls I can pursue and what with Sora being your girlfriend I think that makes it pretty damn difficult for me to do that."

Tai let out a sigh of relief before his face suddenly grew fearful. He'd just comprehended what Matt had said. "Oh Matt don't. She seems a really nice girl, don't scare her off!"

"Oh stop worrying. In a few weeks she'll be begging to have me anyway..."

With that Matt walked off, leaving Tai shaking his head at what his friend had just said. Before realising that Matt had yet again left him and he had to jog, again, to catch Matt up.

Lunch came around quicker than any of them could have expected. Well especially for Mimi. After their history class, Sora and Mimi both had a free period and it was during this that Sora had taken to changing Mimi's uniform. It hadn't taken much effort to change, clearly she had done this a few times; and for some strange reason Sora happened to have a sewing kit in her bag. Now at the start of lunch Mimi was currently in a cubicle changing into her altered uniform.

Mimi was suddenly feeling nervous as she felt the air on the top of her thighs and the snugness of the shirt and jumper. As she was pulling the blazer on Sora called out,

"Come on Meems. Are you ready? I'm starving!"

"One second Sor."

Mimi breathed out and stepped out of the cubicle. Sora, who had been sitting on the floor, suddenly sprang up when she caught sight of Mimi. Grabbing her hands and pulling her forward, Sora began to spin the girl around. After a few seconds Sora let go of Mimi's hands and stood back to appreciate her work.

"Oh Mimi!" Sora exclaimed clapping her hands together. Mimi who was currently trying to keep herself from stumbling with dizziness looked up at Sora nervously.

"Yes?"

"Mimi I must say, you look...HOT! Like completely drop dead gorgeous! I must say either you're the most gorgeous girl in the entire country, I've completely outdone myself."

"I'd say the latter." Mimi said sheepishly as she began to approach the full length mirror that occupied a corner of the room. She was completely taken aback by her own reflection. Gosh, I do look good. This uniform actually looks amazing. Mimi threw a glance at Sora, who was intently staring at her reflection in a mirror above the hand basin. Oh I wish I looked liked Sora though. Man, she's so gorgeous. I don't think I've seen anyone that pretty before.

As the winter winds litter London with lonely hearts, all the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms...

Mimi's thoughts were abruptly halted as Sora answered her phone.

"Tai...What...Yes we'll be like 2 minutes... We're just in the bathroom...No Tai, we're just checking our faces...Gosh you're such a pervert! Bye Tai!"

Mimi turned to look at Sora who grinned at her.

"We're being summoned."

"Tai?" Mimi mentally slapped herself for asking such an obvious question, of course it was Tai. Sora however didn't seem to see a problem with Mimi's question and smiled.

"Yes it was Tai. But he isn't the one summoning us. Apparently Matt is. We always wait till we're all together before we go get lunch and he's starving. So we have to go now or endure the wrath of Ishida the Terrible!"

Mimi started to laugh; she had immediately understood the play on words. She picked up her floral backpack from the floor and swung it over her shoulder. She and Sora exited the bathroom. As they walked down the corridor Mimi suddenly felt bashful. She could feel the eyes upon her. Scanning from the top of her head to the bottom of her feet, and she could hear the murmurs from boys around her.

"Who is that?"..."Wow, she is hot?"..."I want to know what classes she is in so I can join".

Mimi felt her face grow hot with both bashfulness and excitement. At her side Sora was walking tall, eyes determined and a smile on her face. The girl was full of confidence and it didn't seem as though anything would make this girl feel embarrassed. I wish I wasn't easily embarrassed. Then I wouldn't constantly look like a beetroot.

"So Mimi. You have to tell me you got your backpack. It's gorgeous!"

Sora squealed. Mimi giggled at Sora.

" I got it in America. It's from a shop called Urban Outfitters. You know you can borrow it anytime you want. I've got loads of things from there that I think you'd like. Well hell, I think everybody would like! By the way Sora, you know your ringtone, who's that song by?"

"Oh it's by an English band. Mumford and Sons. Maybe you've heard of them? Well I have their album, you can borrow it anytime. Actually it's in my car, so you can borrow it later on!" Mimi squealed and Sora looked at her with a soft smile. She linked her arms through Mimi's and made a bold statement. "You know Meems I think you're going to be one of the best friends I've ever had."

Mimi's face lit up. She felt the same. She felt as though she'd known Sora all her life rather than a few hours.

"Sor, I feel exactly the same!" The girls both giggled and proceeded to walk to the cafeteria.

"My god where the hell are they? I'm absolutely starving!" Matt growled savagely. The rest of the group looked at Matt apprehensively. When Matt was hungry he wasn't the nicest of people.

"Oh Matt chill out. They'll be here in a minute. Just relax and enjoy our company." The voice came from opposite Matt. A boy, almost identical to Matt was sitting cross legged on his chair, focussing his attention on his phone. He hadn't even looked up to see if it actually was Matt that had spoken.

"You know Tk, for my brother, you don't know me at all. So shut the hell up and go back to texting." Matt growled. Tk rolled his eyes. Matt really needs to "get some". He's been grouchy for the past two weeks. Everyone might think this is because he's hungry, but I know he's frustrated.

"FINALLY!" Matt shouted. The group looked up and saw Sora enter the cafeteria and make her way over to their table.

"Hi guys." Sora grinned. The group smiled back at her, well all except Matt.

"Where the hell have you been? I'm wasting away here and you're playing dress up in the bathroom..." Matt's rant was cut off by a new voice next to them.

"Hi everyone!"

The group all turned and gasped."MIMI?" Tai asked in disbelief, his jaw on the floor at this moment. Sora giggled and walked over to him. She gently pushed his mouth and he shook his head.

"So, I altered Mimi's uniform for her. Don't you think she fits in with us now?"

"Sora you've done well. Mimi you look HOT!" A high pitched voice squealed. Mimi glanced at where it came from. A girl with extremely short pixie crop hair and a beautiful face at spoken. She had brown hair, glittery brown eyes and a tanned face. Hmm she looks a lot like Tai. I wonder if they're related. Mimi thought to herself.

"Why thank you...Err I'm sorry, I don't actually know your name." Mimi told her truthfully. The girl smiled.

"Oh don't worry about the apology; I'd be surprised if you did. We've all been extremely rude and not introduced ourselves. I'm Kari, and I'm Tai's sister."

Kari then proceeded to introducing everyone else, pointing them out as she said their names.

"Davis." Davis was fairly tanned and had wild purple/brown hair. He actually looked pretty similar to Tai. Mimi noticed he too was gorgeous. Well that was a given, they all were.

"Yolei." A girl with purple hair gave her a wide smile. She had glasses on but for some reason Mimi knew that if she took those off she definitely wouldn't look as good. The glasses worked on her.

"Ken." Mimi was taken aback by Ken. He had straight blue/black hair and piercing blue eyes. The boy seemed to ooze intelligence and that was probably why Mimi was so surprised. However the boy next to him seemed to ooze it too. He had short red hair, similar to Sora's and large dark eyes. They were framed with long eyelashes. Mimi couldn't help but think he looked sweet. Like honey. However the boy seemed to have his attention on a laptop in front of him.

"The boy with the computer is Izzy." Izzy held up two fingers in a response but didn't glance up. Mimi giggled.

"This is Tk." A blonde boy next to Kari looked up at Mimi and gave her a huge smile. Mimi's eyes grew. He was almost identical to Matt, well the part of Matt that she had seen. His hair was exactly the same, the most gorgeous blonde colour she had ever seen and glittery blue eyes.

"Hey gorgeous girl. Nice to have a new member to our group. Glad you're here." Tk said and Mimi immediately felt her heart flutter. This boy was beyond sweet. She just wanted to cuddle him like he was her little brother.

"Anyway Teeks, moving on. You clearly already know Tai and Sora. So then, last but not least is our resident grouch. Matt Ishida." Kari said happily. Mimi turned to look at Matt and her eyes met his. He had the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen. They were cobalt blue and seem to sparkle in the light. Okay, so people say eyes are the windows to the soul and Matt's eyes are definitely giving me a huge, non-curtained view of his. Mimi thought in a daze. She didn't seem to be able to pull her gaze away from him and neither did he from her. Eventually though he blinked and turned his face away.

"So enough with the introductions Kari. Let's go get some food before I kill someone. Tai." Matt growled and Tai got up and walked beside his best friend. Sora rolled her eyes.

"And there goes his little lapdog." She said reproachfully, as she watched the two walk towards the food counter. "Coming Mimi?" Mimi nodded and got up. She slipped her arm through Sora's and the girls followed Tai and Matt giggling.

The rest of the group shook their heads. Aside from Izzy, the older ones definitely were different from the younger ones. They liked to be in pairs whereas the younger ones preferred the huge group.

"Come on guys, or Matt will eat all of food." Tk muttered and they too walked to the food counter.

Tai and Matt were at the end of the counter talking quietly as Sora and Mimi were not that far away.

"Mimi looks really good. Her legs, my god, they are perfect. Hmm she's also quite filled out. And that face. Well all in all I definitely wouldn't kick her out of bed." Matt muttered.

"Oh Matt c'mon. You'll ruin the poor girl. Look just leave her alone, try and be her friend okay? She seems so nice and I want her to stick around." Tai said. He sounded as if he'd given this speech a thousand times and he seemed tired of it.

"Ha be careful now Tai. Saying you want her to stick around like that is giving me the impression that you want a try." Tai glared at Matt and he winked back at him. "I'm sorry alright. But don't worry, I won't ruin anything. Look if you're that worried I won't try anything okay? I'll just be a friend to her? Deal?"

"But Matt, it's you. What's the catch?"

"Catch? There's no catch." Matt said. He tried to sound innocent, but it sounded extremely mischievous instead. Tai caught this.

"With you there's always a catch."

"Well Tai. I said I wouldn't try anything. But that doesn't mean she won't try anything." Matt winked at Tai and smirked. With that he picked up his tray and began to walk back to their table. Tai could hear the whispers that followed Matt.

"Matt is so good-looking!...Oh what I wouldn't do to spend one night in Matt Ishida's bed...He's hot...Even though he's a heartbreaker I'd still risk my heart for one night with him".

Tai shook his head in utter disbelief. Matt held so much power at this school and he knew Mimi wouldn't stand a chance to his charm. Mimi, let's just hope you know how to play the game as well as Matt does.

Okay so that was really, really long! I may have gone overboard, but I got over excited writing it and I just couldn't stop.

So my last reviews actually made me smile loads and feel really good about this story! They inspired me to continue. You know who you are, so a very special thanks goes out to you both!

I hope you all like this chapter, because I really do!

So a few reviews would be nice. I'd be ever so grateful :D anyway, happy reading!
