Chapter 7: Sorato
Couple- Matt and Sora from Digimon 1-2
"Fashion design?"
"What? Is something wrong about that?" asked the redhead.
"Not at all, just that it seems so unlike you. Since you're Sora Takenouchi, the tomboy" said the blond dramatically.
"Like you've got any room to judge. I thought you were supposed to be the great Yamato Ishida, rock star, and yet you signed up for astronomy classes" retorted Sora.
"Hey, the music biz is tough, and I've got some interest in space" said Matt.
"Okay, so you went from rock star to moon rocks how?"
"Izzy got me this cool telescope for my birthday and I used it. Then I got this sudden interest in space"
"Alright, well then call me when you find out if we're alone in the universe"
"I think you know the answer to that" said Matt as he took a look at his digivice.
"…Yeah…" said Sora with a smile.
Hard to believe that just last month they were joking about their classes and now they weren't talking at all. It's not that being in college was keeping them busy; they just couldn't find anything to talk about anymore.
"I really wish you were here with me Biyomon" said Sora.
She was video chatting with her pink partner with the internet. The original plan was to bring their partners along for college but that was impossible now that no one knew that digimon actually existed and weren't just a card game and a television show.
"And I wish you could stay home" said Biyomon. "But it can't be helped like you said right?"
Sora nodded. "Yeah, but if Gennai hadn't erased everyone's memories of digimon, you could've come with us. I don't have that many people to talk to. Most of the guys are sexist and the girls are too prissy"
"What about your roommate? Ami Sato?"
"She's okay, but it would still help if you were-"
"Soooraaa!"
"Gotta go Biyomon, we'll talk later" said Sora shutting down the computer at the exact same time her roommate came in with her signature 'bad news' face.
"Oh no, did you and Kazuya-kun break up again?" asked Sora. Kazuya was Ami's on again, off again boyfriend.
"No"
"Did you fail an exam?"
"No"
"Did Asuko-sensei forget to greet you in the hallway?"
"No"
"Did you trip on something?"
"No"
Sora took back her earlier statement about Ami being okay. "Well spit it out woman!"
"Hana is hitting on Matt again"
Sora turned away and tried to act as if nothing was wrong. "So? We broke up. I don't care if every girl on campus flirts with him"
"Good because me and Kazuya really did break up and I was thinking of taking Matt for my own" said Ami cheerily.
Sora's eye twitched listening to this girl and her little fantasies. 'That little-!' "I'm pretty sure you would have a long wait then. I think every girl is lining up to ask him out" she said not bothering to keep the frustration and annoyance from her voice.
"Well it's not his fault he's so hot"
Finally, the frustration got to Sora and she got up and left. Once she was gone, Ami smirked. 'Phase one complete'
Outside the dormitories…
"I just wish she hadn't overreacted like that" said Matt.
"Well, girls are sensitive about that stuff" said an older male.
"I still love her but she's right, I can't express my feelings no matter what! Grah, why must I be cursed with this cool and aloof attitude!"
"Maybe you should sing your feelings to her"
"Huh?"
"Music is a form of self-expression. Maybe you can use that to express you love towards her. She'll probably take you back then"
Matt stared at his friend for a long time before everything clicked in his head. He jumped off his seat. "You're right! That's genius Joe, you're the best friend ever! I knew I could rely on you!"
"That's why they call me reliable old Joe" said Joe as Matt took off.
'Thanks Ami, now I hope this works' thought Matt as he pulled out his guitar and wlaked over to he redheaded girl sitting by herself reading a book.
"Sora?"
Sora looked up. "Matt! I'm sorry but I gotta go"
"Wait! Please just hear me out"
"What? You plan on telling me how you feel about me now?"
"No, I plan on singing my feelings out to you"
"What?"
"Just listen"
Sora sighed and sat back down as Matt began strumming.
My Heart Sing – A Zero Unit Production
"It's so hard to tell you how I feel
But I can tell you that it's real
You can make the pouring rain
Sound as if it's callin' my name
And you make my heart sing all the time
You can make my world shine
Just for bein' with me all the time
And you know all the words to say
When I'm in my lowest day
And I can't help fallin' in love with you
And you can make my heart sing
Because you are my everything
To me, so tell me that you love me
Cuz' I need you to help me learn to fly
And you're the only one who can help me reach the sky
You can make my heart sing
For you I'd do most anything
And you can help me fly high
Just until we reach the sky
And that's just how it is
Tonight…
You're always there to help me up
And I'll always do the same for you
Nothing ever brings me down
As long as you are by my side
And you can make my heart pound
So listen to these words I speak
And hear the words that are so real
Cuz' we're living in a fantasy
And all the rest is history
So let us solve this mystery
Tonight…
And you can make my heart sing
Because you are my everything
And I just wanna let you know
That you can my heart sing
A thousand words, my every feeling
Deep inside of my heart
We will never be apart…"
Matt stopped strumming and looked at Sora who remained silent.
"Well?"
"I think I made you sing rather than your heart" said Sora. "And I loved. Just about as much as I still love you"
Matt smiled in return. "I love you too Sora"
Some words are better off not spoken, for Matt, these words were better off sung. With it they were able to reach new heights. They really were able to touch the sky, with a little help from Birdramon.
In my opinion, this chapter was okay. But I want to know how you guys feel. Don't forget to review and remember that the song in this chapter is not real, it's my own creation. For the next chapter, it'll be the first crossover pairing. Iori (Cody) Hida and Xiaochun (Suzie) Wong.
