Still waiting for the yelling and insults, and no, I am not dead. Sorry for leaving you guys. Every once in awhile I get bored of writing and take a break. Crazy, I know. I'm sorry!

Taichi

For the first time in my memory, I'm at school early. Earlier then most teachers, even. I sit and wait for Matt, and watch as the hallways fill up. A body slides down beside me, but it's not Matt.

"Hey, Tai. Where've you been? I've been trying to get a hold of you for days."

"Sorry, Sora." I say without looking at her. I continue to gaze out towards the body's shuffling around the school waiting for the bell. I hear Sora's huff, and am absently aware she's trying to talk to me, but my eyes have caught that blonde hair. As he moves towards us, he rolls his eyes. Sora stops talking when she sees him. He gets to us and stares at me.

"Get the fuck outta the way." He snaps. Sora flinches. I slide towards her and she shoves over. Matt opens his locker, shoves his backpack in it. He slams his locker shut, and I feel Sora shrink away. I watch him walk away.

"Is he always like that?" She mutters against my shoulder. I shake my head.

"Do you think T.K would like him so much if he was?" I can almost feel the wave of confusion that washes over her. The bell chimes somewhere that's not quite where I am, and I pull myself up.

"Come sit with us at lunch today, okay, Tai?"

"Sure, sure." I head to my first class, and peek in the door. No Matt, only Kou. I sit beside him.

"Hi, Tai."

"Hey. Have you seen Matt?"

"Uhm...No?" I look down at my desk. And when attendance is called, there is still no Matt. I want to say I saw him, but I don't want him to get in trouble, either. Kou help me out through the class, I guess he can tell I'm not really there.

"Are you okay, Tai?" He asks for the hundredth time.

"Fine, fine." I mutter. When the door opens, all heads turn up.

"You're late Mr..." The teacher drags off, unsure what to call Matt.

"Yea, sorry.." Is all he says. He hands in a late slip. He comes and sits on the other side of Kou, not looking at me.

"You know, coming to class 10 minutes before the bell ring isin't rea-"

"Fuck off." He cuts me off. Kou looks at me, and I shrug.

"You know, you don't have to be a douche all the time because people want to help you..."

"Want to help me, Taichi? If you want to help me, leave me the fuck alone." It's not loud enough to make people look at us, but it's loud enough to attack my heart.

"Kou, can I borrow whatever notes I missed?"

"Uhm..sure, Matt." He hands them over, and Matt adds them to his binder.

"I'll give them back tomorrow."

"Okay.." Matt's up, and the bell rings. He vanish down the hallway. I lean against the wall, and mt vision blurs slightly with tears. One manages to leak, and I rub my arm along my eyes, hiding all evidence. I'm glad gym's next.

I sit on the ground, watching the rest of my class play soccer on the field. I lied, and said I had twisted my ankle. No body said anything about the way they had seen me walking before hand. The one person that did open his mouth to say other wise snapped it shut when he realized my eyes where on him, and he changed his sentence from "I watched Matt hop down the stairs." to "I watched Matt do it." A ball comes flying past my head, and I hardly even glance at it. I know the ball was from Taichi's foot, and I know he's taking his anger out on the other students. The coach throws their ball back. I watch as Tai's body smashes into another students, and they both fall to the ground. Whistle blows, I watch as Tai tries to make an argument, but he loses. He gets sent to the office, as he walks past me he gives me a dirty look, which I return with an icy stare. He backs down first. I see the shiver go down his spine. I guess it's a good thing the class is almost over. The coach sends us back early, because of Tai. When I get to the cafeteria, Tai's already there. Sitting with his group of friends. And I can see I'm going to have some trouble. My eyes trace the room. I can see the dirty looks. Especially from the red head with Tai. I roll my eyes, and storm out. I head to the office.

"What can we do for you Matt?"

"I don't feel good. I want to go home." As I say it, I really do become light headed and dizzy, I sway. The nurse is called, and she leads me to the back room, and makes me lay down. I swim half unconscious, and can hear her talking to my 'mother'.

"Don't worry, Matt." The reassuring voice tries to sooth me. I moan. I must have drifted off, because suddenly my 'mother' is gently trying to set me up. I let her help me pull myself to my feet, and lean on her slightly as she leads me to the car. I have no energy and she even does my seat belt up for me. Then I'm in my bed. I sit up, and force the sick feeling to pass, and search my room for my cell phone. When I find it, I dial a number that I haven't had to use in awhile. the line rings once, twice, three times, four times. Just as I get ready to hang up...

"Hello?"

"Come and get me," I beg.

"What? Matt, what's wrong?"

"Please? Just come and get me.. I want to go back home. Pleasee.." My voice cracks, and I think that's what makes him agree.

"Okay...Get ready, I guess. I'll be there soon." I hang up. I throw what little want to take with me into a bag with Baby's leash. I sit on my bed, with the door open and wait. My heart stops when there's a knock on the door.
