Hello everyone who was following this fic (hehe – the six of you who had it on Fic-alert). I wanted to let you guys know that I'm abandoning this fic completely.
The reason: I RP'ed this concept with a friend of mine with original characters based off Matt and Tai. And that RP was all kinds of awesome – but it drained any interest I had in writing this concept as a MattXTai story… which really is too bad 'cus it's HARD for me to come up with concepts where Tai is willing. If you follow my other stuff, you know I usually write Tai as a straight-man raped into submission by Matt. Good times.
Anyway – especially thank you MrMooseyGoosey for being awesome and reviewing every chapter for me : ). I don't ask people to review 'cus I know reviews won't make a difference in whether I want to continue a story or not. But it was cool that you took time to write out those nice substantial reviews anyway.
Haha – right after I said I don't ask people to review, I'm kinda going to go back on my words a bit. I'd like a little input on which of the following storylines you guys think would be the most interesting to develop:
#1 - A love triangle between TK-Tai-Matt:
TK catches Matt & Tai in a compromising position when he's 15 & they're 21 – he develops a lust for Tai. Then when Tai is 24 & he's 18, they both are drunk & he tries to make a move but he finds out that Tai is really in love with Matt.
Excerpt from TK's perspective: "I didn't know if there was anything going on between them. For the longest time, I thought they really were just the best-friends they appeared to be on the surface. So you can imagine the shock I was in when I saw Tai riding my brother on Matt's bed one day. After that, I began to notice Tai's sad eyes when he saw Matt going out with Mimi."
#2 – love-triangle between Matt's mom, Tai, and Matt
Tai - 25 years old – works as a courier and a part-time soccer coach. Tai is secretly in love with Nancy (36, Matt's mother). Tai always makes sure to deliver packages to Nancy's house personally – but in the process, he starts to attract Matt's attention.
There she was. The woman of my dreams. Long blond hair falling down her back in luxurious waves, blue eyes shining in the mid-afternoon sun, her slender figure in a modest but feminine sundress. The most beautiful smile on her perfect face.
And she was waving vigorously. In my direction.
My heart started to pound in my chest. I nervously ran a hand through my hair, trying to straighten it up as much as I could after the long afternoon of soccer coaching before running upto meet her.
"Hello Tai," she said, holding out one tiny perfect hand for me to shake.

I was having a really good day. I had a package to deliver to Nancy's house – I was going to see her twice in one day. I spruced myself up before jumjping on my moped and taking off.
I rang the doorbell and waited nerously.
The kid who opened the door was quite tall – must be TK's older brother. They were a bunch of blonds but Matt was quite big
#3 – Matt and Tai as old flames
Matt and Tai did it when they were 19 & 20 years old respectively (but drunk one night) – Matt was just starting to get big movie-star. Matt left in the morning without a word.
They see each other again 10 years later – Tai's getting married to Yolei, works as a camera man. Matt is a huge movie-star – they meet on set.
How is Matt going to get Tai back?
"And in other news, Matt Ishida is home again after his stint in Hollywood."
#4 – Matt is a movie star and Tai is his driver.
One day, Tai kidnaps Matt and holds him for ransom in some remote location. They start to fall for each other – plot isn't developed at all. I posted a little bit of this fic here:

Can you guys help me out by picking which concept sounds the most interesting to you? I'd like a little inspiration about which direction to write in : )
And in case you wanted to read the RP based on "Unconventional" – I'll post it as a chapter for this fic if someone wants to read it. So just leave me a comment.
