Subject: Guess what…
Heh! Mimi, it's me. How's everything going? How's Michael? Do you still miss Joe? Well guess what, Matt's my boyfriend now.
I miss you
Love Sora
"Mmm…maybe I should add a few more sentences and a few more exclamation marks to sound more excited…" "But are you really?" a tiny voice said in her head. "I-I-I guess I am…" "Are you sure?" "I-I-I…
It was true Sora had liked Matt for quite some time now; she made cookies for him at Christmas for Pete's sake. And she was 17, she should have a boyfriend. But some part of her. Deep down inside knew, and as hard as it was to admit it, Matt wasn't the one she wanted to be with. Deep down inside knew that past Matt's charm and hotness there was nothing to like, and there was someone else she wanted to be with. Somebody who had looked out for her since the day they arrived in the digital world. Someone else…
"It's thirty minutes to Matt's gig, I should get going!" "And 15 minutes to Tai's soccer game…" "Which one do you want to go to?" "I-I-I…" "Sora you must go to Matt's gig, stay quiet and be miserable for the rest of your life…" "I-I-I can't be talking to me; I'm going for some fresh air…"
She ran, ran as fast as she could to the elevator. Catching her breath, sweat fell from her head. "How can this be happening, how?" she liked Tai for a long time, for so long she couldn't count the years. So then why did she stop…but she never did, never did she stop to care for Tai. So then why is she with Matt, what had happened in the first place. Matt's cute, she thought…but that's it. She hadn't talked to him for more then a few kind words and many mean words for the past 4 years. What had happened, that had changed her life so dramatically. Well, it isn't my fault…Tai should had said something I know he liked me…but even blaming the one she loved couldn't work. It wasn't Tai's fault at all. It was her; she had fallen for Matt's charm like so many other girls. She had forgotten of Tai, who had cared for her, who with out him she would not be here today. That would mean she had to tell him, before it was too late… "Do you really want to do that? Destroy his heart and his best friend heart as well. Do you really want to destroy a great friendship? Tai hates you!" the tiny voice had bellowed throughout the elevator. "Shut up!!!" Sora ran through the elevator door into the lobby, through the door and into the streets, crying her heart out. People watched as she ran as quickly as she could to her school with snot coming out of her nose. She had to tell her love before a new girl could come along. She had to go to the soccer game and miss Matt's gig.
"Sorry Matt, but a girls go do to what a girls got to do…"
"Forgive me Tai, please wait for me…"
-Flashback-
"I will be waiting Sora…" (For those of you that don't know this part, in episode 38 in season 2 Sora turned down Tai for Matt and Tai said "I'll be waiting Sora…")
"I'm waiting…I'm waiting…I'M WAITING!!!!!!" Tai shouted over the field. He wasn't thinking of Sora, but he was waiting for something entirely different. He was waiting for Davis to pass the ball so that he could score the winning goal. "Freakin' god Davis, pass the ball and stop showing off!!!" he was angry at him. Sure there was only 5 minutes to the end of the first game but his team was tied against the other and it all came down to one more goal, it had already been an hour. But Tai knew why Davis didn't want to pass the ball; he wanted to impress his little sister Kari. It was hopeless though, T.K had already owned the title of Kari's "boyfriend", fairly. But who would want to tell Davis, he'd blow up like a volcano. "Davis!!!!!!!" "OK, OK!!!" Davis quickly past the ball just as the opposing team was about to get it. Davis quickly looked at the sidelines to see if Kari had seen the amazing pass. Unfortunately for him Kari was too deep in conversation with T.K. Tai, dodged left and then dodged right, sweat dripping down his forehead. He dodged several people from the other team. "C'MON TAI, YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!" several people (especially his little sister) were cheering him on. He couldn't lose now that he was so close, it had been two wins for Odaiba premiere's mixed team school for two years, and he couldn't let them win. He bit his lip he concentrated on the power in his foot and kicked. "SCORE!!!!!! Odaiba high school and middle school mixed team win the game 3-2 against Odaiba Premiere mixed team!!!!!!!" "YES!!!!" Tai was proud of himself. He could here the cheering of everyone from Odaiba School; his sister was clapping the hardest. "YEAH!!!! GO TAI!!!!" His parents were crying. Everyone had stood up and started clapping like thunder. He felt good; he had won the district championship against the rival school that had out shined his own school for years. He felt appreciated and felt warm like he could do anything but as happy as he was, something in the pit of his stomach was depressed. He saw most of his friends cheering, Izzy was clapping like crazy, Joe had even come for the game taking him away from his studies, Yolei and Cody were dancing, Davis was looking for Kari and T.K actually missed one of his older brother's gig for Tai (but more importantly Kari) Kari was still clapping the hardest out of the whole audience. But there was one friend that he wanted to see cheering along side him and it wasn't Mimi or his best friend. The one he wanted to see the most of all his friends combined. A person that would hug him and say "You're the best Tai!" he remembered that phrase many times in his past soccer matches. Someone he knew he couldn't have, but had loved at the start. A person that he knew was clapping but at someone else. Probably at a bass player he knew was his best friend. Tai hated that Sora liked Matt over him. But he knew it was his fault in the first place. If he had the courage to say something before maybe they'd be together. "I don't even understand how I had the crest of courage" he thought to himself over and over again. But then again, he treasured his friendship with Sora and Matt too much to say anything to ruin it. Though he knew he would regret it later, he knew it was for the best. Besides, there would be the girl... He forced a smile for all the people and even did a fairly happy high five with Davis. "Did you see that pass I gave to your brother Kari, pretty sweet right? How you say we grab some soda to celebrate?" T.K sighed in the background and muttered "When will he learn…" "For the last time Davis, NO!! Besides if big brother hadn't shouted in your face we wouldn't have won, c'mon Gatomon, T.K, let's grab a soda, Tai want to come?" "No thanks sis, I'm going to stick around" "K" Kari left with T.K with Davis and Veemon 10 steps behind them. Tai looked around; the whole field was soon emptying out. He still had his ball and the headlights were coming on. A little late night practice wouldn't hurt. And the cheering of his school was still stuck in his ears. He dribbled the ball in circles and didn't notice that in the shadows a girl was watching her. "Tai has got the ball; he dodges left and right, look at that amazing star player. It's obvious that one day he will be one of the greatest soccer players ever. He dodges the opposing team, he shoots he scores, and he wins Aaaahhh…the crowd loves him" he smiled down at his ball. "They sure would after that performance…" Tai could understand that beautiful angelic voice a mile away. He chuckled and turned around. "Well, I am the best…" Sora laughed for the first time in a long time. Tai stared at her, she was pretty as ever, more beautiful then he remembered. It had been a long time, she was not the tomboy from the years they spent in the digital world long ago, but the full-breed blossom she uses in her flower arrangements. Sora stared at Tai, and he was handsome and cute, and there was no mistaking it, he was hot. If she had just looked at her surroundings earlier on, she would have dated him in a heartbeat and not only for his appearance but for his good heart which she could see shining through. "I must sound pretty stupid narrating myself, but aren't you supposed to be at my best friend's gig at the café?" "Well, I couldn't miss Davis making a fool of him self…" "You are sure right there… he almost fainted when Kari chose T.K over him, hehe, but really Sora what did you come here for? Not that I don't like your company…I-I-I love you're coma-pany, I mean…*god Tai you are so stupid* thinking. Is there something wrong?" "Well I needed to talk to you about something…" "Sure, c'mon let's sit down on the field." They rested on the cool green grass and stared into the stars that were starting to twinkle above them. "Well, you know way back when Myotismon invaded Odaiba and I got captured by Myotismon's Bakemon but I escaped with Birdramon but at the cost of leaving Mimi and my mom behind?" "Yeah and when Myotismon took my parents, tried to kill my sister and kill everyone I love…" "Yeah, and sorry for bringing that up*God Sora you know he doesn't like his sister getting hurt, I mean look at his regret when Kari got ammonia, you are so stupid sometimes*thinking. Earlier that day I got captured because I went to soccer practice and I was planning on telling you something…" "Well, what was it?" "I-I-I…" "What is it Sora? You can tell me anything…" "I-I-I…ha-ve…always…" "Hi Tai…" it was a sweet voice of a girl that interrupted from behind Tai, sweet but with a hint of flirtation. Tai and Sora spun around, Sora couldn't believe her eyes "Could that be Tai's-Tai's…girlfr…? Was I too late?" she thought. Tears developed in Sora's eyes and a tear trickled down her face.
"Who is that girl? Could that possibly be Tai's girlfriend? Look how happy he looks…was I too late?" Sora was thinking she quickly wiped her tears. The beautiful girl had long wavy brown hair, dark deep blue eyes like the ocean. Her skin was like snow, her body was like one of a supermodel and her sweet voice was like a perfect song. "Sakura!!! What are you doing here?!!!" "Thought I drop by to see my Tai…" "Always the comic eh Sakura? Oh, Sora, this is Sakura." "Hi…" Sora spoke softly, *how can I tell him when he clearly loves someone else. I can't tell me, it was a mistake to come here… "Hi!" "So what were you saying Sora" *He's putting his arm over her shoulder, what do I say? "I just wanted to say that I always care for you and that…uh…you are a dear friend…and so I want you to be…uh…more careful out there…yeah! That's right…I want you to be more careful when you are in the digital world!" "Uh…ok…" *she was going to say something else…I can feel it…right before Sakura came… "Oh my gods look at the time! I better get going…uh…see you Tai…" "Ok?" Sora ran off, her eyes were full of tears. She ran and ran. She was too late, the love her life was gone forever…she saw the look on his face when little miss Sakura came in. that tiny voice was right, she would be miserable. Why couldn't she be quiet? She ran across the streets, dodging angry cars, she went up the stairs into her apartment. She ran into her apartment, covering her wet face with her now dripping hair. She entered her room, her parents were already in the living room watching a funny show and laughing too hard to notice her. She ran into her bedroom quickly and slammed the door with a bang, she cried and cried, and suddenly she shuddered, and checked her messages on line.

*Sigh…wait I have one more message!
To: soralove@hotmail.com
From: df@digi.com
Subject: advice
Dear Sora, love Matt and forget Tai and be sad
Love Tai and forget Matt and be mad.
WHAT, that doesn't make sense at all!!! I'd be sad in both occasions!!!!!! And who in the world is df@digi.com? Who is this, is this person I've been hearing, that voice is like a woman's voice, but not quite, it's like a mix between a woman and a man… and this digi.com, I've never heard of it. Is this from the digital world...but right now that's the least of my worries…?
What could Sora do? She loved Tai with all her heart, ever since she decided to tell him. The love poured out like water. But now she had cut the wound too late, Tai seemed to belong to someone else, a girl so hot even Scarlet Johansson could compare…
But then again Matt was still there for her, she had made a resolution she would not make the same mistake. She would not forget her surroundings like she did with Tai or risk losing another, another that she didn't love as much, but still…
"*Sigh…there is so much going on in my life…" she lay on her bed "Biyomon, I wish you were here, you'd know what to do…" "You know me more then anyone…" Biyomon and most of the other digimon stayed in the digital world to clean up the mess of MaloMyotismon and not only was there the whole mixed up love thing; she thought as she looked at the ceiling, Matt's birthday was coming soon. And she had to attend, whether she liked it or not. She had planned to make a surprise party weeks before, making it at the usual café. *I better call Matt; it is only 7:00pm…
Sora punched in the numbers that she remembered. She had almost forgotten that she used to have such an obsession with Matt, like a little love bird. Times had changed…
Matt: Hello?
Sora: Matt, it's me
Matt: Hi… (He sounds super relaxed but happy)
Sora: Hi, I'm sorry I missed your gig; I got your message…
Matt: it's ok, I was just wondering where you went.
Sora: I…*oh great! What do I say? I had to do something for my mom urgently…
Matt: It's ok
Sora: your birthday is coming up, so…happy before birthday…*have you ever heard anything lamer?!
Matt: thanks…
Sora: Uh…ok
Matt: Sora…
Sora: yeah
Matt: I love you…
Sora: …
Sora: …I l-lo-lov…I mean I do to… *I-I can't say it anymore, I wonder if he noticed!
Sora: bye…
*click
Mmmhh…maybe everything will be ok in the morning… "Then you are losing the battle dear…"
"Where am I?"
"What's that patting sound?"
"Misery, hate, love, cheerfulness…"
"What's happening?"
"Choose wisely or meet true doom"
"What is this?"
A wavering darkness came; the voice she had heard came once again. It had spoken, it was a prophecy…
It was early in the crack of dawn when Sora finally woke up, she never remembered waking up so early. "That dream, was it a dream, I felt like that voice was warning me about something…" she looked at her chicken clock, it was 6:00 in the morning. She was wide awake, but it wasn't the dream that she was now thinking of. She now did remember when she woke up this early. It was the day she was captured by the Bakemon.
-Flashback-
Coo-koo…coo-koo
Biyomon stood up with her yellow blanket over her legs…or whatever.
Her droopy eyes looked at the clock; she put her arm on top of it and looked at her partner who was at the closet packing her training bag and soccer ball. "Why are you up? It's still very early…" "I need to go to soccer practice; I also need to talk to Taichi about something, don't worry I'll be back before breakfast so you behave yourself"
"I also needed to talk to Tai…" *that's right, the day before that…I was thinking of talking to Tai about…liking him… I guess now, it's…it's too late. The truth made tears develop in her eyes. She felt stupid, she couldn't have realized it sooner that Matt wasn't the one. She stared out the balcony to the sky, the sun had just rise and the air was cool and fresh. Today was the day, the day she would help Matt invite everyone to the party. She had already had made a list of all the people Matt wanted to invite for the party. It was a surprise party but she knew Matt more than anyone…sometimes she wished she didn't but she had already had made a resolution…she would not forget Matt like she did with Tai.
The list of invitations to give out in a week
Joe
Izzy
Mimi
Me (of courseJ)
Tai
Davis
T.K (no questions)
Kari
Yolei
Cody
Guys from Matt's band
Parents
Gabumon and company
*sigh…that's a long list, oh well…I'm going to make it a happy birthday even if it kills me…
First on the list Joe…I'll call him on his cell phone since I can't invite him in person and he usually wakes up the earliest to study.
Bring…bring
Joe: Hello? This is Joe
Sora: Hello…Joe it's me Sora
Joe: Oh…heh!
Sora: I just wanted to tell you that you are invited to Matt's surprise birthday party at the old café
Joe: thanks bye
*click
I guess I'll just send Mimi an email and to the digimon and take to the streets. Sora changed to her pink t-shirt and her pink pants. Took her back pack for emergency and went to the hall, it was already 6:30 and she could hear her mother making breakfast. The smelled the air and could tell instantly that it was her mother's famous porridge. Her stomach grumbled. Sora had not eaten for hours; it's surprising to see that you completely forget about eating when you have love problems. She sat down in her chair and looked down at her bowl. Her mother was already washing her father's plate. "Sora, where do you think you are going it is a Saturday…?" "I wanted to meet some friends…" "That's alright honey, but I was wondering if you could help me at the shop." "I'm sorry but I really need to go…" she ate a spoon full of porridge and hurried out of the apartment before her mother would ask more questions. She hurried herself up, hours had suddenly passed and there was still one more person on her list, that person she had already passed by earlier that morning. *he's in the park with that model… when saying that she clenched her fists. Guess he's teaching her to play soccer, their laughing and having fun… it's already 5:00pm I have to tell him something…the sun was closing…and "Grhhh!" Sakura had just kissed Tai on the cheek. He was smiling and alone in the park surveying the lake and flowers. Sora gulped in the air. If she was going to act at all normal, she had to do something that might kill her. "Hi Tai…" "Oh, heh Sora! What's with the pencil and notepad? You a journalist for the gooey gazette at school?" Sora chuckled, but tried to stop it as much as she could. The gooey gazette was the lamest newspaper branch of journalist class in the school. Stories like "Rats found in sandwich in lunch room" "Mushrooms in the toilets" "Mr. Yamanaka? Or alien from mars?" where plastered the pages. It wasn't surprising, Iruka was the editor, and he was the most imaginative guy in the whole class. Most of what he said was bull shit. And not to mention he was the most gullible guy in the whole school, most of the stories in the newspaper where sent to him as a joke, but he took them seriously and put them in the newspaper. The only reason teachers kept his newspaper on was because not only was this a great branch of creative writing but also because they got a good laugh out of the deal. The only normal thing about him was that he had a crush on Mio, a cute smart girl. "No, I'm not! I just have a list here…" "A list for what?" "A list for Matt's surprise party I was planning…" "Really?!" "Yeah, and I came here to invite you, it's at the old café…and…" Sora's mouth was beginning to dry, she gulped her fear and opened her mouth and it was as if a remote control made her mouth move… "And…like…maybe…if you want…you could…like invite…your…girl-girlfriend Sakura…" there she had said it, but what was to follow she would had never expected…
"Sora, what are you talking about?" "I'm talking about that maybe you and you-your girlfriend Sakura could come to Matt's birthday party!" "Sora… What are you talking about?!" "Sakura is your girlfriend and since Matt's birthday is at the café, may-mayb-maybe you could bring your girlfriend Sakura…" "What?" Tai chuckled *she's stammering her words when she said my girlfriend, could that mean… "Sora…Sakura isn't my girlfriend…" Sora suddenly but her arms down limp on her body and grabbed the tree behind her. "Wh-What?" "But then you like her…don't you?" "Of course I like her…I love her…" Sora's stomach squeezed tight, she knew it. "But not like a crush or anything…" "Wh-What?" she couldn't believe her ears "Sora…Sakura is my cousin…she moved to Europe 4 years ago…she's my favorite cousin…didn't you notice? She's way older than me…" "Huh?" "Sora…" Tai moved closer…Sora looked up. "I…I'm sorry Tai…" "It's ok…" they were closer than ever, the sun was setting behind them. Their heads were touching. Tai looked down at the person he loved the most. Sora looked, deep in to those deep brown eyes. Remembering those times in the digital together:
-Flashback-
Devimon made Andromon evil and it attacks Sora by raising her in the air and threw her aside. Tai and Agumon tried to catch her.
And then there was the crest of love…
Tai: Great, this is just a perfect crest for you!
Tai: I felt something! I guess it was your love shining through!
"Oh Tai…" thinking…
He looked into those orangey eyes, they belonged to no one else…no one else had more beautiful eyes…
There lips were so close, almost…
They both knew it was going to happen and they both closed the eyes. Tai could feel her breath on his cheek, it smelled like strawberries. Sora could feel his bushy brown hair on her forehead. They were so close, so close that it was only millimeters that separated their lips…
"Sora…" Tai and Sora and Sora stopped so abruptly, *Oh no…Tai remembered that voice all to well. Sora stared into the person in front of them… "Ma-Matt…" Matt's fist began to clench. And right then he wished he never earned the crest of FRIENDSHIP, because he knew he no longer had any friends…
