Chapter 01: Just Friends For Life
(EDITED)
Tai's POV-
Sora
and I have been best friends. Since Pre-K.
"Ha!" Matt exclaimed, I snapped back to reality and see that I'm losing my favourite game! "It's not my fault I'm dreaming!"
I blew up…Matt gave me a look, causing the two of us, GAME OVER.
"AWWWW!" I exclaimed, but Matt didn't bother that much.
"Thinking of Sora, again?" Matt guessed. I didn't repsond.
"Tai, it's normal to think of your best friend…but…are you sure that you two are only in Tight, not us?" Matt asked.
"Sora and I? No!" I said, but, Matt's right, we've been tight, but no us. "I'm sure there's always that one person that will aleays have your heart, you'll never see it coming cuz you're blinded from the start." Matt quoted.
Soccer Practice-
"Okay girls, summer's here. Well do extra practices, twice a week-" Sora was cut off.
"Sora, it's summer! We all have to spend our time for family, friends and boyfriends!" Dee exclaimed, Sora didn't respond.
As soon as they realized her weakest point, Dee grinned.
"Or maybe because you don't have one." Dee said, making Sora cring.
"I don't have time for that." She said defensively.
"Oh Sora, Tai will always be there! You're always tight!" Dee said, making mushy faces. Sora turned her back. She is right…Tai and I have no us.
"Fine, no meetings for whole summer." Sora said. She quickly exited the place and changed her clothes with Mimi.
"Sora, you don't have to take anything seriously by Dee." Mimi suggested.
Sora sighed and smiled. "Thanks for encouraging, but she's right, Tai and I never even have US." Sora said.
"Aw Sora!" Mimi exclaimed. "Well, it's easy for you because you already have Matt, and he loves you too and you two have us!" Sora said sadly, Mimi blushed red.
"He was the one who asked me out, not me." She said. "Oh don't deny Mimi, you were like mad when he asked you out."Sora said.
They heard a bell, probably from a bicycle. Mimi looked back.
"Speaking of Tai…he's here." She said. Tai was riding a bicycle, so slow. Sora sighed. "It's Tai alright." Sora muttered.
"Hey Sora!" Tai said goofily which made Sora pat her forehead.
"It's Tai alright." She repeated. Tai wasn't looking, he was almost get crashed with an ice truck. It beeped.
"What kind of driver are you?" Tai yelled at the speeding truck away from him. Sora and Mimi sweat dropped.
"Tai, that won't help." Said Sora as she dragged him out of the road with his bicycle.
"Hey Sora, can you defeat Matt in Final Fintasy?" said Tai, Sora sighed.
"Tai, grow up. We're not in Pre-K anymore." She said. Tai sighed.
"Yeah. Who're you going to the prom with?" Mimi asked.
"I don't know Mimi. You know I still don't have a boyfriend." Sora said, remembering that Tai and her never had Us.
"Wether you have one or not, you should enjoy the prom." Mimi said, Sora frowned.
"Of course you would enjoy. You have a guy who takes care of you, pleases you, loves you whole-hearted Matt! But I don't have one! It's just not fair on you saying those words! If you're in my place you will surely understand." Sora exclaimed.
Mimi looked at the ground. "You always have Tai, he was always at your back…" Mimi muttered. "…but you never see anything through him." She muttered. Sora looked back. "You're saying something, Mimi?" Sora asked, she shook her head.
Locker…
"Yo Matt!" Tai greeted.
"Hey Tai, today is our anniversary…you got any ideas for a perfect gift?" Matt asked. Tai shrugged. "How am I supposed to know? I don't even have a girlfriend." Tai said.
Matt rolled his eyes. "Sora's available." Matt said, Tai alarmed.
"Woah man, Sora and I are just friends, and that's for life. We were like, both chocolate, while you and Mimi are…strawberry and mango…got me?" Tai said, trying to ignore the question.
"Yeah…strawberry and mango….Tai you're a genius!" Matt exclaimed as he patted his back hard. "I am?" Tai asked.
"Yup, see ya later!" Matt said as he ran with the idea like cars. Tai opened his locker, and looked at the picture he got from Sora, slipped in his locker mirror. At the back, written,
"For the best boy bud I had, here's a smile you had achieved, I hope I can get one too." He smiled and flipped back.
There it is. Sora with the happiest smile on her face.
She is kinda cute…No! We're just friends! Sora and I are just bestbuds! But, they stayed friends for a long time now, some says friends to lovers. But you'll never see it coming cuz love is always blind.
"Hey Tai!" Sora greeted from his back, he alarmed. "Hey Sora." "hey Tai, can we talk for a minute?" Sora favored. "Sure." They headed to the cafeteria.
"What do you want to talk about?" Tai asked, before Sora could answer, she sobbed.
"Oh Tai! It's Matt and Mimi's one-month anniversary! I couldn't help but to be jealous at her! She always has a person to lean on, the person who will love her forever, and I know Matt loves her so much! But me, I don't have anyone…I-I'm so hated…" Sora trailed off, Tai wrapped his arms around her.
"I'm sure there will always be. Let's go boy hunting for you tomorrow." Tai said, Sora smiled. "Oh Tai! You're really are my bestfriend!" Sora exclaimed as she hugged him tightly. Tai frowned a bit. Just friends, right? "See ya later Tai!" Sora said and left him without knowing his feelings.
Tai looked saddened. Friends.
"There's always that one person-" Matt began to sang from the back, but Tai already knew it was Matt so he hushed him up.
"Jeez man, what's the long face there?" Matt asked, as Mimi joined in like a pop-up ad in the Internet.
"Hey Tai." Mimi greeted.
"Mimi, didn't you know that Sora's jealous of you?" Tai said making Mimi choke.
"Why and How?" Mimi asked.
"Well, she was jealous because you have a guy that loves and takes care of you. While she never notices that I'm her bestfriend." Tai said, looking at Matt.
"Mimi, you know what day today is, right?" Matt asked, Mimi nodded.
"One month anniversary." She said as she pecked his lips. Tai rolled his eyes.
"No wonder Sora gets jealous…" he muttered. He looked at the two couple, tweeting each other, so sweet, that he notices….JUN's looking.
He smirked. "Mattie, better watch out, cuz there's a lady with burning eyes, her name is Jun." Tai said sarcastically. Matt alarmed.
Jun walked towards Tai, Matt and Mimi's table. Unfortunately, Sora came in and suddenly punched Jun for no reason.
"Sora, you're my hero!" Matt praised, Mimi giggled, Sora rolled her eyes. "Oh please Matt, anyway, I better borrow Tai, we have some initiations…" Sora said as she dragged Tai to the cafeteria door.
