Chapter 1: One Wish, Big Change

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"No" The boy's answer was flat as he lay on his bed throwing his soccer ball at the ceiling continuously. He'd been distant like this for a week now and his younger sister really wasn't sure what to do at this point.

"I think it'll make you feel better." She said softly staring at her older brother with worry in her eyes. She hated seeing him like this, angry and sad. It wasn't like Tai Kamyia to act this way and she wasn't happy with it.

"It won't change anything." He said as he caught the ball for a final time and threw it onto the ground. He turned over on his side to face the wall avoiding his sister.

"Tai…" The short brown haired girl sighed coming over and sitting on the edge of his bed. "Please I just want to help."

"Well you can't."

"Because you won't let me!" She said becoming frustrated with his attitude.

"Okay Kari," Her brother said turning over and looking at his sister. "Here's how you can help me, you can create a time machine and take me back in time so I could tell Sora how I feel about her before stupid Matt snatches her away from me." He turned back over angrily.

"He's not dating her to hurt you Tai…"

"No that's just a bonus of it all!"

"Tai he's your best friend!"

"And how the hell would you feel Kari if Yolie started dating Tk?" Tai asked looking at her.

Kari's face turned red and she shut up immediately feeling a tug in her gut at what Tai had just said. "That's different me and Tk are just friends…nothing more."

"Yeah well your diary says differently."

"Tai! You read my diary!" Kari yelled suddenly extremely mad at her brother. "Why would you do that?"

"There was nothing on TV…"

"TAI!"

"Don't worry I'm not going to tell him." He said doing a hand motion that said don't sweat it. "Look the fact of the matter is that my best friend is dating the girl of my dreams and my life is now over."

"It's not over, you're being overdramatic."

"Yolie and Tk…"

"STOP IT!"

"EXACTLY!" He yelled sitting up straight sighing. "Seriously Kari I don't know what to do…I love her and I just can't stand to sit there and watch them together…it's only been a week of them dating and I'm already going ballistic."

"Maybe you should talk to her…" Kari offered quietly and Tai gave her a look like she was crazy.

"Okay Kari I'm going to go over to her and say what, 'Hey Sora I love you, I know you're dating Matt and all but I thought I'd let you know, 'kay bye'. Yeah great plan…"

"Okay, don't say anything." Kari said putting her hands up in defense of herself. "But moping around like this isn't helping you. You're depressed and it's worrying me. I know you're hurt but we all want Tai back."

"Yeah tell me this when you're in my shoes…" He said getting up off his bed and heading for his door.

"Where are you going?" Kari asked following her brother out of his room and into their living room.

"For a walk, I need some air." He said as he put on his shoes and went for the door. "I'll be back in a bit."

"Okay…" Kari said sighing as she rested up against the wall of their living room as she watched him leave. He slammed the door on his way out and she felt sadness fill her. "Oh why did this have to happen?" She asked no one in particular.

…

Tai put his hands on the railing as he rested up against the side of the bridge looking over at the water. It was springtime and the trees were filled with flowers in the park and birds were flying around skimming the water every now and again. A breeze swept by the eighteen year old boy and a chill ran down his spine.

"Funny meeting you here."

The voice made him jump and he felt nervous as he turned around to see the one girl he had been avoiding since he found out she was dating his best friend.

"Hey Sora," Tai said quietly then turned back to the water.

"Something must really be bothering you if you're standing by the water thinking." She joked but he didn't say anything so she nudged him. "Hey I'm making fun of you, you're supposed to get mad and make fun of me back."

"I'm not really in the mood, Sora." Tai said still not looking at her. Another breeze swept by filling the silent air.

Her voice softened. "What's going on, Tai?"

"Nothing, okay?" Tai said becoming annoyed. He picked up a rock from the ground and chucked it into the water nearly hitting a bird.

"Tai"

"What?"

"It's me," Sora said moving closer to him. "I'm one of your best friends you can talk to me."

"No actually you're one of the people I can't talk to." He said moving away from her slightly.

Sora looked hurt and just stared at him. "What are you talking about?"

"Sora please…"

"No, Tai I care about you and want to know what the matter is!" She said with her voice rising as she began to get upset.

"You care about me?" He spat back for the first time looking at her when he spoke.

She gave him an angry look. "You know I do!"

"But not as much as you care about Matt, right?" He asked with his voice raised. Sora looked taken aback and her face went slightly red.

"Wha…what's that supposed to mean?"

"You know exactly what it means!"

"You're mad at me because I'm dating Matt?" She asked in disbelief. "Well that's your fault!"

"What?" He asked too loudly staring at her bewildered. "How the hell is that my fault!"

"For not getting to me first!" She yelled back angry with him.

"So it's my fault you're saying yes to the first guy who asks you out?"

Sora's face was red with fury. "I like Matt, okay? I wouldn't say yes to just any guy but he's a friend and I care about him! What I am saying is that it's your fault for not saying you had feelings for me before!"

"You KNEW how I felt!" Tai yelled.

"How the heck was I supposed to know how you felt Tai?" Sora yelled back. "I see you flirting with other girls all the time and you don't treat me like you treat them!"

"Exactly!"

Sora stopped yelling for a minute letting what he just said sink in so Tai spoke for her. "I didn't treat you like I treated all those stupid girls because I love you not them."

Sora backed up literally this time tears starting to form in her eyes. "Yo..you can't say that."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm dating Matt!" She yelled. "It's too late and you pick now to tell me you're in love with me!"

The sky started to cloud up and rain began to fall lightly around them. Sora wiped her face from the rain and her tears. "Why…why are you doing this to me?"

He looked at her sadly. "Because I can't stand to watch you two together."

She felt her words stutter as she chocked up. "We…well you're gonna have to! Because I'm with Matt and he's your best friend and you have to learn to deal with it!"

"What if I can't?" He asked shakily but with a serious face.

She shook in the cool rain that had begun to come down faster. "Tai…" She whispered.

"I love you, Sora."

She shook her head. "You can't…"

He moved in closer pushing her wet hair out of her face. "No…no you can't!" She backed up as the rain fell between them. "It's too late…I'm sorry." And then sure turned and left running away, leaving him in the rain shouting her name.

She ran through the rain, the mud, and the dirt into her apartment. She was so glad nobody was home and that she could just run into her bedroom and cry on her bed.

She tossed open the door and kicked her shoes off. She quickly changed out of her dirty jeans and sweater and threw them on the floor. Then she grabbed her favorite pair of sweats and threw on the first t-shirt in her drawer. Then she broke out into even more tears when she realized the t-shirt was one of Tai's and she had forgotten she had borrowed it.

Sora collapsed into her bed crying while wearing Tai's t-shirt. She couldn't believe he had told her he loved her. For years now that's all she had wanted him to say, to confess. She'd spend so much time trying to get over him because she figured he saw her nothing more than as friends. So when Matt asked her out she grabbed at the chance, and she liked Matt she really did it just she didn't have the same feelings for him as she did for Tai.

She grabbed her pillow and threw it at the ground out of anger then lied down on her bed which was now uncomfortable without her pillow. She had her eyes covered with her arms when she heard her cell phone ringing beside her. Reluctantly she grabbed it and answered it without looking at the caller ID.

"Hello…" She said drearily.

"Sora? It's Joe you alright? Oh no have you got that stomach bug going around?" Sora couldn't help but sigh at Joe's worried tone.

"I'm fine Joe, just tired, what's up?"

"Well I'm just calling because I forgot to confirm with everyone the digidestined anniversary picnic in the digital world on Saturday. Can you believe it? It's been seven years since we first went to the digital world!"

Sora sighed heavily. She had forgotten about the damn picnic and really did not want to go and see Tai and Matt. "Okay Joe, thanks for calling and reminding me."

"No problem, you should probably get some sleep and drink lots of fluids; it sounds like you're coming down with that bug. You wouldn't believe how many people have come in this week with it."

She couldn't help but smile at her friends concern. "Thanks Joe, bye." She hung up the phone and then proceeded to throw that at the ground. Damn digidestined picnic.

"Stupid digital world is what got me into this mess!" She said angrily to herself. "I just had to go to camp that stupid summer. I just had to become close to both Tai and Matt. I just had to fall in love with the big bushy haired air head and say yes to the wrong guy. Stupid stupid stupid! I wish I had never gone to the damn digital world!" She shouted in anger and at the same time a strike of lightening lit up her room. She grabbed her pillow off the floor and put it back on her bed lying down in it.

"What am I going to do?" she whispered and started to cry some more until it exhausted her and she fell asleep.

…

She opened her eyes the next morning wondering if it all was a dream, Tai telling her he loved her and everything. She forced herself out of bed and looked at herself in a mirror awaiting the disaster of her smeared make up face when she noticed something off.

"My t-shirt." She whispered looking down at an old yellow v-neck she had fallen asleep in. "Wait where's Tai's shirt…?" She looked around her room confused then eventually convinced herself that she had dreamt wearing it at all.

After she got dressed and ready for school, she headed into the kitchen and grabbed an apple out of the fridge. As she closed it the door of the fridge caught her eye. The picture she had put up of the original eight digidestined from the first time they went to the digital world was gone. She sighed, "Sora, you are just finding reasons to think of Tai." She convinced herself and forgot about the picture on the fridge.

Eventually she left for school. It was a decent day but a bit cool from the previous night's storm. She walked down the sidewalk until she came to a cross roads, and Tai was coming from the other side. She took a deep breath knowing she'd need to talk to him eventually. "Tai."

He turned and stopped walking but gave her a weird look. "What?"

She felt annoyance rising in her. "Don't say what to me, I think we should talk about what happened last night!"

Tai's face became even more confused. "What are you talking about?"

"You telling me you loved me!" Sora snapped.

This time he laughed. "Sora why the hell would I tell you that I love you? We barely talk to each other and when we do it's only to argue."

Sora felt like she'd been stabbed in the stomach. What was he talking about? Was this some type of a joke? "You're an ass." Was all she could manage out of her mouth before she took off running towards the school.

She hated him, how could he pretend like he didn't tell her he loved her the night before? Was this some kind of a sick twisted joke? Well it wasn't funny. Sora became so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't realize the other girl near her as she ran right into her and they both fell to the ground.

"OW!" Screamed the girl and Sora looked up to see it was Mimi.

"MIMI!" Sora screamed and hugged the girl tightly. "Mimi what are you doing here? Why aren't you in America?"

Mimi gave her a strange look. "Umm because I live here…"

Sora's face lit up. "You moved back?"

"I never left." Mimi was looking at her like she was crazy. "I thought you were smart but you certainly don't seem it…"

Sora's face fell and she felt the confusion sinking in. Suddenly she heard another voice.

"Are you guys okay?" She looked up to see Joe standing there looking worried.

"I'm fine, and luckily my outfit is too. You should really watch where you're going." Mimi said looking at Sora before getting up and walking away.

Sora looked up at Joe. "What's going on with her?"

"I don't know?" Joe said looking confused.

"Her and Tai, they're acting so weird today."

"Who's Tai?" Joe asked still confused.

Sora gave him a look. "Joe stop it you know Tai, don't you start this craziness too."

"How do you know my name?" The young man looked confused and a bit alarmed at the same time.

"Because we're friends…"Sora said slowly.

Joe just looked at her. "I've never met you in my life."
