Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ It Won't Be Soon Before Long ❯ Little of your time ( Chapter 3 )

Well, I found a beta. The way this chap is written is most likely the best chapter of ANY of my stories. I told him he has a job. If I had a job I'd be sending him a paycheck. Expect greater chaps from me from now on!

THANK YOU DANNY!!!!!!

I also wanna say real quick that this story has been written out, mostly, but there is a lemon in later chapters, but i decided not to risk putting a lemon on the site this was on, so im just gonna link it here. But i decided instead of just posting the lemon here, i will post the whole story! I am actually no good at lemons (Read my tamers story on this site if you dont believe me) so a friend is writing it for me, but i dunno how long it will take him, so im going to update this story one chap a day from here on out, until he gets it done, then i will put up the rest.

Chapter 3: Little Of Your Time

“I just need

A little of your time

little of your time

to say the words

i never said.”

Tai had a hard time sleeping at night, but once he did, it was hard
for him to wake up, since he was exhausted from tossing and turning
thinking of what to do, but couldn't help but feel that something might
be wrong with Matt since he wasn't picking up his best friend's calls.
It was summer so he didn't have any classes, one less thing that Tai had
to worry about, but the whole situation kept running through his head.
Seth. The jealousy. The lack of trust. Emotions he thought he'd never
felt, since he thought Seth was the one, and a little bit of guilt since
Seth did pay for his classes last semester, but Seth wasn't playing fair.
He sat up, taking a deep breathe to try and relax a bit, to take things one
at a time. As he rubbed the tears that formed on his eyes from yawning
in bed, and glanced around the room to see what time it was.

'Already Noon.' Tai thought to himself, since he couldn't remember if
there was a clock in the room he was staying in anyway. 'I need to get up and go ask
Matt if I can stay with him.' Thought Tai to himself, since he had
stayed with Matt before, and after all he was his best friend.

Tai got to his feet and walked in his pajamas on his way to the

bathroom, but he so happened to pass by Izzy's bedroom and saw him on
his computer, but it was nothing out of the ordinary, since it is Izzy
after all.

"Hey Izzy." Tai said. "Thanks for letting me stay here."

Izzy turned around and smiled.

"You're welcome Tai. Oh, and, By the way Matt called."

Tai's face lit up.

"What did he say?"

"Well he was looking for you and I said you were here and I told him
about the break up. He said you can move right back into the spare
bedroom you had before."

Tai smiled. "Awesome."

"But Tai, there is something else," Izzy took a breathe, "His producer

called him and told him his Cd's are selling so well that he is going on tour all over
Japan this summer. His plane leaves at 2."

Tai blinked. Matt was going to be away? And he didn't call Tai? He
called Izzy. Who doesn't call their best friend when they are leaving
for a good while? Tai now knew he had to get in touch with Matt, and
soon.

Izzy noticing the look of confusion on Tai's face, thought he'd break
the awkward silence, "He said you had a key to his house?"

Tai could only nod, as he was still wondering why Matt didn't call him.

Tai not looking any better and more spacey than normal, Izzy was growing
more concerned. "Tai? Are you okay?" asked Izzy while trying to see if
there was anything he could do. He may not be Tai's best friend, but he
was not one to not help someone who he thought needed help.

Izzy had always been a great friend to Tai, and so he decided to share
his feelings with him, because right now they were killing him, and he
needed to talk to someone, and who better than Izzy, since he did offer
him shelter when he didn't have any.

"Izzy... I keep thinking about what Seth said when we broke up. Do you

think it is possible that... I may have feelings for Matt?" asked Tai
with his head down, looking at the floor of Izzy's bedroom.

"Only you can answer that Tai. I can't tell you how you feel."

Tai shook his head. Not exactly what he wanted to hear, but it did make
sense, but right now he needed some sort of opinion, a "yes." Or a
"no"

"I know that, but I mean, what do you think? Do you think that I like
him?"

"Absolutely not." Izzy said, with a small smile forming on his concerned
face, that was slowly looking happier since Tai was now seeing what had
been obvious to a lot of people, and had been under his nose the whole
time. "You do not like him Tai. You LOVE him"

Tai had been struggling with how he felt since last night, but as soon

as Izzy said it, he knew it was true. If he wasn't able to tell, and the
studious and observative Izzy was to tell, then it just HAD to be true.
Izzy was rarely wrong.

Tai ran to go change out of his pajamas, then he looked at his cell
phone; he didn't have much time left, and he noticed that he did not
have a missed call. He changed quickly, and came back to talk to Izzy again.

"You said Matt was looking for me, right?"

"Yeah..."

"He didn't call my cell. Could he be avoiding me? Why did he call me?
So, he just wanted to let me know somehow he was leaving, but not tell me directly?"

Izzy shrugged. How else could he react towards Tai's barrage of
questions.

Tai looked worried now. "Okay, I'm leaving. What time was he leaving
again?" asked Tai across his shoulders as he was ready to bolt out to go
find Matt.

"He said his plane leaves at 2. Its 12:30 now."

"Shit!" Tai yelled and ran to his car, he knew that for flights you had
to be there an hour before, and Matt was probably about to leave his
house.

Matt saw his cell phone ringing in the palm of his hand, but knew it was
Tai and let the call go unanswered. After his cell phone notified him
that he had a missed call, he took a deep breathe and shook his head, as
he put the phone back in is pocket.

"Don't you want to talk to him?" TK asked, startling Matt a little.

"No. I ruined his relationship. I can't face him." Answered Matt, still
not looking at T.K.

"I'm sure Tai doesn't think of it like that." Replied T.K. with concern
in his voice and put a hand on Matt's shoulder.

"But he should." Matt said as he finally finished packing his

suitcase, and moved, making T.K.'s hand fall from his shoulder "He would

still be in a great relationship if it weren't for

me. Are you packed TK?" asked Matt, still not looking at his brother.

"Yeah, I'll help you get this out to the Limo." Replied T.K. as he moved
and reached over to help Matt with his stuff.

As Matt and TK were putting the last bags in the car, Tai pulled up and
parked right behind the limo.
Tai jumped out of the car and ran up to Matt and T.K., but more in
Matt's direction.

"Matt, we need to talk!"

Matt turned away facing the limo, knowing that Tai would want to talk,
obviously, but he couldn't stand himself for ending the relationship his
best friend had. He couldn't stand himself, why should Tai? He thought.

"I'm sorry, I have to go. I hope you are ok this summer, staying at my
house."

"Matt, I know your in a hurry, but please, I just need a little of your

time." Matt could hear the urgency in Tai's voice, but didn't know what
he could do at the moment to make the situation any better. After all,
what is there left to say, aside from good bye.

Matt shook his head.

"I don't have it. I'm sorry Tai. Good bye."

With that Matt got in the car and the limo drove away.

Tai stood in the dust. He could not believe his best friend was doing

this to him. It made his stomach turn into knots, and was starting to
make him sick, as he felt he was tossed aside for fame. Something he
thought Matt deserved, but he thought Matt knew better than to let it
get to his head.

With a sigh, Tai walked inside Matt's house. It was fairly big, and just
how he remembered it.

When Tai took his first step inside the house, he could smell Matt. The
whole house usually did, but now the smell was stronger, since he hadn't
been there in a while, and he now would be living in it.

He walked in the living room, looking around to see if anything had
changed, and saw a picture of him and Matt hugging and smiling, as
friends should.

Tai sat down, staring at the picture, remembering that day.

"I think I do love him. How did I not see it before? When did it happen?
Why am I barely realizing it now, when it's too late? Why didn't I just
yell 'I love you!' before he got in the limo?"

With so many questions running through Tai's mind, he was so caught in
the worry, stress, and sadness of it all, before he knew it, he was

crying. He laid down on the couch, staring

at the picture, and finally cried himself to sleep.

One Week Later...

x x x x x x x x x

Tai had been trying to call Matt every day since he was left on Matt's
doorstep as Matt left to go on tour, trying to get in touch with him, if
not to bear his soul, to save his friendship that he felt was falling
apart.

Matt picked up his cell again to see that it was Tai calling, and
sighed, as he put it back away.

T.K. Looked over at his brother, seeing that he was hurting when he
shouldn't. Matt was finally reaching another one of his goals, and
should be happy, over joyed even, but he wasn't. This was bothering
T.K., and knew that Matt needed to talk to someone, if not it would hurt
him more emotionally, end up affecting his performance, fighting, and
probably could cost him his record deal and tour.

"Why won't you talk to him? What is going on Matt?"

Matt shrugged. He wasn't in the mood to talk, or do anything. He hasn't
been since that day he heard Seth yelling at Tai, and that their
relationship was over.

"You wouldn't understand."

"Why not?" T.K. Said getting defensive. "I have been in love before."

Matt jumped at this, but he twitched physically. How could T.K. Know?
How did he know what he had barely allowed himself to know only
recently? What should he do now? Bare his soul?

"Matt, it's obvious. It's been obvious for years now. Why not just
tell him how you feel?"

Matt shook his head.

"Because he doesn't feel the same way. If i wasn't around, he would
still be with Seth. His unhappiness is my fault."

"Matt, please talk to me about what happened with Tai, and how you

feel." T.K. Said, trying to coax Matt into talking to him.

Matt exhaled. "Okay, Fine. It all started when..."
