part 1 Coming of Christmas
chapter 4

Sora threw a quick glance on the phone and sighed. Where was Yamato? She hoped she could get him out tonight. It was about to strike their first anniversary and she wanted to do something, like a small family celebration...
It was hopeless. Yamato was probably still at Taichi's. They were always good friends, and the fact that Sora liked Yamato better out of the two didn't draw them apart. It was her choice and there was nothing that they could do about it - nothing that Taichi could do about it.
The three of them were the best friends in the world...
Sora enviously thought about Yamato and Taichi. Sometimes it seemed more than a friendship. They were boys, they had similar interests (kinda..), they wasted a whole load of time playing stupid computer games or saving the world, it was natural and it didn't bother her... at first. Lately she grew worried sick because of strange glances that Taichi would send to Yamato once in a while... Really disturbing ones: prolonged and waiting, waiting, as if Taichi was expecting something, or speculating. Longing.
Sora frowned. Something about Taichi's way of looking at her boyfriend didn't settle in her stomach. She wondered if she should go against her nature and keep Yamato away from Taichi, spend more time with the blonde singer instead of letting him run off to Taichi, because... because...
Because, Sora started to hyperventilate when the realisation struck her, because she was jealous.
Taichi was in love... with her boyfriend. Oh my God!...

Later in the evening she was walking a strangely absent-minded Yamato along the dark streets, and her suspicions got worse.
*I'm fooling myself* she thought hopefully and stared at Yamato's profile.
They passed a brightly lit shop window, Sora pulled on his arm to point a funny singing Santa Claus toy in the window, but Yamato stayed impassive.
"Yamato..." she said gently and again tugged on his arm.
"...................."
"Yamato!"
"Yamato?!" She yanked him to a halt.
"Whaaat?" The boy looked at her as if she wasn't there. Sora frowned. *What is he thinking about? Or more precisely, whom?*
"You're being ...hmm.. distracted somehow."
"It's just.. Christmas," Yamato shrugged indifferently, "I hate to invent Christmas presents. You never know what to give. And nobody helps much. I mean, you can buy a .. a... a toy, but then what the hell he needs a toy for? Or you can ..uhm... get an interesting book.. but he could've read it already!!! Who was that insane person who came up with this stupid idea of Christmas?!"
"Relax, you're working too hard... Because you really love your friends."
Sora bit her lips and watched her boyfriend's expression. He smiled dreamily. Smiled. *Is he thinking of Taichi?!* Sora was growing cold and desperately tried to push back the pangs of jealousy. She decided to investigate this further.
"What are you going to give Taichi for Christmas?" she chirped innocently. Inside she had just digivolved to Garudamon and fired up.
"Umm... the usual... What?"
"C'mon, tell me?"
"I haven't really thought about that," Yamato stared at the decorated shop windows. His eyes were glazed. Several snowflakes landed on his blonde hair and disappeared. He didn't notice. He was thinking... and his line of thoughts, she reflected bitterly, was far away from her persona..
Sora clenched her fists. Why did he lie to her?!! Why didn't he tell her about Taichi's present?
She looked at the set of buildings rising ahead in the dark sky. Taichi's apartment was visible from here. Sora forced herself to breathe evenly.
What was she going to do now?
