The arrival of the ladies is something that she dreaded some day to day as she dragged herself from class to class. Her practice with Master Spencer did improve her ability with swords a great deal and from Yamato, she learned all the weird and wonderful tricks that she never knew before. But those things will never stop Mimi from arriving in a few days time, Sora just hoped Mimi actually remembered all the things she warned her of.
"Sam? Are you in your room?" Yamato knocked on the door and disturbed Sora who was deep in her thoughts, "Sam! We are going to the library to study, are you coming or not?" He knocked again.
Sora sighed as she gathered her books and opened the door, to study in the library is an understatement, once they actually are in the library, they gossip about nothing else other than the rumors they've heard about the ladies who are going to arrive. Sora normally stays silent during those sessions but the boys thought she was knew something and wouldn't tell them so they teased her and said she was in love with one of the lady who are arriving.
Sora sighed again, if they only knew the truth about her.
"Sam?" Yamato called again and Sora halted.
"Yeah, what?"
"Sam, I don't know what is happening to you." Yamato paused a second, "but I need to tell you that the Library is this way, not towards the kitchen."
Sora blinked and forced up a grin and replied as cool as cucumber, "I knew that! Just testing to see if you'd realize."
Yamato muffled his chuckles of Sora's pathetic excuse and dragged Sora once more towards the library. "You know, you should join our conversation more often," he advised her. "The more you stay silent, the more they are going to think you knew something and did not want to share it with everyone."
Sora rolled her eyes and thought to herself while not realizing that she spoke it out loud. "I do know something that I want no one else knowing..."
"You know what?" Taichi called out behind them and stopped Sora and Yamato in their tracks. "What do you know Sam? That no one else knows?"
Sora thought up a string of nasty swearing words that she would call herself right now, "how am I going to get out of this mess!" She thought desperately to herself. "What I knows, practically everyone else knows and what everyone doesn't know, I cannot tell."
"It is rather embarrassing to tell you Taichi." Fortunately, Yamato came to the rescue. "But since you insisted on knowing..."
"Yes, I INSIST on knowing." Taichi emphasized on the word and waited for an answer.
"You see Taichi...you know me...I am a very nice person..."
"Yes, yes. Yamato Ishida, please cut the crap and tell me exactly what is it you are trying to say." He was impatient.
Sora suddenly felt much better with Yamato helping out of the sticky situation, perhaps he can occupy Taichi long enough for her to think of something to tell. Sora mentally noted to herself that one of these day, she is going to do something very nice for him to repay him.
"You see Sam here," Yamato's eyes glimmed with mischief, "every few month or so, Sam likes to dress up as a girl and hang around the market."
"What!" Sora's attention returned to the conversation as soon as she heard her name being linked up with dress and girl. "That is the biggest and the worst lie I've ever heard!" Sora regretted her thoughts on doing something nice for Yamato, certainly he don't deserve it.
Sora looked back at Taichi, trying to make out his expression and what he thought. But his face is all screwed up with his hand covering his eyes and his mouth pressed into a thin line. Suddenly, Taichi burst out laughing. "Good one Yamato!" He clapped Yamato's back hard. "This is one of the best I've heard in ages! Sam dressed up as a girl and wanders around the market! Sam! As a girl!"
By then, Yamato was laughing too and Sora was forced to laugh with them. And they continued to do so until they've reached the library. Soon, the laughter died down and the trio enter the library looking as sullen as possible.
As the trio entered the library, Sora could not help but notice that most of the guys there are all in their best clothing, their hair have all been neatly brushed and their boots polished. Sora paused and frowned, searching deep into her mind to see if she missed anything but came up with nothing.
She turned around to ask her companions to see if they knew anything about the perculiar behaviour but as soon as she turned around, she gasped. How could've she forgotten!
"Is the ladies arriving today?" She faced Yamato and Taichi and asked.
Both of them was stunned, they all thought she knew. "Yes. They are here already as a matter of fact and some of them are coming to the library later." Taichi answered her in a whisper. "If you want to impress any of them, I suggest you go back to your room now and dress up a little."
Sora rolled her eyes. Dressing up for the ladies! If Mimi saw, she would laugh her head off and tease her about it until the day she dies. "Why don't you go and dress up a bit yourself then?"
"I did!" Taichi hissed, "didn't you notice?"
Sora took a good long look at him, Taichi did seem more handsome after brushing his hair properly but there's no way on earth she was going to tell him that. "You look just like your usual self." She muttered. Sora diverted her eyes from Taichi and took a peak at Yamato, if he dressed up for the ladies...
Suddenly jealousy flared inside her. Jealousy the green eyes monster that Sora thought never existed in her, she was always are very giving and sharing person. She didn't want Yamato to dress up for anyone but her.
Fortunately, Yamato didn't look any different than his usual self. Unfortunately, he still looked as handsome as he always does.
"Why didn't you dress up then Yamato?" Taichi seemed to notice that Yamato is still in his uniform. "What if your lovely future wife happen to be among the ladies arriving today? Couldn't you want to impress her?"
Yamato raised his eyebrows. "I don't exist just to impress other people by my looks. Anyway, I doubt Sora Takenouchi will actually be among this group."
Taichi gave him a stare, he is amazed by how Yamato's memory functions. A few month ago, Yamato couldn't even remember her name but now he is able to pronounce it properly. But he did not have a chance to ask what is on his mind, a loud piercing femine shriek made everyone in the library wince.
Sora burried her face into her hands, no matter how long she has been away from home, she could always distinguish Mimi's shriek. Certainly, after what could be classified as an elephant stampede, Sora found herself nearly been chocked to death by a lady dressed in total pink.
"Oh my god! It's so good to see you again Sam!" At least she remembered that Sora is Sam. "We missed you so much and you never wrote to us."
"Of course I did! I wrote five times." Sora protested, "and Mimi, can you get your arms off my neck! I am suffocating here." Mimi granted Sora's request and let go of her sister, as soon as she did, she began to notice that everyone in the room is starring at them curiously.
"Sam? Why is everyone starring at us?" She whispered quite loudly and recieved a few muffled chuckles.
"That's because we are in the library and the library were suppose to remain quite for study." Sora informed her with a look that could kill. "Unless I missed my guess, we've just made a scene of ourselves."
Mimi blushed and responded innocently, "well at least it is in front of all these really cute guys not in front of my guardians."
Her response generated many blushes and some chuckles but it left Sora wanting to dig a hole in the ground and climb in. She never thought Mimi could say things like that and she was sure that it is doing of the convent!
Suddenly, she realized that Taichi has been nudging her. Sora turned to him and dared him to laugh in front of her face. Surprisingly, all Taichi asked for was a formal introduction. Grudgingly, Sora pointed her hands towards Mimi.
"May I present to you my cousin the lovely Mimi of the house of Takenouchi (A/N: remember, Mimi, Sora are suppose to be sisters) and here," she waved her hand towards Taichi, "Is Prince Taichi of the house of Yagami. This is Lord Yamato of the house of Ishida..."
"Yamato Ishida!" Mimi interupted the introduction. "You don't mean THE Yamato Ishida that is betrothed to Sora?"
"Mimi." Sora sighed, "how many Yamato Ishida do you think there is?" Mimi's mouth formed an "O", she was stunned.
Taking the chance, Yamato bowed towards Mimi in a very gentlemanish fashion. "Nice to meet you my lady. Glad to make your acquintance, I think I'll see more of you in the future as you sister's future lord. Perhaps if you have time, you could like to tell me more of Sora."
Mimi made a choking sound before gathering herself and replying courteously. "Very nice to meet you too, my lord. I am pleased that my beautiful sister have such a dashing future husband." With that, she shot Sora an evil look. "And I would be most pleased to inform you more of my sister of her behaviour and her childhood."
Sora frowned disapprovingly at Mimi before continuing with the introduction of nearly everyone in the room with interuption once so often as the young men try to make a good impression on the lady. As soon as it was done, Sora practically dragged Mimi off to her room for a private chat so she could inform Mimi more detaily of what she need to know and how to behave around her.

I know this chapter took a while, I happen to have lots of tests and assignment during the next few weeks so I decided to post this before I forget again.
And this is going to be a Jyoumi (no, not a michi or mimato). Mimi and Jyou will find feelings for each other eventually...^^
