With multi\_fields setting, will the field be stored twice by default? Is there a need to set one field to store=no?

Ex.  
"tweet":{  
"type": "multi\_field",  
"fields": {  
"tweet":{"type":"string", "index":"not\_analyzed", "store":"yes"},  
"tweet\_analyzed":{"type":"string", "index":"analyzed", "store":"no"}  
}  
}

Thanks!
