Summer Sweetheart (Spare a Little Love for Me) Chapter 1
you can read this on ao3 as well!
---
The whole walk home, Dan had a spring in his step, which he supposed was called for, but it surely wasn’t something the cool emo boys he stalked on MySpace would approve of.
Either way, no one was looking so Dan was free to do whatever he wanted. It was rare for Dan to have moments like these - moments where his mind was unburdened and he felt like he could be himself, even if only for a little while.
Feeling content, Dan approached his house with vigor. The fact that he had just skipped school was finally starting to set in. Of course, his summer wouldn’t be all fun and games. The long grass, well overdue for a mowing, reminded him that he still definitely had chores. On top of that, his mom might even make him get a summer job, something that Dan felt entirely unprepared and underqualified for.
While examining the overgrown grass, Dan noticed a single dandelion growing right where the grass met the driveway. He sighed, knowing he could add weeding to his list of summer chores.
But instead of just walking into his pale green house like he usually would do, Dan crouched down lower to get a closer look at the dandelion. It was quite pretty, even if it was a weed. It was bright and yellow just like a sunflower, except it lacked the hairy stem and monstrous leaves.
Acting on a sudden compulsion, Dan picked the sunflower from the stem. It might look pretty if he stuck it behind his ear, a splash of color amongst his flattened brown hair, he thought as he twirled the small weed between his fingers.
Dan shook his head at himself. What a ridiculous thought. He’s not gay, why would he do that? Dan abruptly dropped the limp flower onto the pavement of his driveway and stepped on it as he entered the house.
Once inside, the first thing Dan did was take off his black school shoes and peel off his socks. He made a mental note to throw those in the laundry later.
After that, Dan ran to his room to change into his swim trunks. He dug around in his wardrobe until he found his trunks. He hadn’t worn them since last summer so he hoped they still fit.
Dan quickly changed into his orange and black striped trunks and a pair of blue flip flops. Right when he was about to open his door and head to the pool, he made a last-minute decision to grab a thin t-shirt out of his dresser. You know. Just in case someone from school saw him.
Once fully dressed in his swimming apparel, Dan grabbed a towel and checked his hair in the mirror before making his way to the pool.
Dan arrived pretty quickly. It was almost empty when he got there, save for two toddlers splashing around in the shallow end and a woman on a pool floaty. Dan was looking for a chair to set his towel on when he heard someone shout.
“Hey!”
Dan turned around and saw a boy he didn’t recognize running towards him. Had the pool area been more crowded, Dan would have thought he was calling for someone else.
“Hey?” Dan responded.
“You look lost. Is this your first time here?” the boy asked. He had a wide, friendly smile on his face and short nicely kept black hair.
“Uh, no. I just haven’t been here since I was little,” Dan said.
“Hmm,” the boy hummed. “Well, I’m Phil.”
“Oh, uh, nice to meet you. I’m Dan,” Dan said awkwardly.
The two boys just kind of stood there in silence for a moment when Dan noticed Phil’s clothes. A white button-down shirt, similar to Dan’s school uniform, tucked into black pants. He also wore the signature dark green and gold tie that signified he’s a student at Wormon academy.
It was a prestigious school; many wealthy families enrolled their kids there but there was a handful of kids that were able to go for free based on their academics.
Dan’s father always said he could go there “if you just applied yourself, Daniel” but Dan wasn’t so sure he would even want to go there anyway. There were many days where Dan’s brain felt like it was at war with itself, where his whole body felt heavy and his entire being felt meaningless. Dan knew he could never go to a school with such high academic expectations and manage those days at the same time. There was no way. Not to mention all the rich kids that would surely bully him ruthlessly.
Dan shook his head to clear himself of those thoughts and decided to continue his conversation with Phil instead.
“So, you go to Wormon?” Dan asked.
“Yeah. What about you?”
“I go to Green Meadow,” Dan said.
“Nice,” Phil replied.
“Yeah…” Dan trailed off. “If you don’t mind me asking, why are you fully clothed at a swimming pool?”
“Wh- oh!” Phil exclaimed, looking down at his uniform. Dan chuckled.
“My brother’s a lifeguard here. He asked me to come and keep him company after school,” Phil explained.
“Ah,” Dan replied. He looked behind Phil and saw a man a few years older than him sitting high up on a chair. He was watching over the few people occupying the pool with a bored expression on his face.
He was shirtless; the only article of clothing he had on was a pair of red swim trunks. Dan had to hand it to him, he was fit. If Phil was anything like him… no. Absolutely not.
Dan always had a strong grip on those thoughts. He only allowed his mind to wander there late at night when he could play it off as simple exhaustion. But now?
I’m not attracted to men, Dan thought to himself. I’m just… jealous of their bodies because of all the years I’ve been teased and been called fat. Yeah. That’s it.
Dan was ripped from his thoughts when he heard Phil yell an enthusiastic, “Hey, Martyn!”
Martyn looked in their direction but didn’t seem as enthused about Phil’s new-found friend as Phil was. Nevertheless, he nodded at the two of them before turning back to his lifeguard duties.
“No offence, but you don’t really look that similar,” Dan said.
“Huh? Oh, yeah. That’s probably because I dye my hair black,” Phil explained.
“Really? That’s cool. It looks quite nice.”
“Thanks! I’ve always wanted long hair like yours, but my parents made me choose between dying it and growing it out, so I chose the dye” Phil said.
“Oh, I see,” Dan replied. “What’s your natural hair color, then?”
Phil laughed then leaned close to Dan even though there wasn’t really anyone else around. He then whispered, “I’m a ginger. Trust me, it’s not a good look.”
Dan and Phil both broke out into a fit of laughter. Dan had to admit, Phil’s laugh could light up a room.
After their giggles died out, Phil asked, “Isn’t it technically school hours for Green Meadow right now?”
“Yeah, but I, uh. Well, it’s the last day so I just decided to skip,” Dan confessed.
“Really?” Phil asked, raising an eyebrow. “Do that often?”
“No, not really,” Dan replied.
“Well then, rebel boy. Since you have nothing else to do, want to walk me to my house so I can get my swim trunks? Maybe we could go for a swim together.”
“Oh. Uh... yeah, sure.” Dan was certain his face was bright red.
“Great! Let’s go then,” Phil said with a smile. He waved goodbye to Martyn before unhooking the metal pool gate door, holding it open for Dan.
“Thanks,” Dan said.
This was going to be an interesting day.

This is making no sense
I enjoyed the few 02 kids. They are reacting realistically due to their circumstances. I don’t like how they were being handled in Tri. 
1. I recalled Takeru is staying in the same block with Miyako and Iori. Did he move away so he was unable to hear from them for months? 
Tumblr media
2. No one ask for their help or realise something is wrong when the group did not offer their help when the Real World is under attack? At least that’s so unlike Daisuke if he doesn’t come out and help. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. Did they not call Daisuke and group along for any gathering and holidays? like they used to? 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m sure Daisuke can “help” when his two seniors had a fight with each other. He inherited their crests. 
4. What happened to V-mon, Wormon, Hawkmon and Armadillomon is never explained? They will be found one day, yeah, one day. 
5.  Now the few of them is recovering well in hospital. I assume they had all lost their souls by now knowing how many months they had lost :X. 
Tumblr media
Well, these could happen if Himekawa and their government organization managed to lock the families of the four of them away so no one can talk or make a big fuss over their children’s disappearance. It’s still unbelievable no one from Taichi’s group sense something is wrong when they are so close to them. Ken stayed further away, why don’t Takeru even knock on Iori’s door? I thought they were at least jogress partners?
I wish Tri will handle this better. Even wiping off Taichi’s group memories of their existence works better.
