Author's Note: so time has passed since the prologue and so far so good. Now we move on to chapter 1. It's basically something of a remake of a scene from To Remember, Realize but it fits this story pretty well too so here it is with changes. I'm grateful for the support shown. I hope you like this. I own nothing. Reviews welcome, no bashing/flaming.
Scattered Summer
Chapter 1
Ash and Cameron proceeded to settle down for a good meal the pantsless incident forgotten for now. As the two finish eating, they pass their Pokemon some sweet treats, and work on clean up.
As they wash the dishes Cameron smiling asks "so Ash you wanna hit the beach tomorrow?"
The black haired male smiles and nodding brightly says "sure!"
Getting Pikachu and Lucario from their current positions the two head for their rooms and after saying good night to each other, closed the door, and went to bed.
The next day came soon enough bright and early. Cameron ran this way and that grabbing stuff they'd need as Ash filled the gaps Cameron missed without him noticing though Lucario did and smiled at the actions.
Beach supplies now ready the two headed back to their rooms and changed for the beach. Ash now dressed in flip-flops, yellow and black swim trunks, and a open white jacket showing off Ash's chest called to Cameron through the door "c'mon Cameron! Aren't you ready?"
"I'm looking for something!" Was the reply.
Ash sighed. Why do I feel as if he forgot something? He thinks.
Cameron then called "why don't you, Pikachu, and Lucario head down and get us a spot? I'll catch up."
Ash looked at the door, eyebrows raised, sighed, and went to do as suggested.
Reaching the sandy shore and walking along while Pikachu and Lucario argued over spots Ash smiled at the clear waters. This is a good spot to relax. He thinks.
Turning to the two Pokemon he sees they did agree on a good spot and had set up blanket, umbrella, and bag. He smiled at the two and said "you two wait here and watch things I'll go find Cameron."
The two nodded as Ash pivoted and walked towards the streets to get Cameron.
Meanwhile Cameron had finished getting ready and was running through the streets in a hurry, shoes clacking against the ground.
"I'm sure it was this way.." He mutters to himself as he rounds a corner and SMACK!
Cameron is knocked back and falls to his rear.
Shaking his head he looks up the guys and concerned asks "you guys OK?"
The guy growls "it's... nothing." He finishes rather oddly as he looks at Cameron.
Cameron standing up says "that's good I'm sorry for running into you like that, I have to get going my friends are waiting later!" And with that he dashed off, if he hadn't been so absent minded he might have noticed that the guy he ran into was staring after him with a rather dark vibe.
Making gestures to his two friends they began to follow Cameron's path.
While back at the beach Ash kept looking around and calling for Cameron. After another five minutes of this Ash heard his friends voice.
As the other male ran up he panted to Ash "sorry to keep you waiting."
Ash shook his head and said to Cameron "don't worry about it" as he looked at him. He then made to walk back to their spot but stopped as he processed what he just saw.
Spinning sharply and catching Cameron's attention, Ash looked at him and confirmed that he IS wearing what he thought he was.
His orange headband like usual, a pair of flip-flops, and... a purple speedo with an orange waistband.
He blanks for a moment as his friend asks "Ash man, you OK?"
Coming back to reality Ash blushes and nods. "Yeah I'm fine man, um are you sure you wanna wear that?"
Cameron looks at his bathing suit.
"What my swim briefs? Of course I am! They're cool, comfy, stylish, and make me look good!" He finished saying while posing causing Ask to go even redder.
Turning to hide his face he thinks and Cameron walked here dressed like that?! Man he's got guts, I mean I wore short swim trunks when younger but that is something else!
The two then proceeded to head back to their spot where their Pokemon greeted them happily although Ash noticed that Lucario looked at Cameron with a strange expression,embarrassment maybe?
Pikachu just lied on the blanket enjoying the sun while the other three went to play in the sea. As they just goofed off, they were happy not noticing the trio from before now dressed in beach gear walking down the shoreline looking for something or someone.
Some time passed and Ash and Lucario now somewhat tired decided to head back to their spot. Cameron passed and decided to do some body surfing.
As they headed back to shore Ash noticed a trio of guys passing him and Lucario looked at them too an odd noise coming from him as he looked at their auras.
Reaching the blanket the two laid down and let the warmth of the sun dry and relax them.
Meanwhile Cameron laughed brightly as he tumbled along in the waves. Coming to a stop in calm waters for a moment he took a breather. Then a voice called out to him.
Looking towards the source he saw two males who were the guy from earlier friends. As the three chatted Cameron never noticed the guy he ran into swimming stealthily under the water and approaching Cameron's purple fabric-encased rear he moved his hands up steadily, and as they reached his orange waistband he...
While this was going on thought Ash back at the blanket was having a strange dream involving white fabric as he looked at it more the thought hazily drifted into his mind that aren't those?...
"IYAHHH!"
Bolting upright Ash looked around, his dream and its effects temporarily forgotten as he looked around. That scream was Cameron's wasn't it? He thinks.
Then he sees Cameron and the trio from before and was the person in the lead waving something?
Then sound reaches him.
Guy 2 "Nice man you stole his speedo!"
Guy 3 "Let's get out of here!"
Guy 1 "yeah let's leave the naked twerp behind."
Cameron "give those back! C'mon guys."
Looking closer he realizes that Cameron was crouching in the water covering himself and the leader was waving a purple and orange fabric.
Eyes widening Ash thinks they stole his speedo! While Lucario growled.
Eyes narrowing at the act of someone messing with his friends he said to Lucario "get to Cameron and help him as best you can. Buddy you're with me!" As Pikachu bounds onto his shoulder and the duo takes off after the jerks.
It took a good fifteen minutes of searching but he found them by some rocks and approached ready for war.
Looking at them what appears to be the leader had Cameron's speedo stuff in his pocket visible to the eyes.
His goons noticed his approach and one of them said "her weren't you with that guy from before?"
The leader looked at him and growled "so it is. Tell your faggot friend not to bump into people or wear such stupid things."
Eyes widening Ash and Pikachu grow even angrier and on the spot they challenge them to a Battle.
One battle with explosive finale later has the bullies on the ground KO'd with their Pokemon.
Getting Cameron's swimsuit back looking at it he thinks this is bigger than I thought...
Then realizing what he was thinking he turned bright red and shook his head getting an odd look from Pikachu.
Looking at the trio he smirks deviously and gets revenge.
It would be a few hours before they wake up again and when they did they would themselves naked with their swimsuits tossed up on some high rocks.
Getting back to Cameron Ash found him wrapped in the now wet blanket with Lucario standing guard with all their stuff packed up.
Looking up scared Cameron's eyes brighten when he sees what Ash has.
Ash smiled and tossed them to his friend who then proceeded to try and put them back on under the blanket.
The two decide to head back before something else happens and so they set off while Ash fills Cameron in on what happened making him laugh.
"Thanks for that man." Cameron says.
Ash smiled.
