It's been awhile since I've last updated, a lot of you may know the personal problems that I went through, but enough is enough and here I am with another chapter. Truth be told I didn't really know where to go with the story, so I decided to do an sitcom trick, despite that being something that doesn't really sound like it's appropriate to go along with this type of story, and well I want to see if yio guys can figure what I did or what I plan to do.

Disclaimer: I don't own digimon, but I feel chilled out writing this disclaimer.

P.S. I'm a Watchmen fanboy and whoever, if anyone at all, can get the Watchmen allusion that I use in this chapter, they get a special present. No joke.


"You know, you could've stayed home if you wanted to. I'm sure I wouldn't have had that much trouble finding the place."

Yamato shrugged at what Jun said as he carried two of her three bags, her holding on to only the smallest one, and not really noticing where he was walking he stepped into a puddle that ended up soaking most of his right foot. She laughed at him in the way that she always did bursting with life, and Yamato just sighed annoyed that it had rained earlier, and after a few more steps, ones that he made sure avoided any puddles of course, he somewhat sort of wished that Jun had decided to move in with him, Taichi, and Sora on a dryer day. He wasn't a big fan of rain…or people all that much.

"Eh, I prefer picking you up myself. Better safe than sorry, June bug."

Shitty rainy day or not, Yamato always enjoyed using Taichi's nickname for Jun, and he didn't even have to ask to know that Jun was fond of it as well. It was a dumb nickname, just kid shit really, but it was one of those things that always caused the nostalgia goggles to come out. No matter how fucked up a person's life is or was, when looking back on it the good moments always seem all the more better. Shining, like a brand new quarter stuck in a month old dog turd.

"I can take care of myself Yamato."

Ah, good ol' headstrong Jun. It was something about her that bothered him when they were dating, but now that they were just friends, though Yamato had the feeling that Jun might still want to be more than that, it was something that he admired about her. Say what you will about the crazy, perverted, and coarse young woman; Jun didn't take shit from anybody.

"I know, it's the other people I'm worried about."

Well, except from maybe Yamato.

"Jackass."

Yamato didn't reply with anything, and was just glad that they were almost to his apartment since his arms were getting tired from carrying Jun's bags. It was a long ways from the train station, and in hindsight it would have been much smarter to just catch a cab or bus instead of deciding to walk. Though, much of his tiredness could be attributed to the fact that he hadn't smoked anything all day, instead helping Taichi and Sora fix the place up to make room for Jun. He almost didn't notice that she said anything.

"Hey Yama?"

Almost.

"Hmmmm?"

"Are there any straight hotspots around here?"

He looked at her from the corner of his eye, and he could honestly say that Jun had caught his interest. She was the brand new resident in one of the gayest parts of Japan, and she was asking for a place to meet straight guys in this of all places? Hell, this just goes to show that all the jokes about Jun being insane do have at least a little bit of truth in them.

"Why?"

"You don't really expect me to spend my first day in a new city not having sex do you?"

They crossed the street as she said this, Yamato's apartment building barely coming into view, and he let her words sink in. Taichi was a different case, but when it came to the two of them they had family lives that were to put it simply, shit. That's why they always needed an outlet in their lives, friendship and an odd game every now and then when they were younger, vices and sex when older, that's what the two of them needed just to get by. It was something that always made Yamato question, why Taichi surrounded himself with people that were completely fucked up; people that weren't like him, normal.

"If you want to meet straight guys you got to leave Doyama and check out the other parts of Osaka."

It was a simple enough answer to give to his partially crazy ex-girlfriend. From the distance that he was at, Yamato glanced at the front door of his building, glad that they were getting closer to it with each passing second, and he sighed really wanting a cigarette. He couldn't believe that he was actually going to help Jun get laid.

"Alright, let's all go tomorrow?"

"Sure, if Taichi and Sora are okay with it. But are you sure you want to get involved with someone already? You barely got here."

He didn't look at Jun already knowing that she was going to dismiss him, but hey he had to say something. Ever since she had become single Jun also became, as she would call it anyways, 'sexually free'. It wasn't something that Yamato particularly liked since the more 'free' she was, the more she gave him to worry about. He didn't like knowing that she gave blowjobs to random tourists that she met, or fucked married men twenty years her senior, but he made sure to say only minimal things about it. It wasn't his business, and well if Jun wanted to slut out, she had his support.

"I'm not looking for a boyfriend, all I want is a guy with a cute face and a big dick, and that's good enough for me."

"You sure?"

Fuck, he stepped in a puddle again. Naturally Jun laughed, but this time Yamato wasn't sure if it was because of his now wet left foot, or if she had somehow perceived him to be a prude since he wasn't exactly very enthusiastic about getting her sex. As always, the laugh was full of life.

"Yeah, I'm sure."

Nothing more was said as they then walked in silence for just a little bit, but of course Jun was the one who broke it when they finally reached the front his building. So, this was her new home eh?

"So, Taichi and Sora are really okay with me living here?"

"Don't worry about it, Sora's cool and you know Taichi loves you."

He heard her grunt as if she was taking what he said about Taichi to be something sappy about friendship and what not, and then he looked over at her and smiled. He could tell that there was something on her mind. Honestly though, with the lives they've had, there was always something that was rushing through their thoughts.

"Do you ever miss it Yamato? When it was just you, me, and him versus the world?"

Versus the world? Huh. Leave to Jun of all people to ask him a question that was actually thought provoking. Honestly, he didn't like thinking of things that he missed in the past, or things that had hurt him, but as Yamato took some steps to enter his apartment he knew that he agreed with Jun on this point. No matter how much he wanted to, he couldn't view Osaka as his home; it just wasn't Odaiba.

"Yeah," There was something about the future, something that he wasn't sure what it was, that made it seem just a little bit darker every day. And no matter how bad it had been, no matter all the broken bones and bloody faces that became the basis of his childhood, the past just kept shining brighter, "I miss it."


I don't know why, but this chapter to me seems bigger than my other ones. I don't think it is though. Weird. Anyways, yeah I wanted this chapter to convey the feeling of nostalgia, and I'm satisfied with how it came out. After a long wait, did I pull out a chapter you guys enjoyed? Anything specific you may want to see in the future?
