A/N: I'm on a roll. I just have a lot of ideas for this story. It's easier than The Love Between 2 Of The Chosen Children because I'm writing it only from one POV instead of multiple, and also it involving an original character I get to develop his character on my own.

Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon, Bandai & Toei do. Any song lyrics I copy are also not mine, they belong to the writers. The only thing I own is my original characters

Chapter 3: The Nightmare

One month has passed since we moved to Odaiba, and everything has been going well. Takeru is my best friend and I can trust him with my life. My grades in school are very good. I got to meet V-Mon, Hawkmon, Armadimon, Tailmon & Wormmon. They were all very kind. I also met Hikari's brother Taichi who told me he has a Digimon named Agumon. I also met Takeru's brother Yamato & his girlfriend Sora who as you guessed it both have Digimon too. Yamato's Digimon is Gabumon and Sora's Digimon is Piyomon. We're on Winter Break right now, and we just got back to Odaiba after spending a few days in South Lyon visiting my family & friends. I missed Takeru and everyone else while I was gone. I'm going to sleep now though. I'll catch up with you later.

Dream Sequence

I'm in South Lyon at school under a tree, and a short chubby guy with dark brown hair looks at me and kisses me then he takes my hand and we go to the mall and look around in some stores then I return home, and then I get a Myspace message from him that says.

Wanted to wait to say all this till after the mall, didn't want to ruin a day, but the mall affirmed it. Those feelings i had for you were very short term, not love more like infatuation. They're gone, completely. Once i got the infatuation out of my head i realized that you aren't a gentleman and you aren't the guy i want. Don't ask why.

I can't see myself with you, i need to focus on me and bettering myself not having to deal with you. It is not worth my time.

You can tell everyone i'm an asshole whatever. I know who i am and i love me. You can tell your brother to beat me with a baseball bat- but that would land him in juvie, so i don't encourage it.

Yes, this means no skype, no phone calls, nothing, i have no desire to fulfill anything with you.

So with this i say goodbye, have a decent life and try and do something with it aside from complaining about your prison cell of a room- be grateful for what you have.

I start bawling, and wishing things were different. I couldn't believe Mason would do this to me after all we had.

Reality

I scream out of bed as I remembered that incident did actually happen about a month before I moved to Odaiba, but why now after having Takeru as my best friend and everyone else, but they don't know about it. I can't tell Takeru how I am yet. I want to wait still, so I can't tell him. My feelings for him grow more and more each day. Another week has passed and school is back in session, and I'm excited to be with everyone again. I missed them as the only one of them who was here when I came back from South Lyon was Takeru. After school Takeru said "Hey Tommy, I want you to meet someone new today." I didn't refuse, so I followed Takeru to this nice apartment building where we are meeting this mystery person.. Takeru knocks on the door and a young man with short red hair answers the door and says "Hello there Takeru. Oh, and who is this with you." Takeru then says "Koushiro, this is my friend who moved here last month from America named Tommy." "I then say "Hello there Koushiro, I'm Tommy, and it's nice to meet you." Koushiro then says "Oh yes, Takeru told me about you. You're the guy who has met a lot of our Digimon, and really like them. One of our friends who also lives in America has one too. Her name is Mimi, and her Digimon's name is Palmon. I also have one, and his name is Tentomon." After that Koushiro invited us to dinner at his apartment. I then call my dad to tell him I'll be home late as I'm having dinner with Takeru. He then says "OK, but we need to talk when you get home."

After dinner we said our goodbyes to Koushiro, and headed home. I looked into those cerulean eyes of Takeru's and say "My dad wants to talk to me when I get home. He sounded very mad." Takeru looked at me and said "Why? I don't think you have done anything wrong." "I'm not sure either buddy, but I hope it's not too bad." Takeru & I exchange our goodbyes, and I head home, and then my dad was sitting in our chair waiting. "So, son" he begins "I hear you're doing bad in school?" I then say "What?" My dad continues "According to Mrs. Harris you've been bombing a lot of your tests as you don't study. I then interrupt "I have a C in that class, that's still passing, and as long as I pass I don't care." "Just passing doesn't get you in college. From here on in you're not going out with Takeru unless it's on weekends as you're studying your English two hours a day." By the time he ends his sentence he is yelling, and then he says "You're nothing but a worthless piece of shit just like your fucking mother. If I hear of any more bad grades your ass is on a plane back to South Lyon to live with your grandparents, do you understand me?" I then say sobbing "Yes, sir" and then I sulk into my room sobbing onto my pillow. A few minutes later I hear a knocking on my bedroom glass door. It was Takeru.

He lives one level above me, so he must have climbed down from his balcony onto mine. I then let him in and once I look into his cerulean eyes I start sobbing into his arms. After about a minute of sobbing he looks at me and says "Tell me what's wrong Tommy." I then say with tears still rolling down my face "When I got home my dad went on a rampage for my C in English. He said I can't hang out with you except on weekends, and that if he hears one more thing about bad grades that I would be back in America. I don't want that Takeru, I don't. I want to be here with you and all the others. You guys care about me so much. Takeru then says "Tommy, look at me, I promise that you never have to go back to America. If your dad tries to make you I will take you in myself. I'll have to convince my mom, but she's rarely ever home, so I don't think it will be a problem. I don't want you to go either. It would hurt me. I knew I heard some screaming coming from over here as I was walking by as I was going to spend more time with you anyways. I listened to what your dad said. He's not as nice as he was when I met him." I then say "That's the thing Takeru, he acts all nice and friendly around others, but then when they're not around he's mean and very scary." I am still sobbing in Takeru's arms. He's giving me a nice and gentle embrace. Takeru then says after a few minutes "Tommy, I hate to do this to you, but I have to go to bed now, but I'll see you in school tomorrow. I hope you feel better. Good night." "Good night to you too Takeru." I said then he was gone.

A/N: Yep, Tommy's dad is the abusive parent, and it does get worse in future chapters. Jou is the only Chosen who hasn't been introduced yet, he will be next chapter. Tommy's feelings for Takeru are just getting to be more and more. Is Takeru Gay? We shall see in a future chapter.
