Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ A Walk In My Shoes ❯ You Don’t Know Me ( Chapter 3 )

A Walk In My Shoes

ST: Hi Lo everyone.

Whoo Hoo! The third chap!

Okay, I'm sure that last one was a shocker, huh?

Like always, I ask for you to review. I'd like to know what should stay and what should go, to give the people what the people want.

Oh, and about all the typos and spelling mistakes, please ignore. I always reread and do spell check, but sometimes some slip through and when I read it on the site, im all like crap! So, please excuse my mistakes!

Oh, and I do NOT own Digimon. Some other lucky people do. Curse my luck…

Alrighty, on with the story!

Chapter 3: Enter Davis Motomiya- You Don't Know Me

*************

Racing down the sidewalk was a blue topped, khaki bottomed, brown-headed blur.

Once Davis finally caught up with his friends, school was only a few blocks away.

"Hey Dai," the group of four one by one greeted.

"Hey guys," he panted as his heart rate slowly crept back down. "Sorry, I was running late."

"Don't worry about it Davis," said a tall blonde with brilliant blue eyes.

"Yeah," commented a petite brown-headed beauty full out in pink. "It's not like we wouldn't wait for you," she smiled sweetly.

"Well, I honestly think we shouldn't've waited there by his apartment that long," snapped a lofty, hot headed, four eyed girl who walked beside Davis with her hands folded behind her head and her eyes closed in what seemed as irritation. "We wasted like, five minutes."

"Leave him alone, Yolie," piped a small, yet firm voice at the other end of the girl with the glasses. "It was only five minutes."

"Exactly!" Yolie exclaimed. "Five precious minutes of my life down the drain. All for Davis!"

Davis smiled his famous I'm-a-goof-who-lives-a-happy-life face and replied, "Whatever you say, Yolie, whatever."

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

Yea, what I said didn't make much sense. I've got a rep to maintain here. Sure, I wanted to blow up in her face, but the Davis they know isn't smart enough to say something like, "Up yours," or "Go to hell." Oh, no. Davis is too, Davisy. If I did anything like that they'd probably suspect something. I don't need suspicion.

Nor do I need Yolie in my face. So, let her have that one. But just this once. Next time, well, next time she'll see.

Oh, about these kids, they're my friends.

The short kid beside the chick with purple hair and glasses is Cody. He's a nice kid, but still young. He's respectful and trustworthy, every parent's dream. He's still at Odiba Middle School.

Then there's the freak that insulted me, yea, but she's okay, really. But no sense at all, she completely speaks from her heart. Hey, you've gotta respect the girl for that. Yolie and I haven't always been on the best of terms, but, then again, we probably won't ever be.

Then, on my left, is, well, the most beautiful thing in the world. Kari Kamiya. She's just perfect in everyway. When she was younger, she was a pure flower in bloom. And now she has blossomed into a wonderful lady with a slight edge about her. In other words, over the years she's changed from a goody-goody to don't-mess-with-me-cuz-I'm-not-into-your-crap-and-if-you-do-I'll-kick-your- ass type of attitude. I think she gets it from her brother, Tai.

About two years ago, I got the guts to tell Kari how much I care about her. But I got shot down, easy though. She went easy on me. So, my love/crush has basically melted to a strong and loyal friendship, even though were not really that close. ^^;;

On the other side of Kari was Takashi, the guy whom I lost Kari to. That dirty blonde was always with her, like they were magnetically attracted or something. TS, TO, TP, TN, any combination you could possibly think of, I used, trying to get the upper cut. But I guess I'll never compare to TK. He's basically everything I could never be. Popular, smart, athletic, good with the girls. I mean, the gaggles of giggling girls have googled him for years. `He's so nice!' they'd rave. Oh pulease! Don't make me puke. Not to mention his brother's a freaking rock star. Does the pain ever end?!!?

Okay, I've gotta fess up. TK is an okay guy worthy of Kari's affections. I can still hate his guts, though! That no good smarty-pants-basketball-star… thing! Damn you!

`Who am I?' you ask? Well, I'm known as the soccer player MVP. Oh, hell ya! But, then again, soccer isn't as great as basketball. Oh, no…. Ayways, it doesn't matter. I'm basically failing all my classes, don't ask why. I don't even know. Nor do I care. Then there's my permanent record. Well, the thing about it is that it has its own cabinet. Okay! I'm sorry about those four times I've kicked a soccer ball through the window! But it was only four times, not that bad considering the stuff some kids get put in detention for. Well, just for those four times, I've been red markered. Which means anytime I do anything (and I mean anything) even remotely suspicious, I get detention. Which is like everyday.

Yea, that's me. That soccer-playing freak who's in detention everyday and can't lay a girl. And you wonder why I don't care about my grades.

Luckily my small groups of friends keep me company. We are the Digidestined. You know, the kids that saved the world from all those evil Digimon and that scum, Malomyotismon. But you don't wanna hear that story, do you? Didn't think so.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

As the four sophomores walked up to the school, a voice rang through the crowd of rushing teens.

"Davis!"

Davis turned his head towards the sound of his name, seeking out for the caller. Jogging up behind him was a blue haired boy about his age.

"Hey Ken," Davis cheerfully smiled as the boy caught up and was catching his breath.

"Well," Ken panted. "Ready?"

Davis glanced at the building of doom in front of him. "Yeah," he smiled back at his friend.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

That was Ken. Yes, the famous Ken Ichijouchi. His parents allowed him to go to public once he started high school.

So, now all us Digidestined will have attended Odiba High School. You know, once Cody gets in next year.

The older kids have already graduated, of course.

Tai, yea Kari's brother. The big haired guy. Anyways, he went to Kyoto University. So did Sora and Izzy.

Joe went to Tokyo Med and Mimi still lives in America.

Matt decided to ditch school and work full time for his band. Is that cool or what? He still lives with his dad, though.

It's pretty cool now that Ken's around. I mean, I'm a little more known around here, you know, other than the Tai look-a-like. Ken and I and are pretty close, best friends. Other than that, everything else kinda sucks.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

As Davis glanced wearily out the nearby window his mind began to wonder.

Davis…

Slowly his eyes drooped and his head began to nod.

Davis…

`whos calling me….'

Suddenly his chair was pushed forward from behind and he jolted into the consciousness along with the table in front of him.

Rubbing his eyes he turned around to see what disturbed his almost peaceful slumber.

A giggling Kari and Yolie smiled at him from the table behind him. He stuck his tongue out at them distastefully.

"Motomiya."

Davis popped his tongue back into his mouth as he turned around to come face to face with his Physics teacher, Mr. Takani, who was glaring at him. Davis weakly smiled and the teacher sighed with frustration as he returned to the board and his lesson.

------------------------

After class and as everyone shuffled through the door, Davis was stopped as he passed by Mr. Takani's desk.

"Davis, a word, if you would."

`A word if you would,' Davis mocked in his mind as he paused and rolled his eyes before turning to face his teacher.

"Now," he began while sifting through random papers on his desk, what happened to be last night's assignment for the class. "You are a very bright kid…"

He picked out a particularly rumpled paper that was scribbled on a bit, with Davis' name scrawled half-heartedly on the top. He continued, "But you don't put any effort in you class work or homework. You never pay attention, always daydreaming or sleeping."

Davis raised his eyebrows, giving Mr. Takani a look of `so what?'

He placed the paper back with the others and sighed. He then opened a green book filled with all the students in his class and their grades. "Let's see," he said as he trailed down trough a list of M's. "Motomiya, Davis, here we are. On your last quiz you received a 98%, better than any student in all my classes. And that was a pop quiz."

He looked Davis dead in the eye with a serious look, causing Davis to shift his feet and stuff his hands in his pockets.

"Is there anything wrong, Davis? At home or anywhere else?"

Davis hesitated before defensively replying, "No sir, what makes you think that." It wasn't a question, it was a demand.

His teacher unsurely looked at Davis and tried again, "Are you sure? No problems with friends, peers, girls, family?"

Davis flinched and quickly snapped, "No sir."

Mr. Takani uncertainly observed Davis' uncomfort before sighing again. "Okay Davis, you may go."

As Davis began to exit, his teacher called out, "You know, you can come talk anytime you need to or want to."

He drug his feet all the way to his Algebra class, his fists clenched tight in his pockets.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

Who the hell does Mr. Takani think he is? A therapist?

Oh yea, like I was gonna tell him my dad's been an abusive alcoholic ever since my mom committed suicide and beats me on a daily basis.

Oops.

**************

Uh, oh! Another cliffhanger. It's making you wonder, isn't it?

Wow, this is the longest chapter so far, isn't it? I'm sorry I can't make `em longer, it's just the way the cookie crumbles. ^^;

(Dai appears out of nowhere) Dai: Hey! Are you ST?

ST: Uhh… yea… ;;

Dai: Grrrr… n.n *begins to get all whiny* You made me a LOSER!

ST: ><;; Uhh… I couldn't help myself?

(TK appears out of `nowhere') TK: You made me bisexual?!!?? What's wrong with you!?!?! X.x;;

ST: @@;; Sorry??

Dai: *suddenly smiles* Oh, that's okay! Do whatever you want!

TK: *slaps Dai on the back of his head* No, you stupid! *glares at ST* We're gonna sit here just to make sure you don't do anything stupid to us.

ST: *begins to laugh evilly* HA HA HA HA!! Have you read the summary?

(Dai and TK look at each other with puzzlement all over their faces) Both: No.

ST: HA HA HA!! You picked the wrong story to filter! I'm gonna make sure your lives turns into HELL!

Dai and TK: n.n;; Why?

ST: Cause I want to!!! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Dai to TK: She's a bit screwy, eh?

TK: Yeah, I'd say so…

Dai: Well, R/R everyone.

TK: Yea, until next time….

(TK and Dai look worriedly at a crazy ST who is still laughing evilly)

Tbc….
