It's bigger inside [Samantha]

It didn't take very long, or at least, it didn't feel like it being long, for the two tamers and their partners to reach the real world. They arrived into the Shibuya Train Terminal bruised and looking like a mess. Desmond placed his jacket on Sam's shoulders as they made their way to Desmond's home in Downtown Shibuya. There weren't a lot of people outside that were looking at them, which was perfect because they were holding Digimon in their arms. The blond tamer knew the quickest way back to his little shop and within minutes, they were now safe and sound. Desmond unlocked the door of his shop and carefully locked it back when they were inside. He then showed Sam the way toward the back of the shop and then to the staircase leading to his home.
He removed his shoes and then took a deep breath. He let go of his partner who quickly made his way toward the fridge. The fireball began poking the door as he wasn't tall enough to reach the handle. He looked at the three of them and just kept on poking the door. "DemiMeramon, be patient. I'll open it in a minute alright?" His partner nodded and waited next to the fridge. His home was basically a bedroom, a living room which was also the kitchen, and a bathroom. Not big at all. The floor was made of wood with a large circular rug in the middle. Desmond looked at Sam and gosh was she looked like crap with the dirt and blood."Erm, you can use the bathroom to clean yourself. The towel is on your left and there should be everything else you should need if you want to take a shower." He paused for a second and looked at his room. "Erm... I guess I should give you some clothes..." He wasn't going to let her in those dirty clothes.
He quickly went into his room and went digging in his wardrobe. He looked at his collection of jackets and hoodies. He realized that everything he had was too big for Sam. So he just picked up a long pair of pajamas with a hoodie just in case. With that in hand, he made his way back into the living room and showed Sam what he picked for her. "Here, it might be too big but I guess it's better than what you are wearing right now." And with that, he would wait for Sam to go into the bathroom before going back into his room to remove his dirty clothes and throwing them into a basket. There was a mirror in his room and he took a moment to look at the reflection. Cracked glasses, a bit of blood on his lower lip, dust on the forehead. He didn't look much better than the girl. He would have to wait for Sam to get out of the bathroom and then take a shower.
Without thinking, Desmond just went back to the living room with nothing but his underwear. "Are you alright?" He would ask both DemiMeramon and Hawk if he was around. "Tell me if you need anything. The fridge might look small but it's bigger than you think." As he opened the fridge, the DemiMeramon watched carefully with puppy eyes. "What do you want?" The tamer asked while pointing at random food. The Digimon would wait for Desmond to point to a pack of rice balls that looked like panda's heads. "This?" He asked him to make sure. The DemiMeramon nodded and extended his little hands toward his tamer. Desmond would take out the pack and open it before giving one to his partner. "Do you need me to..." And his partner was already eating the ball of rice. "Heat it for you..." Well, he was made of fire.
"How about you Hawk?" He then asked while still being next to his fridge. "Hungry? Thirsty? Both?"

Desmond wasn't sure why Sam apologized. And then, he realized that he was just in underwears and maybe that made the girl uncomfortable. He instinctively used his hands to hide his manhood even if there were already a layer in between. His face went red and after hearing water running, he sighed and looked at his partner. The Digimon had absolutely no idea why both tamers' faces were red. He just kept on munch the rice ball and look at Desmond without saying anything. The Frenchman quickly went back to his room and took the first thing he saw and put it on. It was a pair of jogging pants and a hoodie. It should do, he too needed a shower and he didn't really want to dress into clean clothes right away. In front of his mirror, the male tamer began messing with his short hair. He then opened a drawer and took out a tiny case. Removing his glasses, He put on some contact lens and blinked a few times to make sure they were in the right direction. He didn't really enjoy contact lenses but the crack in his glasses was making him mad. He would have to go buy a new pair tomorrow, or the next day.
The blond tamer went back into the living room and sat down on the ground next to the DemiMeramon. "Can I have one too? Please?" He asked while extending his hand. The Digimon nodded and held one rice ball to then place it in his tamer's hand. "Thank you." Desmond was trying to teach his partner to say please and thank you. Not that he would meet a lot of new people but being polite never hurt anyone. Desmond would then wait for Sam to come out of the shower and he looked at how small she looked in his clothing. She looked cute. Desmond's cheeks were pink now. "I don't think I have anything smaller..." He said while keeping eye contact with the girl. "There's a basket in my room, on the right. Just put them in it and we can go to the coin laundry later to wash your clothing."
Standing up, Desmond pointed to the fridge. "I'm going to take a shower too. Feel free to take something to eat. Don't give anything to DemiMeramon. He already got something." His partner quickly turned around to look at Desmond with puppy eyes. The tamer sighed, it was quite hard to say no to that face. "Fine, give him a glass of orange juice. The glasses are just there." He pointed to a drawer on the kitchen wall. "Then don't give him anything else. He got enough." He then made his way toward Sam and wanted to kiss her but his face was dirty so he decided not to.
"I'll be back in a few..." And with that, Desmond entered his bathroom and entered the shower. He sighed heavily before turning the water on. He would stay in the shower a bit longer just to think. Did kissing Sam made him her boyfriend? He would like that but after her day in the Digital world, maybe she didn't want anything that would remind her of this day. Including their kiss. He shook his head as he got out of the shower. "You are overthinking, Desmond." He whispered to himself while looking at the mirror. "It wasn't just a kiss." He said to himself while nodding. "Just tell her than you would love to take her on a real date." And he straightened up. "Yes, just ask her on a date."
And with that thought, he got out of the bathroom and waved at Sam. "Hey..." He slowly began to speak. "I know that it maybe isn't the right time to say that but..." And he looked away for a moment. "You know, I've never been with someone on a date..." Maybe Sam would know what was coming. "So I was thinking, well maybe not today but..." Desmond knew that he was just trying to find what to say. "I think that we could, maybe go on a date?" He turned his head to face the girl he has feelings for and slowly made his way to her. "So..."
"Would you go on a date with me?"

Desmond was holding his breath for the little while it took for Sam to answer his question. She didn't say yes or no. She did say that she didn't have anything fancy to wear though so that's a maybe? The blond tamer inched closer to her and his left hand moved to hold her hand. He looked at their hands and slowly lifted his eyes to look at hers. He wanted to kiss her right now but wasn't sure if the timing was right. "I guess... We need to buy you a nice fancy dress then." He said with a smile. He had a few less casual clothing like dress shirts and vests but didn't really wore them more than maybe one or two times. After all, he was kind of a hermit before going to the digital world. "But that can wait if you don't feel like going to your place."
"Desmond." It was the DemiMeramon that said his name. "What is a date?" He asked with curiosity. Desmond didn't even look at the Digimon but sighed none the less. "It is when two persons go out to have fun." The fireball was confused. "We have been dating since we met?" The blond tamer sighed once more. "It's more complicated than that..." He really wasn't sure how to explain it to a child. "When two persons like each other very much, they go on dates." Again, the Digimon was still confused. "You don't like me very much?" He wasn't sad upon saying that, he was just very confused. "No, it's..." And he paused to take a deep breath. "You know, just forget about it." Desmond hoped that the short attention span of his partner would kick in right now. And it did. He just shrugged and began spinning on himself.
The Frenchman sighed once more before turning his attention back to Sam. "Sorry about that..." He kind of whispered. "He's curious about a lot of things." He began wondering if Hawk also didn't understand how dating works. He kind of hoped that he did so that he wouldn't need to explain it to him as well. But then, if he knew what a date was, he might not be very happy about that. Desmond had the feeling that Hawk didn't like him or DemiMeramon very much. It would take time for him to trust them, he was sure of that.
Desmond used his right hand to mess with her still wet hair. "Sorry, don't have a hairdryer." He would then try to comb her hair with his fingers with no real success. He gave up after a while and then just brushed a strain of hair away from her beautiful face. He then moved the hand and gently brushed his fingers on her cheek but didn't say anything. He just smiled at her for a while. He would then lean forward and press his forehead on hers. If she wanted to kiss him, she would just need to move the few inches between their lips. If she wasn't going to kiss him, he would wait a bit before going for the kiss. She could push him away though.
"Do you want to go home? Or do you prefer to stay a bit longer?" Those questions sounded familiar, it was those that he asked when he met her. With more or less the same words.

With eyes closed, Desmond could feel her lips on his. He wasn't sure what made a kiss so special but he could get used to that feeling. He could feel the heat rushing to his head and her skin was so soft. It was something that he wanted to keep going. Sam had become very important to him, even if they only met today. Sure, he had crushes before but with her, it was different. It wasn't a crush, it was much more than that. And he was genuinely happy to see that she too seemed to like, or even love him as much as he loved her. The blond tamer tried to hold on to that kiss as long as he could before hearing Hawk shout at them. His cheeks were red and there was a broad smile on his face despite being separated by the Digimon. He looked away for a moment before going back to look at Sam. From the corner of his eyes, he saw that his partner was looking at all of them with wide eyes.
But it was Hawk that caught his attention. "Erm..." He was going to say that it was totally none of his business on what he was going to do on a date with Sam. Besides, he wasn't sure as well. Desmond would sit down and mess with his blond hair. "I guess we can go eat somewhere fancy?" Upon hearing the word 'Eat,' The DemiMeramon jumped on Desmond. "Can I go too? Can I go too?" He asked rapidly. To be frank, he wanted to be just Sam and himself on that date. He just wanted some alone time to know her better but with their partners around, that might be more complicated. And complicated wasn't something he wanted right now. Instead of answering his question, Desmond just sighed. "You know, why don't you ask Sam?" He was hoping that she would explain to the Digimon that it might not be the best idea to have DemiMeramon with them on their first date.
Desmond then went back to looking at Hawk with a grumpy face. "Let me guess, you want to come too." He said while keeping eye contact. "Let's all go eat!" It was easy to see that DemiMeramon just wanted to eat. He didn't think that it might make their date not as private than his tamer wanted it to be seeing that he still had no clue what a date was. With a heavy sigh, Desmond then had an idea. "How about we all go get something fancy for Sam to wear and we can eat all together." And he paused to look at the girl. "And then, the next day, Sam and I will go on a date, just the two of us." It might not be the best plan but that was what he could think of. "I need to get a new pair of glasses too, I still have my prescription so I won't need to pass the exam again."
And with that Desmond took another deep breath. "Is that alright with you, Hawk?" He would ask the Digimon that clearly didn't trust him being alone with his tamer. It was also clear that Desmond didn't really want the Poromon to be around on their first date. Not that he didn't like him, well it was a bit of that, to be honest. He knew that Hawk was just super protective of Sam but he really needed to accept that Sam and he deeply cared for each other.

To be fair, one of the reasons he wanted to go to someplace fancy was that there are likely fewer people around those kinds of place, right? He didn't want to impress her with his money, far from that but he was a gentleman and a gentleman always pay for the first date. Or that is hat he heard from somewhere. He also wanted to see Sam in a pretty dress but he wasn't going to admit that to her. He took a moment to think as he saw Hawk going to sleep. He felt that now would be a good time to talk about their date. "It doesn't have to be fancy then. And to be honest, I thought that it would be nice try something we, well I never tried before." And then he stood up just to sit down next to Sam. "Like kissing."
"Well, we need to get out and buy food if you wanna cook something so might as well go shopping for a bit?" And then he stood up just to sit down next to Sam. "We need to wash your clothes too." And he smiled at her. "Unless you do want to stay in what you are wearing right now." They also could go to her home so she gets to grab some clothing of her own. Or meet her family. It was at that moment that he realized that he never ask about her age. She didn't look like she was older than him nor that younger neither. But he would feel bad if he was dating a high schooler. "Hey..." He began talking but then heard his name.
"Desmond." The blond tamer turned his head to look at his partner. "Huh?" The DemiMeramon inched closer to them and poked his foot. "Can I dress fancy too?" He asked with puppy eyes. "Why do you wanna dress fancy?" Desmond guessed that maybe he didn't understood that they were going to invite him to the date. "So I can be pretty!" That made the Frenchman smile. "Fine, you can come with us if we go shopping." The Digimon floated and went to hug his tamer. "Thank you!" And with that, he floated away from them. "Oh, let me show you something." Taking out his Digivice, He pointed the antenna to his partner and pressed on the buttons and a beam of light came out of it and the DemiMeramon became a small boy with a huge smile in oversized clothing. Those clearly belonged to Desmond too.
"I've discovered that one day. I don't know how to explain it. It just makes him look human. He still eats as much though." Desmond pressed the buttons again and the Digimon reverted back into a DemiMeramon. "I'm not sure if it works with yours though." And he put the Digivice on the floor. He then moved his arm to half hug Sam before softly pulling her to him. "So what do you want to do?" He then asked. It was funny seeing how small Sam looked in his hoodie. "I don't have much food to cook with but I can order something." The blond tamer would wait a few more seconds before asking a question. "How about pizza? Do you like pizza?" Everyone like pizza right? Unless you are vegan maybe.
"So what do you think?"

Desmond nodded and smiled at Sam when her face went red. Sure, he was that face before but it was rather cute seeing her like that. He even laughed softly without telling her why. He thought that if she knew just the reason of him laughing would make her face get even redder if that was possible. He would wait for her to said what was on her mind before standing up. "I didn't want to trouble you with food but... If you really want to make me something, I can't refuse that offer." And he offered his hand for her to grab and pull her up. "I guess we can call a taxi." He then proposed. "That way you can go out with those clothes and you can change when we get to your place." He paused to think if what he said made any sense. "I'm sure Hawk could be mistaken for a big plush or something."
"Desmond?" The DemiMeramon began poking his leg. "Can I come too?" He asked timidly knowing that he was harder to hide than the Poromon. The blond tamer looked at his Digivice. He could make him into a little boy again and that should solve the problem. He knew that the DemiMeramon just wanted to stay with them. He never really left Desmond's side since they met so he didn't want to be alone, even just for few hours. "You promise you will be good?" The Digimon's eyes lit up and he began to smile and nod. "Yes!" He shouted as he looked at the device his tamer was holding. Desmond pressed the buttons once more and DemiMeramon was now in his human holo-suit.
He began jumping around. He wasn't used to having legs so it was fun for him to be able to run or jump around. "I'm gonna give you a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. Hopefully, it should be good enough." And the Frenchman went to his room and saw Sam's clothing in the basket. He looked around him for a second to see if anyone else were around and then, he picked up the clothing and saw that there weren't any underwears in it. And then felt like a pervert for just doing that. He wasn't even sure why he decided to look at her clothing. That was something private. "Desmond?" The voice made the blond tamer jump a bit and he turned around and hide the girl's clothing behind him. "Huh? Oh yeah, clothes. Just stay there for a moment alright?"
He softly dropped Sam's clothing into the basket behind him and then went to his wardrobe and look for the smallest piece of clothing he had. He picked a pair of short that should cover most of his partner's legs and then look for something to hide his torso. He couldn't really find anything so he just took out a random t-shirt and a red hoodie. "Come here." The DemiMeramon made his way with small hops and then remove the oversized clothing he had on him. Desmond would help him get into his new set of clothes and then give him a pat. "There, go see Sam now." His partner nodded and joyfully began prancing toward the girl but stopped in front of the drawer where Desmond kept his old pair of glasses. "What are you doing?"
The DemiMeramon quickly turned around. "I want to wear glasses!" He said with a smile. "Please?" Desmond sigh and made his way and took his cracked pair of glasses and removed the two lenses with a bit of force. He made sure that the frame was in a good enough shape before placing them on his partner. "Happy?" The Digimon just nodded and ran to Sam. "Look! I'm Desmond!" He shouted as he showed the pair of glasses to her. Meanwhile, Desmond would grab his backpack and hide Sam's clothing inside before going out of the bedroom. "You remember what to say if someone asks for your name?" He asked while walking toward the girl he loves. The DemiMeramon smiled widely. "I'm Demi Edmund!" That should do just fine.
"Alright, I'm ready, your clothes are in my backpack." He then opened the backpack for her to look inside. "So, want me to call a taxi? Or do you prefer we walk?" He had no idea how far her home was from here so he thought that he could ask both options to her.

Demi was still jumping around the living room while laughing. He always found it funny have legs. Desmond sighed, good thing that there was nothing downstairs but his repair shop. "Calm down, Demi." The blond tamer said before patting the little boy with bright blue eyes. Demi nodded and threw his arms into to air to hug his tamer. The Frenchman began laughing, having him in this form always made him feel like having a little brother. "Alright let's get out of here." The male said as he took his keys and put on his shoes. Closing the lights, he saw Demi jumping in the staircase. "Demi!" He shouted. "Be careful, you can hit the ground in that form." That was something Demi didn't think of, not floating anymore. He did, however, jump down the last few stairs making Desmond sigh. As they got out, he locked the door behind him and walking toward Sam's house they go.
Desmond's partner was happy that Sam chose walking. He could prance around, jump and would run with his arms extended mimic a plane. "Look!" He would shout to get their attention. "Desmond!" And he began jumping on one foot. "Look! Look!" It was nothing impressive but Desmond clapped his hands together. "Be careful not to fall." He reminded him. "Don't go too far ahead too." He knew that it was just fun and games for Demi. "Sam!" The small boy hopped around Sam for a little while before taking her hand. Usually, he would hold Desmond's hand but the girl's hand was softer. Desmond didn't mind as he walking few feet behind them. That way he could keep an eye on the trio in front of him. He was worried about Sam. A few hours ago, she got bruised pretty bad. He too got hurt but it wasn't as bad as what she had to go through. So he was ready to catch her if she were to fall. Meanwhile, Demi was swinging his free arms in a very exaggerated way and skip around. Seeing him doing that made him wonder if he was like him when he was younger. He couldn't remember much of his earlier years, maybe because he found his childhood to be boring. Well, before meeting the DemiMeramon, he was pretty boring.
Hearing Sam apologized so often made Desmond smile. "It's alright, Sam." He would say each time she would apologize. "We are not in any hurry, right?" Well, he wasn't. "Walking is fun!" The DemiMeramon shouted. He really was a child that was discovering something new everywhere and it so endearing. Sometimes, he would look behind and see Desmond just walking with his hands in his pockets. "Desmond!" And he let go of Sam's hand and rushed to go hold his tamer's hand. "Why are behind us?" He would ask while moving backward. Desmond shook his head. "Do you want to hold my hand?" He made his puppy's eyes face and that made the Frenchman sigh. He extended his arm and Demi took his hand before running. "Come, come!" He began pulling the tamer to Sam and then went grab her hand once more while holding Desmond's with the other hand. Now that was kind of cute.
Desmond couldn't help but look the big house from the inside. It was much bigger than his small apartment. Hearing Sam telling them that her room was upstairs, Demi was going to follow her but his tamer grabbed his arm. "You are staying here, with me." He said in a fatherly tone. "She will be back soon." There some chairs and whatnot to sit on but Desmond was way too shy to sit on any of them. So he just stood in the middle of the living room while holding his partner's hand waiting for Sam to come back down.
And he saw another person coming down the staircase. Desmond was wondering who that guy was but stood silent. He saw his smug smile and something clicked in his mind. That had to be Hawk. Rolling his eyes, the tamer waved at Hawk and so did the DemiMeramon. "Hai!" He shouted out loud. It didn't take long for Sam to come down as well. Upon seeing her, Desmond let go of Demi's hand and the small boy went running toward the girl and hug her. "Desmond! Look! Sam is pretty!" The blond tamer laughed. "Yes, she is very pretty." He said looking at her eyes. After seeing Hawk pull his tamer closer, Desmond did not seem to be jealous, just annoyed. Sure, DemiMeramon hugs everyone and lack any sense of personal space but Hawk was... Annoying. Desmond took his clothes and placed them in his backpack and sighed as he looked at Hawk.
"Sushi sounds wonderful actually." Desmond would say. "I'm sure Demi would love that too." To this, the small boy nodded. "Yes!" To be fair, he would eat anything. "Do you need help?" He then proposed as he made his way to her. He would go hug her from behind for a second before turning her around to face him. "You are beautiful." He slowly said with his cheeks pink. And without warning, he lifted her off the ground for a second before placing a kiss on her lips. "What are you doing?" The DemiMeramon didn't saw them kiss before. Desmond forgot about that. "Erm..." He wasn't sure how to explain it. "When two... You know, don't worry about it, It's adults stuff." Desmond would gently lower Sam so that she would touch the floor.
"So... That's a pretty big house." Desmond began speaking. "How many persons live here?"

Desmond rolled his eyes when he saw that Hawk made sure that the two tamers weren't to sit on the same side. Instead, he had to sit in front of her. It was kind of better that way, he could see her pretty face and the way she blushed every now and then. Demi took the seat next to his tamer and waited patiently for the humans to tell him it was okay to eat. The small boy would slowly grab the sushi in his hands and shoved it into his mouth. "Demi, eat slowly, I don't want you to choke." Desmond said before taking a piece for himself. Demi didn't think that choking was possible in his fireball form but now, he had to eat slower. He nodded and took time to chew instead of trying to swallow it whole. "Good boy." And he gave him a small pat on his head which made the boy smile. Desmond looked at how Hawk was not looking at any of them. Was he mad that Sam and Desmond were getting along very well with each other? Well, it didn't matter much to the tamer. He had strong feelings for Sam and it wasn't Hawk that was going to stop him for have those feelings.
"Just you three?" Desmond would ask between two bites. For some reason, he felt that living in a such a big place would be kind of lonesome. He was more than happy with his tiny apartment. Sure, another room wouldn't hurt but it was alright. "Well, Hawk will be with you from now on." He said while keeping an eye on the Digimon. "But I guess he would need to stay as a Digimon..." He paused to see what would be his reaction. "I mean unless you can explain to your dad and uncle that there's now a teenager staying with you..." Good thing that he didn't have that problem, he lives alone so having Demi running around in either form was perfectly fine. "He could pass as a big plush or something..." Desmond chuckled just thinking about what reaction Hawk would have if he was stuck into looking like a doll.
The Frenchman did sense a bit of loneliness in her voice. He would have proposed her to stay at his place for a few days but he wasn't sure if her dad and uncle would say about that. If they are like Hawk, supper protective, they would not say yes. He could try to convince them that she is going on a small trip and spend some time with him. They could even go back to the Digiworld, if Sam even wants to go back there. He took a small bite and then sighed. "You know..." He paused to gather his thoughts. He should ask her. So he took his courage and looked at Sam with a shy smile. "You could stay at my place..." Pausing again to make sure Hawk wasn't going to kill him. "I mean, just a couple of days? Tell your family that you are going on a trip or something." To be honest, Desmond never had to argue with his parents, ever. They were there for him, supported him in everything but he never really thanked them. Which is kind of sad now that he thought about it.
"Yes! Sam can stay with us!" Demi shouted with food in his mouth. "Please?" His eyes were while open. It seemed that the fireball grew fond of Sam. "I could..." The blond tamer was sure what he was saying now. "I could talk to your father?" That could end very badly for both of them. But then, Desmond didn't look too shady. A bit too shy most likely but not a bad boy vibe. "I mean, I can tell him that you just met me and erm..." He was going to say that he was her boyfriend but that might not be the brightest idea. "Maybe you and I met online years ago and are seeing each other for the first time?"
