Daichi Sawamura - Space Cadet

((Camp AU where Daichi is a counselor))

(Name) sighed and wiped the sweat off her forehead as she set her bags down on the front porch of the counselors cabin. It wasn't hard getting her stuff up to the cabin, but navigating a new space in the heat would make anyone tired. Sure, she was excited to be a counselor at a summer camp, but she couldn't say that she wasn't going to miss air conditioning and a shower that she knew how to control.

Taking a look around, she took in the sights and made a mental map for herself. All of the camper cabins were positioned in a "U" shape, with a fire pit near the bottom of the U. The counselor and staff cabins were set right across from them, near the open end of the U. To the right of the cabins was the mess hall, and to the left was the theatre pavilion. The whole place was surrounded by a deciduous forest.

From the deck of the counselors' cabin, she had a great view of the lake beyond the cabins, and the various sports facilities near it.

(Name) was almost caught up in the sights and the gentle breeze from the lake when she felt a rather large hand fall on her shoulder. Shamefully, (Name) jumped at least a solid 6 inches off the ground.

She turned around to greet the person who had frightened her, and hoo-boy, he was way closer than expected.

"Hey there!" The newcomer greeted her with a wave and a smile.

His name tag said "Daichi". His face said "boyfriend material".

(Name) did her best to return the greeting, "Hi." Nice and simple and boring.

Daichi seemed unfazed by whatever weird facial expression she could possibly be making in her introduction. (Even (Name) herself couldn't guess) He actually offered to help her with her luggage.

What she hoped was a smile made its way onto (Name)'s countenance, and she graciously accepted his offer. "Thank you, I'm-"

"(Name). I'm Daichi Sawamura. Nice to meet you." He said all this while taking the larger portion of her bags and quickly turning to head into the house.

(Name) was struck with two immediate thoughts. Scratch that, three.

First, the sudden question of how he knew her name. Second, the shameful follow-up realization that she was wearing a name tag, just like him. And third, the slight tinge of disappointment that followed when he turned his back to her so quickly after introducing himself. That could mean a number of things, but most of them were not great.

On the way up the stairs of the cabin, (Name) was surprised to hear Daichi's voice once more.

"So what's your area?"

"Huh?" (Name) wasn't sure what he meant, and she hadn't really been prepared for him to talk to her again, either.

"What area of the camp are you in charge of?"

(Name) puzzled over his question for a second. "Area... Oh! Lake stuff. Kayaking and canoeing and the like." She laughed and climbed the last step. "I almost forgot. What about you?"

Daichi grinned proudly and for the first time, (Name) caught a glance of his shirt. "Volleyball."

He was wearing one of those weirdly popular shirts with random two-word phrases on them. His own shirt said, "Volleyball bird".

"Oh cool! I'll have to come and play sometime." (Name) liked volleyball. Volleyball was doable. So was Dai-

"-and then I'll have to come on a canoe ride with you." Daichi was casually learning on the railing ledge of the stairs.
