~A Sky Full of Love~

Amu's POV

I squeezed my eyes shut as tight as I could and put my hand to my ears, as I desperately tried to block out the sound of my parents fighting again. This time there was the crash of my mom's favorite vase breaking. Finally I couldn't stand it anymore. I opened my balcony door and leaped down. I ran as fast as I could and before I knew it, I was at the park. Tears gathered at the corner of my eyes when I remembered all the happy times I had spent here with my family. Mom would pack one of her delicious bentos, Ami and I would play on the swings, and mostly…. everyone would be smiling. I numbly sat down on a swing and sighed. Crack! The sound of a stick snapping told me I wasn't alone. All of a sudden a teenage boy, perhaps slightly older than me, tumbled out of the park's hedge. He had a violin case strapped onto his shoulder and was bleeding from a cut on his leg. I opened my mouth in surprise but clamped it shut when he ran away in to bushes and two strange men in black suits burst into the park. I gulped when I saw they were carrying guns.

"Hey you there!" one of them shouted, " Have you seen a teenager carrying a violin case on his back around here?" I was so flustered and scared I could only mumble a "no". They scowled and trampled away into a car that was waiting for them on the edge of the park. As sighed with relief, clutching my hand to my chest, the mysterious boy all of a sudden leaped out of the bushes and crash landed in front of me. I squealed with surprise until he jumped up and clamped a hand over my mouth.

" Shhh!" he hissed, " Can't you tell I'm being chased?" When at last the black car drove away the boy released his iron grip. He turned around and grinned at me. " Thanks for not blabbing." I flushed scarlet. He had a very beautiful smile.

"I…. It's n…nothing spe...cial" I stuttered hopelessly. I turned around so he couldn't see my reddening face. I almost jumped out of my skin when he grabbed my wrist and said " Hey I need to thank you, how bout we go out tomorrow for some fun?" He flashed another one of his brilliant smiles and I knew I couldn't refuse. "Cool what's your name? I'm Tsukiyomi Ikuto."

"Amu" was all I could mumble.
