(Onwards to the story)

Amu's POV:

"Hey, Amu, can you help me study for college?" Utau pleaded

"Uh, I don't know if I can" I shrug

She gives me her puppydog eyes, I sigh. I feel someone hug me from beind but too short to be Kukai. I hear a giggle and I turn around "Rima, what're you doing? Shouldn't you be out with Nagi?"

"He said he was busy" Rima sighed "But can I hang out with you and Utau?"

Utau laughs "Of course. Amu was just about to help me study for college"

"WAS NOT"

"Cool! Can you help me too!?" Rima begs

"..." I sweatdrop "I-I can't"

"Come on, Amu, you can do it" Kukai walks up to me

"No. No, I can't. Even if I could, I wouldn't. I don't know about that stuff, plus, I'm not gonna go to college" I explain

"So what!?" Yaya walks in from outside closing the sliding glass door

"Agh!" Ikuto walks in

"Ikuto!" Utau yelps and runs up to him hugging him tightly

"Aghhh, okay... Utau, that's... enough" Ikuto chokes out

I giggle, Kukai kisses me on my forehead "I'm late for work"

"Okay, bye. Your lunch is on the table, it's all ready" I kiss him, a peck on the lips

"Bye" He grabs his lunch and walks out the door

I sigh "I'm late for work too. I have to go"

"Amu-chii! You promised me you'd take me to your work today!" Yaya complained

"Don't you have Kairi to keep you company?" Utau butts in

"Uh, NO! He has his work too, duh!" Rima answered for her

I laugh "You can't come with me. Maybe tomorrow, but I promised Utau I'd take her today. Then tomorrow you can, then... Rima!"

Yaya pouts "Man!"

Rima laughs "I'll keep you company, let's go to the pool. The beach is too sunny for me"

"Bye guys" Utau waves

I lazily wave to them and shove my hands in my pocket "Make yourselves at home"

I turn around and walk out the door

x-x-x-x

Time skip: 3 hours later (By the way, in Yaya's POV, she doesn't ALWAYS talk in the third person)

Yaya's POV:

Me and Rima have been swimming in the pool FOR THREE HOURS! YAYA'S BORED!

"Hey, you ready to get out?" Rima asked me

I nodded "Yaya's ready, where is Amu-chii? Shouldn't she be back by now?"

Rima agreed with Yaya "Yeah I-" Rima cut herself off and stared at the sliding glass door

I followed her gaze and stared at the door "AMU-CHII! You're back!"

Utau followed right behind her "Hey guys"

Kukai was right beside Amu "I got home early today"

"Kukai!?" Rima yelped in confusion "B-But-"

x-x-x-x

Amu's POV:

I was walking home with Utau when I bumped into Kukai, he kissed me and started walking with us home "I got to go home early today, someone wanted to work a double shift so I volenteered to go home early"

Utau nodded in understanding "That makes sense"

I didn't say a thing, I just kept walking... in deep thought. All's I heard mumbling until I heard Kukai yell my name and then his hand was in front of my face waving like crazy "Huh?"

"Amu! You're like in another universe! Something on your mind?" Kukai started to calm down

"Uh-huh" I nod

"Care to talk about it?" Utau stared at us

"Nu-uh" I shake my head

"Are you even gonna talk to me?" Kukai asked as he stared at me with half lidded eyes

I shook my head. That was the end of the conversation. We finally reached home, I walked outside and saw Yaya and Rima about to get out of the pool. I was followed by Utau but Kukai was walking beside me.

"AMU-CHII! You're back!" Yaya yelped

Utau walked out from behind me "Hey guys

Kukai lazily waved "I got home early today"

"Kukai!?" Rima yelped in confusion "But-!"

"Are you feeling well, Amu?" Ikuto cut Rima off

I didn't answer, I just stared at him not showing ay sign of emotion. I just stared into his midnight blue eyes with no emotion what-so-ever. I didn't even blink.

"Uh" Is the only thing Ikuto could manage to say

"She's not been talking since after her work... something happened that made her freak out and now she's sort of brushing people aside, ignoring them like it's nothing" Utau explained

"What happened?" Rima jumped out of the pool along with Yaya, Yaya looked concerned also

My eyes went blank, I'm trying to think REALLY hard about what happened today. I opened my eyes back up and everybody was staring at me. Ikuto pointing at my eyes "Did anybody else see that?"

They all nodded, I shook my head "I'm gonna go lie down" I mumble and walk over to the couch

I layed down on the couch shifting comfortably, everybody stared at me until I drifted off to sleep

x-x-x-x

Utau's POV:

"She's not been talking since after her work... something happened that made her freak out and now she's sort of brushing people aside, ignoring them like it's nothing" I explained

"What happend?" RIma jumped out of the pool along with Yaya, Yaya looked concerned also

Amu's eyes went blank, everybody stared to stare at her. It's scary, I'm really concerned, she was just fine this morning, what changed? Her eyes went back to normal and she closed them a few times. She finally opened them again and she sees everybody staring at her. Ikuto pointing to her eyes "Did anybody else see that?"

We all nodded except her, she shook her head "I'm gonna go lie down" she mumbled and walked over to the couch. She lays down on the couch shifting comfortably, everybody stared at her until she drifted off to sleep.

"Dude, Utau, care to explain what's happened to my freaking girlfriend!?" Kukai asked me sounding a bit frustrated

I flinched at his sudden question and looked down at the ground "It was all good, everything was fine until her boss came up to us...

FLASHBACK:

Amu's boss came walking up to us "Amu"

"Yes, sir?" She asked trying to sound at polite as possible

Her boss looked mad "If you don't get this done in time then you're fired!"

He stomped away angerily, I looked at her "What was that about? Finish what?"

"Well, ya see, he purposed to me and I turned him down, I have to write an essay about why I won't marry him. We were good friends and we knew everything about each other. We went out to lunch a few times but it wasn't a date. He took it the wrong way so he purposed when we went out the 6th time. I turned him down nicely and then he told me to come up with 20 reasons why I wont" She explained

I was in total shock "What!? Just tell him about Kukai!"

"I can't do that, I have to keep it away from him. He said all models that work for him have to be single. But he said this is the only exception. But I don't want to be fired, and I can't think of 20 reasons. And plus, I have a deadline. Please don't tell Kukai, I don't want him to freak out" She begged me

"I can't keep this from him, and you can't either. What's more important to you, your job... or Kukai?" I asked her with sadness in my aura, I feel so stupid right now, I HAVE TO TELL KUKAI!

She looked down "I can't think of 20 reasons" she mumbled

"But..." I tried to get to her calm down but she just won't!

"No! Utau, I have to think of 20 reasons! If easter finds out that I was fired then I'll be forced to be their singer again. I will be used! Used! Taken advantage of... for bad things" She explained

"So... that means you'll never see Kukai again..."Yeah" She mumbled almost immediately

"I'll help you but I also have to tell Kukai" I told her a bit frustrated

"Fine! But wait until I can't hear you!" She demanded

"O-Okay" I took a step back from her because of her angry aura

She walked away doing more photo shoots, I just walked around the building, exploring and thinking of ways to tell Kukai everything

END FLASHBACK

and that's what happened" I explained

"Oh... I see" Kukai sadly smiled but I can tell he wanted to punch Amu's boss in the mouth

"Please don't hate her for not telling you! She didn't want to see your reaction! 20 reasons! She has a week to think of 20 reasons. If it takes longer than that then he's gonna raise the number everyday afterwards and if she doesn't finish it in a year then he'll force her to marry him" I tried to ease his anger but it obviously didn't work

He clenched his fist and punched the wall "What!?"

"Please try to calm down, we can think of 20 reasons in a week, right!?" Yaya asked a bit nervous

"If we don't then we have a year to think of WHO KNOWS how many reasons!" Rima pouted

Kukai clenched his fists even tighter "We have to! I'm not gonna tolerate Amu being taken away from me so easily!"

"That's our Kukai! Let's get to work!" I laugh

x-x-x-x

Time skip: an hour later

"We still haven't come up with one! Anything we write is gonna sound like an insult!" Ikuto complained "Psht, I can't believe I let you guys drag me into this!"

"It's for Amu. And if you don't like it then I'll make you redo my entire garden twice over" I huffed

"NO! ANYTHING BUT THAT! YOUR GARDEN IS HUGE!" Ikuto kept complaining

"Shut up, you big baby" Rima crossed her arms "You better like it... or else!"

Rima and Ikuto exchanged deadly glares as lightning spark go through them (comically)

I hit Ikuto on the head "Are you gonna write or not?"

"Fiiiine" He whined as he rubbed the newly born bump I just made on his head. I snickered

Amu shot up from the couch, she checked her watch. Everybody stared at her, her eyes widened "CRAP!"

"What?" I ask her confused

"CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! I'M LATE!" She jumped up from the couch

"huh?" Kukai stared at her in disbelief "Late for what?"

"I'm late for crap" She huffed sarcastically, she rolled her eyes "I have a meeting with my boss, I have to go"

She walked over to us and stood next to Kukai. She read the title of the papers we were writing, we all looked at it also. It said '20 reasons for Amu not to marry her boss!'

She glared at me and hit me on the head, she grabbed the paper and wrinkled it up and threw it in the garbage "I don't need your help with this, you obviously have no reasons yet. He shortened my deadline, I'm gonna talk to Nagi about it"

"You're not gonna let us help?" Yaya pouted

Amu let out a giggle "I guess I just have to get fired" she sighed and frowned "G-Goodbye, Kukai"

She kissed him for about... let's say a minute (a comically long kiss) and then broke it, she kissed him again quickly and walked to the front door. She turned around and waved at us, mostly at Kukai "Bye"

"B-Bye!" Kukai waved back, we all did

"Man, you guys kiss too much" I commented

Ikuto stood up from his seat and leaned over the table a couple inches from my face "That hurts, Utau" he put a hand on his chest and pretending to be hurt

I giggled and playfully hit him on his chest a few times. He chuckled "Oi, that hurts"

I kissed him and broke it after a couple of seconds, he smirked "Now, was that so hard?"

I grinned "No, it wasn't. It was surprisingly easy"

"We kissed before, ya know" Ikuto rolled his eyes

"I know" I playfully hit him on his chest one more time and quickly kissed him

He smirked again as he sat back down, I giggled. Everybody else snickered except Kukai "I can't believe this is happening"

Nagi walked in the house and put his back near the front door. Ikuto looked back at him with a playful glare "Where were you, dude?"

"I told you, I was busy. Amu hired me to help move some furniture from her old house to here so she can officially move out. Hey, guys, can you help me bring some of this stuff in?" Nagi asked them

They all nodded except Ikuto who just groaned and got up. Nagi noticed that and chuckled "Kairi is already helping me, he's out there ready to toss it to you"

"Yaya's Kairi is here too!?" Yaya asked in excitement

Nagi nodded "Yeah, he'll come in after he helps move all this stuff in"

BLAH BLAH BLAH! AFTER 3 HOURS OF THE GUYS COMING AND OUT OF THE HOUSE CARRYING FURNITURE, THEYRE FINALLY DONE!

Amu walked in the house just as the boys finished. Nagi lead the crew as they all came in following closely behind him.

"It's humiliating for Amu to see me like this" Kukai muttered

All the girls snickered except Amu. She just stared and then giggled "I think you look hot" she winked

He laughed "That's a first"

Everybody snickered this time except Amu who sighed "I have to go upstairs"

I could tell she's upset and apparently everybody else could too. Kukai stared at her as she went upstairs, his eyes were full of sadness and concern "W-What happened at that meeting?"

Amu didn't answer him, she just kept running upstairs. Kukai was about to run after her but I jumped up and got in front of him, he looked confused. I sighed "I'll go... wait here"

He eventually nodded after a minute of pondering "Okay... but find out what happened"

"I will" Rima shot up "I'm short so it'll be less intimidating"

I nodded "Fine, hurry though"

She winked at us "Always"

x-x-x-x

Amu's POV:

I ran upstairs and headed into my room. I can't believe he cut my deadline! At least he said I only have to come up with 10 reasons! IT'S DUE TOMORROW! AGHHH! AND I CAN'T TELL KUKAI! If I don't come up with 10 reasons tomorrow then I'm gonna have to come up with 20 reasons in 2 days! I heard rapid footsteps coming to my room, oh gosh, PLEASE LET IT NOT BE KUKAI!

The door flings open, so... he... She?! She lets herself in and pants "I really... just want to... ask you why... or what... has been bothering... you" She pants between breaths

"Rima..." I mumble "Nothing's bothering me! I'm just fine!" I lie in my really happy squeaky voice

She stares at me with half lidded eyes is disbelief "You're gonna have to talk to one of us sooner or later. I just thought because I'm short that it'll be less intimidating"

I laughed "You're right"

"So...?"

"Uh, okay... I guess, my boss cut the deadline but lowered the number of reasons. I have to come up with 5 reasons by tomorrow" I explain

Her jaw drops "Then their's no time to waste, hop to it! And tell Kukai"

"Nah. If I have to work for Easter again then maybe we can be a couple while working at Easter" I shrug

"Fine then, let's get to work" Rima takes my hand and runs downstairs

Kukai stares at us as we run down. Wow, this is the fastest I've ever seen Rima run!

"What's up?" I ask them lazily

...Everybody sweatdrops at my question, including Rima and Kukai. I laugh nervously but shrug it off

x-x-x-x

THIS IS A SEQUEL TO 'Say what?' on my other story, SO BE GRATEFUL! It also has lots of drama but Kukai ain't gonna let some pushy boss take Amu from him that easily... so don't worry!

Kukai: You got that right!

Amu: YOU BETTER!

Laura: HE SAID HE WILL, BACK OFF!

Amu: DUDE, HE'S MY BOYFRIEND SO STAY OUTTA MY PERSONAL BIZ!

Utau: *sweatdrop* We all have our boyfriends, guys. We don't need another certain someone bossing us around

Rima: *Glares* Say, who is this 'certain someone' you're talking about?

Amu: She remains nameless

Rima: SO IT'S A SHE! FOR WHAT REASONS DOES SHE REMAIN NAMELESS?!

Laura: Because we don't want that certain someone to break our necks...?

Utau: Yeah, that's it

Ikuto: Are you guys, honestly, scared of this little brat?

Kukai: Now you've done it! Just shut up

Rima: Little. Brat?

Utau: Who said little brat?

Rima: IKUTO. DID!

Ikuto: Huh? I said nothing of the sort

Laura: Nice save *sweatdrop*

Miki: Uh, Laura doesn't own Shugo Chara
