Me: My first fanfic! Hey, I'm Zuzu-chan. I have organized this fanfic into Chapters :3 I don't know why, I just felt like it.

Amu: This story includes: Major stinkiness, Tadase as an evil culprit, and…

Ikuto: US.

Me: Re-written for you! Enjoy.

Amu's POV

I walked out of the bathroom with my pink towel with a skull on the bottom and my hair wrapped up in a gray towel. As I opened the door an aroma of strawberries and cream filled my room. It was the first time in years I took a bubble bath, because I was "too cool". Plus, Ami, my little sister, always used up the bubble bath soap.

Ikuto's nightly visit was coming up soon. Every night he would appear on my balcony, but every night Tadase-kun would call me and ask if the "thieving cat" was doing right. I always said yes, keeping my eyes on Ikuto.

Yes, I have decided, fully – I love Tsukiyumi Ikuto.

I know he feels the same way. That night…

"Amu… would you accept… if I… loved… you?" Tadase asked.

"T-Tadase-k-kun…" Ikuto was packed in my closet.

Then Tadase planted a kiss right below my eye, and walked out. My mom smiled.

"Finally got a boyfriend?!"

I glared. I shut the door and at the same time Ikuto crept out from his hiding place. He looked depressed.

"Ne, Ikuto," I said. "Do you have someone you love?" Ikuto glanced at me.

"Yeah, it's you," he said, and caressed me. I was stunned, two confessions in a matter of minutes. My face turned rosy red (very very rosy). I smiled as I hugged him back.

That night, as I was thinking before, was the best night ever. Yeah, sure, I was dazed by Tadase. But Ikuto, I was sure. He loves me. Tadase still might like me for who I am, but I have grown a bit out of him. His teasing heart, breaking mine – it was too much, and Ikuto was there for me all the time.

A tap came on my balcony window. I saw the midnight blue hair just above the frame (the window was quite high). I smiled. I forgot to change into my pajamas, but I was too excited to make him wait. Quickly I opened my balcony door, and crashed into Ikuto.

"Amu-koi." He hugged me. "Strawberries and… cream?" he said.

"Time for trouble ~nya!" A rascally voice called. Yoru appeared behind Ikuto's head. Miki blushed.

"Amu KOI?!" I exclaimed angrily.

"Konbanwa, Yoru…" she said. I glanced at Miki. She had a lot of loves, like me. But since I was grown closer to Ikuto, I guess she liked Yoru more. Yoru smiled.

"Haha, it's the blue art girl! Now, show me what's in that sketch book of yours, ~nya!"

Miki's blush faded. Ran, Suu, and Dia giggled, then Ran said, "SUPER KICK!" and hit Yoru.

"OW ~nya!" Yoru and the charas played together.

Ikuto and I laughed. I was glad he laughed around me, he always seemed emo-like and cool.

"Well, it's winter and it's cold out here, are you gonna let me in?" he flicked my head.

"Oh, yeah, sorry, Ikuto."

He smiled and walked to my bed. He smirked.

"I'm too late for your bath, eh?" he asked.

I sped around. "..Say?"

"Nothing, Amu-koi."

"Pervy nekomimi hentai guy…" I murmured. "I'm going to change. And… I'm locking the door, so don't use any of your pervy tricks." I got my pink-and-red pajamas. Mm, they were my favorite, skulls almost everywhere. Though I always wanted to just wear pink and be myself, I have grown to my disguised clothing.

END AMU'S POV BEGINNING OF IKUTO'S

"Ne, Ikuto, they're beating me up." Yoru's ear was drooped and his hair was messed up.

I smiled. "Ran, Miki, Suu, and… Dia?" I said, looking at the new chara.

"Greetings." She smiled. Her short yellow dress with a white belt shimmered. She was beautiful, I had to admit, with the same golden-honey eyes as Amu.

This was not my character to think about this kind of stuff. I couldn't help it, though – I'm in love with Amu and sometimes my feelings just slip out to be my "uncool" character.

Just then Amu returned with her fashionable pajamas.

NOBODY'S POV xD

"Nobody's gonna see you in those, you know," he said.

"Your point?" she asked, confuzzled.

"You have a fashion taste even when you're going to sleep."

"…Oh, I get your point."

Maybe I'll stop by again when she's sleeping, Ikuto thought to himself. He eyed Amu.

"Hey, do you still like kiddy-king?" Ikuto asked. Amu looked at him suspiciously.

"What's it to you?"

"You know my answer, Amu-koi…"

"Well, kind of. I'm starting to give up." She said it simple and clean, no lies. Unless she was getting good at it.

IKUTO POV

"Ne, Amu-koi." I walked over to her and rested my chin on her shoulder. I watched her cheeks turn like peppers. She still wasn't used to my touch.

"Y-Yes?"

"Say it again."

"Say what?" she asked, confused yet again. Then her cheeks turned to their normal color. "Oh…that."

I nodded, grinning. Could she possibly say it again?

AMU'S POV

Could I seriously say it? Was I not a whimpy kid anymore? My cheeks turned red again…

NOBODY'S POV

"I… Love you, Ikuto." She said it quick. Ikuto grinned wide, reaching his eyes.

"I love you too, Amu-koi." Her cheeks were even fiercer than peppers, like a red laser.

"Gosh, why do you blush so much?" Ikuto asked.

"Not my fault you're an attention-begger!" Amu almost shouted unreasonably.

"Amu? What's going on in there…? There's not a BOY, is there?! Tell me there's not a boy. TELL ME!" Amu's dad's worried voice came through the door.

"NO, dad, there's no boy, sheesh." She locked the door just in case he came firing in.

"Then why… is the door locked?!" he exclaimed. Just in time, Amu thought.

"Because I'm ch-changing!" Ikuto was relieved – she didn't say this lie perfectly like she was saying to him.

"Okay…" her father's footsteps went down the hallway. Then they both heard it – dad's voice - again.

"Ooh, Amiiiii! Let daddy take a picture!" click, click.

They both grinned.

"Jaa… see you later, Amu-koi." Ikuto took a step closer, Amu's cheeks turned red in an instant.

"Bye, strawberry face." He pecked her nose and was gone.
