Morg: Heyo! This story is going to be awesome!
Ikuto: How many of these things are you going to write?
Amu: Be careful what you say. She might bring in Tadase.
Morg: He's in this story, but he'll never be with Amu.
Ikuto: No way in hell I'd let that happen. Speaking of which, why is this only rated T?
Morg: Hehehe⦠um because you guys can't do anything in this story.
Amu: I love you!
Ikuto: She doesn't own us Amu! I could do that to you right now.
~Overprotective~
"You have been assigned a new town Hinamori. Do not let anything happen to the people of Seiyo."
Amu bowed with her wings clasped behind her. She stood from where she was kneeling and made her way out of the room after being dismissed. Her last assignment hadn't gone well, but not even a guardian angel can protect an entire town from a natural disaster without being seen. Now she was finally going to get to prove herself capable. They'd assigned her a new town.
The last angel to work there had pleaded to be reassigned. She'd complained about some boy causing way too much mischief. This intrigued Amu and made her volunteer to work there. Her superiors agreed and let her go.
Amu made the trip during the middle of the night. If anyone happened to look up they'd see what appeared to be a falling star as Amu teleported from the world of the angels to the world of the humans. She landed in the middle of a dark park. Her head twisted from one side to the other as she put her wings away, making sure no one was around to see them.
She spotted a figure of a person lying on the park bench so she made her way over to them. Amu was ready incase she had to erase this person's memories. Instead she found a young boy sleeping. He looked to be about seventeen and had the prettiest shade of blue hair that Amu had ever seen. She felt the strange urge to run her fingers through it, but she refrained. She didn't need to wake him up.
The figure stirred and he opened his eyes. Amu stared straight into the depths of their blueness. She acknowledged somewhere in the back of her mind that they were the same color as his hair. "It's rude to watch people sleep."
Amu smiled down at him. She was an angel. He couldn't scare her. "Why are you sleeping on a park bench?"
The boy sat up and stretched his long limbs. Amu stayed behind him on the other side of the bench. He turned and looked at her again. "Why is it so wrong to use a public park?"
Amu shrugged her shoulders and looked around. The place was deserted and dark. If she were a human girl she'd be afraid of every little shadow. As it was, she's not human. Nothing really frightened her, unless the people she was to protect were in some kind of trouble that she couldn't stop from happening. "Aren't you worried someone might attack you?"
The boy smirked up at her. "So you're worried about me? I'm just a stranger to you."
Amu wrinkled her brow. "Of course I'm worried about you. It's my job."
The boy gave her a weird look and she firmly shut her mouth. She'd said too much. Oh well he could just write her off as a crazy person. She was alone in the middle of a park at night. No girl in their right mind would be doing that.
The boy stood up from his seat and stretched again. He turned to look at her. Amu found that she was about a foot shorter to him. Her head stopped at his chin. He smirked down at her again. "Well if it's your job to worry about me then I'll be good."
Amu didn't believe him for one second. Something about him screamed that he was up to no good. "You will?"
Ikuto didn't let his smirk slip at her disbelieving comment. He was used to girls swooning at his feet and she seemed to be resisting. "Of course I have one condition."
Amu sighed. There was a catch. There was always a catch when dealing with humans. She learned long ago that humans were not blunt like angels. Angels always said exactly what they meant. "What is it?"
The boy leaned closer to her. "You have to give me a kiss."
"I don't kiss strangers."
The boy stood up tall and held out his hand. "Tsukiyomi Ikuto."
Amu reached for his hand. So this is the boy that made the last angel run screaming. He didn't seem that bad. "Hmm. I've heard of you. I'm Hinamori Amu."
Ikuto leaned back down so his face was level with hers. Amu didn't even flinch. "So was it good or bad?"
Amu thought the question over. "Neither. They were just facts about you."
Ikuto shrugged but didn't move away from her. "So I guess this means we aren't strangers."
Amu sighed. "I guess not, but that doesn't mean I'm going to kiss you."
Ikuto mimicked her sigh. "Then I guess I'm just going to have to be naughty until you do."
Amu smirked at him. Her job was to make sure that he didn't get seriously hurt along with the rest of the people in this town. She'd do her job and nothing more. She couldn't care less if he was misbehaving as long as no one got into serious trouble. "Do what you want. I'll still keep you out of any real trouble."
Ikuto smirked. This girl was going to be a challenge and he liked that. "Well Amu, I guess I'll be seeing you."
Amu watched Ikuto walk away from her. She smiled to herself as she moved to sit down on the bench he'd just left. Sure it was still the middle of the night and she was in a dark park, but as of yet she didn't have a place to go. She'd find one tomorrow, until then she might as well scope out her new town.
Amu stood from the park bench and made her way into a thick clump of trees. She knew that the chances of Ikuto still watching her were great so she waited until she was certain that no one could see her before she made herself invisible. (A.N. I know what you're thinking! Why didn't she make herself invisible when she teleported down? That's because being invisible takes up a lot of energy and she had a long way to travel. Just talking to Ikuto allowed her to store some up so she could turn invisible. That is all)
Amu let her wings out as soon as the world could no longer see her. She lifted herself from the ground and began to fly around the town. Most of the town's people were sleeping because of the late hour. She found a few people still moving around. To her surprise she spotted Ikuto climbing into a house through a window. She peeked in to see if he was stealing anything but he was just laying on the bed with a cat. She assumed it was his house. Weird boy for not using the door. Strangely the cat seemed to look straight at her as if it could see her. Amu shook it off and continued with her flight.
Amu finished her round before heading back to the park. In the same clump of trees she put her wings away and let the earth see her again. She moved back to the park bench and waited for the sun to wake up the sleepy town she was now staying in.

Ikuto climbed through his window to his room. He was greeted by his cat named Kitty by his younger sister. (A.N. My cat's name is Kitty! My older brother named her. He's very uncreative.) He snuggled with the cat on his bed not really paying attention to her. She purred as her tail flicked back and forth. She was the only one in his house that loved him without expecting much in return.
Ikuto's thoughts returned to the girl he'd met in the park. It had been too dark to be sure, but he thought her hair had been pink. One thing he was positive about was the fact that she was beautiful. He was going to have a lot of fun with her in the future. He couldn't wait to get her to fall for him.
His cat turned her head and looked directly out the window. Ikuto shrugged off the weird action. She probably saw something fly by. (A.N. LOL!) He scratched her ears again before getting up to shut off his light. He might as well get a few more hours of sleep before he had to get up for school. If he actually went to school.

Ikuto was being good. He was going to school when he walked by the park to see the girl from the night before still there. She waved to him so he walked over to say hello. He stood stunned by her beauty. The morning light seemed to make her eyes glow just a little bit brighter.
Amu smiled up at him. She knew he was the same boy from the night before. "Good morning."
He just stared at her. Amu felt a little uncomfortable. Was it weird to be so cheerful in the mornings? She wasn't really certain. Angels did sleep much. They gathered energy while just sitting in one place. Amu hadn't moved much after she returned to the bench so she was practically bursting with energy.
Ikuto composed himself and set a smirk upon his face. "Good morning to you too."
Amu smiled when he finally answered. "So where are you off to?"
Ikuto raised and eyebrow and jerked his head in the direction of a building off into the distance. "Well I was being a good boy and going to school but then this hot girl distracted me."
Amu rolled her eyes and got to her feet. "I suppose going to school would be a good idea. I could meet the students and keep a close eye on them that way."
Ikuto kept his eyebrow up. This girl had a knack for saying weird shit. "Yeah whatever, if you want I'll walk with you."
Amu nodded and moved to walk next to him. "I don't know what I'm going to tell them though."
Ikuto had no idea what the girl was talking about. He didn't understand half the words that came out of her mouth. "What do you mean you don't know what you're going to tell them? Just tell them you just moved here so you're enrolling into the school here. They'll have you take an entrance exam and then you'll be put into a class."
Amu walked with a bounce in her step due to the extra amounts of energy flowing through her. It'd be better if she could fly around for a few hours and wear herself out, but Ikuto was there so she couldn't just disappear. "Right I get all that, but I don't exactly have a home address."
Ikuto stopped to look at her. "Are you telling me that after telling me off for being in the park at night you stayed there?"
Amu smiled up at him. "Of course not! I walked around town for a few hours before going back to the park to wait for morning."
Ikuto groaned and slammed his palm into his forehead, causing Amu to wince. "Why didn't you say something last night? I would've let you stay at my place."
Amu shook her head. I don't need a home. I already have one of those, it just isn't here. I need something to tell the school so that I can attend here."
Ikuto rolled his eyes and slung his arm over her shoulders. He smirked when she didn't shrug him off. "You can tell them that you are staying at my house until you find a different place."
Amu smiled up at him. "Thanks Ikuto!"
He couldn't help but smirk back at her. Now all he had to do was convince her to actually come over to his house. He showed her to the front office before heading off to his classes. Just as he walked through the door he realized that he never actually told her where he lived. Ikuto groaned and was about to raise his hand when the door opened to reveal Amu.
She waved at someone before entering the room and handing a slip of paper to the teacher. She smiled at Ikuto when she spotted him. He just stared lazily back at her. The teacher read the note before nodding. Amu took a step forwards and smiled at the students in front of her. "Hello, I'm Hinamori Amu."
The class just stared at her. Ikuto assumed that they had the same reaction that he did this morning. She was beautiful. He glanced around the room to see some people with their mouths open. Amu just blinked as she waited for someone to do something. Ikuto finally stood up from his desk. "Amu you're sitting by me."
Amu nodded and scurried over to the empty desk. "Thanks Ikuto."
He smirked back at her and nodded to the teacher to continue. "So tell me how it went?"
Amu smiled again before launching quietly into her story. "Well I went into the office and told them I wanted to register. I gave them your address and they gave me the test. I finished it and handed it in. The computer told them that I was smart enough for this class. The secretary called the headmaster, who happens to be an old friend of mine; he and I talked for a few minutes before he showed me to the room."
Ikuto raised an eyebrow. She was claiming to have registered for school in less than twenty minutes. "How long did it take you to take the test?"
Amu thought it over. "About seven minutes. Why?"
Ikuto just stared at her. No one in this school could take that test in such a short amount of time and still get into the highest level class, except maybe Kairi. "That's amazing."
Amu smiled sheepishly and pointedly turned back to the teacher. Not too long after she and Ikuto stopped talking, the bell rang. Amu took a slip of paper out of her bag and handed it to Ikuto. "Will you show me where my other classes are?"
Ikuto looked down at the paper before smirking up at the girl. "Of course, seeing as all of your classes are with me."
Amu just laughed. "Figures Tsukasa would do something like that after I told him that you were the only person I know."
Ikuto stopped in his tracks. "You really are on first name basis with the headmaster?"
Amu gave him a quizzical look. "I told you earlier that he's an old friend. We're from the same place actually."
Ikuto just shrugged and led her down the hallway. "I suggest you make some friends with a couple of girls."
Amu just smiled her smile and nodded. "Okay Ikuto, if you think that's best."
Ikuto wanted to tell her that he thought it best if she came back to his house and they never left his bedroom again, but that would just scare her off. He wanted her to trust him. "Yeah or else you'll be cornered in the locker room by my fan girls."
Amu stopped smiling as she thought that over. "I wonder if I can use violence to protect myself."
Ikuto could only stare down at her in disbelief. "What do you mean you wonder? You better use violence if some other girl tries to beat you up!"
Amu looked shocked. She didn't realize she'd said that out loud. Ikuto definitely had to think that she was a weirdo now. "I'm not a very violent person. In fact I avoid violence at all costs."
Ikuto just shook his head. "Listen. I'm going to introduce you to my sister. She's going to act all crazy at first because she has a huge brother complex. Don't worry though because she'll be nice to you if I tell her to be."
Amu just smiled her amazing smile up at him. "It's like our positions are reversed and you're the one protecting me!"
Ikuto stopped once more in the hallway and just shook his head as she continued on cheerfully without him. She was nuts! He definitely liked her. He never knew what she was going to say and that kept him on his toes unlike the other boring girls at his school. He caught up to her when she finally noticed his absence and stopped to wait for him. "Just promise me that you'll stay away from the weirdos."
Amu grinned and patted his shoulder. "Sorry buddy, but I can't discriminate!"

Morg: I really like how they meet.
Amu: You made me totally awesome!
Ikuto: I'm sort of cool I guess.
Morg: Don't complain! It's only the first chapter.
Amu: Review guys so we can see what happens next!
