Where My Heart Belongs: Hell-ride of High School
Sequel to The Cat or The Prince: Where My Heart Belongs
Chapter 1: The First Day of A Long Year
"Amu get up! It's your first day of high school! " Her mother called from downstairs.
"Uh..." Amu nearly fell out of bed as she yawned. Summer hours were something of the past now that it was her first day of high school. And as of recent Ikuto had left to live in his own apartment.
She looked at her black blazer and black and grey pleated kilt. Apparently the dress shirt under didn't matter as long as it was a neutral and students were given more freedom with their outfits. She recalled Kukai wearing a green tie with his, and Ikuto's black and blue trimmed shirt under neath their blazers. She looked in her closet and found a white dress shirt and her red tie. She wondered what the girls wore with theres...she'd soon find out.
"Amu-chan arn't you excited?!" Ran looked bright and eager.
"Yea..." Amu said putting on her clothes.
"It's probably a little nerve racking but Ikuto will be there." Miki noticed her hesitance.
"And we can still character change with you!" Su said.
"No. No character changing...I do not want to be seen as some kind of four person personalty freak." Amu admitted. "I love you guys, but just kinda help me out on the side okay? Plus I have to start doing things on my own! I need to find out who I want to be."
"You're right Amu-chan! We won't be around forever, we'll always be here fore you though!" Dia agreed.
"I'm glad." Amu was kind of nervous about the first day.
Amu wondered when Ikuto might loose Yoru...I mean what did Yoru symbolize for Ikuto...was it he wanted to be a cat? That couldnt be right...either way...she really hoped he'd help her out today. She'd seen that place before; it was bigger than her grade school and she really didn't know many older kids other that well...Ikuto and Kukai. Plus I mean Tadase, Rima or Nagihiko was bound to be in one of her classes...right?
She left the house in a rush and began to walk to school. It felt so odd passing her old school...she wondered how Yaya and Yasuko were doing. It seemed like Ikuto was right that Tadase had a thing for Yasuko. She really ended up being a sweet girl. Her family was nice too; her mother was a music teacher and father was a buisness man. She could play the piano like she'd never heard before, which impressed Ikuto, Utau and Tadase immensely. Even Kiseki somehow managed to get long with Kimiko on the mutual intrests of king and queendom...and Kimiko managed to downplay Kiseki's diabolical attributes by her hopes to rule with kindness. It was kind of funny how it fit.
Amu suddenly was overwhelmed by the modern building. Her grade school had been traditional...this was modern and large. People inside the gate were almost three times the kids that were at her old school. Could she really keep a good rep' at this school like she had at her old school?
"Hey."
She felt a nudge by her shoulder, and looked up to see Ikuto. "Big things intimidate you Amu-chan?" He smiled flirting.
"No...Its just...different." She blushed. Ikuto even as her boyfriend never ceased to flirt shamelessly with her making her blush on too many occasions.
"What is different is how you still wear a tie and you don't need to..." Ikuto looked at her highschool red tie.
"So? What if I want to." She became defended by his criticism.
"As your boyfriend I give myself permission to take off your tie." He grabbed it and started taking it off.
"...Pervert." She tried to back away but it acted like a leash. He took it off and her button up shirt opened up at the top.
"If it was my decision I'd say un-pop a few buttons too..but we'll leave that for just us." He smiled.
"Double pervert." She tried to glare at him, but his cocky smile was growing on her.
"Common let's go. We'll be late if we just wait outside the gates forever." He took her hand and pulled her in the school yard.
She was overwhelmed by two things...
One was the number of girls who had an obsession with Ikuto.
A group of girls cheered Ikuto's name, in a worse fan club than Tadase had of which he looked lamely too them.
"He's so cool!" "So mysterious!" "So dreamy!" "So sexy!"
That was until they saw her and she recieved some hideous glares. "Who is she?!" One boldy asked noticing how Ikuto was holding her hand.
Before Ikuto could answer, the second overwhelm came. "AMU-CHAN!"
Amu-chan's old classmates were becoming her fan club more and more as the years went by. Her female classmates were cheering for her.
"Look she's not wearing a tie!"
"That's so edgy and cool! She's already way more adult then us! "
"So cool and spicy as always!"
"And her boyfriend is a musician!"
"She's so awesome!"
Amu wanted to explain that it was Ikuto who had taken off her tie. Suddenly her neck felt bare. She sunk as the Ikuto's fan club suddenly looked demonic at the word boyfriend.
"Ikuto's got a girlfriend?!" One screamed in anger. She had long black hair and pale purple eyes, who had her buttons popped on her shirt enough that a touch of her clevage was showing. At least Ikuto didn't go for her.
"Yes. I have a girlfriend." He said monotone, challenging their pathetic attempts to flatter him. He took Amu's hand tighter and left them all awestruck and dumbfounded.
"...Is that where you get your ego from?" Amu couldn't help but tease.
"Ignore them. Especially Horishiku Amaya." He said as if he didn't give them a second thought.
"Amaya? Is she the one with the long black hair?"
"And piercing purlple eyes with the loud mouth...yes." He rolled his eyes.
"Amu-chan!" Nagihiko and Rima walked over. The two had started to date over the summer...even thought Rima wouldn't admit it aloud, she'd been a happier person since.
"Hey guys!" Amu greeted as Ikuto gave them a friendly nod.
"What's your first class?"
"History...you?"
"I have history too maybe its the same class? I think you have English right Rima?" Nagihiko asked.
"Yea, I have Math second and then lunch. What about you Amu-chan?"
"I have Math second too...wow that worked out well. Have you seen Tadase or Kukai yet?"
"Not yet, but they're bound to be around somewhere." Nagihiko smiled.
"Amu, meet me for lunch on the top floor. Ill find you at the stairs. Senior classes are mostly upstairs so I'll see you then." Ikuto said.
"Ok..thanks for before." Amu looked up at him.
"For what? Warding off the psycho bitch fan club I have?" He laughed a bit. Amu was surprised that he'd swore, but then again she was kind of had a virgin mouth for that stuff... edgy? Cool? Spicy? Sure. Garbage mouth? Wasn't her style. It kinda worked with Ikuto but she wouldn't let him get too far.
"Yea that and the uniform advice..." She shrugged.
"Taking off your clothes? No problem." He whispered in her ear seductively giving her a small peck on the cheek.
"You did NOT take off my clothes, It was my TIE!" She yelled after him, as Nagi-chan and Rima-chan looked stunned and averted their eyes. She looked over to them and sighed. "Nagi-chan can we just go to class?"
"Sure Amu-chan." Nagihiko agreed. "I'll meet your for lunch Rima-chan, just text me later okay?"
"I will." Rima held a smiled before she turned, and her long dirty blonde hair followed her.
Nagihiko and Amu walked to class and sat down beside one another. She saw a few other familiar faces but they seemed to be the only two really from their old school. She looked out the window...it hadn't been too bad so far...maybe high school was going to be fun...
