A Hesitant Heart
Written by: Anaraxie

Kairi's POV

"Joker?" I asked in a soft voice.
"Who's this?" Asked the girl whom I loved.
"I can't believe you don't know who I am. Yes, my voice got deeper but is there anyone else who calls you "Joker"?"
"C-Class President?!"
"Yes."
"Why are you calling me? Are you here? Will you visit?"

I laughed at the ecstasy of this girl's tone.

"Joker. Do you not remember the promise I made? 'Once I become a suitable man, I will come back for you' And I believe I have become a suitable man for you. Why don't we talk in person? Meet me at the park in half an hour." I said and put down the phone.

Amu's POV

I was stunned. I'm glad Kairi's back but... he still loves me? What if I don't feel the same way about him? Even though these are my own feelings, I can't really tell...

I sighed. There's only one thing to do now.

I got dressed in a white collared shirt and a checkered red and black skirt which reached up to my knees. I put my "X" clip on as well as the bracelet Kairi gave me.

"Haha, looks like it still fits. That means I haven't gotten any fatter." I said to myself.

"Mom! Dad! I'm going out!" I shout as I ran out the door.

I walked to the park and waited for Kairi on the exact same bench I sat on when he gave me the bracelet I'm wearing now. I stared at the ground and looked at my watch. I'm 5 minutes early...

"You've grown Joker." A voice said.

I looked up and saw whom I thought was Kairi. Yes, he did look like the Kairi years ago but he looked a lot taller and more mature.

"C-Class Prez! Is t-that y-you?" I then remembered about my "Cool and Spicy" façade. "How are you? It's been I long time." I said, trying to hide my surprise.
"Good. I lied to you on the phone by the way." Kairi laughed.
"Huh?"
"I don't think I've become a suitable man. I just said that so you'd come. I actually just wanted to visit."
"Oh!"

Ok. This is good. I don't need to tell him whether I love him of not in the meantime.

"Joker. I have a question to ask you." Kairi sat down beside me and looked don at the floor.
"Yeah?"
"When you saw me carrying all those Black Diamond CD's a while back, you didn't get mad. Instead you thought I confiscated those CD's. C'mon now, I know you're not that stupid." Kairi said with a forced laugh.
"Because... I didn't want to believe that you were bad Kairi-kun." I looked at Kairi with a small smile on my lips.
"Thanks... Amu-chan."

I think that was the first time I heard him say my name.
