LizzyBird-But that would be completely cool and awesome… On with the story!
Amu Hinamori was sound asleep one morning. Peaceful as ever.
Until an obnoxious little alarm clock named Ran started chanting her awake.
"Amu-chan, Amu-chan! Get up get up get UP!!" Ran yelled with a perky smile on her face.
Too bad she doesn't have a snooze button.
"Aww, c'mon Ran, it's a Saturday! Let me sleep in…" Amu said, rolling over, ready to go back to sleep again.
"No way, Amu-chan! We're going for an early morning jog!" Ran cheered.
"Nuh-uh! Nada! Nope! Not happening! It's too early! 7:30 is sleepy time on the weekends!" Amu exclaimed. Like she was gonna jog this early…
"Chara Change!"
Oh no.
Guess she is.
Amu bolted up right out of her bed. "Ready to go!" She exclaimed perkily.
She ran around the room, changing quickly and then bolting down the stairs. She wore a cute pink tank top with red hearts all over, matching perfectly with her pink hair and red heart clip, and black shorts to match with her black Airwalks (with pink hearts on the sides)*. She ran right through the door and outside to start a run around the block, Ran floating right beside her.
"RAN!" Amu screamed. "Why? How could you!?"
"Simple," Ran stated. "I said the words 'Chara Change'!".
"Ran!"
Meanwhile…
Up in Amu's room, Miki and Suu slowly popped up from their eggs.
"What… was that all about?" Miki asked, still waking up.
"Hm… seems like Ran wanted to run with Amu-chan again~desu." Suu replied.
"Oh. Well then, as long as they're gone, I can keep sleeping…" said Miki, closing up her egg shell. She rolled her egg over to be next to Dia, who was too oblivious to wake up to the commotion.
"*sigh*, I guess I will clean up Amu-chan's mess from earlier~desu…" Suu said happily, going off to pick up the messy, crumpled up clothes strewn about the floor.
About an hour later, Amu returned home panting heavily. She walked right up the steps and into her room. She flopped down onto her bed, Ran exiting the Chara Change.
"Ugh… I'm exhausted Ran… why would you do this to me?" Amu sighed out in a whine.
"Because you needed the exercise!" Ran yelled.
"Are you calling me fat!?" Amu shot up, ticked.
"No, no, Amu-chan!" Ran exclaimed, backing up with her eyes bugged out and her hands waving in front of her face. "I didn't mean it like that!"
While Amu was listening to this, she looked around her room, expecting to see a mess. Despite this morning, it was surprisingly clean. "Hey Suu," Amu called out. "Did you clean my room while we were gone?"
Suu popped out from under the bed, right behind Amu's feet. "Hai, desu! I wanted to surprise you when you got back~desu!"
Amu screamed-Suu had scared her to death! She had no idea that she was under the bed. "Suu! Don't scare me like that!"
"Well, am I allowed to?" she heard a voice say.
A familiar, husky male voice. Right next to her left ear. She felt the warm air caress her ear as he talked.
She screamed again, and spun around angrily to face the voice. "Ikuto!"
He smirked. "Yes?" he replied, trying to sound innocent.
"What are you doing in my room!?" Amu yelled.
"Aww, can't a guy visit his favorite little strawberry?" Ikuto asked, still smirking.
God, I hate that smirk so much, Amu thought. "No! Especially not a big, cat-eared pervert like you! And for the record, I am not your little strawberry. I am my own!"
Now, this kind of commotion was enough to wake Dia and Miki. They popped up out of their eggs as the two kept bickering.
"Oi, what is it now?" Miki asked Dia groggily, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.
"Well, considering that it even woke me up…" Dia replied, "Ikuto-kun must be visiting again."
"Oh. I guess so. Hey, wait, if Ikuto's here… then where's Yoru?"
"Right here~nya!"
Yoru popped out of nowhere and took the top of Miki's egg, closing her inside.
"Aah!" Miki yelled from inside her egg. "Yoru!"
Amu and Ikuto stopped bickering for a second and watched the scene. They started to laugh together-their chara's were always so funny to watch when they were together. Amu then caught herself-losing her character in front of Ikuto? And laughing with him? Oh no. That is definitely not okay.
Ikuto looked over at her-why the sudden stop of laughter? He chuckled once he saw her blank face, staring off into nothingness. He snuck up behind her and put his lips right up next to her ear.
"Thinking about me again, Amu?" he said, stretching out her name.
She snapped back to reality, her face turning a tomato red. "No way! Why would I be thinking about you? And don't call me so familiarly!" she ranted.
All the charas stopped what they were doing to watch the two again.
"Aww, my little Amu is denying me again. So sad. Even though she dressed up all cute for me…" he said, feigning sadness, but ending with a smirk.
"Huh? What are you talk,ing**… about…" her voice trailed off as she slowly looked down at herself, realizing that she was still wearing her tiny, heart covered outfit. "Ahh!! Ikuto! Leave! I have to change!"
"Need any help with that?" Smirk.
"No way! Pervert!" Blush.
"Amu-chan…" Dia floated up to them. "You really need to learn to be nicer to Ikuto-kun."
This caused Ikuto to smirk again. For what, the fifth time already? "Thank you!" he said to the little yellow chara. "See? She gets me. And she has manners, unlike someone I know…" He said, turning to Amu.
"Ugh! See Dia, this is exactly why I'm not nice to him!"
Dia only smiled. "Chara Change!"
"Eh?" was all Amu could say.
A diamond clip appeared in her hair. She was surrounded by a yellow, sparkly aura. Everyone one in the room, who were confused at first, instantly became calm and pleasant.
"I'm sorry, Ikuto. Forgive me for being rude to you." Amu said sweetly. Who knew Dia was so polite?
Ikuto could only stare at first. Then he decided to respond. "Well, as long as we're acting like adults her…: he bent his right arm, folded it across his stomach, and bowed formally. "Then I apologize for intruding so early in the morning. I shall take my leave now." he straightened up and started to walk towards the balcony door. "Let's go Yoru." "Coming~nya!" Yoru floated over.
At this, Amu snapped out of the Chara Change. Ikuto's… being polite?
"Besides, I know how much you prefer it when I come at night, when you're all tired out for me." She swore she could hear that smirk.
"Ikuto, you pervert! Jeez, and I thought you were actually being polite for once."
"Guess that's too bad for you then, huh?" Cat ears popped up on his head and a tail waved behind him. He opened up the balcony door and stepped out.
"Wait!" Amu exclaimed, stopping him and causing him to look back. "You're really leaving?"
His eyes widened slightly. Did he sense disappointment in her voice?
"Well, yeah, that's what you wanted right? Besides, if you're going to change, I don't want to invade your privacy if you really don't want me to be here. So… bye for now."
Amu had a small pink blush stained on her face. He's being so… considerate today. It was so much more mature than his usual, perverted self. Was it because Dia made her look more mature?
"Oh, okay then… thank you…" the pinkette replied.
"Yup." was all Ikuto replied before jumping off the balcony into the streets.
Amu sighed. She could never understand him.
She started to get changed for the day. With the help of Miki and the encouragement of the other three charas, she decided on a soft pink halter top with slight frills around the edges, and a pair of soft yellow shorts. On her feet she wore white Airwalks with pink designs, bases and laces. She tied up her hair in a side ponytail with a light yellow scrunchie.
"Amu-chan, you look adorable~desu!" Suu said. "What's the occasion?"
"Hm…" Amu said. "I'm not really sure. Oh well, I think I'm gonna go wander the streets today, maybe even go to the mall!"
"Sounds fun!" Ran exclaimed, "I can't wait!"
"Actually…" Amu started, "I was thinking about just taking Miki and Dia with me this time… gomen!"
"What?" All of the chara's asked, Miki and Dia perking up, Suu's eyes growing wide and dropping her duster***. Ran slouched in disappointment. "Why, Amu-chan? Do you not need me and Suu anymore?" she asked sadly, eyes watering.
Amu's heart just about broke right then and there. She'd never seen Ran so sad before! "No, of course not Ran! That's not it at all! I just…" she couldn't tell her why, that would just make her even more upset! "I was hoping that next time it would just be you two and me! And today it's just their turn!" She said, hoping she'd buy it.
Ran was still a little disappointed, but she accepted the answer as legitimate. "Okay, Amu-chan. Then I guess me and Suu can play today!"
"Hai! You and I can do whatever we want~desu!" Suu commented with better grammar than Ran. [A/N: lol! Had to point that out XD]
"Yup! Just don't get into too much trouble, okay guys?" Amu said.
"Hai!"~desu!" Ran and Suu said together.
"Great!" Amu said, "Then we're off! Let's go, Miki, Dia."
"'Kay," Miki said, floating over to Amu.
Dia went up to the other two charas. "I hope you two don't have any feelings against Amu-chan for this!" she said sweetly.
"No way! We're totally fine!" Ran stated happily. Suu only smiled and nodded.
"Alright, then we'll be leaving. Goodbye!" With that, Dia floated over to Amu and Miki.
The three exited the room and went down the stairs, meeting her mom in the kitchen. "Why, good morning, Honey! Would you like some breakfast?" she asked with a smile.
"No thanks, Mom. I'm going out today." Amu answered in her 'cool n' spicy' tone.
Midori looked over her daughter's outfit. "Oh. No wonder you're dressed so cute today. Well then, have fun!"
Amu blushed slightly when the comment was made on the cuteness of her outfit. "'Kay. Bye Mom!" Amu left the front door, Miki and Dia floating closely behind.
"So, Amu-chan…" Miki started as they were walking down the street, "What's the real reason that you only wanted Dia and I to come along with you?"
"Eh? What are you talking about?" Amu asked nervously. Was it that obvious she'd been lying?
Dia had a slightly sad, yet understanding smile on her face. "You can't hide it from us, Amu-chan, we know you too well to see that you were lying back there. What's going on?"
Amu sighed--she knew it was impossible to hide it from them. Guess I might as well tell them now…
LizzyBird: Aaand… cut!
Ikuto: Uhh… what was that?
LizzyBird: Me ending the chapter, duh.
Ikuto: I meant the chapter.
Amu: Eh? I lied to Ran and Suu?! Oh noes!
LizzyBird: Oh relax, it's not that bad…
Ikuto: Why was I nice?
Amu: I thought it was a nice change!
Ikuto: Eh… I think being perverted is definitely more funner.
LizzyBird: More…
Amu: Funner?
LizzyBird: Oh noes. He's taking after me and my mother. Ahh!!!
Amu: Uh oh…
LizzyBird: And you! You said 'oh noes' too! I'm too much of an influence…
Amu: Arghh! Just end this already!
Ikuto: *picks up Amu and steals her away somewhere… possibly to rape her o.O*
Amu: Ikuto!!
LizzyBird: Uhh… Yoru! You know what to do! Do it! DO THE DEW!!
Yoru: Please review~nya! Am I just a pawn to you…?
LizzyBird: Yup, pretty much!
Miki: Not to me… *blushes under hat*
Yoru: Miki~nya!! *canoodles her*
LizzyBird: Uh… what he said up there.
STORY EXPLANATIONS!
*-I will have pictures up! This goes for every outfit.
**-YES I realize that there is a comma in the middle of the word. It is supposed to be there. It was there when I wrote it on paper, it's there when I'm typing it. It just means she slightly paused in the middle of the word… you get it.
***-I know the duster thingy is random, but just to make it clear… You know how Suu always dusts everything she cleans? With that cute little duster of hers? Yeah. Forgot to mention she had it earlier. But she has it. =D
