Hey! This is my first ever Shugo Chara Fanfic, so I hope you enjoy it.

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing

PS: Amu is going to be pretty OCC so be prepared for that.

She was packing, throwing her black and pink clothing into a big bag when I walked in.

"Amu?" She ignored me. "Amu, what's going on?"

"I'm… I'm… I've gotta go, Tadase," she said finally, refusing to look at me.

"What?" I say breathlessly.

"I'm leaving."

"Why?" My eyes are beginning to water.

"I've just need to."

"It's him, isn't it?" I ask quietly.

Amu doesn't respond.

"Isn't it?" I ask more firmly.

"I can't help it," she says, looking back to her packing. "I think I love him."

"I KNOW I love you!" I cried.

"That's not enough, Tadase," she yells back.

"But-" I'm crying now.

"Tadase," she cuts me off. "You are not enough."

"I'll try harder, I can be whatever it is you want, please!"

"NO TADASE!" Amu yells, slamming her cased closed. "We are through, I'm sorry."

With that she walked out of our apartment. Out of my life. No, she was my life. I have nothing left.

I look around the bed room, it's so empty without her stuff in it. I stand up and walk out. I walk out of our room. I walk out of our apartment building. I'm leaving and never coming back.

I'm running now. I don't know where I'm going and I don't care. I stop suddenly on a bridge, I can see it from here. That little field near the water, where we would talk. Where we would talk. I run down to it and stand in the grass. It's so pointless without her. This whole city is pointless without her.

"WHY?" I finally yell. "WHY AM I NOT ENOUGH?"

I collapse on the ground and cry. Everything was pointless. I had nothing left, no one to love, nothing to hold dear, no hopes, no dreams. Suddenly something on the ground caught my eye. A flower… A little yellow flower…

To be strong. To be kind. To protect everyone around me.

I touch the flower's soft petals.

My dream…

I wipe my face off. I'm done crying and I'm done running.

I will be a strong, kind man. I will protect everyone I love. I will move forward, even when it hurts. And I will fulfill my dreams.

I stand up and take the first step of my new life.

Wow, that's pretty bad…. And way short… Eh, review anyways. I'm thinking about a different, more Ikuto centered, give any suggestions you may have please.

Bravo Yankee Echo, Nori.
