Amu's POV:
"Hey, Dia, Miki, Su... how are you?" I greeted my chara's
"Aren't you forgetting someone?"
"Oh, Ran, sorry, it must've slipped my mind!" I laughed nervously "So, how've y-you guys been d-doing?" I ask them once again
"We've been doing well if you're doing well! Aren't you gonna be late for school, though?" Dia looked puzzled
"Yeah, I could've sworn today was a school day" Miki sighed
"Quit it!" I shouted at them
They giggled as they tackled each other. Su tackled Dia, Miki tackled Su, and Ran tackled Miki.
Ran giggled "You guys are so childish!"
"Like you have room to talk!" Miki shouted angerily in a laugh
I laughed at how childish my chara's were acting "But you're right! I have to get to school!"
I jerk up out of bed "Gosh! I have to get to school!"
"Amu?" A man got my attention, I blinked "Who're you?"
"Don't be silly, Amu, your mom cooked your breakfast. Here it is" He layed a piece of wood on my lap with oatmeal with blueberries and orange juice
"What's your name again?" I ask him trying to understand what's happening here. He painfully lets out a chuckle "I'm your dad... remember? Your mom already put together an outfit for you"
"Uh... what?" I stare at him in disbelief
He stands up from my closet "Your mom is in the basement waiting for you"
"Why?" I ask him plainly
My dad had no words... it was all too confusing but then he explained "Your maid has your school schedule to take with you"
"Take with me...?" I get out of bed
"Ikuto, your boyfriend, is waiting for you by the front door to walk you to school" My dad explained
"O-Okay?" I look at the outfit "wow"
"I know, right!? Your maid's a gifted artist... but, of course, you knew that already!" He slightly bowed, so did I "I'll be waiting downstairs. Just... don't be late for your first day"
Ikuto? The person I had in my dream? The pervert? WAIT, MY BOYFRIEND!?
x-x-x-x
Time skip: After I get changed and head downstairs
"Bye, dad!" I wave to him
A guy takes me by my hand and gently pulls "Come on, or you'll be late for school"
I guess it can't hurt to try and see if this is Ikuto, he's nothing like he was in my dream... NO! IT WAS REAL! I KNOW! This guy just doesn't look like... this kind of guy "I-is your name Ikuto
"Yeah... why?" We started walking down the driveway
"Is this my first day of school?" I ask him with a puzzled expression
He returns the puzzled expression back at me and chuckles "Of course it is. Don't you remember? Your parents wouldn't let you leave the house before today"
"Oh? Okay, then tell me this... how did we meet and how did you become my boyfriend?" I ask him hoping he doesn't think I forgot... oh my gosh! I just realized something! If this is the real world then where is... Tadase, Yaya, Nadeshiko, Nagihiko, Rima, Kairi, and Kukai? Especially Kukai! (A/N: Amu doesn't know that Nadeshiko and Nagihiko are the same person in the series so I figured just making them twins)
Why is Ikuto the only one who showed up... and why doesn't he have his usual evil smirk? I miss that smirk when he teased me all the time, the smirk he had when he'd scare the daylights out of me, and the smirk he had when he found out embarrassing things about me... I miss him
"Well, ya see, I came here one day wondering who lived here. Then you answered the door and looked depressed so I came here everyday to help you feel better, it didn't work that well but you laughed at my failures so I decided to come here more often. Then I eventually just jumped on an oppertunity to ask you out... and you said yes" He explained
Heck... what? That don't sound like me, am I in a different universe? And where is Ran, Miki, Su, and Dia? This is all too confusing!
"Of course" I nodded
"A-Are you happy?" He asks me bluntly
I nod "Yeah, why?"
"Because you seem down, you should still be that childish and immature girl I fell in love with. You wouldn't let anything get you down! But now... you're different, what changed?" He asked me as we continued walking down the road
"Um, what about Kukai?" I ask him to see if he remembers the name
"Kukai? Oh, you mean that happy-go-lucky kid that lives across from the school?" He asks me
He nods "Yeah, he always thinks that life is a big game! He's always playing around with his head in the clouds! He isn't bad but he takes reality too lightly"
'Are you sure that you don't just take reality too seriously?' I thought in a giggle, he looked confused "Why're you laughing?"
"Nothing, you just remind me of a certain someone" I laugh
"Oh? And who is this 'certain someone'?" he raised his eyebrow
"It's a secret" I mutter
Someone runs up to me and hugs me from behind "AMU! You finally made it to school! How do you like it so far?" A blonde girl stares at me with hopeful eyes
"Uh... I'm sorry... I was told I got amnesia. Who're you again?" I asked her
Her face fell "What?"
"Utau, please don't push her. She's been under a lot of stress. For a second, she thought that Kukai Souma was her friend" Ikuto explained
I nodded but then a tear slipped down my cheek "I-I need to see him, where is he?"
The girl called 'Utau' nodded and whistled. A boy with neatly combed ginger hair walked over, he was wearing all orange and blue with emerald green eyes. That's him! He looks at us all confused "Utau, what do you want?"
"K-Kukai?" I mumble "W-What happened?" I whisper to nobody in particular
"Huh?" He looks my way and sees me hiding behind Kukai
"What!?" I scream and everybody looks at me
His facial expression changed from confused to embarrassed "What're you doing?"
Everybody continues to their own thing "I-I know everything about you!" I yell
He looked at me with a challenging smirk "Is this a game?"
"No... it's a challenge" I smirk back and walk out from behind Ikuto
"You're on! What's my birthday?" He asks me with that same challenging smirk
I flash him a grin "Augest 17!"
He looke shocked "Blood type?"
"A!"
"Height?"
"165cm!"
"Weight?"
"5Xkg!"
"Okay, tell me about... me!" He demands
"You're happy-go-lucky, sporty, outgoing, kind, and the captain of the soccer club! You eat a lot but, somehow, never gain weight. You love all sports and your best friends name is Daichi who is also into sports and is your cousin! You have 4 brothers; Unkai, Rento, Kaidou, and Shuusui!" A tear slips down my cheek
"U-Uh! D-Don't cry! You got it right! 100% right!" He tries to comfort me but it doesn't work
Tears kept flowing "Kukai!" I run up to him and hug him tightly
He pats me on the head "Look, I don't know who you are but you seem pretty nice and you obviously know who I am. If you need anything in the future then come get me, I'll be glad to help. But for now... I gotta get to class. C'ya, Hinamori"
I'm shocked! "Wait! You know my name! If you don't know who I am then how do you know my name?" I let go of him and backed up to Ikuto
"The truth is... Kukai here is a total loser at this school, he has nothing better to do than to look up to us. So he knows everybody around here. That's why I was shocked when you brought him up" Ikuto explains
Kukai nods "But everybody who watches me play at the fields know who I am because, well, I'm the captain of the soccer team... like you said"
"The happy-go-lucky psycho doesn't... doesn't remember me?" I look down at the ground "I understand... I only know about you because of a stupid dream anyway... unless Easter had something to do with this" I mutter
"E-Easter?" Kukai choked out. I nodded. "How do you know about Easter!?" He whisper yells
"I-I told you! It was just a dream" I whisper yell back
"Come with me!" He grabs me hand and runs really fast down to the soccer fields... I think I'm gonna puke when I get home. By the time we get down there, I'm already panting heavily (A/N: It's not that far away)
We finally make it, he seats on a bench and I sit next to him "What do you want?"
"Tell me where you heard of Easter" He demanded in a whisper
"Um, I used to work for them" I answered unsure of his reaction
His jaw drops "So... you're evil?"
"No, past tense... used to work for them. I know everything about them but I quit when I figured out they were just using me to get something called the embryo. By the way, where is Daichi?"
"Um, just... uh, he's playing with another Guardian character. Where is Dia?" He asks me
Why would he just ask about Dia? Does he even know about Ran, Miki, and Su? "She's playing with Daichi" I stare at him with half lidded eyes. He sweatdrops "Is that so?"
I nod "Anyway, are you Easter's enemy or somethin'?"
I hope he didn't notice my accent right there! "Yeah!" He whisper yells
"Oh, ain't that right? I just haven't noticed, you seem like such a nice guy. Too bad we're enemies. I have to go, I'm not allowed to speak with the enemy" I get up and adjust my bag over my shoulder "Bye"
"Wait! You said you used to work at Easter, past tense. So why are we enemies?" He asked me as he grabbed my wrist
I pulled myself from his grip and sighed "We're not that tpye of enemy, we're both outgoing and sport psycho's, I can speak with the sport enemy. I can be quite competitive so I don't make friends with other outgoing people"
"Oh, I see, a game of 1 on 1?" He puts on his usual challenging smirk
I smirk back "Of what game?"
"You pick" He grins
I laugh "Basketball"
"To the gym!" He points to th school dramatically making the 'DUN DUN DUNNNN' sound, I laugh "You're funny"
"Change your mind about being my friend?" He asks and looks at me with hopeful eyes
"Nope" I answer popping the 'p'
He sighs "Aww!"
"To the gym" I do what he did before and point to the school dramatically. He laughs "Let's go!" he grabs me wrist and runs into the school, we pass Ikuto and gives me the 'what the heck?' look, I smile at him and wave as Kukai drags me to the gym
"I already gathered a whole bunch of people who want to watch our little basketball match" He grins at me, I stare at him "Uh, no"
"What do you mean?" He asked "Don't tell me you're shy"
"Y-Yes?" I hide behind Kukai as people stare at me
He sighs "But you're the childish and immature Amu Hinamori! People look up to you because you're outgoing and not afraid to speak your mind but... I guess everybody has secrets"
"Y-Yes" I nod
Kukai grabs the basket ball "Well, it's too late, I guess we're gonna have to deal with it for now"
He rests the ball on on his hip under his arm in a grin "Come on"
I stare at the ball as the teacher/referree person dude man blows the whistle. I squeak and grab the ball from Kukai, he grins at me and tries to block me. I bounce the ball between his legs and rushed aside of him, he tries to grab it but I brush passed him grabbing the ball bouncing it, I jump up and throw it in the basket. I catch the ball when it comes down and everybody stares at me in amazement.
Kukai grins "So... basketball is your weakness?"
"NO!" I blush profusely "I don't have a weakness!"
Everybody just continues to stare at me with their mouths hung up. I smirk at them and yell "You're gonna catch flies like that!"
Everybody blushes and closes their mouths immediately. Kukai laughs "Let's go!"
I throw him the ball and he immediately brushes passed me, I grab the ball from him just in time bouncing it between his legs again and tossing it into the basket like it's a daily rutine for me and I'm used to it
"Wow!" Kukai's mouth hung open
"You're gonna catch flies too, ya know" I playfully wink at him, he blushes and crosses his arms "Gimme the ball"
"You needn't be so bossy" I huff
He tilts his head to the side "Needn't?"
I cover my mouth "I said shouldn't"
"Whatever, gimme the ball" He tries to grab at it
"Fetch!" I throw it passed him and just so happens to land in the basket "Um, COACH! DOES THAT COUNT!?"
"YES! FIRST ONE TO 10 WINS! 3-0! GO!" He blows his whistle again
I squeak again and he runs passed me with the ball. I kick the through his legs and grab it still bouncing it, I jump up and toss it in the basket
"FOUR TO ZERO! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!" He blows his whistle again, I squeak and grab the ball and tosses it to Kukai, he grins "So... the whistle is your weakness?"
"I TOLD YOU I DON'T HAVE NO WEAKNESS!" I blush, he smirks "Sureeee"
"Whatever! Just shoot already! I'm here waiting!" I get in my position
He sighs "Fine!"
He tries to run passed me again but I get in his way and he keeps bouncing the ball not being able to through it in the basket. I grab the ball before he can bounce it again and run passed him jumping up and throwing it in the basket "TOO SLOW!"
He groans "MAN!"
"FIVE TO ZERO!" The coach yells and whistles again. I squeak but, this time, the whole room can hear me, I blush "P-Play ball" I throw him the ball
x-x-x-x
Time skip: an hour later, neither of us got another point until a half hour into the game. Let's just say I beat him 10 to 0!
We're both sweating, everybody walks out of the gym except me, Kukai, and the coach. The coach walks over to us and hands us both a towel "Say, Hinamori, how would you like to join the Basketball club? You can be the team captain"
I didn't know what to say "What?"
"C'mon, Hinamori, why don't you do it!? It could be fun!" Kukai encourages me
"Okay, sounds fun" I agree, the coach has a huge smirk plastered on his face "Great, all the sports teams are getting together this afternoon out in the yard when everybody leaves school. It's a club meeting. Be there"
"I'll walk you there, the yard is like a half a mile away" Kukai grins at me
"S-Sure" I take the towel from the coach. Ikuto comes in "Amu, it's time for me to walk you home"
Kukai butts in before I can explain "That's alright, I'll walk her home. The sports clubs have a meeting that we need to go to, it's like an afternoon program"
Ikuto looks at me puzzled "You joined a sports club?"
"I'm the captain of the basketball team already" I grin
"But I don't feel comfortable having that loser walk you home" Ikuto grabs me hand "Now, let's go home. What would your parents say about you joining a sports club?"
"To heck with them! I like basketball, who cares what anybody else has to say!? AND DONT CALL KUKAI A LOSER! He's a really nice guy, a fellow sports psycho!" I laugh
Kukai also laughs but his dies down shortly "The meeting is in a few minutes, Amu"
"Okay, I'll be right there" I wave him off "Ikuto, this is my dream. Please just walk home without me? You still have Utau"
"Alright but you're still my girlfriend, it's only natural for me to care about you" Ikuto squeezes my hand tightly then lets go
"No I'm not" I mutter
"What?" He looks at me with fear in his eyes
I sigh "I-I'm not your girlfriend, you have me mixed up with someone else. I asked you if your name was Ikuto this morning, right? That's because I just found out about you, and how could a pervert like you turn into such a nice guy who turns out to be a total jerk? I asked you if this was my first day of school because I honestly didn't know! I didn't know who Utau was! I only know a few people! Kukai Souma, Tadase Hotori, Yaya Yuiki, Kairi Sanjou, Nadeshiko Fujisako, Nagihiko Fujisaki, and Rima Mashiro! Please don't touch me, I don't know you!"
He looked shocked "You perfer those losers over me?"
"Those losers have a better heart than you'll ever have!" I shout at him
"Are you saying that I'm not good enough for you!?" He started getting angry "Youre breaking up with me because I'm not good enough for you!?"
"NO! I'M NOT BREAKING UP WITH YOU! I WAS NEVER YOUR GIRLFRIEND TO BEGIN WITH!" I also start getting angry
"Fine! Be that way! See if I care! Come to me when you got your priorities straight!" He walked off
The coach came up behind me and put a hand on my shoulder "Where's Ran, Miki, Su, and Dia?"
"Wait! How do you know about them!?" I look up and my eyes start watering "Nikaidou!"
"Nikaidou-sensei to you" He jokes
I laughed "You saw that, right?"
"Saw what?" He winked, I laughed again "Thanks"
He zips his lips and so do I, "Bye!" I run off but hear a faint "C'ya!"
Kukai was standing outside the door with his jaw dropped... I hold his hand and started dragging him "Which way to the meeting?"
He pointed with his other hand in a direction and ran at full speed, I was really dizzy once we started moving, he got us there in half the time it would've taken me to get us there. He's really fast! "Here we are"
Everybody smiled at us "Tadase Hotori, Yaya Yuiki, Kairi Sanjou, Nadeshiko Fujisaki, Nagihiko Fujisaki, and Rima Mashiro" I counted them
"Basket ball" Tadase smiled
"Volley ball!" Yaya squealed
"I'm the manager of all these, here, clubs" Kairi adjusted his glasses
"I dance but they said that I could come here, they're starting a dancing club!" Nadeshiko laughed
"Basketball" Nagihiko repeated Tadase, afterall, they're in the same club
"I joined the Volleyball club because I don't have to run around much" Rima commented
Kairi looked at her, confused "Then why did you even join a club?"
"Because SOMEBODY said it would be a good idea to get some exercise!" She eyed Nagihiko who just laughed nervously scooting away from her a bit
"And I joined the soccer club, obviously" Kukai slung his arm over my shoulder
"Oooooooooh, so your new girlfriend is the captain of the basketball club!" Yaya laughed "It's so exciting! Nice to meet you, I'm Yaya-"You're Yaya Yuiki" I cut her off before she could finish
"SHE'S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND!" Kukai's face turned red
I saw Ikuto staring at me and Kukai, with his arm around my neck and all of us laughing. He looked angry, he was clenching his fist. I looked at him and stared at him zoning out, I was awoken by a violent shake on my shoulder "Amu! The meeting's starting!"
"Are you staring at your ex boyfriend?" Kukai asked me
Everybody stared at me "Ex?"
"Yeah, he's my ex, and he seems angry that I'm hanging out with Kukai now" I sigh
Kukai's face got red "W-What?"
Everybody else snickered except Rima and Kairi who just rolled their eyes at their friends' childishness, Rima eyed me "If you love him then why not toy with him?"
My face got red "But I love somebody else" I mutter
Everybody looked confused, Rima continued to talk though "Why not make that boy jealous then?"
"But... how!?" I stared at my feet avoiding everybody's gazes
Rima sighed "Look, you're a goregous girl, no wonder your boyfriend was jealous! Why not use a guy to make that one jealous!? It works everytime! That's how I got Nagi"
"True" Nagi commented
"Not. HELPING!" I stare at him right in the eyes, he just found out my secret "CRAP! CRAP!"
"What!? What!?" Yaya mimiced my shout
"I just told Nagi who I liked" I muttered "DON'T TELL ANYBODY!"
"Don't worry" He winked at me "Your secret's safe with me"
Everybody crowded around him (except Tadase and Kairi who just chuckled) "WHO IS IT!? WHO IS IT!?"
