Starry Sky - A Shugo Chara fanfic

--

Disclaimer: I do not own Shugo Chara.
If I did, I'd be up to date on the manga and anime, sadly I'm still at the beginning.

Amu looked back and forth, from Tadase & Nadeshiko to Kukai & Yaya. Once again, she was left with nothing to do as the rest work on some unfamiliar documents. Their excuse was always because 'The Joker is special' but sometimes, Amu just can't help but feel bored during on of their Guardian meetings.

AMu sighed and dropped her chin to the table. "Hey, hey." Everyone looked at her. "Are you guys finished yet? I want to do something together. It's no fun going to these meetings if I'm left to do nothing." She grumbled while everyone smiled at her.

"Come on, Hinamori. At least you don't have to bother with these boring documents." Kukai grinned at her.

"Yup, yup. You should enjoy your 'un-boring' position, Amu-chi." Yaya said enthusiastically.

"Well, I only need to cleanse X-eggs. When I'm not doing that, I feel like I'm not supposed to be here, actually." She mumbled.

Nadeshiko smile at the pink-haired girl. She then whispered something in Tadase's ear. The blonde boy smile at her and turned to Amu.

"Well, then how about we give you a job, Hinamori?"

Amu looked at him with glistening eyes. "Really, really? What is it?"

Nadeshiko spoke for Tadase, "You're our event planner and organiser."

Amu turned to look at her. "Eh?"

"The Guardians can't have all work and no play, right? So, we'll leave you in-charge of our get-togethers. Sound okay?" Nadeshiko explained to her friend.

"Um. I guess so. When can I start?"

"Ne, ne. How about this weekend? Anybody busy?" Yaya asked.

She was greeted with shakes of the head.

Amu smile to herself. "Great! Now, to think of something. Hmm, Ran! Miki! Su! Come help me with this."

The three guardian characters left the other guardian characters, relieved that they would be saved from another 'world domination meeting'. Really, Kiseki has such a wild imagination.

"Yes, Amu-chan?" They all said at the same time.

Tadase, Nadeshiko, Kukai & Yaya returned to their work, reluctantly, as Amu started talking animatedly with her guardian characters.

"Bowling!" Ran, pink guardian character, exlaimed.

Su, the green guardian character, started clapping. "How about a barbeque?"

"A trip to the museum?" Miki, the blue one, suggested.

By the time Amu finished writing all their ideas on a piece of paper, the other Guardians had finished their work. They all stood up and looked over the golden-eyed girl's shoulders to look at the list. The four sweat-dropped as they saw about at least 30 ideas on the paper. They all started crossing out those that were too boring, extravagant, weird or impossible.

Amu held up the list just above her head, showing them to the people behind her. They were left with five difficult choices.

"What do you guys think we should do?" Amu looked at her companions. "I can't make up my mind."

Yaya jumped up suddenly. "I know, I know, Amu-chi."

She took a clean piece of paper and tore it into five equal pieces. She wrote down a suggestion on each piece and folded it up. She then gave the pieces of paper to Amu as she took of her cape and let it rest on her palms. She gestured to the pink-haired girl to put pieces of paper on her cape-covered palm.

Amu looked at Yaya then to the paper on her hands. She shrugged and did as told, putting the pieces of paper on Yaya's hands. She watched as the pig-tailed girl wrapped the paper with her cape and forming a hole with her fingers.

"Pick out a piece of paper, Amu-chi. Whichever one you take out will be our weekend activity." Yaya instructed.

Amu reluctantly dipped her hand inside the cape and fished out one piece of paper. She opened it and scanned it with her eyes.

"So what is it, Hinamori?" Kukai asked.

Amu showed them the fished-out paper and grinned. "We're going to have a sleepover here at the Royal Garden."

"Yay! Just what I wanted!" exclaimed the overly-excited Yaya.

"Well then now that that's all decided, I think I ought to be going." Tadase said.

"Eh? But it's still early." Amu said.

"I'm sorry but I have some personal matter to attend to." Tadase apologised.

"That reminds me, I have extra ballet class today." Yaya mumbled. "Sorry but I think I have to go early too."

"Same for me. My mother requests for me to attend a family meeting. I'm sorry too." Nadeshiko reasoned.

Amu watched as her three friends got up and walked out of the Royal Garden with their respective guardian characters following closely behind. She then looked at the only person left with her and his guardian character.

"You're not gonna leave me alone too, are you?"

Kuukai gave her one of his famous grins. "Nope. I'm going to walk you home. Come on!"

Amu smiled at her best guy friend's child-like behaviour.

'Honestly, if I'm not careful, I just migh fall in love with this guy.'

-- Well, there's nothing wrong with that, is there Amu. --

Kuukai looked at the golden-eyed girl walking beside him. She hadn't said a word since they left the school grounds and she looked like she was deep in thought. He looked at four guardian characters floating in front of them, playing some kind of poking game. He nudged the pink-haired girl, causing her to return to the real world.

"Oi, Hinamori. What are you thinking about?" He casually asked.

Amu sighed before she replied. "Oh, nothing."

Kuukai looked slightly irritated at her response. "Come on. Why won't you tell me? You, of all people, know I'm trustworthy."

She smiled and giggled up at the green-eyed boy. "Fine. But promise me you'll keep it a secret."

"You don't even have to ask me to. So, what's up?"

"Well, I've been thinking about it and I'm still not sure about what I feel for Tadase. Or Ikuto, for that matter."

"Wait. You like Ikuto?"

"Well, I'm not sure. I'm really confused Kuukai. Sometimes I think I don't like either of them. UGH! I don't know."

"Huh. I guess it's difficult to tell apart a mere crush from an actual love interest. That's how life is. It may be difficult, figuring out which guy you like more, but if you're happy with your decision, it's worth it right?"

"Hmm, I guess so. I'm still unsure though but thanks alot Kuukai. You're the best." She gave him a sweet smile.

The two arrived at Amu's house, just as their talk was finished. They bid their goodbyes and Amu was left to figure out her emotions. Unknown to her, Kuukai was doing the same thing.

--Oh, Amu. Didn't you notice the sadness in his eyes when you mentioned Tadase & Ikuto?--

Ran, Miki and Suu looked worriedly at Amu. She had changed into a pair of pajamas and under her blanket, hugging a pillow.

"Amu-chan? Are you okay?" Ran asked and floated by her side. Miki and Suu did the same and now they were in front of the Joker's sad face.

"Yes, I'm fine. Please don't worry too much about me. I'm just thinking about... stuff."

"You can always confide in us you know." Miki stated.

"Is it about Tadase and Ikuto, desu?" Suu asked.

"Well, them. And someone else too, actually." Amu said, as she sat up, ready to talk to her guardian characters.

AN: I planned it to be a one-shot. But, you know me, I don't follow my own rules. Like how I wanted to study for exams but, as you can see, I'm writing fics. ARGH! MY EXAMS ARE COMING! To be honest, I really want to study right now but I can't. I'm lazy, I know. It's just that my exams fall right before my birthday so, I figure if I do well then I'd get a rocking gift. So, I may not update this for a while. I'm not even sure how many chapters this will take. Hopefully, I can squeeze all my ideas in the 2nd chapter. Highly unlikely, though. So just stay tuned, okay? And leave a review if you please.

Oh, yeah. The word in italics and in the middle of scenes are kind of like short comments of mine. It's not their thoughts, it's mine. Hahah. :D

And although I like Amuto & Tadamu both, I like Kukamu the best. I love Kuukai very very much. His brothers too! x3
