So another story from me. I really need to branch out and write stuffs that are not for Shugo Chara, but I can't help it. Shugo Chara is one of my current obsessions. By the way, you people need to stop writing such nice reviews. I feel too happy, then I feel like I'm being smug…or something like that. I love you. Remember that. I will love you forever. I should probably write the story now. Yeah I think I'll do that.

p.s: I'm ignoring the whole 'they're in Japan' thing, kind of. Just ignore my non-japanese things. Also, They are now in highschool, Amu, Tadase, and Nadeshiko are in 9th grade, Kukai is in 10th, and Yaya in 8th grade. Also, Ikuto is a 12th grader, which messes with his age a little but he needs to be here.

Disclaimer: I do not own Shugo Chara!


"I don't dance." Amu said, for the millionth time to Ami. Ami blinked her eyes pleadingly. Amu shook her head and walked away.

"Amu-chan that was mean, she's your little sister." Ran said in a scolding tone. "Besides, it's good exercise!" she added.

"I don't care, it's embarrassing. What if someone saw? I can't dance, so I don't dance." Amu replied, looking away.

"That's Amu-chan's 'Cool and Spicy' character again." Miki whispered to Suu, who giggled.

Amu shook her head, and dove onto her bed. I mean, I used to dance, I still do, but never when someone is around. Besides, I don't exactly like the same music, or dancing, as other people do. I have to keep that a secret though; I just pretend to love 'normal' music. It's not bad but…… Amu's thoughts trailed off there. "Do you really think Ami cares that I don't dance to her singing?" she questioned, a little concerned.

"I'm sure it's fine desu." Suu said, yawning, "She's so little, she probably won't remember tomorrow." Amu nodded, reassured. Then, slowly, everyone fell into a soft sleep.

Amu slowly opened her eyes and she looked at her clock. I have one hour. She thought. After around fifteen minutes, she slowly got up and dressed. She was about to go down and have breakfast when Suu cracked her egg open.

"Amu-chan what are you doing, desu? You're not even wearing your uniform, desu." She said, confused and yawning.

"Wait, it's a holiday." Miki said, suddenly fully awake though stretching. Suddenly, Ran popped out of her egg, full of energy.

"Where are we going Amu-chan? Is it just a walk or are we going to do something fun?" she asked, her voice bright and cheery. Amu just sighed and walked downstairs.

She made herself some breakfast and ate it quickly. She then rushed back upstairs and grabbed a bag; it had some clothes in it. She quickly zipped it up and walked back downstairs. "I'm going for a walk guys, I'll see you later." With that, she left.

"Should we follow her?" Miki asked, sure Amu was up to something. Ran nodded and Suu smiled. So they left, keeping behind Amu at all times. She got on the train, to their surprise, and got off far from home. It seemed as if they were on the other side of the city.

"Where is she going, desu?" Suu questioned, worried, "Won't she get lost, desu?"However, it seemed as though Amu knew exactly where she was going, after a few minutes of walking, she entered a large dance studio. It was called Swing, baby, swing!

"What kind of name is that?" Miki asked, curious. The studio had large windows, allowing anyone to see inside. The three Chara's stayed outside to watch, being unable to open the door.

"Hi Kyoto-sensei, is Kyo-kun here yet?" Amu asked a woman, seemingly in her mid-twenties. She had dark brown wavy hair just past her shoulders, and her eyes were dark green.

"No," she replied, "he never is, I don't know why you ask anymore."

"Neither do I, I guess I'll change then." Amu replied, and then walked into a room in the back of the studio. When she came out, she was dressed in a black trumpet skirt, a v-neck navy blue tank top(it has thick straps that cover her whole shoulder), and some black shoes covered in velvet, with a heel(!). Her hair was completely down, no red X's at all. It seemed totally different from what she usually wore.

Just then a boy, seemingly around Amu's age, walked in. His short hair was a dirty blonde color, and his eyes bright green. Amu's characters followed in behind him and before Amu turned to look they hid behind a chair near the door.

"Yo Amu-chan! ready to dance?" He questioned. Amu smiled and nodded.

"As soon as you get dressed." She replied. He laughed and then went into a back room, he came out wearing wide legged black pants, a black shirt, a black tuxedo-like coat, with a white skinny tie, and rather shiny black shoes(!). "Okay then, all dressed, shoes tied, all we need is music! What do we have this fine early morning Kyoto-sensei?"

"We've got a classic." She replied, and then pressed a button on the stereo. The two began tapping their feet, to the music, when suddenly they burst into dance. The stereo blasted all sorts of musical instruments.

It was very old music, but it was fast-paced and the two danced like crazy. Their feet were all over, suddenly Kyo lifted Amu up over him. She flipped over his back and he offered his hands from underneath him, which Amu took, and he pulled her up. If you hadn't guessed it, they were swing dancing.(!!)

"Wow, it's atheletic." Ran said in awe.

"and artistic." Miki added.

"and fun" Suu supplied

"and hard." A voice said behind the three. They jumped and looked back, a shugo chara was behind them, his hair green and his eyes yellow. He wore a black shirt and pants, and his hair was cut short. A black feather rested behind his ear. "I honestly don't know why he does this." He continued.

"Who are you?" Suu questioned happily, floating around him.

"I'm Kyo's Shugo chara, name's Ryuu. I'm guessing you're Amu's guardian characters?" He said plainly, then he yawned.

"Yeah, you're right. I'm Ran." Ran answered

"I'm Miki" the artistic chara added.

"I'm Suu, nice to meet you, desu." The green guardian added.

"So Amu finally brought you? Kyo's wanted to see you for a long time. Amu always had an excuse though." Ryuu said, seemingly uncaring.

"Actually," Ran said, "we didn't know where Amu was going, we just followed her. She doesn't know yet."

"Whatever." Ryuu said, then he floated down to rest on the chair.

Meanwhile, Kyo and Amu were dancing. The two had upped their pace, and Amu was being swung all around. She let out a laugh and soon the music stopped.

"Want some water Amu-chan?" Kyo questioned, breathing heavily. Amu, also breathing heavy, nodded and Kyo disappeared into the back room.

I'm so glad I found someone to practice with. Swing is hard to do alone, and I had to find someone who would agree to meet at ridiculous times in the morning sometimes. The circumstances were perfect, he lived on the other side of town and had to practice in secret too. I'm practicing in secret because I didn't want anyone to know. He practices in secret because his girlfriend is a freak. She doesn't want him to practice with any other girls, but she's no good! She doesn't have to worry though, because Kyo-kun is loyal to her. I'm glad about that, it takes away the awkwardness somewhat. If I knew he liked me, or I liked him, I couldn't dance, Amu thought while Kyo got the water. Soon he was back and he tossed her a bottle.

"I really wish you guys were normal, I hate getting up early." The teacher said, "I swear you are better than any of my other students! Yet you have to do this in secret! Why does Kami hate me?" The dancers just laughed.

Kyoto-sensei then clicked the button again and the two began dancing. At the start of the third song, a few people stood outside the window, watching. When the two heard clapping, they realized that once again, they had been caught. Since neither of them recognized any of the faces in the crowd, they upped their dancing. By the end of the fifth song, the crowd had swelled and was clapping. The duo bowed, and then headed off into two different back rooms to change. By the time they were back in normal clothes, the crowd had dispersed.

"Okay, out you go. My real class starts in fifteen minutes." The dancing instructor said quickly. On the way out, Ran, Miki, and Suu hitched a ride on Amu's bag. Once out of the studio, they rushed up to Amu's face.

"Amu-chan that was amazing!" ran burst out excitedly.

Suu nodded and added, "Why did you tell us you couldn't dance, desu?"

"What are you doing here? Did you watch? How did you get here?" Amu yelled at the three. All three blushed and finally Miki explained.

"We followed you because you were acting weird this morning." She said slowly, afraid Amu would yell again.

"Are these your Characters?" Kyo questioned. Amu sighed and nodded as the three introduced themselves. Then Kyo introduced himself and Ryuu.

"We already know him, desu. We met when you were dancing." Suu explained.

Amu began talking to the three then, "Listen guys, I don't want you to tell anyone about my dancing. You are the only ones, besides Kyo and Ryuu, who know about it. I don't want to be made fun of."

"But Amu-cha--" Ran began but was cut off.

"NO!" Amu yelled. The three characters agreed. Soon they parted ways with Kyo and were on the train again. They got home just as Amu's parents woke up.

"Amu-chan where were you?" her Mama asked.

"I went for a walk, why?" she asked, her carefree dancing attitude completely gone now and her 'cool and spicy' character taking over. After no answer from her mom for what seemed like five minutes, Amu rushed back upstairs to put her bag away. When she opened her door she found…………
