RosarioXX: I want to personally apologize for my lack of enthusiasm in writing lately. I have left you all waiting in the dust why I sulk for my own personal reasons, and for that I am greatly sorry. I wish I could apologize for not actually writing much, but the way I've been feeling lately the entire story would have been sloshy, horribly written, and not paid much attention to. Even now I feel as if I need to go over my work a thousand times to make sure I'm not slacking on my part. *HEADS UP* I have started school, and take an online writing class during one of the hours, so I may not update for no longer than 3 weeks maximum at a time (shorter than 3 months I promise) for I am going to be studying new ways of writing styles to create my own –better- ability to write. I'm looking forward to be writing for you guys, and thank you dearly for all the reviews. Honestly, the reviews are what keep my going. To bust my enthusiasm I re read them a lot, and honestly I am grateful to you all… thank you. I shall no longer keep you waiting in the dust! Here's chapter 2. Also if you enjoy reading this story please try reading my other story 'WoRlD Of WaR'. Let us begin!
Disclaimer: I do not own Shugo Chara in any way possible. I am just a young writer who enjoys the thrill of writing Fanfiction. Also, each chapter I personally upload belongs to me, and I would greatly appreciate being asked permission to use, or take anything from my stories. Thank you for respecting my wishes.
Chapter 2: Speech.
_Amu's POV_
Sighing, inside the recording studio, I couldn't help but to think of the previous events that took place earlier today.
~!FLASHBACK!~
"Hi my name's Kukkai Souma age 19! I play the drums, eat food, and love soccer!" Holding a thumb up, he grinned at me widely. Kukkai had vibrant orange hair, and brilliant green eyes. Not to mention his boyish cute grin that I couldn't help but to blush to. Sadly, it caused a scene of Nikaidou-San rallying on about how "cute" I am.
"Calm down Nikaidou-San, you might frighten her. Hello Hinamori-San. My name is Kairi Sanjo age 17. I play the piano and sometimes other instruments as well. I study at the dojo for samurai skills, and other things I am associated with. It is my pleasure to be acquainted to you." His face was stern as he bowed down gracefully out of courtesy; in this motion his dark green hair had fallen across his sea blue eyes that were shielded by his glasses. From his features you could tell easily that he had been raised in a proper household, more upheld than my own.
"Ana… eto, it is my p-pleasure as well S-Sanjo-San." Blushing lightly, I turned over to the tall purple haired man. His eyes were a mystical light brown, and his dark purple hair flowed to his color bone.
"Why hello, I'm Nagihiko Fujisaki, but please call me Nagi. I play the guitar, and backup vocals when needed. I'm 18, and it's nice to meet you Amu-Chan." Smiling sweetly at all the men I had just met, I couldn't help but to bow respectively.
"I'm H-Hinamori Amu, and I'm 16. I will be s-shadowing I-Ikuto for my artist degree in collage. P-Please continue doing what you do, and don't mind me." Smiling all at me intently they patted me on the back at welcomed me warmly. The blush was clearly shown on my face as the chit-chatted to me about their lives.
~Flash Back OVER~
I met three new people in one day. It wasn't as much as I usually meet at my parents business parties, but it's the most I've met around my age that aren't snobby. Sighing intensely, I decided to pay attention to the new song they were about to present.
"All right guys let's play the new song you boys wrote. If it's good enough we'll see if the higher ups will let you put it in the new album." Nikaidou-San spoke in a stern serious tone.
"All right let's do it!" Kukkai pumped causing me to giggle. I didn't know some guys could be so energetic. Grinning he walked into the studio behind Nagihiko and Kairi with a glaring Ikuto behind him.
"W-what's his deal?" I asked Nikaidou-San with my head tilted. While shrugging his shoulders, he placed his finger on his chin.
"He's probably upset because usually girls fawn over him yet you on the other hand-." With nothing but a glare into Nikaidou-Sans direction, Ikuto placed the headphones over his ears. Coming back to my senses, with Nikaidou-San clinging behind me, I pondered over what he could have possibly meant to say.
"L-let's just start already!" He whimpered from behind the protection of my body. I wasn't sure if this scene was quite right, but I decided to shut up and watch what I came here to see.

At the end of the song I was blushing madly and staring through the plain see-through glass. They wrote that song? That insanely sexually induced song? Yet knowing teenagers, they wouldn't think twice about singing it in the hallways, which I guess was the point; to get people to want to sing along no matter where they were.
"Amu-Chan what do you think about it?" Blushing madly I looked down at my paper getting ready to answer.
"I-It w-was actually g-good… I know a l-lot of teenagers w-would l-love it" Smiling at me Nikaidou-San shook his head.
"I mean what do you personally feel about it?" He questioned sweetly, turning his head ever so slightly to the left. Thinking about my personal feelings for it, I sort of looked down blushing.
"It's a b-bit s-sexually induced for me, and i-isn't exactly the k-kind of music I'm u-used to being around…, b-but I enjoyed it." Nikaidou-San smiled, approving the song, and sent us home.
Humming along the park I decided to sit underneath a tree. I plugged in my headphones, and began singing a song my mother had taught me when I was little.
"Habataitara modoranai to itte
Mezashita no wa aoi aoi ano sora
Kanashimi wa mada oboerarezu
Setsunasa wa ima tsukami hajimeta
Anata e to idaku kono kanjou mo
Ima kotoba ni kawatteku-." Before I could finish the next line, a voice interrupted my own.
"You aren't too bad." Hanging upside down from a branch was the same man I had seen just days ago.
"Y-YORU!" I hollered clinging to the tree. Chuckling lightly with a smirk ever so clear on his face, he swung down from the tree standing beside me.
"Well obviously, who else would it be?" Smirking down at me, he held his hand out in my direction. Placing my hand in his, I was lifted my feet within seconds making me hand in hand with Yoru. I couldn't help but to stare at our hands with a blush on my face. Smirking he leaned down to my height so he was just inches away from my face.
"Hmm is there a problem Amu-Chan? Your face is all red… You're okay aren't you?" He cooed onward causing my blush. Trying to hide my face, I turned my head and kept walking without noticing our hands still intertwined.
"U-Urusai!-." I stuttered (A/N: I haven't done these in a while, but for every Romaji word I use I will write the English meaning at the bottom of the page!)
"- I am n-not r-red!" I retorted feeling my cheeks heat up. Turning to the side I felt his muscular hands tug on my own.
"Hai, hai whatever you say. Shall we go then Hime-Sama?" He asked with his smirk still in place. Looking up at him I lost all trace of embarrassment.
"Nani? Go where? Yoru, where are you taking me?" Questions span off my tongue as if they were the spinning teacups at the carnival.
"My, my Amu-Chan, you ask a lot of questions. Since you bothered me from my cat nap it's only fair you make up for it by accompanying me today, don't you agree A-m-u-Chan?" He symbolized my name causing my blush to come once again upon my soft velvet cheeks.
"I-I guess… Demo I h-have a class early in the m-morning so I can't be out late." I stated as he dragged me off to Kami-Sama knows where. Chuckling he turned the corner and stared down at me.
"It isn't a date we won't be gone forever. Unless, did you want it to be a date?" My cheeks burned of a bright red. Turning away with my nose to the air, I huffed and let him drag me off.
"Baka ja? Th-there's no w-way this is a d-date!" With his chuckles booming even louder, we crossed the street and headed east.
"Y-Yoru?" I asked looking up at him. Looking down at me he raised an eyebrow.
"Yes?" Gulping down hard, I felt my cheeks tint a pink at the question I was about to ask.
"Well… I k-now you and I-Ikuto are cousins s-so I was w-wondering if he t-told you anything a-about me…" Smirking full heartily, I felt as if he was having his own victory party.
"Well a matter of fact he said that you were pretty hot for a-." Blushing brightly, I stopped walking yanking Yoru back with me. Standing with my legs and arms straight I was bent over as I yelled.
"T-THAT'S N-NOT W-WHAT I M-MEANT BAKA!" Silence surrounded the streets as everyone stared at me. Blushing I bowed down to the people of Japan.
"Sumimasen mina-san!" Nodding understandingly they all went back to what they were doing. Staring down at me Yoru was wide eyed.
"Nani?" I asked looking up with a blush. He probably thinks I'm crazy now.
"Nothing… What did you mean then?" Still holding my hand, he led me onward.
"Well... Nikaidou-San s-said that girl's u-usually f-fawn over I-Ikuto, but I something… He didn't get to f-finish. So... I t-though that m-maybe you c-could t-tell me?" Stiffening up he shrugged.
"Usually girls drool at his feet, and you don't. That's all there is too it." He spoke nonchalantly. Huffing with a small snort I rolled my eyes.
"Who would go for such a jerk like him? I mean not even ten minutes after he met me he hated me! He couldn't even look at me! And he has the nerve to say I'm hot? Of course I wouldn't just FAWN over him, a guy that doesn't even spare two words to me!" Starring at me surprised he smirked, and leaned down to my face.
"Hai, hai I get it. Did you notice the same thing I did though?" Blushing, I slightly tilted my head to the side trying to think of what he could have possibly meant.
"What do you mean?" I questioned still confused on what the subject was.
"Well, you didn't stutter throughout a word you said." Widening my eyes I looked up at him surprised.
"It was probably, because I was mad…" Smirking he wrapped his arm around my shoulder and kept walking. Curling his fists into a ball he began giving me a small noogie.
"Then what's you're excuse now?" Looking up at him I could see the smirk plastered on his lips. Blushing wildly, I looked away trying to drop the subject.
"I have no clue what y-you're even talking about!" Smirking he made a "Mhm" sound, and stopped in front of a small boutique. The outside was covered in small red, green, blue, and yellow roses. It was really beautiful, and I gasped at all the outstanding clothes in the window display. The sun was in the middle of the sky indicating it was noon. Looking over at the glass display of clothes, I could see the sun rays making sparkles against the fabric. It was breathe taking that clothes could have such life on such soulless models.
"Would you like to go in?" Yoru questioned staring at my opened mouth.
"Uhuh!" Without thinking I yanked him in to the small yet life filled boutique. The inside was just as lively as the out. Colors were everywhere splattered on the walls, and on the floors. The mannequins were in funny poses that best show off the clothes. Not only were there skinny mannequins but thicker ones as well; to show off how it would look on all sized people. I wanted to get this very cute outfit, but I wasn't sure if it would look like that on me. Usually when I buy things that were on display the mannequins would have ties making it baggier on an actual person than a mannequin makes it look. I looked at the mannequin to see there were no ties in the back, to keep the clothes from bagging. I was completely amazed to be perfectly honest. Walking up to me nice and thrilled, a blonde haired green eyes beauty waved hello handing me a slip.
"This is a slip for 50% off any of your purchases. I am Sue, and I hope you enjoy your stay-desu!" Smiling brightly with a blush on my face, I gave a nod in her direction.
"But of course, and thank you!" Bowing respectfully towards me, she left off to welcome the other comers. I saw Yoru staring at me through the corner of my eye, blushing slightly I tried to pay attention to the clothes that surrounded me. There were styles for all kinds off types! The punk, the emo, the athletic, the jocks, the princesses, and all the styles you could possibly think off! It was fascinating to me that clothes could have such life. Picking out a pair of plaid skirts, thigh high socks, tank tops, skinny jeans, and t-shirts, I stopped looking at the jewelry. Not only did the clothes have life, the jewelry as well had more life than a human being itself. I looked at a lovely pair of 'X' clips, and purchased a whole colorful set of them! When I was finally done I started walking out, but something had caught my attention. Looking back I saw a phenomenal gold lock and key set. The keys top was shaped in a four leave clover with crystals lining the inside of the clovers; yet the lock was just a simple gold lock but the inner core was that of a four leaved crystal clover indicating luck. Together they were one, and I couldn't help but to fawn over its beauty.
"Oh look at them Yoru aren't they just… beautiful?" Silently agreeing, he decided to stay a little longer. He ended up wondering off to find a store manager for some help on finding his 'amazing style' for it was 'one of a kind'. Humming, skimming and looking at the clothes I had bought, I couldn't help but realize how beautiful they looked even in the bag that was captivating there beauty.
"I was right-." Yoru said yanking me out of the store.
"They have nothing that could possibly suit my one of a kind style." Rolling my eyes we walked onward spending the rest of the day talking about each other.
Sitting down on the benches outside we set our food on the table, and began to eat.
"So tell me why you had to graduate early?" Yoru asked as he munched on his food. Sighing I popped a piece of bread in my own mouth and began to chew, once I swallowed I answered his question.
"Well… My family feels as if I'm holding them back, and the only way I can prove I'm not is by showing my smarts. My mother wants me to be a model, and my dad wants me to be an actress… yet they feel as if they're wasting their hopes on me being something I have always wanted to be, an artist. Not just in drawing, painting, etcetera, but in all artistic categories. Instrumental, singing, dance, painting, drawing, sketching, designs, fashion, models, writing; everything humanly possible to the category of art. I know in the depth everything is considered and art, but it's the simpler meaning of arts that I wish to study… or should I say more profound?" Thinking deeply to myself Yoru looked up at me with such intent eyes I could feel him burrowing through my soul, trying to find what I myself couldn't.
"I see… Why can't you're parents just love you the way you are?" He questioned, now folding his hands under his chin, ignoring the mouthwatering food that would amaze most others than I.
"Don't get me wrong… they love me for who I am. They just don't love me for what I love… Does that make sense?" I spoke looking up towards the sky thinking off all the possibilities of how that could make sense.
"Yes it does when you put it that way. You are very interesting you know? It seems like your mind is in another world." Looking at him curiosity at my tongue, I decided to stay quiet to let him further explain.
"More so not in another world, but from another world. Like your brain has time to process everything in the matter of seconds still leaving room for more process. It's quite fascinating once you think of it; and here I thought you were just a pretty face." Rolling my eyes, I leaned over the table causing my bubble-gum pink hair to fall past my butt on to the concrete ground.
"If I was just a pretty face would I have graduated from high school early and already be one of the top student in my entire collage campus?" Swaying his head from side to side it seemed though he was playing around with an idea in his head. Punching him lightly in the shoulder I took his wondering as playfulness. Seeing as he chuckled almost instantly I suppose my conclusion was correct.
"You aren't as bad as I thought. I liked your little speech by the way, about the arts, it was intriguing." Rolling my eyes once again I couldn't help but to see the brighter side of Yoru after that. He understood everything I was dishing out to him, and that alone was a first.
