Chapter Two

Big purple eyes glared at me from across the kitchen table. Utau had already arrived five minutes earlier than usual, since she wanted to talk to me in person before Amu showed up. Thankfully the 'talk' wasn't a long one.

"So," she stared me down, "you let Tadase catch you spying."

I nodded, and quickly avoided her gaze. Suddenly, the ordinary table I always ate breakfast on was intriguing. It shook violently as Utau slammed her hands on the table, "Damn it, Rima! What the hell is wrong with you?"

I felt so bad, "Sorry, I got distracted…it'll never happen again." I tried smiling, but it was painful.

Utau just stopped, and looked at me in surprise, "Distracted? By what?"

Okay, that surprised me. Did she not notice Nagihiko behind me? I laughed, partly from nerves, "Nagihiko, he was there the whole time!"

She was about to grin, but suppressed it, remembering we were fighting, "Uh, Rima, nobody was there…"

"What?" I repeated my confusion out loud, and I sounded stupid. But when I thought about it, Nagihiko never spoke or made any noise after Tadase left and Utau came outside. Did he leave? Did I never intentionally ignore him at all?

Utau stood up out of her chair, and walked over to me. She suddenly wrapped her arms around me and gave me a big hug.

"I'm so sorry Rima! I didn't know," she whimpered, squeezing me even tighter. I tried to regain my breath, since I thought, seconds ago, we were seriously fighting.

"It's okay, it's okay," I hugged her back, "mostly my fault."

She grinned, "Well, that's true!"

"Hey," I fake-slapped her.

Utau then sighed, "What was Nagihiko even – "

The door flung open, and Amu rushed in. She yelled, "I'm sorry I'm late!" Her pink hair had been quickly tied in a messy ponytail. Her eyes shifted over to the clock, and she gaped.

I announced her suspicion, "You're not late, in fact you're early~!"

Amu groaned, shut the door, and dragged her legs over a chair. Utau and I shared a glance; we both knew Utau had something to tell me…privately. But right now, my fate was being decided for the next three months.

But Utau didn't want to take her time, "Okay, I want to go home soon, so let's get this over with." She leaned over to Amu and whispered something in her ear. Amu blushed, and started flailing around.

"U-Utau, that's really risky! I think Rima probably won't like that…" she frowned, and looked at me for a second before avoiding my gaze.

Utau sighed, "It's not about our needs, you know, the three of us, it's about the reward in the end. The only reason you don't like this idea is because you seriously like the guy I'm choosing."

"No I don't! You're trying to trick me," Amu shouted at Utau, stilling embarrassed. Personally, I thought Utau was right, and I was scared about who the guy was. Utau raised a suspicious eyebrow at Amu, until finally she realized that if she kept denying the idea, it made her look like she loved him (whether it was true or not).

I got prepared for her bitchy phase.

"Fine, he's just a little bitch," she glanced at me with these stone cold eyes, "she can have him."

Utau changed completely too, and crossed her fingers happily. She faced me, beaming with excitement, "The guy you'll be messing up is…!"

Amu slapped a hand over her mouth, and a muffled noise came out. She stated her opinion like it was the only one that mattered, which was cool, "Write it on a piece of paper."

"Why?" Utau and I both asked in unison.

She shrugged, "More suspense, I guess."

[A/N: or so it didn't end in the middle of Utau's sentence. _]

So, Utau quickly snatched up some notepaper from Amu's bag, and a black pen. Her hand moved fast, as she desperately wanted to see my reaction. Then in less than five seconds, she slapped down the paper in front of me.

[A/N: ooooh this will be a big surprise… but am I being sarcasticccc? :O]

I closed my eyes, and took a deep breath as I picked up the slip of paper. I lifted it up to eye level, and took a peek. It was so obvious after Amu's reaction, but I couldn't believe it. This would be a challenge, and really…perverted. Secretly, I couldn't wait to get started.

I didn't think it would be so involved with my two bitch friends. One, Amu denied it but she loved him, and two, it was Utau's brother. Yep, the paper read 'Tsukiyomi Ikuto'. I started to say the first words of the long months to come, "This will be interesting."
