A/N: Thanx for the super sweet review DemonWitchCat! Because of that I will continue to write this story until someone adopts it! By the way ideas are ALWAYS welcome.
I NO OWN SHUGO CHARA*sobs*
Of Guards and Feelings
Oni had been waiting all day to be transferred, but she was scared. What would the other patients be like? Would they like her? Could they possibly see through her act? These thoughts kept going into a full circle the whole time she waited for her ride. To her going there would also mean keeping up this act all of the time, too. She just knew she would slip up!
"Hey, mister guard? Oni would like to know the nice guard's name please."
"The name's Ikuto Tsukimori, don't forget it kid."
"Oni will never forget Iku-kun's name! Why would she?" Ami was sad to leave and curious about why she would forget.
"Because you and your sister are a lot alike. I knew her you know," Ikuto stated looking at you with an unreadable expression.
"Eh! You knew Tenshi also? Did you notice what she was feeling also? Why didn't you help her!" at the end of her questions her mask became cracked.
"My answer is that I couldn't because she would not accept my help or tell me what was wrong, Ami," He truely looked forlorn to her.
"It's okay Iku-nii! Tenshi and Oni will both forgive you because you're nice. Oni also misses Tenshi, so we can miss her together!" Ami replied, trying so hard to ease his sadness.
Ikuto tried to smile, but it turned into a grimace. They both spent their time passing stories about Amu back and forth. To her this was a relief and a freedom of release to her feelings. She hoped Iku-nii gained the same relief. The time came that they were to part, though.
"Hey Iku-nii, you'll remember me right?" She asked hesitatingly.
"I'll remember you as long as you remember me," Ikuto said teasingly.
"It's a promise!"
