--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Miki? What's wrong with Miki?" Panic rose deep inside me. I put my hands on Kusukusu's shoulders as shook her slightly. "Where is she? Is she OK?" Kusukusu dropped her head. This cannot be happening. I just had to know what was going.

"Himamori-san. Why are you out of class?" It was Nikaido-sensei. He came back with a book in his hands. "And why are you here Mashiro Kusukusu?"

"Something is wrong with Miki, sensei. I'm taking Hinamori-sempai to the front of the school. An ambulance is waiting outside."

"An ambulance?" That didn't come from the three of us. I turned around to find Ikuto and Yoru standing at the door. Yoru looked like he was really worrying. Is he acting guilty? Ikuto followed my eyes and saw the same thing. He frowned.

"Yoru?" Ikuto's voice was full of ice, making Yoru flinched and hid behind sensei. What's he playing at?

"It's not my fault. I found it in my pocket. I don't know how it got there. I don't even know who owns the inhaler." An Inhaler? What does that have to do with...Oh God...Miki's inhaler! Why does he have it?

"That's Miki's inhaler! Give it to me! She's had an attack!" I went berserk. Yoru fumbled in his pockets and finally got it out. I turned to Ikuto. "I don't ever want to see you and your little brother again. NEVER!" I grabbed the inhaler and made a dash for the door, Kusukusu followed close behind me. I heard Ikuto shout at me but I didn't catch. I don't want to hear what that jerk has to say.

"Hinamori-sempai!" Kusukusu called out to me, but I didn't answer back. My main priority right now was to get to the ambulance and give Miki her inhaler, before it was too late. I heard footsteps behind me. I recognise those footsteps. Tsukiyomi Ikuto. What does that jerk want?

"Amu, wait!" I didn't answer him. I just kept on running. I'm just glad I'm one of the fastest runners in the school, but Ikuto's catching up. It appears that he's fast as well. I sped up, bursting through the school doors, leaving Kusukusu and that jerk behind. Hold on Miki. I'm nearly there.

Like Kusukusu said, at the entrance to the academy was an ambulance and being put into the ambulance was Miki...minus her hat? I ran even faster. Ran, Suu and Dia came into view. "Amu-chan!" I reached them and handed Dia Miki's inhaler. She immediately ran to the paramedics, giving them the inhaler. Then...it went dark.

"Amu-chan."

"Tadase-kun."

"I have a present for you."

"A lock! Tadase-kun I love it."

"Amu-chan...Amu-chan..."

"Amu-chan! Wake up!" Was that Ran? Am I asleep? When did that hap...oh...right. I passed out.

"Please miss. You must leave now. Visiting hours are over...Please sir. Your girlfriend will be fine. She just needs to rest." Girlfriend? Who's girlfriend?

"No way! I'm staying right here!" Who's that? I can't recognise his voice.

"She's right, we should let Amu-chan get her rest." Yes. That's defiantly Ran. I could recognise her bouncy voice anywhere. I heard something that sounded like a door closing. Must be what it is.

"Please Mr. Tsukiyomi. You must leave this instant or..."

"NO!" I hear the door slamming this time and warmth on my hand. "Don't worry Amu. I'm here for you." Tsukiyomi...Tsukiyomi. Have I heard that name before? I have...but...where?

I felt something wet on my hand, followed by sniffling. "Idiot." Who's an idiot? "Why didn't I see it? Yoru...who does he think he is. Stealing someone's inhaler? He's gotten worse than before...Amu...please, I'm sorry."

The door opened again. I could tell by the creaking noise it made. "Ikuto-niisan? Papa wants you to go home now-nya."

"No...I'm not leaving until I apologise...and neither are you so take a seat and wait til she wakes." Ikuto. I...do I...I know that name. "Looks like you won't have to wait for long. Amu's waking up."

"Hmmmmmmm....wha? Where?" I attempted to sit up, but got pushed back down.

"No, don't. You need your rest." I slapped his hands away.

"Amu-nya?" My face flushed in anger, with hot tears streaming down my face.

"Getoutgetoutgetout!" It all came out fast, faster than I wanted. The events of what happened filled my head; Yoru taking Miki's hat, Ikuto being a jerk, finding Miki's inhaler in Yoru's pocket and the ambulance outside the school. Wait, where's Miki?

"Miki!? Miki! Where is Miki? Where is my cousin?" Ikuto again tried to get to lie down, but I had none of it and pushed him off so hard he stumbled backwards into one of the chairs. I tossed and turned to get out of the mountain of covers on me. I hate it when I have those fainting spells and they put all these blankets all over me thinking that's what I needed.

"Ikuto-niisan! Maybe we should just leave Amu alone." Yoru was at that jerks side in seconds despite the fact he was on the other side of the bed. I finally got all the blankets off me and raced out the door. This was a private hospital owned by my Grandfather so he had special rooms for us if we ever got sick.

I ran into the room mark 4. It was Miki's room and there she was, lying unconscious on the bed with one of those breathing masks over her mouth. All those gadgets were hooked up to her. The only sound in the room was the heart monitor beeping at a regular rate and Miki's slow breathing.

I grabbed one of the chairs and sat beside her bed. I heard the door open and close again. I was expecting it to be one of our doctors, but it wasn't. It was Yoru. He didn't look at me. His head was down, his ears flat on his head and his tail wrapped around his waist. I noticed something in his hand; Miki's hat.

"I just came to give Miki back her hat-nya...I didn't know she had an inhaler hidden in it..." Yoru lifted Miki's head and put her hat where it belongs. There was an awkward silence between us. Someone had to break the ice. I would but that's not my character. I was always the silent, responsible one. Ran was the sporty one, Miki the artistic type, Suu the sweet and pleasant and Dia was the singer. For once I should just swallow my pride and speak up.

"Um Yoru..."

"No!" Yoru interrupted me. "You have every right to be angry with me, everyone does-nya. I took Miki's hat and won't give it back, even when she said that there was something important in it. I just thought she was joking so I would give it back-nya...When Ikuto told me to go to class it had a double meaning...He saw that I had Miki's hat and wanted me to give it back. He must have seen the inhaler. But then you interrupted and I went to your class-nya...Ikuto spotted the inhaler in my pocket where the hat was as well and we went out to give it to you but you completely flipped and ran off..."

"Without letting us explain what exactly happened." Both of us turned around and found Ikuto standing at the door. I didn't even hear him come in unless...

"I came in with Yoru and just waited for him to finish what he was doing, when I noticed you sitting there... -sigh- how about we just talk." Well that's a first. Ikuto has never just talked. All he wanted to do was flirt.

"You should go talk to Ikuto-niisan. I'll watch Miki for you-nya...I have to apologise." I did what they both asked and left the room with Ikuto. I would have talked outside the room, but with so many nurses and doctors walking and running around, I lead the way back to my room.

No words were spoken; only the voices of families talking and doctors were telling nurses to get a move on. Some nurses think they're such know-it-all's, but they get proven wrong and in the end they're fired. We eventually made it back to my room. It felt like it took hours because of the silence between us.

Once we entered there was someone sitting on my bed? He had short blonde hair, but the front part of his hair was longer; nearly to his shoulders. His fringe parted to the left and there was one lock of hair sticking up, defying gravity. The eyes I will never forget; a mix between pink and red.

"Tadase-kun?"
