Disclaimer: You'll never guess. I don't actually own Shugo Chara!. Hmmm. I wonder why.

Zelda-chan: Hiiiii. Yeah. Uhuh. Okay, I'm going to stop that now. Here is the second (but not last, face desk) part to Give That Back. Hurray! Nagi and Rima are a proper couple and Amu still doesn't know. Everyone else does, though.

Excuse my blatant Tadase bashing; I really, really don't like him.

Thanks to my anonymous reviewer… I can't PM you, so I'll just thank you here…

Now, without further ado…let's get this show on the road!

Xx Give That Back xX

Part Two

~The Next Day~

"Ohayo, Rima-chan," Nagihiko's overly cheerful voice came, invading her dreamy state.

Rima looked at him, her head leaning on the school desk in front of her as she yawned. The rest of the classroom was somewhat deserted as she had arrived early, which meant there was no-one to stop her from falling asleep. She hadn't actually been asleep, of course, she was just replaying yesterday over and over again in her head.

"Ohayo, Nagihiko," she replied.

He sat down next to her, ruffling her curls as he did so. She couldn't help but smile at this, but she sat up properly anyway, turning in her seat so she was facing him. He flung his bag onto the floor, leaning back into his chair, and smiled at her.

Her heart melted.

"So, you don't want to tell Amu about us?" he asked out of the blue.

Rima frowned for a second whilst she processed his words. His hair was distracting her, too, which didn't help. It was so shiny…would he mind if she touched it?

"Rima-chan?" he prompted when she didn't answer.

"S-sorry, yeah. I mean, no! I don't want to tell Amu," she said, shaking her head furiously.

"She's gonna find out anyway," he told her. "Not necessarily from us."

Rima's mouth opened slightly as she gaped at him. She hadn't thought of that at all! Now that she considered it, it seemed really obvious. Why had Nagihiko needed to tell her that?

"Oh…" she said, blushing lightly. "Crap. I…I knew that!"

The noise he made irritated her beyond belief. He laughed at her. He laughed at her.

"Don't laugh at me!" she squeaked, intending it to come out as more of a yell.

That only made him laugh harder. He was trying to say something, but through his splutters his words were lost. She scowled and turned away, blushing lightly.

"Fine," she fake-sobbed. "If you don't like me."

His laughter stopped immediately and he cleared his throat, rolling his eyes.

"Okay, okay, sorry," he huffed, grinning at her.

"Don't grin at me," she complained, burying her face in her arms.

If he was going to treat her like that, then she would take her words right back and break up with him right away. Not that she could actually do that to herself, though, now that she'd finally managed to rope him in somehow.

"I'm sorry," he repeated. "It was funny, though."

She growled, turning her head to the left so she couldn't look at him even if she wanted to.

"Rima-chan," he sighed.

"Ohayo, Rima-chan, Nagi-kun!" Amu's voice echoed through the almost empty classroom.

Rima looked up immediately, her eyes darting from the boy next to her to Amu and then back again. Nagihiko beamed at her before turning to Amu. He nodded at her, grinning slightly. Rima supposed he was thinking about how Amu didn't know anything about yesterday. She, too, was pondering that. If Amu didn't know, she'd probably still whine at Rima to confess to Nagihiko, even if she (indirectly) already had. Actually, there was no probably about it.

"Rima-chan…have you been thinking about what we were talking about yesterday?" Amu said, breaking Rima out of her trance.

"Oh yeah," nodded Rima, scowling. "I have."

She heard Nagihiko chuckle at that and shot him a dirty look that only he noticed. In retaliation, he scooted his chair over to her and whispered for her to look at Amu. Rima did as he said and turned her face up to Amu, who was frowning at the pair. Rima immediately moved away from Nagihiko, punching him lightly on the arm.

"Rima…" Amu started. "Did you actually listen to me?"

"Urm…no?" Rima squeaked, not knowing what to say.

"So you're not going to confess?" Amu frowned.

Rima was getting pretty annoyed with Amu as she didn't understand the situation at all. She couldn't decide which was worse; Amu knowing about her and Nagihiko, leading to the blonde being teased to death, or Amu being oblivious and nagging at her all the time.

"There is no point in confessing when I don't even like him to start with," she lied coolly.

Huffing, she turned her attention to the open classroom door, waiting for their teacher to come in. If she recalled correctly, today was Project Day, meaning she had to travel all through the city with her partner to complete a question form. With no-one else but that said person.

Which, taking Nikaidou's creepy ability to know all the gossip before it even happened into consideration, was bound to be Nagihiko.

"Ohayo, minna!" a voice said from outside the classroom.

Rima sighed in relief as Nikaidou entered the room, dragging his bag in over the floor. He looked rather tired, but he was in his usual, overly happy state anyway. He flung a brown, paper bag onto the desk and cleared his throat, loudly.

"Class!" he yelled. "Listen! Hey, where is everyone?"

A loud chorus of 'Tadase-sama!' answered his question, and he rolled his eyes as Tadase strolled in, followed by his many fan girls. Rima always wondered how it was possible that Tadase had a fan base, seen as he was such a failure, but she dropped it and sat up straight, eagerly awaiting the assignment. A whole day in the city with only Nagihiko…she could get used to this.

"Okay, so I imagine you want to get going as soon as possible," said Nikaidou as soon as the rush of crazed fan girls had passed. "So let me tell you who's working with whom."

Rima smiled softly to herself as she crossed her fingers under the table. Not only was it (now) fun to be around Nagihiko; working with him could only mean good grades. She could already see herself receiving an A for their outstanding work.

"Hinamori Amu and Hotori Tadase," said Nikaidou.

An angry sigh spread through the room, whilst Amu squealed like there was no tomorrow. Rima swore to herself that she was not going to do that. Tadase winked at Amu, whose face turned the same hue as her hair. Rima chuckled inwardly, using the opportunity to glance at Nagihiko, who was biting his lip to keep from laughing.

"If you do that, I swear, I will die," he warned her.

She nodded; that sounded reasonable. Nikaidou was calling out names, and she heard neither hers nor Nagihiko's, which unsettled and relieved her. She was willing to bet Nikaidou was purposely not calling out her name, which annoyed her to no end. She gave him her worst glare and he grinned sheepishly.

"M-Mashiro Rima and Fujisaki Nagihiko," he quickly said.

Rima sighed slightly, restricting her squealing and happy dancing to internal emotion. Nagihiko had warned her, after all. Her A+ was waiting for her…

"Mashiro-san, come hand these out," Nikaidou called.

She huffed angrily before grudgingly standing up. She walked up to the desk, snatching the booklets from Nikaidou's hands. The booklets were named, and she set about handing them out, throwing Amu's in her face when she got round to her. Nagihiko snorted at that, shaking his head in amused disbelief. She slammed their booklet onto his table and narrowed her eyes, but she couldn't quite keep the smile off her face.

It took her a solid ten minutes to hand out all the booklets, after which the class was dismissed. No information was given, they just had to go out and figure out what to do by themselves. Nikaidou did tell them that they all had to be back by 3:15, though. Rima wasn't really listening. Everyone had a different place to go to, so Rima really was alone with Nagihiko, which suited her just fine. At least Amu wouldn't be there…

"Nagihiko," she said when they started their walk to the city. "What are we actually supposed to do?"

He shrugged. "Answer some questions about…"

He trailed off when he scanned through their paper bundle, looking for their location. Rima watched his face, carefully looking for hints to where they were supposed to go. His face lit up, his lips stretching into a huge smirk, as he let out a chuckle.

"…the Amusement Park," he finished.

Eep, a horrible thing called a filler chapter! Nooo! Yeah, don't hate me, because there is more coming! I'm hoping that this'll just be a three-shot, but I think it's going to turn into a whole story. Or it might stop after they've finished the project.

About said project…I got the idea from a similar thing I had to do a couple of months ago, only we had to go around the whole city, not just one specific area.

Well, I hope you enjoyed my crappy filler! The fluff is coming in the next chapter!
