Amu's POV
I really wish someone was here. I thought I could sleep, but I couldn't after all. I was standing outside on my balcony.I turned to look back into my room. Ran and the others were sleeping peacefully in their eggs.
"I need someone to talk to..." I mumbled.
"That can be arranged," Said a familiar voice of a certain dark blue-haired person.
I whipped around. "Ikuto!"
Ikuto walked forward and hugged me.
"It's been to long." Ikuto hugged me tighter and began sniffing my hair.
"Mmpph," I managed. I couldn't talk because Ikuto was burying my face in his chest,which made me blush, I was almost glad he couldn't see my face. After a while, I finally pushed away. "Don't sniff me, Baka."
"I can't help it. I can't stalk you if I don't have any way of knowing where you are, now can I?" Ikuto grinned.
"Then how did you find me just now?" I thought I'd got him.
"Like I don't remember where your house is?" Ikuto laughed.
"Baka." I was mad at him, but I couldn't help worrying about him...but I couldn't stop thinking about my nightmares either. There was an uncomfortable silence for a while. Eventually, my worry overcame my fear. "H-hey...Ikuto, do you have a-anywhere to stay...?" I finally stammered.
"No...why, is my Amu worried about me?"
"I-I'm not worried!" I retorted, blushing, "And I'm not your Amu. I'm not anyone's Amu." I turned my back to him.
"You so sure about that?" Ikuto asked.
"What..?" That's all I managed before he came up behind me and hugged me. I tried to pull away, put he held my wrists in front of me. He wouldn't let me turn or move. Ikuto just stood their hugging me for at least 10 mins.
"I-Ikuto..." I whispered, blushing bright red.
"Shh." He whisped back. I felt Ikuto move around. I couldn't feel his chest to my back anymore, but he still held my wrists, so I couldn't move. Ikuto moved his face next to mine. Our cheeks touched. I blushed. Ikuto licked my neck. It was a quick, short lick that chilled me. I shivered.
"I told you. I would come back for you. I've come, don't make me wait longer. I love you, Amu. I will, forever."
Ikuto's grip on my wrists weakened and I slipped out of his grasp. I turned to look at him. I stared into his eyes. I always had loved his eyes...they were beautiful, blue...dark blue eyes...
"I-Ikuto..." I stammered, blushing, I almost believed him. He looked so serious, it almost seemed like he looked sad at my hesitation.
"O-only you could look that serious and say that...I almost believed it, Baka." My cheeks were starting to return to their normal color.
"Oh? You still don't believe me..."
I was still watching his eyes. They almost looked sad, but I shook it off. Surely, Ikuto, who was always teasing me, just teasing me again? We have been apart for four years, how can he love me?
"Come on, Baka. It's too late to tell my Mom you're here, but you can't stay out here, you'll catch a cold," I mumbled.
"So you are worried about me."
"Shut up," I was about to shout, but then remembered it was the middle of the night, so I just whispered it, annoyed.
We walked into my room. Ikuto sat down on my bed.
"Your room is still the same, eh? That's good..." he mumbled.
"Eh?" I looked at him, he seemed lost in a memory. "Wait here, I'm gonna get you a blanket." I looked out my door to make sure no one was up for a glass of water or something. No one. Great. I can get a blanket from the hallway closet and get right back. I walked out of my door, I closed it silently behind me. In a few minutes, I had gotten the blanket and was about to open my door.
Click. I glanced behind me. Ami's bedroom light had flickered on. Oh no. I hurried into my room, threw the blanket on my bed and closed my door as quickly as possible without making noise. I almost slammed my hand against the wall as I clicked my bedroom light off.
I heard Ikuto breathing. "Shh!" I hissed from across the room. I was leaning against the door. I didn't notice Ikuto on my bed, but I assumed he was still there.
I heard the toilet flush. I waited a few minutes. I peeked out my door. Ami's room light was off. I sighed with relief as I turned my room light on. The blanket I threw had landed so it covered my bed completely. Where did Ikuto go? He had disappeared. No wonder I didn't see him when I walked in.
"One less thing to worry about," I mumbled to myself, even though I knew I was worried.
I lifted up my comforter and the blanket a bit. I climbed into my bed.
"Oh yeah the light.." I was about to get up again when a hand flashed out from under my comforter and grabbed my back and pulled me under the covers. The light turned off on its own.
