That Illegal Kiss... –Chapter 2/Confused Emotions-
[Hey guys and welcome to chapter 2 of That Illegal Kiss... In the last chapter Amu and Kukai were paired up to be dance partners but had to learn to really flirt with each other and build up passion between them. After becoming friends and getting detention the two of them had a smooching session to try to improve on their flirting abilities between one another. But who was it that chased Amu out of the class? Was it Kukai her new caring friend or was it Ikuto her not so favourite teacher who got Kukai and Amu to smooch in the first place? You'll find all that out and more in this new chapter! Please remember I only own the storyline not the characters or anime! Enjoy! Love you all!]
'Amu...why are you crying?' He said standing next to her as she sobbed on the floor. The tears began to escape once more as she puts her hands to her face. 'Hey, I'm sorry! Please don't cry! Amu, please look at me...' He said kneeling down by her side and gently touching one of her hands. She flinches slightly but soon relaxes and stops her sobbing, she looks over at him to see a concerned Kukai next to her.
'Why did you follow me...I thought you'd hate me after that...' She replies as she brings her knees up to her face. 'Because I could tell you were upset. Did I do something wrong?' He asks frowning slightly. 'No you didn't, I did.' She responds as she sighs into her knees, he touches her cheek gently. 'I think you were amazing, if that is you acting then I wonder what it will be like for the guy you eventually get with.' He smiles gently at her as she looks at him. 'I highly doubt that. But thanks Kukai.' She smiles at him as she wipes the tears from her face and stands up with his help.
'I see you both really got into your roles. I knew I made a good choice when I chose you two for the lead roles. Now maybe not go that crazy on stage but never the less, well done, both of you.' Ikuto said from behind the teens, they both look over at him. 'Ikuto just leave me the hell alone ok? I don't want you as a teacher! I'm only dealing with it because you teach dance. I will act nicer towards you when you are teaching dance but don't think for a second that I actually like you.' Amu shouted at him as Kukai holds her hand gently.
'Well that's a shame...' Ikuto responded with a small frown on his face filled with disappointment. 'Oh yeah!? And why's that?' She responds as she turns to face him completely. 'Because I thought we were finally getting along, I was starting to like you as a student.' He sighed out in frustration shocking Amu. 'You should both get home, it's getting late.' He simply responded as he walked back to the classroom.
'Can I walk you home?' Amu snapped out of her stare as Kukai stood in front of her and smiled with his question. 'Oh, umm, sure thing...' She responds as they turned towards the front entrance of the school. 'Was I a bit harsh towards him?' She asked as they got onto the main road away from the school. 'What makes you say that?' Kukai asked with confusion laced in his voice.
'With the way I just snapped at him?' She says looking down at the floor as they continued to walk. 'Not really no. He took you out of your comfort zone, you had to vent your feelings at least you done it in a healthy way. Some people use their fists you actually faced the problem head on. So feel proud ok?' He smiles at her as they continue to walk side by side down the road. 'Hmm...I never thought of it like that. Thanks Kukai!' She smiles as she looks up and then back at him. 'I'm just up the road here, where's your place?' They both stop and look around. 'Just around the corner. I'll walk you to your door then meet you tomorrow morning. We can go to school together ok?' He asks with a cheeky grin. 'Yeah sure thing.' She walks over to her gate and looks back at him as she shuts the gate.
'I'll pick you up around 7:30 ok?' he says with a friendly tone to his voice before walking over to her and kissing her cheek gently. 'See you tomorrow Amu.' He walks off up the road as Amu runs into her house blushing. 'Welcome home Amu! How was the new teacher?' Amu's mum asks as she walks over to her from the kitchen. 'He was ok I suppose. Not sure if I like him as the teacher or not though.' She responds as she kicks her shoes off. 'Let me know when dinner is ready?' Amu's mum smiles slightly as she gets back to making dinner. 'Don't I always?' Her mum responds as Amu makes her way to her room.
As soon as Amu enters her room she locks the door as she hears someone knock on the door gently. 'What is it Ami?' She responds. 'Hey, how do you always know it's me!?' Her little sister asked. 'Because you're the only person who bugs me when I get home, what's wrong today?' She asks as she takes her school uniform off and gets her dance clothes from school back on. 'I just want to play today!' Ami responded with a giggle. 'Not today Ami, I've got homework tonight.' Amu replies as she turns her laptop on. 'Oh ok...maybe tomorrow?' Ami replied. 'Maybe, go and play with dad for now though ok?' Amu said as she gets her kpop playlist up on YouTube, she waits until she hears Ami's footsteps disappear down the hallway as she stretches then begins to play her music and come up with a 5 minute dance routine for dance class. She smiles at herself in the mirror as she finishes the routine off for a 10th time to perfect any kinks in her routine and the sharpness of her movements.
She opens the doors to her balcony and stands outside to breath in the cool air as she takes a sip from her water bottle. 'Amu! Dinner is ready!' She hears her mum shout up the stairs. 'Ok mum! Be down in a bit!' She sighs to herself before sitting down on her balcony floor and slips her legs through her railing. She thinks back to how the day panned out and touches her lips as she lays back thinking of Kukai kissing her before she suddenly has a thought of Ikuto pass through her mind she sits up and shakes her head to try and delete the thought from her mind, she sighs as she rests her forehead against the railing. 'He really is strange...' She says aloud as she thinks back to after she left the changing rooms to wait for Kukai, why did he press her hair to his lips? She shivered slightly after feeling the cool breeze suddenly pick up. 'Ok I need to stop thinking about that guy' She sighs to herself before she enters her bedroom again and shuts the doors once more.
After eating dinner with her family she had her usual late evening bath and came into her bedroom locking the door and dropping her towel to the floor as she got her panties on and her short night dress on, she looked out towards the balcony once more before locking the doors and slipping into bed. As she slowly falls asleep in her dark room thoughts of her and Kukai fill her mind, she dreams of them going out on a date and it ending up getting more intense between them ,compared to the classroom it was a whole other level, she twists and turns in her sleep as her thoughts suddenly turn to Ikuto, Kukai is nowhere to be seen as Amu is sitting alone in dance hall with Ikuto, she looks down to see she is wearing a short dress as Ikuto walks closer to her and strokes her cheek gently, Amu responds to this and moves her arms up around his neck and then down to his chest as she snuggles her cheek against his hand slightly. 'Amu...' She looks into his eyes as he moves in to kiss her passionately on the lips.
At this moment Amu jumps up in bed as her alarm starts ringing for her to get up, she turns it off as she brings her knees up to her chest as she breaths in and out slowly. 'That was some fucked up dream...' She climbs out of bed and has a quick shower before getting into her uniform and packing her dance shorts and a tight belly top along with her dance shoes and runs downstairs, she opens the door to see Kukai about to ring the doorbell.
'Well hi there' He says with a cheeky grin causing her to blush. 'Hi...' She takes her hair brush as she brushes her hair through before tying it up on the side of her head. 'How long have you been out here?' She asked as she stepped forward and shut the door silently behind her. 'I just got here, why?' He asks as he looks at her. 'Oh, because my family aren't up until about 8, my little sister's school is just up the road so it doesn't take my parents long to drop her off, that and the fact that my parents mainly work from home.' She replies as she waits for him to move.
'Oh right ok then, I won't ring the doorbell in future.' He laughs his reply as he kisses her cheek and steps to the side to give her room to leave her entrance. 'Thanks...' She replies shyly as they walk down the path and start walking down the road towards the school. 'Everything ok Amu?' Kukai asks with a concerned face. 'Yeah fine, sorry.' She replies as she holds her bag over her shoulder casually. 'Ok good, have you sorted out your routine for class?' He asks as he holds her hand gently. She blushes slightly as she looks away before looking back at him. 'Yeah I did mine last night. Why scared that mine is going to be better than yours?' She sticks her tongue out at him playfully.
'No! I've finished mine as well! I was just checking to make sure you had done yours.' He said as he pushed her playfully. 'Hey don't be mean!' Amu teased as she pushed him back playfully as well. 'How was I mean?! I didn't push you that hard.' He grinned back at her as he pushed her gently once more causing her to start giggling, as she continues to look at Kukai she accidentally bumps into someone.
'Oh I'm sorry...' She turns around to see Ikuto staring down at her causing her to blush slightly. 'Sorry Mr. Tsukiyomi, we were just having some fun.' Kukai responded as he took a hold of Amu's hand and stands next to her in a protective manner. She looks at Kukai with slight confusion as Ikuto continues to start down at her. 'Not a problem, just mind out where you are both walking.' Amu looks up at him. 'I don't want my best students to get hurt when your big performance isn't too far away.' He says as he looks them both over, his gaze becomes fixated on their hands. 'I see you still trust each other. Very good, I'll see you in homeroom Amu. Don't be late.' He says as he turns and heads up towards the school.
'I really don't like him.' Kukai says under his breath. Amu looks at him with concern. 'Hey, are you ok Kukai?' She asks before seeing his old friendly and cheeky self come back to his face. 'Yeah, I'm fine, I just don't like him is all.' He smiles at her before leading the way towards the school. 'Strange, you seemed ok about him yesterday? What changed?' She tilts her head as she wonders about his feelings. 'Nothing I just decided that I don't like him' He smiles at her. She shrugs off her weird suspicions of Kukai as they enter the school safely through the crowd of young mums.
They walk into the school building whilst discussing their dance routines and what outfits they think that they'll be asked to wear for the final performance. Amu smiles at Kukai as she comes to her homeroom door. 'Well I guess I'll see you in dance?' She smiles at Kukai. 'Sure thing, take care in your other lessons ok?' He smiles at her. 'And remember you are cool and spicy even when being yourself.' He smiles at her cheekily before making his way to his own homeroom.
She opens the door and walks in to sit down at her desk. 'Amu, could you come here for a second please?' she stops as she hears Ikuto's voice call out from the doorway. She turns to face him and nods, she walks over to him. 'What's wrong now?' She says to him in a bored voice. 'I just wanted to apologise for what happened in detention yesterday. I didn't mean to throw you that far out of your comfort zone or to upset you that much. I just want this performance to be perfect for you. Your previous teacher explained how this means a lot to you. I hope that I can help you to make it as big as you want it to be, I look forward to seeing your routine later.' He says with a small frown appearing across his face.
'I'm over that now, I was hurt because I didn't want to lose Kukai as a friend, now I know that we are closer I'm not so worried anymore. Besides this is a big deal to me, I'm just glad you paired me with the best male dancer in the school.' She says as she turns to go back to her seat before feeling his hand gently grab hers. 'Just be careful who you trust Amu.' His eyes were stern but filled with concern. 'I don't want you getting hurt.' He let go of her hand as the rest of the class enter and Amu goes back to her seat feeling like her head was going to explode.
The bell rings and everyone takes their seats. 'Good morning class, I hope you are all ready and prepared for all of your lessons today.' Ikuto says with a bored tone as he yawns slightly. 'Mr. Tsukiyomi? You look really tired today, did you not sleep ok?' One of the female students at the front of the class threw her hand up and asked the questions which makes the class go silent and look at him carefully. 'I'm ok thank you for the concern. I just had trouble getting to sleep last night, had a lot of things on my mind.' He responded as Amu looked down at him at the same moment that he looked up at her.
She blushes slightly but keeps her 'cool and spicy' personality up as she sits back casually. 'Oh I hope that it won't make you sick! That would be just awful!' The first students' friend says as she sits forward slightly while twirling some hair with her fingers. Amu rolls her eyes at the girls' immaturity, she couldn't understand the girls at her school, they were all fawning all over him like he was some god. It made her sick and what was worse is that she had some weird feeling in her chest every time he looked at her. She knew it was either hate or love, she bit her lip slightly. She didn't think she liked him, she was sure she didn't like him so she concluded that it was and always will be hate that she feels for him. 'Just make sure you all have a good day and I will see you all on Monday morning.' Ikuto says snapping Amu out of her mind babble as the bell rings.
The day progresses on and finally reaches lunch time, after getting her food from the cafeteria she makes her way to the outside seating and sits down on her usual bench alone. 'Anyone sitting here?' Amu turns slightly in her seat to see Kukai and his soccer team standing behind him. 'Oh hey Kukai, um, no one usually sits out here but me.' She replies as all the soccer guys look at Kukai with uncertain faces. 'So in other words all of these seats are free?' Kukai chimed in with his usual cheeky grin. She smiles back and nods slightly, Kukai sits next to her before looking at his friends. 'Well? What are you all waiting for?! An invitation? Sit down!' He yells at them causing them all to jump and sit down at the surrounding tables.
'Hope you don't mind. Didn't want you sitting alone and these guys always sit with me so I thought that we could all sit together.' He says with a caring smile. 'Thanks Kukai, that's really sweet.' Amu replies as she takes a bit out of her sandwich. 'So are you looking forward to dance class?' Amu asked him casually. 'To be honest, no I'm not.' Kukai replies with a gloomy look over his face. 'You don't want to dance with me again?' She frowns taking another bite of her sandwich. He shakes his head and looks down before looking at her again. 'It's not that at all, I just don't want you to feel uneasy again.' He says with a sad look on his face.
'Hey, look at me.' She says touching his hand gently, he looks up at her. 'I'm ok now, you know the reason why I felt uneasy yesterday, besides we're past that now. I'm looking forward to seeing what you've come up with for your routine.' She smiles at him as he holds her hand just as gently. 'Well if you're sure...' He says as she takes another bite from her sandwich. 'Just promise me that if he starts talking crap again you tell him how it is ok?' She nods slowly. 'I will don't worry.' She smiles as she finishes her sandwich. 'You don't have to be so worried about me ok?' She says carefully as she takes a sip of water.
'Maybe I don't have to be, but I am. I am because I don't like the way he looks at you.' He replies as he let's go of her hand and punches the table. She looks at him with a confused look on her face and puts her water back down. 'What do you mean?' She asks him with a demanding yet confused tone. 'He is always watching you closely in class, he smirks every time you are dancing. It just makes me so mad that he looks at you like you are some object!' He slams his fist down on the table once more. She holds his hand tightly. 'Kukai! Calm down. Honestly I think you are over thinking this entirely. He is just making sure I perform the moves correctly.' She smiles at him and touches his cheek gently. 'You know that this means a lot to me. The performance I mean. People don't realise how much I want to prove myself. Our previous teacher explained it to Mr. Tsukiyomi and he understands and is trying to help me out with that.' She explains trying to calm his nerves.
'Well if you think that is all he is doing, maybe I am over reacting a little bit, but I just can't help it. Especially how you reacted last night.' He explains to her with a sad tone to his voice. He soon perks up once she touches his face reassuringly and smiles at him. They then finish off their lunches and begin to discuss meeting up over the weekend to go over the dance moves. 'So I take it you want my number so you can call me when you get a studio sorted out?' Amu says to him as she leans forward on the table with one arm. 'Well that was the plan.' He replied with his signature cheeky grin. She nods as she takes out her phone and passes it to him after taking his phone to input her number, once this is done they exchange their phones back. 'So you're going to find the studio, tell me the price so we can split the cost?' She asks with a satisfied smile on her face as she packs up her rubbish and puts it in the trash before picking up her gym bag and school bag as the bell goes. 'Ready?' she says holding her hand out to him. He nods and takes her hand.
They are then inside of the dance hall after getting changed waiting for Ikuto to arrive and start class, Amu and Kukai are standing by the mirror stretching and chatting about their dance routines and showing each other some small moves from their routines. Amu is giggling at one of Kukai's moves when Ikuto finally enters the classroom, Kukai stands up and stands next to Amu as she continues to giggle before Ikuto stands in front of her.
'Something funny Miss Hinamori?' He asks coldly causing her to instantly stop giggling and look at Kukai. 'I was just laughing at one of Kukai's moves.' She looks down at the floor. 'You are here to learn not to laugh at others Miss Hinamori. You two join the others.' Ikuto says coldly as the class stand together in the centre of the room.
'Now you can all probably tell I'm not having a good day, correct?' the class respond with a confirmation each, Kukai stands next to Amu who is frowning slightly. 'I am going to say this once and only once. I do not want students accusing me of doing vile and disgusting things to them. I take my job seriously and never fraternise with my students! Are we clear!?' Ikuto shouted in frustration.
The class falls silent and Ikuto begins pacing up and down in front of the mirror. Amu continues to look down until she feels Kukai's hand tighten slightly on hers, she looks up at him as he smiles down at her. 'Now that we have that out of the way I just want to get straight to work with this routine and then go home.' Ikuto says as he puts his hand to his forehead. 'Kukai show us your dance routine that I asked you to come up with for homework. After that we will see Miss Hinamori's.' Ikuto states as the class stand next to him, Kukai reluctantly lets go of Amu's hand as he goes and puts his CD in to play his track. As the music starts up he stands in the last position he would have been in for the last part of the dance.
Once the beat truly kicks in Kukai dances his way into the centre of the room and performs several break dancing moves along with some chest pumps and body ripples. Once the song ends he runs over to the music player to switch it off. He looks over at Ikuto panting from the dancing and walks towards him. 'So, what did you think?' Ikuto stood up straight from the mirror which he was leaning against. 'I think we can brush up on your moves to make them sharper but that was good.' Kukai nods and gets his CD out of the music player and walks over to Amu.
'You're turn Miss Hinamori.' Ikuto says in a bored tone laced slightly with slight hope and excitement. Amu and Kukai high five as they switch places, Amu links her Ipod up to the sound system and presses play, as her music starts up she stands in the centre of the room and starts out with some small chest movements before the beat kicks in and she jumps up with a fist pump before doing some pelvic thrusts and then turning with another jump to land in for doing some butt pumps. She slowly turns to face the front in time with the music after this she does some body ripples and several body bops where she bops her butt out, she continues through until the end of her remix, at the end of her routine she is standing off to the right hand side of the stage and is looking to the left with an arm across her chest and holding her arm out towards where Kukai would be standing.
She runs over to the sound system and unplugs her Ipod before walking back to the stage and looking at Ikuto while taking a sip of water. 'How was that?' She asks between small pants and sips of water. 'Good, you could've put more emotion in your facial expression though, but other than that very good.' He replied as Amu bows in appreciation and makes her way over to Kukai's side and smiles at him.
'Now I know that the rest of you are still waiting for me to come up with the rest of the choreography and we should all thank our lead dancers for doing their homework and coming up with their dance routines. Without them doing that we would not be able to continue with the routine.' He walks forward to the centre of the class and claps in Kukai and Amu's direction with the rest of the class. 'Now I want to see everything from the beginning up until they both finish their individual routines. Kukai make your moves sharper and as soon as Miss Hinamori begins to move to the opposite side I want you to start moving towards her, as soon as she holds her hand out to your direction I want you to start your dance sequence ok?' Kukai nods sharply as he smiles at Amu. 'Miss Hinamori, I need you to put more emotion into it. Remember you want Kukai for yourself but at the same time you can't stand to be anywhere near him.' He keeps his gaze looked with hers until she nods with acceptance.
'Ok good, now everyone to your places and show me the whole dance from beginning to their final positions.' Ikuto claps his hands as his class moves to their positions. 'I will need your music each though, Miss Hinamori do you have a CD of your music?' Ikuto walks over to Amu before she gets into position with the girls. 'Yeah I burnt the remix on here last night.' She goes over to the table and hands him her CD as Kukai makes his way over and hands him his CD as well. 'Great thanks guys, I'll hang onto the both of these and make the track that you guys will be dancing to, also please keep in mind that we will have an hour's show slot to fill, I don't want any fucking around, you all really need to be on the ball with this and get everything right when it is taught to you so we just have a few bits to chisel to perfection like Miss Hinamori needs more emotion and Kukai has to be sharper in his movements.' Ikuto says as he puts both CDs into the sound system along with his CD so they all play one after another. 'Ready? Go!'
After 2 hours of gruelling practice the bell finally rings and Amu sits on the floor in exhaustion. 'You ok Amu?' Kukai and a couple of other guys stand next to her. 'Yeah just need to rest my legs for a second and warm down, I don't want to pull a muscle after all.' She smiles up at them as she begins to warm down her muscles . 'Ok I'll wait for you outside the changing rooms ok?' Kukai says with his signature cheeky grin before leaving with his friends.
After 5 minutes of warming down her muscles she stands up and stretches her arms outward and the upward. 'Your routine was very impressive Amu. We may need to add some bits to it though, I can see you and Kukai making some couple movements during some parts in your music and routine.' Ikuto says as he stands behind Amu, she turns to face him and nods before walking towards the table only to have him follow her.
'I just have one question for you Amu.' He begins to say before she turns to face him. 'What no more "Miss Hinamori"?' She asks with a slight anger to her tone. 'It's only because you went and told the principal that I was looking at inappropriately! I mean what the hell!? I've never touched inappropriately outside of class, every time we have had contact has been during dance class where you have been teaching me or I have been teaching you, so why the hell did you try to get me fired!?' He yells at her as she backs away from him to the table and he leans over her slightly.
'What the hell are you on about!? I've never said anything like that that to the principal! What good would that get!? If I have a problem with someone I tell them to their face now get the hell away from me.' She says as she pushes him away from her and begins to walk towards the door. 'If it wasn't you then who the hell was it!?' He shouts after her. 'Why don't you accuse the rest of the girls in this class!?' She yells back at him as she slams the door behind her leaving her Ipod behind without realising.
'What an asshole! What the hell is his problem!?' She mumbles loudly to herself as she walks past her classmates and bumps into Kukai who hugs her. 'Hey Amu, what happened?' He asks holding her shoulders and looking at her angry face. 'The stupid prick accused me of accusing him looking at me inappropriately! I never said that or anything like that!' She says loudly before looking for her Ipod in her pockets. 'Ah crap! I left my Ipod and my hoodie in there because he made me so mad! Could you go and get them for me please?' She asks him as she feels herself calm and feels her emotions stir up in her chest once more. 'Sure thing, just go and get ready. I'll be right back.' He smiles at her and kisses her on the forehead.
After Amu disappears into the girls changing room Kukai walks into the dance hall and looks around for Amu's belongings. 'What do you want Kukai?' Ikuto asks, anger laced in his voice. 'Just getting Amu's Ipod and her hoodie, she forget after you accused her of accusing you of looking at her inappropriately.' Kukai replies filling the room with tension and causing Ikuto to take a deep sigh of frustration. 'She told you...well I suppose that was inevitable. I just don't get it! If it wasn't her then who!?' He replies with a soft yet angry voice.
'Who indeed?' Kukai replies as he walks towards Ikuto who is still at the table where Amu's Ipod and hoodie lay. 'It couldn't be anyone else but her, I never spent that much time teaching the others individually. But she claims it wasn't her.' Ikuto says as he stands up and looks at the mirror. 'Of course she says it wasn't her. Because it wasn't her.' Kukai says as he picks up Amu's belongings. 'You know who it was Kukai?' Ikuto asks turning toward him.
He looks at Kukai as an evil smirk plays across his lips. 'Of course I know who.' Kukai responds, the evil smirk still on his lips. 'Who!? Who tried to cost me my job!?' Ikuto demands holding his hands out to him. 'Me. I told the principal that you were looking at Amu inappropriately. I know what the look that you give her means. But Amu is too naive to see through your lies as a teacher. You may be a teacher but I can also tell that you are very attracted to Amu, but I am always going to remind you to stay the hell away from her.' He takes a step closer to Ikuto and grips onto his shirt before pulling him down to his level so he can whisper in his ear. 'You EVER look at Amu as if she is just an object again and I will make the charges worse. You ever touch her in class, out of class. I will report you. You stay the hell away from Amu, you teach her but you don't touch her. And you can look towards her but never at her. Do we have an understanding? Sir?' Kukai says with poison laced through his voice.
He lets go of him as Ikuto looks at him in disbelief and the door opens behind Kukai. 'Kukai. I'm ready to go.' Kukai turns to look at her with a smile and nods before looking back at Ikuto with an expression that Ikuto knew he was serious about what he was saying. 'Thanks for the talk Mr. Tsukiyomi, I'll keep all of those points in mind. I wouldn't want to mess up after all.' He smirks one last time before walking over to Amu and hands her stuff back to her. Ikuto continues to look on in utter disbelief and shock while trying to make eye contact with Amu who looked straight past him as she left with Kukai.
As the two teens are walking up the road to Amu's house they were holding hands and giggling as they continue up the hill, Amu slows down when they get to the house they saw Ikuto come out of earlier that morning and she turned to look Kukai straight in the eye. 'What was he saying to you before I came in?' She asked him feeling her chest clench up feeling that something wasn't right. 'He was just giving me some pointers on how to make my moves sharper and how to look better for the role as we have to be the 'pretty people' as we are the main dancers.' Kukai replied casually.
'Oh ok, so he didn't say anything about my discussion with him before I came out to the changing rooms?' She asked as they continued up the path slowly. 'He seemed agitated but didn't mention anything about it.' He said looking over at her. 'Why do you seem so concerned about it Amu?' He was beginning to walk so slow that they were hardly moving. 'Because I want to know who lied and said that I told the principal that I accused him of looking at me inappropriately. It's just annoying that there are more rumours going around about me, or about me saying certain things to certain people.' She sighs out in slight frustration.
'You shouldn't over work yourself Amu. You do enough of that at school by having that outer character up all the time.' They had stopped completely now and were just a few houses up from where Ikuto lived. 'I suppose you're right, it's just annoying when people do that type of stuff behind my back. I mean you came to my face and told me what concerns you had about Mr. Tsukiyomi.' She said as he looked away slightly beginning to feel some shame for what he had done. He knew that he had made the correct decision though, Ikuto was looking at her with eyes that wasn't a teacher! He hated it and wanted to protect her from their teacher 'dirtying' her any further after making them get a connection between them.
They continue up the road and finally reach Amu's house after a long silence Amu walked to her front door, Kukai follows her to the door after looking down the road to see Ikuto enter his own house. 'Hey do you mind if I come in and hang for a bit?' He asks standing next to her and leaning on the wall next to her door way. 'I would say yes, but my family isn't exactly normal and I don't want them scaring you away, maybe another time?' She replies as she slips the key in the door and turns to face him. 'I'm sure they aren't that bad Amu! Besides I would rather see where you live, we are friends after all.' He says casually as he inches slightly closer to her while still leaning against the wall. 'I would say yes if you had my parents before but they won't leave me alone if I have a boy come over. They are really protective like that, and besides I promised to play with my little sister tonight. Sorry Kukai.'
He frowns slightly as she shrugs her shoulders slightly. 'I'm coming over this weekend though. I want to spend more time with you.' He begins to say and as Amu opens her mouth he puts a finger to her lips. 'And I don't mean down town, I want to hang out at your place, somewhere familiar to you that you feel comfortable at.' He says in a serious tone, she blinks twice as she looks at him and blushes slightly. 'I'm not taking no for an answer, besides I would rather meet them before I come round on Sunday.' He says with a pleading face. 'If I say yes will you quit using that face on me?' She sighs as she turns back towards the door. 'Maybe.' He laughs his reply. 'Let me just check if it's ok with my parents.' She responds as she twists her key in the door. Kukai nods and stays waiting outside.
'Hey mum, can I have my male friend come into the house?' Amu asks as her mum walks over to her from the kitchen. 'A male friend? What's his name? How old is he and what is your relationship with him?' She asks with a serious face shocking Amu before her mum bursts out into laughter. 'I'm kidding Amu, of course your friend can come into the house but you are both going to have to play with Ami because you promised her yesterday.' She makes her way back to the kitchen as Amu nods in agreement before taking her shoes off and opening the door for Kukai to come into the house. 'It's ok for you to come in Kukai.' She said as he stepped into the house and took his shoes off. 'Thank you for allowing me into your house Mrs Hinamori.' Kukai says with a bow as Ami comes running down the stairs and hugs Amu. The two teens go upstairs after Kukai had a small conversation with Amu's mum. 'Ami wait in your room, we'll be in soon ok?' Amu said as her sister ran off down the hall to her own room.
Amu sits down on her bed as she takes her school bag off and lays it on the ground, Kukai looks around her room in awe at the amount of girlie stuff she owns. 'So you are a secret lover of cute and frilly things?' He teases her, she sighs as she sits up. 'Those are from a while ago, I just never got rid of them.' She stands up and walks into her closet. 'Wait there, I'm going to get changed.' Kukai nods as he sits down on her bed and watches Amu turn her closet light on and shut the doors behind her, he looks at a picture of her from middle school he smiles gently to himself before standing up and going out to her balcony.
As he breathes in the fresh evening's air he doesn't hear Amu come out behind him. 'I like to come out here to think when I get in from school. It's the one thing I love about the same as dancing.' She smiles at him when he turns to face her. He smiles sexily at her outfit, she is now wearing a loose fitting off-the-shoulder top and a pair of hot pants showing off her long legs, he blushes slightly as she unties her hair to let it fly loose. 'What?' she asks him with a confused look on her face. He grabs her around her waist before pulling her close to his body and staring into his eyes just inches away from them being intertwined in a kiss. 'Nothing...you just look so sexy like that...' He winks at her causing her to blush as they move in to kiss.
[ohhhhhh! What's going to happen in the next chapter? Is her mum or sister going to interrupt? Are they going to kiss again? Will they fall for each other? You will have to wait for chapter 3 to be uploaded to find out the answer to that! Please R&R! I want everyone's opinions on what couple you think should be at the end of this story? Amuto or Kukamu? I already have a pretty good idea on how this is going to end but I appreciate my readers thoughts so please let me know what you guys think at this moment! Thanks! Peace out! ;) xx]
