Sarah-Hello! Here's another Shugo Chara! one-shot. Hope you like it!

Ikuto-Well, I bet this one will be better than the first one.

Amu POV

I was awaken in the morning by a really scary nightmare. It was awful. There was a bunch of clowns and creepy ghouls chasing me around for no reason. I shivered at the thought of that dream. I felt really uncomfortable and warm. Strange. It was early January and it was warm. I got out of bed and changed into my school uniform. My body felt strangely weak. I stumbled out of my room and nearly fell when I walked downstairs. On the table was my breakfast: toast and eggs. Normally I love having that for breakfast, but today, I didn't feel like eating anything. My mother stared at me.

"Amu, are you feeling alright today?" she asked with a worried tone.

"I-I'm alright" I said. All of a sudden, I fainted.

3 Hours Later

I found myself in bed. Weird. Didn't I already wake up in the morning? I looked at the time. Wow, I really overslept. Oh right, I fainted earlier. I tried sitting up right when my mother walked in.

"Oh, Amu! You're awake!" she said, relieved.

She took my temperature. Turns out I had a fever of 104 degrees.

"Amu, I have to go to work today. Will you be fine at home alone?"

"Of course! I've stayed home many times before haven't I?"

"Okay, I trust you. But don't push yourself. I'll just give you your medicine and leave."

She opened a small bottle and took out two small pills. She handed me a glass of water and the two pills. I gulped down the pills and the entire glass really fast, for some reason I was really thirsty.

"Make sure to take two more at 5:00!" And with that, I was alone at home.

Tadase POV

I stood at the bridge near Amu's house. I wanted to "accidentally" walk her to school. I stood there, waiting for, I don't know, 5 minutes or so.

Where is she? Did something happen? Man, I don't want to ruin my record of perfect attendance. I should go.

I sprinted as fast as I could to get to school on time.

Maybe she left really early today. Maybe she's at school already.

I ran up the stairs to my classroom. Before I entered, I smoothed out my uniform to make myself look nice and tidy.

"Tadase-sama!" I heard Saaya Yamabuki exclaim. I turned around and found her trying to act all feminine.

"Umm, Tadase-Sama. I was wondering if you'd like to come with me-"

The classroom door suddenly opened.

"There you are Hotori-kun!" said a boy with long purple hair.

Thank you Fujisaki-kun! I am so glad you always come in the right time.

"Fujisaki-kun! How are you today?" I said as I walked into the classroom, avoiding Saaya.

As soon as I was sure she was out of ear shock, I thanked him for saving me. Thankfully, I also made it to school right when Nikaido-sensei was about to start class.

"Everyone! Take your seats!" he shouted, trying to get everybody's attention. I sat there, staring at Amu's empty desk. I hoped she would at least come to school. Otherwise, Rima would just be glaring at Fujisaki-kun the whole time we're in the Royal Garden.

"Tadase Hotori," Nikaido-sensei called as I was spacing off. Fujisaki-kun, who sits in front of me, turned around and hit me in the head, hard. Instantly, I snapped out of my trance and said, "H-hai!"

The entire day, I sat in class thinking about Amu and why she wasn't here. I came up with many theories:

was kidnapped.

got in a car crash.

skipped.

was sick.

There were a lot more that he made up. As he was making up another reason Nikaido-sensei called my name.

"Can you bring today's homework to Hinamori-san after school?"

As soon as class was over, I sprinted out of the classroom door (and accidentally knocked over Saaya Yamabuki) and ran all the way to Hinamori-san's house. I knocked on her front door fifty times or so, desperately hoping that she was alright. The door was finally opened by a tired and sick Amu. Even though she had a really bad bed head and looking really tired with squinty eyes, I still thought she looked adorable.

"Tadase-kun?" she said, while looking like she was about to pass out.

"Um, I brought you today's homework."

"Oh, um th-thank you T-Tadase-kun," she replied, stuttering like crazy.

She took the homework and was about to close the door.

"Wait!" I exclaimed.

She opened the door again.

"Y-yes T-Tadase-kun?"

"Um, I-I like you!" I blurted out. "Would you like to go out with me sometime?" I started blushing like madas soon as I said that.

"Um, well, I kind of like someone else already."

"Oh, ok," I said, really disappointed. "Is it Ikuto-nii san?"

She blushed like mad. "H-How did you know?"

Sarah-What did you think?

Ikuto-I loved it! Tadase got rejected.

Amu-It was ok.

Ikuto-It was wonderful, right my little strawberry?

Amu-*blushes* Sarah does not own Shugo Chara!

Ikuto-*smirks* Please R&R.
