Hay hay hay! Thank you so much for the people who reviewed! It really does help a person write a story. So, with out further ado, here is the first chapter!
I am going to try to make my chapters longer but, no guarantees.
I do NOT own Shugo Chara or the songs in this chapter. Peach-pit owns Shugo Chara and the companies of the songs own them.

!Chapter 1!
(Amu's P.O.V)
"All the right friends in all the right places, yeah we're going down, I said all the right moves in all the right places, yeah we're g-" *smash~* I let out a groan. Great, there goes another alarm clock, third one this week. Rima is going to kill me.
I opened my right eye, and looked around. I was in my messy little room, with my stuff scattered on the floor. The light in the window streamed through the blinds and hit me in the face.
I groggily sat up and rubbed the sleepiness out of my eyes. I stood up only to fall down. Stupid stilettos, I knew I should have moved them out of the way before I went to bed. I let out a shriek of frustration; why did I have to work tonight? I never work Saturday nights.
Stumbling to the bath room, barley making it, I kicked open the door and started my daily route.
*Hour later*
I let out a monster yawn as I treaded out to the kitchen. There was Rima, sitting at our small table, reading the newspaper with a pop tart sticking out of her mouth. "Morning~" She looked up at me and gave me her glare. "You where suppose to be up by seven to cook this morning; it's your turn you know, and its eight thirty."
I giggled and rolled my eyes. Rima will always be the cold hearted self centered type on the outside. I walked to the fringe, pulling out beacon, eggs, milk and butter. I swiftly open the cupboard, pulling out a frying pan and started the stove.
I hummed a little tune as a started frying the beacon and mixing the eggs. "Well, I guess it's ok, I mean, your cooking skills make up for you being late." Rima said, seating herself at the kitchen counter.
I just smiled. "Well, I'm glad." She snorted and I seen her smile afterwards.
(Time skip after breakfast)
"That was so good, thank you Amu." My eyes widened as a gasped, looking at Rima. I then quickly scooped the blonde midget into a great bear hug. "Omg, you, like, NEVER compliment someone! Once in a very great while! Thank you thank you thank you! You've made my day!" She giggled as a twirled her around.
"Listen, Amu, I'm your best friend in the whole wide world…or so I hope, but, even though I could off cold, I'm really warm hearted." She smiled at me. I smiled to. "Now, get your ass in gear, get dressed properly, we have to go shopping with the monster blond." Rima said, throwing a gag magazine at me head, hitting me in the face.
I grumbled, not about the gag, but the fact that I was going to have to go shopping with the "monster blond." I imaged she would take Yaya too. I looked at the clock on the wall and mentally cursed myself.
Yaya had just gotten off her day job shift, as a part time candy sales woman. Knowing her, she couldn't eat any of the candy, or she'd be fired, so, she was going to be hyper active, so much that she could fuel a jet plane and make it fly.
"Hurry up!" I decided to get ready when Rima missed my head by in inch with a lamp. I scurried off to my room. I quickly picked out a pair of baggy jeans, with a stripped jacket, purple shirt and black and purple stripped cut off gloves. (A/N That's what I'm wearing, if you need or want a picture, I'll have it on my deviant art account on my profile.)
"Hay, Amu~" I turned to the door, clothes in hand and yell "What!" There was a pause as a heard a shirt in the room next to mine. "Don't forget we have work tonight, so, just put you "work" clothes under your mall ones." I nodded, forgetting she couldn't see. "Okay, thanks!"
I moved over to my closet, skimming through my regular clothes. I pushed them aside, revealing a tiny siding door. I pushed it open, to meet Rima again. Yes, we can a little, tiny, connected closet to both of are rooms for our night job.
"Here." I felt clothes connect with my face and fall into my hands. "Put these on and hurry up, we have to meet them in half an hour and you know how traffic is, in a cab, on a Saturday, headed to the mall." I nodded, rushing back to me room before more clothes hit me in the face.
I shredded my old clothes off, throwing them on the floor with the rest of my clothes. I found my good bra and panties, putting them on too. After finishing my over look, I stridded out of the room, dragging Rima alone with me.
"Let's go then, and get this over with." I said, trying not to stress my words. Well, she seen through it, I guess my acting didn't work when I was in one of my moods. "Someone's on there period or bipolar…" Rima whispered, looking to the side.
I growled and pulled her to the curb outside our place. I whistled loudly, hailing a near by taxi. "Get in, and let's get this over with! This is going to be total torcher…" I mumbled as we rode out to the nearest mall… Rima was right, by the time we got there, we where ten minutes late. Utau looked pissed, I swear, I seen steam rolling off her. "WH-" I stuck my hand in front of her face. "Yeah, yeah, we know where late, there was a hot guy you missed because of us, and we have to go a shoe sale, we know, so, let's just go." Rima said, looking at her nails.
I snickered, earning a glare from Utau the quickly turned into an evil grin. "Hotties at ten o' clock." She whispered, twirling us around to look at the guys entering the mall cafeteria.
There was a short one with green hair, weird right? There was a slightly taller one, he had purple hair, but it was sticking out of a white cap. There was another guy, also slightly taller then the other two, with wild orange brown hair. Then there was the tallest one, he had….wait, am I seeing this right? Midnight blue hair? Ha-ha, and my hair is weird.
I nudged Utau, "Hay, Utau, isn't that the strangest hair you've ever seen?" I looked over to see she had hearts in her eyes, staring at the red-head. "It's not that bad…" I sighed, I pinched her arm, and grabbed her mouth before she could yell at me.
"No, you love-at-first-sight dimwit. That freak with the blue hair." Utau then did something I had never seen happen. She stiffened, looked at that weird dude and dragged us all to the nearest store.
"Utau! Yaya was checking out the candy store near there! And the boy with green hair was cute too!" Yaya wined, clinging the Rime's arm. Me and Rima exchanged confused looks. "Um, I thought I seen a sale! It was major, but some people got in my way and blocked the view, guess we can go now."
We nodded causally, not believing a word she said. The rest of the time, Utau seemed distance, looking from side to side and occasionally taking her phone out, texting who knows, while almost getting ran over by a group of shoppers.
After being there for not even a hour, Utau pulls us out of the mall and hails a cab. Now I was really confused, what was with her? We would usually spend all night at the mall. We all looked at Utau liked she had grown a third eye.
"Uh, I was getting crowded, so, I thought we could go to one of those Karaoke bars, I need to work on my singing." She looked away, clearly lie'n. We nodded going alone with it. I looked at Rima, and she looked at me.
I nodded, understanding. I mean, we'll find out, and soon. I smirked to myself as I came up with a plan. She was so going to tell us before the night ended. I think she felt the vibe coming off me, because she shivered. Good, better watch out Utau, we are going to get you and squish you like a lemon. :D
