Wait, what is going on here? Where am I-?

I was cut off by Tadase grabbing my shoulder, sitting up now. "Amu, are you okay?"

He looked into my concerned eyes, then got up. I'll go get you some water, you stay right here." He walked out of the room to get some water.

What's happening? I wished to be with both of them, but I fell asleep- wait a minute, this is all part of my wish, now today im going to be in Tadase's bedroom…. Then Tomarrow what will happen? Kukai's? no, I only was having a tough time with these two, plus I'm not interested in kukai, he's cute and all, but he's like my brother… wait, if I'm here now, what happened to Ikuto? How is his life?

Tadase ran into the room with a cup of water and handed it to me, slipping back into bed beside me. "What happened, did you have a bad nightmare?" Tadase concerned asked, and watched my every move.

I laughed lightly. " I'm fine! Really!" wow… Tadase looks….

I noticed how Tadase looked like himself, but with a more, concentrated face, that was straight and had a figured jaw. He had broad shoulders, and his eyes were red… and he didn't have a shirt on..

I blushed.

He felt my head. "Are you sure your not sick, Amu?" he got up, putting on a shirt.

Darn it.

"You get some more rest, I'll go to the store and buy you some medicine." He almost walked out the door when I grabbed his head, making him turn to look at me, and hear what I wanted to say. "I'm not sick! Really!" I said quite frantic. I jumped out of bed, and now used to my bigger body, stood tall and did a jumping jack. "See, I'm fine!" I laughed. He put on a happy face of acknoledgement. " Well I'llk go get the medicine anyway, in case you are getting sick." He walked out the room door and son after the house's entry doorway.

I was alone.

Wow, maybe I should look around, and look for evidence of our past, in case he asks.

I shoveled through desks and paperwork, finding nothing other than Tadase's work sheets. You'd laugh if you'd seen the tightened up, unrealisticlly shocked facial expression I made when I found out that he worked for easter.

'who would have thought…'

I searched around for photo albums and such, but everything was way too organized in this house, either that or it was tucked away in a place I hadn't noticed.

Did he or I record memories in this life? I don't know.

I finally found a computer Under Tadase's work sheets, that were piled neatly, but covered every inch of his desk, and the computer.

I wondered what to look up. I looked on his files and found pictures of our wedding day. It was in a field or something, tohugh I didn't know where the place was.

I was looking at the bright screen and my eyes started to bug out.

Walking around now, I opened the curtain to reveal nothing but sky.

"Wha-?" I mumbled, then I looked downwards.

Where are we? I fell back noticing that we were in a very tall apartment building. I guess it was some rich fancy one because it was pretty big, with two floors. Tadase must be rich, but working for easter makes it no surprise.

I wonder if Hikaru is still in charge?

Lookinmg back on the computer, it was a lot easier to watch. Not as bright as it used to be to me, I clicked a bunched folder on desktop that was labelled, 'Dates' I was figuring I was going to be finding more easter filesd, though I found a whole folder of Tadase and I! Cool!

I sorted through pictures of us with out frinds, and with them too, and some at the pizza parlor, and some around. I looked at another folder to reveal some pictures of Tadase and Me, and Ikuto?

Looks like we all just became friends after we all got together again.

But Ikuto looks…. Sad.

For ponce in my life I could see how to tell his emotions apart, and besides all the other times I've seen him, yesterday he looked happy, and In this photo you could see pain in his eyes. Huh. Wonder what happened.

All of a sudden I heard the door shut. Tadase was home, im sure.

I clicked the 'x' emote on all of his document pages and turned the moniter off.

I walked out to see him. "Hi Tadase! Was the store fun?" I asked, finding myself hungry and grabbing a banana off the counter, or island.

"It was fine, but I told you to relax." He warmly reminded.

"I'm sorry, I was kind of excited today." I added, peeling the banaa, and taking a bite at the end of my sentence.

"Well, that's okay, but why was your nightmare? This morning?"

I turned to him, kind of confuzed. I remebered all of a sudden.

"I wanted to know what was happening with our friends lateely, and I had a bad dream about them." I said uneasily. I don't want to lie, though I don't know how to information without a storm of questions hailing on me after.

"Oh." He said simply. " I thought you kept more on track with your friends, but Rima is one of competing fashion designers of japan, while Yaya has a job as a kindergarten teacher. Kairi has lately been working with me at easter, like I said to you yesterday, and Nagihiko is an actor in studying currently." He noted.

I sighed. I don't remember yesterday, Tadase, because I was with Ikuto..

Sighing, and taking the last bit of my ripe banana, and now throwing the peel out, added, "What about Ikuto?" too casual Amu.

He shot me a polite but questioning look. " Umm, why Ikuto?" I blushed madly. Chill out Amu, you look like you like him still or something!"

Tadase tilted his head sideways a bit. " I'm not sure! I just want to know how everybodies doing!" I blurted out. He nodded, still uncertain. "Ikuto is doing fine, actualy, if you want, we could go see him when I stop by work today." I felt my heart jump uncertainly. Wait, but I saw him yesterday too, wouldn't that be like spending more time with Ikuto? Though this is a different dimension of a sort.

I nodded, calming down. "It's not I wanted to see him or anything, I just want to know how everybodie's doing now a days. I haven't talked to Ikuto for a while."

Great save Amu.

His smile got bigger again, as if he new I wasn't re-thinking the path I had chosen.

"We can go see him anyway, he has been down ever since you drifted out of his life two years ago." He added.

What?

"Tadase, what happened then? Did he go into depression or something?"

Tadase looked at me, like he loved the story. Tadase must like avents that involve our life more.

" Ikuto is the head of easter, and I proposed to you, and soon after he disconnected from us, and didn't really talk to us anymore so we could be together." He added. "He's been a loner again since, so it will probably nice for him to talk to you."

I looked in one spot, my mind swirling. He never moved on. I felt horrbile. Maybe just because I made him feel that same pain he felt when I was 12.

I shrugged it off, shaking my head. "I'll go get ready then." I added, looking for my closet in our bedroom. I found a little closet with all Tadase's clothes. I sweat dropped.

Do I have clothes in this dimension? I think I made my decision, I don't want to be naked.

I got out of my sarcastic thoughts when Tadase spoke to me. " Honestly, I still think you have a cold or something, did you forget where your closet was?"

Nevermind.

Tadase led me to a different room. I thought this was only a second bathroom with nothing but a sink and table, and shower.

He opened the doors inside that led into a walk in closet, and then there was paradise.

'I' have a walk in closet with dresses and ttank tops and shoes and belts and socks, and pants and skirts and everything!

I completely gaped. "Are you sure your sure you want to go to easter?" he asked lightly, watching me.

I nodded. "Yeah, I just forgot how much clothes I have!"

Wow that was weird to say….

~ 3:02pm

When I finished trying all my favorite outfits on, in the end I had a casual outfit that consisted of plaid, like my regular style.

When we wnet outside, there was a limo outside. I guess this was our ride.

~ 3:34pm

At the company, I walked in to see dull wall coloring, and a lot of window panes. It was pretty dull, something you would imagine, with some sectioned off tiny rooms for private spaces.

I awed at all the people working like they were robots. I don't have enough of an attention span for a job this way, glad Tadase's making the money. Wait, do I have a job?

Tadase walked up behind me, and cared me by pointing in front of my face.

He was pointing to Ikuto. "I'll leave you to talk to him, I'll be over in room 378 if you need me."

I walked awkwardly up to Ikuto's desk. He still looked fine but he had light bags under his eyes, which were dul as well.

I fiunally got my voice to stop clogging my throat, and I opened my mouth to talk.

" Hi Ikuto." I simply said, in a happy manner, but also mysterious.

He looked up land his eyes dulled more. How is it possible? I smiled at him. " I haven't talked to you in a long time!" I mentione, hoping a kind reply. He smiled lightly. " You should be with your husband, not here." He said. His voice was a little sore, and he was very quiet.

I felt an annoyed face crawl to my head.

" I can talk to you, can I not?" I strictly asked.

He smiled wider. "You can always talk to me, Amu." He announced quietly, now looking back at his work. I felt my face de-expression. "So how have you been lately?" I asked, pulling up a chair. "Fine, he replied, without much expression. This was getting annoying. "Just because I havent talked to you for a while doesn't mean you have to be cold." I quietly said. He smiled again. " I'm only working, but if you must face me, here." He tuned his chair around and watched my eyes. I felt like blush was creeping up on my face in a way. He was way too close for comfort. "so what have you been up to lately?" I asked. Almost stuttering. "The usual, work in the day, sleep at night." He said, rolling his eyes. "Don't you have a girlfriend?" I asked. Your pushing it, Amu stop.

He frowned a little, then smirked. " I have that spot in my life reserved, because I made a promise." He said so casual, like I wasn't being rude just now.

Did he really keep that promise he made me?

He smiled, pain showing again. "Tadase didn't have much work to do today, you should go." He smiled happily.

I walked down the hall to room 378, like Tadase said. It bugged me, I felt guilty. I wanted to spend my day with Tadase though I felt so bad for Ikuto. No matter that I think, I know that Ikuto would be happy when he was with me, though I know for a fact life still carries on here too, and in this life he was lonely.

I walked in the room to see a smiling Tadase. "Ready to go, Amu?" I blushed.

I like the way you say my name Tadase.

"Let's go Amu and get ready for tonight." He walked past me, still smiling. "W-why, what's tonight?" I asked. He smiled. It's our date night! Are you sure your not sick, If you forgot that we have these every weekend!" He teased nicely, but he also seemed concerned.

I shook my head. "N-no, dates sound good!" I smiled. He walked to me with an angel of a smile seeping on his face, like an angel feather.

"Then let's go." He kissed my cheek, which I was totally not expecting, but It gave my heart absolute warmth, and a fluffy, soft feeling, that I never wanted to leave me.

So this is what people feel like when when they say they are on cloud nine..

~ 6:27pm

We sat at the dinner table in our apartment, and talked together, and laughed a lot with one another on our subject.

I was holding on of the meatball's of our spaghetti dinner on my fork, then I looked up when it was almost to my mouth, and noticed Tadase staring at me.

"What? What is it?" I asked, wiping my face ith a napkin, since for me, it was suual to have food all over my face, and eat like a little girl.

He chuckled in his throat. "Nothing, you are just so beautiful." I felt hapiness in his words.

As we finished up for dinner, he led me into my room and gave me privacy to get changed, then came in to head to bed.

He kissed me goodnight, and then turned off the lights.

I remember this part. I closed my eyes, wanting to drift off to dream land, and it seemed like a nice thought. Tadase Is so nice to me. Now I honestly can't decide between the two of them because They are both so loving in the future same as when I was younger also. Though Tadse is so handsome, as is Ikuto, thoug Tadase looks like he actually grew up. Wow, I don't have that much perception.

~9:04am

I closed my sleepy eyes and soon later found them awake in Ikuto's bed again. I sighed. How many times will this have to happen before I decide?

I smiled to myself as I just sat in contempt. I could get used to this all in time.

Sorry people if I didn't have a much of a high detailed romance as the amuto chapter, I am used to writing amuto fan stories, so this chapter was kind of hard for me! I will get better at it though! It's all in the experience!
