Hee. I love cliffhangers! Don't you? Oh and you probly already know who the person who jumped on her was…I'm a bad writer…but I like to write. Oh well! Lets get the ball rolling shall we?

The special character info thingy:

Ebony Yoshikowa- She's got a crush on Mello. It's pretty obvious. (Laughs). She has an older brother, Ryuu Yoshikowa. Rikku and her met at a restaurant (they were forced to sit together because it was really packed.) My friend Snip. (Ashley) has a rabbit with the same name. I think it's pretty… I kind of made her personality like my fried Kara. (Editor-sama!) She's REALLY carefree. (You'll get all this later.)

Disclaimer: I do not own Near, Mello or Matt. (If I did me and Mello would be eating chocolate while I kick Matt's butt at Naruto Ultimate Ninja 2)

Where we left off:

She slammed the pillow against the wall running to her closet to get her gun. When she opened the door someone flew out at her. He was heavy. In mid air his arm wrapped around her waist. The right arm went straight for her chest where a golden key necklace lay. Her heart raced when they hit the leather sofa and it slammed into the wall.

"Get off!" She screamed.

The capturer held her to tight to move.

"You!" she yelled trying to kick him.

-Chapter Two Figure-

He looked down at Rikku. "C'mon one page?"

"I told you to get off."

"No." He smiled. "I'll give you a chocolate bar!"

"Mail Jeevas, get the hell off me!"

"Oooh, my full name, that's scary…"

"MATT!"

"Okay…okay…" He looked at where his hand was. "Gah!" He moved it away and rolled off the couch.

Rikku grabbed her diary away from him and curled up into a ball.

"I'm sorry. Rikku."

"It's okay."

Matt stood up. "Okay, I'll leave."

The door shut behind him.

"I need some new friends."

Rikku rolled over on the couch and looked up at the Maximum the Hormone poster on her ceiling.

3 hours later

"Hey, Rikku, Ebony is here!" Mello yelled.

Ebony Yoshikowa was the only person outside of the Mafia who knew where Mello's "secret lair" was.

"Thank you Mello-san!" Ebony said bowing.

Mello shrugged and walked away leaving Ebony. She slumped.

"I need a more confident approach!" She said clenching her fist.

Rikku ran up behind Ebony and hugged her. "EBONY-CHAAAAAN!"

"EEEEK!" She squealed.

Rikku let go noticing Ebony's outfit. It was a long black skirt with a red tank top and black fishnet sleeves. Her long brown hair was tied back into a braid. Her bright blue eyes were gleaming.

"Hmm. So you took my advice huh?"

Ebony blushed. "What do you mean?!"

"I told you Mello likes blue eyes. Now all of the sudden you're wearing your hair back?"

Ebony turned a darker shade of red. "Sh-shut up!"

Rikku laughed. "I know."

"Oh, Rikku-Chan, I have four tickets to a bath house do you want to come?"

"HELL YEA!"

"Okay, but what about the other tickets?"

Rikku smiled evilly. "MELLO!"

"R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-Rikku!"

Mello walked in. "what do you want?" He crossed his arms over his chest.

"Do you want to go on a vacation?!"

"No."

"PLEEEEEEEAAAAASEEEE!?"

"No."

"I'll give you chocolate!"

"LETS GO!"

Mello ran to his room to pack his stuff.

"Okay," said Ebony. "What about ticket number four?"

"Matt's coming." Mello said running back.

Matt walked up behind Rikku. She jumped.

"R-Rikku you're coming!?"

"Y-yea y- y- you too?!"

"I'm going to go pack."

"Me too!"

Ebony blinked. "Wow…"

5 hours later.

"What's with you and Matt?" asked Ebony

"What do you mean?"

"You're both really jumpy today."

"IT'S NOTHIG!"

"OKAY!"

Rikku tied her hair up into a bun, undressed, wrapped a towel around her and walked out into the hot spring. She turned her head right then left and took off her towel once she saw no one was around and sat down in the water. It was deep and reached her neck.

"Ah. It's so relaxing!" She smiled.

"Why are you talking to your.."

"EEEEEK!"

Rikku screamed and swam to the other side of the bath. Matt slowly came up out of the water.

"You're too loud…" he said smiling. "And insecure…it's very…"

"Watch it!" Rikku warned.

He laughed and swam next to her.

"What?" she said turning to him ducking under the water.

"Nothing."

After a long silence she looked up at him. "Why don't we talk anymore?" She asked quietly.

"What do you mean?"

"We never talk like this. You're always locked in your room"

"Then come in."

"But you told me and Mello to stay out."

"No I told Mello to stay out. Not you."

"Oh, why did you tell Mello to stay out and not me?" Rikku cocked her head to the side.

"Because Mello will come in and whine about not succeeding L." Matt and Rikku frowned at the last name. "And you are quiet, you don't whine at all. That's what I like about you, you could sit through a five-hour lecture on paper and you'd never make a sound."

Rikku looked up at the sky and smiled. "It's snowing."

"Woo." Matt grunted.

"Shut up!"

Rikku grabbed his hair and dunked him under water.

"Damn it!" he yelled after he came up.

His hair shagged in his eyes, (which were covered by his glasses.) Rikku stared as he stood up. He looked like a Greek god so masculine. A small drop of water landed on her nose like morning dew fell from the grass to the ground. She turned red.

"What?" He said turning to her.

"N-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-nothing!" She smiled.

Matt smirked. "Is this the first time you've seen a guy shirtless?" He grabbed Rikku's shoulders.

"No. R-remember the pool party? Mello took his shirt off."

"We were all seven."

"I was six."

"You're really tense."

Rikku punched Matt in the stomach.

He crouched down hugging his sides. "Damn you, Rikku!"

"I know what you were trying to do!" She yelled blushing. "You were trying to take advantage of me because I'm naked!"

"Gee you found out!"

She punched him in the face that time.

"Bastard."

"I was being sarcastic, damn it!"

"Sure."

She swam to the side of the bath that had her towel sitting on a rock.

"Turn around, Matt."

He put his head under the water.

"No peeking!"

He stuck his thumb out.

She got out of the water and quickly wrapped the towel around herself.

"Okay, you can come up now!"

Matt jumped out onto the grass. Rikku covered her eyed before noticing the black swimming trunks. He looked up and saw the towel showed off her figure.

'When did she grow up?! Wait… does that make me a pervert for thinking that?!' His face turned red. "F-forgive me Rikku! I didn't mean to think that!"

Rikku gave him a weird look. "Uh…Matt did you take your pills today?"

"Shut up, woman!"

Rikku walked back to hers and Ebony's room.

Ebony and Mello sat in the large middle room at the coffee table playing go fish.

"Did you hear that?" Asked Ebony looking up from her cards.

"Hmmm?" Said Mello.

"It sounded like a scream." Ebony's eyes widened. "Where's Matt-Kun?!"

"He went out to the…hot…spring…"

"…"

"…"

"Lets not go out there!" Ebony said waving her hand.

"I agree. Got any sevens?"

"Go fish!"

-To be continued-

Okay, I have decided. I am going to try and make this story funny as I can! Oh! I turned one year away from 16 on May 6th!! Whoop! I got a DvD player with surround sound. And a new c.d. case. (Good thing too because I just got the Simple Plan c.d.)

Happy mothers Day to all my friends who are Mommies!

I GOT MY FIRST REVEIW!! WHOOOO! Thank you sooo much! Hee I know my grammar is really bad. But I'm glad you like the story!

The special character info thingy:

You know her, you love her, Miss Chizuru- She's not very bright… But she's funny. She's probly going to appear in the one of the next few chapters. I can relate to her a lot. I don't think I described her. She has short black hair dark eyes and she usually wears bright colors. She cared a lot about Watari. (Not in the lovey- dovey way…)
