Well, I lied. Thanks to all of my reviewers (and my friend's constant nagging) I've decided to continue this story even though it's still going to be really I said before, this story makes very little sense and the characters are barely recognizable. It's totally AU, too. Hope you enjoy! AmuxIkuto pairing

Disclaimer: I forgot to do this last time so anyway, I do not own Shugo Chara, Amu, Ikuto, or any other characters that appear in this story. I only own the plot


Bat Behind The Headboard

The next morning, Amu woke up to the shining sun, a nice warm bed, and the leather-clad cat-man her cat had turned into.

She wasn't exactly expecting the last one.

Her eyes widened at the man-cat who was currently snuggling against her affectionately. His purring freaked her out a little, too, but it was mostly the cuddling thing.

Still, even with her shock, Amu couldn't help but notice how adorable he looked right then. Maybe it was her half-awake, almost drunken state or maybe it was the way the sunlight hit his face or maybe it was just because he resembled a cat. Whatever the reason, Amu found herself unable to look away from him.

CRASH!

Well, at least until she heard a crash downstairs. Someone had totally just broken into her house! Overreacting yet again, Amu launched out of bed and grabbed the bat from behind the headboard. Why she kept a bat behind her bed is really anyone's guess.

The sudden noise caused a certain cat-eared man to wake as well. Opening his lovely purple-blue eyes, Ikuto stretched in a very cat-like way. He then sat cross-legged on his mistress's bed and proceeded to scratch his cat ears…

…With his foot.

As Ikuto woke up, Amu looked at him with a very odd look on her face. Well, she thought, he is a cat.

Finally noticing her gaze, Ikuto stopped licking his hand (and "cleaning" his face) and turned his attention to Amu, who was even more disturbed than she was before (and strangely turned on). Ikuto meowed and wagged his tail.

"Aren't you a cat?" Amu asked mostly herself.

Ikuto just meowed again. The cute, innocent smile on his face was very distracting.

CRASH!

But all good things must come to an end as Amu remembered why she was holding a bat in the first place.

Turning her attention to the noise, Amu ran downstairs to wound the lousy thief who decided to break into her house!

Noticing that he was no longer the center of attention, Ikuto decided to follow his mistress and ran down the stairs as well.
