Amu's POV.

I was calm now. I was even humming as I changed into my pajamas. My charas noticed my good mood and began to hum themselves. Of course we were all humming different songs and it sounded few off. We all giggled at that. Sometimes it's just nice to spend time with them.

"Hmm? What's that Amu-chan?" I looked where she was pointing. On the ground was my journal.

"That's just my journal," I told them picking it up off the ground, "I could've sworn I put it in my bag."

"I didn't know Amu-chan had a journal," Su told them.

"Is there something bad in there?" Miki asked accusingly.

"Amu-chan's a secret pervert!" Ran just had to throw in.

"What kind of journal do you think this is?!" I yelled at them making them run off laughing, "I got it right before Ran was born," I told them laying it on my desk.

"OH!" I heard them all say together. I turned around to looked at them and they scared me being so close to my face. "Can we read it!" they pleaded together with eager faces.

"Uh...I guess," I tell them looking away from their shining faces. How am I supposed to say no to them when they do this? They ran eagerly to the book and it took all three of them to open the cover, but when it was opened they all sat on the pages and Started reading.

This should give me a few minutes of peace and quiet. I grabbed the gag book Rima had lent me and relaxed on my bed to read it. When I finished the book I looked up to see all three of them half way through the journal and Ran was flipping another page. They were saying "ooh, ahh," *sweat drop*

"Umm, you guys don't have to read the whole thing,"

They all jumped hearing voice.

"It's getting exciting Amu-chan!" Ran told me full of energy.

"You're about to fight Utau, but you're still using Eru and Utau has the upper hand having Dia and Iru!" Miki told me with excitement.

"I wonder what will happen!" Su told me excited too.

"Uh...you know you guys were there right?" I told them. I don't know if they forgot or what, but they were just a little too excited about it.

"Yes, but now we get to see it from Amu-chan's point of view," Miki told me giving me a look.

"What's with that-" I heard my phone ring. I grabbed off the ground by my bed and looked at the caller ID. It was Tadase!

"Speaker! Speaker!" I heard them all say gathered around me.

"Alright! As long as you all stay quiet!" I quickly flipped the phone opened and pressed the speaker button, laying it open in front of me. "Hello?"

"Ah, Hinamori-san!"

"Tadase-kun," I answered surprised of course I say the ID, but still, why was he calling me?

"Oh I was calling to ask you, since it's Saturday tomorrow, if you would like to come shopping with me?"

"Kawii~" I heard the charas say in unison.

"It's just like page 34, Amu-chan's heart it beating so hard it'll come out of her chest!" I heard from Ran

"And she can feel the heat from her blush!" Miki agreed

"Plus getting tongue tied because it's just so unbelievable desu~" Su finished.

"Will you guys knock it off!" I yelled at them making them run away laughing again.

"Were those your charas Amu-chan?" I heard Tadase's voice ask from the voice. I froze, I forgot about the speaker. I quickly cut the speaker off and held the phone to my ear.

"Oh, haha don't mind them" I tried to recover, but that was just so embarrising.

"Well? Do you think you think you can make it?" I thought for a moment and looked at the girls giggling in the corner.

I faked a cough to the side, "Um...actually, I'm not feeling very well,"

"Oh..., is that what was wrong earlier today?"

I coughed again, "I guess, but I should be fine by Monday."

"Well, I hope you get better and I'll see you Monday."

"Thanks, bye." I quickly closed the phone and glared at them in the corner.

"Scary!" they yelled flying away.

"You guys are dead." I told them jumping off the bed running towards them. They scattered flying all over the room as I chased after them. At first I wanted to catch them and shove them in their eggs, but after many of my attempts failed I realized how silly it must look. Then I started laughing while cahsing them and they were laughing with me.

"Got ya!" I finally caught Ran and against my bookshelf. Then one of my books seemed to land on my head and I had to release Ran. "Ow, hey!" I looked up and saw Miki and Ran high five each other, "Hey! No tag team," I said all of us laughing now. I ended up with my back on the floor looking up at the ceiling. Noticing my surrender they all came up to me and sat around my head.

"Amu-chan," I heard them ask in a concerned voice.

"Are you sick desu~?" Su asked feeling my forehead, just like a mother.

"Um, I'm fine Su,"

"Then why'd you tell Tadase-kun you were sick?" Ran asked all their faces confused.

I felt myself blush from embarrassment. "Well..., it's kind of hard to explain," I told them not knowing how else to put it.

"What about what you wrote in the journal?" Miki asked me confused like the rest of them. "You know about how you always felt when you were near Tadase?"

I felt myself frown and focused on the ceiling. They were all sitting on my chest now waiting for an answer. I sighed trying to put my feelings into words.

"Yeah, before, I used to be so nervous around him and get flustered and frustrated for acting stupid. The reason I joined the guardians at first was so I could get closer to him, but now, it's different." They flew off me and I rolled over to my side. Closing my eyes to think.

"How's it different?" I opened my eyes to see Miki in front of my face.

"I don't know. After I got to know him I guess, my feelings weren't any different from when I didn't. Then, how I felt when I was around him was different. I'm the same as I always am now. He doesn't make me nervous or flustered or anything."

"Isn't that a good thing desu~?" Su asked me floating above my head. I rolled back on my back a smiled at her.

"Maybe, but it doesn't feel that way to me," I told her shrugging.

"Why not?!" Miki asked more like a yell for some reason.

"I guess..," I thought about that for a moment, "I guess it's because I kind of liked that feeling. It proved that I really liked him or something."

Ran and Su seemed to be sympathize with me, but Miki was giving a a look with a smirk.

"What?" I asked her and the other two were as confused as I was.

"Nothing." she answered flying up to my desk. I sat up and glared at her.

"Yeah right, what is it?" I asked trying to sound forceful, but she was still giving me a look with an evil grin now.

"Nothing important," she answered shrugging me off, but then looked back at me, "It's just, don't you get nervous and flustered and frustrated when you talk to Ikuto?"

"What?!" I asked her in a voice not as calm as I'd wanted it to be, but that was a surprise for me.

"See, nothing really," she answered mocking me as she went to my desk. I stood up and followed her.

"No not nothing, something, what do you mean the same?!" I asked her trying to get all these questions out at once.

"You said feeling that way proved that you liked Tadase-kun, so what's the difference?"

"Big difference! It's not the same and you know that!"

"No I don't. Just because I'm your chara doesn't mean I know everything that goes through your mind. I only know what you tell me." she answered simply.

"I haven't took you anything," I told her this time, I was the one with the evil grin.

"No?" she asked he evil grin back. She flipped the pages in my journal and stopped at one. "I think you have." I froze. I had forgotten that I write everything I think in that journal. All my private and personal thoughts. I didn't think they'd use it against me though.

"Oh yeah! I forgot about that!" Ran said excited now. Another one has gone to the dark side. Su is now my favorite chara.

"When she wrote about hearing his voilen gave me a warm feeling," Su told them as Ran and her were nodding to each other and Miki was standing their victorious.

"Hey!" I yelled at them feeling my face blush, "Yeah, next time Ami wants to pay with you, see if I stop her!" I threatened them, having no comebacks left in me.

I fell backwards onto my bed. Maybe..., Miki had a point. If I can say all that about Tadase, why should it be a problem for me to say them about Ikuto.

"No." I said plainly, "It's different." I saw all of them looking at me with concern, because my voice was calm. "I don't know how or why, but it is."

"Amu-chan's being stubborn," Miki told me smiling again. I threw a pillow at her, but she dodged it right before it could hit her.

"Can we keep reading Amu-chan?!" Ran asked me eagerly.

"At this point, you guys already know what happens, what's the point of reading it?"

"Because Amu-chan's a good writer desu~" Su answered Ran and Miki agreeing. These girls really knew how to get the better of me.

"Fine, just keep it to yourselves though." I told them remembering the resent phone conversation, "Or else I'm never using speaker again."

They flew over to my journal and started reading again. I don't see why they're so into it. They already know what happens, but then again, it doesn't take much to amuse them. I'll just grab a book and read myself. I laid on my bed on my stomach as I reached under my bed searching for a book I was reading earlier.

"Amu-chan!" I heard Miki yell scaring me.

"What?!" I asked putting me hand to my chest.

"Umm, I just wanted to, umm, know what you were looking for!" Miki said seeming worried about something.

"Are you feeling alright?" I asked confused.

"I'm fine, I just wanted to know."

"Just my book I was reading earlier," I told her reaching my hand back under the bed, this time finding it.

"Oh, alright," Miki said after I relaxed on my bed with my book. She seemed relieved for some reason.

Ikuto's POV.

That was too close for comfort. If she finds me now, she'll kill me for sure. I thought that blue chara of hers was going to rat me out when she saw me when Amu was on the ground. After their conversation, I'm starting to wish I had read the thing. I'll admit, I'm kind of relieved she didn't say yes to that Little Prince, but I didn't get the whole point of it.

"Amu-chan? Are you still awake?" I heard someone call behind the door.

"Uh, not for long."

"Alright, good night Amu-chan,"

"Night...Alright guys put the journal away already!"

"Aww!"

"But I want to know what happens!"

"I'm only going to point this out one more time, YOU WERE THERE!"

"Scary!" I heard them all laugh softly. Sure, she yells at me, but she laughs at them. Everything went dark in an instant.

"Finally nya!" I quickly grabbed Yoru and covered his mouth.

"Huh? You guys say something?"

"Uh, good night Amu-chan!"

I glared at Yoru. He just shrugged and laid on my chest ready to fall asleep. I just laid on my back waiting. It was oddly comfortable under here in this position. Everything in here smelled like strawberries, not important, but interesting. I guess she's fine with being herself when she's at home, or at least when she's alone. Well, when she thinks she is anyway.

I just listened her toss and turn. It was awhile before I could hear her breathing steadily. I wasn't sure if that meant she was asleep or not, but I can't leave until I'm sure. Just after that thought the little blue chara came under the bed nudging at my head. Did she seriously think I would be sleeping? I flicked Yoru on the head to wake him up.

"She's asleep now," her chara whispered, "What were you doing under here?"

"Long story nya~" Yoru whispered a reply. They started whispering to each other about something I wasn't interested in. I slide out as they stayed under talking.

"Yoru!" I whispered getting his attention. He flew to on ahead to the window. I stood up ready to character change with Yoru to stay silent leaving.

"Iku-to?" I froze. I've been discovered. It took her long enough, but this was the situation I was trying to avoid. I turned slowly expecting a glare or a shocked and confused expression. Instead, her eyes were closed and she seemed peaceful.

I bent down to the level of her face. Her breathing was the same. She's still asleep. It's odd seeing her asleep. She's always trying to look cool or glare or turn away, but I've never seen how she would look being herself. Her eyes are shut and her face is just flushed slightly. She seemed at peace with whatever she was dreaming about.

"Ikuto?" I heard here whisper. That made me jump backwards. I waited there for a second to make sure that didn't wake her up. I put my hand on my forehead for relief, but then I pushed my hand to my cheek. It was warm. No way!

"Yoru, character change!" I told him in a command, but still a whisper as I jumped out of her room and off the balcony.

"Finally nya! I thought we'd never leave! Huh? Ikuto what's wrong?" Nothing was wrong really, but it bothered me. I'm not the type that gets nervous around people or blushes or anything like that. So how did she make me blush when she wasn't even conscious.

"Just tired that's all."
