I rushed off the bus so my cheeks could calm down to spare me even further embarrassment. I looked up at the campus, and it was somewhat... creepy. No one else was here but Tadase and me, as far as I'm concerned.
"Wow. It's pretty, isn't it, Amu-chan?" Tadase asked with a sweet smile as he came up beside me.
I blushed and nodded, trying to hold in a very much needed 'squeeeee'. "Y-yeah, it... is," I answered, then noticed Ikuto just walked past me, making no smart ass comment. Something was definitely wrong....
Tadase seemed to notice this too. We exchanged glances before he went off, maybe to find out what was bothering him, since they were friends again. It seemed so strange to not have them fighting, but it was a nice change that came from that day.
I waited behind, until I heard a soft gargling noise. Of course, this is enough to scare me senseless, but I cared enough to turn my head to see what it was. I screamed at the sight of a warthog, hearing they were quite dangerous when angered. Or maybe it was if you ran from them... too late for that, I was already dashing for my life. "Aaaaah!" I yelled, not even looking back to see if it was following me.
"Amu?" asked a voice that I passed up, no doubt Tadase. Despite that, I kept running, shouting my head off. I hate wilderness!! Did a mention it scares me easily?
Nothing would stop me! Nothing!!..... Except a body, of course. I only remember seeing, hitting, and then getting hit. Here's my theory: I run like a maniac, get Tadase to follow me out of worry, I run into Ikuto in my frenzy, Tadase runs into me. And then.... there was the ditch. A ditch in the wilderness! Who knew? By the power invested in gravity, I pronounce us rolling down a hill.
It was a silly thought, but it was happening, and it was painful. The end of the falling was probably the worst part. I end up being sandwiched by my two biggest crushes, Ikuto on the bottom, Tadase on the top. Both, err, knocked out. Now, Tadase wasn't all that heavy, but I wasn't exactly in shape either. So... now what?
What would you do when you were in the middle of your two loves, both unconscious and unable to get off or out from under you? Well, don't ask me, I had no clue...
A more vivid picture of how this played out: I was faced to Ikuto's chest, and Tadase landed with his back on mine, his head semi-resting on my shoulder. Some would call this a wonderland situation, but that's only when you're not shy and stuck in the middle of the woods with hungry beasts watching you. If you ask me, this was a nightmare. A vulnerable, embarrassing, wilderness nightmare.
