Hey everyone. Thanks for the few reviews that I've gotten. (: Anyways, I was thinking about changing the title to this story. It doesn't feel entirely right. So please review and tell me any ideas you may have or if I should change the title. (: Anyways, this is the Chapter where Tadase comes in. Also, one more thing: Ikuto's age in the first two chapters was supposed to be 9 and Utau's 8. I don't know what happened, but I'm going to try to fix that. Enjoy!

Names and Ages:

Hinamori Amu: Age 6

Tsukimiyomi Ikuto: Age 9

Hoshina Utau: Age 8

Hotohori Tadase: Age 7

Amu woke up that morning sleepy. She noticed that she was in her pajamas, the pink ones with little bears on them. Disoriented, she got up and walked out of her room, but forgot which way she came from yesterday. She decided to go to her right and go down the hall.

She turned and went to take a step when she bumped into Ikuto. "Gomenasai," she said softly, wiping her sleepy eyes. He looked down at her and said, "It's okay. Are you hungry?" he asked. She nodded and he guided her to the left hallway and down to the kitchen. She saw Ikuto-kun s mom at the stove. "Ohaiyou Mrs. Tsukimiyomi." Amu said.

Ikuto's mom turned around and smiled. "Ohaiyou Amu-chan. Also, just call me Hitomi." Hitomi said. Amu just nodded and asked, "Who put me in my pajamas? How come I'm not at school? What's for breakfast?" Hitomi was bewildered with the different questions being thrown at her and she replied, "You aren't at school because you are going to take today off. I put you in your pajamas, and I'm making crepes for breakfast."

Amu just nodded again. At first she was nervous, but then she felt a wave of calm seep over her as she sat down waiting for breakfast. A few minutes later, Hitomi laid a plate with a crepe, already cut into small pieces with powdered sugar, in front of Amu. She grabbed her fork and ate in silence. Hitomi watched her as she ate, trying to be inconspicuous.

Amu finished eating a few minutes later and said, "I'm done," and got up from the table. She was about to walk back to her room for a nap when Hitomi said, "Do you need anything else?" Amu replied, "I just want to take a nap."Hitomi smiled and said, "Ok. Do you remember which way to go down the hall?" Amu shook her head no. "Ikuto, go with her and show her the way back." Hitomi said. "Okay mama." he said.

He led her down to hall to her room. Amu turned to him and said, "Arigatou Ikuto-kun." She went into her room and lay down under the covers, pulling them over her head as she began to weep over her mother

Ikuto walked back to the kitchen to finish his breakfast. When his mother saw him she said, "Ikuto-kun, how is she?"

He thought about that, and then said, "She is really sad." His mother nodded and lastly said, "When she wakes up, take her outside to play. I have to go to work for a few hours now, but I'll be back later." With that, she kissed the top of his head and grabbed her purse, along with her keys, and walked out the door.

It was an hour later before Amu woke up. When she did, she got out of bed and dressed in a pink t-shirt, with pink shorts. She walked out the door and saw Ikuto standing beside it. "What's up Pinky?" he asked with a smirk. That was better for him then saying "Amu-chan." This way it was like he was mocking her more than calling her something "cute."

She smiled and said, "Nothing." He looked away from her and said, "Let's go play outside. I'm bored." She nodded and followed him out the front door and into the front yard where she ran to the tire swing.

Before she reached it, however, she saw a pretty boy with the prettiest blonde hair she had ever seen. He looked over at her and gave her a smile. She smiled back and said, "Hi, my name is Hinamori Amu, but you can call me Amu. What's yours?"

He looked up at her with bright blue eyes and smiled a pretty smile. Then he replied, "I'm Hotohori Tadase. Nice to meet you Amu-chan." She smiled her adorable smile and said, "Do you want to play with me today?" He frowned and said, "I can't today. I just moved in and I need to unpack. Maybe tomorrow!"

With that he kissed her on the cheek and walked into his house. She was blushing slightly when she started walking back to the tire swing. She looked up at Ikuto and smiled saying, "Can you push me on the tire swing Ikuto-kun?" He was about to ignore her, but when he looked down at her face, he said, "Fine. Get on."

He walked over and helped her into the tire. Then he started to push her, not too high, but not too low. She laughed and squealed with joy. They were still playing outside when Ikuto's mom pulled up. She put the car in park and got out with a smile."Ikuto! Amu! Come in and wash your hands. I bought Taiyaki for dinner." Hitomi said. Ikuto and Amu raced to the front door, but of course he let her win. She was a little girl so he had to. They had an enjoyable time at dinner, and Amu told Hitomi about the new boy next door whose name is Hotohori Tadase.

After dinner, Amu took a bath and washed up. She dressed in some pajamas and lay down under the covers holding onto her teddy bear. She cried for a short while, but then thought of Ikuto and the new boy. Tonight, in the end, she fell asleep with a smile on her face. Her last thought was I hope I can play with Tadase-kun tomorrow.

Hope you liked it. Sorry if it was shorter than my first two chapters. I was tired so yea… I am a huge Amuto fan, but I also love Ikuto-kun. 3 Ttyl next chapter! Review please! 3 (:
