A/N: Hey guys. :3 Does anybody else think Shugo Chara is just going downhill? I mean, seriously, no one seems to like Shugo Chara Party. I'm not too fond of it, myself. That girl Rikka is just... DXX Anyways.. On with the Rimahiko sweetness! =D

Rima had felt horrible the past few days. Yelling at Nagihiko like that was just... Damn.. She felt so guilty.

"I hate this feeling! Guiltiness!" Rima hissed, burying her face into the pillow on her bed.

KusuKusu was balancing herself on a small bouncy ball to entertain herself. "Sorry Rima! I'm sure Nagi feels just as bad."

"But why should I feel bad for him?!" Rima demanded to know. "I don't like him!"

"It doesn't matter," KusuKusu spoke, juggling some small bowling pins. "Guilt is guilt!"

Rima facepalmed. "I don't even know how I've managed to avoid him.. At least the real Nagihiko will be back tomorrow.." She didn't really have to with him hanging around with Amu all the time.

KusuKusu laughed cheerfully. "Yep!"

The next day at school, Rima waited for Nagihiko by the gate like it was nothing, only to find Nagihiko walking right past her like she was invisible.

"Hey!" Rima said, catching up to him.

"Yes, Rima-chan?" Nagihiko said, looking at her as he walked.

"I was waiting for you back there," She said, narrowing her eyes at him.

"Why would you wait for me? The stupid cross-dresser? You hate me, don't you?" Nagihiko said, staring straight foward now.

Rima froze as her words came back to her. Ah, that's right. Words were more powerful than actions.

"Listen, Nagihiko. I didn't mean to say that. I was just upset with you, okay?" Rima crossed her arms, acting like it was obvious.

Nagihiko sighed deeply, as though he was in deep thought. "Hmm.. I don't know, Rima-chan. If you really mean that."

Rima clenched her tiny fists. "What do you mean you don't know if I don't mean it?! Of course I mean it! Why the hell would I say it if I didn't mean it?" She asked irritably.

"It's just as easy to lie than tell the truth," Nagihiko blinked.

"You're just trying to make me mad, aren't you?" Rima said, glaring at him.

"I never said that," Nagihiko frowned.

"You didn't have to," Rima mirrored his frown.

The two stared at each other for quite some time.

"Why are you two staring at each other?" A fimilar voice asked.

This snapped Nagihiko and Rima right out of their staring game.

"N-No reason," Rima said, closing her eyes for a brief moment.

"We're going to be late," Amu reminded them, going into the classroom.

"I wish Nadeshiko hadn't had to leave so soon," She said, memories overflowing in her head.

"Y-Yeah well," Nagihiko scratched the back of his head nervously.

Rima took her seat. She had heard enough about Nadeshiko.

"You like her, don't you, Rima?" Amu asked her, smiling.

"Who?"

"Nadeshiko."

"Oh. Uhm.. She seems like a nice person judging from now and the last time I met her," Rima said, wondering why she hadn't told Amu herself.

"I'm glad," Amu said softly, closing her eyes to remember all the good times. "You two have a lot in common."

Rima was taken aback by her friend's sudden words. "W-What did you say?"

"You two are somewhat similar," Amu explained.

"How?" Rima asked in a stern voice.

"Well..." Amu began. "You two were both great Queens. Both of you are also kind-hearted.."

Rima let her continue.

Nagihiko was listening quietly.

"You guys are like my two best friends in the whole world. If I hadn't came along, I bet you two would've been best friends," Amu's face lit up as she said this.

Rima and Nagihiko looked at each other for a moment and smiled.

As soon as the bell rang, the former Queen and Jack rushed out of the room and into the halls to go to their next class.

"Hey, Nagihiko."

They both stopped in the halls.

"Hmm?"

"I'm really sorry," Rima apologized, keeping eye-contact.

"For what?" Nagihiko himself knew, but he wanted to know if she did.

"For acting so jealous. And screaming at you," Rima sighed. It was hard to admit what she had done was wrong, but it felt good to finally get it out of her mind.

"Then I suppose I should apologize, too," Nagihiko said, smiling innocently.

"For?"

"Giving you the cold shoulder this morning."

"Oh yeah. Girls usually only do that..."

Nagihiko laughed nervously again. "A-Anyways.. You don't really hate me, do you?" It had been bugging him since she had said it, and now was a better time to ask than any.

"Of course not. What a stupid question," Rima rolled her eyes.

Nagihiko let out a sigh of relief. "Okay."

Rima extended her hand to him to show that there were no hard feelings.

Nagihiko smiled at her and took her hand, before squeezing it and pulling her into an embrace.

Rima stiffened, not letting herself move.

After a moment or two, Nagihiko started to wonder why she hadn't resisted.

"Get off of me, you freak!" Rima said, pushing him away.

Nagihiko laughed at her. "Sorry, Rima-chan."

After dusting herself off thoroughly, they headed back to class.
