Amu's POV

I ran down the stairs, and I almost tripped on a step but Rima caught me. She told me to go a little slower and that the teacher won't call anyone so he doesn't hav to do "more paperwork".

We decided to go to the roof, and it felt nice up there. It was sunny, and a few clouds were in sight. The breeze soothed my flushed face.

"That bastard." Rima muttered, and Ana nodded.

"Why did you slap him again? I wasn't paying attention." Tadase asked.

"Because he brought up you-know-who." Rima whispered to him. I rolled my eyes.

"You probably weren't paying attention 'cause you were staring at Ana." I snickered.

He twitched, and denied it. Ana just stared with a confused expression.

I leaned against the door that leads down to the classrooms.

Knock, Knock, Knock

"Shit!" I said, and I told Rima, "Answer it! I'll go hide. Lie, and say that the nurse let you up here!" and I ran behind a potted tree.

Rima opened the door, and said, "Hey.."

Stupid, don't do that!

Rima's POV

"A-Aruto-kun." I stammered, which was weird. I never stuttered..

"Mashiro-san." he nodded. "Is Amu here?" I shook my head, no.

"Amu, don't climb down there!" I heard Tadase say. Damn, can't he just shut his mouth?

"You're lying." he said, and attempted to push the door more open, but thankfully, Ana was there. She was pretty strong, and she told me to "push with all your might!".

I pushed, and she pushed, but he wouldn't give up.

She decided to do something "lethal", as in her terms. She whispered, "Be prepared to close the door really fast!"

She opened it a little more, and punched Aruto, in the gut. He stumbled backwards, and we closed the door, locked it, and placed that huge potted tree and some rocks we found.

He kept pounding on the door, but the lock and the tree did their job.

Ana pet the bricks and whispered to the tree, "Good job!"

She was always so weird.. But that's why we love her, I guess.

I turned to Tadase. "Couldn't you be a little bit more quiet?!"

Aruto's POV

Ana punched me, and I fell backwards. Then they locked the door, and I pounded and pounded against the door, but it wouldn't budge.

"Dammit!" I cursed.

Wait, I heard them say that Amu was climbing down or something..

Aha! I can go outside and climb up that staff ladder!

Amu's POV

After Rima said, "Hey.." to Aruto at the door, I decided that Rima would be too weak to actually protect the door. I spotted a ladder, and decided to climb dopwn, and yell to Rima and Ana that it was okay to open the door.

"Amu-chan, don't do that!" Tadase whispered loudly, but I shot him a glare and he stayed quiet. He pleaded with his eyes, but I just glared at him.

"You're lying." I heard a familiar voice say. I heard Ana punch someone, and I heard the door slam, and a pot move against the cement.

"Couldn't you be a little bit more quiet?!" I heard Rima say, probably to Tadase. "What the hell are you doing there, Amu?" She probably noticed that I was on the ladder, and if I slipped, then I could crash and fall to my death..

Whoa, too dramatic.

I heard someone yell, "Amu!" from below, and I turned my heard automatically, and regretted it. My foot slipped, and I swear, I jinxed myself!

I was falling, and I could see the cement come closer, and closer to my body. "Oh God, I'm gonna die!" I cried, but I forgot I saw a flash of blue underneath me.

All of a sudden, I landed on something really soft, and smelled a little like chocolate. My god, it was the exact same smell of Ikuto's

But when I opened my eyes, I saw green. Green eyes. Damn it!

I rolled off of him, and landed with an "oof!" onto the grass. I could tell that bastard was smirking, oh I know it!

I stood up, and wiped the dirt off my body.

"Ahem." I looked at Aruto, and glared at him.

"What do you want, you bastard?" I asked, shooting a glare at him. I thought I saw him wince.

"Is that how you treat someone after bracing their impact of falling to their death?" Aruto smirked, his eyebrow raised.

"No, but it's how I treat a stupid playboy who shouldn't have bothered me!" I said, and I shouted, "Rima, Ana, Tadase, I'm good! You know, I feel like going home now!"

"Ooh, whatcha say..? Has your lollie been well? Well of course she is, ooh whatcha say...--"

"What the flip, Ana?" I said to Ana on the phone.

"Well, I don't want you yelling what you're going to do when that stalking cat is right behind you." she told me, innocently.

I turned around quickly, and I saw Aruto trying to listen to my conversation.

Since I took a class in Tagalog(a philippino language), I knew Aruto wouldn't know about what I was saying. Also, Ana knew that language too!

"Ana, punta na ako sa bahay ko, okay?" I said, hoping she would understand. "Ung pusa dito, gusto ko mag patay!" (Translation: "Ana, I'm going to my house, okay?" "I want to kill this cat over here!" LOL, my mom told me that's how it's said..)

"Oh. Okay." was all she said.

I hung up, and I shouted to Rima to throw down my backpack. She dropped it, and I caught it easily. I put it on, and started walking in the direction of my home, tired of everything that happened today.

I felt someone grab my wrist, and I sighed, and tried to yank it away.

"Hinakoto-san," I said slowly. "LET GO."

"Nope." he said, popping the "p" at the end.

I twitched. "Don't try me, Hinakoto--"

"Aruto. It's Aruto, okay Amu?" he said, emphasizing my name.

Oh, that's it! I thought. He was grabbing onto my left hand. Awesome. I hit harder with my right.

SLAP!

"OW! What's up with you and slapping, Amu?!" he groaned, his hand letting go of my wrist so it can hold his face.

"It's so I can get annoying people to stop bothering me!" I shouted, and ran to my house, so I wouldn't have to deal with him. How come all perverts have to be so stupid?

Aruto's POV

Damn, what's up with Amu and slapping me and calling me names?

I sighed. I might as well go home, too. I need to plan again, so I don't get another painful slap.

Timeskip! To Aruto's Apartment!

I was in the bathroom, with the faucet running.

"Carefully..." I murmured, and carefully picked the contact lens from my eye. Now I can see my original eye color. It was blue, or dark purple.

"Ikuto, nya!" Yoru mewed.

"Damn it, Yoru! I told you to call me Aruto! If Amu finds out, then I'm flipping toast!"

"Sorry, nya." he apologized, his bangs covering his eyes. But then his head perked right back up, and then asked, "You know, Ikuto, you look really weird with black hair and blue eyes. Even weirder with those green eyes, nya."

"It's supposed to make me look different, Yoru." I sighed, then placed the contact lenses in it's case and squirted the solution in it.

"Ikuto," Yoru said. "Why are you coming back for Amu now? I mean," he paused, and placed his index finger on his chin. "That slut you were with 2 years ago was pretty hot. You know, Yamabuki?"

"Saaya?" If he liked him so much, then why didn't he go out with her? "Dude, you know that she got me drunk and slept with me."

"Holy crap, you slept with her?!" he screeched. God, that hurt my ears.

"I didn't know, okay? I should have listened to Amu when she told me that alcohol was really bad for you.." I sighed, once again.

He rolled his eyes.

"Well. Might as well start planning." I walked to the kitchen table and sat down. Yoru got me a piece of paper and pencil, and I started out at square one.

Time Skip! Tomorrow Morning..

Amu's POV

I walked to school, swinging my bag back and forward. The sun was shining, it wasn't really cloudy, and it was breezy. It was like yesterday.

"Oi, Hinamori!" Kukai called out to me, and I smiled, and ran up to him and hugged him.

"Hey, Kukai!" I giggled. He kissed me, then we walked hand-in-hand to school.

"Wow, they're so cute together!" some girl whispered to her friend.

"Wow, they're an item?" her friend whispered back.

"Yeah, you're so slow! Turtle~!" the girl laughed.

I laughed also.

"Hey, Koneko-chan!" I heard a very familiar voice say.

I groaned. Kukai looked at me questioningly, and I just shook my head. I took out some pepperspray from my bag in case he would try anything on me, and then I turned around to be met with those green eyes. Aruto.

"Yo." he simply said, and then grabbed my hand. "How's my favorite person today~?" he dragged out the "ay" and I seriously wanted to slap some tape over his mouth.

"I don't know who you are, but you better let go of her hand." Kukai said, and it sort of scared me. He was so serious, and his eyes had that glint in it, and that meant he was uber serious. I only saw it once, but it scared me. The last time I saw the glint was when some other guy was hitting on Utau, when we were Juniors.. And damn, Utau was thankful, yet scared.

"Oh?" Aruto smirked. "And who are you to her," he jerked his chin to me. "to say that?"

"Don't test me, Ikuto-look-alike." Kukai growled. I am seriously getting goosebumps. THe oh-so carefree Kukai changed to a really serious dude. "Just let go of her hand, and I won't hurt you."

"What, so the little soccer player is now afraid to lose his girlfriend?" Aruto taunted.

Everything went so fast. One second, Kukai was angry, then the next, Kukai threw a punch at Aruto.

Did I mention that Aruto fell into a fountain? I can't believe that our school would even put a deep fountain over here! The water went up to your thigh(or my thigh) and Aruto fell in.

I saw some black stuff float around his head. He laid face up in the pond, but I guess he still had his breath. Something came out of his eyes, and it looked like a clear circle or something. His eyecolor changed to blue, and his hair was a mix black and dark blue.

It couldn't be, right? It couldn't be him, the one who..

Things got real fighty, real fast. The next thing I knew was that Kukai went at him! I never knew he had this side of him.. Well, no one pushed him to this limit, so..

"A-Amu!" I heard Aruto say. "H-Help me!"

What the freak? Aruto, a guy, asking for my help, a girl?

"Kukai, Kukai!" I yelled, and I managed to pry his hands from Ikuto's neck, and his foot from Ikuto's.. Uhm, area. "It's okay, I have pepperspray!"

Aruto's face went like this: T_T;

Kukai took a deep breath, and decided to help Aruto up. Aruto got up, glared at Kukai, then hid behind me.

"Ding dong~!" went the school bell, and Kukai kissed me on the cheek, glared at Aruto, then left with a "I'll see ya later!"

Damn, major mood change much?

"Amu." Aruto said quietly, while walking beside me. I raised my eyebrow.

"You have the next class with me??" I asked him, and he nodded.

"I do. And.." he paused. "Thanks.. I didn't fight back because I might have hurt him really badly."

I scoffed. "He hurt you really badly as well. I mean, look at him! He was wet, but at least he had a jacket. He also had a small bruise on his cheek, slowly beginning to form. Then a cut on his hand.

"I-I have something to tell you." he murmured quietly. I looked at him, expecting his answer. I was sort of trying to hold back my laughter, since his eye color was now blue for some reason, his hair was a mixture of black and blue, and he was soaking wet! "Do you think I'm really Aruto? What if I was someone else?"

-Color My World-
