Here you go! Chapter 4 is out! It's kind of short, but this is just a filler chapter. I want to build suspense before the party~ My sis said that it was not really humorous, but I'll make the next chapter really long! Anyway, please review and I don't own anything~


"I'll teach that cat to NEVER mess with the Ice Queen!" Rima blurted out to no one. She was walking home after a long day of setting up for the freak's birthday party. Kukai, Tadase, and Ikuto turned the garden into a disco themed get up with multi-colored lights, karaoke system (courtesy of Utau), huge stereos, and even a dance floor! At first, she thought about not attending at all. However, after seeing the place transformed, she figured that maybe she should after all. Her mother was working late that night, so why not have a little fun? Ikuto mistook this for something else and said, "Awww…is the shrimp finally falling in love? Well, that was quick!" Rima glared at him and stalked out of the room.

She was almost at her house when she saw a tall, purple haired girl walking along the street. An expression of anger was etched on her face as she pulled on her short mini skirt

( A/N: Guess whoooo:D)

" Stupid mother. I was just content on going on as Nagihiko but, NOOO, she had to just order me to go as….."

"Excuse me. Do you know Nagihiko?" Rima said to the strange girl. She was only able to catch some of what the girl was saying.

The girl froze at her tracks. For a slight moment, she trembled, but quickly recovered.

"Oh hello. You must be Rima-chan," the girl spoke in her high voice. She had ochre eyes and her hair was put up by a red ponytail.

"How do you know me? I've never seen you before." She glared suspiciously. This girl looks a lot like…..

"Nagihiko!" she exclaimed. "WAIT, WHAT ARE YOU DOING DRESSED AS A GIRL?"

The girl shook. For a short moment, she didn't speak. Then, she continued.

"Oh no," she chuckled nervously. "You're talking about my twin brother. I'm Nadeshiko." The girl smiled sweetly at the small, blonde girl.

"Oh. You must be the former Queen. And Amu's best friend," Rima said with a bitter edge in her voice. She hated it when Amu talked about the times when Nadeshiko was still there. Rima was very jealous of her.

Nadeshiko picked up that bitter edge, but pretended not to notice it.

"Yes, I was. The reason why I know you is because Nagihiko told me. He thinks you're cute." She snickered.

Rima felt her cheeks turn red. Nagihiko thinks she's cute?

"Oh. Well, I don't care," she replied, hoping that it sounded scornful.

"Ok. Well then, Rima-chan, I must go. Could you do me a favor?"

"What is it?"

"Please don't tell Amu about our, uh, meeting. You see, I want, um, surprise her sometime, uh, soon." Her ochre eyes pleaded intensely.

Rima hesitated then said, "Ok."

Nadeshiko smiled. "Thank you." Then, she went off.

Rima pondered. Why was the girl acting so nervous? Did she intimidate her? She thought it was strange when the girl asked to keep their meeting a secret…..

A voice called. "Rima! Is that you?" It was her mother. She was in front of their house.

"Mama, I'm coming!"

She ate dinner with her mom. It was the first time they did that in months. The steak Rima ate was delicious followed by a parfait her mom brought home for dessert. She finished eating.

"Mama, I'm going to a birthday party tomorrow. I'll be home at 8."

Her mom smiled. "Well, ok. That's good. Who's having a birthday?"

"Nagihiko Fujisaki," she replied in a cool tone.

"Did you buy a present yet?"

Rima was surprised by this. She never thought of giving a present. "I don't know what to get him. We're not very close AT ALL."

Mrs. Mashiro replied, "Well, I suggest you get one. Even though you're not close, maybe you can get something that most boys love."

She sighed. "Ok, Mama."

Her mother smiled then went upstairs. "Mommy is tired from work. Good night, Rima."

"Good night."

Rima went back to her bedroom and thought about the conversation she had with her mother. A present? She doesn't even know what Nagihiko likes. She saw him in many sports games, but didn't pay attention. Amu insisted on cheering for him, so Rima just tagged along with her. Nevertheless, it just bores her to death.

Then it hit her. "I know what to get him now."


Wasn't that a surprise? Anyway, the Fujisaki "secret" ( for those of you who watch, read, worship whatever Shugo Chara must know this) won't be revealed until, well, I FEEL LIKE IT!

Oh and it's another cliffie! Sorry! I'll make sure that I don't do that TOO often. ( I just really like the suspense_)

Please review! Believe it or not, I get "motivation" to write when you, people of the Earth, do!
