Me: I'm back!

KusuKusu: You seem happy. Why? Did you find your lucky bracelet?

Me: No, I just had sugar. How did you know that I lost my lucky bracelet?

KusuKusu: Uh, Disclaimer: Milly-chan doesn't own Shugo Chara or any of it's characters.

Me: Don't change the subject.

KusuKusu: Enjoy!

Me: KusuKusu, get back here!

(Yua's POV)

8:40 AM

Where is that frikin' Kirishma-kun? He said that he'll be here before 9; there's only 20 more minutes. When I get my hands on him I'll-

"Ne, Yua-tan can you help me lift this box to the truck? Is Kirishma-kun coming?"

"Sure, Rima-chi. Hang on a sec, I'll call him." I grabbed my phone from my pocket and dialed his number. That punk better answer.

Hello?

"Kirishma-kun, you better get your butt here in ten minutes or-"

Hello, who's this?

"Kirishma, it's me Yua. Rima's leaving in-"

Can you repeat that?

"IT'S ME YUA! Rima's leaving in ten-"

Ha, got you. Leave a message after the beep.

I am so going to kill him. I left a message then put my phone back into my pocket and helped Rima-chi load her last box into the truck. I then helped Rima put the smaller boxes in the back of the van.

I checked the time; it was 8:50. I was leaving in seven minutes to rehearse for an upcoming concert in Japan. Damn, where is Kirishma-kun?

(Kirishma's POV)

"Arigatou gozaimasu," I said as I took the wrapped gift box.

I decided to wake up early to buy Rima-chan her present. I knew exactly what to get her. Last week, Yua-tan and Rima-chan, but mostly Yua, dragged me to go shopping with them. We breaked for lunch after I begged Yua. While walking to the food court, Rima stopped and looked at an amethyst necklace in the window.

I got it for Rima. I hope she likes it.

As I was walking to Rima's house, I felt my phone bzzzz in my pocket. I had one new voice message from Yua. I listened to it.

KIRISHMA, YOU GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE IN FIVE MINUTES OR ELSE! Rima's leaving; don't you want to say goodbye to her and or…the other thing? By the way, CHANGE YOUR DAMN ANSWERING MACHINE!

Well, that was a friendly message. I looked at the time; it was 8:55. I had five minutes to get there. Crap. I ran the fastest I could all the way to Rima's house.

(Rima's POV)

"Bye Rima-chi, I'll miss you. Call me once you get there," Yua said with tears in her eyes as she hugged me. I'll miss Yua-tan a lot. I wonder where Kirishma-kun is though.

Yua and I let go of our embrace and she walked slowly to the awaiting limo. She waved one last time, went inside the limo and the car drove off.

"Onee-san, momma says it's time to go." I checked the time; it was 9:00. I guess Kirishma-kun forgot the time. Oh well, hopefully I'll see him soon. I followed Rikka to the van where my mom and dad were waiting.

I helped Rikka get into her car seat and then took my seat next to her. As soon as I clicked my seatbelt, my dad started the car. I checked my phone seeing if Kirishma sent a message saying he was coming, but there was none.

I heaved a sigh. My dad started backing out of the driveway. He pulled out fully from the driveway and started to drive. We came to a small pause at the stop sign. After the stop sign, there was no turning back.

My dad looked in the rearview mirror noticing something behind us.

He turned to me and said, "Hey Rima, looks like one of your friends is late." I turned around and saw Kirishma-kun running toward the car.

I unsnapped my seatbelt, opened the car door and stepped out.

(Kirishma's POV)

I am really going to take a nap after this; I am pooped out. I stopped to take a breather. At least I caught Rima-chan before she left. I panted for a little bit longer knowing they stopped. I looked to the ground until I noticed petite shoes walking in my direction. I glanced up and saw Rima-chan smiling. I quickly hid the box behind me.

"Kirishma-kun," Rima said sweetly. I smiled at her about to give the present until she crossed her arms, huffed and angrily said, "You're late!"

It took me a bit to realize that this was one of her acts. "Gomen Rima-chan. You see I had to get something before coming here."

With her arms still crossed, one eye open and one closed she responded, "Oh? What did you have to get that was so important that you couldn't wait until after one of you're best friends left to get?"

I knew it was time. I put my hands out in front revealing the blue and pink gift wrapped package. She stared at it looking shocked and somewhat surprised.

I looked at her and said, "I know it's kind of late," I pushed the box toward her, "but happy birthday."

She just stared at the box making no sudden movements. Is she mad for giving her present late? I hope not. The last thing I'd want is for Rima to be mad before she-

It one swift motion, Rima ran up to me and gave me a hug.

I am so lucky she's shorter than me, so she can't see my face. My face felt so red for two reasons. One, the girl I've liked since seventh grade is hugging me and two, her parents and little sister are watching me. Talk about awkward.

She finally let go of my hug. It was probably just me in a daze, but I could have sworn Rima's face was red as well. Does she like me too?

We stood in silence until I pushed the box toward her again. This time, she took it and smiled.

I watched her pull the pink ribbon off the petite present. I just hope she likes it.

She lifted the lid off the box. She peered inside the box before giving the biggest smile in the world. When I saw her smile, I could've sworn my heart skipped a beat. It's to be expected though since I like her, right?

She reached inside the box for the necklace. The necklace was a purple amethyst heart with a crown of mini diamonds at the top of the heart. The necklace was a silver chain. (AN:// Picture on profile) I didn't know much about jewelry, so when Rima-chan asked me questions about the necklace I just nodded and pretended that I knew the answer.

After a few more pointless, in my opinion, questions, she finally asked me one question I could answer.

"Kirishma-kun, could you put the necklace on for me?" She handed the necklace to me.

"Hai," I replied. I unhooked the clasped and wrapped it around Rima's neck. I then closed the clasp. Rima's hair was in the chain, so I carefully lifted every strand of her golden hair out.

She smiled again. What an awesome day!

She lifted her hand to the amethyst heart and started to twirl it. I just stared at her like a creeper. After a few seconds, she looked up at me.

"Kirishma-kun, arigatou for everything."

I was about to reply, but then Rima walked toward me, stood on her tiptoes and kissed me…on the cheek. I stood stiff. I mean Rima and I have kissed and it wasn't on the cheek, but only because it was an accident. After the accident, I liked her more than a friend, but only Yua-tan knew.

This, however, was different. She did this on her own.

In the corner of my eye, I noticed Rima's parents and Rikka were watching on the edge of their seats. This is really awkward.

Rima backed up from me. "Kirishma-kun, I have to tell you something."

"I do too. Do you mind if I go first?"

"No, not at all."

I hesitated wondering if I should really tell her my true feelings for her. "Rima-chan, ever since seventh grade, I-"

BEEEP! (AN:// It's supposed to be a car horn)

I was interrupted by a car horn.

"Sorry Kirishma-kun, I have to go."

I nodded nonetheless and let her return to the car after we hugged one more time. "Wait!" I yelled as she turned in the direction of the van. I reached into my pocket for the note, but I stopped. "Never mind."

She gave a small smile and nodded. "See you soon!" she yelled. She dashed toward the van leaving me alone.

After a few seconds, the van started up again and then drove away to never return here.

I began walking home and reached in my pocket and pulled out the piece of paper. It was the note I was about to give Rima-chan if I didn't want to tell her face-to-face. I was about to tell her, but she had to leave. I was going to give her the note before she went back to the car, but I retreated.

I guess she'll never know.

(Rima's POV)

I got into the van clicked my seatbelt and my dad began to drive. I held the pendant in my hands and looked back. I was going to tell him, but I didn't. I guess he'll never know.

About five minutes into the drive, my dad interrupted the quiet by saying, "Rima, I just want you to know, if I didn't own that guy for taking you home after school and if he wasn't your friend, I would've beaten the crap out of him."

Wow, I never thought my dad could be so protective. I didn't want to talk about this thus, I changed the subject.

"How long is it from Kyoto to Tokyo?"

I glanced at my dad's face in the rearview mirror; he seemed to lighten up. "Five to six hours," he finally replied.

I sat there with a horrified expression. FIVE TO SIX HOURS! I cannot, repeat cannot, stay in a car for five to six hours.

I am going to die of boredom.

Two and a Half Hours Later

I am really bored. I'm bored to the point that banging my head against the window constantly was entertainment. I really should've gotten my iPod and DVD player out of the box in the moving truck. It'll get to my house before I do.

I would play with Rikka, but she's asleep. She's two, can't she skip naps now. I would talk to my parents, but their concentrating on driving; I wouldn't want to disturb them.

Yeah right. I would never talk to my parents even if I was this bored. I'll just be banging my head against the window until we get there.

Bang! Ow! Bang! Ow! Bang! Ow! Ba-

"Hunny-Bunny, what are you doing?" my mom asked me. I stayed quiet. Maybe if I don't make a sound, she'll assume I'm asleep and my head just banged against the window on its own. I have fallen asleep with my eyes open; I'm not sure how though.

It took a while, but I'm pretty sure she knew I was awake. If she didn't, she wouldn't have had a conversation with my dad and me.

"I wonder if Rima will finally get a boyfriend in Tokyo." What the hell is wrong with her?

"What the hell is wrong-" Crap, I just blew my cover.

My mom saw my face in the mirror. "I knew it Rima-tan, you can't fool me."

I face-palmed.

She was about to speak again. I thought she was going to say that Rikka and I could never fool her because she has super mom skills, but instead she continued on with the topic.

"Rima-tan there are a lot of nice boys in Tokyo, I'm sure." Why is she continuing on with this? I peered over at my dad who was gripping the steering wheel tighter and tighter. "Don't you agree, Isamu?"

My dad didn't respond by words, but he responded by actions. We were driving on the highway. I could have sworn he swerved a little.

My mom just kept talking.

"Hopefully, our Rima-tan will find someone who loves her passionately and would do anything for her."

My dad swerved again. I felt the need for me to strangle my mom increasing. What mom talks about this?

"She'll find her prince charming who will sweep her off her feet."

My dad swerved yet again. Isn't she taking the hint? Does she want us to get in an accident?

"Finally one day, Rima will get married. You, Isamu, will walk her down the aisle and give her to the man of her dreams," my mom sing-songed.

My dad swerved one more time. It was a big swerve that we were so close into getting into an accident. Way to go, Mom!

"Honestly, Isamu could you watch where you're driving?"

Well Mom, could you watch what you're saying?

My parents soon got into a little spat about when I could get a boyfriend or that I'm getting married once I'm 50.

I truthfully don't understand my parents at all, but then again, what child does?

I turned to my right only to see Rikka still sleeping. How can she still be asleep?

Forty Five Minutes Later

My parents finally stopped their little spat for what seemed like a century. Their spat though made me feel tired.

So tired to the point that I drifted off to sleep.

Two Hours and Twenty Minutes Later

I woke up from a nice nap. Hopefully, I won't be cranky and I'll have a lot of energy to help move boxes into the house.

I lifted my head and immediately noticed three things:

1. It was 3:07 which meant we were in Tokyo.

2. The car was parked somewhere unfamiliar.

3. My parents and Rikka were gone.

My parents and Rikka were gone! What the hell!

The two front seats and the car seat next to me were empty. I unlocked my seatbelt and tried to open the car door, but it wouldn't.

Grr, my parents put the door on child lock.

How long am I supposed to wait here? I was about to bang my head against the window because I knew I was going to be very bored, but I saw the car keys were on the driver's seat.

At least I can listen to music.

I put the key in the ignition and turned on the radio. I raised the volume, so I could hear the music. I lay back in the passenger's seat and listened to the song playing.

Ima
Atarashii watashi ni umarekawaru
Yuuki o dashite
Kagayaki tsuzukeyou
My Heartful Song
My Heartful Song
Utau yo itsumademo
Anata ni todokimasu youni

The song finished. I thought it was a really good song. I listened for the title and the artist.

"And that was Hoshina Utau's Heartful Song," the DJ said.

Hoshina Utau? Never heard of her, but I like her song.

I continued listening to the radio and another two of Hoshina Utau's songs played which were Meikyuu Butterfly and Taiyou ga Niau yo.

While listening to the radio, I was surprised she was from Tokyo. She's either not a well-known singer or it was just me. I think it was me since she had a lot of her songs playing on the radio.

Maybe, I'll get to meet her. Haha, yeah right.

Another song was about to play; it was 3: 20 when my parents and Rikka finally arrived. They were carrying at least twenty different bags.

They told me to open the door. Should I?

I opened the door when I saw that Rikka was about to cry.

I crawled to the back of the van. My parents loaded the bags into the back and took their seats in the front.

I put Rikka in her car seat and she started playing with my hair.

When my dad started driving, I asked the question.

"Where did you go?" As I asked the question, I sounded irritated.

"Rima, if you're mad, blame your mother. I swear that I wanted to get home to meet the moving trucks, but then she saw a shopping mall and asked me if we could stop by. I kept telling her no, but then she bribed me with special Japanese candy. I'm sorry," my dad quickly explained.

My dad's love for Japanese candy scares me sometimes.

"Yes, its true Rima, but we bought you some stuff if that makes you feel better," my mother said happily.

Oh, so they're bribing me not to get mad by buying me some stuff. I'll take it.

We continued driving until we got to our new home.

Thirty Six Minutes Later

"Amazing, the shopping mall is pretty close to our home," my mom exclaimed.

Wonderful, she's going to drag me to the mall whenever she feels like shopping.

"Are you sure, we're going in the right direction?" my father inquired.

I was wondering the same thing. We were driving into a neighborhood of rich houses.

My dad's company did say they picked a nice house for us to live in and they would help pay for it, but I didn't expect this.

"Yeah, that's what the GPS says," my mom replied. She actually trusts the GPS?

My dad still drove and listened to my mom/GPS. We are going to get lost.

Twenty Eight Minutes Later

I knew it! We did get lost. We probably circled the whole neighborhood seven times.

My mom finally stopped listening to the GPS and decided to ask somebody.

My mom stepped out of the car and knocked on one of the houses.

She came back and told us that my dad turned too early.

We went back to the highway. I knew my dad's company was too cheap to buy those houses. One good thing about this was that our house would actually be far from the mall. Yes!

Another Thirty Six Minutes Later

We finally arrived at our house…I mean mansion. I was wrong; my dad's company isn't too cheap to buy us a mansion. I was also wrong about the GPS. The GPS was only wrong because my mom typed in the address wrong. It worked when my dad typed in the right address. Grrrr!

At first I thought the mansion wasn't ours, but then I saw the banner that said, "Welcome Mashiros!" and the moving trucks were there.

I got out of the car and was instantly amazed at the mansion. It wasn't exactly as big as a mansion, but it was still bigger than our other house.

The mansion also was surprisingly not Japanese inspired. It looked like an American mansion. Cool!

I spun looking at the neighbor's mansions which were also American inspired.

This is the life!

"Onee-san, momma says to help unload." Rikka interrupted my fantasizing.

I went to the van and unloaded the smaller boxes since the moving men and my dad were doing the bigger boxes. I unloaded all the boxes from the van. Now all I had to do was carry them inside.

I was carrying one box when I went into the house and I was instantly hypnotized by the inside.

I think I'm going to like it here.

To be continued…

Me: I hope you enjoyed!

KusuKusu: Interesting chapter.

Me: Please don't hate me if the story wasn't good. I kind of got lazy and I didn't have my lucky bracelet to give me inspiration.

KusuKusu: Aww, here Milly-chan. *Hands Lucky Bracelet*

Me: So you did take my lucky bracelet.

KusuKusu: *Sweat drops*

Me: Oh well. 'Til next time!

Rant:

I don't like school. Then again, who does? I have to do a presentation where I have to dress up and tell about…history or something. At least I got something interesting.

I'm also losing my voice. I have a really low immune system that even if I'm in contact with someone sick, I'll get sick the next day. Grr!

P.S. Thanks for the reviews. Each review feels like a hug from a friend. ;)

P.P.S I'm glad that you like the OC's so far. Since they weren't in the anime in a lot of episodes, I thought that I'd put them in my story. Also, since they weren't in the anime in a lot of episodes, I didn't know their personality. Yua's personality is based off two of my friends and Kirishma's personality is based off my cousin.

Truths:

#7: 99.9% of things I worry about, aren't things I should worry about.

#8: I'm really, really, really scared of dolls. (Will be explained in chapter)
