Me: -yawn- Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I have to read this uninteresting book. X.x

Ikuto: The cat licked its… its… thaw?

Amu: PAW, you idiot, PAW!!

Ikuto: But I thought "p" makes a "thhh" sound!! That's what you told me!
Flashback

It's 4:30 in the morning, neither of them have gotten sleep.

"It's paw, right? It says paw!" says Ikuto.

Amu has dark purple bags under her eyes. "The sentence reads ttttttttttthhhhh…" she began the sentence, but fell over, sleeping soundly.

Me: … Ok then. (I fail at being funny. Cut me some slack xD)

Amu: Moron x.x

Chapter 4 (I think o.0)

Meeting Amu's Father :O

Still the first day xD

"Miss Amu. May I server you in any way?" a butler came to us as soon as we entered the palace. It was adorned with gold, and wherever there wasn't gold was pure white marble. I was surprised it didn't have moss all over it.

"YAYA WANTS CRABCAKES!" the childish girl exclaimed.

Amu rolled her eyes. "Two crabcakes. Anything for you, Ikuto?"

I shook my head. I looked around more.

There was a marble table with a gold vase in the corner holding colorful coral. It was placed near a portrait of Amu. She was wearing a crown made of pearls. She had an elegant smile, her golden eyes twinkling in what seemed to be a coral reef. (Use your imagination ;])
"Well, c'mon, Ikuto," she beckoned me up the stairs. Why did they need stairs? Well, anyway.

We swam up the stairwell. The railing was golden with detailed designs. The stairs were, coincidentally, marble.

After some swimming, we came to a golden door. Sculptures were placed on each side.

"Father." Said Amu. Her tail was now golden, matching the palace. But her eyes had hints of silver.

"Come in" came her answer. The voice boomed through the palace. It almost began to shake, but a blue light emanated from Amu's hand and it settled.

"This is Ikuto. My boyfriend," she told what seemed to be a dark corner. I smirked, winding my arm around her. She didn't dare to wrench free for her father would know it was a fake.

Then a large, muscular shape slowly found it's way out of the shadows. Then, there stood – I mean-floated- a very meaty man with large abs, a muscular tail, and a puffy white beard. It swayed in the water. On the merman's head was a gold crown, which somehow brang out his piercing blue eyes.

"Booooooyyyyffrrieeendd?" the voice boomed again. I jumped back a little, but Amu and Yaya stood still.

"Yes. His name is Ikuto, like I said." The merman's eyes scanned me over and over, as if to see I was "Amu Material". I shifted my eyes to Amu, then to the merman, then to Yaya, then to Amu again. She threw me a reassuring glance

"Prove it," the merman ordered.

Amu widened her eyes. "B-But!!" her tail turned purple, along with her once-golden eyes.

Uh-oh. I thought.

"Kiss him."

Now it was my turn to widen my eyes. My mouth went strangely dry, which was awkward because we were sublimed in water. But I wanted to. Strange. I never felt this way towards any girl in school.

The merman gave us both a look. Yaya had a disgusted look on her face.

Amu sighed, large bubbles flowing from her mouth. She swam to me, pecked me on the lips, and held my hand. Even that made me blush, so I turned away, pretending to look around in the room.

"Some couple you are," the fish-slash-human grunted. But he waved his hand dismissively.

Once we made it out of the palace, Yaya munching her crab cakes happily, me looking down, and Amu doing the same.

"Yaya better go. Tsubasa wants some, too!" she swam away, us not even getting a chance to say bye.

Suddenly, Amu hugged me.

"Amu?" I asked her.

"Just… let it stay like this, for a little while," she said. I saw her crimson red cheeks with her eyes shut tight.

"Okay," I agreed, and hugged her back.

Me: I can't do the whole kissing-tongue-playing mush. … xD

Ikuto: Awwwwwwwww! -.-

Amu: -blushes madly-

Me: REVIEW :D
