I might actually get some KairiXAmu in this chapter. I'm sorry with spelling Tadase Tahase. I always do that for some reason...anyway, on to the story!

Now, what does this thing do?

Amu held the lock in her hand. What am I supposed to do with this? It must be valuable if all the guardians are protecting it. "Hey Ran, what do you think this lock is for?"

"I don't know, cheering?" Ran replied. That...was useless.

"Maybe it has something to do with charas. After all, the guardians had it." Miki said. That was some info Amu could use! "I just don't know what it is for. Maybe we could try it with all things relating to charas."

"Amu!" Utau clinged to her side. "It's been a while!" Not long enough Utau. She wasn't a bad friend at the beginning. The key word there was friend. She was pretty cool and a lot like Amu. When Utau started to like her, that was when they had a problem. "We really do need to spend some more time together!"

"Oh, you finally got off work?" Amu asked. She really tried to smile, but just looked like a threatening glace. Utau didn't notice, but Iru did and was smiling. The little devil would like that, wouldn't she?

"No, I have a concert in about an hour." Utau sighed. "Sanjo-san gave me some good news though. She'll allow you to come to the concert with us!" Utau sang. "Oh yeah, there is a condition. Since she is back with me, she can't keep an eye on her little brother. She wants you to keep an eye on him."

"That will work." Amu said dreamy eyed. Kairi, I get to see him! This is so great!

"Amu," Miki whispered in her ear, "Utau is going to react well to this."

"I'm glad you are so thrilled at coming! I never saw you react this way before!" Utau shined. She actually shined. It was scary. She was that happy? Oh, this was what Miki was warning me about. "You are finally warming up to me!" Utau took her hand and dragged her in the direction of the car.

At concert hall:

"It was so great for you to come." Sanjo-san said to me.

"No problem Sanjo-san. It was my pleasure." Sanjo-san doesn't know how much. I turned to Kairi. "So, your name is Kairi, right?"

"Yeah." Kairi said and he turned away. Did he like me? Was he scared of me? Did I put on cool and spicy accidently?

"Let's go in the concert hall." I smiled.

"You actually pulled off a decent smile!" My charas said in unison. Utau was already gone, lucky for me. I didn't want Kairi to die just yet. I really need to find someone she likes.

"Sure." Kairi replied. "What is your name?" He politely asked.

"Oh, Amu." I replied. He wanted to know my name! We sat in our seats in the hall. "So Kairi, what do you like to do?" I asked, to pass the time and get to know him better at the same time. No, he didn't see the notebook that I was planning to write all this stuff down in.

"I like to read Samurai books." Kairi replied enthusiastically and then he looked down. "I guess that is pretty strange for a kid now, but I really think Samurais are cool."

"No, I think they are cool too." So Kairi is into Samurais? I have to say, "It fits you." I did not mean to say that! I looked up, and saw that Ran was smiling. Oh, she was going to get it later!

"It does?" Kairi asked surprisingly.

"Yeah." I replied in cool and spicy tone. The lights turned off, and you couldn't see my blush. Then Utau began singing, and the X eggs began going up in the air. My lock (which now was conveniently around my neck) was trembling, but I ignored it. After the concert, I'll go to Utau and see what this thing wants. For right now, I just want to be a normal kid sitting next to my crush.
