Skyl3r-M0on: I only got 5 new reviews on the last chapter, but that fine, close enough to 6 I guess. But anyways, I just recently found out that you can make covers for your stories on here and I made out! It's nothing professional or neat, but I liked it& I also made one for "Saving You" :D
Amu: I've been dying for this chapter and you're telling me you were busy making a cover?!
Skyl3r-M0on: Oh I've had this chapter done for a while, I just wanted to see if I could get more reviews, but I caved. I really wanted to post this, so here it is! I have move of chapter 5 typed out as well, it's pretty much done I just have to do a bit of editing, but I don't think I'll find the time cause I'm moving tomorrow, so I'll try for the day after tomorrow. ENJOY!
Amu groaned as she exited her last class. This be a painful day for her. All she wanted to do was get home and sleep. She walked out of the building and into the parking lot as she looked for Ikuto's car, and came up with nothing. She checked her her phone and noticed that he should've been here 10 minutes earlier, but he wasn't.
She then realized that she started work in about half an hour and he was late. Unlocking her phone, she dialed his number and called him. Almost immediately it went to voicemail. Amu pulled the voice from her ear and looked at it with a perplexed expression. Ikuto always answered her call. No matter what.
Shaking her head, she brushed it off and left a simple message asking him to get here as soon as possible. She stood and waited for 5 more minutes before calling again. Still no answer. Amu groaned in frustration at her boyfriend. Where could he be was what she was asking herself.
"So we meet again." A rugged voice said. At first glance she thought that Ikuto has finally gotten here, but then she saw the man's eyes and realized that it was just Yoru. Amu fully turned to the man and looked into the same golden eyes that had been on her mine the last several hours.
"Oh hi." She said turning back around. She was scanning the parking lot just praying that Ikuto would pull in already. She really didn't want to have to have another awkward encounter with this mysterious man.
"What bring you by?" He asked as he walked close to her.
Amu took a step back to keep him at a distance, but he only closed it again. "I go to school here."
"Are you waiting for someone." He asked. He noticed her eyes roaming and followed her eyes to the parking lot.
"Yeah, my boyfriend is picking me up." She checked her phone again and cursed under her breath.
"What? Are you in a rush or something?" Yoru questioned.
"Yeah I have work in fifteen and I have no idea where he is."
"I can give you a ride if you'd like." Yoru offered earnestly. "Where do you work?"
Amu didn't know what to do yet again. She couldn't be late again or her boss would chew her out, but she didn't know whether or not it was okay for her to take another ride from him. She didn't want to have to owe him again. But on the other hand she really needed to get to work.
"Come on," He pressed. "I can just give you a ride there and you won't owe me anything. I'm just doing this to help a friend."
She looked at him funny. She didn't remember agreeing to being friends with him, but she just brushed it off like it was nothing. Nodding she agreed to his offer. "Okay. I work on main street at the book store. Bookworm Luxury."
He nodded as he recognized the name. "Oh that place, yeah not too far. Let's get going."
Amu followed Yoru to his car.
"Woah." She said quietly as she starred at his car. Last night she wasn't able to see it properly from the poor light, but this care was beautiful. Amu knew a lot of cars, but this was one that she wasn't really familiar with. "What kind of car is this?"
"A 2013 Bugatti veyron." He said as he made his way around the car to the drivers side. Amu climbed into the car with him and they were off.
The whole ride to work she was distracted with the interior of the car that she didn't even notice that they'd arrived to her work place.
Yoru chuckled at her. She looked like a little girl who'd just got a new toy. "We're here."
Her head snapped to Yoru and she blushed. Looking out the window she realized they were right outside her work. She checked her phone and saw that she had 5 minutes left and sighed in relief.
Looking at Yoru she grinned. "Thanks for the ride, you really saved me again."
He waved a hand at her. "Don't mention it. You should probably get to work now before you're late."
She chuckled nervously. "Yeah, thanks again."
She hopped out of the car and made her way through the front door of the shop. The bell at the top of the door jingled as she walked in, alerting her boss that someone was their. Shino looked to the door and saw his employee, making him smirk as he glanced at the close them back to her.
"Hm, you're not late today, good job." He said. "Where's Ikuto, I have the book he ordered."
Amu walked over to him and went around the counter so she could put her bag away. "He didn't drop me off today, but I can give that to him tonight."
Shino nodded and handed her the book which she stuffed into her back.
"So how's school going?" He asked her, leaning against the counter with his arms crossed.
All she did was shrug. "It's school, it could be better but yeah it'd decent I guess."
He chuckled and nodded in understanding before his expression turned serious. "And how's your dad doing?"
She sighed and ran a hand through her hair. Shino and Ikuto were the only people that knew about her dad. Shino only found out when he noticed that every two weeks she'd take the same day off and he started getting suspicious. After a while of asking, she eventually told him, and he was supportive about it so she didn't regret telling him.
"He's doing better I guess." She said softly. "He's got 7 more months until the deal is over. But I think by then he'll be fine, but who know."
"So what do you need me to do today?"
Shino knew she was trying to change the subject but he just let her without a fuss. Glancing behind him to a cart in front of the check out counter he nodded towards it. "I need you to organize the new arrivals. Then I need you to reorganize the kids books. Some brat walked in earlier today and rearranged everything."
Amu groaned as she looked at the cart behind him. It was filled with books, and she hated rearranging the kids section. It wasn't hard for her to do, but it was how frequent she did it since kids just loved messing up that aisle. She could name all of those books in order from left to right do to how many times she had organize them.
"Okay well I have to call Ikuto first, to let him know that I got to work okay."
Walking to the back of the store for a little privacy, she pulled her phone and dialed his number. This time he picked up.
"Hey where are you?" He said as he answered her call.
"That what I should be asking you," She shot back. "I'm at work now but I waited and called but you never picked up. Why weren't you answering?"
"I got caught up with something," He answered. "and how'd you get to work?"
"A friend drove me." She told him.
"Why do you say that like I don't know them?" He asked skeptically. Ikuto knew all of her friends, heck he was friends with them too. So hearing his girlfriend pretty much say she had a secret friend made his stomach churn in worry.
"Because you don't." Amu didn't want to have to tell him about Yoru. She knew it wouldn't end well, since even through he wouldn't admit it, Ikuto was the jealous type.
"Why don't I know her?" He asked. "It is a her right?"
Amu bit her lip in slight panic. She didn't know how to answer that so she just came up with an excuse. "Shit okay Shino really wants me to get to work, we can talk about this when you pick me up okay."
"Fine, but I'm not letting this go okay."
She rolled her eyes. "Okay, well I'll talk to you later. Love you."
"Love you more." He said but he was sure that she barely heard it since the tone died right after. Pulling his phone from his ear he looked it with a worried expression.
He shook his head. No, she can't be cheating on me.
"Okay so where to next." The greened eyed girl asked as she looped her arm with his.
Skyl3r-M0on: Uh-oh, what's going on...?
Amu: YEAH I WANNA KNOW! Who's this green eyes bimbo looping her arms with my man?!
Ikuto: *whispers to Skyl3r-M0on* Did you know she was the jealous type?
Skyl3r-M0on:*shrugs* I'm as shocked as you bud.
Amu: You guys better R&R so Sky-chan can let me wreck this homewrecker...
Ikuto: *shiver* woah...this is so hot, yet so terrifying, but you heard the lady! The very pissed lady, might I add...R&R!
