I wanna cross your mind

IKUTO POV

I saw Tadase coming up to Amu. I felt myself anger up, but decided to let it go for now. I stayed close, just to be sure of course. After I found her, I became really protective over her. Just because I didn't want her to get hurt after that terrible storm. She went through enough.

I heard Amu stuttering. What was this feeling? Anger, jealousy? Why would I be jealous? Shit!

I turned to see why she was stuttering and saw Tadase coming closer to her, like he was going to kiss her. With one look at her face I could tell she was scared as hell. What's he doing? I told him about how I found her.

Rushing my way to her without excusing me for bumping into people I walked up ready the beat the hell out of Tadase. He may be my friend, but he may not touch something or someone I care about.

I was right next to him and gave him a hell of a punch. His head smacked against the wall and I even saw some blood coming from his nose. Ugh now I have to was my hands. They were covered in blood. Apparently the blood was caused by my punch and not by the wall…

Oh wait I'm forgetting something. Oh yeah, I should say something to him why I punched him. 'Don't try to touch her ever again.' I tried to keep my cool, but it was very hard.

He glared at me and stood up. I could smell the aroma of alcohol coming out of his mouth. Oh..he was drunk. They say your true nature comes out when you're drunk, right?

'Why would you care.' He spat at me. Oh now he did it. Now he really did it. I punched him again, but in the stomach. I care, because I … love her, I thought, but I just couldn't let her now yet. She should figure out her own feelings first. 'Cause I protect her from bad influences.' From the corner of my eye I could see Amu's eyes widen. Shit. Would she be mad? I guess she is. Okay just pretend like nothing happened.

I turned to see a still big eyed angry Amu. 'Let's go, Amu. We're going home.'
Letting Nagi know we were going, we walked out.

It seemed like Amu calmed down a bit. Damn, this is awkward. I still don't know what she is thinking. I hope she doesn't take it too bad.

'Is it true?' I heard her say. After I turned to her I noticed we stopped walking. She had a concerned expression on her face. Pretend like nothing happened, maybe she'll forget. This is really the most stupid thought I've ever had, but I could try, right?

'Is what true?' I asked back like I didn't know what she meant. She looked up looking straight at me with those perfect honey eyes. Oh god, I couldn't bear it anymore. 'That you just want to protect me? Nothing more?' Her perfect waving hair flowing over her shoulders down to her back. Hesitating I kept looking her in the eye. Should I tell her?

This is my chance. If I don't tell her she'll never be mine. 'No.' After I answered I averted my eyes. God, why am I so nervous? I closed my eyes. You know when you were little and you didn't want to know what would happen you just pretend like it wasn't there? Just like that.

I heard her moving. 'No what?' I turned to face her again. I can't keep this to myself. It's like torture, but if I tell her she would just deny it anyway. 'Amu, do you have feelings for me?'

Her eyes were huuuuuuuge and she looked a bit taken aback. 'N. .' Her voice was small. If I didn't have sensitive hearing I wouldn't have heard it. 'Okay then.' I looked to the ground. I knew she was lying, but if she's not ready to admit it yet I'll leave her be for now.

She looked confused and it was kind of awkward. Finally she spoke. 'Why where you so angry at Tadase? It's not like you really care what I do. You ignored me all day. Then you go shopping with me and be all kind and all and now you're saying you care. Hard to believe, don't you think?' She looked to the ground. It was kind of cute, cause she looked so shy and all. I've only seen her like this the first time she woke up after I found her.

I did understand her point though. I wasn't being very consequent, but could you blame me?! She's making me and my hormones crazy!

'I'm not sure..' I was actually, but I didn't want her to know that. 'Oh okay.' She answered.

AMU POV

WTF is wrong with him?! He is acting so strange all day and now he doesn't even know why he was being so angry at Tadase. Sure he saved me from Tadase and I'm very thankful for that, but the reason for his anger was still a mystery.

And then he comes with a random question if I have feelings for him. What the hell is he thinking?! I did, but I wouldn't let him know that. What? Bad idea? What if he would laugh at me? I don't think I could handle that.

We walked a little bit farther. I just could bear this anymore. Maybe I should confess now. If he doesn't like me I'll just become a mermaid again somehow. Even now I don't know how, but I'll figure it out.

Okay there it goes. I stopped walking and looked up. 'Ikuto?' He turned around. Eyebrow raised at me. 'Yes, Amu?'

IKUTO POV

'I..I..do.' She said. 'You do what?' I asked her. What did she mean with I do? Like I was a mind reader or something. That would be really cool of course, but I should focus on this situation.

'I.I.. HAVE FEELINGS FOR YOU.' She blurted out. A blush appeared on my cheeks. She actually admitted it. Didn't expect her to do that actually. I smirked ' You have what? I think I didn't hear you very well.'

She became calm, but irritated. She could keep her calm an started to repeat herself ' I have feelings for you.' This time she was far more gentle and I was shocked from her mood change.

I moved closer to her and she blushed as well while taking a step back every time I took one till she bumped in some tree. 'Ssoo how do you feel about me?' She was a bit nervous and I wasn't sure if it was because she didn't know what I would reply or if it was cause by me coming closer.

I lowered my face to be at the same level and came even closer. I just couldn't stop myself anymore. What's wrong with me?! I felt something soft. On my lips. Wait. Was I kissing her? It was the best feeling ever though.

She kissed back and we stayed like that for a while. She broke it off. She was panting heavily. I guess she needed some air. Wait, I was panting myself too. Damn. Why am I not noticing these things anymore when I'm around her? 'So?'

'I feel like I can't stop thinking about you. I feel like you are the most important in my life. I feel like I wanna cross your mind. In the morning, the afternoon, in the night. Even if it's just for a moment.' I answered. It's a bit cheesy answer this way, I know. 'So you like me huh?' I asked her with a smirk.

She smiled. Even laughed for a moment. Well, I guess my hopes are crushed now. 'Better.' She said smiling. 'Better? Does that mean you..' She just nodded.

'That's right.' I couldn't help but smile 'I love you too.'
Before I put my lips gently on her soft ones. This kiss was a bit shorter, but I didn't mind, cause she was finally mine. She took my hand and we started walking to the beach house.

AMU POV

OMG. What just happened?! I confessed to Ikuto and he to me. We kissed..twice.. Is this how romance feels? I love being human! I was just too excited to, but I didn't want to ruin the moment so I kept quiet. I was still holding his hand. Could this last forever? I hope it does.

'Amu.' I turned to Ikuto knowing it was something important. His voice was so serious at the moment. 'Can we talk tomorrow? I need to tell you some things.' I nodded with a shy smile and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He smiled a bit but averted his eyes. I think it must be something really important then. I'm new with these things, don't blame me!

His cheeks gave a light pink colour. It's just so cute when that happens. I said goodnight and made my way to my room.

I saw Ikuto's uncle walking to the kitchen with a huge smile on his face. Did he see us? I hope he didn't. That would be embarrassing. I let it slip for now and covered myself with blankets after I brushed my teeth and washed off my make-up and started dreaming about tonight.

I know, it's a bit cheesy I know. sorry! It's shorter than the last time.. But the last one was extra long! I'll update the next chapter when I get the chance xx and I'll make it a long one again!
