A Violin's Song

Chapter 6

It was uncomfortable sitting in the Royal Garden. Dumb Kiddy King had to come along. I thought angrily. Luckily Tadase had gone to make tea or something.

"This is bad desu," I heard Su murmur to Amu. I agreed with her. Easter wasn't our only problem. The Guardians surely wouldn't approve of us being together.

"Now what nyan?" Yoru asked.

"I don't know," I muttered. Amu looked really upset, too. She knew what was going to happen. Easter wasn't going to prevent us from being together, the Guardian's were.

"No way," She said, clutching her towel. The she surprised me by jumping out of her chair. Then she snuggled close against my chest.

"Amu," I murmured. I stroked her hair gently. Then I heard her crying. She really loves me. I thought surprised. As much as I love her.

"Huh?" We both jumped at the voice. It was two of the other guardians.

"Rima? Yaya? What are you doing here?" Amu asked surprised quickly trying to wipe away her tears.

"Well there was going to be a meeting," Rima replied eyeing me.

"Yeah," Yaya looked nervous.

"I knew I forgot something," Amu sighed.

"You're here already?" I looked over my shoulder to see Tadase coming back. He had made some tea.

"Yes," Rima replied. All the Guardian's took a seat around the table. Then it was quiet for a few minutes. Those were very nerve-racking minutes, too.

"That's it!" Amu exclaimed leaping to her feet again. "I don't care what you guys care or think! It doesn't matter to me! It doesn't matter he's from Easter either. I love Ikuto!" She yelled at the three Guardian's. I blinked surprised and I had to stifle a laugh when Tadase nearly choked on his tea.

"I wasn't going to say anything," Rima said simply.

"Amu-chi has a boyfriend!" Yaya giggled. I was even more surprised at their reaction. But I noticed that Tadase was being very quiet.

"R-Really?" Amu stuttered.

"Yes," Rima repeated.

"Why should we?" Yaya asked smiling. But then Tadase stood up abruptly.

"T-Tadase-kun?" Amu asked nervously. He ignored her and walked right out of the Royal Garden.

"What's wrong with him?" Yaya asked clearly confused. She looked around. I bit my tongue to keep from saying, "He's jealous." Rima exchanged a look with Amu.

"I guess we can talk to him tomorrow," She sighed.

"About what?" Yaya asked.

"Dummy," I muttered under my breath. I don't think any of them heard either. So then with that partially solved Amu and I went back to her house. She was able to find some clothes that fit me while we washed our mud-stained clothes.

"That was surprising," Amu said while we were laying on her bed.

"Yeah," I replied.

"I guess Yaya and Rima don't care desu," Su commented.

"But Tadase does nyan," Yoru pointed out. I shot a glare at him. Amu sighed. Once again she cuddled close to me.

"I don't think it matters," I told her. He should know he lost. I thought to myself.

"Maybe," Amu murmured. "But if that's not the case, I won't give up anyway!" I smirked.

"When have you ever give up?" I asked. She smiled at me.

"Never," She replied. Then I kissed her gently.

"Yeah, and I hope you never will," I murmured as we broke apart. Amu just smiled at me again.

"I won't," She told me, before we both fell asleep.

The next day I decided I might as well go to school. But as I took my seat I was still thinking about the previous days. This is a perfect week. I thought to myself.

"Wow Ikuto's actually in school!" Katsu exclaimed. I shot a glance towards him.

"What was your first clue?" I retorted. Emi laughed at both of us.

"You guys are ridiculous," She giggled. "But anyway..."

"Where'd you and Amu go?" Katsu asked finishing her sentence.

"I walked her home," I told them.

"And?" Emi pressed.

"That's all," I replied trying to keep my face straight.

"Really?" Katsu asked.

"Because Amu-chan's story was different," Emi giggled again.

"You didn't talk to Amu," I smirked. They thought they were so smart.

"How do you know?" Emi asked also smirking.

"Because I was with her yesterday and last night," I replied, but then I realized what I had just said.

"You spent the night at her house?" Katsu laughed. "I knew you're a pervert."

"I didn't expect that," Emi giggled. I blushed furiously.

"Shut up!" I said angrily.

"So have you kissed?" Emi asked.

"Maybe," I looked away quickly.

"They have!" Emi laughed again. Katsu and her both burst out laughing.

"Aw Ikuto loves a younger girl," Katsu teased. Right now I was very tempted to Character Transform and kill both of them.

"Shut up!" I yelled angrily.

"It's so adorable," Emi continued ignoring me. "You two are such a cute couple, too."

"Yeah," Katsu agreed. I glared at them again.

"Those idiots," I muttered under my breath. Then while those two were blabbing on and on. I noticed something sitting in Emi's bag. It was a Guardian Egg!
