Renee: Ha Amu, I found my chips!

Amu: No! Quick, Ikuto get them.

Ikuto: Why should I?

Renee: oh my, how long do we have to make this part? It ain't the story guys, its the disclaimer again, cause I forgot it in several chapters, and I'm too bored to fix it! DISCLAIMEr, don't own shugo chara.

Ikuto: You use the word aint, and also does that make sense?

Renee: :D nope


I opened my eyes to turn around.

I felt around, and Ikuto wasn't there. My only body heat was keeping me warm.

Huh, I thought Ikuto wanted to hug me everyday morning.

I walked around the house until I spotted Ikuto making breakfast- or smelled it. He was making waffles. I smelled the syrup. He was heating them on the frying pan to get an extra crispy taste. Just the way I like it.

I looked at him. "Good morning!" I said, happy. "Ah," Ikuto said. "Ther's my sleepin princess." He walked by and kissed me on the forehead. "How was your sleep?"

"Fine." I assured him.

" Did you dream of your big macho husband?"

I laughed. "noo, I dreamed of kitties and rainbows…" I exagerated.

"Ikuto kitties?"

"No!"

"Ikuto rainbows?" he asked cautiouly. "No!" I hit his arm when he walked by. He was sure in the most playful mood this morning.

"why are you so much… like yourself this morning?" I aked confuzzled. "ouch. That was mean." "How?" he laughed. "Am I not usually myself?" "we- nevermind! Answer the question!" he sighed. "I want to take us all to the beach today, brighten the mood a bit. You really scared me at the carnival yesterday, it wasn't even hilarious at all, you had me so worried that you were second guessing our marriage, so I want to show you that I love you more if that is a possibility." He stated.

"Of course I love you dumby." He held my cheeks as I said that. His hand were warm. "That really did bother me you know, least you coud do is give me a hug after all that!" He pouted frantically. I put my arms out. "Fine, give me the hug." I sighed, Ikuto lowering to my level and squeezing me while his face was just above my chest.

"I love you." He mumbled.

"I love you too, Ikuto." I pattede his head, since he was acting funny this morning.

Of course I loved him. What was not ?

Maybe other than the fact that.. no, I can't find anything wrong with him at the moment, because if anyrthing he was being impossibly adorable this morning.

I sighed.

Why can't I have two husbands, they do it in some countries..?

No, that's not what I want though.

I want them both to be happy, and I want to be happy.

Maybe I should just…. No… stop thinking to yourself stupid ideas Amu.

When Me and yaya got to the beach, driven by Ikuto. I changed out of my shots and tank top, and came out of the beach change room.

"You look amazing in that Amu!" Yaya cheered.

Yaya was wearing a red polka dotted one piece, with no mascara on today. I had the strangest urge to start singing that 'polka dot bikini' song that was a commercial years before.

As I got in the water, me and Yaya frolicked in the water.

I floated on my back. The ocean was luke warm temp. and it was pretty relaxing with the hot sun.

I closed me eyes, until I felt something push against my back underwater.

What was-? I looked around me first. Yaya wasn't around. So I looked below me, as I turned around so my stomache was now facing the bottom of the ocean.

I froze. Typical in movies to see things like sharks come out and get you, but right now I was in shock. I couldn't move. I felt more like I was in the movie…. Finding nemo?

Around me were dozens of jellyfish. They didn't come into my sight at first, but when I looked at the blurs in the water, and focused on them, that's when I saw what they were.

I-i couldn't move. It wouldn't do a thing. I was surprised they hadn't shocked me yet, but maybe they were like bears or something-

Didn't move until your prey did.

Don't be silly, jellyfish can't eat you! Though they can sting you….

I felt every inch of my body slightly move backward.

I guess what had touched me before was just the top of the jelly fish, which wasn't the shocking part. Literally.

I felt the urge to run, but what use would it be in water? I kept inching back, until my throat swallowed the rock. I did scream. Really loud, so everyone on the beach could hear.

"Amu.!" Ikuto shouted, diving in the water. I noticed Yaya was on land.

The blue haired boy had the same color as the deep waters. He swam all the way over until he stopped to notice thetranslucent up side-down cups float around me.

He was too worried about me, so he made a move. He inched closer to me too fast, and he touched one by accident. I don't mean he touched the top, either.

"Ikuto! Are you okay?" He winced with pain. "You idiot, Ikuto, you should have stayed there!" I cried, in pain seeing my husband hurt.

"Dummy, just let me help you!" he screeched back, as I flinched, and proceeded to be lifted up by the male and carried back to shore, him making sure I didn't touch any jellyfish.

I could tell he was in pain from where he got shocked, because he was still blinking.

Ikuto..

You offer more than you should for me..

when we got to the shore, he collapsed, the water no longer making it easier to deflect gravity, or pain.

"Ikuto! What happened!" Yaya called. You saw the whole thing, and you heard me scream. It. Was. Evil. Jellyfish.

"Nothing ya-" He got cut off by his own groan.

I ran to support him as he laid on the soft, warm sand. I cried right then. "You idiot Ikuto.." I mumbled, now playing with his hair, as he tried to not feel pain. My tear landed on his arm, and he instinctyively opened his eyes.

"Amu, please do not cry, I hate seeing you sad….." he begged me. "I wish you did not do that.." I hugged him around the chest, tears budding in my eyes agin. "Amu, please." He asked kindly. I rubbed my eye, as I waited for Yaya to get back from getting help. Wait, when did Yaya leave to get help?

I looked around for her. Not a cheery girl in sight.

I just laid down beside him, hugging him and not touching his leg. "Ikuto. I love you." I plainly stated, holding his muscular, firm chest.

" I- love you to, Dear." He said, sweat now on his forehead. If he hadn't already almost ried for the hot japan sun, I would have alreay thought he was just wet still.

Moments later, Yaya appeared, and ran through the lacey beach grains.

"Well?" I impatiently said. "The medics are on there way to help, but for now, they said to keep him out of the water, and try to clean the salt out of his wound, so I brought towels soaked in water!" She handed me a cold towel. I walked over to his leg, and sat down. I don't want to hurt him.. "Ikuto, I'm sorry." I mumbled again, and lightly dabbed the jelly fish sting, and noticed how bulgey and red the sting now was.

The jelly fish werent so huge, so that was good. But I don't know what breed the jelly's were, and people have died before from these little cold bloods.

Ikuto..

Ikuto.. please.. be okay..

Please…

Yaya jumped up, having an einstein moment.

"I know a way to heal jellyfish stings!" She stated. I smiled. "How?" she blushed madly. "Well, this sounds weird but, I heard somewhere that if you pee-" "EW!" I screeched, but trying to not let my husband wake up, who seconds before had fallen asleep, trying to relax.

"I am not doing that! The medics will be here any second!" I stated, furiously blushing.

"It was just an idea….." Yaya mumbled, blubbing through her lips.

After the medics arrived, I went in the car with them to the hospital.

It seemed like something little, just a sting on the leg. Like a bee.

But if you were allergic to a bee, you could die. Depending on the jellyfish, you could die.

When we finally barged into the hospital doors, and Ikuto was sent into a medic room, thaey gave him some medicine ot make him recopooperate, but it took a long time.

I went from pacing back and forth, to sitting down, to rocking back ad forth againtst the wall, and then I sat on the floor.

Please, be ok.

I had my knees holding my head up, in fear if they werent there I would have collapsed onto the flor.

"Is he ok?" I asked.

"He's just fine. We gave him medicine." He walked from the door, allowing me to proceed past.

I walked quick.

He was laying in the bed, and his eyes were closed.

Ikuto..

"Amu-" He whispered in his sleep. It jolted me awake. "don't.. leave- me… please!"

I looked at him with enlarged eyes. Why would I leave him?

"I..love-you.."

"I love you to." I whispered, eyes smalling, as I held his hand. I knew that I he at the moment was in deep sleep.. having nightmares. I still wanted him to know, how I felt for him. It was true.

I held his palm tighter. I really do love you Ikuto.. I'm just caught in a hard place… where every other night I'm married to another person, your brother acutally. Yeah, like I'd tell him that, then Id be in the hospital, the mental one.

I held his hand. "A-mu." He opened his eyes, looking at me as he progressed seeing more.

"I-kuto!" I hugged him, just so happy to see him awake.

He's okay smart pants…..

"Amu. Are you ok?" I almost slpped him on the spot, but instead I realeased the hug, and sat up. "what were you thinking?" he looked shocked, as he blinked.

"What-?" I turned to stare at him directly. "Why did you quit easter for me? Why did you get shocked for me? You could have bee killed!"

"Could have." Is all I got out of him.

I fellt my fists ball up at my sides.

"you idiot! " I felt tears running out my eyes. They were reluctant to stop, but they just couldn't stay behind a happy face forever.. could they?

"What are you talking about?" he chuckled.

Why are you laughing at me.

"I gave My job at easter up because I loved you! I als ogot stung because It would sting more to see you stung!" he looked me in the eye, sitting up.

"Why do you doubt my love for you Amu? I have always loved you, and that will never change." He opened his arms up, to hug me. I accepted that, since I was wuaking and I desired so insanely to be held at this time by the one I loved.

Wait..

I know I loved him, but I've never cried for Tadase. Never. I've only cried for… Ikuto!

When Ikuto told Tadase against me..

When ikutu was being controlled, I cried for his pain.

When Ikuto was ther, being controlled, I hugged him and cried..

When Ikuto left, I felt the tears well up..

When he never came back.. I cried. A LOT.

When ikuto risked possibly his life for me, I cried.

Huh. That's pretty reflective Amu.

I looked into the hospitalized male's eyes, I felt the tears stream again. "Ikuto, you dum-" He cut me off by kissing me, and I held it.

My mouth melted to his. Like chocolate on a summer day. My mouth held there, moving like a rythym with his, as he joined me and him together in a passionate kiss, a french one to be exact.

(a/n: I know you love me right now ;) )

As we separated for breath. He took his arm away from the bottom of my waist, and wiped the droplets of salty water that leaked from my eyes off of my porcelin cheeks.

"you shouldn't cry. I'm fine." He whispered, eyes making bubbles in my own.

I hugged him, face in his chest. "Just pelase don't scare me.. And another thing."

I looked him angrily in the eye. "Don't ever doubt that I love you, ok?" He watched me wide eyed as I continued. "I love you, and please don't doubt anything, because I'm here for you, and I never want to leave your side. I really Just want to spend the rest of my life with you, so don't ever think otherwise, alrighty?" I had more tears bubbling out, but I pushed the away with my quaking finger. He still stared at me with owl eyes. He seemeed shocked.

That was funny. He's shocked that I love him back.

Looked down, slightly embarrased, but he held my head up.

He help my lips with his, and bringing e into another passionate kiss. I layed back with him and breathed.

As I fell asleep with his arm around me, I thought of what I had said, and can you guess this,

Everything I said today to Ikuto was pure truth.
