Skyl3r-M0on: Well here is chapter 7 my beauties!
Amu: About time! Who the hell is Saaya!
Skyl3r-M0on: You'll find out in this chapter so calm your tits gurl!
Ikuto: Can this not be happening to me right now -.-
Skyl3r-M0on: Naw this is fun for me...NOW ENJOY!
Ikuto had no idea how he was going to explain everything to Amu. He hadn't spoken to her since Yoru had came to drop off her notebook and that had been about 5 hours ago, and right now he was in his room staring up at the ceiling with a blank look on his face. She hadn't come out of her room since and Ikuto just didn't know what to do.
She had refused to speak to him when he knocked on her door earlier to tell her that dinner was ready. All she said was that she wasn't hungry before once again going silent. Ikuto wasn't a fool though, he knew that she just didn't want to be around him, and by the sound of her voice, he could tell that she had been crying. Her voice had sounded rough and scratchy and he felt like shit.
He was behind those tears and he wanted to beat himself up for it. Rolling over, he groaned into his pillow.
"What the hell am I gonna do?" He mumbled. "I don't want to lose her over her finding out about my screwed up life."
He felt weird talking to himself but his head wasn't in the right place at the moment.
"Where's Ikuto?" Rima asked as they sat in a cafe. "Usually he has lunch with us."
Amu shrugged and sipped her coffee. "I don't know, haven't seen him since last night."
Earlier this morning she got up early and walked to the nearest gas station to get some for her bike before coming back and filling it up. She wanted to be out of the house before Ikuto woke up since she didn't want to talk to him yet. He really hurt her last night and instead of sleeping, she mostly cried with her door locked and her music blaring. She actually hadn't been in her room in a while since she usually slept int Ikuto'. Hell some of her clothes were even in his closet.
"Are you guys still having your movie night tonight?" Rima asked. "Cause Nagi wanted to know if we could come since he forgot to call in for our dinner reservations. He wanted to make up for it, and wanted us all to just hang out together."
"I'm not sure," Amu told her. "I'll call you later tonight to confirm with you."
"Okay that's fine with me."
They continued having their lunch together, chatting about this and that. Amu made sure to avoid the topic of Ikuto.
"Holy crap I'm exhausted." Amu groaned and she slipped off her shoes and carried her back into her room. Placing the bag onto her bed, she went to take a shower but stopped outside Ikuto' door when she heard him speaking.
"Yeah you can come by in like an hour." He said. She assumed he was on the phone, but she had no idea who he was talking to. "No she's not home yet, I think she's at a friends house so we'll have time."
She felt her hand clench and turned back into her room, making sure to lock it.
Is he really cheating on me? She thought laying down on her bed with her head buried in the pillows. So many thoughts ran through her head and before she knew it an hour had passed.
I could either stay in here for who know how long, She said to herself or I could go out there and see who this girl is.
She didn't know what to do at this point. A huge part of her wanted to believe that he wasn't cheating on her. That this girl was just actually just a friend of his, but she realized. She knew a lot of his friends as well and she had never met a girl named Saaya.
That was when anger started to boil in her as her mind screamed. Why the hell was he so pissed about Yoru when he was with some girl I didn't even know either! What a freaking hypocrite!
Making her decision, she stormed out of her room to confront Ikuto about all this. When she walked out she saw a girl with her arm wrapped around Ikuto in a hug and she scowled.
"So is this your way of explaining?" She said aloud, grabbing both of their attention. Ikuto immediately let go of the girl and faced Amu.
"Amu, I thought you were at Rima's" He said in a frantic.
"I got home like an hour ago." She told him "Now answer my question, because the last time I caught you with another girl, you had Utau eating you face like a hungry mutt."
"Baby it's nothing like that." He said. "This is Saaya. She's a childhood friend of mine that I haven't seen in years."
"Then why didn't you just tell me the truth." She asked him. "I trust you more than anyone, but when you lie to me can you really blame me for being scared that you've found someone else."
"Baby that would never happen." He said softly while walking closer to her. "I mean I was hoping you didn't find out, but she was helping pick something out for your birthday coming up. That's why I was shopping with her yesterday."
"He's not lying!" Saaya spoke up. "He's never really had a long term relationship and he really wanted to buy you the perfect gift. I grew up with him, he's like my brother for god sake
Amu blushed and looked down at her feet in embarrassment. "I feel so stupid oh my god." She looked back up at him and sighed, "I'm so sorry I doubted you, I'll let you and Saaya catch up, I'm gonna go to Rima's."
He grinned and kissed her cheek. "Okay, I'll call later, have fun."
She nodded and gave kissed him once more before heading out. On the way to Rima's she gave her a call to warn her of her arrival.
"Oh I have so much to tell you when I get to your place." Amu said to Rima on the phone.
"What about?" Rima asked. Over the last few days she'd been completely clueless as to what's been happening between Amu and Ikuto.
"I'll tell you when I get there." Amu hopped onto her bike. "See you soon, bye."
Rima didn't get to say goodbye before Amu hung up and put her helmet on. In no time at all she was speeding out of the parking lot and was on her way to her best friends place.
"You're shitting me right!" Rima exclaimed. Amu had just finished explaining what had happened after the party. About how Yoru helped her and how Ikuto was upset about her accepting a ride from a stranger.
"No," Amu said. "and it only get freakier." She sunk back into the couch after grabbing some fries off the table. "Well then after class yesterday Ikuto was supposed to pick me up for work but he wasn't there, but guess who was?"
Rima gasped. "Oh my god Yoru! How did he know you were there?"
"I don't even know." She shrugged. "But he gave me a ride to work and holy crap Rima his car is perfect. So anyways, when I got to work I called Ikuto and asked him why he didn't pick me up but he wouldn't tell me. He just said something came up so I brushed it off, but he brought up Yoru again and I just tried to avoid the conversation and hung up on him."
"I bet he was pissed." Rima laughed.
"You bet he was." Amu laughed along. "He was giving me the silent treatment the whole way back home and we had this huger fight but then we were fine, but yet again, Yoru has the worst timing in the world."
"He came to your house?"
Amu nodded and went on about how Ikuto was pissed off to see him. She explained how they were brothers and that's why they looked so much alike. The whole time Rima sat looking shocked with every piece of information that was being told to her.
"Wait, so he was with some other girl!"Rima yelled in disbelief.
"Yep," Amu answered. "but I just found out before coming here, that she was his childhood friend and they grew up together. Like a part of me is still worried but I'm a little more okay with it. He also told me that she was helping him pick out a birthday present for me."
"Aw, I want to think that's so cute, but I'm still worried about this Saaya girl." Rima said.
"I know," Amu sighed. "but I trust him."
She never thought she's ever say that again. It had been so long since she genuinely trusted anyone so it was a bug deal to her.
"Wow, but I must say, you guys are perfect for each other." Rima said honestly. "I've never seen so much chemistry between two people ever."
Amu laughed. "Yeah well, I have. So how are you and Nagi, the love of your life for so many years."
Rima's face slightly dropped as she shrugged. "I don't know, I'm a little confused right now."
"What do you mean?"
"Well I don't know," She sighed. "I have been in love with him for like almost three years now, and I still love him, really I do. But I kind of feel like he doesn't love me back."
"What? He says he loves you all the time!" Amu felt really confused at what her friend was going on about. She had never seen two people more in love than those two and she just couldn't believe that Nagi didn't love her.
"It's not so much as him telling me he loves me," She explained. "it's how he never shows it at times. Like he hasn't even asked me to move in yet." She sighed and let her head rest against the back of the couch. "I don't know, maybe I'm thing about it too much."
"You are," Amu told her. "Nagi loves you so much. I mean doesn't he spend most of his time here anyways? Shouldn't that mean something. Maybe he wants to ask, but doesn't know how. Eventually you should talk about it with him."
Rima groaned. "I guess you're right. Thanks Amu. So are we still having the movie night?"
Amu shrugged. "Still not sure, never got the chance to ask Ikuto before leaving."
"I still can't believe you just left him in there with her." Rima said with a shake of her head.
"Well we both know that if he tried anything, I'd have you take care of him for me" Amu chuckled.
"Fair enough," Rima laughed. "I mean Nagi still gets scared of me sometimes. I've got him mad pussy-whipped."
The both laughed and went on with their night before calling Ikuto to see if movie night was still on. He told them to come in about 20 minutes and before long Nagi, Rima, Ikuto, and Amu were pretty much having a double date while watching movies.
Ikuto felt his phone vibrate and glanced at it to check the number. He didn't recognize it but got up it answer it anyways. "One second babe, I'll be back." He said disentangling himself from Amu and going into the hall way for some privacy.
"Hello?" He answered.
"Ikuto my boy, it's been far too long." The voice on the other line said.
"What the hell do you want." Ikuto growled as he heard his fathers voice speak to him.
"I'm sure Yoru has already warned you," His dad said. "I was just wanted to let you know I'm passing by tomorrow so we can talk."
"There's nothing to talk about." Ikuto said firmly. "I don't want to get back in the business, I don't deal anymore so just forget it. I got out for a reason, and I'm not going back."
"I don't think you're getting this!" His dad yelled. "You're my son, and anyone born into my family is destined to deal, whether they like it or not! If you think that Yoru hasn't tried to get out of this before then you're wrong. If you ever get a chance, check his back and you'll see how luck you were that you got past the guards that night."
Ikuto gulped as his dad continued. "So this is your last chance Ikuto. Come back, or I will have to hunt you down."
Skyl3r-M0on: So what did you guys think? Amu and Ikuto both seem to have daddy issues as you can see
Ikuto: Jesus tell me about it, I never want to see him again!
Amu: Wait why? What's going on? What are you dealing?!
Ikuto: Uh...cookies? I sold cookies for a living, but I quite...it was too much pressure you know
Skyl3r-M0on: Wow that's almost as funny as the time I heard this guy tell people that hot pepperoni fell on his neck as a way to get people to stop asking him where he got the hickeys from. Holy crap that still makes me laugh to this day.
Ikuto: You go to one messed up school...
Skyl3r-M0on: *sigh* Tell me about it...
Amu: R&R
Skyl3r-M0on: Also I'll be updating Pranks, Pranks, and More Prank, really soon for those of you waiting, I've just been caught up with some stuff
