I DONT OWN SHUGO CHARA


UN PERFECT LOVE:


Chapter 9- Hand in hand

(Amu pov)

We all sat there lost in conversation. Ikuto was pretty good ill give him that. Everything was going great, that is until Rima decided she had to yet again leave Ikuto and myself alone. To be honest I was nervous shaking my head I calmed down Ikuto was walking Rima to her car while I waited inside. Rima trust me with her boyfriend, I wont betray her Ill be Ikuto's friend but nothing more. I was so engrossed in my thoughts I had failed to notice Ikuto take his seat once again. That is until his husky voice penetrated my thoughts. "Amu you doing alright?" I jumped slightly then nodded. "You know if I didn't know how much you wanted to rape me id say you didn't like being alone with me." I nearly spit my soda out, that is until I got an idea. "Oh absolutely, I mean after all you have the looks of a god why wouldn't I want to rape you." I said with a wink. His jaw dropped for a moment before he chuckled. "Oh so the little kitten wants to play." Uh oh what did I get myself into? Damn it! Blushing I just ignored his comment and his fits of laughter. After we left we walked to the park once again talking about nothing or anything. He confessed he played the violin, and that it's what he is really good at. I smiled telling him I played piano but wasn't that great at it. "Ya but you're an awesome singer. Is that what you want to be...I mean for your career?" I shook my head, at one time it was. "Nah, that's just for fun." I replied after a moment. "Then what do you wanna be?" I thought for a second before replying, "Don't laugh OK..." He nodded then I continued, "I guess I want to be allot of things ... I haven't actually decided yet." I finished lamely. He nodded, "That's normal actually high school and the first year of college is where you start to get an idea of what you wish to be." I smiled glad he didn't judge me or laugh. I stares off at the clouds passing by.

(Ikuto pov)

I watched as she stared at the sky in wonder. I admired how even going through an abusive relationship she could still seem so Innocent. Some of her hair blew into her face and out of instinct I moved it tucking it behind her ear. She turned to face me, her large honey eyes staring at me. I was lost in them for a moment, before I somehow managed to break the stare. It was moments like that I was scared of, in moments like that I had to fight to keep control. The feelings I had for her grew each moment I saw her. My friends seemed to think I just hung around Amu cause Rima. When in truth I stayed with Rima so I could be near Amu. Rima didn't even seem that interested in me anymore. "Amu... can I ask you something?" She once again returned her focus to me. As if to say go on, But for some reason the words wouldn't come out. "Oh...um do you like...like chocolate ice cream!" I blurted out after struggling through my words. "Um ya why?" I just shrugged in reply mentally yelling at myself. Why couldn't I just ask? Oh ya because then she would hate me duh! How many times must I remind myself I have a girlfriend! I couldn't help but frown down at my fidgeting hands. I felt a small hand being placed on top of mines. I looked over to see Amu staring at me worry evident in her eyes, I faked a smile but her worry didn't vanish. "Ikuto you don't need to pretend." She looked at me her eyes honest her lips pressed into a thin line of determination. I grasped her hand in mine gently giving it a small squeeze. I stared at are hands that seemed to fit perfectly together. I noted the way my heart beat was faster just from little skin contact with her. I smiled a real smile and after a moment she returned the smile. Even if I couldn't be with her as long as I could remain close to her even as friends I would do it to make her happy. We did not remove are hands from each others and this time we both glanced at the clouds. A wave of melancholy passed through me, yet when I felt Amu gently squeeze my hand it lessened. I starred at her face once more before glancing back at the clouds. They seemed more beautiful than they had seconds ago. It didn't seem like only a few minutes but instead felt like hours. Yet when I glanced at my clock I had found only 10 minutes had passed. I didn't think anything could ruin the comfortable mood that surrounded us. That is until I heard an annoying voice, that made me glare. "Ikuto! It's been so long since I've seen you." Saya had came over latching herself to my arm. Amu slowly slid her hand from mines, I felt saddened by this. For a moment I thought I saw sadness cross her face also, only it was too quick to tell. "Saya can you get your hands off." I said it softly but in a tone that said I meant it. She stared at me and slowly slipped her hands off of me. "But Ikuto-koi I thought you said you like when I cling to you. Especially when we would..." She didn't get to finish cause to my surprise Amu slapped her, "Look slut I don't care who you are but Ikuto is dating Rima now. So keep your filthy hands and mouth and ugly face away from my friends boyfriend." I had to fight to not laugh as Saya ran away yelling threats at Amu and me. I turned to thank Amu only to find her walking away. "Peace see you at school." She waved over her shoulder not even looking back as she said it. I sighed as I sank back down on the bench leaning my back against the table. One second I feel close to her the next she with drawls.

(Rima pov)

I almost jumped out of the bush to strangle that bitch! Instead to my luck I didn't have to Amu dealt with her. But the scene had ruined the moment Ikuto and Amu had shared. They both seem so confused around each other, maybe I need to take it a notch up. Tomorrow ill dump Ikuto and straight up tell him to go for Amu. Before it's too late. I swear do I have to do everything! I snuck back the way I had came from. Heading home I stared at the setting sun it was beautiful.

(Amu pov)

I had to leave as fast as I could, to hide the jealousy and pang of hurt I had felt from Saya's words. I don't know why I was upset...After all he was a player. I hope for Rima's sake he isn't anymore. I starred at the setting sun it signaled the end of a day and the promise of a new one. When my phone went off signaling I had a text I almost ignored it seeing it was from Tadase only something told me to read it. So I did and my eyes widened when my phone signaled I had a picture message I opened it and dropped my phone on the bed. There was a picture of Ikuto holding my hand on the bench. The message had said to meet him tomorrow in the morning alone. I knew what his plans were already, he was planing to black mail me with the picture. I stared at the stars wondering what it is I should do. I'm sure if I explained what had happened to Rima she would understand...right? But what if she won't maybe I should go see Tadase...
