Okay! So, sorry if this is late, I have homework and I am tired =-=

Anyways… I still need to figure out how to end this… I won't be happy if it ends badly… ¬¬

*sigh* I should probably figure it out soon…

XD

OMG Guess what? Okay, so my mom found this giant catipillarzilla in our yard and it made a cocoon… ON THE GROUND! OMG I hope it's not dead! XD Ahahaha sorry, random thought! XD

Ah! My internet just shut off! And now I just turned back on! XD Random! Aha

Okay, okay… I will let you read now! ;) Review please! ^-^

Edit: lol I wrote this like 3 weeks ago, and now the catapillarzilla is in a chrysalis thing, and since it was so fat, it made one in the ground… Not sure if it is alive or not… let's hope so! XD =D

*Flash back*

My eyes lay open in shock.

I-interrogation? What does he mean by that?

I sighed into my pillow again and let out a frustrated groan. I then heard laughter coming from Ikuto's room.

I glared out the door in the direction of Ikuto's room.

"You know, I could always come in now!" he called out to me, feeling my piercing stare on him, this made my heart skip a beat and I dashed under the covers.

There is no way I am getting back to sleep tonight…

*End of Flash back*

Bingo!

I sighed and rolled on to my other side, but no matter what position I was in, I couldn't even get close to falling asleep. Today's events had just been so insane, I couldn't even register it all, so my mind was so pre occupied trying to understand it, so I couldn't go to sleep. I just looked up at the ceiling waiting to get even the slightest bit tired, and after 20 minutes, I wasn't sleepy, and my eyes were burning. Aggravated, I smothered my face into my pillow and just lay on my face, and it actually crossed my mind for a second, that if I try to suffocate myself, I might be able to make myself faint, but I knew that would probably end badly. Giving up on that plan, I just rolled back onto my back and closed my eyes, defeated.

My eyes lazily fluttered open and I saw that the light coming from my window had woken me up. I didn't actually remember falling asleep, but, at least I wasn't staring around my room all night. My stomach suddenly did a flip as I realized what was going to happen today. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. I had no idea how I was going to handle Ikuto. Absolutely no clue. I sat up and swung my legs over the edge of my bed. Instead of getting up, I just buried my face in my hands, at the end of my rope. I glanced over at the clock on the night table, reading 8:00am, meaning Ikuto was probably already awake, or waking up soon, giving me no chance to get out of the house, although, he probably didn't even go to sleep last night… Well, maybe Utau could at least give me more time and talk with Ikuto- but then I remember, Utau had left last night leaving in the house with Ikuto. Alone. Oh. God. I. am so. Screwed!

"Ugh!…" I groaned loudly, but then immediately covered my mouth, listening for any other noises.

There was nothing. I was sort of surprised, I figured Ikuto would run into my room by now and question me. I sat at the edge of my bed, confused. I really, really, didn't want to go out there, but I also really, really, had to use the bathroom… Well, it was only down the hall… But that would also be plenty of time for him to snatch me up…

I waited for about another ten minutes, and after not hearing anything, I couldn't take it anymore.

I slowly got off of my bed and tip-toed to the door. I slowly pushed the knob in to unlock it, and waited a few seconds to see if there was anyone outside my door. With only silence I took one more deep breath and flung the door open and ran to the bathroom and immediately shut the door, but quietly.

I was shocked. I couldn't believe he wasn't waiting outside in the hall to ambush me.

I leaned against the door and slid to the ground, letting out a sigh on the way. I put my face in my hands once again. I couldn't just dart from room to room for the rest of my life, I couldn't hide this from Ikuto forever, because eventually, even if I avoided him, Utau would definitely tell him. But even if that was true, I still couldn't even think of what would happen if I went out there. I slowly got up and ran my fingers through my hair and sighed.

(A/N You guys don't really need me to go into Amu's bathroom time do you? XD Good)

I washed my hands and just let the water run threw my finger tips. I cupped my hands together and splashed my face with water, hoping to knock some sense into myself. What would I do once I went outside? What would he do once I left the safety of the bathroom? This whole thing… Augh! Why didn't I just realize that I wasn't dreaming last night! Seriously! I can't control myself in my dreams, and they fell different, so why was I so stupid to have said those things to Ikuto! I pulled at my hair, frustrated. I heard my stomach grumble and knew that I had to eat, and that I couldn't put it off for much longer. I mean, I guess, I could just go down stairs and eat breakfast, and try to act like nothing happen, I highly doubt that would work, but it was the only chance I could think of if I wanted to put this off.

I hesitantly put my hand on the door knob, and just left it there for a few minutes. I could do this, I just have act cool, like Ikuto, he is always so good at handling these situations, he never panics, he just goes straight to the source…

Isn't it kind of strange though, that Ikuto hasn't come to interrogate me yet… He has never been the kind to wait, he just goes for it, but what could that mean…? There was know way that I was actually dreaming last night, it was way to real…

I gripped the handle tightly in my frustration, I turned it and the door was open. I was exposed. I stood there, frozen, waiting for something to happen. My eyes were wide open as I glanced in every direction, waiting. Nothing happened. All I could hear was my heartbeat slowly decreasing. Was this a trap? Was he going to wait until I was defenseless, and then go in for the kill…? I would never know unless I did something, so I took one step out of the bathroom.

Nothing. I took one more step to I was a full two feet away from the safety of the bathroom, that gave Ikuto plenty of time to ninja over hear and corner me, but there was still nothing.

I looked around, skeptical, but then slowly advance towards the stairs silently.

Every time I walked past a door, open or closed, I braced for him to jump out of one of them and get me, but by the time I got to the top of the stairway, there was no sign of him. I knew I shouldn't be letting my guard down, but I slowly started to relax as I walked down the stairs.

I heard a loud yawn and froze. I had know idea where it had come from, and I had no idea on what I should do, so I just waited, and then I saw something move.

Ikuto was lying down on the couch downstairs, and it looked like he was just starting to wake up. My heart was beating quickly as I waited for him to do something.

I watched him sit up and when he began to get up I ducked. I was squatting on the stairs and I listen to him get up, walk a little bit, and then I heard him plop back down on the couch. I heard static, and then people talking. Did he… turn on the T.V.? What the heck! Why is he turning on the T.V. at a time like this!

I got off the ground and started walking down the stairs, and when I was almost to the bottom, I had know idea what I was doing and I abruptly stopped, seeing if he would turn around, and he didn't. I sighed internally, slightly relieved, and slightly… annoyed?

I finished walking down the stairs and walked into the kitchen, extremely confused as to what was going on.

I walked over to the pantry, and got on my tip-toes to open it and I was planning on grabbing a pop tart or something, but I was not planning that the cabinet door would be so squeaky. I jumped at it's loudness, and I knew Ikuto had to have heard, and he did. I watched him, panicking, as he got off the couch and turned around. My heart skipped a beat when I made eye contact with him. I starred at him, wide eyed, waiting for something to happen. He just looked at me groggily, then, as if something clicked he said:

"Oh! It's you," He was acting as if he didn't know who I was.

"U-u-umm, y-yeah, who did you th-think it was?" I asked, extremely panicked.

"Oh, I wasn't exactly sure… I didn't get that much sleep last night." he told me. "Why did you look so shocked a second ago" he asked me.

"O-o-oh! U-um, I, I… I didn't know you were there, so you s-scared me!" I told him, giving he a terrible excuse.

"Oh… Sorry…" he said.

"N-no It's fine!" I told him. I was being way to jumpy. I turned back to the pantry, my face was heating up. Why wasn't he saying anything!

I reached up to grab a pop tart, but is was just out of my reach. I sighed, and shakily climbed onto the counter to grab one. I stuck my hand in he box and started pulling one out.

"Hey, can you get me one, too" Ikuto asked. His abrupt question startled me and I jumped, hitting my head on the top of the cabinet, and I felt myself slipping off the counter.

Crap! One of these situations could not happen now!

But of course it did.

Before I could hit the floor, I felt myself land is Ikuto's protective arms. I kept my eyes shut tight for a moment, but I hesitantly opened them and sure enough, Ikuto was staring at me with eyes full of concern, but his smirk almost over powered them.

"What would you do with out me?" he asked me, smirking, apparently back to teasing me, and this made me blush more. I blinked, very uncomfortable to be in his arms, because if I was in his arms, I knew there was no way I could get out. I answered his question, hoping he would release me.

"I would probably be dead" I told him. He chuckled and then, just as I hoped for, he released me. I sighed in relief.

"You're such a klutz…" he told me as he bent down to pick up the pop tarts that had come crashing down with me. I glared at him.

"You know, I can feel you glaring at me," he told me.

The moment from last night popped into my head, when I had been glaring at him threw the door, and I immediately looked away.

He set two packages of pop tarts on the counter and but the rest back up in the cupboard.

"Here," he said and tossed one of them at me, and I caught it, still worried that at any moment this whole situation could turn around.

"Wow, you actually caught something, for once." he said, and I turned back to him, about to protest, but he had already started walking back to the couch. I sighed… Same as always…

I stood in the middle of the kitchen, not exactly knowing what to do. Do I go sit down with Ikuto? Or eat in the kitchen? Or-

"Are you going to come and sit down or what?" Ikuto asked me from the couch.

My heart skipped another beat.

"Uh, y-yeah!" I called out to him, not knowing what I was doing.

I walked over to the couch and stood in front of it, eyeing. Wait for ropes or chains to come out and bind me to it.

"What are you doing?" Ikuto raised an eyebrow at me. I blinked and without answering him, I sat down, I wasn't sitting right next to him, but I wasn't far away from him, maybe a foot away.

I nibbled on my pop tart, nervous. What was going to happen? Is he plotting? So many thoughts and ideas were running threw my mind right now, I wasn't even paying attention to anything. Even though the T.V. was on, it still felt like I was surrounded in and awkward atmosphere.

"Listen, Amu, about last night," Ikuto started.

I jumped out of my seat. My eyes were wide open, my heart was racing and my face was bright red. Was he finally going to interrogate me?

"What's wrong with you?" he asked me, slightly worried.

"Uh, n-nothing! I- I thought I saw a spider!" I spit out quickly, the only excuse that came to my head.

"Are you still embarrassed about last night?" he asked me, and a smirk appeared across his face.

"Why would I be embarrassed? I mean, I was kind of upset and hurt that you were so cold to me, but I did the same thing so I shouldn't really have been like that…" I let my sentence fade out.

Ikuto got up off the couch and looked at me, crossing his arms.

"That's not what I was talking about." he told, smirking more.

"W-what…?" I asked, so very confused. What was he talking about? Last night, in my room, that was dream…

"Well," he started, putting one hand on his chin, as if he was trying to remember something "if I recall, you did tell me that you loved." he said, smirking more and more.

I just looked at him, overwhelmed.

"You just came out there and said it to me, I never knew you had become so open" he told me, reminding me of last night.

Ikuto slowly began walking towards me, and every step he took forward, I went back one, and I knew I was slowly being cornered.

"W-what are you talking about?" I tried to cover myself up. I was completely turned around.

Last night was not a dream. Ikuto being Ikuto decided to embarrass me as much as he could before I spilled the truth. This whole time, he had known about last night, and just pretended it never happened to drive me crazy, and for me to become defenseless, just as I thought he would, but I never once thought he would use this strategy.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about, there is absolutely no way you are getting out of this one, Amu…" Ikuto told me, smirking evilly…

I knew there was no way out of this. I had known that since he walked out of my room last night. I waited for it, braced for it. When it didn't come on full blast, that was when I fell into his trap.

He slowly continued walking towards me, and I just continued to back away from him, but just one of his steps covered two of mine easily, and I knew if I didn't hit a wall soon, he would catch up to me.

Then I finally felt my back make contact with a wall and I flinched, knowing that this was the end, and I was done for.

I let out a sigh of defeat and looked at the ground, watching as Ikuto's feet closed in. When he was only a few steps away, I closed my eyes, not wanting to look at him. I heard him place one arm on one side of me, and his other arm on the other side, blocking off my only chance of escape.

I took a deep breath, and still looking at the ground, I opened my eyes slightly. I

"E-everything that happened last night…" I started speaking, feeling the blood rush up to my face, as well as Ikuto's smirk increasing with every word I spoke, "was real, wasn't it?" I said in a whisper. I waited for him to respond, my limbs were shaking because I was so nervous, even though I knew what he would say.

"Bingo…"

Oh! I loved writing that chapter! 3 Oh it was so much fun! I am so sorry for the late release, I could come up with anything and I still don't know how I am going to end this, but it is obviously going to be ending so, whether it be the next chapter I release or a few more, who knows! *o*

I actually wrote two different versions of this chapter, the first one, Ikuto was going to remember last night, but I could really come up with anything good except for when Ikuto knocked on her door and said "good morning sunshine" but that didn't really fit, so then this idea popped into my head that Ikuto would remember last night, but would let Amu think he didn't and then trap her, mahahaha! XD Anyways… Don't know when the next chapter will be out, I have three big English projects do on Friday that I have been procrastinating XD And I am going to be busy next weekend soooo… Who knows! XD

Please review! And Happy Halloween!
