+.:.Answers.:.+

Okay I had some questions fro the readers and here are your answers.

nab200: I'm not exactly sure if in Amu is afraid of thunder in the real story. And I've also read a lot of fanfics bout it. I just wanted to make it sort of like the OHSHC scene with Haruhi and Tamaki also Haruhi with Hikaru/Kaoru (dunno which of the twins it was ) and Ikuto fell in pain...also yes the characters were OOC. I'm sorry if you didn't like it! Ill improve T.T

Oh and I adjusted the ages of the guardians a little- Ikuto same age as he had always been (15), Other boys are 12 and other girls are the same age.

X)(Night)(X

Amu was ready for bed. She had put her pajamas on and was quite tired. Still she waited for Ikuto in her balcony. Eager to hear him play his violin. Amu smiled at the thought and Ikuto suddenly appeared in front of her "Thinking about me?" Ikuto teased. "Whatever. I really want to hear you play." Amu smiled changing the subject completely. Ikuto played as promised and Amu listened. His notes were perfect and in tune. They weren't as sorrowful as from the last time Amu heard Ikuto play. She was happy and so was he.

X)(Next morning)(X

Amu woke up the birds were singing their songs again and the sun was shining brightly. Amu blushed and smiled as she remembered the events that occurred yesterday. She giggled to herself and started getting ready for school. It was the first time for her to wake up in time for school without her charas' help. Maybe it was because she was extremely happy and her heart was singing with joy just like the birds. She was also a little excited and she didn't know why exactly. Besides her charas were in an early morning meeting with Kiseki as their leader...again like always. Amu had breakfast quickly. She took her books and her bag and left the house. She locked the door securely behind her. She turned only to find Ikuto's face inches apart from hers. Amu stepped back and hit her head on the door. "Ouch. Ikuto stop that!" Amu told Ikuto for the hundredth time not to startle her. "I only came to pick you up like I promised." Ikuto said as he stood up straight (he was bending over a little for Amu's face). "You never promised me anything. And even if you had you could have done it like normal people and not scare me half to death!" Amu said as she got up. "Well as your boyfriend its only a normal thing to do." Ikuto smirked at the word 'boyfriend'. "What startle me?" Amu asked clueless. "No. To pick you up take you home and the things that couples do." Ikuto chuckled at his clueless 'girlfriend'. "Oh! I knew that." Amu laughed "Lets go Ikuto. Or we'll be late for school." Amu smiled. "Koi." Ikuto said calmly. "Okay whatever. Ikuto-koi." Amu blushed at what she said. Ikuto just grinned at her and gave her a peck on the lips.

X)(School)(X

They walked in the school gates hand in hand smiling at each other and talking just like a real and happy newly wed couple. People stared but they didn't care at all. Even Amu who would normally be embarrassed to death was happy and smiling. Rumors started to spread across fast. Fast enough to reach the guardians as they came to class.

Girls were squealing for the couple and crying because they lost the hottest guy that was currently in their school. I say currently because as you can remember Ikuto is not a student there.

They were all throwing questions at Amu and Ikuto. The boys on the other hand, were glaring at Ikuto for stealing Amu. Ikuto didn't care. Amu was his and he wasn't handing her over to anyone. The guardians were shocked, horrified even when they heard this. The Joker of the school Hinamori Amu, who held the Humpty lock, was in a relationship with their enemy who works for Easter, Tsukiyomi Ikuto, who holds the Dumpty key.

They couldn't possibly be expected to believe this. Or accept their relationship. Amu didn't think so either and neither did Ikuto. It would never happen right?

X)(End of School-Guardians Meeting)(X

The bell rang signaling the end of the school day. Amu and Ikuto got up their seats and smiled sweetly at each other.

"Ikuto-koi, want to go to the guardians meeting with me?" Amu said.

"Wouldn't your guardian friends be mad if I did?"

"If they were really my friends then they would understand and would accept you." Amu said confidently. Ikuto was surprised. Normally it was him who would ask and Amu would reject but this time it was the different way around. "Okay if you say so Amu-koi." Amu smiled at his answer and dragged him towards the Royal Gardens.

The guardians were in a line. With sad faces. Ready to throw questions at Amu and warn her about what Ikuto is doing. What they didn't expect was for Amu to come in smiling and holding Ikuto's hand. "Good Afternoon minna-san!" Amu greeted them "I brought Ikuto-koi to join us since the guardians meeting is going to end late today and I didn't want him to wait outside just to take me home." The guardians stared at them wide eyed and mouths agape. "Hinamori-san, so it's true? You are being friendly to this thieving cat?" Tadase said. "Actually I'm officially her boyfriend." Ikuto said. "Tadase-kun, stop calling Ikuto-koi that! You don't know him at all and yet you're all already judging him!" Amu continued. "But Amu-chan we're only trying to protect you." Nadeshiko said. "He's the enemy! He's just using you." Tadase added which made Amu irritated. "I thought that as my friends you would understand. Ikuto-koi is not using me. Why would he? And how about you? Aren't you aren't using me to cleanse x-eggs for you?" Amu was angry now. Kukai and Yaya didn't dare utter a word. "Hotori-kun don't you ever dare talk to me again! After hurting Ikuto so badly yesterday how dare you even speak to me now." Amu grabbed Ikuto's hand and exited the Royal Gardens with tears forming in her eyes. She tried to stop herself from crying but she couldn't bear it. It was painful. Her best friends didn't even try to understand her feelings. All they thought about was their own. Unlike Ikuto. He had always thought of Amu first before thinking of himself. As Amu cried Ikuto comforted her. "It's okay Amu-koi. As long as I have you I don't care if they accept me or not." Amu embraced Ikuto tightly and whispered a soft "Thank you. I love you Ikuto."

Yuri and Haru saw Amu at her current state and ran over to her immediately.

At first they were mad at Ikuto but seeing Amu like this because she loved Ikuto made them think differently. Amu and Ikuto explained what had happened to Yuri and Haru who were extremely angry at the guardians. "How dare they make my best friend cry?" Yuri said "I'm going to find them and get them to their senses." Amu tried to stop her but Haru warned her not to. Haru left Amu and Ikuto alone for some privacy and followed after his sister. At least Amu's real friends understood her and her feelings. Amu was glad at this and so was Ikuto. They had actually accepted him. He couldn't quite believe it at first but got over it soon.

Ikuto took Amu home and stayed with her until she calmed down. Yuri and Haru were still at school though. Probably telling the guardians off.

X)(Haru and Yuri)(X

Yuri stomped towards the Royal Baka's and scolded them badly. "How dare you make Amu cry! How dare you?" Yuri shouted. "We were just trying to protect her." Tadase said wearing a depressed look on his face. "Protect her? Don't you realize you're hurting her by your efforts? If she loves him then you should accept him as Amu's friends!" Yuri was doing all the talking for Amu's side and Tadase for the guardians' side.

"But if it's the only way we can make her realize that what she is doing is wrong!" Tadase reasoned. "How is loving someone wrong? You're not thinking about her feelings at all!" Yuri spat and she wanted to hear no more. She stomped off angrily and Haru followed her not saying a word. He just gave them a 'you should just stay away from now on look'.
