Bender: I would've had this up last night, but the website hates me again!
Ikuto: At least you finally updated -_-
Bender: Sorry Iku-tan...
Chaiu: Lol. Iku-tan.
Bender: O_O
Amu: Who's this?
Bender: My friend Devi...
Ikuto: ...Well why's she on here?
Bender: Idk. Trying to convice me that I want to rape -beep-
Chaiu: Yep -^w^-
Ikuto: WTF!?
Amu: -sighs heavily- Bendercat doesn't own Shugo Chara!
There's no way he's going to win that bet...
AMU'S P.O.V.
I plopped down on the couch in the familyroom. Ikuto's going to look ridiculous at the dance...
"Amu-chan, I think your friends are here." My mom, Midori, called from the livingroom.
"Amu-chii!!! Hurry up!!!"
I ran out of the room to see Rima, Yaya, and Utau standing in the doorway.
"Come on!!! Let's go!!!" Yaya was jumping up and down and clapping her hands.
I laughed, and followed them to Rima's car.
OoOoOoOoOoO
We all got of the car in the mall parking lot and walked up to it, chatting and ignoring everyone's stares.
"So Yaya, when'd you start dating Tadaga-se! I meant Tadase!" Utau started.
She shrugged. "Yaya doesn't know. Doesn't matter anyway. Yaya dumped Tada-tan."
We all stopped walking and gaped at her.
"W-why!?" I nearly yelled.
"Cause Yaya likes Kai-tan!" (A/N: Kairi.)
We all sighed heavily and shook our heads at our immature little friend.
"So where should we go first?" Rima asked quietly, looking at all the stores in front of us.
Utau shrugged. "What about Shinigami?" (A/N: I actually own that! :D My little made-up store 3)
We all nodded in agreement and walked to the very back of the mall.
"Amu-chii! I see your perfect costume!!!" Yaya squealed and went running up to the rack of costumes. She pulled out a bear costume.
"Yaya...that would look ridiculous." I laughed.
I dragged her away from the Kids' section and to the Juniors'.
"Oi! Rima! What about this?" Utau asked, holding up an army brat costume.
"No."
"Oh come on! At least try it on!"
Rima sighed heavily but took the costume and walked over to the dressing room.
We all waited just outside the door, our ears pressed to the it just in case she said something about the costume. All we heard was some shuffling then a click, and the door hit us in the heads. All of us, except for Rima who inflicted(!) the injury on us, groaned heavily and fell to the floor, holding our dying brain cells.
I was the first to look up and see her costume.
"Rima! Oh my god! So kawaii!"
Rima blushed slightly and looked down at herself.
"Who's going next?" Rima mumbled and looked down at the others.
"Yaya will!" Yaya jumped up and raised her hand. "Yaya wants..." She looked around us and grabbed something off the shelf and ran into the dressing room. After a minute, and trust me, we checked, she threw the door open and came out wearing a yellow and black striped shirt down to the top of her legs, a black ruffled mini-skirt, black leggings, black ballet flats, sparkly gold antenneas, and big yellow wings. "Yaya wants this one!!!"
We all sweatdropped. "U-um...Utau your turn..." I murmered and watched Yaya as she tried to fly with her fake wings. "Yaya! It's not gonna happen! The wings are not real!!!"
"Yaya don't care!" She puffed her cheeks and jumped off a chair.
"Um, Amu, I think the last of Utau's brain cells died in the line of duty..." Rima jabbed her thumb in Utau's direction.
I couldn't help but laugh when i saw her curled up on the floor holding her head.
"Shuddap! Amu! Find your damn costume already!"
I stared at the racks of costumes before me. I don't want to be something that someone else will be...I want to be different.
"Amu-chii should be a puppet!!!"
"Three words!" Utau held up three fingers and lowered one at each word. "What the hell?"
"Yeah! Amu-chii should be that one puppet with the strings!"
"...You mean a marionette?" I asked.
Yaya nodded vigirously, causing her head bobbles (A/N: I spelled the a-word once, I don't wanna do it again...) bob.
I nodded, bobblesless..., and searched the racks for a dress I could use. I felt someone tap my shoulder.
"Here Amu. Try this." Utau said and held up a black and white dress. (A/N: Don't wanna describe it so there'll be a pic of it on my profile)
"Nice!" I grinned and took the dress to the dressing room. "You better have a costume by the time I come out Utau!" I called through the closed door.
I stripped my clothes and slipped the sotume over my head and looked in the mirror. Nice...
I walked out and saw Utau was missing.
"Utau-tan found one!!! But she says not to tell Amu-chii what it is!"
I pouted and glared at the door. Utau walked out, costume in hand, shielding it from me.
"Fine. Be that way." I childishly turned my head.
We all left the store, and they dropped me off at my house.
"Amu-chan! What costume did you get?"
I threw the bag to her and plopped down on the couch for the second time today.
"Onee-chan! Onee-chan look!"
I looked over to see Ami standing on top of her signature box wearing her costume. She was a candy corn witch this year. (A/N: Again, too lazy, link on profile XD)
I clapped boredly. There's nothing to do...
Ring ring."Yeah?"
"Amu! Prepare yourself!" Utau's panicked voice could be heard from across the room.
"For what?"
"Ikuto's coming over to meet your parents!""What!?" I screeched and ran over to lock the front door. "Not happening!" I put all my weight on the front door. "No one is getting through this door without me knowing!"
"...Amu I love you and all, (A/N: Friends of course!) but you're not all that strong.""...You're right...I'm screwed." I muttered and slid down the door.
"Good luck. Bye." I swear I could hear her smirking.
"Gee thanks!" I said with as much sarcasm as possible and hung up the phone.
"Something wrong Amu-chan?"
"Hm? Nope. Nothing at all." I grinned and dug my heels in the floor, just in case she tried to move me.
Ding dong.
"Excuse me Amu-chan." My mom smiled and tried to open the door. "Amu...move."
I groaned heavily, but did as I was told.
My mom opened the door, and I swear everything was moving in slow motion.
"Hello. Can I help you?" My mother asked sweetly, completely unaware that she was ruining me.
"Is Amu home?" Oh sure, he acts normal around my mom!
"She's right here." My mom opened the door further and pointed at the floor.
Ikuto smirked and extended his hand towards me. I merely stared at it, then stood up on my own. That didn't stop him from grabbing my hand anyway.
"Come on. We need to rehearse the dance."
I groaned. "But we still have another week!" I whined.
His smirk grew as he dragged me to the school.
At School
"Amu-chii!!!" Yaya ran up and glomped me.
"Mrs. Capulet! Release your daughter!"
Yaya pouted but walked back to where she was standing.
"Now where's Mr. Capulet!?"
That's pretty much how dance rehearsel went. Same as every other rehearsel minus the dancing...and Ikuto twirling me around over and over again just cause he knew it'd make me dizzy.
"Ikuto! Stop! Ikuto! Stop! Ikuto! For the love of god stop!" I yelled when he wouldn't stop twirling me.
"Juliet! Stop yelling at Romeo!"
"Kukai! Stop stepping on my foot!" Utau yelled from the other side of the stage.
"I will when you learn to watch where you're stepping! The guy is suppose to lead you know!" He yelled back.
"Then be a man and freakin lead!"
"Let me lead then!"
"Well just take the lead and stop letting me take it!"
"Well-!"
"Shuddap you two!" Rima yelled.
"Ikuto if you don't stop spinning me I'm going to puke stupid!"
"Then close your eyes are something."
"Just stop spinning me!"
"But it's strangely fun making you dizzy."
"Ikuto! Stop being-!"
"FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S GOOD AND HOLY IN THIS WORLD! EVERYONE SHUT UP!!!" The director yelled at the top of her lungs. "Rehearsel over! Practice at home with your partner!"
I groaned heavily. Why do we have to dance again?
The Dance (I'm really lazy tonight XD)
"Now for the cast of our school production of Romeo and Juliet will be performing a formal dance for you all!" Someone announced over the microphone.
I had gone as a marionette, Rima an army-brat, Yaya a bee, Ikuto a puppet master, he got second to last in the bet and had to match my costume..., Nagi was a pirate, Kairi was forced into being a vampire by Yaya, Utau dressed up as a goddess-shocking isn't it?--and Kukai lost the bet, so he ahd to dress up as a banana...don't ask. I have weird friends okay?
We did our dance without Utau and Kukai trying to kill each other, so I'd call it a success. Too bad I tripped and caused Ikuto to fall under me...then everyone acted like we planned it and ended the dance at that.
"It's finally over..." Rima muttered and glared daggers at the director.
"Come on Rima-chan, it wasn't that bad." Nagi put a hand on her shoulder and tried to calm the flames forming in her eyes.
"Shuddap..." She turned her glare on Nagi, and walked off.
"Scary..." I muttered, and noticed Ikuto was missing. "Ikuto?"
"I saw him go outside." Kukai said and pointed at the gym's doors.
"Thanks." I nodded and ran towards the doors. It's not as fun without him teasing me. Oh shut up...and stop grinning!
I heard something come from the janitor's closet and opened it slowly, afraid that someone booby-trapped it.
My eyes started stinging when I saw what was happening in front of me...Saaya...on top of Ikuto...kissing him... I ran out of the hall, tears streaming down my face, ignoring Ikuto yelling my name.
Screw him! Screw love! Screw everything dammit!
