Recap:
"Oh, makes sense" Miki nodded continuing to fold my laundry
"You would be the type to do that" Kukai glared
I laughed nervously "I would, wouldn't I?"
Everybody nodded except me, I sighed "let's go downstairs"
Everybody continued nodded again and I sweatdropped "You guys are impossible"
I open up the door and my dad is... RIGHT. THERE!

x-x-x-x
(Back to the story)
"What was going on in here?" He glared at me
I fell down on the ground from surprise and screeched "U-Um, we were just talking"
"The rest of your friends already went home. Amu, we have to do some work tonight, it's really important. You should spend the night over with a friend, we have to go, talk it out" My mom interrupted my dad from getting mad at me
I quickly nodded and gulped. They left the room but didn't close the door. I sat there in shock, that rememberable glare you get when your dad thinks you're dating a boy isn't pretty. Kukai helped me up as he smiled at me "You can spend the night at my house, alright?"
I smiled back as I stared into those beautiful emerald eyes of his, I nodded and blushed a little. I looked back at Utau who gave me an approving nod with an angelic smile... but I immediately knew it was fake, she never smiles like that and WOULD never... NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS has she ever truly smile like that besides... it's too cheesey. I smiled back at her going along with it and looked back at Kukai and nodded "Alright"
My dad rushed back in the room panting "Amu... we have to go out... of town for 5... weeks... stay with a friend... until we arrive back. O-Okay, Amu-chan?"
I nod "Yes, father"
He quickly nodded and rushed out of my room, Kukai grinned at me "Looks like you'll be staying at my play for a few weeks"
I sigh "Looking forward to it" I note sarcastically
He laughs and slings and arm around my shoulder "So am I, Amu-chan, so am I. By the way, we don't have a guest bedroom, you'll have to stay in my room"
Me, Miki, and Utau all sweatdrop together and ask "W-What!?" in unison
Kukai grins and laughs again "You heard me, now get to packin'. We leave in a couple minute, my brother's gonna pick us up"
'HE ALREADY CALLED ONE OF HIS BROTHRS!? AM I REALLY GONNA HAVE TO SLEEP IN THE SAME ROOM AS HIM!? IS HE, ALL OF SUDDEN, ACTING PERVERTED OR IS THIS JUST... KUKAI BEING KUKAI?! I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE! KILL ME NOW!' I think but showing no emotion on my face whatsoever
"Now get to packin'!" He shooes us off one more time and left the room
I sweatdropped "Am I really gonna have to sleep in the same room as this maniac? FOR 5 WEEKS!?"
"If it'll make you feel better, Amu-chan, I can stay there too" Miki offered
"Yeah, right, okay, thanks" I run over to Miki as she helps me pack awesome outfits. She packs a few outfits of mine for her too since... I have awesome clothes. Utau just smiled at us "I'll watch the dog, for the weeks that you're gone, for you"
I nodded "Thanks, Utau, you're a good friend"
"Well, you're my best friend" She replied as we hugged
"Awh"
"Bye"
"Bye"
"We don't have time for your crappy mushy lovey moments of friendship right now!" Daichi entered the room and interrupted us "Unkai's here, Kukai"
"That's our cue! Come on, Amu" Kukai calls out to me walking out of the room
I just finish packing and put my bag over my shoulder "Come on, Miki"
"Let's go guys, by the way, Miki's gonna have to sleep in my room" Daichi told us as we walked out
Me and Miki both sweatdropped and Miki asks "W-What?"
"YOU'RE LUCKY! I HAVE TO SLEEP WITH KUKAI!" I complain
Kukai and Daichi snicker and stop at a big van stopped out front "..."
"Amu, get in the back" I heard Kukai say as he puts an arm around my neck
"O-Okay" I stutter as I climb in the back, Kukai climbs in after me and sits down next to me in the back seat
I grab my phone and pull it out of my pocket just as it starts ringing "Hello" "Yeah?" "Why?" "Oooookay, but do I need to come right now?" "Uh-huh" everybody stares at me and my conversation "But-" "Fine" "FINE!" "Yes" "Okay bye"
"What was that about?" Kukai slung his arm over my shoulder again
"I'd thank you not to touch me right now" I shot hima cold glare
"U-Uh" He doesn't know what to say, he pulled away his arm immediately and asked that question again "What was that about?"
"It's personal, so I don't wanna talk about it" I sigh with a sad smile
He puts his arm back around my shoulder "Alrighty"
"Just step on it!" Miki got impatient
"Alright, alright! Gosh, bossy!" Unkai sighed
x-x-x-x
About 30 minutes later
"Are we there yet?" Miki whined yet again
Everybody groaned "NO!" in unison including me
She huffed crossing her arms over her chest and sunk in her seat. I giggled "Miki, you're so clueless"
She laughed "You think so?"
"Why don't you smile more often?" Kukai asked me
"What?"
"Why don't you smile more often?"
"What do you mean?" I gave him a confused expression
"Why. Don't. You. Smile. More. Often?" he asked but still not losing his patience
"Why do you wanna know?" I asked him, this time getting the point of the question
"You look cuter when you're smiling is all" He smiles
"Please don't lie" I sunk in my seat with a serious face
I have to pretend I don't like him, otherwise I blush... ALOT. If I kept blushign my face would've stayed red FOREVER! That's how much I blush. He gave me a confused expression "What'cha mean?"
"Please don't lie to me, especially to my face. I've been told I was the most ugliest girl on the planet before, I just don't want you to sugarcoat the cold, hard truth. So I'll ask you this once, are you lying to me?" I sat up straight putting my feet up on the seat hugging my knees nearly crying at the memory of being bullied so bad that I wanted to cry... no, that I wanted to die
He shook his head and smiled at me once again "No, I have no reason to"
I look up and almost everyone is staring at me, that is, except Unkai. Even Miki was staring at me "Amu-chan, it's still too soon, isn't it?"
Tears begin to fall down my face onto my knee as I nod "Y-Yes"
"Then don't talk about it, think about kittens or candy" MIki suggested
I put on a sad smile and faintly laughed "You're right, I shouldn't be thinking of that right now" I slowly raised my hand about to wipe off my tears when a hand stopped me "W-What?"
I looked up at Kukai who was just smiling at me, he put his hand on my cheek, and I was finally blushing! He wiped off the tears himself "Miki's right, I don't but what happened but you should push it out of your mind, just enjoy yourself"
I nodded but then realized we were there. Miki began to whine again "Are we there yet?"
"Actually, yes" Unkai answered this time while opening the side doors. Miki hopped out and layed on the sand then I realized we were at a beach house, DID THEY MOVE OR SOMETHING?!
"I bet your wondering if we moved" Kukai stepped out behind me and slung his arm over my shoulder AGAIN! "No, we didn't move, we're just staying here for the 5 weeks, consider it a vacation. It's summer vacation anyway, don't worry about school" He said 'school' in a mocking tone
I giggled and started rapidly laughing, I fell to the floor and held my stomach to stop it from hurting. Everybody stared at me like I was crazy... nah, I'm not crazy, I'm insane. I bet you're wondering what the difference is... the answer's simple! THEIR IS NONE! HAHAHA!
"Aha!" Kukai finally got that I was laughing at... him! He started laughing aswell putting a hand on my back but crouching down to my height "Let's head inside" He stands up straight and holds out a hand for me to take so he can help me up
I accept his hand and he pulls me up but I lose my balance and fall into him, YET AGAIN! He tried to keep me from falling but, instead, he fell on top of me! With his hands on either side of my head keeping himself up. I was blushing profusely while Kukai was too! I could tell!
x-x-x-x
Kukai's POV:
She accepts me hand and I pull her up but she loses her balance and falls into me, YET AGAIN! I tried to keep her from falling but, instead, I fell on top of her! With my hands on either side of her head keeping myself up, she was blushing profusely while I was too! Omg, she can tell!
I saw Daichi pull out a camra and snap out picture, our faces were inches apart. I could feel her warm breath running down my spine. She smelled like fresh strawberries, I stared into her honey golden eyes until she cleared her throat "U-Um, K-Kukai?" she stuttered. I looked at her confused "What is it?"
"K-Kukai, y-you can"When are you gonna get off of her, you pervert?" Miki interrupted Amu
We both blushed, I got off of her and helped her up, she thanks me with a little bow and ran inside the house. I'm just gonna have to carry in her bags, which wasn't very many. She had like 2 bags... I brought them inside and sat them in my room. Amu walked in a moment later with her face still beat red "Hey, Kukai, I had a question to ask you"
"What is it?" I asked sounding a bit annoyed
It was quiet for about 10 minutes until,
"Would you like to go out with me?... Later?" She eventually asked me
I was so taken aback from what she just said that I must've not answered in time, she continued "But I'm not forcing you to, you... you can say no, if you want. It's totally fine with me, I guess"
"N-No, Amu-cha-"No, it's alright, I get it. I told you not to sugarcoat it, it's alright, I-I swear!" she forcd a smile that was obviously fake
"W-Wait hear me out, I-"Kukai, you don't want to hang out with me, I'm totally cool with it" And with that she walked out of the room closing the door tightly behind her. I clenched my fist "You idiot! You never let me speak! Why do girls always come to random conclusions without hearing sides first?!"
I punched the wall, Rento came running in "What's the problem, dude!? You only do that when you're upset"
AHH! He's my brother, why not be honest to him? "A girl I like just asked me out, I didn't answer fast enough so she assumed I didn't want to, she kept interrupting me and coming to random conclusions! I bet she hates me now!"
"Wow"
"Yeahh"
"Wanna go talk to her?"
"Nah, she has to sleep in here anyway, I'll let her take some time"
"Suit yourself"
"Bye"
"Bye" he closes the door tightly behind him, I punch the wall again and lay down on my bed on my back staring at my ceiling. I wanted to say YES! But she wouldn't allow me to! AGH! That stupid girl! AGHHHHH!
x-x-x-x
Later that night
I heard a faint knock on my door, Amu let herself in still forcing a sad smile thats obviously fake "It's time for dinner"
"Okay, I'll be down in a minute" I sigh
She looks down at the ground "Okay" she mutters
"Look, Amu, about earlier..."No, it's alright, I already told you it's okay. You don't need to explain, I get it"
"Please, Amu! I need to explain!" I pleaded
"Okay, if you must. Explain it to me in a bit" she said still forcing that smile
"B-"Please, just come down for dinner" She interrupts me again
I groan "Okay"
We walk downstairs together but she's purposely trying to walk a few steps ahead of me, she's trying to avoid me! I knew it! We walk to the table, I sit in a chair and she sits on the exact oppposite side right across from me as Rento lays down our food in front of the table "Dig in"
I start eating as I look up, Amu didn't touch her food, she's just staring into space looking down at her food. I have to talk to her, whether it's in front of everybody or not "Amu, listen"
Everybody looked at me except Amu who kept her head down "Kukai, it's aright, you don't need to apologize"
"Amu, I really need to explain, in front of everybody or not, it needs to be said!"Kukai! I told you to explain it later! I don't wanna hear it. To be honest, I never wanted to hear it, either now or later"
"NO! Amu! Why don't you just listen?!"Because I don't need to!" She answered almost immediately
I shot up slamming my hands on the table and my chair fell as I pushed it back "Amu! Listen!"
Everybody was just staring at our conversation. Amu did the exact same thing I did "NO! Kukai! I don't want to hear it! I told you it's alright! No need to explain yourself!"
"But I meant to say yes!" I finally blurt out. She looked shocked "Then what took you so long to answer last time!?"
"BECAUSE YOU WOULDN'T LET ME TALK!" I start getting angry
She glares at me "BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR EXCUSES, I SAID IT WAS COOL BUT YOU INSISTED ON EXPLAINING, I GOT FED UP WITH IT!"
"IT'S NOT AN EXCUSE! I ACTUALLY WANTED TO SAY YES! IT TOOK ME LONG TO ANSWER BECAUSE I WAS SHOCKED THAT YOU ASKED ME!" I yell
She yells back "I DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR IT THEN, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT NOW, AND I DON'T EVER WANT TO HEAR IS IN THE FUTURE!"
"THEN I'M NOT THE ONE MAKING EXCUSES NOW! WHY DID YOU EVEN ASK ME IN THE FIRST PLACE WHEN ITS CLEAR YOU DIDN'T MEAN IT?" I Kept blurting out stuff and I couldn't stop
She was shocked
x-x-x-x
Amu's POV:
"THEN I'M NOT THE ONE MAKING EXCUSES NOW! WHY DID YOU EVEN ASK ME IN THE FIRST PLACE WHEN IT CLEAR YOU DIDN'T MEAN IT?!" He asked with an angered tone
I was shocked... WHAT?! I DIDN'T MEAN IT?! "IF I DIDN'T MEAN IT, I WOULDN'T HAVE ASKED YOU!"
He stood there with an angered expression on his face but he wasn't talking, I sighed "I'm going to bed"
I walk to the stairs and put my hand on the railing then turn around to Kukai with a truly sincere expression "Kukai, I truly did mean it" then I run upstairs
x-x-x-x
Kukai's POV:
She walked to the stairs and put her hand on the railing then turned around to face me with a truly sincere expression "Kukai, I truly did mean it" then she runs upstairs
I was left there in shock... "What?"
Everybody stared at me "What was that about?" Rento finally asked
"It's just about what I told you earlier. She wouldn't listen to me, no reasoning involved, she always just assumes she's right" I explain
"But if she truly meant it, wouldn't she wait for you to expain it properly?" Rento asked confused
That got me thinking "I don't know, she's very confusing"
"Well, do you like her?" Miki got my attention but I just answer an "U-Uh"
"Well?" She was getting impatient
"I-I don't know" I mutter as I put my empty
"Let's put it this way, how does she make you feel when you're n her presence?" Miki started questioning me
That's a good question, how does she make me feel? Hmmm, how does really make me feel? I don't know, I never thought about it before "She makes me feel happy, she makes me laugh, I don't even care if she doesn't love me, as long as she never goes away... I'm good. If she gets a boyfried or even gets freakin' married, I won't care because she'll never leave alone in the dust. I know her better than that, she is smart, pretty, and trustworthy, sh-she's... she's perfect"
Everybody smiled at my answer except Miki who was staring at me "You answered well... but if she makes you feel that way, would you really wanna fight with her? Maybe you should makeup" she suggested
"FINE" I gave in "Be back in a bit"
I ran upstairs and knock on... MY. OWN. DOOR! I heard a faint 'come in' so I just came and stared at Amu on the bed, her smile started creeping when she saw me. Awww she was wearing cute little kitten pajamas
"Am I finally getting to you?" I ask teasingly
"No! You just knocked on your own door, I find that funny!" She started giggling "So... why're you in here?"
"Just to ask a simple question. If you truly meant that question then why didn't you wait for me to explain properly?" I blurt out before she can say anything else
"B-Because I didn't want to go through the pain of being rejected... AGAIN" she sighs
OH MY GOSH! THAT MAKES SOOOO MUCH SENSE! "But I wasn't going to reject you"
Her facial expression changed from laughing to shocked "W-What?"
"I was going to say yes, I would love to go out with you but you didn't give me the time" I sigh
She was really shocked but a small smile was visible "W-What? U-Uh, that's cheesiest line I've ever heard" she laughed
"Still true" I mutter "Okay, so, where are you gonna sleep tonight?"
"I thought I'd just sleep in the bed" She shrugged
Isn't that my line? "So am I, I guess"
"You perv" she walks up to me and hits me on the chest multiple times
"Oi! Amu, that hurts" I complain
She hugs me "I'll sleep on the floor I guess"
"N-No, you can sleep in the bed, we have an air matress for me-"Kukai... thank you" She interrupted me and hugged me tighter
"What are you hugging me for?" I asked confused
"G-Goodbye"she hugged me tighter for a second then let waves to me and shoves her hands in her pockets "D-Don't wait up"
"Wait, where are you going?" I ask worriedly
"Bye" She grabs her coat and runs downstairs. I follow her down.
"Where are you going, Amu-chan?" Miki asked but a little concerned
She lazily waves to her "I'll be back around... 5:00 am, I'll be here by then"
"5:00am!?" I ask a little upset
"Yes, I'll be here by then, please don't w-worry about me, I'll be fine. I swear it!
x-x-x-x
Time skip: 5:00am in the morning
Nobody went to bed yet, we stayed up all night waiting for Amu to come back. Even though she told us to not worry, we can't stop worrying!
The door opens and everybody rushes upstairs pretending to sleep even I did. Amu opened the door but I hopped under the covers just in time pretending to snore. Amu sits on the covers and sighs "Why would easter not want me to tell Kukai what I'm doing? Why am I working for these idiots anyway? Why would they want me to do something so horrible!?" she whispers to herself as she lays down on the bed
'What was she doing out there? Was it... THAT bad? Then I'm gonna have to beat it out of her one way or another, whatever it takes!' I think to myself and then shot up sitting up straight
Amu flinches as I tackle her so she can't move "What were you talking about?" I ask bluntly
I stare into his honey golden eyes (that were obvious red at the moment cause she's Dia), she looked so pretty like that. I lean in a little with an intimidating look on my face, her face heats up as I lean in closer, our faces were inches apart. It was quiet for about 3 minutes until,
"I-I thought you were asleep" She asks nervously
"I-I wasn't so you thought wrong" I mimic her stutter
She feels a tick on the back of her head as she pushes me off blushing a little "P-Pervert" she mutters
"Excuse me?" I stare at her as I get off of the ground and climb back on the bed at her feet
"You pervert!" She says again but with more confidence
"Oh? HA! You think I'm a pervert! How about I invite the guys over for the 5 weeks you're here? Then choose who's the pervy one! Think of it like a game, and nobody ever needs to know until the 5 weeks are up. But their is one rule" I stare into her eyes with a challenging smirk
She smirks back "Let's hear it"
"You have to act cute, and adorable like you want them to be perverted. That includes revealing clothes, winks every now and then, an adorable smile. And getting awkwardly close to them all. Got it!?" I ask still smirking
She sweatdrops but shakes her head really fast and smirks "You're on"
I take out my phone and calls them
x-x-x-x
"Okay, they're coming tomorrow" I laugh
"Boy, this is gonna be fun!" She smirks
x-x-x-x
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH! A GAME! A GAME! GAME! GAME! GAME!
Ikuto: No need to get worked up over a game *Sweatdrops*
Laura: That's easy for you to say, my family doesn't let me play games
Kukai: Not even sports?
Laura: Nope, I can't play soccer, basketball, softball, baseball, field hockey, or even Volleyball. I'M NOT EVEN ALLOWED TO SWIM!
Kukai: Oh, you poor girl
Amu: You must be so lonely
Laura: Well, I have my games on the computer
Amu: Like I said... oh so lonely
Laura: IT'S NOT MY FAULT I'M ONLY ALLOWED TO PLAY VIRTUAL GAMES!
Utau: Oh no, of course it isn't *Sarcasm*
Laura: *Feels a tick on the back of my head* *Aura changes* What did you just say?
Everybody: Nothing *whistles*
Yoru: Laura doesn't own Shugo Chara ~nya
