Kat-chan: Hey, Miyu-chan! Guess what? You forgot to do the disclaimer! Now you're going to get in trouble with the police!
Me: No, I'm not! You are overreacting.
Riku: Well she might not be… I've seen it happen before.
Me: R-really?
Shiori-chan: Yea! And I hope they take you too!
Me: Look I know I went overboard! And I'm sorry. Just don't trash my house again!
Shiori-chan: Fine. I'm sorry.
-Knock Knock- This is the Police! We are looking for Miyuki-chan for not saying the disclaimer! Please come out with your hands up or we will barge our way in.
Me: Oh no! Now what do we do?
Ikuto: Calm down! I know what we can do. –Whispers-
Me: That's a good idea!
Police: We warned you! –bust down the door down- Now where is Miyuki-chan?
Everyone: -Point at Tadase-
Tadase: Hey! What are you doing? Let me go! You'll be hearing from my lawyer!
Me: That was close… But I feel kind of bad…
Ikuto: Don't. He might be able to get through this… maybe. Miyu-chan doesn't own Shugo Chara! This will be hilarious.
Amu walked to school with Ikuto and Tadase as always. When they reached school Tadase did nothing but stay close to Amu. She understood the reason and it was sweet that he was doing that, but didn't they know that she could take care of herself? She managed to steal away from Tadase saying that she was going to the bathroom. As she was walking, she was pulled aside.
"Hey Amu.
"Takuya! What is your problem? You can't be so rough on a girl!"
"I'm sorry. Look I just wanted to apologize if I was scaring you earlier. I just really think that you're pretty and I couldn't control myself."
Amu blushed. "Thank you for the compliment and I accept your apology."
Takuya smiled. "Say, how about I make it up to you by taking you out shopping? I'll buy you anything you want."
Amu looked at him. She didn't want all that stuff he was promising. But she did want to give him the benefit of the doubt. She thought that maybe inside, he was a nice person. "Sure. Of course I will. It sounds like fun."
Takuya's smile grew wider. "Great! So tomorrow. I'll meet you at the mall at 10 o clock in the morning. Don't be late."
Amu nodded and walked off. 'I know this is going to kill me, but I need to keep this a secret from Ikuto.' It was lunch and she walked over to Tadase and Ikuto.
"Hey Amu. What's up? And why do you look like you're committed a horrible crime?"
Amu laughed nervously. "Nothing's wrong. Why would you ask that? Silly Ikuto."
The next day, Amu got up and left the house (after telling Utau that she was leaving). She walked to the mall and saw that Takuya was sitting there waiting for her.
"Hey! Right on time! Good! So where do you want to go first?"
"Um… Why don't we just walk around for now? I mean, it's still pretty early…"
So they did. Amu got to know a little more about Takuya and wasn't having as bad a time as she thought she would. She was even having a time on the border of fun. How was this even possible? And the guilt of hiding this from Ikuto was still eating at her, too. She found herself wishing Ikuto would accept him so they could all have a good time together.
They walked around the mall and stopped in various shops and were having a generally good time. That is until…
"Amu!"
Amu turned around at the familiar voice. And guess what? It seems as though Ikuto had found them. Ikuto was pretty mad by seeing Amu with… with HIM.
"What are you doing here with him?!"
"He apologizing to me for scaring me earlier on in the week. And I thought that I would give him the benefit of the doubt. But now that you're here we can have a lot more fun!" Amu smiled. This time, her smile didn't work on him,
"Enjoy your date without me." Ikuto walked away, not waiting to look around. That definitely busted Amu's bubble. She didn't know what to say, so she couldn't say anything. She just watched him walk of as he had just hurt her beyond repair. Thinking that she was on a date with him? How could he do that! For the rest of the time they were out, Amu never did get back to her old self. She didn't even get half way back to herself.
It was about noon when Amu returned back home. She said hi to Utau and locked herself in her room. Utau knew something was wrong with her darling little sister. She got up and walked over next door.
"Ikuto!" she yelled while banging on the door. "Open up this door right now!"
The door opened, but it was Tadase at the door. "Ikuto won't talk to anyone right now. He's been locked up in his room since he came home from the mall. He's really depressed for some reason."
Utau had a thoughtful look on her face. 'Him too? This must have to do with both of them… Thankfully I know the perfect person who could help this problem!'
Luckily for Utau, Amu's phone was left out on the table in the living room. She quickly looked through the contacts and found just the number she was looking for. Trying to be quiet the whole time, she pressed the send button and whispered into the phone to the person who was on the other end. In a matter of minutes, there was a knock on the door.
"Nagihiko! You're here! Thank goodness!"
Nagihiko smiled. "Just happy to be of service."
Utau walked to Amu's door. "Amu-chan. We have a visitor. Can they come into your room?"
"Who is it?"
Nagihiko leaned to the door. "Hello Amu-chan!"
Amu flung the door open and jumped on him crying and laughing at the same time. "Nagihiko. I'm so glad you're here! I wanted to talk to you!" Amu started crying and staining his shirt. He didn't mind though.
"Come on Amu-chan. Let's talk in your room." Amu just nodded and she continued to cry while Nagihiko waited until she was done. When she could finally talk she told Nagihiko what was wrong.
"Ah I see. So Ikuto thought you were out on a date with a guy that he didn't like. And now he's ignoring you, and won't let you really explain. Well, what if I could talk to him for you?"
Amu looked up at him. "You would do that for me? You're a great friend! Thank you!"
Nagihiko left her room and walked out on the balcony. From there he jumped over to Ikuto's balcony and knocked on the window. Amu saw as Ikuto let Nagihiko in.
"What do you want?"
"Just to talk. Why are you so upset?"
"Why? Because that jerk took Amu out on a date and she didn't even know it. She fell right for his trick. And Amu is my girl. He can't do that with my girl!"
Nagihiko smiled. "You know, Amu is very depressed. She has been doing the same thing you are doing now. She has locked herself in her room and has refused to talk to anyone. She is sad because you won't talk to her. Why not?"
Ikuto took a minute. "Because I'm afraid that she likes that creep. Something tells me that that guy is bad news. Like I know him from long ago. He has some hidden agenda and he is going to use it against me. By using Amu."
Nagihiko laughed. "Do you really think that Amu would be this upset if she really liked that guy. She would most likely still be out with this guy. But right now, she sitting in her room sulking on the verge of tears again."
Ikuto's head snapped up. 'She was crying over me?' Ikuto's head dropped again. "Ugh! I fell like such a jerk now! Do you think she hates me now?"
"No I don't believe so. But I do believe that she might be heartbroken."
Ikuto's eyes widened. He got up and rushed out the door, not stopping to answer Tadase. Nagihiko smiled at the leaving figure. "I guess I will go and visit someone…" And with that he left.
Ikuto knocked on Amu's balcony window. He found he had a knack for jumping pretty long distances as well as heights. Amu looked up, surprise and fear painted on her face. She longed to open the door but she also wanted stay planted in her spot on the floor for she was afraid that he would just yell at her again. But she took the risk just to talk to him. She got up and opened the door.
"Amu. I'm… well… I'm really sorry that I didn't listen to you. I was just too mad to actually listen to you. It's just that guy really eats me up. I'm really sorry."
Amu just stared at him. He was really apologizing. To her. She was just happy that Ikuto was talking to her. And talking to her gently.
"Do you really mean that? You aren't just saying that?"
Ikuto stared directly into her eyes. "I meant every word I said. Can you please forgive me?"
Amu nodded her head. She was so happy. The next day came around and Ikuto saw Takuya. He tried to ignore him but it didn't work.
He walked over to him and grabbed him by the collar. "Look. You stay away from Amu. She's my girl, got it? And I'm not losing her to anyone. So I'm telling you one more time. Stay away from my girl."
Takuya just smirked and Ikuto threw him on the ground to contain himself. He walked away, annoyed.
"Just you wait Ikuto. I'm going to take everything away from you like you did to me."
Shiori-chan: Should we go get Tadase?
Ikuto: He can handle himself… Hahahaha! That was funny! I could never believe that!
Me: Ikuto be serious. I actually feel bad for Tadase a little!
Amu: Me too.
Tadase: -busts through the door- I'm back!
Me: Tadase what happened to you?
Tadase: Nothing that I want to talk about. Whose idea was this? Well?!
Everyone: -Points at Ikuto-
Tadase: I knew it! I'll get you!
Ikuto: and what will you do about it? Cry like the little gay boy you are?
Me: Ain't that a little harsh?
Ikuto: Of course not.
Me and Riku: Please read and review!
Riku: I think we should leave so we don't get arrested for witnessing a murder.
Me: I think you're right. Come on Amu.
Amu: Oh no! Ikuto is already starting to draw blood! Let's get the hell out of here!
Everyone: Bye!
Tadase: Stop you're hurting me!
Ikuto: Then Fight back!
