Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Shugo Chara!

~*Eternity With You*~

A human falling in love with an angel, huh?

Is that possible, I wonder... I don't really care about Utau's challenge for now,all I need to do for now is focus on the confusing part. I can't talk to anyone about this, since no one would believe me anyway... Although, I'm starting to have doubts myself.

'As long as you think I am.'

'What if it was?'

'Who knows...? I wonder...'

The way he speaks all those sentences... Though he acts like he was just kidding at that time, I still have this weird feeling. What if... he was really lying to me that he was an angel from the start?

Hm...

"Mou! This is so confusing! There's no way Ikuto would really lie to me, right? Right?!"

Suddenly, the door opened and I gasped. My mother was there, and she was grinning evilly. "U-uh... Hey, mom. Ahaha...", I said rubbing my head nervously. My mother chuckled and sat on my bed.

"So~"
"Hm? W-what?"
"The one you're in love with is the new guy, huh? Our neighbour's neighbour."
"How the hell-?!"
"C'mon, you were actually talking to yourself. Haha... So eavesdropping isn't bad at all!"
"... Eavesdropper."
"Thank you~"
"And you're even proud of it...!"
"Of course."
"Argh..."

I slapped my forehead as my mother smirked. "Well, I gotta admit, you're great in choosing guys. He's pretty cool!", she said, her eyes sparkling. I moaned. My mother laughed but, soon looked serious. "But... I can't ensure that wasn't lying... You have to talk to him yourself, Amu-chan. Though... I don't what he lied to you about...", she said, looking at me.

"Oh, no... You already know whom I like, so there's no way I'm gonna tell you this one...!", I said, waving my hand. My mother pouted but sighed, giving up. "Fine, fine..."

...Next Day...

"Amu-chii...!"
"Huh? Y-yaya-chan?"

I looked at Yaya as she ran and hugged my arm. She looked at me then. I was surprised, she was crying. "Wh-what is it...? Why are you crying? And... Where's Kuukai?", I asked her. She let go of me and shook her head. "Ku-Kuukai...! Kuukai yelled at Yaya!!"

"Huh? Why?"
"Yaya-chan doesn't know at all..."
"Hm..."
"Kuukai seemed mad at Yaya-chan..."
"Did you do anything?"
"No! Yaya didn't do anything. Kuukai got mad by himself! Uwaa...!!"

Yaya was doing her project yesterday, and with her classmates... "Who was with you yesterday? I mean... when you were doing your project.", I asked her. Yaya placed a finger on her lip. "Um... Miyuki-chan, Satsuki-kun and Kairi-kun.", she answered me, looking confused. Satsuki and Kairi, huh? Both boys, probably...

There's a possiblity he got jealous. But, still...

"A-Amu-chan...?"
"Huh? Oh... You should eat recess and lunch with your other friends today. I'm going to talk to Souma-san to ask why. Then I'll relay the message unto you."
"Okay..."
"Just trust me, won't you?"

I smiled to her as she sniffled. Then she smiled back, though it seemed kinda forced. "Yes!"

...Recess...

"Yo, Souma-san! Knew you'd be here..."

I sat next to him. He was laying on his back and staring at the sky with an enigmatic expression. "Yo, Hinamori...", he greeted back, but not in an energetic way like he usually does... He turned to me and seemed to be trying to look for someone. I raised a brow. "Looking for Yaya?"

He twitched and shook his head. "No way.", he said, then he turned away again.

"Why are you mad at her? It's not like she did anything, right?"
"I'm not."
"Sheesh... She was crying when she came to me, you know. She said you yelled at her..."

Kuukai looked at me, surprised. "She was crying?", he asked, worried. Or was it guilt...?

"Yeah... She seemed so miserable so I told her I'd talk to you. You know, to fix problems up..."
"Tch... Like I said, you might worsen the situation. This is our problem, not yours."
"Yeah, but you're also making it worse!! You're not helping at all, you know that? I might as well give it a shot."
"Urgh..."
"Sigh... Just tell me. I won't tell her, okay?"
"... That boy..."
"Boy? Who?"

So... He is jealous. I'm right, huh?

He shook his head, irritated. Seems like he's not planning on telling me... Hm... I can fix that!

I stared at him as oddly as I can until he finally gave up, sighing.

"She seemed so confident with that boy... It's the first time I've seen her act like that with a boy other than me. For god's sake, she was clinging to him...! Tch... It's so irritating, and I don't know why."
"Clinging to him? Isn't that normal for Yaya?"
"But... yeah, if you were a girl. But... she never clings on boys except me."
"I see... So, you're jealous?"

Kuukai froze on his spot. I smirked. "Hit the target, didn't I?"

"Urgh... I'm not sure."
"C'mon... You kept saying girls are dense, but you're dense yourself, you know that?!"
"F-fine..."
"Just tell her you're sorry and everything'll be all right."

Kuukai sighed and nodded. I smirked. All right...!

Help friends, check!

Now... Confront Ikuto.

Sigh... I think I'll do that later...

...Lunch...

Sigh... I should've just told Yaya not to eat only recess with me. If I had known that I can fix the problem by recess, I wouldn't have added the word "lunch". Ack... and now I'm all alone in eating lunch. "Sheesh..."

I was walking to the same spot again, just in case Kuukai or Yaya thinks of stopping by.

"Ow! Hey...!", I said when someone bumped into me. I looked at the person and she did the same. It was Utau and she was crying...

Okay, I've had enough seeing people crying. But...

"Ho-Hoshina-san?", I said, reaching out to touch her. She slapped my hand away and continued to run away. "Uh... Hey!"

Soon, she was out of sight. "Huh? Utau crying?", I mumbled to myself. Did something happen? U-um... But it's not my problem anyway...!

I shook my head and shrugged, then I continued walking.

Soon, I reached the place and I sat down, sighing. I can't help but remember Utau's face... Why was she crying, I wonder...

"Amu-chan..."
"Gya...!!"

I looked behind me, shocked (obviously). Ikuto was looking at me. "Wh-what do you want?!", I told him, yelling. "Nothing..."

I sighed and shook my head. At least someone will eat lunch with me. "Hey, Tsukiyomi?"

"Yes?"
"Are you really an angel?"
"As long as you think I am."
"Say it clearly, you're confusing me."
"... It depends."
"Huh? Sheesh... I can't understand you."

I started eating my lunch, not looking at Ikuto anymore. Suddenly, he grabbed my hand and looked at me seriously. "Wh... What...?"

"Do you like me, Amu-chan...?"

At first I stared at him. But, suddenly, it dawned on me. Is this a... confession...?

"I... What are you talking about?!!"
"I'm asking you whether you like me or not. Yes or no?"
"... T-this is too..."
"... Like I said, yes or no?"
"What about you, do you like me?"
"... Yes."

I felt my heart beat fast when he said yes. How can he say that so confidently...?!!

"So? Do you like me or not...?"
"... This is... This is stupid, Ikuto!"
"What...?"
"You're an angel, aren't you?!! What are you... talking about...? Such thing is..."
"... Amu..."
"Such thing is too...!"
"Amu, I'm not an angel."
"E-eh...?"
"I'm not an angel... I lied."

Wh-what is this...?!
