He bit my ear! The jerk bit my fricken ear! So of course I did what any sensible person would do I blushed like crazy and threw that stupid cat off of the couch. I now sit on the couch watching Bleach using his back as a foot rest. He starts to move so I lift up one leg and drop my foot on his head so that he won't see me blush. If he does it will only make him do it more. He rubs his head. "Ow!" He lifts his head against my attempts to get him to keep it down and smirks when he sees me blush. Of course I blush even deeper after my blush had even cooled down some, so it wasn't all that red, but it was still enough to make him smirk. Dang Cat! "Aw did I make my little princess blush?" (I know it's strawberry but this is a fan fiction and therefore different the anime and manga both of witch I have watched and read) I turn around on the couch, abandoning both him and incidentally my Bleach too. "Got you to stop paying attention."

JERK! I held back the blush that was threatening to mark itself on my cheeks and placed a cat-like smirk on my face, rivaling even Ikuto's in the intentions hidden behind it. I turned back around and Ikuto and I were face-to-face, him being really tall and my vertically-challengedness. I got so close that I could feel his soft breathing on my lips and spoke. "And what would the winner of your little bet want as his reward for winning?" He smiled a genuine smile for half a millisecond before his signature smirk decorated his face once again. I was happy to see the smile and sad to see it gone, but I knew that I would have a chance to see it once again. I didn't plan on leaving him anytime soon so it will happen again…eventually.

He grabbed my chin and turned my head, then he brushed away my hair and leaned into my neck. I thought that he was just going to kiss me and get it over with but no, my punishment was going to hast a bit longer than that. He just stopped about an inch away from my neck. He was just breathing in and out, letting his breath tickle my neck on the exhale. I was only able to suppress a half of the blush coming up. I didn't look like a tomato, but I was still a little pink. When he saw the light pinkness of my neck I could feel him chuckling. When he had stopped laughing he closed in and just let his lips rest on my neck.

He didn't even kiss me or anything, just let his lips and nose press into the skin of my neck. He inhaled deeply, taking in what I can only imagine to be my scent. He lifted his hands, but again surprised me when instead of wrapping them around my waist like normal, he put them around my back and played with my hair behind my back. Twisting it around his fingers and running his fingers through thick chunks of my sakura-colored hair. I sighed. I love it when people play with my hair and he knows it. When we were younger, Utau would always do my hair when I was depressed because it always made me smile and start humming soft lullabies to myself. I began to hum (ironically enough) Chase Coy's Lullaby (I don't own). I wrapped my arms around Ikuto's shoulders. I smiled a genuine smile that I didn't even have to think about. I couldn't tell you how long we stayed there, but it was somewhere around and hour and a half because when I looked at the T.V. to gage the time Alice was on (I had auto tuned it). "Ikuto," I whispered, hoping he would hear me and realize that we had to move at some point. He let out a deep sigh and I released him. He took a few strands of my hair from behind my back as he pulled his hands away. He held the hair loosely so it lightly slipped out of his hand as he slowly dragged it back to his side. Before the strands fell out of his hand completely he brought them to his lips and inhaled the scent of my hair, then let them drop completely.

"Are you hungry? I know that you probably didn't eat much at lunch, when you're nervous, you're appetite almost completely disappears." I nodded and he stood and walked to the kitchen. My eyes followed him there, still slightly glazed over. When I came back to myself about a minute later, I followed him into the kitchen. He was standing at the stove, with his back relaxed. I couldn't see what he was cooking, so I came up behind him, put my hand on his shoulders and lifted myself on my toes, just barely being able to glace over his broad shoulder enough to see the egg, hash brown, and peppers in the pan. My eyes lit up like fire works when I say the spicy Velveeta (I do not own) cheese. I moved a little away from him because I know that he gets upset when I yell like a fan girl in his sensitive ears. "BREAKFAST BURITOS KYA!" Apparently I wasn't far enough away because he still covered his ears and winced. "I know you like them and I know how you like them." I was jumping up and down, switching from glancing over one shoulder to the other. I could practically taste his annoyance level go up by about one hundred percent, but I didn't care. It was breakfast burritos made just the way I like them! He grabbed the spatula and hit me in the head over his shoulder. "Ow! Ikuto, not nice," I said while pouting. All I got in response was a growl. I slowly inched back until I was a good distance away incase he snapped.

After about three more minutes of cooking and putting everything in the tortillas he grabbed a plate and held it out in front of me, but when I reached for it, he held it up so high that my height-challenged little self couldn't reach it. I put my hands on my hips and glared up at him. He laughed and leaned down to my height. "Give me a 'thank you'," he said. I giggled and gave him a quick peck on the nose and then smiled afterwards. I thought I might be seeing things, but I thought I saw a tad bit of pink on his cheeks. He lowered the plate and handed it to me. I grabbed it happily and went over to the dining room table to sit down. I placed to plate down began to dig into the six burritos in front of me. Ikuto leant his head on his hand and just stared at me while I ate like a whirlwind.

When I was done I was certain that I had some egg on my face, but I didn't really care. I got up and carried my plate to the sink. As I was washing the dish, Ikuto came up behind me and licked my cheek. "That was good, I should have made some for myself." I pouted without looking away from what I was doing. As I was drying the dish, I said, "I could have gotten that myself, you know?" I put the plate in the cabinet and turned around. He was right there behind me. He put his hands on either side of me and leant in, using the counter as his support. I got up on my tip-toes and pecked him on the lips. He smiled a genuine smile and lifted me up onto the counter and leaned down to kiss me. It was just a light peck at first, but then it deepened. He had his hands on me hips and I had my hands around his neck, tangling my fingers in his hair. As the kiss went on his hands moved up, dragging my tank top with them when he was just at the base of my bra and his tongue had successfully dominated my mouth, despite my valiant fight, we heard someone clearing their throats. We parted, both of us panting for breath and he turned his head. I reddened when I saw Utau and Kukai standing in the middle of the kitchen. Utau looked a little more than slightly uncomfortable and Kukai looked perfectly at ease, he smiled and said, "Yeah Ikuto, get some!" Kukai, bless his soul, was granted the talent of being a loud mouth with a small intellect. Utau smacked him upside the head without looking away from Ikuto, me, my exposed stomach, and Ikuto's hands resting in just a place that they were covering up the very base of my bra.

Utau turned around and said, "Whatever, come on Kukai," but I could see that her ears were beat red. I chose to ignore that fact and so did everyone else, choosing their lives over a chance at a good tease. Even Kukai wasn't dumb enough to step on that landmine. When they were out of the room I glanced down at Ikuto's hands, still where they were before. He had turned his attention back to me so I looked up at him and then back down at his hands a few times, hinting like crazy. He just moved his hands to my sides and lifted me off the counter. He then, slowly, very slowly, removed his hands and put them back at his sides. I pulled my shirt down and grabbed his hand. "Come on, Alice is still on." I giggled as I dragged him into the living room. He sat down on the couch and, as expected, pulled me down onto his lap, but because I expected it I didn't fight it. I just snuggled into his chest and commenced watching my wonderful little show, placed in a wonderful little land.

After Alice and two episodes of InuYasha, I was asleep and he wasn't far behind me.

Amu's dream:

I was back in the field that I was in before, but it wasn't night anymore, the field was lit up like a warm summer day in the middle of July. The sun was glinting off of the violets, that had been freshly covered in dew. At the edges of the field, in front of the tree lines were bunches of midnight blue roses. I inhaled their combined sent, but something was off about them they didn't smell like roses and violets they smelled like chlorine and ocean breezes, but it wasn't a bad combination, it smelled good.

All the light in the field went out and all of the sudden the violets had turned to wheat and the blue roses had turned red. A smell invaded my nostrils. It was strong. The smell itself wasn't bad it smelled like clean cotton and snow, but it was it's intensity that was so startling and suffocating. I gasped for air as these sights and this smell only made me crave the ones before it all the more. I tried to call out for help, at this point I would except them from anyone, but it didn't work. My voice wouldn't work. I fell to my knees and clawed at the ground. I pulled up dirt with my fingernails and ripped the grass up by the roots. I left scars on the earth, just like scars had been left on me. The blood red roses, his eyes. The golden wheat, his hair. Clean cotton and freshly fallen snow, then scent that used to comfort me, but now bring me nothing but pain.

I pressed my head to the grass and squeezed my eyes shut, but the smell just got stronger and stronger. My eyes shot open and I sucked in a lungful of air that seemed to have been tainted by some unseen poison. My eyes were blurry from tear, but I saw them. A small violet and a thorny blue rose sitting right beside my hand that was stretched out above my head, contorted in pain. I reached for the rose and I didn't even feel the pain of the thorns passing through the pale skin of my fingers. When I had the rose back to my face I reached out with my other hand and grasped the stem of the violet and pulled. The stem snapped easily and I dragged it back to the rose and myself. This process took a dreadfully long time and the scent was still increasing in its intensity, so I got even slower with each passing moment.

With both in front of my face I inhaled as deeply as I could. I choked on the poisonous air but I had smelled it and that was all it had taken. Ocean breezes and chlorine. Ikuto's scent. Violets, Ikuto's eyes. Midnight blue roses, Ikuto's hair. I sighed as the scent of snow and clean cotton faded, replaced by the much less harsh, chlorine and ocean breezes. I inhaled the scent and immediately felt safe. My muscles relaxed and I lay in the grass breathing in the wonderful smell that had saved me.

End Amu's dream

My eyes blinked open and I saw black and smelt the smell that had saved me in my dream. I could feel a hand on the small of my back and a hand right between my shoulder blades. My hands were gripping the blackness in my vision. I looked up and saw midnight blue hair and eyes that, if they were open, would be violet like the flower that was laying beside my hand. The ones that saved my life. I snuggled deeper into his black shirt, between my pale hands and inhaled chlorine (summer swimming pools) and ocean breezes (walks on the beach and midnight). I love summer and I love Ikuto. I closed my eyes and dreamt about cookies and brownies and Bleach and the smell of fresh summer chlorine. Ikuto…
