Ai Oboete Imasu ka?~

Ikuto's POV~

Dinner came soon. I had to make it because everyone else was too lazy. Scoundrels.

Everybody sat down, Kukai being the first. Of course, because Kukai just loves food.

Amu sat down and started at her food from the start. After a while, she excused herself from the table and walked upstairs. Kukai had to make the first remark when she was out of ear-shot. "Man, she looked kinda pale. Do you think she's okay?"

I looked at him funny. "I'm sure she's fine. Amu is a strong girl. She's been through much more." I put another fork-full in my mouth. "I mean, really. Maybe she's just tired and wants to get some sleep."

"But still—"

"But still nothing." I ate a piece of pork.

The rest of dinner was quiet. Kukai finished first and waited for Utau because he wanted to walk her home. Everyone left shortly after that.

I put the dishes in the sink, planning to wash them later. I started walking up the steps to my room. I passed Amu's room and I heard footsteps that sounded like running.

I turned around and saw Amu running for the bathroom. And after that I heard a distinct sound like someone throwing up.

That's probably why Amu didn't eat anything.

I rushed back to the bathroom to find Amu crouched down over the toilet, puking her guts up. Not literilly. I went over and held her hair far away from her face. She jumped a little, but then threw up some more.

She finished and she sat up. She looked at me and said, "You really do miss me when I'm not around."

I chuckled and let her hair down. She went to the sink and washed up. We walked downstairs. I sweat-dropped when I got down there because everyone was back.

Seriously, does privacy mean anything these days?

Amu smiled and waved while I started to walk around. "Why are you guys here?" I asked.

"Because we want to be sure that Amu's okay," Utau said.

Amu giggled but then covered her mouth. She started to back away from the group. Concern covered their faces. I ran behind her and quickly pulled her hair back. "It's okay," I whispered, and Amu crouched down and threw up again.

Everybody (excluding me) backed up. Kukai hid behind Utau (Coward) and Rima looked more concerned than anyone else.

Amu finished and a puddle or orange-brown was able to be seen. (Ew, don't tell us. Ikuto: you wrote it! Me: don't start with meh!) Everyone rushed to Amu and pushed me away. (Don't you dare push Ikuto away! Ikuto:over-protective phsyco.) they brang her back upstairs.

I followed them and help a little. Utau went downstairs with Rima to clean up the mess.

NORMAL POV~

WITH UTAU~

Utau and Rima started cleaning. "Hey, Rima, do you know that Amu's birthday is coming up?"

"Oh yeah, I wonder what Ikuto's gonna do." Rima smirked.

"Oh! Rima, that look tells me that you have an idea."

"Oh yeah," Rima replied. "So. What does Ikuto love most in the world?"

"Amu."

"And what does Ikuto want the most from Amu?"

"Sex."

"If you put one plus one together, what do you have?"

"Ikuto should have sex with Amu for her birthday!" Utau cried and slipped on water. She fell on her back. "I'm fine." Rima giggled.

"Perfect, now to tell Ikuto."

STILL NORMAL POV~

TO IKUTO AND OTHERS~

We finished helping and that was about the same time the girls finished cleaning. Everyone left, and Ikuto was left alone with a sick girl.

He sighed, and went to lay down on his bed. He closed his eyes, and began to think about the events that happened that day when he met Amu for the second time.

*FLASHBACK IN IKUTO'S POV* (please note that this is a different version than the one in a past chappie. There are more details and you can see how Ikuto really felt during the time periods.)

Things are different without Amu here. I mean, when you see that you life has changed dramatically, you just want to die.

I really hope that I see Amu again, and so that we can resume our relationship. Let's just hope that she hasn't changed he mind about me.

I walked to school, being late for like the millionth time. I saw a girl with the same color hair as Amu on that day, and I knew that fate let us see each other.

As I stared, she looked like she was mouthing some words. I don't know what, but it brings back memories. All those times that Amu sang to me.

I could muster a few words.

"Oboete imasu ka?...Oboete imasu ka?...I love you so."

That was all I could here. But 'do you remember?' what was that all about. I keep wacthing her, and a wind blows. Her hair flows with the wind, and I wish that I never moved.

A FEW DAYS LATER

I would still like to meet that girl. While Kukai talks to me about a CD, I stare at the girl. Kukai keeps blabbering, and I decide to walk toward the girl. Kukai runs up to me again, and holds the CD in my face. " 'Secret Princess' the CD? Really Kukai?" I ask the doofy kid in front of me.

"Ugh, here, you have it. I really don't care. This CD isn't that important." He looks over my shoulder. I look at the girl. She's staring at us. Or me. Why?

Kukai laughs about something and looks where I'm looking. "Yo! Kukai!" the girl yells to him. He waves and runs to her. I keep wacthing them. They start to talk and elementary schoolers run up to the pinkette. They all started laughing, and soon the little kids-excluding Kukai-went their seprete ways.

Some guys walked up to them, and the girl made them walk away. Soon, Kukai and Pinky were chasing each other. Then Kukai noticed I was staring. He called me over.

Nervous reck time, I thought, as I 'casually' walked toward the pair. Inside, I wanted to run as far away as I can. And that was when my life changed.

When I met Hinamori Amu for the second time.

ENDDDDDDDD~

Ikuto sighed as he walked to the window, and looked towards Amu's balconey. There she was, standing with hair flowing in the wind.

Kami-sama, if I am meant to die here hold it off! He thought.

It was like god wanted that day to rewind itself. And it was starting.

Ikuto walked to her room and opened the door. She was singing that song again.

"Aimo, aimo,
"Nede llushe
"Noina milia,
"Endel protea,
"Photow mih."

This song was the lullaby that hit the charts on Amu's second CD. Now, this song is on every CD, telling people how she cares.

"Koko wa attaka na, umi da yo."

Ikuto was hypnotinzed. He walked up right behind her and put his arms around her waist. She stopped singing. "I knew you would do that." She remarked.

Ikuto chuckled. "I'm wondering what to get you for your birthday, that's coming up fast."

"If its birthday ideas you need, go to Utau and Rima. They have a list." Amu smiled.

"Very nice. Now, can you believe that our birthdays are so close?"

"Close?" Amu laughed. "September twenty-fourth and December first are not close at all, Ikuto-baka."

"Whats with the honorific?" Ikuto asked.

"Nothing. Now let me go because I want to take a shower." Amu got out of Ikuto's grasp. She walked to the bathroom door and leaned on it. "But, please, don't throw a party. I'm still getting over last years."

She walked into the bathroom and closed the door. Ikuto leaned on the door and felt pressure building up on the other side.

Amu was there too. She wanted to start a conversation. "I just wish that all that never happened."

"What?"

"All the drama. I mean, I tried to kill myself. Just because all the people that are close to me are being murdered. I used to think that I was the main target. But, now I'm being paranoid."

Amu could remember all this? I never knew. But maybe she wanted to tell me but never got to because of the stomach problem.

"I'm thinking that I want to die."

That was it, and I opened the door and hugged her. I couldn't stand hearing this from her at all. This was crazy.

"Amu, never say that! You would never want to die! You love me, and I know for one that you love the life you have! If you die, what will I do?"

She looked down. "You can live on without me," she whispered.

Why does this seem familiar? Oh no, the event might repeat itself! Ikuto thought. "Amu, don't start this again. Please. I'm done with hospitals."

Amu laughed and looked up. "See, you can always cheer me up, Ikuto!"

I sweat-dropped. Amu was fooling with me. "You CRAZY woman! You were just FOOLING with ME!"

"HA HA HA!"

~~~~~AMUTO!~~~~~~

Amu woke up to be cuddled into Ikuto and she got up as fast as she can. She looked back at Ikuto and he looked cute while he was sleeping. STOP THINKING LIKE THAT AMU! Amu started scratching her head like a carzy person.

Little did she know, Ikuto was awake and was enjoying this. After Amu finished messing up her hair, she looked back at Ikuto and sweat-dropped. "Are you enjoying this?"

"oh, yeah."

"…BAKA NEKO!"

"HA!" he laughed. "And do you remember that your concert is today?"

"SHIT!"

I really liked this chapter.
