Hello lovely people, im glad that some of you have not forgotten ths story!


''I've been waiting for this moment for so long you have no idea...'' Nadeshiko said as she was digging in her wardobe. The Red Blazers practically lived in the boys' hideout after such a long period of time. She and Nagihiko had brought the girls' clothes a few days ago so most of their clothes were already in their wardrobes there. She was throwing out different swim suits: black, blue, pink ones. All of them were scattered on the floor as a horrified Amu looked at her purple haird friend. What in the world was she looking for? And why was she needed here in the first place?

Rima knocked on the door lightly and went in, already dressed in her olive green swim suit. It was a two piece with little frills and bright yellow star on her left hip. She was carrying a simple long shirt with her, she didnt think there was any use in more considering they were going to take off their clothes right after they arrive. After her were Yaya wearing her signature bright yellow one piece with frills around her waist and Utau with simple black two piece. Amu looked at them and just sweat dropped. Why was she here again?

Utau grinned. She was planning to make Amu wear that pretty little-

''Found it! Here Amu-chan.'' Nadeshiko handed the pinkette a small box with the label ''Beach Wear'' with fancy letters and their leader immediately regretted entering the room. What were they planning? Yaya sat on the neatly fixed bed and laid down with her hands stretched on her sides. She was smiling and looking at the others while Utau just stared at Amu in expectation. Well?

''Aren't you going to put those on? I still want my sandcastle!'' She nudged Amu with her elbow and pushed her in the bathroom.

Amu sighed. She really didn't want to put the thing that was in this box, who knew what it could be! From those girls she expected anything. ''I can always blame it on them, i dont have a swimsuit either way...'' she thought to herself while opening the box and stared at the contents. It was actually very pretty.

Amu put on the two piece and looked at herself in the mirror. Her red and and black highlights were starting to fade and her natural bubblegum pink hair now seemed better than the extentions she put in. Amu took them off and looked herself in the mirror content. Her hair looked healthier than before and soon it would be as smooth as it used to be. Sighing again from the effort it took her lazy self to put the two piece, she stepped out and was met with whistles and grins.

The girls were content, she looked very nice even in simple beach wear. Now the girls were only waiting for Nadeshiko who was putting on hers and when all of them were ready with their bags, they went down to meet the boys.

Who unfortunately weren't prepared for this. So not prepared. Up to an extent where when the girls went down Kukai fell on the floor as soon as they saw them. On the other side the girls couldn't really understand why all of them blushed and looked at each other. They were just not that heavily dressed, it was natural, they were going to the beach. Amu rested her right hand on her hip and looked at them impatient.

''So why are you guys so distressed?''

Distressed was a bit of an understatement because the boys weren't really thinking straight with tey partners looking like this. It wasn't as it they were staring because they knew if they openly did that they would be beaten to a pulp. It was just that these girls were even more gorgeous when they didn't wear tomboyish clothes.

Nagihiko wan't really okay with Rima wearing only a long shirt, he had to admit. His Rima was so beautiful for a moment he thought it wasn't true that she was now his. Although Rima probably would've argued that she was and never will be anyone else's that herself and maybe Amu's. He chuckled internally and kept looking at her slim and petite figure as she took her bag from the couch and headed towards the garage followed by Nadeshiko and Yukari, who on the other side had a hard time standing next to Nikaido. Both were blushing like teenagers.

Kairi was blushing like crazy on the other side when Yaya jumped him all of a sudden.

''Kairiiii, let's go Yaya is starting to get impatient. Those seeweeds aren't gonna get thrown themselves you know.'' The innocent and unsuspecting Yaya didn't really understand why Kairi was trembling as she took his hand in hers and led him towardsthe waiting Rima and Yukari jumping happily. With that in the room were left Amu, Ikuto, Kukai and Utau. The girls just raised their shoulders when their eyes met and Amu went to the kitchen to get a bottle of water for the trip while Utau went to check up on the flabbergasted Kukai. Ikuto silently followed her.

The pinkette opened the fridge door and started looking around for snacks and water while Ikuto leaned on the door frame and watched her every move, still in disbelief. She, oblivious, wiggled deeper to take those sliced fruits she Nadeshiko told her she had prepared that morning and meanwhile opened the freezer door to get the pop sicles she swore she saw a few days ago.

''Amu-koi that really isnt a position you should be in in front of a man.'' Ikuto startled her and while lifting her head she accidently hit her head on the roof of the fridge which made her moan in pain while Ikuto chuckled. He came closer as she glared at him.

"There is no koi after my name got it pretty boy?'' She groaned and kept searching in the fridge a little flushed after turning around and finding that he was right beside her. Was she always blushing when he was so close to her?

Ikuto on the other hand kept staring at her. Amu was wearing a black loose blouse that was slipping from her right shoulder and some midnight blue shorts to go along and show her slim and porcelain white legs. ''Dark colours look good on her'' Ikuto thought as he once again was mesmirised by the contrast her pale skin had with the dark colours of her clothes. Boy was he gonna be shocked later...

Amu grabbed the stuff she wanted to find but when she turned to her left she bumped into Ikuto and all of the stuff went flying around them. The pinkette flushed as she felt his skin touching hers; it was just like every time they touched while sleeping or just brushing against each other while working. She couldn't explain it but it made her skin tingle every time and her cheeks would become rosy. Thank God he hadn't noticed at all.

But Ikuto had...And he thought she was adorable. She was looking down stubborly with anannoyed expression and it brought him joy to know he was the cause of the colour on her cheeks.

He lowered his head and whispered in her ear: ''C'mon Amu-koi... The others are waiting."

Walking away he didn't pay attention to the fact that this time Amu was so flushed she forgot to correct him on the koi part.


They took the stares this time to the garage where their team mates were already waiting for them. Nagihiko was already in Rima's Weber on the passenger seat while Rima was adjusting the radio station and Yukari was going to ride with Kairi. He just couldn't bare to stand next to the sad Yaya. Still so clueless as ever on the effect she had on him.

Amu was heading to her Porsche but Ikuto put a hand on her shoulder motioning to his Subari she fixed a few days ago. Amu looked at the car and then back at her baby. She sighed a bit and nodded. Ikuto chuckled, she was so used to driving around in her own car that she forgot other models werent so bad.

''We aren't ina hurry you know.'' Both laughed and the pinkette took one last glance at the car with her hand on door handle. She wondered...Most cars she saw nowadays couldn't but maybe this car would. She scoffed. People always want the newst model of everything. Though this car may...

She looked at the hood of the car. In all honesty her car couldn't powershift. She hasn't seen anyone even attempt to powershift except her father. She shuddered and shook her head. Ikuto doesn't know what powershifting even is. He can't possibly.

Ikuto saw her staring the hood of his Subaru and wondered what exactly was in her mind right now. He knew she was thinking of something important because her face was expressionless and her eyes were focused on one particular thing though he didn't exactly know what it was.

''Amu? Is everything alright?'' He asked and was only met with a question.

''Can you powershift?'' She had the small hope that he knew but that hope died when she saw him hesitating. It rang a bell in Ikuto's head but he couldn't recall exactly what it meant. So in answer the leader just shook his head and looked at her apologetic.

She waved her hand and got in. ''I knew it.'' Amu thought and looked at the garage door. Everybody was waiting for Utau and Kukai.

Ikuto got it and tapped his fingers against the wheel. As if on que Kukai ran in the garage and slammed his car's door, driving away quickly without saying a word. The two teams looked confused as he turned left and sped up towards the beach. Next through the doors walked a smirking Utau. Only Rima noticed the small blush on her cheeks.


''So what's powershifting?'' Ikuto asked as he took another right, humming softly to the beat of the radio. Amu was enjoying the breeze before he asked her and thought for a momenth whether or not she should tell him. In the end she decided.

Sticking her tongue out and winking she said:

''You don't need to know.'' Then turned to the window again, putting her sunglasses again and waving her right hand in the air. It just felt so good against her skin, she alsmost forgot about the powershifting thing.

When you cry yourself to sleep tonight
You will wish that I was by your side
Yes you will

I gave you everything you ever wanted
You gave me nothing but grief
Now that I'm gone you'll see I'm your missing piece
Well, good luck, finding another me, yeah
Finding another me, ooh

Now don't you know that karma tastes so sweet
So, good luck, finding another me

Ikuto sang the last words and smirked while Amu scoffed. Show off.

''Play that song again.'' She ordered him and the blue haired man laughed, turning it on again. Both started slowly moving to the beat. Yet again Amu knew the music he listened to and it never stopped amusing him and maybe he was a little bit impressed. She decided to sing along as well and before they knew it Rima sped up next to them in her Weber and smirked at Amu, mouthing the words. Nagihiko next to her was screaming that she should mind the road...But given that they were on a very wide road and nobody was around they could allow themselves to sing a little bit. Utau was right behind them still smiling whereas Yukari and Nikaido were taking things slower and were more in the distance.

They pulled up where Kukai's car was and he apparently was already in the water since his stuff was on the beach. The girls got out, eager to go in the water themselves, leaving the boys to get all of their things from the cars. Rima, being small and fast, ditched Nagihiko immediately and went to Amu. She tugged her sleeve and both laughed as they raced to the water. The boys smiled as they watched them.

''One minute ruthless and might I add very rude racers, another- just girls.'' Ikuto mubbled and they both heard Yukari laughing behind them, nodding.

''Of course, they are my girls. Treasures.'' She smiled and took her things from the car to place them on the sand. It wasn't crowded as they thought because the beach wasn't in the city and not many people were enjoying the sun next to them. A few surfers and families, that was all.

The guys took off their shirts one by one and threw them away on the ground. The sun was high in the sky and there were no clouds, the weather was perfect for a day in the beach. Amu was just putting away the snacks in the cooler and as soon as she looked up she regretted it.

Blood rushed to her cheeks from what she was seeing: a shirtless Ikuto, his toned body and nice skin making it hard for her to look away. His skin looked so smooth and she knew it was since they slept in the same bed... She blushed even harder. How did they even end up in the bed together?

Because Yaya got you in a bet and you lost you idiot...But he looks...very nice...Just look at him...The physical training has paid off in full, god damn...

AMU SNAP OUT OF IT! She screamed at herself, looking down at the sand as if it was the most interesting thing in the world for her. A few seconds later she looked up again, he was...irresistable. Who knew Ikuto could look so good...

She shook her head again. Hinamori get a grip. No. He is a pervert hentai baka neko you will not...but he really does look good...NO!

Still shaking her head she didn't realize that he was heading towards her much to the dismay of every one around her. The girls that were on the beach were staring shamelessly at the guys who didn't seem to care much adn were used to it. Nagihiko tied his hair up while Kairi was applying sunscreen on his right shoulder.

''Amu...Amu...Amu-koi'' Ikuto tried calling her but she was too preoccupied to think about him to actually come back from dream land. Subconsciously she took the ends of her top and undressed while shaking her head, catching him out of guard.

He almost fell on th ground from what was in front of him.

Poor Ikuto he was not prepared for the dark blue two piece swimsuit his pinkette was wearing. It even had a cute black cat on the left breast winking at him. Ikuto could feel the possible nose bleed he was going to have if he kept staring at her.

''C-COVER YOURSELF YOU IDIOT!'' He shouted at her and wrapped his towel round her, stomping off towards the water. The pinkette didn't even notice that he was there talking to her.

The realization hit her as she understood why his cheeks were so red and why he had dripped a bit of blood on the sand.

Oh god...what am I getting myself into with this guy...
