Chapter 19 – Wait! You Want To What Now!?
[So once again…I ended up disappearing for ages _ I am so sorry everyone. I keep wanting to do these stories for you all again but things keep getting in the way. Being an adult truly does suck…especially when you can't really do what it is that you want to do ~sigh~ EITHER WAY! Point is I am here again so let's get this story going! Last chapter Ikuto asked Amu a very…important…question. What will her response be? How will this impact their futures? Continue reading to find out. ;] Please remember that I do NOT own any of the characters – only the initial storyline 3]
Amu's POV
I blink at Ikuto before sitting up after the words he said finally set in. 'Wait. You want to what?' I feel a cold wave of fear wash over me as I sit up and put my hands in my hair. 'Why would you want to tell them? I thought we agreed to wait so that you don't get into trouble.' I suddenly feel very fidgety and don't want to sit still, regardless of how tired I feel.
'I just figured that I should do it before she has the chance to.' I could hear the annoyance in Ikuto's voice, especially as he brings El up. I think about it for a second and let out a deep sigh. 'You don't know what she is capable of Amu.' I look back at him, I don't know why but I feel really pissed at that comment. 'Maybe if you had of told me about what she was capable of then we wouldn't even be in this mess!' I keep my voice low but the anger is clear when I speak.
I can see Ikuto's eyes turn almost cold at me before he closes his eyes and shakes his head. 'I told you about how she treated me when we were together, I didn't think that she would find her way back into my life after all these years. It's not like I invited her here!' I roll my eyes and get up from the bed. 'Where are you going!?' I could hear him getting more frustrated with me. 'Out. I need some air.' I respond as I grab my silk robe and walk towards the door.
Ikuto's POV
I see red, this is exactly what that silly cow wanted to happen. I stand up and the next thing I know I have Amu's back up against the wall by the door. 'I am not letting you walk out that door.' She looks up at me shocked, however it's only for a second, her eyes glare up at me with her eyebrows furrowed in anger. 'Let me go Ikuto!' she still isn't shouting. Probably because of everyone else, but I can't just let this happen. 'No.' I simply answered before picking her up over my shoulder and putting her back on the bed.
'For Christ sake Ikuto! Why did you have to ask such a stupid question!? I thought we were fine! We would make it through this! Now all of a sudden we have to tell my parents!?' I kiss her to shut her up, her eyes are still glaring at me through her eyelashes. I pull away and cross my arms as I stand in front of her.
'I never said we have to tell your parents. I was simply asking what you thought of me telling them. Huge difference.' I pinch the bridge of my nose and close my eyes as she sighs deeply. 'Maybe…I over-reacted.' I glance down at her and sigh. 'You think?' I say as I sit down next to her, placing a hand on hers as she throws her silk robe on the chair by the window. 'I would never just go and tell them. I'm not stupid Amu.' She nods slightly before sighing again. 'I just didn't think we would be at that stage yet. I mean I'm not even sure if we are still going to together in 4-5 years' time. I wanted to be sure before telling them.' I feel somewhat hurt by her comment, I think she notices as she looks at me apologetically. 'You know what I mean…' I sigh in annoyance but nod in agreement.
'So you want to hold off on it I take it?' I ask as I get up from the bed. Within a few seconds I feel her arms wrapped around my waist. 'Maybe we should tell them….' I barely hear her as she whispers into my back but my eyes widen as I realise she is serious. I turn to face her and place my hands on her shoulders and look her square in the eyes. 'Are you sure about this?' She looks at me with concern written across her face, but fear prominently in her eyes.
'We don't really have a choice. It's either us or her right?' she sighs as I hold her closely to my chest. 'What do you say we get through this stay first and then tell them when we get home?' I suggest, I feel her tense up slightly then relax and nod slightly.
'I just hope it won't be too late.' I stroke her hair as I comfort her. 'Even if we are too late, I will always protect you. I will always love you.' I smile down at her as her innocent eyes glance up at me. 'Baka…' she whispers with a small flush across her cheeks. I smirk as I kiss the top of her head.
'I just hope that my mother hasn't gone to your parents with proof. Heck El and my mother might even be working together for all we know!' I sighed as I held her slightly tighter. She looked up at me with a sad look on her face. 'Can we just not think about it anymore? I know that we have to figure out what we are going to say eventually but I really don't want to lose sleep and have our holiday ruined because of it. Besides if they did end up finding out, I'm sure we would know about it.' She smiled weakly as I felt anger boil up inside of me, my hand balling up into a fist before feeling her hand over mine. 'We will figure this out. Together.' I smile down at her and kiss her deeply, evoking all of my love for her.
3 Weeks Later
Normal POV
Ikuto and Amu are on their way back from a quick stroll down to the local beach. They are happily walking along holding hands, the one place they can do it out in the open is here. They are trying to take advantage of the fact that after tomorrow when they go back home they won't be able to do it. Especially if Amu's parents do not accept their relationship.
They are almost back at the resort when… 'Mr. Tsukiyomi! Miss Hinamori! You need to come with me.' Ikuto could see the panic in Nagihiko's eyes and felt his heart sink into his stomach. He looks at Amu before they start running. Once they get into the resort they head to the public living area. There is a breaking news story. They feel everything around them begin to freeze their bodies as they see El and Ikuto's mother on the T.V giving out a statement.
The room is silent as they all wait to hear the two of them speak. 'My name is El, and I am here to inform everyone that Amu Hinamori and her teacher Ikuto Tsukiyomi are in a romantic relationship with each other. I have proof and want justice.' Amu and Ikuto look at each other, the shock clear on their faces. 'I was engaged to Ikuto Tsukiyomi before Amu Hinamori seduced him to steal him from me. Unfortunately it has worked and my poor fiancé has been risking his job all because of the evil girl. The evil girl that betrayed the Easter Company by staging all of the evidence to make it look like a horrid place to work. But I have been working with them for years and have never seen any of what Amu Hinamori and her friends claimed happened.' She had a stern cold look in her eyes, at one point they could swear they see her smirk.
'Wait what!?' Utau screamed out as she came storming in from the lounge area. 'She was never your fiancé! Who the hell does she think she is lying like this!?' Amu's face began to drop more and more as her entire world began to fall apart once more. She falls to the floor and silent tears begin to roll down her face. 'She made me out to be the bad guy. I'm the evil one.' She looks up at Ikuto and suddenly it is just the two of them in the room. He is looking at her with an evil smirk on his face. 'Did you really think I would be in love with a dumb student like you? This was the plan all along young Amu. I never loved you. All I wanted to do was to destroy you.' He begins laughing manically, evilly. Suddenly Nagihiko and Utau are there too, laughing the same terrifying laugh.
Amu's POV
I sit up to something shaking me violently. 'Amu! Amu! Wake up!' I open my eyes in a hurry and sit up, looking around the room to see Ikuto beside me. His eyes filled with despair and panic. 'Are you ok?! It was only a dream. Everything will be ok now. I'm here.' I feel his arms wrap around me and I only just realise I am covered in ice cold sweat, I feel tears flowing down my cheeks and can feel myself shaking terribly.
We sit in silent for a while as I calm down, Ikuto then pulls back from me and looks me in the eyes with a serious expression. 'What happened?' I took a deep breath before looking him back in the eyes. 'El and your mother were on the news announcing that we were in a relationship. El was your fiancé and made me out to be an evil little girl who had stolen her beloved from her. You were really cold and cruel to me…She even made it out that we all lied about Easter…' I shiver again as I think back to them all laughing at me.
I hear him sigh and see him pinch the bridge of his nose once again. 'It was a nightmare because you are nervous about tomorrow.' He stated mater of factly. I nodded slowly as I take another deep breath in an attempt to slow my heart rate down. 'I think I am more nervous about it than originally anticipated.' I smile wearily at him. 'We still need to discuss what you want to say to them, if you still want to of course?' I nod sternly. 'I have to tell them. I'm certain that if we don't then someone else will.'
He smiles at me before putting a hand to my cheek. 'No matter what happens we will always be together ok?' I blush as he kisses me ever so gently. 'I love you Amu Hinamori. And I will be your husband one day.' I feel my cheeks heat up insanely as he kisses me once more. 'I'll go run you a bath.' He smirks before getting off of the bed and disappearing into the bathroom, leaving me alone with my thoughts.
How on earth are we going to admit everything to my parents and still be together? I have a strong feeling that dad will not approve. I'm not sure about mum but I know that dad isn't keen on Ikuto since his mother had to go and throw accusations around. She probably threw everything out of proportion that we have had sex and I am pregnant or some crap. I sigh mentally before getting out of the bed to see how soaked the sheets are from my nightmare. I must have really worried Ikuto… I look over toward the bathroom before walking over toward the slightly opened door.
Ikuto's POV
I stood alone in the bathroom, having taken my shirt and trousers off to have a quick wash in the shower before Amu came in to have her bath that I was currently running. I rubbed the back of my neck as I started to think about how we were going to tell her parents about us…and stay together. I had a feeling it wouldn't go our way but I had to make them see that I would never hurt their daughter and I would do everything to protect her, even them if need be.
I sighed deeply before realising that all of my clothes were in the wardrobe. 'Damn it…' I bent down to grab my clothes from the laundry basket only to see Amu standing at the door staring at me with a deep red blush playing across her cheeks. 'I am so sorry! I should've knocked before coming in!' Amu began to blunder out before turning around and covering her face. 'I'll wait until you've finished.' She continued, but I felt her tense up as I stood behind her and hugged her around her waist. 'You sure you don't want to stay for a little while?' I purred into her ear, I felt her shudder at the touch of my breath on her neck and smirked. 'What's wrong, cat got your tongue?' I purred once more in a low whisper before feeling her shudder once more.
Following my instincts I start to kiss and nip at her neck slightly. I could hear her beginning to get breathless as I hugged her tighter around her waist to keep her close to me. 'Why did you have to come in here in only your nightdress…' I whispered against her tender neck. That's when I cupped her left breast with my hand and continued to kiss that same tender spot, I heard her gasp out in pleasure and begin to buckle in my arms. I smirked against her neck before moving away from her. She looked over at me with a slight pout on her face that I was no longer giving her that pleasure I could tell she was beginning to crave. 'You play a very dangerous game. Amu Hinamori.' I said as I made my way over to the bath to turn off the water. 'I just wanted to come in and apologise.' I turned back to her when I heard her voice soften up. 'Apologise? For what?' I made my way back over to her, still standing in only my boxers, which had gotten a little snugger.
'I assumed my nightmare worried you. You looked really scared when I woke up.' She explained as she crossed her arms across her chest, which actually pushed her breasts together, definitely not what I needed right now. 'Don't worry yourself about that. I mean yeah I was worried but I knew that you would be ok. You're stronger than most people after all.' I smiled down at her before pulling her close to me and kissing her deeply. I felt her slender arms hug me around my waist before she pulled back suddenly, blushing a deep maroon by this point. I looked down and began blushing slightly as I rubbed the back of my head. 'Sorry about that, you know what you do to me.' I apologised as she just realised I was in my boxers and the way she was dressed had definitely made me a lot harder than anticipated.
I saw her bite down on her bottom lip slightly. 'I wish I could be ready now. I really do.' I heard her whisper in a seductive voice. I could feel myself throbbing for her even more now. 'If you keep standing there and keep sounding like that, I honestly don't know if I will be able to contain myself much longer.' I said with serious look on my face, but I could hear it in my voice, I was definitely sounding breathless, and we hadn't even done anything. I mentally cursed myself for letting myself get like this.
I was shocked when I saw her take a step towards me. 'I'm serious Amu. I seriously want you right now, I'm dying to have my way with you right now. I don't want us to do anything until you are ready and want to. We have that agreement for a reason and I don't want you to feel-' I was shocked when she practically threw herself at me, she was kissing me deeply and I could feel myself growing in size, if that was even possible.
'Oh god Amu…' I moaned out between our kisses. She quickly moved away from me covering her face. I looked at her, beginning to feel my body sweat from the heat of the kiss. 'I'm sorry. I just…You look really tempting like that.' I smirked at her as I looked down at my bare chest. I shrugged my shoulders slightly before touching her cheek gently. 'You know you are much more tempting Amu.' I purred before kissing the top of her head. 'You better get out of here before I have my way with you.' I purred into her ear seductively before seeing her nod furiously. She quickly kissed my cheek before ruching out of the bathroom and closing the door behind her. I sighed deeply as I rubbed my hand over my throbbing member. 'Damn it Amu' I thought to myself as I could feel my pants growing tighter and tighter. I make my way over to the shower and turn it on, looking over at the door and locking it, I didn't want Amu to be too tempted with the door unlocked.
Once the water was hot enough I took off my boxers and got into the shower, feeling the hot water dance over my skin didn't help my situation much, I gripped onto my throbbing member as thoughts of Amu started flying through my mind. The sound of her moans, her scent and the way her curves made her look sexy without her even trying. I bit the inside of my mouth as I began moving my hand slowly up and down, trying my best not to moan out in pleasure.
Amu's POV
I felt on fire, in the best way possible. I knew I wanted to be with Ikuto, I was mainly scared more than anything else. But I did want to wait until I left school. And then there was my parents, what if they didn't approve of our relationship. Let's be completely honest they probably won't. I'm Ikuto's student. He's my teacher. I mentally sighed as I sank back into the couch in our living room. Part of me wanted to run away with him, to leave and never come back. I knew that the relationship was morally wrong, but everything that we have together is so right. I can't imagine what I would do without him, he makes me feel amazing, and I don't even mean physically. I mean mentally, emotionally, spiritually and, of course, physically as well.
I began blushing as I thought about the way that he looked standing there in just his boxers, his muscles, his stance, just everything! He looked like a god to me, I had only ever seen him like that and I could honestly say it took my breath away. I loved the way his boxers hugged him toned ass, the way his body looked so warm and inviting. I mentally shook myself before smacking my cheeks gently and shaking my head. I can't keep thinking like this, if I do then in no time I'll be going back on my word.
I looked besides me to see a small cushion and grabbed it before screaming into it. 'WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE SO DIFFICULT!?' I sat back before falling to the side on the couch. 'It's official. I hate having a conscious right now. I hate life right now.' I hugged onto the cushion as I stared at the TV. I hadn't bothered watching anything on TV for the entirety of our stay, and now with the nightmare I had last night I am almost afraid to even consider turning it on. I poked my tongue out at it as I got up from the couch, throwing the cushion back to its original spot and walking towards the small kettle, I picked it up to see that we had enough for one drink. I looked at the door to the bathroom and could hear the shower still running. I shrugged my shoulders and turned on the switch. Looking at my phone I finally saw the time 4:30AM. My eyes widened and I rubbed my eyes to double check I wasn't imagining things. I grunted as I looked at the freshly boiled kettle, I grabbed a mug and put the last tea bag in. After pouring my drink I made my way over to the couch once again, picking up my phone and browsing the internet. The TV looming over me, almost daring me to turn it on, but I refuse to give in to its imaginary taunting.
I sat in silence drinking my tea, and it hit me. The best way to pass the time. I smiled as I got up and grabbed my earphones. I sat back down, slippers off, earphones in, legs crossed. I put my mug of tea on the coffee table and began searching through my songs. It had been ages since I had last sung a song. I truly missed it and it took me a long time to get used to it once again after everything happened with Easter.
I smiled as I scrolled down to find one of the songs that initially got my love for singing back, it really resonated with me, Borders by Amber. She was a part of one of my favourite Kpop bands. I hit play and felt completely at peace.
Cause mom said I'd be crossing borders
Never be afraid even when you're cornered
Stand up straight, fight your way
Fight your way, fight your way
All these people here staring and looking at me
Shaking their heads, eyes down strong on me
What's wrong with me? Can you tell me now?
What's wrong with me? Can you tell me, now?
The anger, the cruelty, I deserve it
And I'd do anything to Be what they call perfect
Then maybe I could find a place to call my own and belong
But if only I was strong
I'll be walking with my eyes down
Eyes down, eyes down
I'll keep my eyes down
Eyes down, eyes down
Cause mom said I'd be crossing borders
Never be afraid even when you're cornered
Stand up straight, fight your way
Fight your way, fight your way
Through the borders
Through the borders
Through the borders
Fight your way, fight your way
Through the borders
Through the borders
Through the borders
Fight your way, fight your way
Stand up, fall down, up again
Up against the pressure I am in
Slowly but surely I begin
Jumping trains cause I know I can win
Oh fear not cause I know I'm in his hands
Though I can't see I know there's a plan
So thick the fog but I know I can trust
The feelings that I feel when the roads rough
I gotta be tough with my eyes down
Eyes down, eyes down
Strong in my stance with my eyes down
Eyes down, eyes down
Cause mom said
I'd be crossing borders
Never be afraid even
When you're cornered
Stand up straight, fight your way
Fight your way, fight your way
Through the borders
Through the borders
Through the borders
Fight your way, fight your way
Through the borders
Through the borders
Through the borders
Fight your way, fight your way
No, I won't play pretend
I can't pretend
There's so much more up ahead
All that's up ahead
No, I won't play pretend
There's so much more ahead
Through the borders
Through the borders
Through the borders
Fight your way, fight your way
Through the borders
Through the borders
Through the borders
Fight your way, fight your way
Through the borders
Through the borders
Normal POV
As Amu finished her song she had a faint smile on her face. It felt so right to be using her vocal cords again, after so long. She jumped as she felt two arms snake around her shoulders. She quickly pulled her ear phones from her ears and placed her hands on the arms around her.
'Ikuto?' She asked curiously. 'I forgot how lovely your voice was.' He practically whispered. 'Are you ok?' she tried to turn around in his arms but he just tightened his hold on her, keeping her facing away from him. 'I'm sorry, I just- what made you choose that song?' he asked through what Amu could only assume were tears. 'It was one of the songs I listened to the most when getting over everything with Easter. It was the main song that got me singing again.' She replied as she tightened her grip on his arms. 'I didn't mean to make you cry. I'm sorry.' She sounded really disappointed with herself before Ikuto fell silent and scooped her up into his arms and kissed her gently. After he pulled away from her she looked at him curiously. 'Is everything ok?' she asked cautiously.
'Everything is perfect.' He smiled back at her, the purest and happiest smile she had ever seen. 'Hearing you sing that song made me feel like everything is going to be fine. We are going to be fine.' He kissed her again as she smiled with him feeling relieved. 'I love you Amu Hinamori.' He whispered as he placed his forehead against hers. 'And I love you, Ikuto Tsukiyomi.' She smiled as he let her down and they just stood in blissful silence, hugging. Amu's music still playing in the background.
