Side Note: I just love this.. xDDDDDD (And in Japan you drive at 17)

Chapter 8 - My...Prince?

"Ugh, this weekend is so boring!" I shouted.

"Why don't you go do something useful, like your homework?" Miki sighed.

"That's even more boring! School is so annoying!" I yelled.

"Don't worry, Amu. There's only a two more months til' school ends. And your birthday is in one month. You should look forward to it." Dia smiled.

"Mm, you're right. I'm going to turn sixteen soon. I should be happy. Although, I have to wait another year to drive. But maybe Papa will let me test drive. Maybe." I said.

I heard a ring. It was a text message...from...Tadase.

"What?" I gasped.

"From Hotori?" Suu smiled.

"Tadase-kun..." Miki and Ran weren't that happy.

"It's a text. It says:

Hinamori Amu, I want you to meet me in the bakery. I'm going to get a cake for my mother and want you to help me.

-Tadase Hotori"

"Aw, that's sweet." Suu said.

"How?" Miki and Ran asked.

"I don't know why you two pick favorites." Dia sighed.

We ran to the bakery as fast as possible.

Tadase! Tadase! I finally get to see you!

I opened the door to the bakery and saw Tadase holding a rose in his hand.

"Amu!" he yelled.

"Ta-Tadase." I stuttered.

"I brought you this." he said; holding out the rose.

"Thank you, Tadase." I blushed.

He smiled and blushed back.

"Oh! What type of cake does your mom like?" I asked.

"She likes strawberry, although I really like vanilla...So I want to get one that has both." Tadase said.

"I know! How about strawberry shortcake?" I asked.

"Mm, okay." he smiled.

He asked the clerk if they had that kind of a cake. The clerk nodded, and gave Tadase the cake. Tadase gave him the money.

"Let's walk, Amu." Tadase smiled; holding the cake in one hand and holding my hand in the other.

We passed by an ice cream attendant, and got some ice cream.

"I got you vanilla, Amu." Tadase smiled.

"Oh, okay, thanks. Although I prefer chocolate more..." I blushed; remembering Ikuto and I sharing an ice cream.

"I'm sorry, Amu." Tadase said.

"No! It's fine!" I said.

We started walking to the park; both of us holding our ice cream.

"Tadase, I really want to say this...I don't know if this is how I feel about you, but, but...Tadase..." I stopped walking.

"Amu?" he asked.

"I love you!" I said.

What was that!? I don't even know if I have these feelings for him! Why in the name of hell did I just say it?!

"Uhm...Amu that was sudden. I don't know what to say." he looked confused.

"Aren't you supposed to say I love you back?" I asked, "Didn't you give me that note!?"

"What note...?" Tadase asked.

"The...the note..." I was on the verge of tears, "The note that said...I love you."

Tears were falling out of my eyes; hitting the ground in a quick motion.

"I never did that, Amu...I actually think...I think..." He started, "That's a demented way to show love."

What...?

I threw the ice cream at him and started sobbing. I ran towards home.

"Amu-chan!" Ran yelled out.

"Leave me alone!" I yelled.

It wasn't Tadase...It wasn't Tadase. I can't believe I was so stupid; thinking that Tadase, out of all people, did this. It couldn't have been Nagihiko. No. Neither Kukai. He and Utua had a steady relationship. Nagihiko was with Rima. Could, could the one who wrote that...the one...the one who I care dearly about...Ikuto...be the one? Could he!? I'm so stupid! He was the only one who actually was there...I was set on the false hope of being with Tadase. A beautiful, lovely, and romantic relationship with him; just because I thought he loved me. He never loved me. He might have liked me, but love, never. Never ever.

I opened the doors to my house and fell onto my bed; sobbing.

"What the matter?" Ikuto said; letting himself in through the balcony.

"I'm sorry, Ikuto." I sobbed; getting up and hugging him.

"I'm so...so...sorry."

He hugged me back.

"Amu-chan..." Ran frowned.

Miki took a picture.

"For the fangirls." she whispered silently.

Side Note: I think the parts I loved the most was when Amu threw the ice cream at Tadase and said she was stupid. :D And I love all the amuto fangirlness of Miki and Ran xDDDDD
