HELLO!!!!! Again. Anyway I don't own Shugo Chara or anything else that I might mention that should have a disclaimer. So please enjoy my story and R&R at the end. I've finally got Ikuto to shut up so he can't give any spoilers before you read it.

Ikuto: I'm not going to shut up.

Me: you're in the quiet corner that means you must be quiet!

Ikuto: *mumbles unintelligibly*

Me: that's better any way on with the story

Amu POV

"Amu? Amu?!" Ikuto yelled frantically.

"Sorry, what's going on? Ikuto hurry I'm really scared now," I answered slightly disoriented but very frightened. I looked over my seat to the back and found a brick wrapped in a piece of paper. I reached over and grabbed the note

I know your secret and you're going to pay for it

"I'm on my way please just stay in the car and don't let your guard down," Ikuto warned and hung up.

I read and re-read the note; it took me longer each time and I noticed it was my hand shaking.

It got worse each time and I couldn't read it until two large warm hands held them still. I knew it was Ikuto because I felt safe not scared. He wrapped his arms around me and I stayed frozen. I wanted to move but I couldn't. I tried to figure out what secret could have forced someone to throw a brick through my window, but nothing came to mind.

"What's that?" Ikuto questioned quietly trying not to startle me. I handed him the note and he wasn't too shocked at what it said. "I don't know who it is, but I know what the secret is," he confessed. I looked up at him expectantly, "I'd been given strict orders from the top of Easter to kill you not fall in love with you," he explained.

"Let me guess, it's really bad," I stated.

"Yeah, probably but its ok I won't allow anything to happen to you. Not while there's still air in my lungs," he promised.

"Is this what you were meant to tell me last night?" I asked remembering his last words that night.

"Yes it was. Out in the open now I guess but you still have no need to fear them," he told me and I took comfort in that knowing he was right.

Ikuto drove me home –I was still a little shaky. He kept his arm around me trying to make me less anxious.

We didn't say a word but he stayed with me, even if he did want to leave I wouldn't have let him, not now.

When I woke up Ikuto wasn't there. I was too tired to be worried so I got up and walked downstairs to get something to eat and Ikuto was sitting there eating pancakes.

"Good morning," he said getting up and hugging me, it felt nice again, safe even though there is someone stalking us.

"Have you been here all night?" I asked feeling a little guilty.

"It was worth it to make you feel safe," he said comforting me again as he kissed my forehead.

x-X-x

I was still a little agitated. It'd been about a month since my 'attack' but that wasn't exactly it. Ikuto had talked me into finally telling Papa –Mama had somehow actually kept it a secret from him.

So now I was in Ikutos' car, he knew how worried I was about telling Papa so he held my hand and I'm pretty sure I just about cut off the circulation to his but he wouldn't say anything considering the amount of support I'd need for this.

We pulled up out the front and got out of the car. Mama knew we were coming and why, so she wasn't surprised when we opened the door and came in.

We sat down in the lounge room and said our greetings to each other.

"There is a reason as to why we're here," I started hesitantly. Papa's eyes narrowed in suspicion, but Mama was totally relaxed.

"And that is?" Papa said glaring at Ikuto.

I sat there hesitant trying to put the words into an understandable order. "It's ok you can tell them," Ikuto encouraged me.

Papa's eyes widened in alarm, "Are you pregnant?" he asked in disbelief (A/N sorry couldn't help it I just read that part of Breaking Dawn disclaimer on that)

"No, no of course not I still have the ring you gave me Papa, but now I have two rings with meanings," I said holding up my left hand. All worry of Papa having a heart attack or becoming a crazed psychopath disappeared, he was smiling at the news. Realising that he was ok with me being engaged I smiled too.

"Oh congratulations Amu, I'm so happy for you," he said as he came over and hugged me.

"Is everything ok with you Papa?" I asked slightly worried.

"What? No of course not I'm just glad my little girl is happy and making the right choices," Papa said affectionately.

x-X-x

"See that wasn't so bad now was it?" Ikuto teased as he hugged me.

"I guess not, but can you blame me? I mean, I'm telling him I'm getting married to the guy I had hidden in my room when I was twelve. That does kind of scare me," I said as he pulled back.

"Yes I do see your point it does seem just a little scary," he taunted.

"Stop teasing me," I argued half-heartedly.

"You like it," he said as he nuzzled at my neck.

"Ok maybe just a little," I allowed and he started kissing my jaw, "have you told your parents yet?" I asked curious.

"No, they're still with Easter, and as long as they are and their business is not mine and vice versa," he said pulling back.

"If that's what you want then I have no problem with it," I said.

Me: YAY Amu's dad didn't kill Ikuto but the story isn't over yet. Right guys? Oh GROSS seriously guys do you have to do that.

Ikuto: it's your mind you made us.

Amu: true we're just going along with it very willingly.

Me: I don't care sides that's a lie other wise you would've shut up the first time I told you to.

Amu: she has a point

Ikuto: oh well

Me: oh no guys please, I'm about to be sick stop it

Amu: that's what you get for ending it that way.

Ikuto: you left these ideas in our head

Me: but your ideas are the one I put in there. EWWWW STOP IT NOW. Please I'll put Barbie Girl on again *shoves head phones in*

Ikuto: NOOO

Amu: oh awesome I love this song

Me: Phew that's better but I HATE THIS SONG SO MUCH. Any way please R&R.
