Lupe: Oh, my do you guys see this?

Yoru: See what? Nya~

Ikuto: *stand behind lupe and takes control of the mouse* Looking at porn again?

Lupe: *Blushes and smacks him upside the head* No, you fool, look at all these hits! *jumps up from the computer and dances happily.* It passed my expectations!

Yoru & Ikuto: The creepily happy person behind us doesn't own us or any thing affiliated with Shugo Chara.

Ikuto: I she did, trust me, she'd do unspeakable things.

Yoru: *shudders* Nya~!

Lupe: What are you telling them?

Ikuto & Yoru: Nothing, Nya~.


Chapter 2

Ikuto's POV

Just one look... I stopped and stepped back from the well known music room I had once used. It was then that I'd heard her voice. Such sorrow; was I the cause of it? I would've stayed leaning against the wall listening to her. "Amu.... you're voice...." My eyes closed as I pushed from the class' wall and strolled to the small place in which I was incharge of.

With books in tow, I opened the sliding door. The girl's gasps could be heard, as well as their giggles. There was no helping the smirk that'd come to appear on my face. Just as I'd placed the books on the podium, the bell set off giving a message to all on campus to scurry to their assigned slots.

"Ikuto-nii-san!" My eyes shifted to the kiddy king. His entire being was in a state of shock.

"Hotori-san, class has begun." I glared at him, my distaste for the boy evident in my eyes. I picked up the roll sheet and quickly looked over it. One name stood out, but upon quickly scanning the room she was nowhere. "Minna, out of the desks. As I call your name you will sit in the seat I assign you." Briskly moving to the right, I pointed at the first desk. "How this is determined is by your class rank. Any complaints then you take it up with me, got it?"

There was a low hum of the student's voices. Just as I was about to tell the first student where to sit, the door opened. I turned my eyes from the sheet to the entrance. It was the first person I expected... doing the last thing expected.

My eyes were glued to her as I took in the sight. I would've embraced her right then and there, if only I wasn't the new teacher. My sick and twisted mind couldn't help but think that Amu looked beautiful with those rivers of tears streaming down her face. The kiddy king blocked my view of her, his face showing concern, but not as before. My eyes widened with what happened next. Amu slapped away the hand Tadase placed on her shoulder.

"Don't touch me." Tadase's exterior showed no emotion for her as he stepped back and returned to his seat. Before anthing more could be said, I'd grabbed Hinamori by her wrist, walked out and closed the door behind me.

"Let me go..." Amu? My eyes never left hers as she tiltend her head down, probably staring at the ground. She ripped her wrists from my grip and wiped at her eyes furiously.

"Why the tears? I would've thought you'd be ecstatic to see me?" She lifted her head, her long pink locks along with it. Her deep golden pools for eyes showed so many emotions on top of another. I had no clue what to say anymore.

"All these years, Ikuto..." Her tears stemmed from her eyes and fell down in two little streams. Her anguish and anger showing through more than ever before. All she did was shake her head and coolly walk past me and into the class room. I looked up at the ceiling my long bangs shielding my eyes from the outside world, not knowing what just happened, only that my chest ached.


Lupe: Well, there you have it. I'm sorry that it took so long for such a small chapter. _ Something always comes up whenever I put up a new story. Hope you enjoyed it.

Rima: Don't forget your dedications.

Lupe: Oh! That's right. *smacks herself up the head.* I'd like to dedicate this installment of Conflictions to my first reviewers: Himeka Tsukiyomi, BerryHinakoto, and darkprincessmew.

Everyone: Bye bye! Until next time. ^_^
