Ahahaha~ I hope you liked my little cliffhanger... =w=... Well then. I don't wan to keep you waiting so, enjoy~!
I do not own Shugo Chara or any of it's characters expect my own.
"You're such an idiot... Why would you honestly do that...?"
"Because..." Ikuto hesitated. "Because I love you... I don't want to see the one who's most precious to me turn into one of those things. I won't ever let you turn into one of them. Even if it means I have to turn into a zombie myself."
"IDIOT!" The sound of skin hitting skin filled the air. There was now a big red mark on his cheek. "ISN'T IT OBVIOUS ENOUGH THAT I LOVE YOU AS WELL!? DO YOU THINK I WANT TO SEE YOU TURN INTO ONE OF THOSE MONSTERS!?"
Ikuto starred at me deadpanned. He slowly moved so that he was now leaning against the wall. He grabbed my arm and pulled me into his lap. He hugged me, not letting go for a second. I could feel small wet drops falling on the top of my head.
"I'd never be able to forgive myself if you had gotten bitten." He said.
He lowered his head, pressing his lips against mine. He was being gentle with this. This wasn't a rough, needy kiss. This one came from pure love.
I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer. He deepened the kiss a little, as so did I.
Tears started flowing out of me again.
Ikuto, who noticed this, said during the kiss, "I love you, Amu."
"USAGI! MEI!" I screamed out their names as loud as I could. I didn't care if they started coming. I just needed them now. And I mean now.
"USAGI! YOU CAN COME OUT NOW! YOU DON'T NEED TO HIDE ANYMORE SO PLEASE... Please come out..."
Usagi was good at healing and such. That's why I wanted her to come. To see if she could do anything. Because no way am I letting Ikuto turn into one of them. And I'm pretty sure Ikuto doesn't want to turn into one of them either.
"USAGIIII!"
Ikuto's POV
I could hear Amu outside, screaming Usagi's name so loud it almost made my ears hurt.
"Ah..." I slowly lifted my hand to my neck, lighting touching the bite. I winced as pain jolted throughout my body. I threw down my hand.
I looked down at my hand. Why wasn't I turning yet? And I also kept fighting even though I was bitten? Is that even possible?
Hmph. I guess loving someone really can make you give up anything just to keep them safe.
"Usagi!" Amu practically sobbed. She really was loud. Amu, Usagi, and Mei came in, running towards me.
"Right here," Amu pointed at my bite.
Usagi moved over to my side, examining the bite. She took her backpack off her back and rummaged through it. She got out a few cotton balls and alcohol. She poured some on a cotton ball. "Sorry Ikuto. This will sting. A lot."
She lightly dabbed the cotton ball on the bite. I winced, all the air inside of me leaving. I started to squirm, wanting the stinging to stop.
She pulled away when she was done. She got out a flashlight and examined it. Her eyes widen at the sight.
A tear started to slowly fall down Usagi's cheek. She shook her head and stood up. She turned towards Amu, covering her face with her bangs.
"Amu..." She started. "There's nothing I can do... Just by looking at it, I know I can't... I'm so sorry..."
"Eh...?" Amu said.
"Amu-."
"NO! NO WAY AM I KILLING YOU!" Amu shouted.
"Amu, we don't have a choice..." I said.
"I-I can't..."
"You can."
Amu hesitated. She nodded. I gave her my gun. She pulled it up towards my head. Her hand wouldn't stop shaking... "I-I-I..." Amu stuttered. "No." Her knees buckled and she dropped the gun. She starred at the ground, crying her heart out for the millionth time now.
I turned towards Usagi. I mouthed the words, 'Drag her away. Take her. Help her. Protect her. Please.'
Usagi nodded. She turned towards Mei, who also nodded. They slowly walked towards Amu, each grabbing one arm. They started pulling her, using all their strength to do so.
"What...?" Amu said, clearly confused. "Wait, what... NO. NO, USAGI LET ME GO. MEI, LISTEN TO ME. LET ME GO!"
"Mei, move the lid." Usagi said.
Mei moved the lid and came back down. She wrapped her arms around Amu's waist. Usagi climbed up, reaching down waiting for Mei to get Amu up enough for her to get her out here.
Mei slowly forced Amu up the ladder. She grabbed one of Amu's arm, throwing it up towards Usagi's. Usagi grabbed it and pulled her up. She threw her out, Amu rolling till her back hit a large rock.
Mei looked back at me and sadly smiled. "Goodbye... Ikuto." Mei climbed up the ladder and closed the lid.
That was the first time... Mei called me by my name...
This chapter was probably kind of lame. Short also. Well, I hope you liked it~ See you in the next chapter~! ^w^
