Me: I'm nine reviews away from 100!!

Ikuto: Somehow…

Lulu: Start writing!

Me: …but someone needs to do the disclaimer!

Lulu: Hana-chan doesn't own Shugo Chara or us.

Ikuto: Thank god…

Lulu:WRITE BEFORE I KILL YOUUUUUUUUUU!!

Me: Writing…I'm writing…oh and by the way…NINE MORE REVIEWS TO 100!!

Ikuto: You already told them that.


Recap:

"I know exactly what you should do!" a sweet voice said cheerfully. Amu and Suu entered the tent.

"Look Suu, I'm very sorry, but I've heard that so many times," I told her wearily. These people were going to kill me!

"But this will work for sure-desu!" she said innocently.

"I don't think—"

"You…you don't believe me-desu?" Suu asked, her eyes filling with tears.

"Well…no. I mean not like that it's just…you know," I said, but I could feel my resolve cracking.

"Suu's always right," Amu said as she came up from behind the chara.

"What the hell," I muttered. "Well, Rima can't possibly hate me anymore than she already does so I guess it doesn't really matter."

"Yay!" Amu and Suu squealed and I braced myself for hell just as I began to feel all my bruises with a vengeance.

End recap.


"Suu, you're a genius!" I said happily. I had no idea why I hadn't thought of this before. Plus, this was something I could actually do that wasn't completely ridiculous: cook something for her. Plus, it would give me time to talk to her and (if the food was good enough) possibly win her heart. And I'm one kick-ass cook if I do say so myself.

As I baked the chocolate-chip-and-peanut-butter cookies I hummed to myself along with Suu and Amu as Ikuto and Lulu watched with eyebrows raised. Well, Lulu was watching me cook, but Ikuto was more checking out Amu…whatever. The sweet scent of deliciously made cookies filled with love filled my kitchen and even Lulu and Ikuto showed interest. I smirked.

They wouldn't laugh at me ever again! They would even beg to become my slaves when I denied them my delicious cookies!!

MWA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!

Sorry. Had a creepy Tadase moment back there…may his soul rest in peace after face planting the ground with a loud thud, with little laser beams shot around, and being electrocuted in a way that looked rather painful. Then having a hole open in the ground and promptly falling into it with an even louder thud that looked more painful than the first fall, also having a pack of rabid dogs coming running at you right after then charging straight into a wood chipper.

All in one security system…

Although I must admit, after being dressed up in plastic knight costume, it's kind of hard to feel pity for the person who made you do it even if they—well, you know what happened.

"All done!" Suu squeaked as the timer dinged, announcing that my deliciousness was ready.

"Let's go," I said cheerfully. I was feeling dangerously optimistic about this plan, something I should've learned seven attempts ago was nota good thing. Lulu, Suu, Amu, Ikuto and I made our way to Rima's house. Sadly, I was skipping the whole way, something Ikuto seemed to find intensely amusing. In between the moments he was hitting on Amu. I had to give him credit for being so…persistent.

"What smells like cookies?" someone asked suspiciously. It was Rima who had just come out of her house. Her arms were crossed and she was scowling. When I actually looked into her eyes, I saw them turn a light shade of pink, which boosted my ego even more.

"Here," I said cheerfully. "Have one."

I could understand her suspicious glare considering I had a black eye and was covered in bruises that she had given me and now I was giving her cookies. I heard Rima mumbled something like 'masochistic' under her breath, but she took one anyway and ate it. I watched and waited for her to grin and beg for me. I waited for her drag me inside the house so she could plead for me to cook more of the delicious cookies. I could hear it in my head now:

"Oh Nagi-sama! Marry me so we can live together happily and you can make me cookies ever day!" Rima would beg and I would be most happy to oblidge. But because things never went the way I'd hoped them to go, Rima said none of these things. Instead her eyes widened in horror and she coughed.

My would-be beloved tossed one of the delicious cookies on the ground and I watched her face turn red with fury. Wait. No. Her face was turning red and then in occurred to me: in her school records which I had checked like the stalker I am, it said she was allergic to peanut-butter,

Well…this isn't good…

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO TRY AND POISON ME!!" Rima shrieked and darted back inside the house.

"Looks like that didn't work as well as I hoped," I said miserably. Ikuto snicker and Amu scowled at him.

"Don't laugh," she scolded. "Nagihiko is suffering right now!"

"Well, duh," Ikuto snorted. "Why the hell do you think I'm laughing?"

"That's harsh," I said wryly. "Although not what I'd call surprising."

"Ah poor Nagi-kun," Miki said and Amu grinned. I sighed deeply. There was no hope for me. The one thing I thought I had a chance at doing failed miserably and really, what else was there to do?

"C'mon Miki! Give us an idea!" Amu cheered. Miki thought for a second and then whispered in my ear.

"No way," I said exhaustedly.

"It's how I got Yoru," she told me sweetly then froze.

"Since when?" Amu and Ikuto demanded and the same time. Miki blushed and I rolled my eyes.

As coincidental timing, Yoru appeared and flew over.

"What's up-nya?" he asked grinning and Miki gulped.

"Well…" she said slowly and so began the Miki-Yoru-Amu-Ikuto drama. Miki broke out of the whole thing just in time to look at me and ask:

"So…what do you think?"

"I'll give it a shot," I said and prayed that this would work. I didn't get my hopes too high.


Me: Poor Nagi...again. Ah well, this fic is ending soon so of you guys would help me with those next nine reviews to get 100...please?

Ikuto: Yoru...got a girl...and I didn't get Amu?

Me: Maybe later...OK, yeah, definitely later.

Ikuto: Yay!

Me: Reeeeevvviieeeeewwww!!
