Chapter 7: That One Rainy Night
Is This The End Of The Moment? Or Just A Beautiful Unfolding, Of A Love That Will Never Be, Or Maybe.. Be
"How long is this gonna take Ren?" Ikuto asked impatiently, just ready to get the assignment over with. He layed back on the couch that was in Rens' office, just laying straight down, playing with a ball of yarn, just like a kitty.
"Shouldn't take much. Maybe just a couple hours." Ren answered Ikuto back, but with an annoyed tone. He set down the pointer stick and walked over to Ikuto. Ikuto looked up at Ren, and a slight 'Hmm?' came from him before getting his ball of yarn taken away by Ren.
"Aww," Ikuto pouted, "that was my ball of yarn man! Not cool!" Ikuto sat up, and gave Ren a dirty look.
"Shut up! Go get ready!" Ren pointed to the preparation rooms as he held the ball of yarn tightly in his other hand.
"Tssk." Ikuto got up from the couch, and started walking over to the rooms. "Bitch." He said in a normal tone, loud enough for Ren to hear. And he did, but he just faked laugh at Ikutos' immaturity.
Everything That I Never Thought Could Happen, Or Ever Come To Pass And, I Wonder, If Maybe, Maybe I Could Be
Amu set down a heavy load of boxes that she was carrying, down on her bed. Afterwards, she turned around, only to see a messy brown hair, emerald green eyes, best friend. He stumbled on a couple of things that were on the floor, before making it to the bed, but managed to catch himself. The boxes were in the way of his sight.
After setting them on the bed, he started to pant, as if he just got done running five miles or something.
"How much boxes are left?" He said between pants.
"Ummm.." The honey glazed eyes girl thought to herself. "Shouldn't be much left. Probably just a couple more trips." Kukai groaned, he just wanted to fall on the ground, and do nothing. But Amu just dragged him back outside.
Outside, there were two guys, both shirtless, one with short-ish, long-ish hair, and the other with spiky crazy black hair, with red and white highlights in it. Amu and Kukai walked outside, to see the two slackers. Ako was reading a book, and Zuko was just staring at nothing, bored obviously.
"Why'd you guys take off your shirts?" Amu asked as she walked up to them.
"Cause it's hot dumbass." Zuko mocked Amu, while showing off his toned muscles, and winking at Amu. But she just rolled her eyes.
She picked up a box that was on the ground, and shoved it in Zukos' arms. "Work. Now." She said bluntly. "Hmmph. You're so not cute." Zuko rolled his eyes this time, and that made Amu put on her little sister face. "Zuko.." She said, with fake teary eyes, and her voice cracking. That just hurt Zuko deep.
"Awww, i'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He tried to make her not cry. Then Amu smiled sweetly at him.
"Nii-san, put those boxes in my room?" She asked nicely.
"Anything for you!" Zuko said with a big ass smile. He started walking towards the house, but stopped, and look back at Amu.
"Oh, that act doesn't work on me anymore, Nee-san." Amu broke out of her little girl act. She turned frankly at Zuko, and a bead of sweat ran down the side of her face. 'Did he just call me babe?'
"Oh, and don't call me 'Nii-san.' Cause you're my Nee-san." He said seductively, and smirked at Amu.
"Alright, alright." Kukai finally jumped in. "Zuko." He pointed at Zuko. "Get your lazy ass back in the house and set those damn boxes down!"
"Shut the fuck up." But Zuko did as told. As he went in the house, Amu went all sad-like.
"Kukai!" She whined, in her real little sister voice. "He finally cracked! He even called me babe!"
"He's called you babe thousands of times before?"
"Yeah, but this time, he doesn't buy my act!"
"Awwww.." Kukai couldn't resist but to give Amu his big brotherly love hug. But after a couple seconds into the hug, she broke loose, and started to scold Ako.
"Ey ey, Ako! You're always the one saying we need to be more responsible! So why are you slacking off and not doing work?"
"I'm taking my break." Ako didn't even dare to take his eyes off the book. "You just had to take your shirt off too." Amu complained.
"It's hot. It's not like you've never seen us half naked before." It's true. She's had a bunch of sleepovers with them, and they always walk around half naked when they do. Amu didn't really mind, but sometimes she wished they'd at least put some clothes on sometimes. But she didn't mind, because she got to see all three of their toned muscle, HOT, bodies.
"You can take your shirt off too." Ako said, this time, looking at Amu, with a perverted smirk on his face. 'Oh God.' She thought. 'His perverted side kicked in, once again.'
"How come you guys act like this on hot days?" She asked curiously. For sometime now, she's been noticing it.
"It's the heat." Kukai started. Amu turned to him, and saw that he was taking off his shirt, too. "It gets to us."
"Fuck yes." Zuko walked in. "It's something about the heat that makes us guys even hornier than usual."
"Indeed." Ako agreed, now returning back to his book.
"Then don't tease me!"
"You're the only girl here!" He shot back.
"So.. Just.. Tease the flowers or something!"
"What?" Kukai said in a really confused voice.
"Flowers aren't as much fun." Zuko said with a big smirk. Amu was getting pretty nervous here. "Ako, help?" She pleaded for him to change the subject.
"So Amu, why did you make us help you carry a shit ton of boxes into your house anyways?" Again, not taking his eyes off, granting Amus' request.
"Oh, 'cause, i've been watching a lot of home makeover shows, and reading magazines, so I got inspired to re-do my room."
"All those boxes for your room? I thought it was for like, your whole house or something." Kukai scratched his head, not noticing the quick change of subjects.
"I have a lot to do." She groaned, and fell back on the patch of soft grass. Followed by her friends. Kukai on her right, Ako on her left, without his book, and Zuko next to Ako.
"How come Ikuto didn't come?" Kukai asked, covering his eyes with his arm, cause the sun was too bright. Amu just sighed.
"He got caught up at work.." She reached into her pocket and grabbed her phone. She held it up in front of her face, to look at the time.
6:23
"I think he should be done soon.." She slid her phone back into her pocket, and closed her eyes. A gentle breeze from the east came across Amu, and ran through her hair. The leaves from the trees created a peaceful sound, that made you feel at ease. And the grass rubbed up against her body, soft sweet grass.
Perfect.
The sun was starting to set. It was only the ending of February. So the sun would set around six. The sun hid behind clouds, but some rays broke through, and created a beautiful soft purple color in the sky. Clouds were puffy, and the sky was just.. unbelieveable..
Perfect..
The breeze got a bit stronger, and as Amu layed on the soft grass, she felt like she was flying. Undisturbed..
Perfect...
Everything was perfect...
As Amu imagined herself flying, a tall, hot, blue hair guy appeared in her mind.
Ikuto.
And as soon as she imagined Ikuto, she opened her eyes, and the breeze suddenly stopped.
Ruined...
This moment would have been beyond perfect, if Ikuto was there to share it with her. She slid her hand down her shorts' pocket, and brought out her phone again. But she didnt turn it on. She only held it up her face, to stare at the little keychain that hangs from it. At the end of the keychain, was a little toy blue cat.
Ikuto bought it for her. And she attached it to her phone.
She stared at it with her honey glazed eyes, such beautiful eyes. But she was feeling lonely. Even though her best friends were with her, she still felt lonely. She needed Ikuto. But he was somewhere, killing someone.
God, she hated his job.
But she cheered up, and thought that spending this 'perfect' moment with her friends was also fun. She put her phone back into her pocket, and decided to close her eyes again. And the gentle breeze from the east came back.
"Hey guys.." Amu called out to them, to snap them out of there thoughts.
"What?" Ako asked, turning his body slightly to face her.
"I love you guys." She said in the most calm voice, ever, in life. Like if she were dying or something. Ako laid on his back again, and grabed Amus' hand before closing his eyes. Kukai did the same, but with her right hand. And even though Kukai and Zuko were like, pratically grown men, they still grabbed eachother hands, to make it a group thing.
And as the breeze got stronger, their eyes became tired, and all but Zuko drifted into a sweet sleep. He opened his eyes again, and started into the sky. He felt uneasy, and bothered by his jealousy.
All You Ever Dreamed, Cause You Are
"No! Please! I have kids! Two daughters and a son!" The guy took out his wallet, and held pictures up to Ikutos' face. Though, it was hard to see them because the mans' hands were shaking from fear.
What Ikuto did catch, one little girl was laughing and smiling, as she was splashing water on her sisters face. The sister that was getting splashed on was covering her face, and laughing also. The big brother had his legs in the pool, but he sat on the ground, laughing at his little sisters. The wife was standing next to her son, smiling, looking at her daughters play. And the man was behind his son, ready to push him into the pool, and yell surprise.
It pained Ikuto to assassinate people with families. Especially the ones with families that are this happy.
Ikuto wanted to let him go, he didn't want to kill this man. But he had to. Ikuto closed his eyes, and his eyebrow started to twitch. He turned his head away, and said in a sympathetic, but strained voice, "I'm sorry."
He pulled the trigger, and shot the bullet. All you heard was blood splatter against a wall, and a dead body fall on the ground.
Silence.
Ikutos' bangs casted a shadow on his face. He felt horrible killing that man. He feels horrible killing people. He hates this. He hates his job.
During this kind of times, he wants Amu. Correction: He needs Amu. He needed to be comforted. But not the type where you hug someone and say, "It's going to be okay." No. Not that type of comfort.
Sex.
He wants sex. He needs sex. But Amu wont give that to him, not yet. So instead, he decides to go over to Amus' place and finally get a kiss from Amu. They've never kissed mouth to mouth before. And now, he thinks its time. At least thats comfort. A comfort that... warms him up inside.
He puts his gun back into his jacket, and walks away. Pretends it never happened, hides his pain.
Like always.
Beautiful Inside, So Lovely And I, Can't See Why I'd Do Anything Without You
"Done!" Amu exclaimed as she set down the last box. She stepped back to look at what she've done.
It was just boxes stacked ontop of another. She organized everything, so everything will be ready tomorrow, when she starts re-doing her room.
She wiped some sweat off her forehead.
Knock Knock.
Her mouth went open, and she turned around, knowing who it is already.
"Ikuto!" She exclaimed again. Behind the glass door, was a smirking Ikuto, waiting to be let inside. Amu ran over, and unlocked the door, and freaking slid the door open so hard, it made a loud noise when it hit the ledge.
'Geez.' Ikuto tried to hold back his laughter.
"Ikuto!" She exclaimed again, only this time, she jumped into his arms.
Ikuto lightly chuckled. "I missed you too."
"Not as much as me! You missed the most beautiful-ist weather ever today! And you were at work!" She frowned and looked at the ground, still clinging onto his shirt.
Work.
Damn, Ikuto did not want to remember that. Some of his sadness came back, and his bangs casted a shadow on his face again. And he remembered the main reason he came in the first place.
"Lets go inside." He insisted, bringing his eyes back into the light again.
"O-" She was cut off because Ikuto started to walk inside. And Amu had to walk backwards because she was still clinging onto his shirt. He slid the door closed behind him.
"Whats that?" He pointed to the boxes.
"Oh, those are stuff that I'm going to use to re-do my room."She said, as she let go of his shirt.
"How come?"
"'Cause my room is so modern and boring. I want to pain it, and remodel some stuff, and stuff like that."
"Sorry I wasn't here to help."
"It's cool. Kukai, Zuko, and Ako came over to help."
Since Amus' back was facing Ikuto, she was startled when his hand slammed against the wall next to her. She turned around, and she flinched when the same thing happened, only with his other hand. She was pinned, cornered, or whatever against the wall.
She started to blush. Ikutos' bangs were casting a shadow on his face again. He leaned his face closer. Closer, and closer, until his lips were one centimeter away from hers.
Amu was nervous, and she didn't know what to do. She slid down. Lower and lower. But Ikuto just followed her down. Until he was sitting right ontop of Amus' pussy. He pressed against it, so she could feel his large cock. He was kneeing down, both his knees keeping Amu from getting up.
Amu was getting turned on.
Ikuto even more.
"I had a bad day at work." He said seductively. He brought his face closer to hers again. "Comfort me."
He lost it. It was suppose to be a sweet, cute kiss. But he let his hormones take over, and tried to kiss her, his way. Ikuto was ready. He was ready. He wanted it. It. To do it. Sex.
Amus' face was so flushed, that she started to sweat again. She didn't know what to do. She wasn't so sure to kiss him, yet. They haven't even kissed mouth to mouth. And she wanted it to be special. But she thought Ikuto was ruining it right now. She knew it was his hormones talking. Not him.
"S-Stop.." She managed to choke out. Ikuto only smirked, and started to lean his face closer.
"Stop.." She whispered. A couple more centimeters.
"Stop.." She said a little bit louder this time. His lips were about to touch hers, and he started to bring his tongue out.
"Stop!" She screamed out this time, as she pushed him away. Ikuto was confused. But then that confusion turned into anger. He was about to kiss her, and she pushes him away? He then realized that his hormones went away, and he caught everything that happened. But he was still mad.
"What was that for?" He raised his voice.
"You were-"
"What? About to kiss you? Duh!"
"But why were you trying to seduce me? Aren't 'first kisses' suppose to be romantic?"
"Where do you hear that stupid shit? A first kiss can be expressed in any way!"
"But thats not the way I want to do it! I want it to be special! Not your hormones taking over!"
"Why does it have to be your way? Huh? What if I like it this way?"
"What if I don't?"
Ikuto didn't answer. He gets what shes trying to say, but he thought it was unfair of her trying to decide this.
He slammed his right hand against the wall again, pinning her, again. With his left hand, he grabbed her shirt, and lightly pulled her up to his face. He leaned in again, close again, until he was an inch away from her mouth.
"Don't pretend you don't like this." He said seductively. Her face went flushed again. She had an uneasy look on her face. She looked down at his hand, that was still grabbing her shirt. She could see her bra since she was only wearing a spaghetti shirt.
She grabbed his hand, and she could feel his veins popping out. He was clenching on really hard. It scared Amu a little. But even though his hand was so tight, he was still gentle with her. Then she gripped it, and lightly removed it. He was nice enough to let her.
"Thats not the point.." She turned her head away. Ikuto was infuriated. He clenched his teeth. He got up. And Amu did too.
"You know what your problem is? You're too prude!" He yelled, really angry.
"I'm not prude! I'm just not ready..."
Ikuto started to laugh mockingly at Amu.
"Ready?" He asked her as if she were stupid.
"Oh so like what? What if I just met you, and I wanted to give you a hug? Ohhhh, but you're not ready for that, aren't ya? Then i'd be all like, 'Excuse me miss.' "
Amu just lowered her head.
"Who cares if you're not ready? You're not supposed to be! I just came here, from a bad day at work, and wanted a kiss from my girlfriend! And she wont give that to me? I mean, we've been going out for over a month now, and we haven't even had our first kiss! That's stupid! This is stupid!"
Amu didn't say anything. She just kept her head lowered.
Ikuto had enough. "Pffffffffffft." He turned around, and slid the door open. He stepped out, and slammed it shut. He put one foot on the bar, and jumped. Jumped to the next building. Just like a cat. He held his tears back.
Amu finally showed her face in the light. Her face was still flushed, but wet. Covered in tears. And she started to make sobbing noises. She didn't want him to leave. She just wanted to hug him.
You Are, And When I'm Not With You, I Know That It's True
The fight was a couple hours ago.
Ikuto walked over to the fridge, but stumbled a couple times on the way there. He opened the fridge, and got another bottle of tequila that he bought on the way to his house. He walked back to the table, stumbled a couple times more, and sat down on the table. His vision was blurry, and he was super dizzy.
He rested his head on the table, as he saw his hand open the bottle of tequila. Then, he attempted to bring his head back up, so he can take another sip.
He just wanted to drink. Drink, drink, and drink. Drink all the pain away. Fighting with Amu affected him more than he thought. He felt terrible for yelling at her. It was his hormones taking over when that happened, but he was still mad at her. He felt guilty, but mad at the same time. And add it all up, and it adds more confusion.
It hurts his head.
He tried to take another sip, but he ends up throwing the bottle to the ground. The glass shattered, and the tequila was spread across the floor. He had enough. He started to feel really sick to his stomach, so he decides to just go to bed. He didn't even bother to turn the lights off in the kitchen. He was really starting to feel sick. So he just took his time walking over to his room.
And when he did, he tried to hold the vomit back. He walked over to his bed, sat down, and got into the covers without changing into his pj's. And he fell asleep, but not a sweet slumber.
Back at Amus' house, it was dark. All the lights were turned off, and she was hiding under the covers. She was crying quietly to herself. She too felt guilty. All Ikuto wanted was a kiss, but she wouldn't give him that. Maybe she was being prude with him. But she was still mad at him.
Even more confusion.
But after a couple more hours, she managed to fall asleep.
That I'd Rather Be Anywhere But Here Without You
2:57 P.M.
The sky is dull gray. It sucks the life out of you. The sun didn't even bother to show up today. Such weak light peeked through Amus' window. And since its been hitting her face since 8 A.M. she finally decides to wake up.
She slowly gets up, and peeks outside the window. So gray, so dull. It looks like it's gonna rain later. Perfect weather for her mood. She was sad, upset, lonely. She just wanted to make up with Ikuto. She wanted him to just barge in and hug her. She doesn't care about the kiss anymore.
If Ikuto wants a seductive, sexy kiss, she'll give it to him. It's the least she can do for being so prude.
Her face is so pale, and her eyes are like a more muddish gold color. They're not radiant anymore. Thats how lonely she feels. Then she remembers that she had band practice that day. She groaned, and fell back into her bed. She didn't feel like going out today. She would just call Kukai later, and tell him she couldn't make it. She crawled into a ball, hugged herself, and just layed still for another couple hours.
Ikuto finally woke up. He was hot and sweaty. He didn't vomit last night, but it reeked. He was sweating tequila all night. And he woke up sticky. Great way to start your morning. Er, in his case, afternoon. He got up, and looked outside his window. Boring. Perfect weather for his mood.
Unlike Amu, he actually got out of his bed, and went to the kitchen to clean up the mess. And after that, he sprayed a shit ton of Febreeze everywhere, to get the smell out. He went back to his room, and started to strip. He took of his shirt, and his jeans. He thew them into the laundry bin.
He walked in his bathroom with a towel, but he stopped when he passed the mirror. His skin was also pale. But his eyes remained the same. Sapphire. Heh, this proves he carries dead eyes all day, everyday. His skin was all wet and shiny from the tequila, it disgusted him.
He took his boxers off, and stepped into the shower, and let the hot, steamy water hit his face. And wet his whole body.
His muscular body was wet, and his amazing hair was wet, and shiny. Just imagined a naked Ikuto, wet, everywhere.
Am I turning you on yet?
Is This A Natural Feeling? Or Is It Just Me Bleeding, All My Thoughts And Dreams
After two hours of trying to fall back asleep, and failing, she decided to get out of bed. She didn't feel like staying home anymore. She'd feel even more lonely than she already does.
She doesn't feel like being with her friends, because they'll ask about what happened, and she doesn't want to talk about it.
She feels like going downtown, and being around strangers. No matter how sad or upset you are, or act, nobody will bother to ask you whats wrong.
Perfect.
She got ready, and skipped breakfast. She wasn't hungry. But she made sure to fill Drakes' food bowl. As she was buttoning her jacket, Drake walked in, whimpering. Amu turned around to see whats wrong, and she only saw Drake with his puppy dog eyes, and his ears down. She felt bad for leaving him alone. She kneed down, and Drake walked over to her.
"Awww.. Boy, I'm sorry. But I just need some fresh air. I'll be back soon. Promise!" She pet his head, and faked a smile. But Drake knew she was faking it. Thats how much he loves her. He started to whimper more.
"I'll make it up to you. I'll take you for the longest walk ever tomorrow. Promise! Kay?" She petted his head more.
Draked whimpered again. But then gave her a bark for a 'yes!'.
She got back up, finished buttoning her jacket, and she was out the door.
In Hope That You Will Be With Me, Or
Kukai walked into the studio.
"Fuck, its freezing out there!" He unbuttoned his jacket, and threw it on the nearest chair.
Capacity in the room: 3.
They're missing one member. The most important member. The singer: Amu.
"Hey, where's Amu?" He asked, looking around for her.
"She didn't show up." Ako said, reading a book again.
"We thought she'd be with you." Zuko said as he twirled his drum stick between his fingers.
"Naw. I tried calling her, but she didn't answer. I thought she'd be here already."
Ako set down his book. This meant serious business.
"This is a problem."
"I agree." Kukai said, taking off his scarf.
"Seriously, we haven't practiced in over a month. We've all been too busy with other stuff. And Amu is just hanging out with Ikuto all the time. It's like we don't matter anymore." Zuko said in disgust.
"I disagree. This band is really important to Amu. She loves Dark Alcoholics. If she skipped practice, then that must mean something serious happened."
"Straight up."
"I'll go look for her then." Zuko set his drum stick down, grabbed his jacket, and was out the door. A moment of silence passed by before the talking started again.
"Hey Ako."
"Yes?"
"You don't think that..."
"To be honest, I've been noticing it for a while now."
Is This A Moment To Remember, Or Just A Cold Day In December? I Wonder, If Maybe, Or Maybe I Could Be
Ikuto, too, was downtown. He too didn't feel like staying in all day. He walked the streets, hands in pockets, back hunched over.
It seemed like everybody was just gray, and he was the only color person there, barely. He stared at the ground the whole time he walked. He didn't know where he was going. He just kept walking wherever his feet took him.
And as he walked the streets, he saw Zuko was nearby. He only stared for a couple seconds, but then he hid in an alleyway before Zuko saw him. He knew that if he saw him, he would ask him about Amu. And Amu isn't someone he wants to be thinking about at the moment.
He hid in the darkest corner of the alley, and just waited for Zuko to pass by, and when he did, he waited a couple minutes, to make sure he was gone.
'I wonder what he's doing here.'
All You Ever Dreamed, Cause You Are, Beautiful Inside, So Lovely And I, Can't See Why I'd Do Anything Without You
Night was coming, and Amu was still wandering the streets. She hasn't eaten all day, but that didn't bother her. She wasn't hungry.
Step.
Step.
Step.
Step.
Step.
BUMP.
"Ah! I'm sorry!" She bowed her head down. She wasn't even paying attention to where she was going. But then she looked up, and saw who it was.
Zuko.
"There you are!" Zuko exclaimed in a worried tone. "Where were you? You didn't show up for practice."
"I'm sorry."
"I mean, like, are we even important anymore? Does this band matter to you anymore? We haven't had practice in a long time, and you don't show up."
Amu stayed quiet. Zuko saw the sadness she was hiding. He looked around, and noticed that Ikuto wasn't with her.
'If Ikutos' not with her, then she must be upset about something that happened inbetween them...' He came to a conclusion. It's best not to bring up Ikuto.
"I'm sorry for getting mad. What happened? Are you alright?" He put his hands on her shoulder to snap out of her thoughts.
"Huh? Oh, I'm fine." She faked another smile. Again, Zuko didn't buy it. After a moment of silence passed by, he figured he'd cheer her up.
"Come on." He grabbed her hand, and led her to a park that was nearby. After getting there, they both sat down on one of the benches.
"So tell me, what's wrong Amu? I hate seeing you being troubled like this."
She stayed quiet for another while before answering his question. And after explaining everything that happen, Zukos' green side grew stronger. He got up, and reached his hand out to her.
"Come on." He said again. She took his hand, and he led her to a big-ish hill that was part of the park. The night has set, and the sky was dark. There were no stars, since the clouds covered everything. And the lights of an Amusement park that was somewhat close, lit up.
After leading her up to that hill, he let go of her hand, and stood on the edge of the cliff, and stared off into the lake.
"Amu..." He trailed off. She lifter her head up.
"So what does this mean for you and Ikuto?" Amu stayed quiet again, but decided to answer.
"We're just mad at eachother, I guess. That's it. We're not going to break up."
"But what if there's someone better?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean..." He trailed off again. "What if there's someone better for you?"
Amu didn't answer. Zuko turned around to face Amu. And he looked her right in the eye. And the next thing she knew, she was being embraced by Zuko. He wrapped his arms around her, and rested his head on her shoulder.
"Like me.." He said, muffled. Amu didn't bother to hug back. She just stood there. 'Is this a confession?' Her heart started to speed up, 'cause she was getting nervous. Then Zuko put his hands on her shoulders, and looked at her with a serious face.
"What about me?" He asked.
"I..." She trailed off.
"Let me be your lover, Amu." This sent shudders down her back. She was shocked. A confession from her best friend?
"Since when..?" She asked, eager to know when this started.
"Since.. In middle school Amu. Even though I was a flirter. I flirted with every pretty girl throughout middle school, and all of high school so far. But.. you've always been the one who makes my heart race. Everyday, when I'm upset, or when I'm feeling down, you're always there. You make me smile, you make me laugh. You have a passion for music, and when you sing, you're so passionate and beautiful. It gives me butterflies. I've had a crush on you since middle school. And this year was the year I was going to confess my love for you.." A moment of silence passed by before he continued.
"But then Ikuto came into your life. And he took your heart. And when you guys started going out, I was upset, but I accepted it, and tried to move on. But.. I just couldn't... So I tried hiding it. But then I decided to just tease you, like I always do. So things wouldn't seem different..." ...
"I don't hate Ikuto, but.. I'm just jealous.. So please, Amu. Go out with me! I love you Hinamori Amu. Please feel the same way about me.." And with that, he wrapped his arms around her again.
Green = Jelousy.
After a while of silence, she finally spoke up.
"I..." She trailed off again. He let go of her, but she held onto his shirt.
"I'm sorry Zuko.. But.. I don't feel that way about you. I mean.. I love you, but as a friend. A really close friend.. But.. That's all there is to it. So, I'm sorry. But my heart stays loyal to Ikuto."
The thing they didn't know was that Ikuto was hiding in a tree nearby. He saw them walking together, so he couldn't help but to follow them, and hide.
'That's my girl.' Ikuto smiled as he leaned back on the tree trunk.
Zuko wasn't so happy with her response. But he accepted her answer. And he gave her a friendly hug. And this time, she hugged back.
And before they broke off the hug, Ikuto quietly jumped down from the tree, and left. So he wouldn't get caught.
"Do you want me to walk you home?" Zuko asked.
"Naw.. There's still a lot of people out, so I'll be fine. We'll meet up tomorrow and practice in the studio. Promise."
Zuko let her go, and smiled at her. "Okay." A sad smile. "Later." He started to walk away.
"I'll text you later." Amu said before he left.
"Okay, later." And he started to walk again. A sad smile was planted on his face. And his vision went blurry. But he held back his tears. But he was just happy that, they were still friends, and they always will be.
You Are, And When I'm Not With You, I Know That It's True, That I'd Rather Be Anywhere But Here Without You
Near some bank that's in downtown, some bad dudes were loading a van with bags of money. They just got done robbing the place, and quietly. All they needed to do was load a few more bags, then get as far away from Tokyo, and they'd be home free.
Their luck change when a chick with pink hair came across them, and when she saw what they were doing, she screamed.
Big mistake.
They looked over to her, and they were furious. The scream attracted attention. People who heard the scream gathered up to see what caused the scream. And everybody that gathered acknowledged what was going on.
The guy that was loading the money was so pissed of, that he got his gun and shot the teenage girl. She collapsed, gripping her wound, and wincing in pain.
A blue hair guy ran to her safety, followed by other people who were willing to risk their lives for her. When the guy with the gun saw the blue hair guy, he shot him too, but he ran out of luck there. He didn't have anymore bullets. And the people who went with the blue hair guy called the cops.
Everybody else that gathered because of the scream started to run and scream themselves. Wich caused a lot of other people to run and scream.
Is This The End Of The Moment Or Just A Beautiful Unfolding
Ikuto was caught up in a crowd. People kept telling him to runaway, but he just ignored, and kept walking. Like he cared if he got shot. So he ignored everybody, but something caught his attention.
"Mommy, why are people running? M-Mommy!" A little kid was holding hands with his terrified mother, and the little boy was struggling to keep up with his mom.
"Because there were some bad people who shot a pink hair girl. So we must go get daddy. Now hurry!" The mom said as she let her son catch up with her. And soon they disappeared into the crowd of running, screaming people.
Ikutos' eyes widened in fury. Pink hair girl caught his attention. And soon afterwards, he started running the opposite way of the crowd.
Of A Love That Will Never Be, For You, And Me?
Same as Ikuto, Amu was caught up in the crowd. She didn't know what to do. She started running away with the rest of the crowd, and the same little boy and mom passed her, and something caught Amus' attention.
"Mommy, will that girl be okay?" The little boy asked worried, with tears in his eyes.
"Yes sweetie, that nice blue hair boy went to go save her, but I think he got shot also, but it's alright! They're getting help right now! Now, hurry again, we must go find daddy." The mom picked her child up, and carried him in her arms. He couldn't keep up. And again, they disappeared into the crowd.
Amu instantly turned worried. 'Blue hair guy? Please tell me it's not..'
She dashed the opposite way. Not knowing where she was heading. She just followed the direction that everybody was avoiding. And as she ran, she started to cry. But she wiped the tears off, and kept running.
At some point, she ended up near an amusement park. The one that she saw earlier when she was with Zuko. The only thing that was inbetween them was a beautiful lake. The lights casted a light show on the lake, and Amu stopped nearby the lake to catch her breath. And then she felt rain drops on her neck. It sent chills down her back.
She looked up at the sky, and the sky released a shit ton of rain. It started to pour, but she didn't care. The only thing that was clouding her mind was the blue hair guy that got shot.
I'd Rather Be Anywhere But Here Without YOU
Ikuto showed up at the crime scene. He stepped up and passed the 'Do Not Cross' yellow tape. Cops told him to go back, and that he couldn't pass. But ignored them.
He brought himself closer to the wounded body. But he felt a big relief when he saw that it wasn't Amu who got shot.
It turns out, it was a girl with black hair, and pink highlights. And a guy that was next to her was a guy who was wearing a fake blue wig.
It was all a misunderstanding.
But that didn't mean he was over it. No. He turned his feet, and took off to the park that Amu and Zuko were at when he was stalking them.
He just needed to make sure Amu was safe.
And as he ran, ran, ran, and ran, until his lungs started to sting. He passed the park, and Amu wasn't there. He decided to go check out a lake that was nearby. He ran on the sidewalk, to avoid cars. The rain was pouring, and he was soking wet.
His steps started to slow down when he saw a familiar pinkette a couple blocks away, trying to catch her breath.
"AMU!" He called out, with tension, and worriedness in his voice. Is that even a word? And sure as hell, she lifted her head. And she was happy, and relieved when she saw Ikuto was fine.
"IKUTO!" She called back. And with that, they started running to eachother. Since Amu was still trying to catch her breath, she ran a bit slow. But Ikuto just bolted full speed.
And less than a couple seconds, he passed the blocks that was keeping him away from Amu. And when she was finally in reach, he threw himself at her. His arms rapidly wrapped around her shoulders. And she wrapped her arms a little bit above his waist.
Her face was buried into his jacket, and she started sobbing, her cries came out muffled.
Ikuto was hugging her so tight, that she was having trouble breathing. He ran his fingers through her hair to comfort her, and he decided to let his tears fall.
Then he released her a little bit, and cupped her cheeks with both his hands. He brought his face closer to his.
Her face was wet, it was hard to tell which drops were her tears, and which were the rain drops. Her face was flushed, and her eyes were sparkling from all the tears. Her eyes were honey glazed again. And the color of her skin came back. She took slow breaths, trying to calm her sobs down.
Ikuto too was crying, but not sobbing. He was just crying tears of happiness. He was really glad that the love of his life wasn't hurt. His skin color came back also.
"I was so worried Amu. I thought you were the one who got shot. I was ready to burst into a massacre." It's amazing how Ikuto can make dreadful things sound so sweet. Amu just smiled.
"I thought you were the one who got hurt. I'm so glad you're okay. Ikuto, i'm so sorry for being prude. I promise i'll never be like that again. I shoulda gave you that kiss. I need to stop being selfish." Her voiced cracked a lot.
"No Amu, it's my fault. I shouldn't have been a jerk and yelled at you like that. I'm sorry.." He started to cry more. "Will you forgive me?" Amu slowly nodded. "Of course.." She said in a high-ish pitched voice because she was ready to sob again.
And again, they embraced eachother. Another tight hug. But Ikuto knew what to do. It was the perfect moment, the perfect time, the perfect place. Again, he released her again. He cupped her cheeks with both his hands, and brought his face closer to hers.
He stared passionately at her. And she was mesmerized by his beautiful sapphire blue eyes. She knew what was coming, and she was ready.
His lips crashed down onto hers. Not a sexy, wet kiss, like he prefers. But more like a sweet, romantic, kiss. And they stood their, kissing for the longest time. Even though Amu was in desperate need of air, she didn't mind continuing the kiss for a longer time.
Their hearts sped up, and butterflies overwhelmed their stomachs. And they both loved the feeling of it. As the kiss continued, she wrapped her arms around his neck. She clinged onto him.
And they didn't pull away for another while.
It was perfect. The amusment park was just radiating beautiful lights. The rain made the lights blur. The lights created the most beautiful light show on the lakes reflection. And the rain made the lake dance. Such a beautiful setting for a first kiss, especially during a rainy night.
Their first kiss, on that one rainy night.
Perfect.
