It don't matter

What my friends think

It don't matter

What they say

They can't take the way

I feel for you away.

No matter what

No matter how

I love you

Forever and always

Believe me when I say

This is real

This is the way I feel

They say they don't like

That I love you

They tell me to stay

Far away, but

I can't do that

Cause

No matter what

No matter how

I love you

Forvever and always

Believe me when I say

This is real

This is the way I feel

We'll show them, that

Our love will prevail

We will not let it fail

We'll be together

Always and forever

Cause

No matter what

No matter how

I love you

Forver and always

Believe me when I say

This is real

This is the way I feel

This love is real

This is the way I feel

The way I feel.

"Very good." "Ha, why exactly do I have to become a singer too?" "So that none of your little friends will ask you why you're working with us, if they become curious." "Ah, so...now what then?" "Well...lets call it a day for now, but write up another new song. For tomorrow." "Whatever." "Oh, and the master wants to..." "Yeah, yeah, but I can't right now, I have something I need to get to." "Such as?" "None of your buisness." "Wrong it..." "Wrong. I was hired to be a personal worker for the master, not for you or this company, so unless you'd like me to tell him that you are making me very upset, you'll let me go." "Ah..." "Do you really want him getting mad at you for that?" "No, go ahead, just be back here right after." "Sure thing. Bye now." Amu hurried out of the building and got into a tinted car, that quickly drove away as soon as she was inside.

"Good afternoon miss, how are you today?" "Tired." "Ha, ha, same here miss. Where to?" "The old music store on the corner." "Ah, yes, I'll have you there in a jiffy." "Thank you. Has there been any news whether the master is supposed to be returning home soon?" "Not as of yet, miss, I'm sorry." "Oh, thats alright, something must be keeping him busy in Paris." "Most likely...ah, here we are miss." Thank you...is..." "Yes, miss, its in that little compartment there." "Thanks, and thank you so much for looking after me while he's away." "Think nothing of it. Have fun." "I always do." Amu got out of the car and walked into a music store.

"Ah, hello there, I havent seen you in quite sometime now." "I know," "Hm? Oh, I see you've taken it up as well have you?" "Yes, theres just something about the sound that it can make that makes me so calm and at ease." "Hm, I know what you mean." "Is it alright if I practice here?" "Yes, theres a little room at the back, you can practice there if you'd like." "Thank you very much." Amu went into the back room and began her practice.

**********************************************************

"Hm...shes good." "Yes, she is." "Well, bless my stars, I have not seen you in ages." "I know." "So, I take it you've been teaching her how to play?" "Yes, I have." "Have you made time to see your own children?" "You know, she asked me the same thing when we were coming here. I told her what I'm going to say now, I do not think I'm ready to return to them just yet." "Oh?" "Or, its not really me, but I don't think they'er ready to have me return yet." "Ah, well, I wouldn't be too sure about that." "Hm...anyway, I'm going to go surprise her...oh!" "Sensei!" "Looks like she knew you were here already." "So it does."

"Sensei, when did you get in? How was your flight?" "Fine, it was all fine, no need to worry...oh, but I see that you have worried..." Amu was pulled into an embrace. "I'm sorry, I didn't know that I would have to stay longer then I said I would." "Its, alright, I'm just glad that you're back." "Hm, shall we go home then?" "Mhm." "See you later Amu, and you as well, sir." "Yeah, you'll probably be seeing alot more of me now." "Thats a good thing." Amu and her sensei were just leaving when his phone went off.

"Hello? Speaking....what, wait I just got back here...you cannot be serious!" Amu sighed, she knew the call was to say that her beloved sensei had to return to Paris, right away. "Look, how about just giving me a week...three days? Ha! Fine! See you when I get in." He hung up his phone and turned to Amu. "Ah, Amu, look I..." "Its alright, you have to get back to Paris to work, right?" "Hm, I do, but I don't want to, lord knows what Easter will have you do, while I'm gone." "Sensei..." The two hugged.

"Argh! I cna't believe that I have to wait until next week till my next class...Huh?" Ikuto had been coming from school, when he'd passed by two people hugging. At first he was just going to walk by, when he heard the man call the woman's name.

"Amu, I don't want to have to leave you alone again so soon." "It alright, I understand." "Hm."

"Amu...what is amu doing here with...no way! That can't be!" Ikuto thought in alarm when he got a good look at the man's face. "Why is he here...and why is he with Amu."

"Sensei, I'll be fine, don't worry...sensei?" "Ha, I'm afraid I'm leaving you with more then one burden to take care of." "Hm?" "I'll be back as soon as I possibly can, Amu. Goodbye till then...good to see you, Ikuto." "Ikuto? What?" Amu's sensei walked away as she turned to see Ikuto right there watching her. "Ah...this is not going to be easy to explain." She started walking towards him, thinking of what she was going to say to him.
