Chapter Five: Stop it, Ikuto!
Unfortunately for Amu, things just got worse. Ikuto showed up every day for the rest of the week. And every time he made an appearance, something got broken. The first time it had been the teapot. The second day it had been a window. The third some of the flowers had gotten crushed. The fourth it was a vase. Every day made Tadase more and more grumpy.
The fifth day, however, was strangely quiet. Ikuto made no appearance all day. Tadase was much happier. Which is why after school he approached Amu. "Would you like to go on a date with me Sunday, Amu-chan?" he asked hesitantly.
Amu blushed and instantly replied, "Yes!"
Ran, Miki, Su, and Dia all giggled where they were floating. "Amu-chan's gone all lovey-dovey!" they taunted.
Amu scowled at them as soon as Tadase had left. The four giggled as she chased them around. She eventually ended up laughing with them. She was excited. She was feeling so good, in fact, that she took the long way through the park.
"Today is a great day~desu!" exclaimed Su. The others agreed.
Amu was about to say something when she heard a familiar violin tune. It's Ikuto, she thought as she raced toward it. She couldn't help the familiar thrill that went through her everytime she heard it. She made it to the pavilion in no time and sure enough, it was Ikuto. I'd know his violin anywhere, she thought. She listened for a moment. It's that song! she thought. She started to sing along. "Ra, ra, ra uta wo utaou kao age kokoro no mama…" Amu trailed off as the violin stopped playing.
"I figured you'd be livid with me," Ikuto stated a smirk playing across his face.
It was then that Amu remembered the past week. "I- I am mad at you! Why did you have to tell everyone that?" she demanded.
"The Kiddy King makes it too easy for me to tease him."
"Can't you guys learn to get along?" she asked.
Ikuto shrugged. "He wants something I won't give up," he explained.
Amu shot him a confused look but he didn't elaborate. He simply put the violin away and came to her side. "So you didn't enjoy that kiss earlier?" he questioned as he got closer until their faces were mere inches apart.
Amu's heart was racing. Her she let her outer character take over, though, as she replied, "N-no! Why would I? It was stolen by a pervert!"
Ikuto smirked. "So the why are you leaning closer?" he teased.
Amu straightened. She hadn't even noticed that she had been leaning closer! "I was not!" she denied, nevertheless.
Ikuto grinned a wide cat-like grin before closing the distance and kissing her for a second time.
Amu had the sense to break away this time, if only to save face. "Ikuto! You pervert!" she cried as she took a swing at him. He caught her hand and chuckled.
"You have to learn how to live for the moment, Amu-chi. You never know what you might miss out on before it is gone."
Amu blushed. Before turning and leaving in an indignant manner. Her charas following behind her calling, "Wait up, Amu-chan!"
Little did Amu know that in a day's time she would find a new meaning to Ikuto's words.
