Chapter 11.

Ikuto

I sat on the bench…just watching everything like I usually did during this time of the year when the weather was good. I watched the loving couples on benches kissing or sharing ice cream cones or cuddling with each other, whispering sweet nothings towards each other. I thought of when I first got Amu back…when we came here to this very park and spent the whole day together. I pressed play on my IPod and watched as a little black cat scurried across my feet as a new song came on in my ears and it made me think of Yoru.

It sent pangs of regret and sadness through my heart when I thought of Yoru. I hadn't spent enough time with him, I had taken his presence for granted and I hadn't even told him how much he meant to me before he just disappeared one day. I looked for him everywhere until one day I saw his little egg shattered in my drawer somewhere in Paris, at the time that I was living there.

That got me thinking about Amu again…she was still much younger then me but every time I saw her…she had no charas. I thought for a moment thinking of every time I had seen her previously and then noticed I was right. She didn't even mention them or even think to look around for them like I still did with Yoru. I still looked over my shoulder every now and then, thinking he'd be there to nag in my ear or say something to lift my sprits up and pull me out of the dark but he wasn't. he never would be again.

She didn't even remember having them though! How was that possible? Did their eggs shatter like Yoru's? Did they go back into their eggs and are somewhere now waiting for her to wake up one of these days form her slumber and remember them? If that were it where are the eggs?

I had so many questions but the only way I knew how to answer them was by talking to her. Telling her the real truth about everything that had happened but I just couldn't. I had already lied to her…and for a good reason at that. I loved Amu and if she was happy with Ren-which I'm sure wasn't the case-then I would let her be but I needed to know. Was she even in love with him like I was with her? Did she have any feelings for me back…at all?

I had to go back. I had to go back to the school…talk to her and make her remember. I had to make her see that I loved her so much my heart hurt every time I see her. I had to get to realize…to remember…

I stood up off the bench I was sitting at and stared around me for a moment, just taking everything in, ready to march myself back down to the school and talk to Amu when…I heard a lovely little voice from behind me.

"Ikuto-san?" I heard a familiar voice. I spun around not only to see…Ayame.
