Chapter 3: Too close for comfort

Ikuto repeated himself, "Aren't you happy to see me?" This time looking a bit annoyed.

"Um…not really!" I glared at him, biting the inside of my mouth and just waiting to wake up from what seemed like some horrible dream.

"Amu! Amu-Chan! Amu-chan you better come out and see Yaya right now!" Crap… Yaya.

"Who's that?" Ikuto wondered mockingly, beginning to sit up.

"Oh no you don't!" I hissed into his ear. I did the only thing I could think to do, I jabbed his face back down through the mound and covered him as much as possible and I sat… right on him.

"There you are Amu-chan. Yaya was looking all over for you!"

"Sorry Yaya." I mumbled shifting uncomfortably.

"Amu-chan… Yaya is suspicious… what are you doing?"
"Nothing Yaya… I'm just looking for something," I lied trying to give myself time to think of a better excuse. All of a sudden I heard a small purr rising in Ikuto's chest. You're kidding me! I screamed to myself my cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

"Amu, are you hiding a kitty in there? Cuz if you are you need to share with Yaya!" Yaya sprang up onto the pile and started digging her eyes shining. I couldn't let her find Ikuto, but what could I do to stop her? I could see a tiny spec of hair beginning to seep through the sea of bags. Adrenaline was rushing through my body and I reacted, I through myself between Yaya and Ikuto, nothing separated our two bodies except for a single sleeping bag, but I could still hear his hard, fast breath as he trembled under me.

"Amu!" Yaya screeched! "Let Yaya see!"

"No Yaya!" I screamed, head still down in the sleeping bag. "You can't see!"

"Why not? Yaya wants to see!"

"You can't see it… yet!"

"What does Amu-chan mean?" Yaya questioned.

"It's a surprise! You can't see it until we get into our Cabin at the Camp site."

"Oh…" Yaya's eyes were as big as melons as she stared at Amu in awe. "Okay!" Yaya chirped, jumping down from the pile and skipping away.

I breathed out deeply letting my heart begin to slow.

"You're warm Amu." Ikuto whispered. I tried to pull away but Ikuto had his arms held firm to my waist and his head only inches from my own.

"Let go of me!" I ordered harshly.

"But then I'd get cold Amu, and you're so warm." He pulled me in closer to him, squeezing me into his long slender body. "Mmmmmm, that's better." He purred. And with one last yawn he was a sleep, and I was trapped!

Ayumu: You are sooooo perverted!!!

Ikuto: Ehh…

Ayumu: What do you mean by that?

Ikuto: It's who I am. You can love it or hate it… but you know u love it.

Ayumu: Stay away from me!!! *Gets whip*

Ikuto: *Chuckles* I'm not in the mood anyways.

Ayumu: *Shivers* you do know I'm gonna have night mares now… don't you?

Ikuto: Wutever… Read and Reply!!! XD
