Strawberry: OMG! I'm so sorry for the long hiatus! I came back! I'm so surprised that you guys * well some of you anyways * were patient… I'm so sorry, so I came back with that update I promised you all.

You can all blame Strawberry for taking a long hiatus. (Had exams, tests and study meetings… STUDY OVERLOAD AND WORK. /shot)

Here's the bonus chapter I promised that will be done on Friday. * looks at calendar * Today is Friday… Well. OK.

I don't owe Shugo Chara.

Yes, I didn't use Seven Days plot or omake for this bonus chapter, because I intend to do a one shot (well it failed of course) I did a few weeks ago while I was thinking of the bonus chapter. Hope you guys enjoy it.


Bonus Chapter - Something special for your love.

It was winter.

The snow was coming down slowly and gently as it covers the long road that leads towards the school. Today wasn't a school day. It was Sunday. Tadase and Ikuto made a date for this special day.

It was Ikuto's birthday today. But something wasn't going the way it was for Tadase.

Because Tadase only had a few minutes left to go see Ikuto at the park where Ikuto told him to meet up, Tadase was panicking trying to look for a suitable cake in a cake shop he found just a moment ago.

'Oh no! What am I going to do? If I take too long, I might make Ikuto wait! But if I don't get him a cake, then that'd be stupid of me! I didn't brought him a present because I was busy and in a rush because of exams! Ugh! Which one?'

Tadase was looking at the cake displays and searched for the perfect cake for Ikuto. There were so many variations to choose from. Tadase was worried to which one to choose.

Then suddenly, a face appeared behind the counter. He had black, dead straight hair that reached down his neck and his hazel eyes were gleaming. He was staring at Tadase for quite a long time. "Do you need some help?" He asked politely.

Tadase jolted, and seem surprised to find that someone had been watching him all this time. Tadase blushed. "I'm so sorry! I… I don't really know which cake to get for my boy- I mean friend!"

"…. Boy-friend?"

"NO! JUST friend!"

The boy smiled and could see it in Tadase's face. "I see. A cake for your boyfriend." He could tell just by seeing Tadase's flustered face. Tadase had no other things to say. He groaned in defeat. "… Yes… Boyfriend…" He mumbled under his breath.

The boy chuckled. "Well… What happened? What's so special about today? I could help you."

Tadase didn't wanted to accept the boy's offer, but he had to agree, Tadase did not know what to choose for Ikuto's birthday cake. "… Umm… It's his birthday. So I was hoping if you would be able to pick up a cake that's suitable for him?" Tadase asked quietly.

The boy with the hazel eyes smiled.

"Well… Stay here. I need to go to the back and get it out from the fridge." The boy turned around and head back at the staff room.

Tadase stood still and looked outside. Snow was still gently falling down.

'I hope I still have time.'

Ikuto though, was already at the park. Hands in his pocket and waiting for Tadase near a children's playground. Ikuto sighed and looked at his phone checking the time.

"It's 3:00pm already… Tadase… Where are you…?"

Tadase was getting more worried. He wanted to go out, but because he didn't want to leave without a reason, he stayed. He forced his body to stay.

'Oh please be quick! What time is it now?'

Tadase took his phone out and check his time. He blank out for a second. Is it true that he saw the phone screen saying that the time was exactly 3:00pm?

Why yes. It was exactly 3:00pm.

"AAHHHH! I'M GOING TO BE LATE!" He shouted. He couldn't help himself. He headed towards the door. 'I'm so sorry. But I have to-' Interrupted by a voice, Tadase turned behind.

The boy with hazel eyes came back. He looked like he was in a rush as well. "I'm sorry if I took my time! Here!" He said. He took out a box wrapped in a pink bow. Tadase blushed. He came towards the counter and took it. The boy smiled. "Now go!"

Tadase looked surprised. "But I haven't paid you yet!" The boy shook his head. "Ahaha! No problem! Just go!" He said. Tadase looked surprised.

"But!"

"Just go! You don't want to keep him waiting right?" Tadase and him made eye contact.

Tadase didn't know what to do. "I'm sorry." He bowed. Tadase turned to the door. He pulled the handle and turned to the boy one last time before he left. He gave the boy a smile. "Thank you so much!"

He then left and the boy behind the counter just smiled.

"Good luck!" He said.

Tadase ran to the park to find Ikuto. Hopefully Ikuto hasn't left already. But Tadase wasn't sure where he would be by now.

Tadase was confused. He held the bow closely to him. 'Where… Where is Ikuto?' He thought, as he was taking breathes. He turned to look for him. Anywhere…

Finally, Tadase saw Ikuto walking down a pathway alone. He couldn't tell if he was upset. But he's heading home!

Tadase urged himself to run to him, and he did. He ran as fast as he could. "IKUTO!" He shouted his lover's name, hoping he could hear him. Ikuto did. He turned his head and saw his younger lover running towards him.

Tadase looked happy, but then, he tripped.

"UWAAHHHH!"

"Are you OK?" Tadase felt as if something is holding on to him. He opened his eyes slowly to find Ikuto's arms around him. Protecting his small fragile body. Tadase blushed. "Iku-…"

"Are you OK? Are you hurt? What took you so long?" Ikuto asked so suddenly. Tadase looked up to see his face. Then, the both of them made eye contact. Tadase was staring at Ikuto's eyes, as if he was drowned at how beautiful they were.

It was gleaming back at him with shimmering dark blue eyes.

Tadase was flustered at how long he was staring at them for. "Ah! I'm so sorry if I took so long! I…" He looked at the box he was holding. "I… I got you a cake…" Ikuto blushed.

"You… You didn't had to buy or get me anything… Because I have everything I needed."

Tadase looked at him. "Everything?"

Ikuto smiled at how dense he was but also, was because the person he loved was in his arms. "You. Tadase Hotori… You are my everything… So no presents would replace you… No person would as well…"

Tadase was going beet red to hear what his lover had said. In such a poetic way as well. "But… Still…" Tadase looked at the box.

Tadase faced Ikuto again. "Please just accept this. I know you'll like it."

Ikuto looked at the innocent face and smiled. "I guess I have no choice." They both sat down on a bench and Ikuto opened the box to find, and reveled a beautiful star cake covered by white whipped cream topped of chocolate and strawberry sided with cut shaped love chocolates.

Tadase was surprised at how beautiful this cake was made. Ikuto looked surprised as well. "This is nice. I like your style of cakes Tadase." Ikuto said, smiling at his lover.

Tadase shook his head. "No! Someone gave that to me!"

Ikuto looked at him. "Oh I see… Well… Can I come over your house and we'll eat it together?"

Tadase was going bright red.

He remembered what happened last time at his house. They… kissed…

"Ah-" But Tadase didn't want to go to Ikuto's house because of Hotori… 'Hotori'. A strange aura crept upon him. Ikuto could see it. Tadase nodded. "YES! LET'S GO TO MY HOUSE!" He cried.

At Tadase's house.

Ikuto was invited in Tadase's room once again. Both of them took their coats away and Tadase was wearing his white T-shirt while Ikuto was wearing a long sleeve shirt. Tadase sat down the floor and so did Ikuto. They brought in their plates with a slice from the cake on it. Tadase going bright red.

Ikuto didn't seem t realize. "Itadakimasu—" Ikuto said as he held his fork and stick it in the cake. Tadase turned and Ikuto was eating it already. "Is it good?" Ikuto turned to Tadase.

"Want some?"

"Huh?"

Ikuto came close and kissed him. Dipping his mouth deeply into his lover's small mouth. Tadase was going right red. He could feel something in his mouth. It was sweet.

He pulled away from Ikuto and swallowed it.

Ikuto smiled. "Sorry. I couldn't help it." Tadase was blushing brightly. Ikuto went back eating the cake. But somehow… Tadase was expecting more. He wanted to kiss Ikuto again.

He was hiding his face. "I-Ikuto…" Ikuto turned. "Hm?" He had the fork in his mouth.

"I… Do you want another gift from me…?" He asked quietly.

Ikuto just stared at him. "A gift?"

Tadase came close to Ikuto and gave him a small kiss. Then Tadase quickly moved away and was going red. Ikuto blushed. Then he grinned. He pulled Tadase close to him and Tadase was going bright red.

Ikuto licked gently on Tadase's ear. Tadase could feel his warmth breathe. "Un! I-Ikuto!" Ikuto slowly moved down to his neck making Tadase shiver more. "Are you my gift Tadase?" He asked slyly.

Tadase blushed. "Ah!" Ikuto dipped his mouth into Tadase's neck. "Ahhnnn~" Tadase didn't want him to stop. He wanted more.

"If you are… Then I'll just have to 'unwrapped' you." Ikuto said as he slowly moved his hands under Tadase's T-shirt. Tadase moaned. Ikuto couldn't resist but to hear more. He then had his other hand slipping into Tadase's pants.

"Ikuto!" Tadase cried. Ikuto couldn't help it. "Tadase…"

When they made contact, they kissed each other and fell on the bed. Ikuto was on top of the young boy. Tadase was bright red and making loud breathing while Ikuto just took breaths. Tadase smiled at the man he was embracing his love him.

"Ikuto… I love you…"

"Tadase. I love you too."

~~ Later ~~

Tadase woke up the next day to see Ikuto beside him on bed. Tadase blushed. He then wanted to got up. "I shouldn't wake- AH!" He was suddenly pulled down and two warm arms held him. Tadase looked to see if Ikuto has woken up.

"Stay a little longer." Ikuto whispered softly, his eyes glittering at Tadase. Tadase blushed.

He couldn't help it but he did stayed there beside his lover. Ikuto fell asleep later and Tadase just stared at his window. Ikuto's warm body was against his small fragile body. He felt safe and protected. As he close his eyes he smiled sweetly.

Tadase's mother outside his room was trembling. "Did Ikuto went home last night or did he spend a night in Tadase's room? I could see his shoes in front of the house…" His mother kept saying.

Hisa just stared at her mother. "Kaa-san… You're trembling…"

Today our love will continue…

Forever and always...
