ChapterTwo: I admit it.

I blushed crimson red. "W-well. I'm Hinamori-"

"I don't want to know your last name," Ikuto said, irritated. "Now. Who are you, Hinamroi?"

I gulped. No way was I going to get out now. All I could do was try, and hold the fear out of my eyes. "I told you this before. I'm here, to make sure you're going to 'enjoy' your moments of 'life' before you regret everything, hoping you could re-do it."

Ikuto rolled his eyes. "Okay, so now answer my other question: What are you doing here?"

I stiffened. "Can we please just eat the pancakes? They're getting cold."

"I don't care about the fucking pancakes!" Ikuto shrieked.

I shook. This was the first time a human shouted at me, being pissed.

Ikuto widened his eyes, seeing how frail, and scared I was looking. "I-I'm sorry. I just wanted to know, why are you here…"

I turned away from him, so he wouldn't see that tears were already starting to form. "I have no other place to stay…"

This cracked him up, and lightened the mood. "S-so you're saying, that you're staying here because… you have no other place to be?"

"S-SHUT UP!"

"O-okay. Now that this is settled, let's eat pancakes! Ikuto cheered.

I looked at Ikuto, giving him the 'you're a freak' look. "Okay… Well. Yeah. Let's eat pancakes…"

After they finished eating…

"Ahh… The food was so good," Ikuto groaned.

"I know right…"

He turned to face me. "Cocky much?" He said, with a grin starting to form.

I smirked. "Yeah, now, Let's go to the Arcade!" I shouted, pumping my fist into the air.

"B-but the arcade is at the Mall…"

Amu rolled her eyes. "We can also shop for clothes."

Ikuto gave Hinamori a hard glare. "That doesn't help."

"Whatever, just could we pleeease go? I want to see how badly I can pwn (Pwn-. POE-N) your ass."

"Oh, it is on Pinkette."

"Try me," Hinamori challenged.

At the arcade…

"And team Hinamori wins again!"

Ikuto glowered. "You. Cheated."

"No I didn't," Amu said, with pure innocence.

"Dude!" A brunette walked up to Ikuto. "You just got beaten by a girl!"

Amu narrowed her eyes. "Just because I'm a girl, doesn't mean we have to suck."

The brunette, held up his hands, as a sign of surrender. "Whoa there. Feisty. I like it."

Behind Hinamori, was Ikuto, scared that the brunette, Souma Kukai- would remember him from school. His outside life was unknown, from people like Souma.

"Whoa is the dude, behind you, Pinky, the famous Tsukiyomi Ikuto?" Souma teased.

Ikuto shrunk, trying to blend in with the shadows.

"We can see you," Souma said, amusement in his voice.

"Yeah." Said Amu.

Souma Kukai raised an eyebrow. "Having fun over there?"

I squirmed. "Yes."

Souma laughed. "Being pwned by a girl, has got, to make it seem bad."

I looked at him. "Oh, so you want me to beat you, the way she beated me at the game?" I questioned, the atmosphere became challenging.

"You are so on, Tsukiyomi!" Oh, and call me Kukai." Kukai gave a wink. "I hate, having to be all formal. It sucks."

I rolled my eyes. "Tell me about it."

Ikuto looked shocked. Usually, he wouldn't let this side of him be shown, especially by someone like… Him. So did Kukai. "Whoa man. You have got to be this cool at school. Everyone is going to freak."

Ikuto looked over his shoulder, to see Amu smiling at him. I guess it can't be too bad to play one round… Ikuto thought.

Okay, so a 'round' turned into three, than 10, and then, they got hungry, so the three went to get food. (Remember? Ikuto, Amu, and Kukai?) Now, Ikuto's 'other' side went out. But he was still nice. Not yet all wild.

"Oh crap," Kukai said to Amu and Ikuto. "I have no more money, because we spent it all at the arcade."

Ikuto and Amu raised an eyebrow. "We?"

Amu laughed, "Wasn't it you (Kukai) who spent it all, saying 'If you win this round, I'll pay for the Game Tokens, until I finally beat you.'

"Aw yeah Hinamori, up top," Ikuto said, asking if she was going to high five him.

Kukai looked mildly embarrassed. "I-it wasn't my fault exactly!" Right then, his tummy growled.

Ikuto laughed, and Amu rolled her eyes. "Nerds." Amu said, breezily walking past the 'boys.'

"Hey! We can hear you!" Ikuto and Kukai shouted, their fists pointed towards the air.

"I'm buying!" Amu shouted back.

Ikuto looked at Kukai- Kukai looked at Ikuto. "FREE FOOD!" They shouted, running towards Amu.

While eating in the Food Court… (This is what it's called at my mall…)
While Kukai was stuffing food into his mouth like there was no tomorrow, Amu and Ikuto actually cared if someone saw them eating like a barbarian.

"So…" Kukai said between mouthfuls. "What'cha guys doing tuh-geth-err (I made it with the pronounce, because when your mouth is stuffed, the words sound different, and I wanted you guys to know how it sounded…) at 'he mall? ('he= the Don't worry. If you say it, it makes it easier to understand what the word is)

"I just wanted to pwn Ikuto's ass at the Arcade," Amu casually said.

Ikuto rolled his eyes. "We were. Turns out, Amu cheated, so she won."

Kukai laughed, spitting chunks of meat flying from his mouth. "Oops! Well, I was just hanging with my buddies, when I saw a Pinkette, who was enjoying herself, and then I saw you, Tsukiyomi." (He swallowed down his food, so you can understand what he's saying :P)

"Yeah. But why aren't you hanging out with your 'buddies' and hanging around us?" Ikuto questioned.

While Amu was eating her Chinese food, Kukai laughed. "Look. I never knew you had a girlfriend-"

"SHE'S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND!" Ikuto shouted.

"HE'S NOT MY BOYFRIEND!" Amu shouted.

(Both of them were shouting it together, but I can't clash it like that now, can I?)

Kukai chuckled. "Well, it seems as though I'm stuck with some very stubborn people. By the way, Pinkette (Sorry, I didn't let him know her name yet) I've never seen you 'round here before. Did you move here or 'somethin? "

Amu shook her head. "Yeah… I was hanging out in my old town, when BAM! My parents and sis-"

Ikuto and Kukai slammed their hands onto the table, while leaning towards Amu. "YOU HAVE A SISTER?"

Amu rolled her eyes. "Can I at least get to finish my sentence, before you get all excited? And yes; I have a sister." Amu then suspiciously looked at Ikuto and Kukai. "Why would you guys care?"

Ikuto tried to make his voice calm. "Duh, because we can all play Math Counts! Together."

Kukai scoffed."Dude!"

Ikuto looked confused. "I have the first edition and everything. Wouldn't it be fun to calculate, do algebra, and everything else?"

(Lol, I told you, he was a nerd…)

"Whatever. I'm going to throw away my food." Amu said, walking past Ikuto and Kukai.

At the Tsukiyomi house…

"Okay!" Amu cheerfully said.

Ikuto rolled his eyes. "That's exactly what a cheerleader would say. Okay!" He mimicked, making his voice high like a girls. "Now, we need to make the formation girls! Now, one, two three, Yeah!" He crazily waved his arms back and forth.

Amu raised an eyebrow. "And how would you-a guy, know?"

"W-well…" Ikuto stuttered, showing discomfort. He bowed his head. "I went to a Girls Cheerleading after school, because I wanted to test the Circumference of something. Girls Cheerleading was the only thing they had that day."

Amu burst the laughter that she was holding all the way out. "S-so you're t-telling m-me, that you went to a Girls Cheerleading to just calculate the circumference of something?"

Ikuto kept his head low. "Yes…"

Amu rolled around, laughing until tears formed at the edge of her eyes. "Okay, now what was I going to say…?"

(Remember? When Amu was saying 'Okay!' at the beginning?)

Ikuto shrugged, still embarrassed. "How would I know… I'm not you."

"Whatever. I'm going to take a shower." Amu said.

Ikuto shrugged. "I don't care."

Amu halted. "You sound emo now. 'I don't care." Amu mimicked.

Ikuto rolled his eyes. "Do you want me to sound happy?"

Amu smiled, showing a thumbs up. "Yeah!"

Ikuto looked weirdly at Amu. "Okay, now you sound a lot, like Kukai, and weren't you going to take a shower, wannabe kid?"

Amu shouted in fits of frustration. "I'M NOT A WANNA BE KID!"

"Whatever," He smirked. "Wanna be kid."

(Lol, the 'Ikuto' from Shugo Chara is here! I especially made sure that when he said it, his character from Shugo Chara was seen! Remember? 'Wannabe kid.')

After Amu took a shower…

"Ahhh…" She stretched. "Nothing feels better than taking a warm bath, than changing into such snugly pj's."

Ikuto smirked. "So you're saying that if you take a warm bath, than changing into pj's makes you feel good?"

Amu rolled her eyes. "Whatever. Let's just go to bed."

Ikuto raised an eyebrow. "So you're saying you want to sleep on my bed with me? Because you did say 'bed' not 'beds' Hinamori," Ikuto looked smug.

Amu blushed. "NOT LIKE THAT PERVERT!"

"Oh, so what were you trying to say then Hinamori?"

"I just want to go to sleep on a bed by myself."

"You could've said that, Wanna be kid," Ikuto smirked.

"Whatever…" Amu tiredly said.

While walking up the steps, Amu was walking like a drunken person. Tilting side- to- side, Amu looked as if she was going to faint. "Hinamori?" Ikuto worriedly says. "You okay?"

I (Amu) had a hidden smirk, and since he could only see my back, he didn't notice anything. "Oh…" I moaned. "I feel… So sleepy. I think… I'm going to faint…" I suddenly stopped, and shifted my body weight so that I could look as though I was going to faint. This angel wasn't helping people and not learn anything else while doing so. I thought to myself.

Before my face could hit the stairs, I felt two pairs of arms go around my waist, stopping me from falling.

Okay, I admit it; I'm no superman. I barely held Amu up from fainting. With everything that happened, the least expected thing I thought Amu was going to do was faint. Of course, before her face could hit the blow of the wooden stair case, I wrapped my arms around her petite waist, and tugged her back upwards. Naturally, for someone like me, it was difficult to pull her up.

It wasn't that Amu was heavy, it was more likely that I had no arm though I got straight A+'s in everything, I only got a C- in P.E. (physical education)

When I was younger, I was like any normal kid. I was happy, bubbly, and hyper. Not to mention quiet.

This reminded me exactly when I was-

There was a throbbing in my head. I carefully put Amu down, and gasped.
