Ninjakat: 3!
Amu: yay
Ninjakat: you don't sound that excited…
Amu: WHY WOULD I BE?
Ninjakat: *Sighs* On with the chapter
Recap:
Yoru turned on the lights, "What?" He said, eyebrow raised. "I just said goodnight Yoru, turn off the lights." Yoru went over to me and put his little paw on my forehead, "Are you sure you're okay? Whenever I say goodnight, you never respond, and you definitely don't saw sweet dreams." "Umm…is there something wrong with me saying that for a change?" Yoru shrugged and said, "It's just weird hearing that coming out of your mouth. Amu's softened you way too much." I opened my mouth to speak, but Yoru floated away to turn off the lights.
(Amu's POV)
I woke up once the sun touched my face, but I didn't open my eyes. I sat up, and took three deep breaths, after the third, I slowly opened my eyes.
"NUTS!" I yelled, I was still in Ikuto's room, and in his body. Utau came rushing in, "Ikuto! What happened?" I thought up an excuse, "I um… fell off my bed?" Utau crossed her arms and said, "Ikuto, you're still on your bed." 'Crap!'
I want to tell Utau the truth, I really do! But I can't! "Forget it Utau," I said finally, she shrugged and walked off. "MORNING IKUTO NYA!" Yelled Yoru as he popped out of his egg, 'What would Ikuto do?' "Whatever," I said in a bored voice. Yoru looked at me worriedly, "Are you okay nya?" 'That's not what he does, does he…?' I cleared my throat, "I'm just not feeling that good today," Yoru nodded and said, "What you need is breakfast, let's go nya!" Then Yoru flew out the door.
I got up and followed Yoru downstairs, then I smelt something good in the kitchen. I walked in and saw Utau and Iru having an eating competition. El was hovering behind them, cheering for Utau. On the table was white rice, fish, and miso soup. Once I sat down, Utau got up, "Done already?" I asked, she shrugged and said, "Yeah, and I won." Iru's face got all red, "Hell no! It was a tie!" El flew next to her, "No, Utau won."
Iru and El kept fighting about who won in front of me while I ate, but they stopped and followed Utau out the door. She was wearing a cute white blouse with a black rose on it, a black belted mini skirt and black one inch heels. "Where are you going all fancy like?" I asked with my mouth full of rice, Utau looked at me quizzically and shook her head, "Out?" She said with a blush. I nodded my head, "Ah… Going to see Kukai?" Her blush increased, "H-HOW DID YOU KNOW?" I stopped eating when I realized, Kukai and Utau didn't want Ikuto to know, in fear he might slit Kukai's throat. "Y-you're not mad?" Asked Utau as her charas took a seat on her shoulders, "Ikuto nya! What's all this commotion about?" Asked Yoru as he sat on the table, I raised an eyebrow, "Yoru, where did you go?" Yoru blushed, "Out?"
My head snapped over to Utau as she stomped her heeled foot on the wooden ground, "Did Amu tell you? I bet she did," I shook my head furiously, "N-No! I um… figured it out myself?" Utau scoffed, "Stop lying, Amu told you, and I'll let it go for now since you're not mad. But I'm mad because I had her promise not to tell you or anyone who might tell you, and let Kukai and I tell you ourselves when the time was right." I nodded my head in agreement, she then smiled widely and bolted out the door.
"UTAU AND KUKAI ARE GOING OUT NYA?" Asked Yoru once his brain finally processed what happened, "Ooh yeah," I replied. Yoru helped me wash the dishes, and when I say helped, I mean he sat on his lazy but looking at a picture of Miki. Once I was finally done cleaning up, I took a seat right by him on the couch. "Yoru," I started, "Do you love her?" Yoru blushed, "I-I don't know nya… I can't express my feelings very well, she probably only thinks of me as a friend.." I smirked, because I know something he doesn't.
"Why are you smirking nya?" He asked as he put the picture down on the table, I shook my head softly, "Oh, it's nothing."
There was an awkward silence for a few minutes, then Ikuto's phone rang in my pocket, "Moshi moshi?" I said when I answered, "Hey Amu," Came Ikuto, "I just realized something." Yoru tried to come closer so he could hear our conversation but I stood up and walked away, "Okay…what is it?" "I'm supposed to be having a violin concert in a few weeks, so just in case we don't get back into our bodies anytime soon, I'm going to have to teach you. Oh shit, I just remembered you're going to go to my high school tomorrow, I'm going to have to tutor you. Man, why can't you just be as perfect as me Amu?" I scoffed at the last part.
"Alright, but we're going to have to do all that somewhere private or else people will suspect us,"
"Duh, I know that, we can do that at my friend's house. Him and his family are gone for a couple months and he left his bedroom window open."
"Why would he do that? And how do you know?"
I heard him sigh, "He said I could go there anytime I need time to myself, anyways, I need help with your charas. They're on to me, how's Yoru?"
I looked at Yoru who was still sitting on the couch looking at me, "Yoru is doing fine, is anyone home?"
"No, you should get my ass over here now." Then he hung up, I looked at Yoru and said, "Want to go visit Iku-Amu?" Yoru's eyes lit up and he nodded his head, then I headed for the door with him following me.
(Ikuto's POV)
Once I hung up the phone, Ran, Miki, and Su came in with angry faces on. It was really starting to creep me out. "Amu-chan!" Yelled Ran, "What happened to you? Your attitude is different, you eat different, you talk to us different. Hell, you SLEEP different!" A small bead of sweat rolled down my forehead as Su flew up to me, brought a thermometer out of nowhere, and stuck in my mouth. Not long after, she took it out and examined it, "Hmmm… You're fine desu… " Ran and Miki came over to look at the thermometer, "Hmmm…" They both said.
Miki looked at Dia's egg that was sitting in the basket, "Let's try asking Dia," 'Oh no! What if Dia tells them? They will tear me to shreads! If not, they might go back into their eggs too!' More sweat started coming down my forehead.
Miki knocked on Dia's egg three times, the egg moved as it spoke, "Sorry Miki, I can't tell you." Miki's eyebrows furrowed and she crossed her arms, "Why not?"
"Because, it's not me you should hear it from, but Amu is not going to announce it anytime soon. Patience Miki." Miki sighed and flew back to Ran and Su. Just then, the doorbell rang, "I'll get it!" I said, trying my best to act like Amu. I skipped down the stairs and towards the door, and felt an uncomfortable glance coming from the charas. "I knew it, she's lost it," I heard Miki say.
I opened the door and there stood Amu and Yoru, "Wassup nya?" Asked Yoru, trying to sound like a gangster, I shook my head in disapproval, "No Yoru…just-no" "May we come in?" Asked Amu, trying to sound like me, they came inside when I stepped to the side to make room for them to pass. I notice Yoru blushing, and looking at Miki, and she too, was blushing. I smirked and closed the door.
We all took a seat on the couch and I sat by Amu, everything was silent. Man, I wanted to do something perverted that Amu would hate (But I enjoy) but I was in Amu's body! 'But maybe I could- No! The charas are here!' I noticed all the charas looking at Amu, as if they were waiting for her to do something perverted to me!. 'Man, I would LOVE to see her do that! But that would be like… flirting with yourself...?'
Yoru flew up to Amu and whispered something in her ear, then she blushed and Yoru looked at her worriedly. 'Screw this,' "Ikuto?" I said in the most girly way I could manage, "I'm cold, do you mind hugging me?" They all looked at me with their eyes wide and mouths open, then I started fake shivering.
"Go get a blanket or something!" Protested Amu, I smirked for a second and said, "Only if you would get in it with me."
"Oh my!" Cried Su, she rushed over and stuck the thermometer in me again. I spat it out and yelled, "Will you stop that!"
Su looked like she was about to cry, I glanced at Amu and she had, "I will kill you," written all over her face. "Su, he... I mean she didn't mean it," Said Amu. I sighed and said, "Su, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it, I didn't wake up right this morning," 'That's partly the truth...' Su nodded and said, "It's okay desu, I forgive you." I smiled widely. "Alright, so what now Amu-chan?" Asked Ran, I looked up at the ceiling, "Want to go to the park?" I asked, all charas, even Amu, stood up and cheered, "YAY!"
I sent Amu a death glare, and all charas stopped cheering to raise an eyebrow at her, she cleared her throat and said, "I mean uh… whatever?" I sighed, took her arm, and dragged her out of there with the charas following us.
We arrived at the park and Su and Ran left for the playground, Amu and I both looked at the two charas left who were looking at the ground and blushing. "You kids go have fun," Said Amu, then she winked at Yoru (Miki didn't see). Yoru breathed in deep and said, "Miki! Want to…um…I don't know, what do you want t-to do?" I mentally slapped him when he stuttered. Miki looked up, smiled and said, "Come with me so I can draw people?" Yoru nodded his head and the two took off.
"They would make such an adorable couple…" Whispered Amu, I shook my head, "Amu, we need to learn how to act like each other," We stopped in front of the water fountain, and there was no one else around. I crossed his arms and said, "Start teaching."
My first lesson was how to do her expressions, and how to do 'cool and spicy' mode. Apparently, I got a B in expressions and an F minus in cool and spicy. She told me that I got most of the common expressions down, and that my cool and spicy imitation is just plain sad. Now it was my turn to teach her something, she already knows that most of my expressions are blank, so I taught her how to walk and talk like me. She got a D in walking, and a B on talking. The reason why she got a D in walking was because she kept swinging her hips too much, and it makes me look gay.
"Alright, I guess that's it for today, and tomorrow after school," I said while handing her a piece of paper with an address written on it, "We will go to my friend's house and I will tutor you." Amu nodded her head and said, "Whatever," I smirked and said while using a really girly voice while swinging my hips around, "Oh Ikuto! You are sooo sexy!" While I said that, an old lady was walking past us, she stopped and said, "He's a keeper!" Then walked off.
Amu and I watched her retreating figure with a brow raised. A moment later, I turned around and saw Amu shooting a death glare at me, I smiled and said, "I just couldn't help it!" Then we heard the charas calling our names, we answered back and they came over, "What time is it desu?" Asked Su, I pulled out Amu's phone and said, "Two in the afternoon."
I looked at Yoru who was looking at Miki who was looking at Amu who was looking back at Miki. "So," I said, breaking the silence, "What did you guys do?"
Su spoke up,"Ran and I had a tea party with a little girl desu! But Ran didn't seem to enjoy it very much…"
"You're damn right I didn't! That tea was nasty!"
"But you liked the cookies desu,"
"Yes, yes I did like the cookies."
We all turned to face Yoru and Miki who were blushing, "Well?" Asked Ran, "I-I drew people…" Said Miki, "Let's see it desu!" Cried Su, Miki's eyes widened and she said, "No, it's private…" "But I bet Yoru got to see it!" Whined Ran, Miki blushed and said while handing Ran her sketch pad, "Here!"
We all circled around Ran because we wanted to see what Miki drew that made her so embarrassed. Ran flipped the first page and it was a picture of a man jogging, then a woman jogging, then a kid eating ice cream, then-
I saw a huge smile form on Amu's lips, "AAWWW!" They all said (Not me, Yoru, and Miki) The two love birds blushed, it was a picture of them kissing, so was the next one, and the next after that. Miki shut the pad closed and snatched it back, "You've seen enough," She said before she flew back over to Yoru, We decided to drop it for now and torture them some other day.
Amu's phone started going off in my pocket, I grabbed it out and it said, '1 new picture message' And the sender was Utau, "Hmmm," I said. Then everyone started gathering around me to see what it was.
I opened the message that said,
Here is the picture you wanted of me and my baby ;)
I raised an eyebrow, 'Baby? Oh fuck… BABY? WHO THE FUCK IS THE FATHER?' I didn't notice how red my face was from anger, "I think there's more desu!" Said Su, then all of a sudden Amu lunged for the phone, but I moved. "NO IKUT-AMU! Give me the phone. Now." I looked at her in shock, her eyes were wide, 'What is she hiding…' I turned around and quickly scrolled the text down to reveal the picture.
I looked at the picture for about ten seconds, and in that ten seconds, my brain was processing the picture. When it finally did, my jaw dropped down. It was a picture of my dear sister, being kissed by Kukai, on the grass.
I put the phone back in my pocket and said, "That bitch is going to get it!"
Ninjakat: Hahaha! Poor, poor Kukai :P
Ikuto: Where is he hiding...
Ninjakat: Did you check up your ass?
Ikuto: What?
Ninjakat: *Shakes head* Nevermind, anyways, that part where that old lady came up and said, "He's a keeper!" I got that from my science teacher. He proposed not so long ago and that old lady showed up and ruined the moment XD Congrats Mr. Hawkly! :D (I should totally dress up as a dinosaur and crash his wedding, even though he might hate me forever, it's funny if you think about it.)
R&R if you care!
