Katsura: I was putting off this chapter for a while, what with all the lazy bones I have in my body. But I felt guilty and wrote it after reading Yaya-chans 3rd chapter of Ikuto's nine lives :)

Ikuto: You don't have an active bone in your entire skeleten.

Katsura: Watch your mouth or i'll replace you with Nagi, and make this Nagimu, or Amuhiko..or whatever it is.

Ikuto: -zips mouth-

Amu: Katsura does not own Shugo Chara, me or Ikuto in any way shape or form. Now on with the story!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Amu's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's been a month since all the junk with Tadase happened, it's long gone and forgotten.

Tadase apologized a few days after, telling me he didn't know what he was doing or why he did it.

Me being the softie I am, forgave him.

Me and Ikuto's friendship has been growing strong, and it feels like i've known him my whole life!

It's all fun and games with us two. Well, except for those occasional times when he drives me up the wall..


''Ikuto! If your going to have a shower in my house, atleast try to keep the water off the floor!


''Amu! If your going to borrow my jacket, don't get your damn lipgloss all over it!!''


Yeah...we act like an old married couple. Eck..

School starts in 12 minutes, where the frick is Ikuto?

I stand waiting outside for him, tapping my foot and looking in both directions.

''Oh Amuuu!'' A voice whined from behind.

I started walking towards school without him, pretending I never heard him.

''Amuuu! Don't ignore mee!'' He cried like a child, walking behind me and tugging on my skirt.

I slapped his hand off from behind and sped up.

''Amuuuuu!!'' He whimpered, jumping on my back and bringing me to the concrete.

''Ack! Get your ass off me you fat lump!'' I choked, pushing his legs off me and standing up.

''Fat lump? Hmph fine, and I was going to invite you to eat some free ramen after school..'' He coo'ed, acting innocent and walking ahead with his hands behind his back.

''Ramen...hmmmm. Ikutooooo!'' I cried, running up beside him.

~~~~~Amu's Pov at school~~~~

In first lesson, me and Ikuto sat beside eachother exchanging notes and drawing graffiti on the desks.

Yes, Ikuto is in my class because he failed a grade, baka, but it makes lessons fun, so it's not all bad.

A loud clap and cheer was heard from the Saaya clan, something we havn't heard in a while..

''Saaya-sama, welcome back!'' They cheered, clapping their hands together.

In walked a long lost figure, through the wooden doors of the classroom.

''Oohohohoho! I've returned from my 4 week trip from Mexico! Miss me anyone?'' She gleemed.

She sneezed straight after, and wiped her nose with her sleeve.

Suddenly everyone scooted backwards in their seats. Some even tried escaping through the windows.

''Mexico? Poor girl..'' I whispered to Ikuto.

''Poor her? Think about us! We could get infected!'' Ikuto replied.

He jumped out of his seat, grabbed me by my waist and pulled me into a firemans lift.

''All evacuate!'' He shouted.

''Hey! Is that for you to decide?! And put me down!'' I yelped.

Everyone ran screaming out of the room, and Ikuto jumped through the window and onto the football court.

''Baka! What are you thinking?! It's not like she actually HAS swine flu!'' I scream, slapping him upside the head.

He pouts and goes into a corner and starts pushing the dirt into a pile.

''I was just trying to save you..'' He mumbled.

''I know, I know'' I smiled, pulling him up and hugging him.

''Yeey..a hug from Amu.'' He grinned.

All of a sudden, he pinches my ass.

I yelp.

''P-pervert! Don't touch places that are off limits!'' I cry, trying to get out of his vice like grip.

He let go after a while, standing back and grinning at his acomplishment.

''Ikuto do you like your face?'' I question with an angels smile.

''Yeah, I like it alot actually, attracts lots of girls.'' He smirks.

''Well I suggest you keep your hands to yourself, otherwise the only thing that face will attract, will be plastic surgens.'' I growl, glaring a hole through his head.

He laughs nervously and rubs the back of his head.

''Shall we go back now?'' I ask, innocently.

''No way in hell am I going back to Miss Swine flu!'' He laughs.

''Fine, let's just bunk. The roof is free'' I smile, grabbing his arm and sprinting full speed towards the stairs.

~~~~~~~Saaya's POV~~~~~~~

Why did everyone suddenly escape? Is there a fire? Earthquake? Or is it they don't like me..

Nah it's definatly the earthquake.

I shrug it off and make my way to music room 3 for a lesson.

When everyones seated, I take my place on centre stage with the light on me, and a pen in hand.

''Right minna-san, today we will learn about Ikuto's favourite Hobbies'' I shout, writing 'Hobbies' on the board.

''Any awnsers?'' I say, scanning over the small class.

A few hands raise, so I pick one at random.

''Uhm..uuh...Hinamori Amu?'' She stumbles.

Hinamori Amu? That stupid, slutty, good for nothing cool n spicy bitch?

''Sakura-san, how is Hinamori a 'hobby' of Ikuto?'' I ask her.

She looks startled and nervous.

''W-well, it's cause, he's always hanging around with her, you know? So I just thought that..'' She mumbles.

Her? With MY Ikuto? Get real. I'll change that soon enough.

''Lessons over, i've decided, time for some self study. I want you all to keep an eye on those two. Report to me in three days of their activities and conversations. That is all'' I tell them all, excusing them out to break, and for todays spying.

~~~~~~~Amu's POV~~~~~~~

After bunking most of the day, me and Ikuto streached out on the roof, got our stuff and headed for the Ramen shop.

We arrived at a bar looking restaraunt, with stooles and a counter.

We duck under the sheets hanging from the door frame and took our seat.

''Oh boy oh boy oh boy! My first time in a ramen shop. EEEE!!'' I screech, spinning around on the seat.

Ikuto just laughs and waits for the shop owner to come over to take our orders.

A man in his late 40's, wearing an eyepatch and covered in a variety of stains, walked over to our section, looked at us both and smiles a weird smile.

''Ikuto, you finaly got a girlfriend, good on you!'' He grinns.

Ikuto grinns back.

''Ahem, I am NOT his girlfriend, and I doubt that he's never had one. The guy can't stop getting in girls pants.'' I retort, folding my arms.

''This girls a keeper, so strap a leash on her Ikuto boy.'' The man smirks, winking.

Ikuto laughs and nudges me with his elbow.

''I'll take one bowl of Tonkotsu ramen, with green onions and māyu please.'' He tells the man.

My mouth was watering with the smell, and I couldn't decide what to pick.

''Amu..choose today, I don't have all week you know..'' Ikuto whispers, nudging me again in the ribs.

''I'm choosing, i'm choosing!'' I whispered back. ''And stop elbowing me!''

I looked over the menu and found something that looked appetising.

''Ok then, i'll have, a bowl of Miso ramen, with sliced pork, bean sprouts and butter.'' I order.

Is that weird?

''Took you..'' Said Ikuto, looking smug in his seat.

It was my time to elbow him, so I did in his shoulder.

He winced in pain and sat there for 5 minutes fake sobbing.

When our bowls of ramen came, he perked right up, and dug right in.

I stare at him stuffing his face with noodles and topping, til I finaly took the plunge and put a bit of noodles in my mouth.

I chew it for a while, taking in the flavour, and the smell.

Ikuto stops eating and looks at me with curiosity.

My eyes light up like little lightbulbs, and I start going high.

''Yuuuuuum!'' I cheer like a kid in a sweetshop

Ikuto laughs and smiles.

''This is the best thing since slice bread!'' I state, stuffing my own face.

The man over the counter laughs a harty laugh, and walked off to serve some other customer on the other side of the bar.

After my noodles and toppings were gone, I watch Ikuto drink the broth from the bowl, so I copied him.

I raise the white bowl to my mouth, lifted and drunk the broth like there was no tomorrow.

''Aaah, that was gooood'' I sighed happily, spinning around on the seat.

As I spun, I looked out the window and spotted a girl from our school.

It looked like she was staring right at us.

It also looked like she was a Saaya-clan member.

As I spun round a second time, she was gone.

I shrug it off and start a conversation with Ikuto.

I hate silence..

~~~~~~~Saaya's POV, at her mansion~~~~~~~

I look myself up and down in the mirror, and was totally in love.

My reflection looks like a greek goddess in this bra! The goddess of beauty ofcourse.

I think I was almost an A cup. But who knows.

Certainly i'm bigger then everyone else, I see all the envious glares of jealousy from all the other, flat chested girls.

Especially that Hinamori Amu. I bet she doesen't even own a bra.

''Oohohohoho!'' I chant. ''Lets try and see Hinamori win Ikuto over, when she's as flat as a pancake!'' I laugh histericly.

I tighten the curlers in my hair, wrap a dressing gown over my pj's and jump into bed for the night.

''Good night Saaya'' I whisper to myself, lowering the lights as I spoke.

''Achoo!''

~~~~~~~Amu's POV, Same night, at home~~~~~~~

As I change into my nightie, I look down to my chest.

''Wooah! I think i've grown like 3 sizes this year! Stop already, stop!'' I whispered.

I don't want lustful looks from the men for the rest of my school life!

That would be torture, I already have a non-stop horny Ikuto following me around all day.

I switch the lights off, put my ipod headphones in my ears and switch to a relaxing song.

Suteki da ne comes on (DO NOT OWN), and I drift off to sleep while the lyrics dance into my ears and lift me off to dreamland.

My heart, swimming
In the words the wind has borne
A voice, bouncing
On a tomorrow carried by clouds

A heart, trembling
On a mirror where the moon quivers
A star falls, spills
Gentle teardrops

Isn't it wonderful
If we could walk, holding hands
I'd want to go
To your town, your house, into your arms

To your heart
I leave my body
Mixed into the night
I dream

The wind stops; your words
Are a kind illusion
The clouds break apart; tomorrow
Is a distant voice

A heart flowing
In a mirror where the moon has seeped in
A star wavers, spills
Tears you can't hide

(repeat)

That face
Touch it, just so
And dream a dream
That melts in the morning.

I dream that me, and Ikuto, visit the ramen shop again.

We order many bowls of many flavours, with many toppings.

Random I know. Must be my stomach talking.

The shop turns into a block of changing rooms. In the middle stands Saaya.

Her face twists into all sorts of unimaginable hate.

She screams at me and her face turns red.

Her left hand comes up to my face, and she slaps me.

Behind her, I see Ikuto. He seems to be disapointed. Let down.

I begin to cry.

What did I do?

Why did Saaya slap me?

And why, why, did I have this dream?


Katsura: Hehe I just had to have a Ramen shop in this chapter. I had ramen for dinner tonight for the first time ever, so I felt weirdly inspired.

Ikuto: Inspired by food..what a glutten..

Katsura: Ok next chapter, Ikuto is removed and replaced by our great friend, Nagi!

Nagihiko: Hello people!
