End of Recap
~Ikuto's POV~
The next day at school, the principal called for an assembly.
All the students, including Amu, Utau, Kukai, and I, saw the big fat bulletin outside the office. So, with many confused people, we filed through the crowded hallways into the auditorium.
"I wonder what this is all about…" Utau muttered as we sat down on some remaining seats along the back row. Yep, she was talking to me again because I told her I apologized and confirmed with Amu.
Nikaidou, he clumsy idiot teacher, tapped the microphone a few times to try to get our attention. I just leaned back on my chair and Kukai and I rolled our eyes at each other.
When he finally got most of our attention, he handed the microphone over to our principal, Tsukasa.
"You're all probably wondering why you're here" he said in that cheery attitude he always seems to have.
"No duh…" I muttered and Kukai snickered, getting a look of disapproval from Nikaidou and questioning stares from nearby students.
"Us teachers have decided to partner you guys up as "study buddies" so you can help each other study or do homework when you're not in school. Also, you have to meet up at least twice a week." Tsukasa continued.
"What the hell?!" I suddenly said, standing up. Heads swerved around to the back of the auditorium where I was. "Why exactly do we need "study buddies" and what kind of name is that?" I made quotations in the air and mimicked Tsukasa in a baby voice when I said "study buddies".
The whole auditorium erupted with laughter and I could even see come of the teachers trying to hold their laughter in. Tsukasa shot me a look before speaking.
"Ikuto, you just earned yourself a detention today after school. And mister, you aren't doing so well yourself, either, so I suggest you benefit yourself in this in any way possible" he smiled. At this, the students laughed even harder and I sat down heavily, glaring at them.
I glanced sideways and now that Kukai, Utau, and Amu were laughing the hardest of all. They were practically rolling on the floor, laughing. I sat there with an annoyed look on my face, the laughter almost deafening me.
Finally, Tsukasa's eyes swept through the auditorium with a smile that could scare you half to death, daring the students to continue laughing and will experience hell later on. The laughter slowly died down as Tsukasa regained their attention.
"Your teachers will assign your partners in class. You can't change partners complain about it or else you can join Ikuto in detention. So don't your teachers a hard time," he continued. A few students started to snicker, but quickly shut up.
"Okay, that concludes this assembly. You may now return to your classes," Tsukasa finished. Slowly, the auditorium emptied out and filled their classrooms.
Nikaidou entered our homeroom, clumsily dropping papers everywhere. "Where's the assigned sheet…" he mumbled to himself, "Oh, here it is!"
"I'm going to assign you your partners now" he said, taking a seat at his desk. "First off. Rima and Nagihiko, Yaya and Tadase…" he paused, squinting at the paper.
I glanced over at Amu since it was so obvious she had a crush on Tadase and of course would want to be paired up with him. She had a look of disappointment on her face and something started to bubble up inside me.
Was it jealously? But why the hell would I be jealous of Tadase, the kiddy king? Why am I jealous of Amu being disappointed that she wasn't paired with him? No, it's not jealously. It can't be. I have no absolute reason to be jealous at all.
Forcing the strange feeling out of me, I focused on Nikaidou announcing who I was gonna be paired up with.
"…Kukai and Utau, and lastly, Amu and Ikuto" Pleased with my results, I smirked and thought deviously, Hmm…guess I'll have some fun with my Amu…
Amu, on the other hand wasn't happy at all. Ignoring what Tsukasa said earlier about complaining about your partners, she stood up and screeched, "WHAT?!"
All heads turned to look at her and her cheeks flushed with all the attention. Still, she didn't sit back down and continued onward. "I-I mean, of all the people here why must be partners with him?!" she exclaimed, pointing at me. I flinched. All the girls who obviously wanted to be paired up with me nodded their heads vigorously in agreement.
"Sheesh…what's the big deal about it anyways? "I asked Amu. "Besides, you and I will have lots of fun studying," I smirked. The guys started whistling and Amu literally plunged at me, threatening to rip my throat out. Utau and Kukai had to hold her back. I just sat there smirking and sticking my tongue out at her, as the whole class snickered.
"Alright, calm down! "Nikaidou hollered over the huge commotion. "That will be detention after school for you too, Miss Hinamori."
"But-" She started to protest.
"Another word and detention for the both of you tomorrow, too" he warned.
Amu sighed in frustration and plopped back down on her seat. "Thanks a lot…." she muttered to me.
"What? It's not like it was my fault you got paired up with me" I smiled innocently. Amu groaned and put her head down on her desk.
Nikaidou shot a warning glare in out direction and we immediately shut up. I shot one last smirk at Amu, who still had her head down.
Looks like I'm gonna have some fun with my strawberry…
Natsumi: DERE. Was this chapter short? Cuz usually I plan out my writing in my notebook before I type it up and post it on FF and compared to the other chapters, this only took up …like, only nine pages, well, hope you guys liked it. ;D
Ikuto: It was-
Natsumi: So anyways! On to important decision making announcement! I'm gonna start writing a new fan-fic and I don't know if I should do a SasuSaku one or an Amuto one. So I was like "Oh! Maybe I should let you guys choose…" And now you guys get the honors of doing so! For the Amu to fan-fic, I already started like, half of chapter one with Naomi back then and nothing for SasuSaku…but the ideas are already laid out and stuff. Let me know which one you want in the reviews and the one that is the most preferred is the next fan-fic, I will start writing. And I'll announce the winner in Chapter 11 and give you guys the preview. ;)
Amu: End of rambling :) Ikuto?
Ikuto: -_- *drone voice* Please R&R…
