Yumiko: Hey guys, I'm back with a new chapter.

Ikuto: so, you have anything else to say?

Yumiko: Yeah, um actually, I do. Can you guys stop with the Tadase hating reviews? Seriously, I'm tired of reading: GET TADASE OUT OF THE STORY!11!11 AIDS, BABY PENIS. I mean really. You dont have to stop completely, like you could say: Tadase is a dick, ew. But there's people threatening not to read my story if I add him. OH I'M SO FUCKING FRIGHTENED. I really don't give a crap if you don't read my story to be honest. I post these stories for myself and for the nice people willing to read and say nice stuff.

Amu: Uh, damn. So uh, Disclaimer: Yumiko does not own shugo chara or any of it's characters.

Yumiko: BTW, SORRY FOR NOT ADDING IN THE OOC'S ALOT. I'M JUST TRYING TO GET THE MAIN PLOT IN FASTER :)

Ikuto's POV:

We sat there in silence, no one bothering to move a muscle. The guy –Tadase- just stood there, mouth slightly agape. Finally he let out a smile.

''Hinamori-san! It's nice to see you again!'' He said as he walked over to us.

I sat up, letting Amu get up and give him a hug.

I don't know why it bothered me. I don't even like Amu.

I just want to fuck her.

I stood up next to Amu, the blonde guy eyeing us carefully.

''And this is...?'' He asked.

''Tsukiyomi Ikuto.'' I said as I held out my hand.

He shook my hand, but didn't seem very happy to.

''Is this your boyfriend?'' Tadase asked.

''No wa-!''

''Contract.'' I whispered in her ear before she finished her sentence. She blushed, irritated. I smirked before giving her ear a small nip.

''Yes I am.''

Tadase scowled slightly, but then smiled again.

''I...I see! Congratulations!'' he said in a fake, cheerful voice.

He turned and left into the crowd of dancing people.

''Tadase!'' Amu called out before running in after him.

I didn't stop her. What was the point?

It wasn't like she'd listen to me, anyhow.

I didn't care that much either, too be honest.

So she got a guy mad at her, big whoop?

Amu's POV:

I elbowed my way through the crowd, trying to find a head of blonde. There were many, but not Tadase's.

I checked everywhere in the living room, and bathrooms. I decided to check the kitchen.

Elbowing my way out of the crowd, I walked down the hall to the kitchen.

Sure enough, there was Tadase, sulking into his drink.

I walked up beside him, slightly out of breath.

''Tadase...'' I managed to say.

He looked up at me.

I swear guys, if looks could kill, I'd be dead about a million times already. He had the most hurt look on his face.

I just stared at him, wide-eyed.

I had never seen a look like that before.

I had caused that. Tears started brimming in my eyes.

I couldn't bring myself to look at Tadase.

''Um...I'm...I'm really sorry...'' I hiccupped as I wiped the corner of my eye with my paw.

Before he could speak, I ran away, down the hall, hiccupping and sobbing as tears flowed down my face.

I bumped shoulders with someone who felt oddly familiar. I mumbled a quick sorry before rummaging through the crowd and up the stairs to Ikuto's and now my room.

Ikuto's POV:

I decided I would look for Amu and went back inside. Not being able to find her in the crowd, I found Utau and asked her where she was.

''I saw her go into the kitchen a little while ago...'' Utau trailed off, pointing down the hall.

I nodded and began walking towards the kitchen. Suddenly, Amu came bursting out of the kitchen in tears. Not noticing me, she bumped my shoulder.

I heard her mumble a quick sorry before running up the stairs.

I scowled.

Now, I was mad.

I feel like I should protect her. I know I'm only trying to fuck her, but, I could stick up for her right?

She wasn't a bad person.

Walking into the kitchen I saw Tadase looking into his drink. I walked up to him, placing my hand on the counter he was leaning on, putting my weight onto it.

''Hey, you little fucker.'' I snapped, causing him to look at me.

''How'd you manage to make her cry?'' I asked as I glared at him.

''I didn't do anything. She looked at me and started crying.'' Tadase explained.

Before I could say anything more, three drunken girls barged into the room.

Oh my god. It's Akari, Kyara, and Kimiki.

''HEEEEEEEEEYYYY IKUTO.'' Kyara yelled.

''WHO'S THIS FAGGOT?'' She said while pointing to Tadase.

''ISN'T THAT A GIRL?'' AKARI YELLED.

''NOT SURE, BUT HE/SHE GOT PUUURDY HAIR.'' Kyara said as she grabbed a strand of his blonde hair.

''WHO IS HE, IKUTO?'' Kimiki asked.

''A retard whose in love with Amu.'' I explained.

''OH HELL NO!'' Kyara yelled.

''AS LONG AS I'M WRITING THIS STORY NO FAGGOT OTHER THAN IKUTO IS ENDING UP WIT-''

Akari slapped her hand over Kyara's mumbling mouth as Kimiki grabbed her across her torso. They began to drag her out.

''RAPE.'' Kyara screamed.

''YOU KNOW YOU LIKE IT.'' Akari yelled.

''DON'T DENY YOUR FEEEEELLLLIIINNNGGGS.'' Kimiki yelled as they dragged Kyara out.

With that they were gone. Sighing, I turned back to Tadase.

''Listen, just make up with her.'' I explained.

''Why?'' He snapped.

''Because...apparently you were important to her, so yeah.'' I said as I scratched the back of my head.

''Okay, but, how?'' He asked.

I looked around, thinking of an answer.

''Um, why don't you...stay here for a few weeks?'' I suggested.

''It'll give you time to make-up?'' I said, sounding unsure.

He agreed and I left upstairs to see Amu.

Before I even entered the room, audible sobs could be heard outside of the room. I walked in, the sobs immediately stopping.

Amu looked at me, tears streaming down her cheeks.

''Ikuto, I did something bad.'' She hiccupped.

She was sitting on her knees on the bed, her paws rubbing at her eyes. I sat at the edge of the bed, not saying a word.

''I'm a bad person.'' She sobbed as she slightly moved closer to me.

''No.'' I breathed out.

''You're not.'' I said as she looked up at me.

''Thank-you...'' She sobbed again, this time coming a lot closer to me.

She placed her head on my shoulder and just cried. And, not really silently, but really, really crying.

I just looked up and out the window, placing my hand on her head, slightly stroking her hair.

My plan...could be held off for a little while...right?

Normal POV:

Soon, after many hours of crying and comfort, they finally drifted off to sleep,

Amu was the first to awake at 9:35 a.m.

She yawned and stood up from the bed, grabbing a change of clothes and going into the bathroom they had in their room. After exiting, fully dressed, Amu decided to get breakfast. She opened the door and was met with Tadase, who had been walking by at the moment.

''Ah, morning, Hinamori-san.'' He said with a smile.

Amu froze before stepping back in the room and shutting the door.

She looked behind her, seeing Ikuto had awoken.

''Ikuto!'' She hissed in a low whisper.

''Mm?'' He said, not fully awake yet.

''Why is Tadase here?'' She snapped.

''Oh, that. I kinda said he could stay over so you guys could make up.'' He explained.

Amu walked over to Ikuto and smacked his arm, hard.

''Ow!'' He yelled.

''That's what you get for being stupid!'' She yelled.

Amu opened the door again, and was met with Tadase.

''Is something wrong, Hinamori-san?'' Tadase asked.

Amu stuttered, not managing to say anything.

Ikuto's hand suddenly covered her mouth and looked at Tadase.

''She's not really able to talk without getting something in her tummy.'' Ikuto said in a cute, mocking tone as he tickled her stomach.

Amu blushed and pouted her lips, although, covered by Ikuto's hands.

Tadase nodded in understanding. They all went downstairs to eat breakfast.

After eating, they went into the living room.

Amu and Ikuto had to sit together on one couch, since, well; they had to pretend like they were dating.

Ikuto had his arm around Amu's shoulders as they sat. Tadase was across from them, fidgeting.

Aya and Seishiro burst through the door.

''We're here to play again!'' Aya yelled cheerfully.

Seishiro sat a decent distance away from Tadase on the couch, and Aya came and plopped onto Seishiro's lap. Seishiro placed his arm around her waist.

Ikuto's grip tightened on Amu's shoulders. Amu winced slightly and looked up at Ikuto, he was showing a small scowl.

Ikuto noticed her staring and turned to her.

''What?'' He asked.

''Nothing.'' Amu said simply, turning away.

''Tell me.'' He said as he inched her face closer to hers.

''No.'' Amu said stubbornly, inching away from his face.

He inched even closer, a smirk stretching across his lips.

They both had not noticed the three other people watching them.

''Tell me, Amu.'' Ikuto said.

He now had Amu pinned under him on the couch. He had trapped her wrists and locked her legs with his.

''N-No.'' Amu said with a slight smile.

''Fine, you leave me no choice.'' Ikuto smirked wider.

He began tickling her to no end.

''S-Stop Ikuto!'' Amu yelled while laughing.

''Are you going to tell me?'' He asked.

''Never!'' Amu yelled.

After minutes of torturing Ikuto gave it up. Amu was panting and still slightly laughing while the other three just stared.

They got comfortable on the couch again, making small talk with the other. Suddenly, Aya began nuzzling her head into Seishiro's neck. After a while of their slight kissing and 'couple-ness' Ikuto snapped.

''Excuse me, I have to go do something.'' He said as he stood up, leaving up the stairs.

Amu's stare hardened.

She left up the stairs without a word and opened the door to her room.

''Ikuto.'' Amu called out to him.

Ikuto was lying on the bed with his arm over his eyes.

''I have a plan.'' She said.

''Hn.'' Ikuto said.

Amu took this as sign to continue.

''We'll help each other.'' Amu continued.

Ikuto sat up slowly and looked at her full on.

''What do you mean?'' He asked.

''I'll help you with Aya if you help me with Tadase.'' She explained.

''Are you insane?'' Ikuto said.

''We have to follow that contract thing.'' He reminded.

''Think about it, Ikuto! We'll get three times more publicity if we do this.'' Amu compromised.

Ikuto bit the inside of his cheeks, thinking of an answer.

''Fine. But, we should make this a little more fun.'' He smirked.

Amu eyed him.

''How?''

''If I don't get Aya to fall in love with me, I get to fuck you.'' Ikuto wagered.

Amu thought about it.

''Fine. Fair enough. But, If I win, you have to wear a purity ring.'' Amu smirked.

Ikuto scowled at her.

''Fine.''

''Let's shake on it.'' Amu said as she held out her hand.

Ikuto looked at it before smirking. He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him, smacking his lips onto hers as she lost her balance and fell onto him.

He pulled away, and looked at her straight in the eyes.

''Let the games begin.'' He said with a serious face.

Amu said nothing as she stared at him with wide-eyes.

Yumiko: This is what I meant. You guys are probably mad that their helping each other with their rivals. But, I wanted this to be like a real anime ish story where they don't find out they like each other until near the end. BUT, I'M NOT ONE OF THOSE BUTTFUCKS WHO END IT WITH I LOVE YOU'S AND A KISS. NO, THERE WILL BE CHAPTERS ON THEIR DATING. Okay, so, don't get mad about this chapter, just stick with it until the end. Thanks.

Ikuto: Well, I'm tired and have nothing to say so...

Amu: PLEASE R+R! :D
