Chapter 2
Disclaimer: I do not own Shugo Chara or any of its characters ):
Ikuto's POV
She was too cute. The way she was scared and squeezed my hands without knowing? Too Cute. The bumps and shakes that the airplane gave really scared her. I wanted to wrap my arms around her for support, but it might be too much from a stranger that she just met.
Her pink hair smelled too irresistible since she was sitting next to me close. Smelled like strawberry. Ironic isn't it? And her hand was thin, fragile, and soft. I wanted to hold it forever. It made my heart beat out of synchronization since her hands were so warm against mine. I can now see what they mean by love at first sight.
Unfortunately, when the airplane was stable in the sky, she let go of my hand.
"Sorry, my bad."
"No, it was quite cute how you looked scared," I gave her a quick tease.
"Hmmph!"
-- The first hour of the flight--
As the flight went on, me and
Amu kept on going with conversations. I would throw in a few teases
here and then, and that would make her blush go red or make her mad.
-- Third hour of the flight --
Amu's POV
My new acquaintance Ikuto was quite interesting. Aside from his breathtaking looks, he was quite the player. He would throw his charms like winking or teasing me from time to time. We had fun conversations about our families, pet peeves, jobs, and friends. I'd say we're pretty good friends now.
"Did anyone tell you how tempting you look?" Ikuto said as he eyed me.
"No, you're the first to say, actually" I replied.
"Really? Then your friends must be blind." He said as he got closer to my face.
My face was the shade of a light pink. I quickly got up and excused myself to the restroom.
I opened the door. It was
more roomier than the economy class which was fine by me.
I
looked at myself at the mirror and decided to wash my face. The plane
ride was giving me a stuffy feeling. I washed my cheeks, and I rubbed
my neck with cold water.
That felt too good.
"CLINK"
I quickly looked around and to see the most unexpected visitor that has invaded my privacy.
"What are you doing here Ikuto?"
"Oh! I didn't know you were in here, it said vacant in the front."
I thought that maybe this restroom was screwed up so I quickly went over to turn the knob but it was not opening. Great, I was stuck in an airplane's restroom with a hot guy.
I sighed.
Ikuto quickly turned the knobs but it wouldn't budge. He then sighed with me and fell to the ground with his back to the wall.
I yelled for an attendant and one had caught my hearings. She quickly promised to get us out as soon as possible. Until then, she said she would put air conditioner in the restroom so that we don't die from lack of oxygen or any hyperventilating.
--45minutes passed --
He sat across the floor from me, and kept looking up and down at me. It felt weird and awkward. Not to mention that the air conditioner had no help either. I quickly took off my jacket and washed my neck with cold water again.
"Are you getting hotter because I'm in the same room as you?" Ikuto teased with humour in his eyes.
"Not necessarily true Mr. Violinist" I stuck my tongue at him.
Then, all of a sudden, the airplane shook really badly and I fell right down to the ground. My body fell right into his. My legs intertwining with his legs, my hands at his sides, my nose touching his, and our lips just few centimetres away.
He smirked at me like always, and said, "See? You're such a temptation."
