Hi again! Like I said, I'd try and get chapter 3 up tonight, and for once I did! So anyway, this one has Ikuto in it, so I'm sure you'll like it, but please, please review! I'm much more likely to update if I get lots of reviews :D Thanks to everyone that already has! On with chapter 3!

Disclaimer: I don't own Shugo Chara! Do I really have to do this every chapter?

I finally know what I want… You.

Chapter 3 – Morning visitor

Amu woke to the sound of her alarm and stumbled out of bed to turn it off. As she rubbed her eyes she remembered what had happened the night before. Groaning as she realised it wasn't a dream, she turned on her bedroom light and allowed her eyes to adjust to it. The pink haired teen stretched her arms and yawned, tapping lightly on the small red box where her Shugo Chara's slept.

"Wake up girls, it's already ten!" said Amu sleepily. She wandered over to her balcony door and slid the pink curtains open, revealing a beautiful sunny day, typical Japan. Unlocking the glass door, she slid it open and stepped into the cool morning air.

"Gorgeous" she murmured, looking up at the clear blue sky.

"Isn't it?" said a voice to the right of her. Amu almost jumped out of her skin as she whipped round to see a navy haired guy staring at her.

"Ikuto!!" she yelled, "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Well I was bored, and you weren't at the park like usual so I decided to visit you." replied her handsome, yet unwanted guest. With one sudden movement, he brought his face inches from her own. "Out late last night?"

"Uh…I-I, what's it to you?" she replied, a blush crawling across her cheeks as she looked into his mesmerising amethyst-blue eyes.

"You don't usually get up this late." he replied coolly. Amu sighed and gave in.

"I was at a party at Kukai's." she said lazily.

"The soccer guy?" asked Ikuto, as he stared off into the distance. Amu nodded.

"With kiddie-king no doubt." said Ikuto, it seemed like he was talking to himself rather than Amu.

Amu groaned and lightly slapped her hand across her forehead.

"Don't remind me…" she mumbled. Ikuto cocked his head slightly and smirked.

"Tadase bugging you?" he asked sounding slightly more interested.

"You could say that…" she said rolling her eyes.

"Care to elaborate?" said Ikuto as he made his way into her bedroom.

"Hey, Ikuto! Get out of my room!" she cried as she followed the older teen into her room. Her efforts however were pointless as he sat down on her bed as if it were his own house. He patted the space next to him, gesturing her to sit. Amu opened her mouth to say something, but was too tired to argue so she gave in and sat next to him.

"You look cute in P-J's" said Ikuto with a chuckle. Amu felt her face get hotter as she realised she was still in her pyjamas, not only that, but they were covered in tiny kittens, bunnies and other cute, cartoon style animals. Not her character at all… Why couldn't she have worn the pyjamas that highlighted her figure?? Wait… why did she care what Ikuto thought of her anyway.

"So, you gonna explain or what?" said Ikuto, watching Amu carefully. Amu sighed.

"Do I have a choice?" Amu replied reluctantly.

Ikuto laughed.

"Go on then." he said. Amu shook her head, but again, gave in.

"Well, last night he told me he liked me." she said. Ikuto seemed to freeze for a second, but surely it was Amu's imagination? She looked up at him curiously and found him staring at her intensely.

"And?" he asked.

"And… I said no."

Ikuto stayed quiet for a second, but then he started to laugh. Amu could feel her cheeks getting hot once more as she became slightly frustrated.

"Oh shut up…" she mumbled.

"I really thought you liked him." Ikuto said, sounding serious again.

"Well, so did I, but… I dunno. I'm really confused!" she said clasping her hands over her head and falling back on the bed, sighing up at the ceiling. "Things are going to be so awkward now. I'm such an idiot. I could have handled it so much better than I did…"

Ikuto lay back on the bed next to her, but kept his gaze on the ceiling above them.

"Why'd you say no?" he asked.

"Do you really care? You aren't gonna make fun of him are you…" Amu replied, concern obvious in her voice.

"I don't know. I just get curious. And no, the kiddie-kings annoying, but I don't actually hate him. I'm not cruel. You know, I'd hate to be turned down by someone like you. I bet you really hurt him." replied Ikuto. Amu narrowed her eyes and looked at the cat like teenager lying beside her.

"You know, you really aren't helping…" she mumbled, but she couldn't help but smile a bit. She didn't know what he meant by 'someone like you' but it made her happy. Wait what? This was Ikuto, IKUTO!

Ikuto turned to face her and smirked.

"Blushing again Amu? So why'd you say no?" he said out of genuine interest. Amu rolled her eyes at his annoyingly sexy smile, but continued.

"I don't really know. I guess, I just don't like him like that anymore." she said, her mind wandering, making her feel confused yet again. Ikuto turned his body towards her and held his head up with his hand.
"So if you don't like him, who do you like?" he said as a teasing smile formed on his lips again.

"Wha? I…I… N-no one!" she cried innocently as her face turned a light shade of pink. Ikuto took her chin with two fingers and tilted her head up; their lips were now dangerously close.

"Ikuto?" she whispered. The eighteen year old grinned at the control he had over her. He loved it when she looked at him like that, so cute, so innocent…

"Later." he said dully as he casually got up and disappeared over her balcony. Amu lay there, staring in the direction he had left with a look of amazement on her face. He really confused her sometimes…

Amu couldn't help but smile. She had missed his touch, and was glad he came over to see her, but this made her even more curious about her feelings towards him. She had some serious thinking to do now…

Sighing, she sprawled out on her bed and shut her eyes.

Maybe that thinking could wait until she had a well deserved nap…

I know this chapter was short, but I couldn't think of an ending so I decided to leave it there. Oh yeah, and I also decided to make Ikuto 18, almost 19, which makes them about 3 years apart, unrealistic, but oh well! Chapter 4 will definitely be longer! Please review! Wow… I'm really on caffeine high right now, so I might even get the next chapter up tonight too! I'm so hyper!! *giggles* o.O
