A/N: Hi, new chapter. Read it. Now.
----Recap!
"I just...." I started, my voice cracking. I shook me head. "You were all replacing me, Ikuto."
"No we weren't!"
"Rima?"
----End Recap!
Ikuto looked at Rima, and then back at me.
I blinked.
Was Rima.... glaring at me?
"I have to get back to work. I'll let Chibi take it from here," Ikuto said, sighing.
Rima nodded, and walked towards me, brushing Ikuto's shoulder in the process.
"Amu, why would we replace you? We love you. If I wasn't totally in love with Nagi, I would be all over you! Well.... maybe not, but, still! You know that Ikuto loves you. You know that I love you. You know that we all love you! How could you think tht we didn't?! Amu, Ikuto was practally dead when you went into that coma! He crashed. He broke down. And when he heard that you were transfered to Germany- guess what?! He cried, Amu. Cried. He told me not to tell you.... bu-but...."
Rima's face started to flush, and her eyes started to water. She was looking at me, her lips were quirving.
She wasn't faking it.
"I need you!" she shouted at me. Nagihiko and Kukai, when they saw you... and Yaya, too! We all cried! I think Ikuto did, too, but I couldn't see him! I went in the ambulance with you, but so did he! We didn't talk, or.. Amu...."
And just like that, Rima was in a ball, crying.
"Rima..."
"You know what happened to us, Amu? Before, we could hardly do anything. A mounth, and you were still in that damn coma. Namie came, dressed as some fake thing that she named Aya. Amu... I was the first to give in. I'm sorry. She helped me.... she made me hope even more that you would live, and that you would wake up. Amu.... I-I'm sorry..."
I picked Rima up and hugged her. Strocking her hair, I said, "Rima, you are my best friend. I will forgive you, and Yaya, and Kukai, and Nagihiko, but not him. At least, not yet."
When she looked up at me, her eyes were puffy and red. Her face was still flushed a bit, and she had tear-stains running down her face.
"Bu-but, Amu-!"
"Not yet, Rima."
She looked back down.
"We-well, can you at least try? Make a start? Go back to the way things were, before the memory loss?" Rima asked, looking hopeful.
I blinked. She wanted me to go back to our old like-hate realationship? Where we would play pranks on each other? And get revenge?
I nodded. I could do that.
"Thank you, Amu. Do you want me to tell him or..."
"Yeah, you tell him. I should get back to my date...." I looked over to Danny.
He was drinking chocolate milk.
"Alright. And Amu?"
I looked back to her. "Yeah?"
"Call me. We'll three-way with Yaya."
I smiled. "Okay. See ya."
"Later," Rima smiled, and ran off.
I walked back to my table.
"Sooo?" Danny asked.
"So what? Come on, let's go."
He nodded, not fully understanding, but went with it anyway.
"I still want my revenge," I said.
And with that, we were out of there.
