Not a chapter

Okay people. You have not heard from me in , what? Probably about a year. Most people always have an excuse, like, I had to move or my computer crashed. Well….I don't have an excuse to give you, just that I was busy working this summer and school and sports have been kicking my butt. I'm trying to get back into the writing spirit and I'm going have a new story up for you guys too! I know it's not very smart when I can't even write on this one, but I'll try to get either of them updated a least once a month.

Look for the new story. Go to my page and see what you think. I have to figure out a title. It shall be called:….Unnamed. until I get a title.

Here's part of the chapter that I have had typed up for a while. I'll try to follow it up soon!

Please don't have forgotten me people!

I do not own Shugo Chara.

Chapter 10

Utau. "Hi," I said lamely, not knowing what else to say.

She cocked her head. "Ya know, people usually introduce themselves back," she said kind of coldly.

"Oh, u-uh, my name's Amu."

She nodded her head, like she had confirmed something. "What are you doing later?"

I was taken aback at this. We had just met each other and she was already acting like we were great friends.

"We-w-well, nothing really. Just swimming."

"okay, well, do you want to..- ah, hold on." She reached into a pocket that was on her swimsuit and took out a purple phone. Man this girl liked purple. Seriously. And where did she have that cell phone?

I saw her glance at the ID, which I could see was flashing, and a look of confusion and agitation crossed her features. She flipped open the phone.

"Will you have some patience!" she said with breathy words. "I was just about to—", she listened and rolled her eyes

"Yes, I was gonna—" her words choked off again. Confusion once again flitted across her face. "Why," she asked in agitation and genuine curiosity. Then she sat up straight, her mouth set in a line. "Look, you have been pestering me to," she glanced at me as if she had forgotten me. "to help, and now you're telling me no to! Make up your mind!"

She leaned forward, and it looked like she was amused.

"You what? Hah, you idiot!" she practically shouted, her voice echoed across the lake and I cringed. She was so Loud! I glanced over and Utau was bent over the jet ski, laughing, her head off. her cell phone was back in her pocket. Good thing too, because she probably would have dropped it.

Finally, her laughter died down, and she sat up, using her finger to wipe away the tears mixing with the water dripping off her hair.

I looked at her questioningly. "What was that all about?"

She just shook her head. "mmp-family idiodicy."

I just nodded in knowledge and dismissed the subject. It wasn't my area to pry in that was her business.

"Well, I'll see you later, Amu." With that, she swung the handles around and sped off, sending another wall of glittering water towering over me. this time, I didn't move and I got drenched.

My whole body shivered and my skin clamed up. Blechhh.

I glanced up at the sky and sighed. I still had the whole day left, but I didn't feel like doing much. Just then, my family and the Tsukiyomis pulled up in the boat next to the float.

"Amuuu" my father called. "Want to go skiing again? I need to get some action shots for the magazine!" He mimed clicking the camera.

I glared at him and flopped back down onto the float.

"Okay, later than, Amu. Have fun while we're gone. And no boys!" The last part he yelled as they pulled away.

I rolled my eyes at him and grimaced as I rolled over toward the water. I glanced over the edge and looked at the water lightly bouncing from the waves created by the boat. It looked cold.

Better get it over with.

I slid in head first, like a crocodile. My hands stretched straight out to push off of the bottom as quickly as I could.

As soon as I slid in, I almost gasped from the coolness of the water. Even without the sunburn that Ikuto had, it was still a tip-toe walk back.

When I got back to the shore, I grabbed my clothes from the sand and walked back to the cabin. The only thing that I could think about was my bed, because, suddenly, I became really tired. Too much lazing around all day. And Ikuto.

I yawned a jaw-cracking yawn and scowled. He really should learn to leave me alone. Why does he always have to bug me soo much!

As if you didn't know.

I blinked, but kept walking. I rubbed my eyes and looked around to make sure that I wasn't falling asleep. Great, I'm going to fall asleep walking. I'm already hearing voices. Not another Ikuto dream! Please! I groaned out loud.

Luckily, there were no more voices and I made it to my house. I slugged up the steps and opened the door to my room. I wanted to head right to my bed, but the thought of a nice long soak in the tub seemed so nice to me.

I swung my head toward the bathroom door and my body eventually followed suit.

I almost walked into the door that was somehow closed, but I saw the base of the door in time. I turned the knob, having to concentrate really hard to turn it. I didn't even have the strength to push it open. I had to lean against it to open it.

I rolled my body around the slightly opened door and leaned against it to shut it.

I locked it to prevent my nosy mom from coming in and turned around.

If a hand had not covered my face right then, I would have screamed. But he had anticipated this and was ready.

The first thing that I encountered when I turned around, expecting to see the white walls of my bathroom, were two sparkling blue orbs.

Ikuto.

I glared back at him, anger seething off me, but I felt myself weakening. I was so tired.

He smirked, mistaking the calming in my eyes for surrender.

"Aww, warming up to me already Amu?"

I reached up and yanked his arm off of my face. His face scrunched up at the harsh touch to his sunburn.

"What the hell are you doing here!?"

"Well, my sunburn was hurting really bad, and I didn't feel like walking all the way back to my cabin, so I decided to crash at your place. Plus, I thought a bath would help."

He turned his head and I looked past him to see my large bathtub half-full of water.

I blushed and glanced down at his legs. He isn't----oh thank god! He was still wearing his swimming trunks.

"You idiot! You could have at least locked the door! What if I had come in here and you were naked?"

"I was hoping that you would join me and I thought that you would be more comfortable with having clothes on. Although----"

"I'm not even comfortable with you now. No way in Hell am I going to take a bath with you. "

"Awww, come on Amu." He pouted.

I turned around with my hands crossed over my chest. "No," I repeated and started moving towards the door.

Suddenly, he grabbed my arms from behind and whisked me over toward the bath before I had a chance to react. He lifted me inside and closed the glass doors (it's one of those showers with the glass sliding doors) so I couldn't escape.

Tell me what you think and watch for my new story. I hope to have it up tonight.
