Sorry for the delay, I kept rewriting it. BT

Amu looked at her phone, "Tadase-kun still isn't here." She said wiping her eyes with her sleeve. "What if he doesn't c-come?" Amu asked, leaning back on the couch she was sitting on with Rima.

Rima stared at Amu, unable to help. She was never good at this type of thing… "Amu-chan, I'm sure he'll be here!" Said a voice from above them. Nadeshiko. Thank GOD, Rima thought, smiling at Nadeshiko genuinely.

"Nadeshiko…" Said Amu, sounding more sure, "Sit with us." She begged. Nadeshiko obliged, sitting down next to Amu.

"I'm sure he's just late Amu-chan…" Said Nadeshiko, smiling sweetly at Amu. She put her hand on Amu's leg comfortingly.

Rima met Nadeshiko's eyes with a slight glare, one that meant, 'Remember. You're still a guy.' Nadeshiko, being the actress 'she' is, just stared back pleasantly. "Mashiro-chan, I like your dress!" The purple-haired girl exclaimed warmly.

Rima blinked, "Thank you." She responded cooly, smoothing out the skirt with her hands. Amu wiped her eyes again and managed a smile, "Yes, Rima, it's very pretty… Where did you get it?" the pink-haired girl asked.

"My mother bought it for me." Rima said, pride escaping from her voice. "Where are our Charas?" Rima asked, realizing Kusukusu hadn't checked in since Nagihiko/Nadeshiko showed up.

"The kitchen still a supp-" Amu started to say, interrupted as a creature slammed into her face at full speed.

"O-Ow… What was that for?" Amu asked peeling a pancaked-Ran off her cheek. Kusukusu, Miki, Su, and Daichi followed her over to the guardians.

"Sorry Amu-chan!" Ran said rather cheerfully for a squished Chara. "W-We were playing tag Amu!"

Amu rubbed her red cheek, "In a room with all these people?" She muttered as Eru and Iru too flew over too them.

"Shehehehe…" Giggled Iru, tagging Daichi, "You're it!" The other Charas scattered, but Miki stopped at Amu to answer her question, "They can't see us."

Amu sighed, and looked down at her feet, "I guess you're right…" As soon as she had said 'right', the doorbell rang.

Amu jumped to her feet, "Tadase-kun!" She squealed, practically skipping over to the door.

"I-Ikuto-kun?" Came a surprised voice from the front door. Rima glanced over to where Amu was gaping at Ikuto in the doorway. He had a pleased smirk on his face.

"You, Amu." He said, leaning down and flicking her nose. "Y-You perverted ca- Tadase-kun!" She exclaimed, as a smaller blonde boy walked in from behind Ikuto.

"Hello, Amu-chan…" Tadase greeted her, blushing and looking at his shoes, hands behind his back.

"I'm sorry I'm late… I-I was picking out a present for you… And Ikuto showed up at the mall… and I realized how late I am. Go ahead, Amu-chan…" He said quietly, pulling out a small present.

Amu blushed, as she took the parcel, quickly untying the ribbon and opening the top. "T-Tadase… It's beautiful." It was She looked up at Tadase, smiling and making eye contact with him.

Ikuto, apparently wanting to ruin this moment, leaned over and whispered in Amu's ear, "Now, now… Thinking perverted thoughts, are we, Amu?"

Amu's eyes widened, gaping at him, "W-What? NO." She managed to say before she heard the cry of her father.

"SO MANY BOYS GETTING CLOSE TO AMUUUUUU!" Her father cried, falling to the ground in horror, sobbing and rolling on the carpet as Amu's mother tried to comfort him.

Tadase and Ikuto both looked shocked, and the crowds around them too looked taken aback. Amu stood there in horror. There was a thick atmosphere until suddenly, Ikuto started to laugh.

"I-Ikuto?" Amu murmured as he started to leave. "Merry Christmas, Amu." he said, flashing her a crooked smile, and leaning in to kiss her on the cheek.

"NEE-SAN!" Tadase cried as Ikuto character changed and leaped off, the door still open.

Snow blew into the room, and the atmosphere was cold, other than the cries of her father, "HE KISSED HEEEEEEEER!". Rima stood up from the couch. "I better go." She said, looking at the time on her phone.

Amu blinked as her mother dragged her father upstairs. "R-Rima, I don't think my parents will be able to drive you…" She said, "And I can't walk you home…"

"I'll walk her home." Said a voice from a few feet away. Standing there was Nagihiko, smiling at them. Did he change during THAT? Rima wondered, staring at him, disbelieving.

He was wearing the same cashmere sweater and jeans, but now had a Santa hat snug around his head. The boy had slung the huge purse Nadeshiko had brought in over his shoulder.

"Where's Nadeshiko?" Amu asked. Nagihiko froze, but Rima covered for him, "She had to leave, remember?" She asked Amu as she walked out the door, Nagihiko trailing behind her.

How was that? Rimahiko, Amuhiko, Tadamu, and Amuto all in the same chapter. I try to take care of all your shipping needs. Too bad I couldn't fit in Kutau or Kukamu TT^TT *strokes Kukai* Don't worry, m'dear, I'll get you a main roll in a future story. ^_^
