Celebrity Punishment Chapter 15: One Of Those Girls, a shugo chara! fanfic

Hello Everyone

We have a day off YAY!

But I've been helping my mum with the gardening which has been pretty tedious...

So hope you enjoy this chapter :)

I looked at the audience and gulped. Did this hall always be so big? I never noticed how many people could fit in here. It was the whole year and they were staring at me with excited looks on their faces. I felt really nauseous, much worse than the times I had to do presentational homework in a class. This felt a million times worse than anything I've ever experienced before.

I took a deep breath trying to calm myself down. I bet that when I start singing all this nervousness will disappear. But for now I have the problem of actually starting. Rima was in the crowd with a huge reassuring smile on her face. I could tell she was wishing me good luck. I really needed it. I smiled back at her as I gave the band people behind me the music they had to play. They smiled at me as they got ready to start.

Ok, deep breath, pretend that no one is there, whew. I grinned as I opened my eyes and nodded at the band people as they started to play. I can't believe I am making my second song on my album and I am performing it live. Well, it is at my school but still. I took out the microphone from the stand as I tapped my feet ready to come in. I took a deep breath as the song began.

One of those girls by Avril Lavigne

I know your kind of girl
You only care about one thing
Who you've seen, or where you've been
Who's got money

I see that look in your eyes
It tells a million lies
But deep inside, I know why
You're talking to him

I know what you're all about
I really hope he figures it out

She's one of those girls
They're nothing but trouble
Just one look and now you're seeing double
Before you know it she'll be gone
Off to the next one
She's so good that you won't see it coming
She'll take you for a ride and you'll be left with nothing
You'll be broken, she'll be gone
Off to the next one

Oh oh oh
Off to the next one
Oh oh yeah yeah oh oh

She's gonna be the end of you
At least that's what they say
It's been a while
You're in denial
And now it's too late
The way she looks makes you high
All the warning signs
Cause her blond hair, her blue eyes
Makes you wanna die

I know what she's all about
I really hope you figure it out

You know it's a game, you know it's a game
She keeps playing around with your head, playing around with your head
She's so insane, so insane
She's the one to blame, she's the one to blame
She's one of those girls
They're nothing but trouble
Just one look and now you're seeing double
Before you know it she'll be gone
Off to the next one
She's so good that you won't see it coming
She'll take you for a ride and you'll be left with nothing
You'll be broken, she'll be gone
Off to the next one

Oh oh oh
Off to the next one
Oh oh yeah yeah
Off to the next one

When the song ended all I heard was a short silence that followed onto loud ear-deafening screams. I grinned as I listened to them. That felt great, it was the best feeling ever. I felt so into it, like I was supposed to be there, like I was fated to be there. Man, am I tired though. I waved goodbye which followed more screams like, 'WE LOVE U AMU! YOU'RE AMAZING!' as I walked off the stage. The first person I laid eyes on after that was of course, Ikuto. I looked at him the grin now wiped from my face. I walked over to him as we stared at each other in silence. The first one to talk was Ikuto.

"So you're giving me advice in a song?" he asked.

Yup, pretty much. That's what I was doing, I was basically advising him to break up with her. Why? Because she's one of those girls, they're nothing but trouble. He knew very well what I meant. Now all I wanted to know was why he changed. That's the only thing left to uncover.

"Are you going to tell me the whole story then?" I questioned.

He sighed, a long exasperated sigh as he weakly smiled.

"Fine then. If you must know," he said giving in.

He started to walk as we headed out of anybody's eyes and to a secluded area where no one could hear the conversation that would soon be told. We stopped as I waited eagerly. He sat down his back against a wall as I did the same. He looked down at the floor and opened his mouth to speak.

"This is what happened," he said as I listened carefully.

-Flashback!-

"Ikuto, please!" Utau shouted as she ran after Ikuto who was heading for the door.

He picked up his violin as he kicked the door violently open and stormed outside. How could she? How dare she? He thought that he loved her, but her love was a lie. Like every stinking thing in this world. She only did it for the fame, and nothing else. Even though it had been a month since he told her that they were breaking up she still wouldn't give up. He couldn't break up with her anyway, not unless that contract was torn to shreds. That's exactly what he would have to do; he didn't want this to go on any longer. He knew where it was hiding, probably in the head of Easter's office. He didn't care what anyone said, or if they tried to stop him, he was going to end this once and for all. Ikuto heard a sound of crying as he turned his head. She was...crying. But didn't she just care for the fame and popularity. She never had any feelings for him, none. So why on Earth was she crying?

He shook his head, she was probably crying because she knew her little plan would end. Serves her right. He came to the Head's office as he tried to open the door. Damn, it was locked. He cursed under his breath as he hit his fists hard on the door. He turned around sharply and headed for the exit. Utau was still following every step she took were wobbly and clumsy. She couldn't control her own body, she felt so weak, she felt like nothing. Ikuto gritted his teeth, was that damn girl going to follow him everywhere? Seriously, she just didn't get it. Goodbye meant goodbye, it didn't mean follow me like a stalker everywhere I go. She didn't understand, she didn't understand anything. They were now at the crossroads. The light was on green but Ikuto did not cross the road instead he turned around and looked at Utau with resentment. Utau trembled at the intense fury in his eyes.

"Utau, just go, now," he ordered her not looking at her directly.

But she didn't move an inch.

Instead she stood there shaking her head like crazy. She looked at him a look that made Ikuto feel insecure.

"You've got it all wrong! I didn't know about that contract. I promise I didn't..."

"Don't lie Utau, you were the one who suggested for me to sign it in the first place!" he interrupted her shouting.

They were now beginning to draw attention as many unfamiliar faces looked at them. But Ikuto and Utau both didn't seem to notice.

"No, please Ikuto believe me. I do love you. I always have. That contract, I never knew it was about that!" Utau begged.

Ikuto snorted as he turned back around looking at the road in front of him.

"Get lost Utau,"

Utau at that point stopped completely. She stopped crying and shaking all together. She knew that she couldn't get through to him. Easter had completely ruined everything. She had thought what she was signing was a contract for Ikuto and Utau's song that they had recorded together. But she was wrong, and now this was the consequence. She had enough, she couldn't take anymore. She sighed as she wiped the tears from her eyes and walked in front of Ikuto. She would take his advice, she would get lost. She would be out of his sight, for good. She walked onto the road not noticing that the light had flashed on red. Ikuto watched her as she stood in the middle of the road. He looked at the light as his mouth gaped open realising what could happen. She was going to...how could she do something like that? Or maybe she just hadn't noticed. But he had to do something, quickly. He heard a beeping sound from up ahead as he turned his head to see a great big truck speeding towards Utau. No, he did not want to see this happen. He couldn't. He clenched his fists as he ran into the road and grabbed Utau out the way as the truck sped past them in the nick of time. So close. Ikuto's eyes were wide, what an adrenaline rush. Utau looked at him, amazed at what he had done. She stood up slowly.

"You saved my life," she whispered under her breath.

Ikuto looked up at her as a new feeling overwhelmed him. This feeling was neither love nor hate; instead it was that brotherly feeling. A feeling of wanting to protect someone so dear to you.

He looked up at her tearstained face promising himself then and there that he would always look after her.

In any means necessary.

-End of Flashback!-

My eyes were wide as Ikuto finished and stared down at the ground. Oh my lord, I never thought it would be something like that. So Ikuto stayed with Utau for only that reason. Ikuto looked at me from the corner of his eye watching my face intently. He sighed loudly.

"That's why I can't break up with her. If I did I'd be breaking her heart once again. I don't want the same thing to occur," he paused, "I don't even know how I would do it,"

This was mad, so mad. If what Utau had said was true then that meant that Easter had created that whole mess. They had made them sign a contract that only made Ikuto angry. But why though? I thought over this as Ikuto stood up. I looked up at him as I slowly stood up as well. He was looking into the distance rather dreamingly. It was like he was in deep thought. He looked at me a small smile tugging at his lips.

"Even though I can't hurt her, it's inevitable that I break up with her. There is a reason after all," he said then smirked out of the blue at me.

I narrowed my eyes, what is with this weird change of attitude. One minute he's all Mr. Depressed, the next he's Mr. Smirk-y. His mood changes annoy me. Of course it was inevitable, what happened if he fell in love with someone. Wait; there is a reason after all. Could he, could he possibly be...in love? I looked at him as he stared at me back. If that's true I wonder who it is.

"So when are you gonna tell her?" I said as I nudged him.

He shrugged, "Whenever the right opportunity shows up I guess,"

It was kind of like fate that at that time, Utau, the girl herself, came running to us. We both looked at her in surprise. I eyed Ikuto giving him the look that he knew meant,' here's your chance,' Utau smiled at him and gave me a quick suspicious look. She hugged Ikuto as he stayed as stiff as a stone.

"Hi Ikuto!" she squealed, "I came to see you,"

She should really have stayed away. Ikuto looked down at the floor as I waited for what would come next. I think he was mostly scared of how she would react. He looked at her intensely as he put his hands on her shoulders.

"Listen Utau, there's something I need to tell you," he started as she smiled back at him waiting for him to continue.

That smile would soon disappear.

"I...I want to break up with you," he said straightforwardly.

Utau's smile did disappear as she looked at him with a shocked look in her eyes. She stepped back her arms shaking. She then looked at me, a look that made me shiver. She pointed at me, tears beginning to form in her eyes.

"It's all because of her isn't it?" she said looking from me to Ikuto.

Ikuto didn't say anything. Utau walked right up to me which made me back against the wall. Her tears were beginning to fall down her cheeks as she looked away and back at Ikuto once more.

"I thought that you cared for me?" she questioned.

"I do," Ikuto said.

She seemed to go absolutely crazy at this remark. She clenched her teeth shaking her head.

"You don't! You care about her, not me. You never cared about me, after that,"

Ikuto's head snapped up abruptly which made Utau step back in fright.

"Of course I care about you! You know I do, Utau. But just not in the way that you care about me. I love you, but like a sister," he shouted back at her.

Utau looked taken aback at what Ikuto had said, but instead of retorting back and crying some more she wiped her eyes and gently smiled. Ikuto's mouth was open as he stared at her in disbelief. He probably never thought he'd be able to get through to her. We both thought it would have been impossible. But this time, he had. I heaved a deep sigh glad that they had sorted it out. Thank god for that.

"Ok, Ikuto. I understand," Utau looked at me the smile quickly disappearing from her face, "But if she ever does anything to you, you know who to come to,"

She smiled again as she walked away as we watched her leave. Even in the end she still thought that I was stealing him and that he liked me. I laughed as she disappeared from sight. Ikuto sighed throwing his head back.

"God, I thought that would have taken longer," he sighed and chuckled slightly.

He looked at me with a gentle smile as he patted me on the head and played with my hair. He ran his fingers through it like I was some kind of cat or dog.

"Hey," I giggled, "Stop doing that!"

He smirked at me only to ruffle my hair into a mess. I pouted as I sorted out my hair. I glared at him as he laughed at me back.

"Thank you, Amu," he thanked, "For everything,"

My mouth opened a little but I shut it immediately. He was sure acting weird. I smiled back at him.

"Sure,"
