NeverStopBeliveing: HI! It's been FOREVER since I've wrote! And I'm so HAPPY! I checked out my story today and guess what! 304 hits! Also, I had 119 VISTORS! THANKS SO MUCH GUYS! As soon as I saw that, I'm like, "screw this homework! I gotta write more for them!" So, yes, I am truly very happy. Oh, and Mi-chan42, I'm guessing your comment was an inspiration to me to continue. Am I correct? Cuz, it really did motivate me to write more. :) Thanks! Oh and to all my reviewers...I LOVE YOU! Please continue to review and read my story.

Ikuto: Can you just get on with the story!

Amu: Yeah, I really want to know why Tadase is so bad...

NeverStopBeliveing: Well, fine. Be that way. All I wanted to do was thank my reviewers.

Ikuto: Well, if you did that then this fanfic would be over 20 pages long and that would only be the beginning. *rolls eyes* You are such a weirdo.

NeverStopBelieving: *glares at him holding a knife behind her back* What did you say? Do you want to die in my fanifc!

Ikuto: NO! NO! I'm sorry NeverStopBelieving-sama! Please forgive me!

NeverStopBelieving: Hmph, I will this time, but do the disclaimer for me.

Ikuto: Ok. NeverStopBelieving-sama is a wonderful person that doesn't own Shugo Chara.

Amu: ON WITH THE STORY!

"Amu...is that ...you?"

No. It can't be him. No. He was the very person who helped ruin my life.

Tadase Hotori.

"T-tadase. W-what are y-you doing h-here?" I asked him slowly backing away.

"Ahh, well, I was invited to this party. So, Amu-chan, how have you been? I haven't seen you in a long time," he said coming closer to me.

"Ah, w-well, I-I was a-adopted b-by th-the T-Tsukiyomi's," I said my back now against the wall.

He kept walking closer.

"Well, Amu-chan, I never thought that I would meet you again like this. You look so beautiful in the gown."

He put both of hands on the wall with his arms around me. Trapping me inside.

I looked up and stared into his dark ruby eyes, but quickly looked back down, blushing.

"G-go away T-tadase."

He leaned down to my ear and whispered, "No."

I put my hands onto his chest and tried to push him away, but he didn't budge.

He dipped his head onto my neck and slowly licked it. I felt cold shivers travel up my spine.

"S-stop T-tadase," I whimpered quietly to him.

"I've found you Amu-chan, now you can't escape from me. Now we can go back to the old days…"

I froze. The old days. The days that haunted me.

Flashback

It all happened after my parents' death. I was alone, confused, and most of all…scared. I had nowhere to go. I was always in the house. Never going out. I hid in the corner of the room where my father killed himself. I didn't tell anyone what had happened yet. I was too afraid. So, I just sat there.

Waiting.

Hoping.

Wishing.

That someone would come and find me.

But…

No one did.

That was until "that" day.

I was sitting there like I would every day. Everything was normal, well, normal to me, until I heard the soft pattering of footsteps. I ignored the footsteps at first. However, the footsteps just got louder and louder. Then, they stopped. I looked up. And for the first time in weeks I was someone alive. It was a boy. He was around the age of 15. He had dark red ruby eyes and shiny blond hair. He looked at me with such eyes of kindness. Out of nowhere, I began to cry.

"Oh, little girl, please don't cry! Please, tell me what's wrong," the blond haired man asked me.

I was silent. Afraid to speak.

"Please. My, name is Tadase, Tadase Hotori. What is your name?"

I looked at him. In his eyes I saw kindness. I saw…trust. So, I spoke.

"M-my n-name i-is A-A-Amu, H-Hinamori A-Amu."

"Well, Amu-chan. Can you tell me what happened?"

So, still crying and hiccupping I told the man named "Tadase" everything. My parents, the accident, everything.

After I finished telling him everything he called the police to come get my father's body out of the house and he took me back to his home.

On the car ride we had a talk.

"Amu-chan," he said, "I want to ask you something."

"O-ok. What is it Hotori-san."

"Well, first of all, call me Tadase and secondly, do you wish to live with me?"

"Oh, Hotori-san…"

"What did I say?"

"I'm sorry," I said to him, "I-I do wish to live with you T-Tadase."

"Okay. Starting from today. We are a family," he said with a smile.

But, what happened was the exact opposite.

Every day, after school, during dinner, before bed, at any possible moment, he would beat me. He beat me and beat me until my skin turned a purplish red and began to bleed. But, that wasn't the bad part. In fact, I was fine with that. He saved me and gave me a home. So, in return I was to obey him.

However, after this. I forgot about that. My life was destroyed.

I had been living with Tadase for 7 years since my parents' tragic death. My skin had scars all over and it was constantly red and covered in bruises.

Then, one day, when I got home, I saw Tadase sitting on the couch. When he saw me enter the house he beckoned me to come closer. I obeyed his orders and went to the couch. Suddenly, he pushed me down. He took out the whip and smacked me. My eyes cried out, but, I was fine with this. He kept beating me, and it was fine. I was fine with it. That was until he raped me. I lied there on the couch after the duty was done. He told me not to tell anyone, but when he was in the shower, I did. I called the police, they arrested him for abuse, and I was sent to the orphanage.

End of Flashback

After 3 years of not seeing him. I was finally adopted by the Tsukiyomi's thinking that I would start a new life, but I was wrong.

"N-no, s-stay away f-from me," I said after remembering the flashback I pushed against him harder, but he still didn't budge.

"Aww, Amu-chan, don't you miss me. I mean, I haven't seen you in 3 years because I was in jail. And whose fault do you think that was?" he whispered putting his hand on my thigh.

I squirmed from the touch.

"It. Was. All. Your. Falut," he said as he began to rub his hand against my thigh.

"N-NO! G-GET AWAY!" I screamed.

The next thing I know, Tadase was thrown to the ground and Ikuto was there.

"Amu, are you ok?" Ikuto asked me coming over to check if anything was wrong.

"Y-yes, I-I'm fine," I said relieved that Ikuto had saved me.

"What did he do to you?" Ikuto asked me hugging me close.

"N-nothing y-yet, but I k-knew him b-before a-and he was touching me a-and h-he's the g-guy t-that…when I was 13…"

"That what? That what Amu? What did he do to you when you were 13?" Ikuto asked me looking into my eyes.

I whispered, "H-he r-raped m-me."

Ikuto snapped. I quickly let go of my arms and walked over to the now trying to get up Tadase.

"You fucking son of a bitch. You fucking did that! TO AMU!" Ikuto yelled out. Everyone was looking now.

Ikuto grabbed Tadase by the collar and punched him in the face. Tadase swung back at him missing. It soon became a blown out fight and everyone was watching in horror.

Ikuto was holding Tadase against the wall and was about to punch him again when I ran up and grabbed his arm.

"STOP! STOP IT IKUTO!" I screamed with tears running down my face.

"AMU LET GO! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS BASTARD DID TO YOU! YOU WERE ONLY 13 FOR GODS SAKE!"

"Yes, I know Ikuto, but please, don't taint yourself because of this. Please, stop. It's already happened. Please, no more fighting."

Ikuto released his grip. He looked at Tadase and looked back at me.

After a while, he shouted out, "GUARDS!"

Three guys in black suits came and asked, "Yes, Ikuto-sama?"

"Please, escort this man out of here and make sure he never comes back."

"Yes Ikuto-sama," they all said at once.

When Tadase was gone, everyone went back to their chattering and dancing. Ikuto looked at me.

"What?" I said not looking him in the eye.

He suddenly grabbed my wrist and brought me into a different room , away from the party.

He grabbed my face and put his forehead to mine forcing me to stare into his deep azure blue eyes.

"You look beautiful tonight," he whispered.

I blushed.

"T-thank you," I mumbled, being too shy to form correct words.

His face got closer to mine.

I started to breathe harder. "I-ikuto…" I said.

"Shhh," he whispered, his lips getting closer to mine.

"I-ikuto, I-I l-lo…" I began, but I never finished because Ikuto's face connected with mine in a sweet kiss.

I've fallen. Yes, I've fallen down a deep deep hole. I've fallen…

…for Ikuto.
