Me:: In two days I've written two full chapters and going onto number three!! I'm on a roll!!!
Ikuto:: Sucks you have to wait 48 hours to post anything!
Rima:: And she just made the account on the 27th… [Today]
Me:: Will you quit making me feel awful?! Nagi! Amu!!
*Nagihiko and Amu run into the picture*
Rima:: *pointing at Nagihiko* If you say a word, I won't speak to you
Nagihiko:: …
Rima:: Talk! Answer me!
Ikuto:: But if he answers you then you won't talk to him anymore…*sighs*
Rima:: *glares at Nagihiko* Evil Genius
Nagihiko:: *smiles*

Me:: Dammit Amu! You stole my thunder!!

Ikuto's P.O.V.:
Okay, me and my mom were invited over to Amu's house by her mother and let me say: IT WAS SO FUCKING AWKWARD! I sat across from Amu at her dinner table, receiving the odd glances Amu was giving me at this scene of our mother talking and giggling like they use to… but Amu probably doesn't remember.
"You know Ikuto-kun still has that picture!" I heard my mother gasp.
"Really? I kept that same picture in Amu's room!" Ms. Hinamori gasped, giggling.
I saw Amu shift in her seat a couple of times before she excused herself and walked inside; I felt a nudge at my side: it was my mother.
"Go on…" Ms. Hinamori pleaded.
I stood up, excusing myself before following Amu inside. She wasn't in the kitchen… Not in the living room… I walked upstairs and sure enough there was Amu standing in front of her window that was right across from mine.
"Amu…" I kept my voice low enough, hoping not to scare her.
She jumped a little then her head dropped lower; she looked like she was clutching something…
Amu's P.O.V.:
What is this feeling? I was standing in front of my desk that stood beneath the one window that gave me clear view into Ikuto's room. Why does this picture make me want to cry?
"Amu…" I jumped; I hadn't heard anyone come inside.
I let my head drop so that my bangs fell over my face, clutching the picture frame that our parents had mentioned before during dinner.
"…what…?" My response was barely audible.
"I was just worried… Is everything okay?" I heard Ikuto ask.
I just don't understand… Why is it him? I don't even know who he is but he's in this picture with me… I could feel the warm drops sliding down my face as I tried to come up with an answer.
"Amu…" His voice sounded closer than before.
I glanced over my shoulder, trying to find out how close he was to me but I got lost… His eyes… They swallowed me up… I could see how much pain he was in just by standing close to me; our breaths mingled in the small space between us. Why does it seem like he's moving closer…? His hand came into view out of the corner of my eyes; I slammed my eyes shut as I felt his hand against my face.
"What's wrong? You were crying." He spoke with such a low voice that made the tears fall faster.
One second his hand was against my face then next something warm pressed against me. No, it wasn't… THAT! I slowly opened my eyes, feeling some stray midnight blue hair tickling my nose.
Ikuto's P.O.V.:
Seeing her crying, I couldn't control myself; her eyes were shut so I acted on my own. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled myself close to her body. I could feel her against my clothes, still sobbing. And then… she stopped… I swallowed hard before I spoke: "Amu… No matter what I have and always will be here for you."
I could feel something hard against my chest; I tried to pull away to find out what it is but I felt her grip tighten on my shirt. I froze in my spot… 'Is she doing this unconsciously?'' I asked myself, as I stared down at the top of her head.
"Ikuto… I'm sorry but would it be okay if you held me for a little longer?" I heard Amu's muffled question.
I wrapped my arms back around her tightly, feeling a small smile spread across my face. I told myself to hold her until she pushed me away but my thoughts were interrupt when I felt her breathing slow. I glanced down at her; "Amu?"
No response. I tried again; still no response. I picked her up noticing that she had fallen asleep.
"Just like old times, eh Amu?" I grinned staring down at her sleeping face.
"You're everything I want in someone but you don't even know who I am."
Me:: See? See? Told you! I'd make an Amuto moment!!
Kukai:: What about Kutau moment? You can make me one of those, can't you?? *pouting*
Kairi:: *chibi flailing of arms* No! No!
Nagihiko:: *stands in front of the two* Don't make Csi-chan do anything… *sighs* and besides…
Rima:: *appears* SHE'D MAKE A RIMAHIKO MOMENT BEFORE EITHER OF YOU!
Ikuto:: Glad I'm the main character
Amu:: *sweat drop* I agree…
Me:: Well, I'm still on a role… I am sorry if these chapters seem short to some of you *nervous giggle*
Ikuto:: Let's face it you suck at fanfics…
Amu:: Don't be so harsh
Me:: *sobs* That doesn't make it better Amu
Utau:: Well suck it up! Ms. Author!
Me:: Waaah! Kukai!!! Utau's being mean!!!!
Kukai:: *sweat drop* Is this really how someone almost 18 acts?
Ikuto:: *leans in close to me* Yeah… Is this how a girl almost 18 acts?
Me:: *blushes* no… I'll behave
Amu:: *mutters* Perverted Kiss-Ass!
Me:: I might be a little slow uploading chapter four 'cause of school... but when I do upload it later this week [This I promise!!] but I need a song lyric to go along with the next chapter.
Ikuto:: Don't you think you might want to let them know what you want to happen next...??
Me:: O.O TADASE MEETS AMU AND IKUTO GETS JEALOUS *hides from everyone* sorry.... i need to add the tadamu spice to it... gomen minna~!
