Me:: Look people I'm not a miracle worker and I do have other things I need to do
Ikuto:: Are you PMS'ing?
Amu:: IKUTO! How can you even ask that?!
Ikuto:: *shrugs shoulders* Easy… Are you PMS'ing?
Me:: *glares* No! I need someone to give me a lyric to work with? Something that has a dash of jealousy in it!!!!!!
Ikuto & Amu:: …. *worried*
Me:: ….. *brain-dead*
Nagihiko:: *walks in* Maybe I should do the honors – Csi-chan doesn't own Shugo Chara though wishes she did.

Ikuto's P.O.V.:
Sighing again for the ump-tenth time during Nikaido-sensei's lecture of what is to be expected of us at the upcoming dance. It had only been a month since I started coming back to class and Amu came back, I already had the urge to skip class and sleep in a tree all day.
"…As for final words I say this, behave because we teachers gave you these opportunities we can take them away! And I would like each of you to know that we, teachers may be the ones hosting these dances but I do recommend each of you to try and show up." His stern statement broke through my thoughts.
My eyes travelled over to the strawberry sitting next to me; we haven't really talked much since I had dinner at her house. I sighed inwardly; did I do something wrong?
My thoughts were interrupted when the bell rung, dismissing us from class; I stood up tapping Amu's shoulder of course I wasn't expecting her reaction… at all…
Amu's P.O.V.:
My mind refused to focus at all as it kept drifting to when Ikuto came over my house to eat dinner; mainly what had happened in my bedroom. Why do I feel so comfortable around him? Does it have anything to do with that picture I have…?
Completely in-tuned with my own thoughts the feeling of someone tapping my shoulder made me jump right off my seat; I closed my eyes awaiting the soon-to-come pain on my butt where I knew I'd land… Nothing… I slid one eye opened but what I saw holding onto my arm made my other eye fly open: Ikuto was gripping my arm! His bag had already fallen to the floor; he pulled me up a little so I could stand on my own.
"T-thanks I-Ikuto…" I rushed out of the classroom, pulling out the note I had found in my desk earlier today.
Ikuto's P.O.V.:
After I just saved her from falling, she's off again… Dammit! Why can't I do anything right? Why is it always the same outcome?! Is this my own personal curse…?
I stuffed my hands in my blazer, feeling an odd sense of relief that things were like they were before she left and lost her memory. All those memories of sneaking into my room after a boy broke her heart… When her parents were arguing… Whenever she was lonely when no one else was home… Everything we did as little kids is gone…
"Ikuto!!!!!!!!" Kukai's voice of all things snapped me back to reality.
"What?" My voice, no matter how hard I tried, couldn't hide the obvious irritation in it.
"Whoa… Calm down…" He waved his hands in front of his face in defense.
I sighed; "Nagi wanted me to tell you something…" He added with a more serious expression on his face.
"Which would be what, exactly?" I, still a little irritated, asked.
"He heard a rumor that someone was going to ask Hinamori-san out." He explained, eyeing me as if waiting for me to react.
And he got what he was waiting for: "Wait! What?!" I almost yelled.
Click!
"I-I mean…. Why do I care?" I looked away, trying to hide any proof of my feelings towards Amu.
"Don't play stupid! We all know you're in love with Hinamori-san!" He shoved a thumbs-up right in my face.
"It doesn't matter… She's never going to return my feelings." I grumbled, pushing past Kukai.
"Nagi said that many of the rumors said that Tadase was going to ask her." I heard him add, as if just remembering some important detail.
I froze in my tracks; T-Tadase… The kiddy king…
I ran off, searching the campus grounds but after a couple hours of searching for her; why am I even looking for her?!
I was completely out of breath as I slumped against one of the tall pillars and almost complained until I heard voices coming closer.
"…-chan, is it okay if I call that?" Tadase…
A scowl appeared on my face but began to disappear as the next voice spoke: "A-ah! Y-yes! I-it's f-fine…" Amu…
A soft, sad sigh passed by my lips as it sank in that me and Amu will never be anything more than friends. I stood up slowly before walking off quietly, making sure I didn't interrupt their conversation.
I was sitting in front of my computer when I noticed Amu out of the corner of my eye; she was closing her bedroom door.
"Hey! You okay?" I asked her, still a little worried about her earlier actions.
She jumped a little before leaning out the window with a small smile on her face; "I'm alright… Sorry about earlier I was just spaced out."
What on earth had her in such deep thought that one tap made her jump so much??
"You rushed away so quickly I forgot to let you know that your mom told me to let you that if you need anything, just let me know." I repeated the message that Ms. Hinamori had given me a couple days ago.
"Oh! Okay! Thanks~" She smiled; crap! There's that smile of hers!
"Oh! Yeah, the weirdest thing happened to me today…" She trailed off for a bit.
What else could have happened? Other than Tada-gay asking you out!!!!
"You know Hotori Tadase from Class 3-C… He asked me out after school—"
"Hn. So did you say 'yes'?" I hadn't meant to add that last part, mainly because I was afraid of the answer.
Silence. I glanced up to see Amu staring at me and, was that surprise in her eyes? Whatever it was, it disappeared quickly as she responded: "Uh hun."
"She belongs in fairytales that I will never be."
