Chapter 11 - Nanami

Ayame's POV

Later that day...

I called Nanami, my best friend from my old school, after the fight with Nina and turning into Moon Fairy. I told her everything that's happened so far. " I wish you were here, " I said sadly.

" Maybe, just maybe, your wish will come true, " Nanami said, giggling. I was confused.

" What is it? Why are you giggling? "

" It's a surprise. See ya! " And with that, she hung up. I was too curious! I just HAD to figure out what she was up to.

Oh well, I thought. Maybe tomorrow... And I fell asleep.

I was awakened by my ringing alarm clock. I rolled over and groaned. " School. "

I didn't want Mom to wake me up, so I forced myself to get up, brush my teeth and get dressed without my mom telling ( or rather YELLING ) me to do so. Mom was happy to see me up by myself, and she told me she had a surprise for me.

" What is it, what is it? " I asked over and over again.

" You'll see, " was all Mom could say as she led me to the extra rooms in our new house. We had saved it for guests who wanted to stay overnight, but...

" AYAME! " A familiar voice yelled happily as she opened the door. I couldn't believe it!

" NANAMI! " We both hugged each other.

" My family's going to be living here with you! Isn't that exciting? " she squealed. I was shocked, and we both started jumping around. " And best of all, I'm going to your school! " I was so happy! I thanked my mom and Nanami's parents for arranging this. Then, a Shugo Chara egg with a paintbrush and paint appeared.

" Tessa! " My Charas cried in delight. She popped out happily and hugged them. Tessa looked just like an artist - yet slightly like Nanami. No one had ever seen a happier sight than reunited friends.

" Oh! We're going to be late! " Nanami and I rushed to the table and each stuffed a pancake in our mouths as we ran out the door with our Charas and bookbags.

" I can't believe this! " I exclaimed. Then I remembered she hadn't seen Luna yet, so I showed her.

" She's so cute! " Nanami pinched her cheeks.

Luna sweatdropped. " I don't really take cute as a compliment.. "

Then we arrived at school. Nanami was the new ' cool and cutie ', according to everyone else. Of course, Nanami started signing ' autographs ', even though she didn't even know how to sign. Every boy fell in love with her, of course. That was the ways of this school, after all.

Nanami was in the same class as me, and this is how she introduced herself : " Hi! I'm Akamine Nanami! I really want to be an artist when I grow up, so please don't mind me if I'm always drawing. I love having friends, so let's get along, okay? " She finished it off with a wink. The class clapped.

" Akamine-san, you can sit next to Ayame over there, " Nikaidou-sensei said as he pointed to me.

" No worries, " Nanami smiled. " We already know each other. "
