CHAPTER 2.

The next morning was even more hectic! School was over, but I had a part-time job, and I was already late!

I threw on some jeans, and a dark blue T-Shirt.

I ran out my door saying a quick goodbye to Ami and Mom. Dad was at work.

I sprinted from my door, trying to get to work as fast as I could.

Aruto...and Ikuto are here?! I thought. I can't believe it! What if I see them together today? What'll I say? GAH!! So confusing!

Suddenly, I fell on the ground. I rubbed my head. "Ouch..." I Then looked up. A tall familiar boy was standing there, with a happy smirk on his face. I immediatly knew who he was. "Ikuto! Uh..um..I mean...what're you doing here? I thought you were gone somewhere looking for your father..."

Ikuto laughed. "Now now. You and I both know you are happy to see me! Stop with that boldness."

I blushed. "Maybe you think I am. But I was perfectly fine! So did you find your dad?"

"Yea. Turns out he was looking for me the whole time, too." Ikuto explained. "I finally caught up with him yesterday."

"O-oh." I studdered. "I..I saw him. At least I think it was him. He uhh...c-came into my room...along with Yoru..."

"He went into your room?!" He yelled. A hint of protection in his voice. "That bastard! I'll kill him!"

"I-Ikuto! You're not killing anyone!" I yelled back. "All he did was introduce himself. He also told me that I was bold...and...other things..."

"Other things?" He echoed. "Like what other things?"

"Um. He...kissed my hand..." I confessed lightly, really hoping he didn't hear it.

"WHAT?!" He screamed. Well, I failed...

"N-no! Don't worry about it!" I assured.

Ikuto pulled me into a hug. "Amu...you're the only one I want to hand-kiss. Not my father. He will not ever touch you again! Not while i'm around! Okay?"

I pulled out of his grip. "I-I have to go. B-bye Ikuto....Uh..nice seeing you again..." I blushed. He was so warm. His grip was gentle...like hugging a kitten. Huh..pretty ironic...

"Amu!" He yelled. "Are you okay?" He touched his forehead to mine. "Hm. You're hot."

"Perv." I mummbled.

"No, Amu! You silly dense girl! You're burning up! Did you feel good this morning?" He asked seriously.

I suddenly coughed, and felt faint..."I..I'm...fine...." I drifted. I think I just fainted in Ikuto's arms. Either I was blushing, or my face was just red from the fever I might have...

Rella: So how was it? Amu?

Amu: Why'd you make me so dense?

Rella: Well..cuz...etto...you are?

Ikuto: True True...

Amu: Ikuto i'm sick! I don't need this!

Rella: What ev's!

Ikuto: And, Rella, why do you just assume that my dad's a pervert?

Rella: Well...isn't he?

Ikuto: So....

Rella: So my assumption is right?

Amu: What's an assumption?

Rella & Ikuto: Really, Amu? Really? You're really that dumb?

Amu: I'm Not Dumb!!!

Rella: Gomen Gomen! Anyways readers...
