Ikuto: YAYYYYY!!!!!

Amu: Oh nooo!!!!

Utau: HAH! Amu, Ikuto is mine!!! (takes Ikuto)

Amu: I-Ikuto! (grabs him back) Don't just force people like that!

Melissa: Ooh!!

Ikuto: Heheh. I like how girls fight over me.

Ran: Also, since we shugo charas haven't been mentioned that much since we aren't important for the moment….(-_-). We will appear more!

Melissa: Yup! So yea. I do not own Shugo Chara or it's fellow characters!

Chapter 4: Realizations

Amu frequently tried to push him away, but then decided not to. But then she finally pushed him away. "S-stop!" She muttured, covering her mouth and her blushing face covered. She saw the tip of his long, purple hair.

Then, she heard him laugh like crazy. Then, she immediately took her arm down and glared at Nagehiko. His expression had softened. Nagehiko wiped the tears from laughing from his eyes. "Sorry, your reaction was hilarious," he explained, grinning. "I just wanted to see your reaction. Please do not think I am rude." He said, his hands curled around hers.

Amu sighed and crossed her arms. "Fine," she laughed. Then, she looked up at the greenhouse window above.

Then, her eyes widened as she saw the tip of a blue tail for a few seconds. "I-Ikuto saw.." she whispered, and then she grabbed her bag. "A-Amu!" Tadase called, his eyes worried as he was holding a large golden envelope.

"I'm leaving early!" she called, and ran out the door. Her eyes searched for anything that had a blue tail and piercing blue eyes. She kept on darting from everywhere, even if the branches and the leaves pricked her sometimes.

She looked down at the ground when she didn't find him. How come I can't find him? Ikuto…where are you? She asked in her mind, looking at the blue sky.

Suddenly, warm tears came out of her eyes without knowing. "How come I'm crying?" she laughed. She wiped her tears away the fastest she could, and then she forced a mischievous smile. She ran from the forests and to Ikuto's car.

She waved her hand and called happily, "Ikuto!"

She automatically stopped. Ikuto glared at her as he unlocked the car. She was pushed inside the car. The drive was very silent. She frequently glanced at Ikuto, though he kept his hard eyes on the road.

"You..saw." She guessed, though it wasn't really one. Suddenly, he looked at her, his expression still hard. "Yes." He snapped, his voice raw. "It was just a joke." she reasoned, her hands firm on the hand rests. He stared at her. "Really? So he just used you?" He hissed, now angrier than before. "N-no!" She insisted, closing her eyes. She heard him sigh. "Ok." He still spoke with fury.

Ikuto's POV

His teeth clenched at the thought of Utau. "I'll be near your house soon!" Before he could protest, she hung up. "You're still angry." She stated. It wasn't a question. "You'll see," He whispered, and from the corners of his eyes he saw her roll her eyes, though in her eyes there was a hint of curiosity.

When they arrived, Ikuto stared at Amu the whole time when she put her bag on the couch. Then without thinking, he asked, "Amu, can I kiss you?"

His eyes slightly widened though he didn't cover his mouth. Though, his cheeks had a slight pink on them. Amu's eyes widened. "I thought you didn't need my permission."

Ikuto automatically reacted to that word and started smirking and walking towards her.

Amu was quick in reacting too, and quickly started another sentence.

"THOUGH, I do not mean you can kiss me now because you have my permission, though…I'll let you kiss me because…I kissed Nagehiko..so it is my punishment," she planned, looking at the floor.

Ikuto smiled. "Amu," he murmured, lifted her chin. Then, he softly put his lips upon hers.

He pinned her onto the wall and made the kiss deeper since he was enjoying the feel of her sweet lips. She whimpered a little, though she didn't do any kind of action against him, since it would probably be part of the "punishment." His lips moved against hers in a rhythm, until they were both breathless.

Amu's cheeks were enjoyably the deepest shade of red he ever seen. "T-that is the only time you can do that!" She squealed, and locked herself in her room.

Amu's POV

She held her arms over her chest. She actually felt like she liked that kiss, and at the same time she didn't.

She quickly shook her head. Then, he head rose when she heard Ikuto's voice.

"Amu, did you actually like that kiss?" He sneered.

Then her eyes darkened. Of course. He was always his perverted self. "No, Ikuto." She snapped.

"Huh, I didn't even think that our kiss wouldn't be that active," he sneered yet again. She sighed. He had clearly got his act together. "Hah! To think that you were even nice for once-"

"Oh so you think I was nice?"

Amu's teeth clenched and she pounded her fist hard on the door. "OWW!" Ikuto moaned. She rammed the door open and went out the front door. She sighed. "I'm taking a walk!" She yelled, and slammed the door hard behind her.

She had her eyes locked on the street in front of her and her hands were clenched. She was frustrated, but this time not because of Ikuto.

Because of this feeling. This feeling that continually controlled her mind and thoughts. Though, what was it?

Then, she heard a loud voice. "You're Amu, aren't you?" She called. Amu whipped around and saw a stunning girl with long blond hair with pigtails, and her index finger was pointed at Amu. She had piercing violet eyes.

Her expression hardened once she saw Amu's face. "So you're the one who my agents say has been hanging around with Ikuto!" She snapped, and stomped to Amu.
Then, her horrific aura was outstanding as she whispered into her ear, "If you make one move to Ikuto, you have no idea what I can do to you. Because he is mine."

Amu whirled around and shook her finger. "N-no! There is absolutely nothing between me and Ikuto!" She explained.

She laughed bitterly. "Like I'll believe that!" She sneered. "Utau, stop." A hard voice yelled, and then Amu realized that Ikuto was behind her. "I-Ikuto!" She exclaimed.

Utau's expression immediately softened and was surprised. "Ikuto!"

"Utau, stop it. You know I do not accept your feelings. Can't you stop? We are siblings." He insisted. Amu's eyes widened. Siblings?!?!

Utau sighed. "Fine. I'll stop…for now." She snapped, and ran back the opposite way we came from. "W-what was.." Amu murmured. Ikuto sighed and grinned at her. "My crazy sister that is in love with me." he sighed.

The Next Day

"Ikuto!" Utau begged. Amu was hiding behind the hall door way. "Why am I doing this?" she whispered to herself.

"Please, accept my feelings!" She begged. Ikuto shook his head. "Amu is living with me because of reasons. You have to understand that." He said sternly. Utau suddenly had tears come from her eyes.

Then, she pushed Ikuto onto the floor and she pounded her fists on his chest. "Baka, Baka Baka! Ikuto your such a baka!" She cried. "O-oi! Utau, that hurts.." Ikuto complained.

Then, she suddenly placed his lips upon hers.

"A-Amu!" Ran, Miki, and Suu whispered. Amu's eyes gaped at the scene, and she tiptoed back to her room.

She ruffled her hand through her hair. She had a weird feeling going through her stomach. It was painful, and she tensed more. "What is this?" She demanded herself.

Though, she didn't know. Or she didn't want to admit it. Then, her phone vibrated. She sighed and tried to make her voice normal.

She flipped open her phone. "Hello?" She asked. "Yes, Amu?" She heard. "T-Tadase?" She said, surprised. "I have some baked cookies at home. I was worried about you, so I hope cookies will cheer you up," He murmured, a hint of shyness in his voice.

Amu smiled and blushed. "I'll be there."

"Great! See you."

Amu flipped closed her phone and pushed the door open. She had her eyes closed in annoyance even though Utau wasn't there. "I'm going to Tadase's house for a meeting!" She half lied, and shut the door before he could protest.

Ikuto's POV

Ikuto's eyes widened. She was going to kiddy king's house? That was unacceptable. He kept on debating whether or not he should follow her. "No, I'm too much of a stalker!" He snarled at himself, though he decided to go anyways. "Yoru, Chara Change!" He muttered, and instantly he leaped into a tree in front of Tadase's house.

He shoved some leaves away so at least he can see what was going on.

Then, he saw, that pest, hug Amu. His eyes widened. He immediately hopped from the tree and walked on the farthest street away.

There was a swirling feeling in his stomach, filled with pain and sadness. Even though it was just a hug, a hug from that kiddy king hurted him. Tadase had angered him in so many ways.

He stopped at the fence, exhausted. Now he knew the ranting feeling he had felt for Amu in the past days besides the disruptions.

He was in love with her, the girl who would keep on surprising him no matter what she did, the one and only, Amu.

Amu's POV

Amu sighed as she walked home from the streets. She checked every street, though it was clear that she was lost. "Man, if only I had a car!" She complained.

She suddenly was inside a frightening part of a street. "U-um..scary desu.." Suu said to herself, and Ran, Mikki, and Suu hopped into their eggs.

Amu glared at them, on how pathetic their behavior was. Then, she saw a big guy snickering at her. "U-um.." she spoke politely, but suddenly she was knocked into the wall.

"S-Stop!" She yelled. Though, he unzipped her jacket and threw it onto the street and started feeling her.

"NO!" She kept on yelling, and he unbuttoned her shirt. He pressed his lips against her neck and hit it roughly with it. "STOP!" She yelled. It felt like a huge boulder was ontop of her, and a boulder that could seduce her any minute now.

Then, suddenly, the crushing weight was gone. She fixed herself, and opened her eyes wide. "I-Ikuto!" She shouted.

He was in the middle of a fight with the guy. He punched him in the face and anywhere possible, his eyes filled with rage. "DON'T! DON'T YOU DARE EVER HURT MY AMU AGAIN!" He shouted, and punched him one last time.

Amu hugged her shirt and picked up her jacked. "I-Ikuto!" She repeated his name, dazed. He said "my Amu." She blushed at the thought. "Hold onto my neck." He snarled. Amu hesitated, but she wrapped her arms around his neck. Suddenly, he hopped on top of a building and hopped from each. The wind blew against Amu's face. She glanced at his eyes. His eyes were still angry, though he had a new feeling in it.

Though, she didn't know exactly what that was. Then, they finally got home.

Ikuto immediately brought Amu into a close embrace, as she dropped her bag. He wrapped his arms more tightly around her back. "Are you alright?" His voice shook. She nodded. "T-thank you, Ikuto." She whispered, and wrapped her arms around his back.

"I'm sorry," He whispered. She immediately pulled back and stared into his surprised eyes. "You shouldn't be sorry." She protested. "Ok then," He added hungrily, and pulled her into an embrace again.

Amu sighed. They stayed like that for a while. She didn't know exactly what to do. Apparently, he hadn't known either. They didn't know what do react, either to let go or move. Though, they didn't want to. Somehow Amu didn't want to get away from his warmth. She was too comfortable to do so.

Amu debated in her mind to think what she should so in order to show her thanks. Amu started to pull away unwillingly, though he pulled her closer. Amu sighed, and she blushed a little more.

Ikuto's hand played with her hair. Then, she looked up at him, blushed, and pressed her lips softly on her cheek.

When she saw his surprised face, she shook her head in embarrassment and fumed, "That was my thanks," She sniffed.

Ikuto smiled, though for the first time, it was the first angelic, loving smile she had ever seen. Wait, loving?

"I-I'm going to my room now!" She panicked, and ran into her room.

Ikuto's POV

He still stood there, shocked, as he lingered his fingers over the spot where Amu had kissed him. He smiled, and he liked the feeling. He wanted her to kiss him a million times even though it was on the cheek. He sighed. Though, she would never feel that way about him. Though, it wasn't impossible.

Then, he finally decided. He knew he had to try to leave Amu the impression that he was a good guy, not just a perverted lecher. It was enough. Her love, though, was the most he wished.

Amu's POV

Amu flopped on her bed and she was still blushing madly. How come she did that? Though, she didn't feel guilty.

She rolled around under her bed covers, and then finally realized.

The reason her feelings were pleasant because…

She actually liked him.

Melissa: Heh! They both realized their feelings for eachother!

Ikuto: (sighs) Amu still hasn't fully realized it.

Amu: What does it matter?

Yoru: Hope you enjoyed~nya!
