Heyy,, Sorry it's taken me soooooooo long to update this story. My world has been filled with illness and writers block =/ A great combination (y)

I have decided that i'm going to place all my energy on this story and leave my other story for a while. Sorry to those who enjoyed it, I just can't find any inspiration with it for the time being. =/

I Do NOT own Shugo Chara or the songs used in this story.

Thank you alll so much for Favouriting / Alerting / Reading / Reviewing my stories. You have no idea how happy it makes me to open my e-mail and see that little fanfitction message. ^^

You guys are my inspiration and motivation. If it ever takes me this long give me a good talking to and a swift kick up the butt.

I hope you all enjoy it. Please R&R ^^

Btw does anyone else wish they stuck to the manga? I mean i was all excited waiting for the text messages and him telling her he loved her. There's one good thing about it,, it may mean we get to see MORE Ikuto due to the fact it hasn't said he's swanning off in some distant land.

And another little rant - Shugo Chara Party... Really? I'm not saying I hate it i'm just saying,, why fix something that isn't broke if you get my drift?

Anyway Heres the story Thank you for reading my little rant ^^ please tell me your view on it. Love you all FrankiiCesca x

Chapter 4

"You know what Ikuto; you are the most stupid person I have ever met."

"You do realise you are somewhat me Yoru, don't you?"

"I highly doubt that, I mean if that was true I would NEVER go against what Utau said. You know how she can get."

"Good point."

"Tell me just why exactly you had to go and see her."

"I listened to THAT playlist again."

"I thought you deleted it when you left."

"I could never delete that, every time I went to do so, I saw her face and couldn't."

Yoru looked at his companion and for a split second saw the pain he was going through spread across his face.

"Fine, I'll let you off the hook this time, but I won't next time-Nya"

"I don't know what you're complaining about. You got to see your precious Miki."

Yoru blushed scarlet in remembering this quick kiss. "I haven't a clue what you are on about."

"Of course not, I don't know what I was thinking." With those words Ikuto places the headphones back on his head and pressed play. He didn't know when he became a masochist, but it was too tempting for him not to think about her. He resumed listening to the forbidden playlist. The playlist that contained not only Amu's favourite songs but song they had listened to together, songs he'd heard her singing and song that just made him think of her or the way he felt about her. The current track was especially true about how Amu had affected his life.

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with every day
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Ikuto continued to walk towards his school, head bowed. To the public who occasionally glanced at him he looked like any other teen miserable from having to go to school, in his own little world probably worried about something like a test or forgetting to do some homework. But the truth was he walked this way to stop passer-by seeing the silent betraying tears of heart-ache and self disappointment that rolled down his face. Tears that showed that all he wanted and cared for in his life was her.

Amu turned on her music player as to ignore her 4 Shugo Chara's meaningless squabble. She had heard their argument over and over again so many times that she could recite exactly how it would go. Miki and Ran would start it, then Su would get involved as she tried to put a stop to the matter at hand, after a while when Dia got bored she would jump in with wise words that left the others thinking over her words and then the argument would cease.

Amu hoped for some mind-numbing song that would not only drown out the sound of the squabble but also take her mind off the disappointment that she had experienced not only last night but this morning and to distract her from the whole missing letter issue. Unfortunately for Amu the universe hated her this morning. One of the many songs she wished would be wiped off the face of the planet started to play. Amu knew her mind very well, she knew that if she didn't listen to it now and get the torment over then the song she least wanted to hear at the moment would continue to badger her all day by repeating the lyrics she least wanted to hear go round and round in her head.

As soon as the introduction played through its first phrase she knew this was going to hurt.

I probably shouldn't say this
But at times I get so scared
When I think about the previous
Relationship we shared

It was awesome but we lost it
It's not possible for me not to care
And now we're standing in the rain
But nothing's ever gonna change
Until you hear, my dear

The 7 things I hate about you!
The 7 things I hate about you, oh you
You're vain, your games, you're insecure
You love me, you like her
You make me laugh, you make me cry
I don't know which side to buy

Your friends, they're jerks
When you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

It's awkward and silent
As I wait for you to say
What I need to hear now
Your sincere apology

When you mean it, I'll believe it
If you text it, I'll delete it
Let's be clear
Oh, I'm not coming back
You're taking 7 steps here

The 7 things I hate about you!
You're vain, your games, you're insecure
You love me, you like her
You make me laugh, you make me cry
I don't know which side to buy

Your friends, they're jerks
When you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

And compared to all the great things
That would take too long to write
I probably should mention the 7 that I like

The 7 things I like about you!
Your hair, your eyes, your old Levi's
When we kiss I'm hypnotized
You make me laugh, you make me cry
But I guess that's both I'll have to buy

Your hands in mine
When we're intertwined, everything's alright
I wanna be with the one I know
And the 7th thing I like most that you do
You make me love you, you do

The reason she couldn't listen to this song anymore was the fact that she had to admit to herself that every single line of this song was what her heart screamed as soon as she heard the name Ikuto Tsukiyomi. She knew that even though he hurt her so bad, nothing he could do would make her stop being in love with him. To her it didn't matter however long he was away, the fact that whenever she texted him he would never reply, and also if he never thought about her, she would always love him.

She ambled through the crowded streets towards her school head down. To passer-by she looked like any other teen miserable about the fact they had to get up and go to school. What they would never know is the true reason her head was down was to hide the tears that flowed silently down her cheeks. The tears that portrayed the hopelessness her wishing for his to return. The tears that showed what she really wanted for her birthday. The tears that showed she wanted him.
