Tap.
Tap. Tap.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
I flipped the page and scanned the page. I still hadn't soaked any of this into my brain. How the hell was I supposed to learn all these diagrams and arrows that looked like some sort of coded map the CIA would use? And that incessant tapping was getting on my nerves...but never mind that Amu, you need to get your work -
"Stop that," I hissed looking up at the azure-eyed male next to me. The only reason I invited him along - no, wait - the only reason he was here was because he invited himself along, much to my distaste. So here we are, outside on the lovely picnic tables that have melted snow on one side yet dry wood on the other. Ahh, it's refreshing don't you think?
I returned to my work. What the hell did THAT arrow mean? And why did that word look like a noodle? Maybe if I take note here and read there...ah, that makes much more sense. Not. WHAT THE BLOODY FUCK DID THIS MEAN?
"Amu, if you need help..." he advised to himself often. "You just have to ask."
"I don't need help from you thank you very much," I snapped slightly irritated I didn't know what this meant.
"Oka-a-ay," he sounded like he was teasing me.
Hmm...I don't understand. What does that even mean? What's that color mean? Huh? Do I have to look that up? Of course I do, I always do. What page...okay, so it means that but what do I do with it? This means that and that means that but what does that mean? Wait, what? Let me think that again...argh!
I wrote down the terms and underlined the most important ones. I sighed and copied the definitions from the book with a frown. I began the copying the diagrams when the tapping began again. Naturally, I ignored it. Until it became highly irritating. Which, unfortunately didn't take very long.
"Ikuto." I put warning in my tone.
He carelessly continued and even began humming. Humming.
"Be quiet, Ikuto." My hand paused.
He continued.
"This is the last warning," I growled out.
That's when he began to sing. "A soft touch of desire puts my painful heart on fire...drowning in your warmth and beauty everyone admires..."
"Argh!"
I don't understand why I did it. I twisted and tackled him onto the table, scattering my school supplies in a flurry of pencils and papers. I scowled at him intensely and got even more infuriated when he grinned. This idiot...
"I'm at your mercy," he smirked with amusement glinting in his eyes. "Do what you want with me."
I don't know how he can joke when I'm this mad. I mean, come on, he comes here telling me he can help then goes off tapping and singing sexual songs to me. He gets me so riled up sometimes! It just makes me want to hit him or something! And he jokes and laughs...blah! I hate him so much right now! He gets me so mad I can't stand it!
"Just shut up." I snapped annoyed. "I need to study."
"Oh, Amu," he chuckled. "You know you were just barely resisting the temptation to throw yourself on me."
"..."
"Most girls would kill to do what you just pulled off, you know." Was I imagining it or did I head a bit of frustration?
"I'm not like most girls." I grounded out.
"I figured," he sighed. He looked at me for a moment. "Hey, Amu..."
"What?"
He abruptly turned the tables on me. No, I don't mean he flipped the tables we were on and crushed me (jeez, he's not that violent...I hope). I meant he flipped our situation around and now he held me down on the table. I shivered at the feeling of cold snow melting on my back and suddenly wished I wore my winter coat instead of my baggy sweatshirt. I squirmed and wriggled but found myself no more loose than I was about five seconds ago. I narrowed my eyes at him, daring him to move.
And he did. How very, very, VERY unfortunate for me.
"Amu..." he leaned closer. "Can I do this?" His lips met my exposed collarbone. "Or this?" He dragged his lips up to the hollow of my neck. "Or...this?"
I bit my tongue from making a noise when his teeth gently grazed my jawline. He smiled a little and nuzzled near my neck making a content sound. I suddenly felt exposed and definitely vulnerable. (And maybe...maybe...now don't judge me for being a female...a teeny, tiny bit joie de vivre.) I jolted when he licked my ear. What in the robins egg was he doing?
"Amu...why're you so damned different?" He sounded annoyed. "Why can't you just...be like anyone else?"
"Huh...?" Where was this coming from.
"You're so irritating..." he mumbled into my ear. He kissed my neck, gently nipping it here and there. "I hate that you seem so immune."
"What're you saying?" I asked slightly feeling more dreamlike.
"I don't get you," he finally said before he kissed me.
Yep, I can say it with a straight face. You know all casual and like, right? Pfft, I'm a great liar aren't I?
"Amu..." he whispered looking into my eyes. "Amu..."
"Hmm?" I felt warm.
He chuckled and leaned back. "Wake up, sleepyhead."
"Whaaa?" I suddenly sat upright and became alert. "What the heck? Where am I?"
Ikuto laughed beside me. "You literally fell asleep after I started singing. You just went down." he snapped his fingers. "Like that."
I blinked a few times trying to recollect my odd dream. "I fell asleep...? When...why didn't you wake me up?"
"I did!" He defended himself with a pout. "I shook you a few times and even slapped you - no offense - but you were like, dead."
"Oh, gee thanks." I muttered.
I must've been blushing because he was staring at me strangely. I moved my hand to hide myself and continued ignoring him. But I barely focused on my reading as the words slipped across the page. All I could think of was how crazy and realistic that dream was. It felt so real. His touch...his kiss...I shivered. Maybe I was just totally losing my marbles and needed to study less. Yeah, that's it.
[A/N]: Short, I know. But like two people reviewed and made me want to publicize this! And I sorta had no more inspiration for this chapter anyway...it was good though, right? You got a little Amuto sexual tension going on there...me~ow, Ikuto, you feisty kitty-kat. So it was a fantasy dream but hey, I bet you enjoyed it.
I mean, who wouldn't want him getting all hot and heavy on you?
Forever and Always,
