Gosu: I have edited this chapter to make it fit my storyline more. Sorry but next chapter is not going to be a lemon as I've decided that two lemons is enough. Again, apologies if it disappoints you. Thank you to everyone who review and to Setsuki Angel Princess for your criticism, which is much appreciated! Thanks for waking me up there. Without further ado, enjoy!

Chapter 5: True Motives Revealed

(Ikuto's POV)

It was past dawn when I woke up. I turned to the side to see the naked beauty before me, sleeping soundlessly. I stared at her, taking a mental picture of her while I thought of my next move. I was caught up in my thoughts that I didn't realize my cellphone was vibrating, playing a "Black Diamond" ringtone, which was very familiar. 'Utau. What does she want from me?' I slid out of bed, careful not to wake up Amu, and went outside to the balcony and shut the door quietly. I discarded my human disguise for a moment and answered her call.

"What do you want, Utau?"

"Hmph. Still giving me the cold shoulder, Ikuto? You should be more kind, y'know."

"Just get to the point."

"Fine. Our Lord knows you still haven't taken her soul yet. "

"I will have her soul before time's up."

"That's not the point. The annual death anniversary party is today. I'm sure you know exactly what that means."

"Which means I have to bring Amu down there to celebrate it."

"That's not going to be easy, considering that she still believes you're a human when you're really a shinigami."

"She'll know sooner or later that I'm not a human, but a shinigami."

"See you tonight, Ikuto."

I hung up and slid the phone back into my pocket. I walked back into the bedroom to wake up Amu for tonight's party in the Underworld. I hated my disguise, pretending to be a human is disgusting with all those fake emotions, it'd be much easier if I could take her soul already. I'm not known to be patient with my missions.

"Wake up now, Amu-koi."

I bit back the disgust in my voice. 'Still asleep? You won't be for long.' I smirked, walking to the washroom and coming back with a bucket full of water. On the silent count to three, I dumped the water onto the bed, splashing her from head to toe. When she woke up, she didn't seem too happy. My infamous smirk was on my face now, as she stood there shivering from the impact, glaring daggers at me while her teeth chattered. 'This is just too amusing.' I held back a laugh.

(Amu's POV)

I glared daggers at him, 'That stupid Ikuto!' I pointed my finger at him and demanded in gritted teeth,

"You! You darn perverted cat! Couldn't you have woken me up with something else?"

I could see he tried to look innocent, but failed miserably in the attempt.

"What? It was the only way to wake you up. Unless, you wanted me to arouse you?"

'He just had to make me blush ten thousand shades of red. Damn that pervert!'

"W-what are you t-talking about!?"

He walked closer, each step forwards as I stepped backwards every other step. Then I heard a 'thud' and realized too late that both my hands were pinned to the wall above my head. His mischievous smirk was on his face again. He leaned forward to my face, inching closer to my lips. By the time his lips were just centimeters away from mine, my face was blushing like mad.

(Ikuto's POV)

Amu's blushing again. I find her reactions amusing, teasing her all the time makes it more interesting.

"Pfft. You're just too fun to tease!"

She looked away in embarrassment, when she returned to her normal self, she was in facade mode and she looked angrier than I've ever seen.

"Hmph. Whatever. So why did you wake me up for?" she demanded.

"There's a party tonight that I have to attend. You're to come as well." I replied dryly.

"Guess there's no way out of it, huh?"

Was there a hint of excitement in her voice? I laughed quietly as I walked out the door, stopping to reply.

"Nope. Just look nice. I'll be waiting for you outside."

"Whatever."

I smirked at her before I left the room, closing the door behind me. My cellphone was buzzing again, I pulled it out and answered it. Someone on the other line spoke, the voice was familiar.

" Yo! How's it going with Hinamori?"

Sigh, it was none other than that soccer player freak, Souma Kukai, Utau's boyfriend.

"What do you want?"

" Nothing much. Just that Utau wanted me to wait for you and the human once you get here."

"Don't bother lying. That is unlike Utau. "

" Alright. You win. Looks to me like He wants to see Hinamori for himself, seeing as you haven't killed her yet."

"He wants to test me. I will have to kill her in front of everyone."

" Well that's that. See you later than, Ikuto."

I slid the phone back into my pocket. Then, with a snap of my fingers, I switched from my disguise to my true form. I was elegantly dressed in a tight white dress shirt, that was loose at the waist, and a loose black bow tie hanging around the collar with my black silver cross necklace underneath; matched with skinny black dress pants. The pants were strapped around the legs with small belt buckles, as a studded belt was tied securely around the pants' loopholes. (A/N: See picture in profile, the belt buckle straps are kinda like the ones he wears on his school uniform)

I grabbed my violin case and waited for Amu. My violin was a keepsake of my father's and when I died as a human, it came with me, thus becoming my weapon to capture souls with. I knew perfectly well that Amu was going to die.

Gosu: I hope this version was better than the last one. I admit, I didn't put much effort into the old version but I believe this one's better and fits my plot more. I hope you'll all forgive me. Don't forget to R&R and some constructive criticism!
