Doesn't it suck how sometimes an innocent kiss can turn into something else?

Nah, I'm just kidding, it wasn't that bad.

Amu squeaked when my lips touched hers, but she melted into it and wrapped her arms around my neck. Ha. I win. I hold onto her waist gently, scared she might break.

At the same time, I hear a loud thump. We pull away and I can't help but laugh at the sight in front of me.

Amu's sister has glittery eyes and is staring at us like we're a TV show. Her mom is trying to look disapproving but the corners of her mouth are slightly upturned. And it's strange how they're not paying attention to the guy who's passed out on the floor.

I stare at him, snickering, until Amu's mom turns around and laughs. He could be dead, but we're just sitting here laughing. My strawberry's mom eventually goes over and picks him up bridal style without any trouble. Huh. Strength must run in the family. (AN: I'm thinking of the episode where Tadase comes over and Amu throws Ikuto in the closet.)

"Come on Ami," she calls as she carries her husband up the steps. "You need to brush your teeth and go to bed." She turns around and winks at me. I smile back. She'll make a great mother-in-law.

"Ok!" the little girl shouts, saluting before running up the steps. I laugh and I can hear the soft sound of Amu's laughter. It's so beautiful.

We don't say anything for a few minutes. I decide to break the awkward-ness. "So, I bet you're pretty mad at me, huh?"

I glance over at her and see a faint blush. But I'm surprised because she looks up at me, grinning, and says, "Nah, not really. Just a little annoyed."

I'm speechless. I mean, I didn't want her to be mad at me but if I can just steal her first kiss like that…

I gaze into her eyes as if I'm in some sappy romance novel. She stares back before we burst out laughing. I think I'm slaphappy or something. Who's the idiot writing this, anyways?

But I try to enjoy the moment. I'll worry about being in character tomorrow.

She's still laughing, with fat tears rolling down her face, by the time I stop. I take the opportunity to pull her close and press my lips to her forehead before saying, "Well, see ya."

I turn and head to the door. I'm twisting the knob when I feel her lace her finger through my free hand. I turn, surprised, and feel her lips on my cheek. "Thank you, Ikuto," she whispers before letting go.

XOXOXO

Yesterday was a long day.

As soon as I got home (around 11:30), Utau hugged me and planted a kiss dangerously close to my lips. I pulled her off, causing her to pout idiotically, and practically dragged myself to bed. No way am I writing numbers 2 and 3 right now.

Ah. My bed was so soft after a long day.

Waking up is a different story. Utau sings me awake around 11 and drags me to the shower. She asks if she can wash my back before I frantically shove her out the door and lock it. That really woke me up.

Once I'm clean, groomed, and fed, I set out. Today's a school day, right? I check my phone. Yupp. Perfect. And it's only noon, so I have plenty of time to put my plan together.

"Hi, is this Tamaki Limo Rentals? Yes, I'd like to rent one of your flashiest limos for today…"

XOXOXO

So by 3:30 I'm sitting outside of Seiyo Academy or Elementary or whatever it's called in a pure white limo. I'm in the back and a chauffer's in the driver's seat.

Sometimes it's awesome having a rich sister that's obsessed with you.

I adjust my tie and look down at my outfit. I look awesome – a tux and sunglasses. I have to say this is my most creative idea yet.

4. Pick her up in style.

I see kids streaming out of the building and grin. Some are pointing at me, others staring in awe. A redhead seems to be walking towards me. I hope she doesn't try to get in.

"…must be for me…" I hear as she grows near. Aw, hell na.

"Driver, make sure nobody but Amu and I enter this car."

He nods and I push the door open. Some of the girls swoon and the redhead gets hearts in her eyes. I go over to her and say in a smooth voice, "Excuse me, but you wouldn't happen to know where I can find Miss Amu Hinamori?"

I swear I see steam coming out of her ears. At that exact moment, a flash of pink hair catches my eye. I turn and see Amu laughing with a short blond girl and a girly boy with purple hair. Rima and Nejihiko, I think.

I ignore the redhead and strut towards Amu. I lower my shades and wink. She blushes and squeals of "Cool and Spicy!" can be heard.

"W-What do you want, I-Ikuto?" she stutters.

"That's no way to treat someone like me. And you should be happy. I came to pick you up." I glance at her companions. "Rima and Nejihiko, right? I think I'll be taking her."

Nejihiko scowls. "It's Nagihiko." Whoops. "But whatever. Go ahead."

Rima giggles and nods. "Ok, Amu," I say, grabbing her wrist and pulling her towards the limo. "Let's go."

As we walk away, I can hear Rima snicker and say, "Nejihiko. I think I'll call you that from now on."

"Wait, wait, wait. You're picking me up in that?" she asks, pointing at the limo.

"Yupp."

She groans but doesn't protest. I can hear girls asking each other "Is that her boyfriend? If he is, she's so lucky!"

I grin as I open the door for her, always a gentleman, and slide in after her. She looks around in wonder. She smiles at me softly and whispers "Thanks. You're annoying, but you certainly do know how to make things special."

I smirk and grab her hand. "Oh, really?" I ask her in a seductive voice. She squeals and blushes, turning to stare out the tinted window.

Not once on the ride to her house does she pull her hand away.

This chapter was done for my sister. She wanted the limo idea and kept bugging me about it. You guys should thank her for making me write this story xD

Sorry to anyone who thought the kiss was unromantic. Sorry for any mistakes in this chapter. Feel free to correct any! And OOC-ness. =_= I'm too tired to be doing this… That's why it's so short.

PLEASE VOTE ON MY POLL! It's on my profile and I'm too lazy to explain it here. It's blind because I like surprises.

Thanks for all the reviews! They inspire me when I have bad days!

Thanks for reading! Please review!
