Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for the plot. If anyone came up with this idea before me, which I am 99.9% sure they did, then I don't own the plot fully and it wasn't originally made by me. Oh and I don't own the saying 'don't cry over spilled milk'.
Note to the Readers: Holy shiz, thank you all so much for reading this far. I think this story may have gotten more reviews in a less amount of time, than my most popular story, Forever Mine. That's truly amazing, as for the sequel to that one Our Children, I am trying to update as quickly as possible.
I awake to hear singing, Amu's singing to be precise. Her singing has most definitely improved from the last time I heard her. Then again, she was fairly young when she allowed me to listen. So no doubt about it, her voice would've matured by then.
I walk over to where she is and gently brush my lips against hers, as soon as she notices my presence. Of course I wouldn't scare her. I am kind of shocked of all that happened last night. I never thought she would kiss me. Does that mean she at least likes me again? Or are our feelings mutual, and she loves me just as I do her?
"Morning Ikuto." Amu says with a bright smile. "Morning." I say while returning her smile. "Thanks for letting me sleep with you again, and for not 'doing' anything." She says while blushing. "You're welcome Amu." I say with a faint smirk forming on my face. "Aunt Utau said she's coming back, she called me this morning. She said that most likely she'd be here by twelve, so that's in three hours." She says while glancing briefly at the clock. "Okay." I say while getting my clothes, and getting dressed in the bathroom.
Otherwise, she'd 'cry over spilled milk'. As soon as I finish I walk downstairs and lazily plop myself on the couch. Amu swiftly comes down and plops herself right next to me on the couch.
"So Ikuto, do you want to go somewhere today?" Amu asks me while waiting intently for my answer. "Sure where do you want to go." I say. "How about, the Zoo!" She exclaims with excitement. "Okay." I say plainly, not necessarily meaning I don't want to go, but I am just not as hyper as Amu usually is.
When we arrive at the zoo, we get the tickets for the entrance, and enter. The Zoo is quite crowded.
"Ah Ikuto, let's go to the Panda's!" Amu exclaims excitedly. When we reach the Panda's, I watch with amusement how Amu's face changes quickly.
"Aw! Kawaii! Panda's are my favorite animals!" Amu exclaims with her face extremely overjoyed with delight. "Really, me too." I say while smiling. (I don't know what Amu's true favorite animal is)
Amu's face dies down as she faces forward. I stare at her with concern for her sudden change of mood. Tears are threatening to form in her eyes, but quickly fall down. I face the direction she is, and see him.
Tadase Hotori. His eyes are wide open with shock, surprise, envy, and anger. This is not good at all. Does this mean I have to blow my cover of knowing she broke up with him? Does she still miss him, I really wonder.
"T-Tadase." Amu stutters while tears are still streaming down her face. "Amu, is this the guy whom you were saying you like? Tsukiyomi Ikuto? Really, has something been going on behind my back?" Tadase screams extremely loud and shrill with anger within his voice. Amu just opens her mouth, but nothing comes out as she breaks down crying.
This kiddy king is a total Son of a Bitch. I'm not going to allow him to hurt Amu's feelings.
"Look here Tadase, Amu and I are only going to the Zoo. We are not truly on a date, and to be honest, what does it matter if we were though? You said that you could just be friends didn't you? So leave her alone, don't make her feel worse than she already does okay? Come on Amu." I say while grabbing her hand and walking away. Of course, tears are still rapidly falling from her beautiful face.
We stop over at the bench, and sit down. I go grab her some vanilla ice cream, and for me chocolate. As soon as we finish our ice creams, she isn't crying anymore, but now she started again.
"Amu, it's fine now. He didn't follow us, he must not care anymore. I won't let him yell at you like that ever again. Some ex-boyfriend he is." I sneer while thinking of Tadase then shuddering with hate. "B-But-" I interrupt her with my lips crashing into hers. I continue to gently kiss her. By the time we finish, she isn't crying anymore to my own relief. I can't stand to see her cry.
The end of this chapter. Review, and I'll update as soon as I can. Thanks Minna. ^^
