Chapter 4

Ikuto's POV

I can't believe I was dragged here...

"Ikuto! Look! A baby goat! CUTE!" Amu squealed as she ran through the crowd of people at the fair to the goat's cage.

I let out a small sigh as I followed her. I always hated the fair, ever since that day...


Flashback

I was around eleven years old and Amu was seven. Our parents brought us to the fair for the first time in our lives. We were excited to go on every ride, play every game, and meet every animal.

Amu ran over to a horse's cage, peeking in through the wire. "Ikuto! A horsey!" She yelled smiling brightly. Amu's favorite animal at that time was the horse, of coarse, of coarse... haha... Anyway! I ran up to her and picked her up so that she could see the horse better.

The horse stuck its head over the cage, curious to who we are.

"Yay!" Amu exclaimed. She reached her small hand up and pet the horse's nose. "I'm going to name him... Bubbles!" She giggled when the horse nudged her hand for her to continue to pet it. "Good Bubbles!"

"Ikuto! Amu!" My mom yelled over to us to follow her.

So I took Amu's hand and pulled her with me to our parents. Amu pouted, sad that she had to leave... Bubbles..

The rest of the day we had a blast! Until two things happened.

One, near the end of the day, I fell into horse crap.

Two, we lost Amu.

We ran around searching for her, but it was dark out and the park was starting to close.

"Amu!" We yelled as we ran, looking for her pink head of hair.

That was when I had an idea, I sprinted ahead of the group and headed towards the entrance.

"Ikuto! Come back! We don't want to lose you also!" My mom yelled after me.

I ran until I came upon the horse cages. I walked over to Bubbles cage. "Amu?" I hear a light sobbing coming from the cage. "Amu?" I look inside to see Amu sitting in a corner of the cage, but Bubbles was not there. "Amu!" I smile when I see that she is okay. I climb the wire and jump inside, landing with a light thud.

Amu looked up and smiled through her tears at me. "Ikuto! They took Bubbles!" She yelled and ran up and hugged me. "Eww... why do you smell so bad?"

"I fell in horse poo..." I admitted, laughing slightly.

Amu started to laugh and laugh. "Silly Ikuto!" I was glad I could make her smile again.

"IKUTO! AMU!" Our parents yelled, running over to us.

"Thank god!" Midori cried, rubbing the worried tears from her face.

End Flashback


After that day, I never really liked fairs quite the same.

I stood next to Amu and watched her as she bent over to feed the baby goat. She smiled brightly when he accepted the food from her hand.

"Ikuto, you should feed it!" Amu suggested.

I shook my head no. "No thanks, me and animals... we just don't work well together.."

"Are you still thinking of that day when you fell in horse crap? Gosh Ikuto, for the millionth time, animals are not out to get you! Just feed Pepper!" She handed me the cracker.

I took the cracker from her hand. "Pepper?" I turn to the cage and stick the cracker through a hole, waiting for the goat to take it.

Pepper took it from my hand cautiously before happily finishing the cracker.

"See! I told you you'd be fine!" Amu smiled at me and I couldn't help but smile back. She has always had the most beautiful smile, even when she was a kid and had missing teeth. She grabbed my hand and pulled me to the tea cups. "Remember these Ikuto? These were our favorite ride." We sat in the tea cup and it started to spin. I spun it faster and faster until it seemed like it was just the two of us, colors blurring in the background. Amu laughed happily. "Faster!" So I spun us faster just so I could make her happy.

The ride slowed to a halt. We got off and spent the rest of the day on the roller coasters.

Finally the day had faded into night.

"Ikuto, lets go to the Ferris wheel!" She pulled me into the Ferris wheel seat, holding my hand lightly.

The ferris wheel started and it slowly lifted us into the air, until it stopped at the top suddenly.

"Ah!" Amu yelped.

"Sorry, but we are having some small technical problems, but we should hopefully have you all down soon." A man said through a speaker.

We sat in silence for a bit, my thoughts focused on her hand that had still not left mine, but my eyes stayed foreword looking over the lit up fair.

"Its beautiful at night." Amu whispered looking at the fair below.

I nodded my head in agreement.

"Okay... so we are having more than small technical problems, more like a ton, we should have you down in an hour though... I hope..."

I rolled my eyes in annoyance. "Great..."

"Ikuto look!" Amu said pointing over to the firework display that had just started. We were so close to it, it was almost as though we could touch them. "Wow!" She grinned widely as she watched the fireworks dance above our heads. I watched her eyes light up with every firework that blew up in the sky. Her hand tightened its grasp on mine slightly.

Soon the fireworks stopped.

Amu turned to me, smiling. "Wasn't that great?"

Her face was so close to mine, we both stopped breathing for a second.

"I-Ikuto?" Amu asked breaking the silence.

I couldn't take it anymore, I leaned foreword and kissed her lips. She slowly responded to my kiss and started to kiss me back. I felt like my gut was on fire. Is that what they call butterflies?

She licked my lips, her tongue asking for entrance. The flame inside grew larger. I opened my mouth and allowed her tongue entrance. It shot inside and started to play with mine. The flame lowered downwards toward my lower region. I let out a low grunt. "Amu..."

Amu noticed the small tent in my pants and blushed lightly. "A-Already?"

I nodded my head slowly. "Amu, I need you, now..." I leaned in and kissed her sweet lips.

The ride jolted foreward, before spinning again. We removed ourselves from each other then got off of the ride. I pulled her out of the park to my car and lay her on the back seat.

She already starts to remove her clothing and my clothing. "Ikuto!" She whined tugging at my pants.

I smirk at her, causing her to blush. "Eagar are we?"

"S-Sh-Shut up..." She stammered averting her gaze from my face to the car floor.

I loved how she blushed about it, when we have done it so many times.

"You're beautiful." I whisper in her ear and then nibble the ear lobe. I could feel the heat spread from her cheeks to her ears.

I heard a small sob escape her lips. "S-Say it again..."

I kissed my way down from her ear to her neck. "You're beautiful, Amu."

She started to cry, her hands flying to her face to cover it from me. She always became emotional when I call her beautiful, because she knew, compared to Tadase, when I said it, it was genuine. Tadase says it to her all the time, like a broken record. "Stop it..." She cried in her hands. "Stop making me fall for you!" She yelled, her voice cracking.

I felt the world around me stop at that moment. She's falling for me? She can't be falling for me, she promised...


Flashback...

Normal POV

Amu was seventeen years old and in her last year of middle school. Ikuto was twenty one, turning twenty two in one day. It was 11pm and Amu was racing around her room trying to think of something to get Ikuto for his birthday. She always made sure to be the first to tell him happy birthday and the first to give his gift. She didn't think she could top last years' gift, his father.

Ikuto's father went missing six years ago and so Amu searched hard to find him for Ikuto's twenty first birthday. With the help of her friends and family she was able to reunite them. She had never seen Ikuto so happy.

There was no way she could top that.

Tick Tick

Tick Tick

Amu looked over to see Ikuto outside on her balcony, tapping on her sliding glass door. She looked over at her clock to see that it was going to be midnight in a few minutes. She walked over and opened the door, letting him in. She walked over to her bed and sat on it, patting a spot next to her for him to sit.

Ikuto walked over and sat down next to her. "Hello Amu-koi..." He smirked at her reaction.

"D-Don't call me that..." She said blushing her eyes wandering over to her clock. "H-Happy birthday Ikuto... I don't have a gift though..."

Ikuto grabbed Amu's chin and turned it so that she was looking at him. "I have been wanting something but its been hard to get..."

Amu jumped up with determination. "Name it and I'll get it!"

Ikuto laughed and pulled Amu back onto the bed. "Its not something you can just find at the store Amu."

"Oh." Amu looked at Ikuto confused. "Then what is it?"

Ikuto fell back onto his back on the bed. "I want you to find out yourself. Its still my birthday all day, so i'll give you twenty four hours to figure it out. I'll even give you a hint, only you have what I want." Then Ikuto got up and jumped off the balcony.

"I have it?" Amu looked around her room to see if any of her stuff was what a boy would want, but all of it was too girly.

...

The day was almost over and Amu's room was flipped upside down.

Ikuto opened her balcony door and entered her messy room.

"Ikuto! No! It can't be time already! I haven't thought of what you want.." She whined, slightly frustrated.

Ikuto let out a small laugh. "You always have been a bit dense when it comes to this..."

Amu glared at him. "Dense! I'm not dense!"

Ikuto grabbed Amu by the shoulders before smashing his lips against hers. He detached his lips from hers before she could respond. "Thank you for the birthday present Amu, but just don't fall in love with me, okay?" He blew her a kiss and winked at her before leaving.

Amu stood there shocked.

End Flashback


I grabbed her small hands and kissed them lightly.

Amu let out a small gasp. Her sobs started to quiet down into small hiccups. She looked at me with large eyes.

I didn't know what to say to her, so I just kissed her. She kissed me back and finally rid me of the rest of my clothes. I didn't feel like playing games, I wanted her screaming my name already. I thrust myself inside of her and she moaned loudly through our kisses. I kept up a steady pace, until I heard exactly what I wanted to hear.

"Ikuto!" She gasped. "F-Faster!"

I sped up my pace, feeling close to my climax.

"H-Harder...!" She moaned slamming her hands against the car door behind her.

I slammed into her with such force and such speed that the whole car was shaking from our session.

"Amu!" I yelled as I felt myself no longer able to hold back.

"Ikuto!" She screamed soon after cumming.


The next day...

It was late in the afternoon and Amu was already back from her classes.

Amu walked into my room, knocking on the door lightly. She leaned against it, her arms crossed over her chest as she watched me read. "What are you reading?" She asked casually.

I looked at the front cover of the book, forgetting what it was called. "Uh... Zombie Apocalypse.." Then I went back to reading.

"Ikuto, I need to tell you something." She said looking at the ground.

I smiled at her, walked over, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her onto my lap on my bed. "Tell Santa what it is little girl."

She laughed a little then punched my shoulder lightly. "No, its serious Ikuto."

I frowned slightly. "Okay, serious, got it. So what's up?"

"Ikuto, I'm moving out." She looked like she was going to cry.

I looked at her, wide eyed. "Moving... out..? What? Why?"

"T-Tadase asked me to move in with him. He even admitted he did not like the fact that I was rooming with another guy. I said yes.." She looked away from me and looked around my room.

I let out a small sigh. "Okay, I understand.. When are you moving out?"

She turned back to me, forcing a smile. "In two days, but the movers are coming tomorrow to start picking my stuff up."

"Then lets make these last two days count." I lean my head foreward and kiss her neck.

She got up and walked towards my door. "No Ikuto, we can't anymore..." She said looking at the floor again. "Tadase is my boyfriend and Lulu is your girlfriend. And... I can't stop falling for you if we continue our games... that was the reason I said yes." Then she walked out of my room and back to hers.
