~Normal POV~
Amu sighed as she picked up the last remains of cans. After everybody left, Amu's stepmother ordered Amu to clean up the whole mess. Amu then got up and dragged the chubby bag full of cans outside and left it there for recycling. Amu then got a bucket full of soap water and went outside to clean the floor. She started scrubbing the dirty floor as she thought about what happened after Ikuto and Amu kissed.
~Flashback~
Amu fixed up her makeup and looked at herself. (Ikuto is outside her room) Amu tore off the outfit and using some scissors she found in her room, she remade the outfit. When she was done the bunny suit now looked like a pirate girl's dress. Amu didn't care. She put the dress on and looked at herself. Happy with what she looked like she hurried out of the room. She made sure her wig was still on and opened the door.
"You looked beautiful." Ikuto said in fount of her. "But wouldn't you like it better if you took off your wig?" Amu shook her head. "Very well." Ikuto and Amu walked down the stairs. Couples stared at them as they descended. At the foot of the stairs, they cleared a path. Amu and Ikuto strolled to the centre and soon a slow song came on. Amu and Ikuto started dancing. Couples stared at them in envy. Amu and Ikuto made sure they had a show to show the couples. As soon as the dance ended, Ikuto scooped down and kissed Amu. Amu kissed back. Nagihiko, Rima, Yaya and Kairi watched too from the crowd and smiled.
While that was happening, Saaya was fuming.
"How could that have happened? That letter was supposed to push them apart, not closer!" Aiko tried to calm Saaya down as Mizuki watched the newly formed couple. And she did something no one thought she would do. She smiled.
~End of Flashback~
Of course Amu also saw Mizuki smiled. After everyone left, she lied on the floor of her room and thought about her day. First she thought about Ikuto but soon it went to Mizuki. Amu thought Mizuki would have tried to tear her and Ikuto apart but instead she smiled. Amu was puzzled. Soon she fell asleep and now she was cleaning up the mess when suddenly Mizuki came into the room.
Amu hadn't finish cleaning the floor and thought Mizuki might have called her stepmother but instead she did something else.
"Amu get up from the dirty floor. You should be shopping for some new clothes now that you have a rich boyfriend. And don't worry about the floor. I'll get one of my maids to do it." Mizuki beamed at Amu. Amu stared at her like she was loco but never less she got up and left. Amu then hid behind one of the bushes. 5 minutes later Mizuki stepped outside and closed the door. Making sure she wasn't followed, Mizuki set off in the direction of downtown which was weird because downtown, there were only small stores that sold stuff like food and cheap clothes.
Amu set off after Mizuki. Soon they were in an old alley of downtown. There were at least 3 shops there. Sunlight filled the place and about 5 other people were there. Amu followed Mizuki as she walked toward the end of the alley. At the end was a newly opened store selling bread.
No way would Mizuki be buying bread. Amu thought. Mizuki then walked inside the shop. Amu watched through the glass window as she walked up to a teenage boy. He was in fount of the oven watching and poking the bread. Mizuki must have scared the boy because he jumped and turned around really fast. Amu then got a better look at the boy. He was normal like not skinny or fat. He had blond hair and was wearing a white apron. And that's when it hit Amu. Mizuki had a crush on this guy. That's why she was so nice. Mizuki then brought some bread and walked out of the door.
"You have a crush!" Amu yelled at Mizuki. Mizuki jumped about a feet off the ground.
"Shh. Don't tell anyone." Mizuki said as she caught the sight of Amu.
"That's so sweet. My step-sister has a crush." Amu said. Amu suddenly had the urge to help Mizuki.
"Come on. Tomorrow is Valentine's Day right? We should get you some chocolates." Amu couldn't believe that she was helping her evil step-sister. Amu then dragged Mizuki around downtown.
"Why are we looking for chocolate downtown? There are high qualities chocolate at the town centre." Mizuki said.
"Because those chocolates are made by other people. Downtown there are really good chocolate ingredients and its better if you make the chocolates yourself." Amu explained to Mizuki. Amu then dragged Mizuki into a grocery store. Amu then ran down the aisles, grabbing bags of chocolate and stuff.
"Are you done?" Mizuki asked Amu.
"Yep." Amu said as she dumped a pile onto the counter. The cashier started checking the items. Soon she was done and Amu told Mizuki to pay.
"Why do I have to pay?" Mizuki complained.
"Because I have no money and you're making the chocolates." Amu said. Mizuki grumbled as she handed over the money. Amu grabbed all of the bags and rushed home while Mizuki struggled to catch up. Next thing you know they were in the kitchen.
"Now how am I supposed to do this? I don't even know how to cook!" Mizuki cried.
"Don't worry. I'll get Mary to help us." Amu assured Mizuki. "Mary get your ass here!" Mary entered the kitchen and looked at Amu.
"What do you want now?" Mary asked. Mizuki couldn't stop staring at Mary. She never knew that Mary was 22 years old. No she looked way younger. She was a brunette and had green eyes. Mizuki then stopped staring and looked at Amu.
"I need you to help Mizuki make some chocolate." Amu said.
"Wait. You mean the spoiled brat here wants to make chocolate?" Mary said in disbelieve. "Come on stop it Amu. I know this is a joke. No way would someone like her wanna make chocolate."
"Mary don't say that in fount of her. To tell the truth, she had been very nice to me lately and it's because she has a crush on a downtown baker." Amu explained. Mizuki shot her a look but Amu ignored it.
"Oh really?" Mary raised an eyebrow and looked at Mizuki.
"Yes I have a crush on a baker and would like to give him some chocolate." Mizuki blurted out.
"Oh very well. But making chocolate is harder than you think. Are you up to it?" Mary asked. Mizuki nodded her head. "Amu get Suu and get her to help." Mary said. Amu dashed away.
"Who's Suu?" Mizuki asked.
"Amu's chara." Mary answered.
"Amu has a chara?" Mizuki asked.
"Yes she does. You just haven't pay attention. And she has four." Mary said as she got the ingredients out of the bags.
"Wow." Amu then ran back with Suu following her.
"Got her." Amu said.
"Good let's get to work."
…
Amu sighed as they finished the last batch of chocolates.
"You were right. Making chocolate is harder than it looks." Mizuki said. Amu then surveyed the room. On the floor were chocolate and on the walls were rotten eggs that Amu found and accidentally threw at Mizuki. Let's just say that there was a rotten egg war after that. But after their hard work, they made the perfect chocolate.
"Now we have to wrap it up." Mary said. Amu brought out a heart shaped box and ribbons. Soon the team set to work on wrapping the chocolate.
"Are you sure that he's going to like it?" Mizuki asked.
"Positive." Amu answered. "And now we're finally done." Amu handed Mizuki the box.
"Thank you so much Amu. How can I repay you?" Mizuki asked.
"Tell your mom not to hurt me too much." Amu said as she left the kitchen.
…
Mizuki hold the box of chocolate close to her heart. It was Valentine's Day and she was looking for the baker. She walked around until she saw him…with another girl. He giving her a heart made out of hearts. Mizuki's heart broke. She dropped the box and ran away. The baker noticed Mizuki and hurried after her. He then found her beside a fountain.
"Mizuki." He said.
"Go away." She said.
"It's not what it looks like. I wanted to give you the heart but you ran away. I was just showing a good friend of mine the heart." The baker said. Mizuki raised her head.
"Is that true?" Mizuki asked. He nodded and gave her the heart. Mizuki smiled.
"Mizuki!" A voice rang out, clear as bells. Mizuki looked at the direction of the voice. Out stepped her mother.
"What are you doing here? This is downtown. You shouldn't be shopping at some filthy place." Mizuki's mother said. "Come on. We're going shopping."
"No." Mizuki said. The hag and Aiko stopped and turned around.
"What did you say?"
"I said no." Mizuki said more firmly.
"You are grounded missy." The hag said and turned around and walked away with Aiko.
"Well I gotta go now. I hope we'll see each other soon." Mizuki said. She then walked away to home. (The hag went the other direction) And somewhere around there, an unknown pairs of eyes watched.
…
"OMGOSH I forgot to get Ikuto something!" Amu yelled. "And I don't even have enough money." Amu grumbled for forgetting.
"Who wants to challenge the great Rico, the greatest Japanese dancer?" Someone yelled out. The words caught Amu's attention. Of course Amu was competitive. Amu hurried to the crowd.
"The winner who beats Rico here gets 9,245 yen!" (100 dollars in US) The announcer said. Soon a girl with black hair stepped up. Amu noticed her as one of the rich sluts who poured themselves over Ikuto. Music soon blasted through the crowd. She failed terribly. But she did help Amu by showing Amu how Rico danced.
"Come on. Can no one beat the famous Rico?"
"I could." Amu stepped forward.
"You seem sure of yourself." He said.
"I'm not sure; I know that I can beat this loser." Amu stated. A series of "Ohh" came up.
"All right then. Go ahead." Music again blasted through.
(I'm too lazy to write what they're doing so just imagine it.)

The crowd stared in shock at Amu.
"I think I won." Amu said as she grabbed the bag of money. She then ran away. At downtown she went to the aisle where she found the bags of chocolate. She quickly grabbed some and put it on the counter. The cashier checked the items and Amu paid. She then rushed home and with the help of Suu, she made the chocolate. She didn't have enough time to make a whole lot but made enough to give to Ikuto.
She then called Ikuto.
"Hello?"
"Hey Ikuto. Um where are you right now?" Amu asked.
"So Amu wants to know where I am." Ikuto said.
"I don't have time for your games Ikuto." Amu said impatiently.
"Fine. I'm at the town centre." Ikuto replied.
"Thanks." Amu said as she hung up. Amu then put the chocolates in a small bag and tied it with a ribbon. She grabbed a coat and rushed outside. Amu didn't know why she had an urge to give the chocolates to Ikuto but never less she ran. When she got to the town centre she looked around for Ikuto.
She then found him…around a bunch of pretty girls.
"This is for you Ikuto."
"Please accept my chocolates."
"Call me"
Amu felt sad. Why hadn't Ikuto told her that he was hanging out with a bunch of girls? Ikuto then noticed Amu.
"Excuse me girls." Ikuto said as he pushed through the crowd of girls.
"Hey Amu." He said cheerfully.
"Hey." Amu said.
"What's wrong?" Ikuto asked.
"Well I just came here to find you surrounded by a bunch of girls." Amu said.
"So you're jealous." Ikuto said.
"No I'm not!" Amu yelled.
"You're denying it…" Ikuto smirked. "So why you come here?"
"To give you this." Amu handed him the bag. "But I guess you won't eat them since the other ones the girls gave you must be fancier or something." Amu grumbled.
"Amu don't you know that ever Valentine's I don't eat the chocolates girls give me. Although chocolate is my favorite on Valentine's Day I get so many chocolates that I get sick of it." Ikuto said.
"So you're saying that you won't eat any chocolate on Valentine's Day, even mine?" Amu said.
"For you it's different." Ikuto said. "Besides I saw you at that dance competition today." Amu blushed.
"You saw?"
"Of course. Didn't you see the camera? It was broadcast for TV." Ikuto said. Amu blushed harder.
"Come on. Let's go somewhere." Ikuto said as he opened the chocolate bag and started eating.
"You do know you're a pig." Amu said as she watched him eat.
"That's not a nice thing to say considering I'm your boyfriend." Ikuto said.
"Who said I was your girlfriend!" Amu yelled.
"You just did." Ikuto said.
"Argh you're so annoying." Amu grumbled.
"Don't you mean sexy?" Ikuto asked.
"No and I think you're a narcissist." Amu said.
"What ever."
