So here is the long waited for chapter seven. I can't believe that I have already gone this far into the story. So I have something to say. There is only one way I can write this fanfiction. First is that for the day I am writing or the day before I read a lot of Shugo Chara fanfiction in order to get in the Amuto Mood, meaning only thinking about amuto. Second is listening to music. And I mean music I like. Third is to go to a quiet place alone. And finally is remembering about all the people who read Gang Love. Thanks to everyone I have gone this far.

Disclaimer: I do not own Shugo chara or any of its characters. If I did I would be the happiest girl alive.

Ikuto was walking back home with Amu after spending all morning looking for her. He loved her, and would prove it to anybody whenever possible. Just walking with her made him feel glad that he had met her. The cold, December wind blew, making Amu shiver slightly. Yet, Ikuto noticed it and hugged her tighter, shielding her from the freezing breeze. If he could have just one wish in the world, it would be for that moment to last forever. He would die for Amu, and he knew that she would also.

"Ne Ikuto, if you could thank Kami for one thing, what would it be?" Amu asked him, her innocent, amber, eyes looking up at him.

"Oh, nothing in particular." He teased her a bit, looking for a reaction. "But I would thank Kami for you and all the time we have spent together." Amu leaned closer to him, and held his navy blue coat with one pale hand.

"I would thank Kami for you, Ikuto," she said. Ikuto then leaned down and gave Amu a quick kiss.

Soon they were walking silently again, enjoying each other's company. Then all of a sudden Amu collapsed to the Floor! Ikuto quickly picked her up and was horrified to notice that she was burning with a fever. He then ran all the way back to the house, cursing himself for not bringing Yoru, since he would have arrived sooner with a chara change.

-School, Lunchtime-

"Do you think Ikuto-kun already found Amu-chi?" Yaya asked the group while eating. They had called Ikuto earlier, but he hadn't found Amu yet.

"I don't know Yaya. But knowing him, he won't rest until he finds her. Nagi call him and check." Kukai replied after opening his water bottle. But before Nagihiko could pull out his cell phone, Nadeshiko's rang. She answered it, and after a moment went ghostly pale. She then hanged up slowly, trying to comprehend what she had heard.

"It was Ikuto-san. He found Amu a short while ago. But she has a very high fever. He can't seem to make it go down." Nadeshiko told them, almost talking as if she needed to say them in order to believe it. Yaya instantly started crying.

"That cannot be. Just yesterday she was perfectly healthy." Kukai said in disbelief.

"You and Souma should go and help Ikuto. Nobody will suspect anything since I told the teacher that she was sick. They will think that you had to go to take care of her." Nagihiko told them while trying to make Yaya stop crying. Kukai nodded in agreement. Ikuto probably needed all the help he could get. He and Nadeshiko quickly left unnoticed.

-At the House-

"Ikuto-san, go and fill the bucket with more cold water. It is nearly empty again. Or try ice. Maybe it will last longer." Su was putting a cold, wet cloth over Amu's forehead. She was so worried about her that she didn't put desu after each sentence she spoke. She had also been horrified to see Amu in that state, yet she quickly took off her wig and removed the contacts. When Amu didn't stir during that Su got a thermometer to check her temperature. It had read one hundred and twenty degrees Fahrenheit, and her temperature instead of going down kept going up. Su was about to change the cloth again when she noticed that Amu had started to stir. She went quickly over to her side in case she woke up.

"Ikuto? Ikuto? Don't leave me Ikuto!" Amu had started yelling suddenly, getting in a sitting position. "Ikuto! Ikuto! Ikutooo!" She was soon crying and yelling for Ikuto. As soon as he heard Amu calling him, Ikuto had ran up to their room. He tried to calm her down but she was still asleep. She didn't recognize his voice and continued to yell.

"How is Amu-chan…?" Nadeshiko and Kukai had arrived, and found Ikuto trying unsuccessfully to calm a hysterical Amu down. Seeing the scene Nadeshiko remembered a time when Nagihiko had been almost as sick as Amu, before he had gotten kidnapped by the Black Lynx. She remembered what her mother had done. And she knew that for Amu everything would have to be on a higher degree than it had been for Nagihiko.

"Su, go and fill the bathtub with ice cold water, and only cold water. Don't put any warm in it. Ikuto-san, Kukai, go get the buckets and fill them with ice. Pour the ice in the tub with the cold water. We want it to be as cold as possible. I'll change Amu into something that is thinner." Nadeshiko tried to talk calmly so that Ikuto wouldn't be any more scared than he was already, yet she felt in the verge of crying seeing her best friend in that state. When all that had been done she had Ikuto carry Amu and put her in the bathtub carefully.

"Won't that make it worse? The water is barely above freezing level." Ikuto asked Nadeshiko after putting Amu down.

"No, it will help her fever come down. But once it does she will be very cold. I want you and Kukai to fill your room with all the radiators you can find in the house. Once you are done with that bring me some warm clothes, preferably pajamas, for me to put on her. And have Su put clean sheets on the bed." Nadeshiko said as she poured some water over Amu's head.

-Hour and a Half Later-

Amu's fever had finally gone down, and she was now sleeping somewhat soundly. Nadeshiko and Su were cooking food for when Amu woke up in case she was hungry, seeing that she had missed both breakfast and lunch. Kukai was watching the television in the living room. Ikuto was also in the living room, but he just sat there, staring into space, not doing anything. He kept thinking what would have happened if Nadeshiko and Kukai hadn't arrived. Would Amu have died? He kept repeating the same question over and over again. Kukai noticed how quiet he was and decided to ask Ikuto what had happened.

"How did you find Hinamori?" Upon hearing a voice, Ikuto looked up, almost as if breaking from a trance.

"What happened to her Ikuto-san?" Nadeshiko asked him, coming out of the kitchen. "How did she get sick?" Ikuto then took a moment before answering.

"I first was looking through the security tapes. The one by the main gate had Amu going out at six in the morning. It didn't show her returning. So I left and looked for her. I found Amu on the other side of town at about eight fifty or nine. We were coming back when she collapsed."

"That makes sense." Both Ikuto and Nadeshiko turned to look at Kukai who had spoken. "It was raining from around six thirty in the morning till about seven forty five. The rain had woken me up and I couldn't fall asleep again. My guess is that she probably kept walking without stopping for shelter when it was raining." He added after seeing the looks he was getting from them.

"Ikuto?" They all looked towards the stair case where they saw Amu standing. She had the warmest pajamas that Ikuto could find.

"What are you doing up, Amu? You should be sleeping, not walking around." Ikuto went over to her as he was talking and picked her up bridal style. He then placed her next to him on the couch next to the fireplace, which there was a fire in.

"I woke up and got up to come with you. I didn't want to be alone in the room. Thanks." The last part was directed to Nadeshiko as she gave Amu a warm blanket.

"Do you want to eat Amu-chan?" Nadeshiko asked her.

"No thank you, Nadeshiko. I just want to sleep right now." Replied Amu as she got closer to Ikuto. Soon she fell asleep peacefully in his arms.

"Ne, Ikuto. I'm going to fix the chara's room. They want the house Amu got them in there. So I have to remove the bunks and fix a couple of things." Kukai told Ikuto as he got up. "You stay here with Hinamori. We don't want to wake her up."

When everybody else got home, they found Ikuto asleep while holding a sleeping Amu. So they all closed the door and decided to leave them alone. They were all glad that Amu was back and well. The only problem they had for the rest of the day was that Yaya wanted to wake them up and the gang had to keep her away.

I know this is not the best of works, but please don't kill me. I wanted to write a bit of Amuto. And I had gotten this idea a couple of days ago. It isn't really a filler chapter but not a chapter that many were expecting. And that one day lasted for three chapters. Wow. So please tell me your ideas. Rate and review. ^.^
