Tusk was now throwing rock in the river, as Yamato ran up to him.

"What do you want?" Tusk asked.

"You like her, don't you?" Yamato asked. Tusk looked at Yamato in the eye.

"It is so obvious." Tusk sighed. Yamato nodded. Tusk continued, "I like her. But of what just happened I think she hate me now."

"No she won't." Yamato comforted his friend. "Everything will be alright."

"How could you be so sure?" Tusk looked up waiting for an answer.

"Um…" Yamato stammered.

"Never mind." Tusk sighed again, "But what should I do now?"

"Talk to her. Tell her the truth." Yamato explained. Yamato put his hand on Tusk's shoulder. "She will understand." It was the last thing Yamato said before leaving Tusk alone.

I understand what you said Yamato. But what if she doesn't understand? What if she likes that boy Hiroto? Tusk thought.

"Finally home!" Amu shouted. Then she noticed the weird silence between Sera and Leo. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"The words that you said with Tusk." Leo started.

"Is his fault." Amu interrupted.

"But you must admit it was kinda harsh. Tsuk was just worried for Hiroto." Sera said. More like he is jealous Sera thought.

"Okay. I admit it was kinda harsh but he was shouting and yelling at Hiroto. More like he was worrying. And now Hiroto is mad." Amu half admitted and half protested.

"But why don't you sorry to him?" Leo suggested. Sera nodded. Amu was silence for a few minutes but then walked away.

"Those two are so complicated." Leo complained once Amu was gone.

"I agree with you," Sera nodded.

"We must help them." Leo said.

"No. Let's them figure it out on their own." Yamato objected as he walked in.

"How Tusk?" Sera asked.

"He's fine." Yamato said.

"But I think we should…" Leo started

"No" Yamato stated.

"How about…" Leo started again.

"No" Yamato stated again.

"Maybe we could…" Leo suggested.

"No, let's them figure it out by themselves" Yamato restated. The other 2 nodded.

Hiroto was walking home and he saw Tusk sitting at a bench. He came up to Tusk. Tusk looked up.

"What do you want?" Tusk asked.

"I want to talk to you about Amu." He said. Tusk scooted over as Hiroto sat down.

"What about Amu?" Tusk questioned.

"I want to tell you that I like Amu. And I know that you like her too." Hiroto explained.

"So what?" Tusk protested, he getting annoyed right now.

"But after when you stormed away. I saw Amu's tear and I realized that she might had feelings for you too." Hiroto retold. That got Tusk interested and worried at the same time. He sat up.

"So you want to tell me to give up on her." Tusk said.

"No! Nothing like that." Hiroto protested, "I want to say that I wouldn't come between you and her. But would you mind giving this for her?" Hiroto said as he handed out the bag. Inside was the dress he bought for Amu.

"I don't know what to say. Thank you Hiroto." Tusk smiled, saying Hiroto 's name for the first time.

Hiroto smiled, as he stood up and waved goodbye to Tusk. I hope you find happiness with him Amu. Hiroto whispered in his thought and walked home.

Next time, Tusk and Amu would be talking to each other. Will Tusk tell her his feelings? To be continued in the next chapter! Stay tuned !
