Scarlett: Hello guys, I have something to tell you
Ikuto: You're going to change the rating to M?
Scarlett: No, idiot! It's just that… School is about to start and I might not be able to update again
Amu: What?!
Scarlett: I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'll make it up to all of you and update more chapter, probably 2 or 3 chapter per day, what do you think?
Amu: Well, what are you waiting for?! Go on and start typing!
Scarlett: Hai!
"Amu…?" Utau groaned out, she woke up with a start when she noticed that Amu was nowhere to be seen.
"Rima, wake up, where's Amu?" Utau shook the girl beside her who was sleeping but then woke up as well.
"What? She's right there of course" Rima pointed to the empty bed and her face fell.
"Where is she?!" Utau exclaimed and stood up, checking the bathroom, no Amu. Peeked under the bed, no Amu as well. She even flipped the blanket as if Amu could hide beneath it without being noticeable but obviously, still no Amu.
"No need to worry, Miss Hoshina, she's right here" The door creaked open to reveal the nurse who held Amu by the wrist as she tried to writhe away.
"Amu!" Utau exclaimed and rushed towards the two. "What happened?"
"This girl here, tried to escape, thankfully, a nurse who was just passing by saw her and brought her to me or else she would have exit this hospital without any of you knowing" The nurse explained.
"Leave me alone!" Amu exclaimed and tried pulling her arm free.
"Well, umm… thanks I guess" Utau scratched her head and smiled sheepishly.
"It's no problem, but I would like to inform you that Miss Hinamori over here would be leaving this hospital today" the nurse informed Utau who just nodded.
Utau then took Amu and made her sit beside Rima who held her shoulders just incase she made a run towards the door once more and the nurse then left.
"Amu, why did you escape?" Utau asked while kneeling in front of the pinkette.
"I…I… hate it here" Amu whispered softly. "I…want to leave, now"
"Don't worry, we're leaving today, let's just pack our stuff and we're ready to leave, everybody hates it here in the hospital after all" Utau said cheerfully.
Amu only nodded and sat as she watched the two fixed their stuff and got ready to leave. The only reason she wanted to leave this place was because she thought that maybe, just maybe her terrifying nightmares would leave her alone, nothing more and nothing less.
"See you, Rima" Utau smiled and shut the door of the taxi shut as Rima waved goodbye but Amu simply stared though Rima didn't mind, she knew Amu still have some adjusting to do and it will cost some time. and then the taxi drove off.
"Well, isn't this home sweet home?" Utau smiled and Amu simply nodded as the blonde lead her towards the front porch of the mansion as she rang the doorbell twice and a maid came running to open it.
"Why, Miss Hoshina! I'm glad you have returned!" A maid bowed down in front of the two.
"Yeah, and we have a guest so is the room ready?" Utau raised an eyebrow and the maid nodded.
"Of course, Madame" The maid bowed down once more as the two walked pass her and up the circling staircase, pass the dead silent halls, around a corner and stopped just in front of a wooden door, neatly cleansed and brushed to perfection.
"Well, here's your room, I chose this since it's the closest to mine" Utau smiled and pointed towards the room just across Amu's room. "And… further from the exit, I won't let you escape once again" Utau whispered softly and sighed, thankful that Amu wasn't able to hear it.
"So, let's go check it out?" Utau asked and Amu let out a small 'yes' and she turned the knob to reveal a magnificent room, surely you could think that it was the master's bedroom itself but no, it's simply a guest room, nothing else.
"What do you think?" Utau smiled and Amu nodded.
"Beautiful" She murmured and Utau felt happy for that instant.
"Well, I guess I have to leave for a while, but I'm just across this room since I'll just be getting a few clothes for you, okay?" The blonde turned to her heels and left.
Amu sighed and inhaled deeply, will she really escape the tragic event that happened to her? No, she won't. Surely, her parents or even Ami might as well blame her for letting them die, but what wrong deed has she done anyway? It wasn't her fault that they died, but she knew that it was her fault that Ikuto died, if only she didn't rushed him, then none of this happened.
"Amu, here's some clothes, put them on if you'd like" Utau suddenly barged in, clutching tons of clothes hanged on hangers on her hands.
Amu, who was interrupted from her thoughts simply nodded as the blonde girl handed it to her.
"Shall I pick one?" She muttered but Utau quickly shook her head and said.
"No need, it's all yours" She grinned widely and Amu couldn't believe her ears and her eyes, right in front of her were the most expensive brands she had ever seen in her life.
"But…" Amu tried to complain though Utau quickly shushed her.
"No more buts, I said, it's all yours" She placed her hands on her hips and smiled.
"Thank you…" Amu smiled though she still couldn't believe it.
Utau nodded, she'd do anything just to make sure that Amu would feel better and as far as she could see, it was working.
"Do you want to take a short nap?" Utau asked, not aware that Amu actually stayed up all night at the hospital last night in fear of her horrible nightmares.
"No" The pinkette suddenly hissed and Utau nodded though she was actually freaked out from the sudden mood swing of this girl.
"O-Okay, just come down if you want some snack" Utau smiled and quickly rushed out.
Utau quickly shut the door closed and leaned on the wall, what has gotten on Amu? She would think but of course, there was no one to answer her questions but one thing's for sure, Utau would never want Amu to be like that, ever, she just hope that her pink haired friend would slowly turn back to the way she was before.
Suddenly, her phone rang and she flipped it open, it was Rima, who else would contact her anyway? It would only be either Rima or Kukai and nobody else.
"Yes?" Utau spoke as she walked down the staircase.
"How's Amu?" Rima asked, she was surely worried and somehow, she knew that something happened.
"Well, she has those terrible mood swings kicking up again" Utau sighed. "It's freaking me out"
"I doubt you're going to last 2 weeks with her, if you can't, just tell me and I'll keep her" Rima sighed.
"I can do it, don't underestimate me, Rima" Utau hissed, she hated it if Rima looks down on her.
"I'm not." Rima spat back, she hated it when Utau is being a bitch. "I'm just saying"
"Well, whatever, I'll just call you when something comes up" The blonde said.
"Then, I bet you'll be calling me every freaking second" Rima grinned.
"Oh, shut up" Utau huffed while Rima laughed on the other line. "Well, I'll call you back if something does happen"
"Sure, bye" said Rima and ended the call as Utau flipped her phone close.
"Ms. Hoshina" A maid bowed down in front of her. "Shall I serve the guest some snacks?"
"Umm… yeah" Utau smiled as the maid nodded and went rushing up the stairs with a silver tray filled with different types of desserts and snacks.
"Rima, I've heard your friend has left the hospital" A woman maybe on her forties called out.
"Yeah, she's staying at Utau's" Rima flipped her phone closed.
"So how is she?" The woman asked as she continued typing on her laptop.
"Fine, I guess. Why'd you even ask?" Rima muttered under her breath.
"Just curious" Her mother replied and she simply nodded. "But I want you to avoid her"
Rima's head snapped towards the woman behind her. "Why?" She hissed.
"She's bad influence" Her mother replied, not taking her eyes away from the laptop.
"No, she's not! You don't know her!" Rima growled, her hands turned to fists.
"With one look it's obvious!" Her mother raised her voice as well.
"No! Stop judging her!" Rima exclaimed and threw her arms up.
"I'm your mother and I know what's right!" The woman exclaimed.
"Well, you don't seem like a mother to me!" Rima shouted and ran up towards her room, banging the door shut.
Scarlett: What do you say?
Amu: Sucks
Scarlett: Why so?
Amu: I'm retarded.
Ikuto: You're still beautiful… Amu-koi.
Amu: Shut up!
