Chapter nine
Ikuto's pov
When I woke up I could see nothing but pink. I blinked trying to remember what had happened. Then I remembered. I had asked Amu to marry me then we went to her house. I smiled and sat up. Amu shivered from the sudden lack of warmth. I tucked her in and got up. Man why didn't Yoru contact me sooner. I would have come right away. Amu must have been so upset.
I walked out of the room. Suddenly the scent of pancakes reached me. I blinked does someone else live with amu? I walked into the kitchen to find some blonde chick cooking breakfast. The blue haired chick from before was sitting at the table drawing and a pink haired girl was eating about ten pancakes at a time. I sneezed suddenly and they all looked up at me.
"Hey who are you how did you get in here!" the pink one yelled. I blinked hadn't amu told them about me. "Amu let me in" I said as though it was obvious. The blue one narrowed her eyes. "Why would amu let you in she isn't a big fan of people." She said crossing her arms. I opened my mouth to respond but suddenly arms wrapped around me and amu laid her head on my shoulder. I smiled and hugged her. "Good morning Amu-koi" I whispered. She blushed and hid her face in my shirt.
"Amu-Chan who is he? Desu" the green one asked setting pancakes in front of the blue one. Amu looked up at me. probably wanting me to answer. I smirked. "What Amu didn't tell you about me" I said resting my cheek against Amu's head. Amu glared up at me.
"This is Ikuto…m...my um uh…" she was probably trying to say fiancé. I chuckled. "I'm Ikuto Amu's fiancé" I said smirking when Amu's face turned redder and she hid her face. All three of the girls jumped up and grabbed amu from me dragging her back into her room. I smirked and then started to eat the blue girls pancakes.
Amu's pov
Ran Miki and Suu dragged me away from Ikuto. They pushed me onto my bed arms crossed. I sighed. "Yes Ikuto is the father. No he did not leave me I left him. Yes I love him. Yes he loves me. The bandages are because a kid was in the road while he was driving. No he didn't hit the kid. The car exploded Ikuto was the only one hurt." I said already knowing what they were gonna ask. Suu pouted.
"But amu Chan what if he's still messing with you" Miki said crossing her arms. I blinked, I hadn't even thought of that. I looked down at my stomach. Then back at them. "No Ikuto is being truthful. He won't leave me I know it." I said confidently. They looked at me. Ran decided to ruin the serious moment. "Well if Amu Chan is happy, I'm happy! Now let's eat pancakes… miki if you don't hurry I'm going to eat yours!" Ran yelled as she ran out of the room, miki chased after her yelling. Suu sighed and followed them. "Don't worry I can make more desu!" she yelled.
Suddenly some one behind me chuckled. I smiled when I recognized the voice. "You sure have a lot of faith in me don't you Amu-koi" he whispered, suddenly right behind me. I blushed then leaned back. He wrapped his arms around me placing one of his hands on my stomach. I put my hand on his. "I have no reason to doubt you right Ikuto" I said looking up at him.
"I will never leave you amu. I really do love you. I know I hurt you in the past but I want to make up for it." His lips brushed against mine. I smiled and stood on tip toes kissing him. "I believe you" I whispered. He grinned and kissed me again. I blinked "Ikuto did you eat miki pancakes?" I asked. He looked at me innocently. I just sighed and punched his arm. "Great way to get on their good side" I said trying not to laugh. He smirked and kissed my neck.
"I'm glad" he said his breathe tickling my neck. I looked back at him. "Why are you so happy?" I asked him. He smiled and put his forehead against mine. His hair tickled my cheeks. I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Ikuto can we go on a date?" I asked. He smiled and kissed my fore head. "Sure get ready ok" I nodded then walked into the bath room.
Ikuto's pov
I sat on the edge of her bed and listened as she turned to shower on. I smiled and picked up a photo album off her desk. As I flipped through the pages I saw that it was from her elementary school. In most of the pictures there was a group of kids with capes. There was a one picture with just amu and Yoru. He had his arms around her waist. She was blushing and holding his hands. Around her neck was a lock. My eyes widened. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a similar key. I grinned to myself, then frowned.
: Flashback:
I walked through the wood, looking for Tadase and utau. They had run off when I refused to play my violin. Nearby the hospital could be seen. I ignored it. Ahead I could hear crying. "Tadase, Utau" I asked. The crying disappeared. I frowned. "Hey are you guys hiding from me" I called out. I walked towards the area the crying had come from. The bushes scratched my legs. Soon I found the source of the crying.
A little girl with pink hair was kneeling behind a bush. Her hair was pulled into pig tails. She was wearing hospital pajamas. "Hey kid why are you out here?" I asked kneeling next to her. She sniffled and looked up at me. Her golden eyes were full of fear. I reached out and pet her. "Hey come on stop crying" I said. Suddenly she clung to me crying harder. I fell back.
"What's your name?" I asked. She sniffled again and looked up at me. "I'm amu" she said her eyes watery. "Well why are you out here in the woods?" I said standing up. I helped her to her feet. She hugged my arm and I sighed. "I'm hiding from the doctors" she said quietly. I tilted my head. "The doctors were talking to mommy and daddy. They said that I might die. And that if I do survive I'll be really weak" she said sniffling. "Well there must be something the doctors can do to help you" I started to lead her back to the hospital. She followed me without complaining. "The doctors said that there is a thing they can do it's like sugary or something" she said as I helped her over a fallen log. "Surgery" I corrected. She nodded. "Yeah that's it."
"Hey onii-san what's your name" she was holding onto my arm. "I'm Iku. You didn't happen to see two blonde kids in the woods did you?" I asked. She nodded. "The little boy was too scared to go in and they ran back home" she said. I just sighed and dragged her towards the hospital. Once inside I stood on my tip toes and tapped on the counter. The lady stood up and looked down at us.
"Oh Amu-Chan what are you doing out of your room?" she asked. Amu crossed her arms. "I was bored so I took a walk." She said. The nurse laughed. "Alright but hurry back to your room now." She said. Amu nodded and walked off. I just followed. "So you have two different characters?" I asked. She nodded and grabbed my arm again. When we walked into her room I noticed that she didn't have any shoes and her feet were cut and bleeding. I sat her down on the bed and pulled some bandages out of the cabinet. "Hold still while I bandage them" I said when she started to laugh and kick her feet. She nodded and sat still. "Will you stay for a while onii-san?" she asked looking down at me. I sighed and nodded. She grinned and laid back. I sat on the edge of the bed.
"Your parents are probably out looking for you" I said she nodded and looked down. "No they probably went home. They don't care. They're already replacing me." she said sadly. I looked up at her surprised. "What do you mean?" I asked. She sniffled starting to cry again. "Ah come one don't cry again" I said hugging her. She hugged me. "Mommy's tummy got big and she said that I'm going to have a little sister" she said. "But the doctors said I'm going to die." I pet her.
"You're not going to die" I said confidently. She blinked and looked up at me. "I'm positive. Look I'll lend you something. You can hold onto it till you're grown up. Then you have to come find me and return it." I reached in my pocket and pulled out a gold lock with a white clover on it. I hung it around her neck. "That's the humpty lock. I have the dumpty key see" I held up the key. She looked down at the lock. "I promise I'll keep it safe till I'm big. But when I find you, you have to promise to marry me ok." She said. Then she kissed me on the cheek. I nodded. The noticed the clock. "Oh no I have to go" I said before running off. I looked back. "Come find me in 14 years" I yelled back at her. She nodded holding onto the lock.
: Flashback:
"Ikuto, hey Ikuto?" I blinked a few times. Amu was waving her hands in front of my face. "Are you ok?" she asked feeling my fore head. I grinned and kissed her suddenly. She blushed. "What's with you Ikuto?" she asked. I smiled and stood up. "When is your birthday amu?" I asked.
"My birthday was two weeks ago" she said surprised by the sudden question. I smirked and put my forehead against hers. "Don't you have a promise to keep?" I asked. She stared at me.
"How do you know about that?" she asked pulling the lock out of her pocket. I took it and put it around her neck. "I have my ways" I whispered in her ear. I pulled the key out of my pocket and dangled it in front of her face.
"The key! So you're the boy from back then." She said surprised. I nodded and lifted her chin. "What happen to your sickness?" I asked. She smiled up at me. "I got the surgery. It worked. The reason I had the courage to get it was because you told me I would live" she said snuggling against my chest. I wrapped my arms around her. "Well how about we go on that date now" I grinned. She nodded and kissed me.
Later at the park
I laid on the grass my head on Amu's lap. My eyes closed. She was running her hand through my hair slowly. "People are staring Amu" I said not opening my eyes. She kissed my head, and then continued to run her fingers through my hair. "Yeah I get a lot of stares these days. Now that it's starting to show" she said. I sat up and looked at her. "Well you do seem kind of younger then you actually are." I pointed out. She smiled. Maybe it you getting stared at not me" she said crossing her arms. I chuckled.
"From the girls maybe but the guys are looking at you." I said pulling her against my chest. "Nope they are definitely looking at you. Face it you have fan girls and boys." I laughed.
"Ok ok yes I have fan boys nothing big I'm sure you have some yourself" she snuggled closer smiling. "Hey Ikuto we should think of names!" she said happily. "You can pick the name." I didn't feel like dealing with names. "We each pick a name. I will pick a boy's name and you pick a girls ok." I sighed and nodded.
"Hey you brought your violin!" she said suddenly. I blinked just now realizing it was lying in the grass by my feet. "Want me to play it?" I asked. She nodded. "Yeah the baby book said that classical music is good for the baby's development!" she said. I blinked. "Hmm I guess I'll play something classical then." I pulled out my violin and started to tune it. Trying to decide what song to play.
"Ah I know just the thing" I rested the violin to my shoulder and lifted the bow. Then I started to play gavotte. Amu closed her eyes listening.
Amu's pov
I closed my eyes as he began to play. The song was happy and filled me with joy. The notes were pure, and beautiful. Around us people started to gather, Children dancing along with the joyful song. Everyone was smiling. Even Ikuto had a small smile on his lips. I started dancing with the children. Some other people were dancing as well. The song ended and Ikuto switched to another, the entertainer. Suddenly a green haired boy with a trumpet joined in followed by another green haired boy on the piano. I looked around and saw that they both looked very happy. The song switched again, this time a slower song that I didn't recognize. Around me couples started dancing. I smiled and watched them. The sound of the violin faltered then picked up again. This time it seemed to be more than one violin. I looked over and found that Ikuto was putting his violin away and a girl with red hair and a boy with blue hair were playing (=P la corda d'oro reference nyaa!)
Ikuto walked over to me and smiled. "Let's dance Amu" he said wrapping his arms around me. I put my arms around his neck. "I'm not that good at slow dancing" I admitted looking down to make sure I didn't step on his feet. I did twice. He smiled. "Don't look down look at me. Let me lead you" he said. I nodded and looked into his eyes. Letting him lead me. People formed a circle around us watching. I started blushing. Suddenly he dropped to one knee. My eyes widened.
"Amu I wanted to do this the right way." He said looking up at me. He reached inside his pocket and pulled out a small black box. I couldn't believe what was happening, and in front of all these people. He opened the box revealing a ring. It had a silver band imbedded with pink diamonds and a large blue diamond. I stared at it in awe. "Ikuto its beautiful." I whispered. He smiled and slipped it onto my finger. I placed my hand on his cheek and smiled. "Amu, will you marry me?" he asked looking up at me. I nodded speechless. Around us people began to clap. Ikuto stood up and kissed me.
Suddenly a sharp pain spread through my body. And I couldn't breathe. My eyes widened as I gasped for air. Ikuto put his hand on my shoulder. "Amu what wrong!?" Ikuto said. His voice sounded far away. Everything was spinning. Ikuto yelled something but I couldn't hear. I was in so much pain but I could do nothing but stand there my hand on my chest. The world became black. Warm arms embraced me then I was surrounded by cold.
