Find your way home
Recap: "I can't take it anymore Ikuto. I won't let you hurt Amu. I told you that if you didn't remember her I would take her from you and that's what I'm going to do. The only way you'll get me to hand her over is if you fight for her!" Yoru said glaring at Ikuto. Hikaru silently took the twins from Ikuto and carried them upstairs. Ikuto smirked.
"Fine if that's what Amu wants" he said his eyes meeting mine.
[Normal pov]
"I…Ikuto. Do you remember?" amu stuttered staring at Ikuto. Yoru lunged forward drawing his fist back. Ikuto ducked down and shot forward. His shoulder connected with Yoru's chest. Ikuto brought his fist up and slammed into Yoru's stomach. Yoru's fist shot forward and hit Ikuto's cheek. Ikuto brought his knee up into Yoru's stomach. Yoru went to punch Ikuto again but he caught his fist, twisting his arm behind his back.
"You can't beat me Yoru. I've always been faster than you." Ikuto said dodging one of Yoru's punches.
"I've always been stronger than you" he said punching Yoru in the face and sending him into the table. Amu covered her mouth trying not to scream. This wasn't what she wanted. She didn't want them to fight. They're brothers they shouldn't fight like this.
"I won't lose to you Ikuto" Yoru yelled jumping at his older brother. Ikuto was slammed into the wall his head jerked back. Blood from his old wounds was coming through his shirt. Tears streamed down Amu's face as she watched the man she loved and the man who she considered a brother fought over her. She wanted to stop them but didn't know if she could.
The two brothers continued fighting until they could barely stand. Finally Ikuto punched Yoru in the face causing him to fall back unconscious. Ikuto glared over at Amu and stumbled over to her. He reached his hand towards Amu. The angry look on his face caused her to flinch. His gaze softened and he pulled her against his chest.
"Don't you ever let any man other than me kiss you. Not even my kid brother" he said before kissing her. Amu blushed and wrapped her arms around his neck, she was crying.
"Why are you crying now? Silly girl everything is all right" he said slumping down into a chair. Amu pushed his hair out of his face and kissed his forehead. She was still crying when Hikaru walked in.
"I called Nikaido-san he'll be here in a few hours. Hopefully the little first aid I know will hold Ikuto together until he gets here" Hikaru said setting the first aid kit he was holding on the table. Amu helped him move Yoru to the couch and then carefully pulled Ikuto's shirt off of him. A few of his wounds had opened and he was starting to feel dizzy.
"Amu Chan hold his head still we don't want anything else to get messed up." Hikaru said as he began to bandage Ikuto's wounds. Amu placed her hands on either side of Ikuto's head and held it still.
"You're not planning to do that till Nikaido comes are you?" Ikuto asked placing his hands on Amu's. She blushed.
"Well what if something happens then I don't know what I would do" Amu said quickly.
"Trust me Amu you don't have to worry. My head is fine. I won't forget you" Ikuto said pulling Amu onto his lap. Amu blushed and looked away from him.
"Jeez Ikuto your injured and your still thinking those kinds of things aren't you!" She said standing up and crossing her arms. Ikuto chuckled and smirked up at her, causing her to blush and storm out of the room. Ikuto laughed then clutched his stomach in pain.
Amu leaned against the door smiling. She wouldn't admit it but she was so happy she could cry.
"Mama is daddy and uncle Yoru ok?" Akiko and Akira asked. They were standing at the foot of the stairs holding hands.
"Yeah there both gonna be just fine. Hey do you guys wanna see Japan?" Amu asked picking up the twins they both nodded and snuggled against them. Amu laughed and carried them into where Ikuto was.
"Ah Akira, Akiko come here" Ikuto said smiling. He held out his arms, the twins practically jumped into him. He cringed in pain but still smiled. Amu leaned against the wall and watched him as he played with them.
"Amu, you're going to stay with me forever right. You'll come back to Japan with me right Amu" Ikuto said looking up at her. Amu looked into his midnight blue eyes as though she was hoping to find an answer in them.
[Amu's pov]
As i looked into his eyes i remembered everything we had been through.
***
"Hinamori-San please take out your head phones" the teacher said. The other student looked around wondering who Hinamori-San was. I just pulled out my headphones and put them away. There was a new student standing at the front of the class. He had midnight blue hair and dark blue eyes. All the girls stared at him in awe. I looked at the front of the room and uncaring expression on my face. The boy looked from face to face and his eyes rested on mine. For a moment he seemed to notice something but then he looked away. i just looked down. This boy couldn't be the one who was going to save me, but what if he was. No, shook the thought from my head I wouldn't get my hopes up.
***
He jumped into the room and sat on the edge of my bed. "What's wrong little kitten" he was practically purring "cat got your tongue" he asked smirking again.
"You put up a mask to hide who you are" I stared at him the shock apparent on my face. I didn't even try to hide my emotions this time.
He walked towards me and places his hands against the wall on either side of me. He leaned in his mouth close to my ear. "You don't need to keep up your mask. I can see right through it. You're in pain you want to be free but you don't want to at the same time right" he said smirking. I stared at him from behind uncaring eyes.
***
"What's going on" I said my eyes wide. That boy knelt in front of me and… hugged me. I realized tears were streaming down my face. That's right they died didn't they wasn't I always alone. Why was I in so much pain? And why did I feel so safe with this boy whose name I didn't even know.
"Since it seems you don't pay attention to the teacher my name is Ikuto" he said still hugging me. I looked at Ran Miki and Suu they were standing around me smiling. Smiling why I was alive I cheated death they had to go and they should be mad at me.
"I think something is wrong with me" I muttered as I found myself leaning closer to Ikuto. He hugged me tighter.
***
"Amu it feels right when I'm with you. Please let me get close to you. I promise I won't leave you" he said. His eyes telling me he was sincere. Would he really not die on me if I allowed him to get close? No I can't I can't let him become close to me that would be betraying ran and the others. I promised them I would never be happy.
"Ikuto" I whispered. He smiled and wrapped his arms around me. I felt so safe and like for once I could be happy.
"Don't worry Amu you can be happy ok" he whispered in my ear. My face started to feel hot and for once I decided not to hide what I was feeling. My face turned pink. He smiled and hugged me again. "Amu I think I should bring you home people might wonder what's going on if you show up at class looking like you do now" I looked down at myself wondering why he said that. He chuckled and wiped a tear off my face. I just nodded still not sure I wanted to talk.
***
"I will do what I want to her. She's a murder she murdered her friends and her parents she deserves much worse than the way I treat her!" Ikuto glared at her, His eyes murderous. He hugged me tighter. "Get out of here and don't ever come near my Amu again." He growled. Auntie stumbled back away from him and ran out the door. I turned around and hugged Ikuto.
"Thank you Ikuto-kun" I muttered hiding my face in his shirt. Ikuto just sighed and laid his head on my shoulder.
***
What's the point of looking for him, I thought to myself. He left me. He doesn't want me around he thinks I'm cursed just like everyone else. My head was still throbbing it was lighter out now. Did I fall asleep? What time is it? I was soaked to the bone and shaking uncontrollably. So sleepy still and it hurts so much. Someone was running towards me. Everything was getting fuzzy. I could barely make out blue hair. "I…Ikuto" I managed to say before I blacked out.
***
I sat up and looked around. I was in a hospital room, alone. A name plate said Hinamori Amu. Amu is that my name? What happen to me? I walked over to the closet and opened it. Inside were a short black skirt and a black tank top and a grey jacket. It seemed like a boy's jacket. I took off the uncomfortable hospital closed and put on the clothes from the closet. I looked out the window and saw that everything was covered in a thick white powder. I pulled on a pair of stockings and some boots. I reached for the jacket. When I touched it I saw a flash of blue hair and a silver cross necklace. My hand went to my neck were the necklace hung.
"Amu you…." He began. I shook my head hugging him tighter. He sighed and placed his hand on mine. "I don't know why Ikuto but I don't want to let go of you. I'm afraid you might leave me. I don't know why I'm feeling like this." He turned around and hugged me. His lips moved along my jaw line, causing me to blush. He seemed to be taking in my scent. He nibbled at my ear. "I…Ikuto w…what are you doing." I stuttered. Suddenly he pressed his lips to mine kissing me hungrily. On instinct I reached up and tangled my fingers in his hair, kissing him back. His tongue ran over my lips and I granted him access. After a minute he pulled away a bit. Both of us were breathing heavily.
"Ikuto no one has to know that I'm out of the hospital yet, Right?" I whispered. He put his forehead against mine. "I guess your right" he said smiling at me. I pressed my lips against his again. He place one of his hands on the small of my back, pulling me closer. "Ikuto I want you to be my first" I said gasping for air. He stared at me shocked for a minute, and then smirked. He lifted me up bridal style and carried me back to his room.
***
"Maybe I should stop there for now" he said quietly. I looked at him my eyes wide. "I..My head it hurts Ikuto it hurts a lot." I sobbed. I pressed my fingers against my temples. Ikuto stroked my hair. "Close your eyes Amu it will help a bit" he reached out to touch my cheek but I slapped his hand away. "Don't touch me!" I said staring at him as though he had tried to hurt me. "It's your fault that I got hurt. You did it on purpose you ruined my life and…and" I started to cry harder and pulled the blanket over my head.
***
"Amu go with Yoru. Forget about me. As long as you don't remember me your pain won't come back. I'm fine with not being a part of your life. As long as you're happy, I'm happy. Live your life as best as you can. I promise you will never see me again. I'm going to do all that for you, because I love you more than anything in this world. So this is good bye Amu" when he finished he stepped towards me and pressed his lips against mine gently. It wasn't like the kiss we had shared the night before. There was none of the lust or hunger, only sorrow and good bye. Tears ran down my face as Ikuto pulled away. He wrapped his arms around me one last time and kissed the top of my head, taking in my scent my warmth, everything about me.
***
Ikuto
I know you told me to forget about you but I can't. Something has happened and right now I need you a lot. I miss you. Please Ikuto don't stay away from me anymore. You said you would stay away because it would make me happy. But now I will only be happy if I'm with you. I know that I had refused to forgive you but… well just come back Ikuto.
Love Amu
***
"Amu lets go to your house ok" he said. I stopped walking and looked up at him. He looked down at me. "Ikuto you won't leave me again will you?" I asked. He looked down at me his eyes wide. I stared up at him my eyes completely serious. Suddenly he hugged me, laying his cheek on my head. I stood there still waiting for an answer. "Amu…" he said after a moment. I looked up at him. His face was serious… and a bit red. Wait what Ikuto is blushing. My eyes widened. "I love you. I will never leave you again for as long as I live. I want you to marry me Amu will you?" he said. I hugged him knowing my face was turning red. He wasn't moving. Not breathing waiting for an answer. I nodded and he sighed in relief. "let's go Ikuto" I whispered. He nodded.
***
The house was huge, with white marble floors and a curved stair case. I looked at Ikuto my eyes wide. The house alone must have cost a fortune, but it was even filled with an antique furniture and art. He chuckled and wrapped his arms around me placing his hands on my stomach. "It's just like my dream house" I whispered remembering the essay I had written in the fourth grade. This house fit the description I had put down. I looked back at him. He had a grin on his face and I knew he knew something. "Ikuto this house how…" I said looking up at him. He smiled and pressed his lips against mine gently. I reached up tangling my hands in his soft blue hair. I held his face to mine refusing to let him pull away. He wrapped his arms around my waist.
***
Ikuto froze, standing next to Akira's bed was a person dressed completely in black. In his arms was Akira, his thin pink hair sticking out from the black.
"Put him down now" Ikuto growled at the man. He ran for the window and Ikuto jumped at him knocking him to the ground. Hikaru came out of nowhere and caught Akira before he hit the ground. I cried out and ran forward taking the baby and holding him close to my chest. Ikuto pinned the man to the ground.
"Why the hell did you try to take my son?!" Ikuto yelled at him ripping the mask from his face. "Your company you're all monsters! You killed my son! A life for a life it's only fair! You killed my son, I'll kill yours!" he yelled still trying to get to me and Akira. "Like hell you'll kill my son! Amu gets both the kids out of here!" Ikuto yelled at me still struggling to hold the man down. I picked up Akiko and backed out of the room. "Does she know? Does she know that you and that child are monsters from Easter!? Does she know, Black lynx!" he yelled after me. I froze and looked back. Hikaru pulled me away, from the room.
***
"You won't be leaving Amu" he said all emotion was gone from his face. He wasn't the Ikuto I love any more. I walked over to him angry. Next thing I knew I was slapping him. His face jerked to the side. For a moment he stood there frozen. Then he turned back to me his eyes filled with anger. He grabbed my wrists and dragged me back to the bed room. He pushed Hikaru out of the way and then threw me onto the bed. I rubbed my wrists. "Ikuto what the hell?!" I yelled at him. I tried to stand back up but he pushed me down. Behind him I noticed Nagihiko had showed up. He was helping Hikaru to his feet.
"Nagihiko!" I cried out. I reached out towards him but he looked away. Ikuto smirked. "Nagihiko close the door then put the twins back in their beds. Try to get them to sleep a bit" he ordered. My eyes widened in horror as Nagihiko obeyed. "Not him too" I whispered.
"Yes him too, and kukai and kairi. And most recently Rima and Yaya" he said coldly. I rolled onto my side facing away from him. I hugged his pillow, he noticed. "I'm still me Amu. I haven't changed. I just showed you who I truly am." He said as he lay next to me. He didn't touch me, probably afraid I would flinch again. "Just leave me alone please Ikuto" I begged. He didn't say anything but I felt the bed shift as he got up and left the room. I pulled my knees up to my chest and laid there crying. Wishing that he had stayed to comfort me but also glad that he did. I couldn't figure out what to think. Do I leave? Will he let me leave? Do I want to leave? Where will I go? What about the twins? Why did this have to happen? Why can't I think of him as my Ikuto?
***
"Amu don't do this to me" he begged his voice low. I glared at him.
"Why didn't you just tell me!? If you had I wouldn't be so mad at you! If you had just told me right away then maybe things would have been better!" I yelled. His striking blue eyes were sad and hurt but also angry.
"Damn it amu! This is exactly why I didn't tell you. I knew you would react this way if you knew. Amu I didn't tell you because I love you" he whispered. I stared at him; it wasn't often that he said that. He didn't usually show his emotions. I moved my face away from his and laid it on his shoulder, pressing my lips against his neck. He released his grip on my wrist. I slid my arms around his waist holding him tightly tears spilling out of my eyes. "I just don't know anymore Ikuto. I'm just not sure what to think." I whispered. He wrapped one arm around my shoulder and stroked my hair with the other. "Then don't think Amu" he whispered, kissing my neck.
***
"Amu it's been four years. This whole time I've been searching for you." He said quietly.
"I know" I whispered.
"I love you amu. Please don't keep pushing me away" he begged. I reached up and put my hand on his chest. Suddenly he lifted my chin and pressed his lips against mine. I seemed to lose control of my body as he kissed me. My arms reached up and wrapped around his neck pulling him closer.
Suddenly I realized what I was doing. I pushed him away and turned my back to him. He stared at me a hurt expression on his face. I did my best not to look at him.
"Amu lets go somewhere to talk about this." He said taking a step towards me. I bit my lip already regretting what I was about to do.
"No Ikuto lets not! I left you, alright. So just leave me alone already!" I yelled at him. He stared at me his eyes wide. It's best for the twins. I held out his jacket and waited for him to take it. He stood there staring at me his eyes wide as he tried to understand what I had said.
"Keep it" he muttered suddenly. Then he walked off his hands in his pockets. I turned around and closed my eyes hoping I wouldn't start crying before he was gone.
"Amu I love you" he called over his shoulder. I felt a sharp pain in my chest as though I had just been stabbed but I knew what I was doing was right. Wasn't it?
***
I leaned against the railing and looked out at the breathtaking view of Paris. Ikuto stood right behind me his hands on the railing on either side of me. I smiled and leaned back against him letting his body warm me. He leaned down his lips brushing softly against my neck, and his arms encircling my body holding me close. I shuddered as I felt his hair tickle the back of my neck.
"Okay Ikuto lets go home. Let's go home together, as a family." I said tears ran down my cheeks. Ikuto smiled and stood up setting the twins down. I jumped into his arms crying. He held me tightly.
"let's be a family again" he whispered I just nodded unable to speak.
