I DONT OWN SHUGO CHARA
THORNS OF BETRAYAL:
Chapter 7- Turning point
(Amu pov)
I woke up to find myself wrapped in a sleeping Ikuto's arms my neck hurt. Thats when last night came back to me. I pulled away from him a bit scared and went to go change when I finished Ikuto was awake. "Amu.." I jumped slightly when he spoke, I knew he noticed.
" Amu.. I'm sorry I swear I'll never do it again you believe me right?" His eyes were begging me and despite not believing it I nodded and faked a smile. After he left my friend Nagi called asking if I could hang out I agreed. It was only after I hung up that I remembered I had to cover my neck up I wore a scarf hoping Nagi wouldn't question it.
He came over and we talked just like old times, however when I mentioned Ikuto's name I noticed his eyes grew angry. I was puzzled but ignored it. However when he slamned his cup down so hard it broke I jumped in fear.
I shook my head I couldn't ever be afraid of my best friend. I rushed to clean the mess up when he grabbed my arm. I was surprised , "Nagi? What are you doing?" He pulled me close hugging me tight to him my eyes widened slightly he was acting strange.
"Amu, Ikuto will just hurt you in the end. Wouldn't you rather be with someone who would never hurt you?" His arms tightened around me, and thats when I felt dumb. "Nagi.." He cut me off by forcefully kissing me I found myself to shocked to move.
His lips wouldn't leave mine and I found myself kissing back yet in my mind I saw Ikuto. " I have waited for a long time and I won't give up on you." With that he left leaving me shocked and jumbled up with emotions. I saw Ikuto I love Ikuto yet I kissed back, It's true Ikuto and I constantly hurt eachother and betray one anothers trust.
Yet we can also depend on eachother and can't be apart from one another for long. We drive eachother mad yet at the same time bring each other sanity. Yet with Nagi I could be sure even if I don't love him like that. I was lost and confused yet I was never one to take the easy road, maybe in the end that's why I find myself hurt.
Ikuto and I are like masochist and sadist we hurt eachother yet always in the end stick around. Maybe just maybe I'ts time to try something new, I felt as if I were in a book and this was the turning point. Yet I found myself still in a battle with my self closing my eyes I pictured both Nagi and Ikuto but in the end only found my self more confused. Sighing, I decided if this was what love was about maybe in all truth I wasn't ready for it at all.
Then again it never feels as if we have a choice when it comes to falling in love. One thing I knew for sure, what I felt for Ikuto was stronger than what I felt for Nagi. Though maybe I could be happier with Nagi, I just didn't know if my heart would be able to take leaving Ikuto. After all Ikuto is what drove me to live wether it was wishing to be with him or wishing to kill him in the end it was all about him.
He was my beginning and I was certain in the end we would be the death of eachother. I just couldn't see life without him in it.
(Nagi pov)
I knew she didn't love me the way I loved her yet I couldn't give up. No matter how long I had tried or how many times I tried, I just couldn't leave her alone. My body soul and mind all longed for her and her alone. I would not give up and I would not allow Ikuto to get in the way, it was clear to me that all he would do is bring her pain.
I did not have a doubt in my mind that he loved her but in the end I wouldn't see her suffer because of him. I knew I had to get rid of him for good if there was ever gonna be a chance for me to be with the one I loved. Tsukasa tried to talk me out of it but in the end promissed he would stay out of this fight.
I thanked him and left for a walk. Plans of Ikuto dying were the only thing on my mind.
