Recap:
"Well you better tell me from now on where you are, because from now on I going to go pick you up and take you to school and you can run away because I'm going to talk to your aunt about it as well." Ahiru's eyes widen with horror.
"You cannot do that you are not even my boyfriend to be doing that!" That is where Fakir smirked.
"That is what you think. Starting today you are my girlfriend if you say no then I can tell everyone your little secret you have." When she heard those words spill out of Fakir's mouth, her eyes widen like a deer caught in headlights. As for Fakir his smirk only got bigger then what it started.
End of recap:
O^O^^Ahiru's POV^^O^O
I was frozen I did not know what to do he knows. He knows that I turn into a DUCK! How did this happen? I never showed myself in front of him. How could have I slipped up I have been careful my entire life! "Wha-what are you talking about? What secret will that be?" All Fakir did was just smirk at me and inched his face closer towards mine.
"You know what secret I am talking about…" I bit the inside of my bottom lip while his face kept on coming closer and closer. Then finally, I found my strength and placed my hands on his chest, pushed him away from me, and quickly took this chance to get up and head for the door. However, when I was opening the door a hand pushed it close and turned me around to face them.
"Where do you think you are going we are not finishing here?" I tried to push Fakir away again but he held my hands together making me vulnerable. I tried to get my hands free only to fail miserably.
"Fakir let go…If we do not get to class before the bell rings then we are going to get in trouble." I looked at him straight in his eyes. He stared back at me for three more minutes and finally he let go of my hands. I rubbed them and was about to talk back to him, but before I could utter a word I was up in the air and was thrown over his shoulder.
"AH! FAKIR PUT ME DOWN!" I was pounding on his back telling him to put me down I really did not want to walk into the class on his shoulder making the people get the wrong idea especial Mytho.
"Not a chance." I let out a heavy sigh and just gave up I knew I was not going to get down any time soon. After five more minutes, I felt we stopped. Next thing I hear was the sound of a door opening. My eyes widen again for like the third time today. I could feel stares coming from my classmates.
"Fakir….Ahiru…You two came back just in time. Now if you could Fakir Set down my student on the ground." Ha, do as she says Fakir. I waited for Fakir to set me down on the ground but it never came.
"I am sorry Ms. Angel but I cannot do that because Ahiru hurt her leg when rushing downs the stairs to get here to class." You liar! I could feel Angel raised an eyebrow.
"Really now? Well then in that case can you set her down there please?" He nodded his head and started to walk again. I bet you are wondering why I did not say anything…well because I knew if I say something then he is going to say something. And I really could not have that right now. Fakir placed me on the floor I looked at my surrounding and I notice I was at my corner where I would usually stand and pretend to sleep when in fact I listen to what is going on during the class. When I thought I would be able to relax Fakir took a seat right next to me and placed his hand over mine. I tried to pull it away from his grasp but every time I tried to move it, he griped it tighter and it made me wince. I look over the room, I see everyone staring at us, and the person that caught my attention was Mytho's face. His face expression made me feel like someone ripped something inside of me. His faced showed a mixture of pain hurt and sadness. Something I would never like to see on anyone. I just wanted to get up and leave the room but with Fakir's hold, I could not do anything. All I could do was hide my eyes with my bangs. The room was too quiet for my own good that is until there was a loud clap. Getting everyone's attention, everyone look up front and they saw Ms. Angel with her hands clams together and with a serious face.
"Okay class it's time to start with our stretches and since Ahiru is injured for the time being I will be the one leading you through your stretches." Everyone bit there bottom lips all expect Rue, Mytho and Fakir. The three did not know how she leads the stretches. Angel turns to look over towards where both Fakir and I were siting.
"That includes you as well Mr. Knight. So I expect you to be with your classmates I am sure Ahiru can take care of herself there." I feel Fakir grip a bit tighter however, it loosen when he got up. I took this chance to move farther away from Fakir and go to the corner of the wall. This did not go unnoticed from Angel and she told Fakir to go stand with the rest.
"Alright then…one, two, three, four." Angel started to do the stretches and the students were coping some already complaining but the ones that were having a hard time with the stretches were the three popular. I on the other hand just sat there thinking of an away to get Fakir to not say my secret without him blackmailing me.
The Curse to find True Love
Class was over now and Fakir was about to come over towards me to pick me up while I was just leading more and more into the wall as if trying to get away from him. However, that was not the case before he got a chance to touch me Angel called him out. "Fakir…Ahiru I want you two to stay I need to talk to you two." I let out a sigh of relief making my tense muscle loosen a bit. Once everyone was gone, Angel closed the door and locked it so that no one would interrupt us.
"Now then Fakir…Why did you lie to me that Ahiru got hurt when coming back to class…After knowing Ahiru since she was a baby I know how she is and she isn't clumsy when it comes to school." Since Angel said that, I took the chance, stood up, and ran towards her. Fakir did the same he stood up but did not run towards Angel.
"Ahiru what's going on?" I bit my lip and looked at her with sad eyes.
"He knows our secret…" Angel's eyes widen a bit, but they went back to normal and she went towards where Fakir was standing and circled him.
"He does now…So tell me Fakir what is it that you know about Ahiru?" I stood there still waiting for his answer.
"That she is Princess Tutu…" Both Angel's and my eyes widen.
"So you know about her cruse then…" He looks taken aback and looked at Angel then back at me.
"What cruse?" I looked at the glass wall and bit my lip. Great my fate is in the hands of an idoit!
"So you just know that much huh? I guess it's time you know since you know this much already." Angel turn to face me and I did to and I nodded.
"Come on then let's go to the café…" Angel looks outside the window and saw that it was almost sun set "…And we better go now." Angel started to walk towards the door and Ahiru did that same making Fakir follow behind. Both Angel and Ahiru were walking fast down the halls and down the stairs to get to Angel's car. Fakir was having a hard time keeping pace with the two but found a way to do so. The three made it to Angel's car Angel herself got in the driver's seat, Ahiru in the passenger's seat and Fakir took the back seat. As soon as everyone was in Angel quickly engines the car and speeded towards the café. They got there in five minutes flats with the speed that Angel was going at.
"Come on we need to get everyone to leave if we want to explain everything before sunset" Ahiru nodded and the two girls went inside the café and went straight to Amu while Fakir walked out of the car slowly he was not really use to fast driving so he was trying to calm down. Once he did that he looking inside the café and saw that it was completely empty while just a few seconds ago it was full with customers. Fakir walked inside and he saw the whole gang there some sitting and some standing looking at him with a blank expression.
"Fakir please takes a seat this is something you will need to sit down for." Amu was the first one to speak from everyone. Fakir nodded and sat right in front of Amu and Ikuto and right beside Ahiru.
"So Fakir…it seems that you know our Ahiru-chan's secret something that we all have kept really careful not to get leaked out…How is it that you were able to find out that she was princess Tutu?" Fakir looked at Amu right in her eyes and opened his mouth.
"The time when we were up in that building at night when the moon was full and I saw Princess Tutu again after so many years I remember her smile and when I was out with Ahiru that time in the theme park her smile just resembled so much to Tutu that I just guessed truly." Everyone blinked.
"So you're that Fakir Knight…The boy that fell in love with Ahiru when she was a little girl and was at the stage of Princess Tutu. To think that you still remembers her after so many years have passed by. Did you really fall in love with her or was it just a child's crush?" Ikuto spoke out with a stern voice.
"No it was not a silly child's crush I did love her and I still do…and when I finally found her once again I just did not want to lose her again…" Ikuto looked at his with his infamous poker face. While Kukai went up towards the table, where they were all sitting up and looked at Fakir with a hint of glares in his eyes.
"…But will you still love her even if you knew the truth about her?" Fakir looked at him with confusion in his eyes. Kukai was about to speak more when all of sudden a chair screeched everyone looked towards where it came from and they saw that Ahiru had stood up from her chair and she was breathing heavily. Her right hand was balled up into a fist and was on the center of her chest her eyes were closed and she looked like she was in pain.
"Amu…Ikuto…Do I have to show him? Can't I just live in the shadows like I have been throughout my whole life?" Amu looked over towards Ikuto and Ikuto towards Amu they both stood up and went over towards Ahiru. And embraced her into their arms.
"Okay Ahiru let's get you to bed them okay?" Amu said in a very motherly way.
"That's right sweetheart everything will be as it once was okay?" The two leaded Ahiru towards her room leaving everyone else there in the café. Once they were out of sight everyone out their attention towards Fakir.
"It's best if you forget what happen today and you stay as far away from Ahiru." Rima said. She was about to go get something when someone stopped her from doing so. Rima looked and saw it was Angel.
"Hold up Rima not just yet let's explain it to him just a little more to him." Rima crossed her arms and gave a little pout.
"Fine…" Angel gave her a little pat on her head soon Nagihiko appeared and took Rima over towards where the others were. Angel turned to face Fakir her smile gone by now all you saw was a blank expression.
"So tell me Fakir have you ever read the book The Cruse of the Ugly Duckling?" Fakir nodded his head.
"Yes I have but I never got a chance to finish it due to the fact that the last pages were ripped off…" Angel looked at him for a few minutes then she went towards where a portrait of Amu, Ikuto and Ahiru was she took it down and that where everyone was shocked.
"Wait…Angel…you can't be serious about this right…He can't know that much." Kukai called out trying to stop Angel from going any further. However, that was not the case Angel kept on going behind the painting was what looked like a built in safe. Angel looked towards the gang.
"Utau…open it you…and don't tell me that you don't know the safe code." Utau bit her bottom lip she did not want to open the safe. She was about to step forward when Kukai stopped her by grabbing her arm. Utau turned her head and saw Kukai shake his head Utau gave him a sad look but pulled her arm away from him and walked towards where Angel is and where the safe is. When Utau was in front of the safe she quickly pushed in the code to the safe then *click* the small door to the safe opened. Utau made her away back to where she was standing looking at her feet. Angel on the other had opened the door to the safe wider, took out what looked like an old book. She stared at it for a while and then turns to face Fakir into his eyes. She stood right in front of Fakir and placed the book on the table. Fakir looked at the cover; it was the same book he was reading a few days ago.
"Is this the book-" Angel cut him off before he finished his sentence.
"Yes it's the original book of The Cruse of the Ugly Duckling..." Fakir looked at Angel and then back to the book. He opened it to the last page he last read.
The Curse to find True Love
Seeing this the traveler was convinced that the girl was truly the Swan Princess. The yellow duck thought since that traveler loved her Princess side that he was going to expect her for who she is but she was wrong, completely wrong. The traveler thought she was a freak and that she should burn in hell. When hearing this the young girl's eyes widen and she was heartbroken. Since that day, each passing full moon the Swan Princess went back to the lake to dance her to death. When dance till her feet bleed she cried and cried for the traveler that did not expect her. So she decided that anyone that came to her lake and confessed there love to their lover then their first-born female child will be cursed as she once was many years ago. The Swan Princess knowing that the next person to have her curse will not find their true and will die just as she did…
Fakir's eyes widen when he finished reading the rest of the story he never thought that the story would end this way. He then looked up towards Angel and she had the same blank expression she had when she handed him the book. "So Ahiru will forever be living three lives…" Angel nodded.
"Yes that's right…" Angel took the book, places it back into the safe, and placed the picture back in it position.
"…But Ahiru does not know of this book and we wish to keep it that way. She only knows the torn out version and we would all like to keep it that way for her to keep believe that there is a happy conclusion for the Swan Princess." Angel turns to face Fakir straight into his eyes.
"So tell me now Fakir will you still want Ahiru to be your girlfriend after know that she is curse to forever be Princess Tutu, and the little yellow duck?" Fakir looked at her eyes and then at everyone else.
"If you can't then I suggest that you never come near Ahiru and transfer classes and take your friends with you." Spoke out a deep voice everyone turn to see it was Ikuto next to Ikuto was Amu.
"I'm afraid Ikuto is right…If you can't accept Ahiru like she is now Fakir then its best if you just stay away from her. We don't want her to suffer anymore not again." Fakir looked at the young couple and then closed his eyes letting out a heavy sigh.
"I'm sorry to say Mr. and Mrs. Tsukiyomi but I can't stay away from your niece…She's to addicting for me to stay away even with the curse. However, that is not what she thinks of me. So I guess I have to change her mind now huh?" A small smile formed onto Amu's, Ikuto's and Angel's lips while the other were smiling like fools and cheering to see that a boy has finally come to love Ahiru how she is curse and all. However, Angel smile soon faded and she went up to Fakir.
"So just because your my student don't think that I won't hurt you if I find out that you played with my favorite little girl got it. Better hope I don't find out first because with me it's much worst then with the guys." Fakir gulped when he heard that coming out of his teacher's mouth, but nonetheless he nodded his head understanding what she was saying.
"Good boy. Now then it's getting late I gave your family a call before we left the school telling them that you will be staying over at the Tsukiyomi's house because of a 'dance project' that I gave you and Ahiru." Angel then turns to face both Ikuto and Amu.
"I hope you don't mind I told them that." Amu shook her head.
"No we don't mind its fine since he knows already. Utau can you take him to one of the guest rooms please. Angel-chan you're staying over to right?" Amu asked Angel, while Angel nodded her head.
"Yes I will so I'll be heading to my room already goodnight everyone." Angel started to head towards the stair.
"Goodnight." Everyone else responded to Angel. Utau then went toward Fakir.
"Come on I'll take you to your room." Fakir nodded and followed Utau. The two passed by the Ikuto and Amu.
"Goodnight Mr. and Mrs. Tsukiyomi." Amu gave him a smile and Ikuto have him a tired smile.
"Goodnight Fakir." The young couple responded and with that, both Utau and Fakir disappeared into the darkness of the upper floor. From there everyone else went to his or her room it has been a long night and they needed their rest since tomorrow was going too busy as always. They truly need to open up another café they had enough money to open up as many as they wish but they wanted to stay the same small café they have always been. However, they were planning to expand the shop so that their customers will not be so crowded.
The Curse to find True Love
It was finally morning and our Swan Princess was just waking up her eyes flutter open only to have her ocean blue eyes to meet forest green eyes. Her eyes widen when she saw the eyes glaring at her. "Wake up idoit." When she heard that voice, she let out a screeching scream making Fakir cover his ears.
"God dammit women shut up your making my ears bleed." Ahiru had back up to the corner of her bed.
"Wha-what are yo-you doing here in my room?" Fakir looked towards where Ahiru was and then gave her a blank face.
"I came to pick you up. Your aunt told me to wake you up since it's almost late for school." Fakir then threw her, her uniform and headed for the door.
"So hurry up and changed I'll wait for you down stairs." And with that Fakir left Ahiru there in her room. As for Ahiru, she was to dumbfound that she did not know wat to do. What just happen? Was Fakir still here after finding out what I am? Or was that all a dream? Ahiru shook the idea out of her head and started to change into her uniform. Once she was finished, she headed down stair where Fakir was waiting for her just as he said to her. He was talking to Amu and Ikuto, but Ahiru could not catch on, on what they were talking about. Therefore, to get their attention she cleared her throat. The three turn to look where the noise came from and they saw Ahiru standing at the bottom of the stairs.
"Oh Ahiru, good morning sweetheart how are you feeling?" Ahiru blinked at few times and then answered.
"I'm feeling fine why do you ask Amu?" Amu gave her a small smile.
"Well you came home with a high fever. If it weren't for Fakir here I don't know what would have happen to you." Ikuto responded this time. Ahiru was taken aback when she heard this. A fever…but how it has been years since I had a fever…Maybe that are why I dreamt that wired dream.
"I see…" Amu came up to Ahiru and cupped her cheek.
"You don't remember anything do you dear?" Ahiru shook her head. Amu gave her a small smile.
"It's okay dear as long as your fine on that's what counts right?" Ahiru nodded and gave Amu a small smile.
"Good…Now then you and Fakir should get going if you want to get to school on time." Amu said while pushing both Ahiru and Fakir out the door.
"Have a good time at school sweetheart." Ikuto said and then slam the door close. Earning a sweat drop from the two teenagers.
"Come on we only have ten minutes to get to class." Fakir said while he started too walked towards the school. Ahiru nodded and did the same walking side by side with him. While they were walking, Ahiru took some chances to glance at him. Fakir knew she was staring at him but when she kept on doing it started to tick him off.
"What?" Fakir finally asked making Ahiru look up forward.
"Come on say it you've been itching to tell me since you kept on glancing at me the whole me." Ahiru bit her bottom lip and looked at Fakir from the corner of her eyes.
"Well I was wondering if it was all a dream last night I mean." Fakir knew what she was talking about but he did not want her to know that just yet so what he did was raised an eyebrow.
"What are you talking about?" Ahiru then stopped walking still face forward. Fakir stopped to but he turn to face Ahiru.
"Don't lie I know it wasn't a dream you found out didn't you?" Her bangs were covering her eyes. Fakir kept his face composed not letting his face slip up.
"What are you talking about? Find out what?" Ahiru looked up and faced him with a glare.
"Don't play stupid FAKIR! You know very well what I'm talking about." Ahiru was getting mad by each passing second. However, Fakir did not change his face expression he looked at for a good five seconds and then he turned around and started to walk again.
"You're crazy…you better hurry up we're already late you don't want to get more in trouble with the teacher." Ahiru gritted her teeth but let the conversation go for now and she started to walk towards school knowing that Fakir was right she didn't want to get ore in trouble then what she was already with getting to class late.
"I just hope it was a dream and not reality…" Ahiru whispered to herself but to her luck it was not, it was in fact reality.
Angel-chan: There *smiles*and it is longer than the last one too.
Fakir: Wow, I do not care…
Angel-chan: Fakir you are an ass.
Ahiru: I like it Angel-chan
Angel-chan: aw~ thank you Ahiru
