HELLO EVERYONE! Sorry for taking so long again! I had a bunch of tests this week and I had to study A LOT and now I'm sick!!! Anyway, the story is finished so I thought I would write a little one-shot. There WILL BE a sequel to the story and I assure you it will come SOON. Now, on to the one-shot!

Amu was sleeping soundly in her bed one winter night after a long day of purifying X-eggs. There had been an increase in them lately and it was taking it was tuff on Amu and the rest of the guardians. They didn't stop purifying them because every now and then they would see the embryo.

Amu suddenly shivered violently in her sleep. It had gotten cold in her room but she stayed asleep. A boy had jumped onto her balcony and went into her room. It was the one who was making all the X-eggs. He knelt beside her bed and patted her head.

"I'm sorry Amu" was all he said softly but Amu stirred from her sleep.

The boy leaped back onto her balcony, trying to keep out of sight, but he wasn't fast enough.

"Ikuto?" Amu yawned heavily. "What are you doing here?" She was starting to become more awake.

"Nothing." He obviously wasn't going to say more.

Ikuto turned to jump off of the balcony but Amu jumped out of bed and grabbed his sleeve.

"Wait!"

He turned to face her but she didn't say anything at first. He started to get impatient and pulled him arm away. He turned to jump again but she finally spoke.

"U-Um I was wondering if you knew something about all the X-eggs."

Ikuto sighed at the question because he knew that if he told her the truth then she would hate him but if he lied then he would keep making them thus making her unbearably tired. He decided that her hating him was better than her being hurt because she was too tired to move.

"Yea. I was told to make them to bring out the embryo." He shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't care.

"What? Then you were he cause of all of this!?"

"Here it comes." Ikuto thought but Amu didn't continue.

He looked up to look at her face and it shocked him. Amu knew that Easter made him do a lot of horrible things and she felt sorry for him. Her face said that she was ready to cry. Ikuto didn't know what to say to her. He didn't understand why she was upset. He walked over and sat on her bed in frustration. Amu followed after him and stood in front of him. Suddenly he stood up and hugged her close to him. She struggled for a minute but he would let her go.

"I'm sorry Amu." He said for a second time.

Amu buried her face in his chest and her tears spilled over. Ikuto could feel his shirt getting wet and he hugged her tighter.

"I love you." He told her and pulled away to look at her tear stained face.

She was shocked at his confession but her tears still fell. He pulled her close again and bent down to press his lips to hers. She didn't fight back but kissed him back. It was soft and warm and she never wanted it to end but Ikuto pulled back and looked at her for a second before walking back out to her balcony. He turned back at her for one last time before jumping away, disappearing into the night.

Thanks for reading! Tell me what you think about this one-shot please! And please be patient for the sequel! (^-^)
