Nagihiko's POV

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

Hotori-kun, Rima-chan, Kukai, and I were sitting in the middle school cafeteria.

"Guys, Amu called and said she'll be here in a few minutes." said Rima. Her voice is so cute. I wanted to say something that was on my mind.

"Guys,…..I don't think we should hide the situation with contacting Ikuto secretly without letting Amu-chan know any longer now." I said. I don't feel right keeping things from my friends. Especially Amu, since I'm still hiding that secret. I have to tell her sooner or later.

"But Ikuto-kun said to keep it from Amu until she's ready." said Rima. She had a point there. But I think Amu-chan is ready to know.

"I think Amu-chan is ready." said Hotori-kun as if he was reading my mind. Freaky.

"Right, Hinamori can handle it." said Kukai.

"Everyone!" I heard a voice behind me yell. We all looked behind us. It's time.

Amu's POV

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

"Everyone!" I yelled enough that they could hear me. They all tuned their heads.

"Yo! Hinamori!" yelled Kukai. I finally got to the table where they were at.

"Hey! Kukai! I haven't seen you in so long!" I said, smiling. Nagihiko and Tadase-kun were wearing the boy's middle school uniforms like Kukai. Tadase looks so cute! The girls had a new uniform too. And I still wore it the "Cool & Spicy" way. I sighed.

"What is it, Amu-chan?" asked Tadase-kun.

"I-It's nothing. It's just that…I'm still called "Cool & Spicy". Seems like it's permanent, you know?" I said. Well, of course they don't know. They're not called something that's not your real character.

"Daichi! Long time, no see!" I heard Ran saying to Kukai's shugo chara.

"How the new middle school uniforms kickin' in, Hinamori?" asked Kukai. I looked down at my middle school uniform. I think it's changed a lot since my elementary one. I kept my elementary one in my closet just to remember the old times. The middle school uniform was blue now. I still wore it the same way though. But some things changed. The tag I used to wear on my left arm is now white, my undershirt is now gray, I have a blue tie, I where a black x clip instead of a red one, and I wear blue leg warmers instead of red ones. Too much blue doesn't work with red. I still wear my belt the same way. You know, still the "Cool & Spicy" act.

"I think I'm getting the hang of it." I really like this uniform but my special and favorite one will always be my elementary school one because of everyone's memories. Tadase-kun, Nadeshiko, Yaya, Kukai, Nagihiko, Rima, Kairi, everyone. Elementary was where I could meet everyone. I put my school bag down beside my seat and my shugo chara pouch on the table.

"Uh…Rima can I talk to you. Alone." I heard Nagihiko ask Rima.

"….sure." Rima answered. They both sat up from our table by the window and walked towards the cafeteria door.

"What was that about?" I asked, sighing and closing my eyes. I was tired. I woke up pretty late this morning because my stupid alarm clock didn't wake me up. I opened one eye to see everybody looking at me, tense.

"….what's wrong?" I asked, hesitantly.

"Amu-chan." Tadase-kun said seriousness in his voice. He only sounded this serious whenever Ikuto came up and yelled, "Tsukiyomi Ikuto!". Now I know something is up.

"….what?" I asked, kind of afraid to know what's up. I think they saw that I looked freaked out.

"We...uh...have to tell you something." said Kukai. Man, how I wish Yaya was here. She would lighten the mood up in one minute with one of her tantrums. I closed my eyes and bit my lip preparing for the worst.

"Yeah? What is it?" I asked, eyes still closed and still biting my lip. I took a deep breath. I opened my eyes and saw everyone with sad faces. What's wrong? It can't be that bad. I looked over at our charas. They're faces were sad too. Except my charas. Their expressions were clueless.

"It's about Tsukiyomi Ikuto-niisan." said Tadase-kun. I freezed. Then twitched. They all knew that Ikuto had left. I missed him and they knew that Ikuto was a touchy subject for me. But I still lived happily believing he'll come back. I looked over at Tadase-kun's face hoping it was news that Ikuto is coming back. But they all had sad faces....that can't be it. Did...did something bad happen to Ikuto? I panicked, but kept the cool and spicy facade on.

"We....we've been contacting..Ikuto behind your back." said Nagihiko coming back. What? Why? They know I missed Ikuto so much, all these months and they didn't tell me? I felt like crying. I felt like I was being betryed. I got up from the table with my bangs covering my eyes. I picked up my pouch and my bag.

"Ran, Miki, Suu, Dia...." I said in a quiet voice.

"We're sorry." said Rima. Even Rima did this to me!! And Tadase-kun!! Why? Why did they do this? I ran to the door, opened it and ran outside.

"Amu-chan!" I heard my charas and friends say. My charas started racing towards me.

BUMP

The last thought I had was, Why? before I lost conscious.
