A/N: I have been getting soooo many ideas. Mostly for Rimahiko and Tadaya, though. x3 Anyways, I needed to write this because Rimahiko is awesome.
Disclaimer: I don't own Shugo Chara... Sorry.. DX
Rima was waiting for Nagihiko by the Middle School gate just like she always did. Every day she'd wait there for him. She usually arrived first, and in a matter of two or three minutes, Nagihiko would arrive. It was good that he didn't make her wait long, or else she'd bitch double.
Now that they were in Middle School, it wasn't much different. Except that Yaya wasn't there, and they switched classes. Rima had all of her classes with Nagihiko, and only had one with Amu and Tadase. There appeared to be some rumors that Rima and Nagihiko were dating, but they clearly weren't. Sure, they hang out together a lot, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they're dating, does it? Rima didn't think so.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Rima-chan!" Nagihiko said as he came into view.
Rima nodded in acknowledgment and entered the school with Nagihiko.
"Good morning, Mashiro-san, Fujisaki-kun," Tadase greeted the two.
"Hi," Rima said blandly.
"Morning, Hotori-kun," Nagihiko said, smiling warmly. "Where's Amu-chan?"
Tadase paused before looking around. "I'm not sure. She probably overslept again.."
Nagihiko laughed. "That's our Amu-chan!"
Amu ran in right once the bell started to ring. "Sorry I'm late!" She said, trying to catch her breath. She hurried into the classroom with Rima, Nagihiko, and Tadase. This was the only class when all four of them were together.
Rima stifled a yawn as she watched the teacher. She looked down at her desk when she saw Nagihiko put a piece of paper on it. It was a note. She opened it and read it slowly to make sure she wasn't misreading anything. It said that Nadeshiko was coming to visit because Amu was bugging the hell out of her that she hadn't seen her in almost a year. The only one who didn't know was Amu, besides Yaya. Rima looked at him. He still didn't trust her not to tell. She thought it was obvious. If she wanted to tell, she would've by now.
Rima sighed softly and replied simply, 'Okay...'
Nagihiko put away the note. He would tell Amu at the end of school. Tadase already knew.
Amu squealed at the end of school. "NADESHIKO'SCOMINGOHMYGODICAN'TWAIT!" Amu said in excitement.
"Yes, but unfortunately I have a game, so I won't be able to join you guys," Nagihiko said apologetically.
"Aww, I sometimes wonder if you ever see Nadeshiko," Amu laughed.
Nagihiko laughed nervously. "Y-Yeah.. Sorry.."
Rima smirked evilly at Nagihiko's hesitation.
"When is she coming?" Amu asked, changing to subject.
"Monday," Nagihiko answered.
"But today's only Friday," Amu frowned. "I have to wait two full days..." She pouted.
"Don't go all Yaya-chan on me! Monday will be here before you know it!" Nagihiko said with a reassuring smile.
"I sure hope so," Amu said, returning the smile.
Soon after, the former Guardians parted ways. Rima and Nagihiko walked together since they didn't live too far away from each other. Rima's parents now trusted her to walk home, as long as she was with a friend, which just happened to be Nagihiko.
"How long is she staying?" Rima asked curiously.
"A week," Nagihiko replied.
"A whole week of hiding your true self," Rima said, fake pity in her voice.
"You like that.. Don't you.." Nagihiko sweatdropped.
Rima scoffed. "What? Why would I ever like to see you suffer? You're close to being my best friend.. Besides Amu, of course. By the way, don't get too friendly with her. She's my best friend. Not yours, okay?"
Nagihiko nodded and saluted. "Yes, boss!" He didn't get it. Rima barely ever hung out with Amu any more. "Amu-chan suggested we go to the Royal Garden to meet up, since the Guardians won't be there. Yaya-chan will, though." He added.
"Fine with me," Rima yawned.
"Cool! Guardians reunion!" KusuKusu giggled uncontrolablly.
"Yay!" Rhythm said, giving a thumbs up.
Temari popped out and giggled softly. "I'll get to see everyone again. That's twice in one year."
Nagihiko felt bad about always keeping Temari concealed like this, but he did it for Amu. He felt like she still needed Nadeshiko, who was Amu's first real friend.
"Are you going to tell Amu this time?" Rima wondered out loud.
"I don't think so," Nagihiko said, looking down.
Rima was quiet.
"Well, see you on Monday," Nagihiko said to Rima as they reached her house.
"Bye," RIma said as she went into her house. She quickly walked past her bickering parents and up to her room.
Nagihiko walked on the empty streets to his house. "I wish I could tell her.. It feels so wrong lying to her.."
Rhythm and Temari looked at Nagihiko sympathetically the rest of the way home.
A/N: Yay for chapter 1! What'll happen when Nadeshiko comes?
