I sigh as I plop on my bed. Why did Ikuto have to leave me!! I've been waiting for him for 4 years already!!! I'm 16 now and he still hasn't come. I'd been sending him texts every now and then but he never replies. Did he forget about me? No Ikuto wouldn't do that! Right? Ugh I'm so confused and angry and sad and so many emotions. I just want Ikuto to come back. Why? Why do I want Ikuto to come back? Well that's a good question. I've asked myself that question for a long time and after a while I started to figure it out. I was in love with Ikuto! Yes me, Amu Hinamori, am in love with Ikuto Tsukiyomi! Yes I've imagined our wedding and how my name would sound with his and how my last name would be changed to his and how we'd live happily ever after and start a family of our own but who am I kidding Ikuto probably won't come back for me like he'd promised. Am I a fool to believe he would? I sit up and notice I had started crying. I sigh again and stand up. My charas had left me. Rima was still here and so was Tadase and Yaya but they were just my friends. I wish Ikuto could be here then my life would be complete. I walk out onto my balcony and feel the nice warm summer breeze blow around my hair. I breathe it in. "Ahhh, it's perfect outside!" I say as I smile. Normally with my charas around I wouldn't be saying stuff like this but now that they have gone I draw, am cheerful (most of the time, when I'm not thinking of Ikuto.) and bake a lot. I guess in a way they did become part of me. Suddenly a strong breeze rushes by and something blows on my face. "Ack!" I say as I peel it off my face. I look at it. It was a piece of paper. It was folded in a square. "Hmmm I wonder what it is." I say aloud. I slowly start to unfold it and see writing scribbled across it. "What's this?" I ask myself out loud. I had gotten so use to my charas that I still talk to myself expecting them to respond back. I start to read the note. "Yo, Its a nice night out. Wish I could be spending it with you. I wish for a lot of things. Like I wish to smell your strawberry scent or to see your strawberry pink colored hair. Or to look in those deep golden orbs of yours. Don't worry I'm not a stalker I just miss you. I want so badly to be with you right now but soon enough I will be there with you. That is if you follow my instructions correctly. Now what I want you to do is tomorrow at 3:00 I want you to go to the park with two ice creams in your hand. Thanks for reading see you soon my Amu." I stare at it. "W-What!!??" I screech. I look around but see no one. I sigh and shake my head. "This note was probably garbage from someone else.... But it said my name!?" I contemplate with myself. I sigh frustratedly and go back inside and go to bed. When I wake up I look at the note and sigh. Should I go? I look at the time and notice I had 15 minutes to get to work. I gasp and jump out of my bed. I hate working on Saturdays!!! I rush to put on my clothes and rush out the door with a piece of toast hanging from my mouth. I burst through the doors and get a few glares from the costumers. I wince and go behind the counter to start taking orders. I work all day and at 2:55 I get done working. I think back to the note and sigh. Soon I find myself at the park. Why did I come? I don't really know that myself. I had bought to ice cream cones, one chocolate and one vanilla. Who knows, this stalker could be nice!!! I sigh and sit down at the bench. This reminds me of when I went on a date with Tadase and Ikuto interrupted it by giving me an indirect kiss with my ice cream after I had fell on him, and in front of Tadase but I don't really care about that now I just like the fact I was with Ikuto. I sigh in a daze. The sun enveloped me in its warmth making me tired from today's work. I yawn and close my eyes, soaking in the moment. Maybe a little nap couldn't hurt. I don't care if people stare at me, this moment was too good. If only Ikuto could be here with me... when I wake up I look down and notice my ice cream cones were gone. Instead of the ice cream cones there was a note. I opened it. The darkening sky making it hard to read. "Have a nice nap? Your sleeping face is very cute, as always. Anyways, thanks for completing the first instruction. (I love chocolate, thanks!) I took your ice cream and couldn't help but kiss your cheek as well, don't worry I didn't violate you at all in anyway besides a kiss on the cheek. Anyways, the next instruction I'm going to give you is to go buy a Takyi. Then go to your room and eat it from the tail to the head. ;) make sure to sit on the floor though! Thanks, see you soon my Strawberry!" I stare at it shocked. This sounds like Ikuto!!! But could it really be him. Whatever I guess the only way to find out who it is, is to complete the instructions. I sigh and walk to the store where I buy a takyi. Once I do I go home and eat it from the tail to the head while sitting on my floor, hahahaha just like Ikuto does!!! I feel like a cat! Nya Nya! I giggle and finish the takyi. After that I fall alseep. When I wake up my phone is ringing. I answer it with a groggy voice. "Hello?" I ask. "Amu did you forget about meeting us at the park today!!?" An angry Rima yelled. I sighed, crap I completely forgot!! Stupid person who is writing these notes, they got me distracted. "Sorry, I'll be there in 15 minutes." I say still a little sleepy. I hang up and walk over to my closet. I get dressed and brush my hair and teeth, then I head down and grab some toast. After that I head out the door. I get to the park and see Tadase, Rima, and Yaya sitting at a table. I walk over with a smile. "Hey, sorry I was late I had a weird day yesterday..." I say, thinking back to yesterday and the notes. "It's alright Hinamori-san." Tadase says, smiling at me. I return the gesture and sit down next to Yaya. She hugs me tightly. "Amu-chii you took forever!!" She whined. I laughed. "Sorry I was busy, I've been getting these weird notes telling me what to do and so I've been doing what the notes say." I say. Yaya lets go and shrugs. "Sounds fun!" She says. Rima stays quiet. "Well do you know who is writing these notes?" Tadase asked. I shake my head. "No." I say. "Well be careful Amu, it could be a perverted stalker!" Rima warned. I nodded. "Don't worry I am!" I say. "Do you have any idea who it is?" Yaya asked. I shook my head. I didn't want to tell them I thought it was Ikuto, they might think I'm delusional!! Tadase nods and we talk about other things. I wave goodbye to my friends. We laughed a lot but we decided to hang out tomorrow at school. I started walking home when I suddenly heard a violin playing. My eyes widened and my heart pounded. I ran after the sound and came to the new amusement park that the old one use to be at... The one wher me and Ikuto had our date... I tilted my head. No body was here. "That's weird I thought I heard someone playing a violin here." I say aloud, even though nobody was listening. Suddenly a piece of paper comes flying across the ground. I stomped on it and picked it up. I unfolded it and then read it. "Have fun with your friends? I see that little prince still hangs around with you. You've probably wondered who I am. Well follow my notes and you'll find out soon. Hope you enjoyed your day so far. Anyway, enjoy yourself at the amusement park and don't forget to ride the tea cups and merry-go-round! Have fun!! ;)" I sigh. The person wanted me to play at the amusement park!? "But that's kiddish!!" I complain, hoping whoever wrote this was watching me. I stalk over to the tea cups and remember me and Ikuto squeezed in there together. I smile and get in. It spins me around and I start laughing. Once that's over with I go to the merry-go-round and ride it. Afterward I start to ride anything and everything else. By night time I finally had to stop myself. I giggled and walked home. When I got home I had another note on my bed. "I think you enjoyed yourself a little too much. I thought you said it was kiddish? Your too funny Amu-koi! Have you figured out who I am yet? Come on, you must have a clue on who I am! Think about it, you had two ice creams in the place where I ruined your date, you had a takyi from the tail to head like a cat eats a fish, and then then I played for you before you went crazy for the amusement park... any of this ringing a bell? Or are you still to dense to figure it out yet? Just say my name and I'm there. Sweet dreams Amu." My eyes widen. All those notes, they took me to places and memories that I had done with Ikuto! Could this mystery person really be Ikuto?! No it couldn't be!! But who else knew about those times? And it said that he ruined my date!!! "SO ITS IKUTO!!!" I shout. "Congratulations Amu!!" I hear someone say behind me. I turn around quickly and see Ikuto standing there. I stare at him, completely dumbfounded. No way!!! ITS ACTUALLY IKUTO!!! "What's wrong Amu?" He smirks. I snap out of my daze and run up to him. I plow into him and hug him. "Whoa!" Ikuto says, almost falling over from me plowing into him. "Ikuto I missed you so much!!!" I say, hugging him and nuzzling my face into his chest. He smelled like men shampoo. It smelled so good, in my opinion anyways. Ikuto chuckled. "You missed me that much?" He asked. I pulled away just enough so that I could look up at him. "Yes! Stupid Neko! You have no idea how lonely I've been without you!" I say as I leaned up on my tiptoe and gave him a big passionate kiss on the lips. When I pulled away Ikuto smirked. "Bold are we?" He asked. I blushed. "Maybe..." I said shyly as I ran my hands through his blue hair. He smiled. "I love you Amu!" He said. I smiled hugely, Ikuto is back and he loves me still. "I love you so much too Ikuto!!!" I shouted happily as I jumped up on him, knocking him down. He laughs and hugged me back. I smiled contently. "Thanks for the notes..."
