Previously...

Crystal and Ikuto met at the airport. Ikuto asked, "Are you ready?". "Yeah," Crystal replied. "WAIT! WAIT! WAIT!", a voice yelled. Crystal and Ikuto turned around. They found Amu, Tadase, Rima, Nagihiko, and Utau running to them. "Guys!", Crystal yelled. When they stopped in front of them, Crystal looked down and found out that they had luggage. Crystal asked, "Why do you have luggage?". Everyone was silent. "No way..YOU"RE COMING WITH US?!", Crystal snapped. Everyone nodded with a smile. After that, Crystal and Ikuto looked at each other, surprised.

The New Girl (Shugo Chara)

Chapter 1 - Bonjour! Welcome to Paris!

In the airplane, Crystal was in her seat, looking through the window, and sighed. It has been 6 hours ever since the departure. Crystal was incredibly bored. Next to her, Ikuto was going over notes from his music book, a book he bought during his days in Paris. He looked at Crystal, who sighed with her Shugo Charas. Ikuto made a smirk and closed his book.

"Are you going to keep sighing like that until we reach Paris?", Ikuto said as he looked at her. "I have nothing to do. I didn't bring anything I can do on board! I've been trying to see some landscapes from the window, but I don't see a thing!", Crystal replied with frustration. "It's because it's night time," Ikuto sweatdropped. Crystal reacted with surprise and started to blush from embarrassment. "I-I knew that!", she said as she crossed her arms and looked to the side. Ikuto responded with a little chuckle.

As more hours went by, morning came. 9 hours have passed by and Ikuto is drinking water while Crystal's head, on Ikuto's jacket, is rested on Ikuto's chest, and his arm is around her, keeping her close to him. 

2 hours went by, and Crystal woke up from her slumber. She removed her head from Ikuto's jacket, stretched, and yawned. As she yawned, Ikuto said, "Good morning, my sleeping beauty," with a smile. "Did you just call me, your sleeping beauty?", she replied with confusion. "Umm..yeah. You always sleep next to me, that's why." Crystal started to blush and looked away, hiding her blushing face.

"Y-You don't have to call me that!"

"Why? I think it's pretty cute."

"I-I just feel weird when you call me that!"

"Really? Okay. How about..princess?"

"N-No!"

"Angel?"

"No!"

"Oh I know. Crystal."

Crystal looked at him with surprise. "My shining Crystal," Ikuto said with a smile as he looked at her. Crystal continued to blush as she smiled. "That's perfect."

After an hour, everyone arrived in Paris and Crystal can finally see landscapes! "Oh my gosh! We're here!", Crystal said with excitement as she looked at the Eiffel Tower from the window. Her Shugo Charas looked through the window with her and squealed with excitement. Meanwhile, Tadase, Amu, Utau, Rima, and Nagihiko looked through the window with excitement as well.

When they left the plane, they catched a cab and went in the direction of Ikuto's hotel. "What does your hotel look like?", Crystal asked Ikuto. "It's not like a five star hotel, but the employees are very nice. Also, there is a lot of room in the hotel rooms and the room service isn't bad either. Actually, it does deserve five stars! It's not a bad place. Once the cab stopped, everyone got out and grabbed their bags out of the trunk. Ikuto paid the cab driver and got one of my bags before I got it. "Let's go!", he said with a smile as he walked to the front door and we followed.

As we walked inside, to the lobby, Ikuto put the bags, he was holding, down and checked in with the clerk. "Check in?", the clerk asked. 

"Check in."

"Name please."

"Ikuto Tsukiyomi. Room 25."

"Ikuto...alright. You have been checked in. Welcome back."

"Thank you."

"Wow. They know your name?", Crystal asked. "Yeah," he replied as he picked up the bags and walked away. Amu walked to the clerk and checked in. As she looked at her, and Tadase, Utau, Rima, and Nagihiko in line, she started to feel nervous. Ikuto looked at them and looked at her, "Are you going to check in?". "Umm..I didn't reserve a hotel room," Crystal sweatdropped. "Really?", Ikuto replied. "Yeah..", the sweatdrop continued to drop from her head. 

After her check in, Amu walked to Ikuto and Crystal. "I got my hotel room key!", she said. Once she said that, Crystal fell to her knees and had a "I suck" look on her face. "What's wrong?"

"She didn't reserve a hotel room."

"Oh."

Crystal started to feel like she wanted to cry. Then, Tadase came, "I got my key!" and Crystal fell into "depressed mode". "Eh? What happened to her?", Tadase asked.

"Crystal?", Ikuto said.

"Yeah..", Crystal replied.

"You can stay in my room."

"What?!"

"I had a roommate before, so you can use his bed. My roommate works with me in the orchestra we play in."

"Really?"

"Yeah. He moved out a month ago."

"Thank you! Thank you so much!"

Crystal was smiling again which made Ikuto smile. "AWW! I WANTED TO BE WITH IKUTO!", Utau pouted with her arms crossed and her hand holding her hotel room key. "Well, at least you won't be sleeping outside, where it is cold, and stuff. Just make sure you don't do anything suspicious." "I promise," Crystal replied. Suddenly, Utau came up to her with her eyes like daggers. "Do you really promise?!", she asked. "Y-Yes!", Crystal replied. After her resonse, she walked back and said, "Good!".

When everyone went to their hotel room, Crystal threw her bags on the bed, sat down, and looked around Ikuto's room. "This is a pretty nice room," she said. "Thanks," Ikuto replied as he started to unpack. Crystal got up and went to the balcony, which was next to her bed. She moved the curtains to the side, opened the door, and reacted with surprise. "Wow. What an amazing view!", she said with amazement. The view showed the Eiffel Tower, the sky with stars, and the beautiful moon shining from above. 

 "It's so beautiful," she said with her eyes full of amazement. "Yeah..", Ikuto replied as he looked at her looking at the view. As he looked at her, he was amazed by how beautiful she looked in the moonlight. Her eyes sparkled by the light of the moon. 

"I can't believe she took the ticket. I can't believe she is right in front of me. Ever since kindergarten, I thought she forgot about me. Back then, I wasn't honest with myself. And so, I locked myself away. The years went by, I met Tadase and Amu. Throughout those years, I started to fall in love with Amu. She was someone that had the same feelings I had. But still, I had feelings for the girl I liked before. Crystal Kazumi. The girl that kind, friendly, smart, enthusiastic. The girl I had a crush on. Now I found her and she continues to shine in front of me."

As he continued to think about her, she looked at him and asked, "Is anything wrong?". Ikuto reacted with surprise, and replied, "No. Nothing's wrong." Crystal reacted with surprise, smiled, and said, "Okay," as she looked back at the view. When she turned around, he smiled and continued to think about her.

"Crystal. You never forgot about me and thanks to you, I feel very happy when you are around me. I never felt this way before, so I don't want to say it to you yet, but je t'aime. That is I love you, in French."
