Strawberry Witch

Full summary: Hinamori Amu is a young witch in training that's transferred to Seiko Academy where she will be among other magical users like herself. But what are these feelings she starts to develop for a certain popular boy that's in his last year of magical cram school? Young Amu will not only have to learn about her powers, but her feelings as well. She has no idea what this school has in store for her. It's only the beginning of her new life. AMUTO, but there will be some one-sided love as well. My first Shugo Chara story, but certainly not my last. Please enjoy! I will not change the name of this story!

I stare at the man that introduced himself as the headmaster and as Ikuto's father. I couldn't help but wonder why I was getting a bad vibe from him. He was my headmaster after all; I should respect him and all that junk. But he was actually scaring me. Am I just nervous to meet the headmaster right after I skipped a whole day of school?

"My business isn't yours," Ikuto hissed. He grabbed onto my wrist and started pulling me away, only to have the headmaster step in front of him stopping us from leaving.

"Hinamori Amu, is it?" he questions, chuckling, "Please don't let my son be a bad influence on you. I'd hate for your grades to slip and for us to be meeting a lot in my office."

He knows my name, how does he know my name? I gulp and just nod. "No worries sir," I say in a whisper bowing my head.

Ikuto's grip tightened around my wrist.

"Ikuto," his father started, "I'll see you shortly, in my office." That was an order and both Ikuto and I shudder as he leaves.

Why was this guy making both of us act like this? I'm sure it's because I don't want to get in trouble and I believe Ikuto is acting this way because this man was his father. I look at Ikuto, who is glaring at the man whose back was to us. "Ikuto…"

He looks at me and then looks forward again. "Come on," he demands as he starts pulling me along.

"Hey…wait," I start but Ikuto doesn't listen as he starts to drag me. It takes me a couple of seconds to gain control of my feet and start wondering why Ikuto is pulling me when I am capable of walking by myself, with no help. "Hey, let go." I say yanking my wrist out of his grasp.

Ikuto stops cold in his tracks and keeps staring forward.

I start to feel concerned for him so I decide I should try to talk to him. "What's wrong Ikuto? You're not going to get in that much trouble, are you?"

He chuckles and once again I have a bad feeling. "Hardly," he answers and he starts walking, leaving me behind.

"Hey, wait," I chase after him. "What was all that about then?"

"Don't worry about it," he claims turning around and giving me a cold, stern look that caused me to freeze and stop chasing after him. He turns back around and walks off and this time I don't chase after him.

I am very curious now. There is a lot about Tsukiyomi Ikuto that I don't know, but I was going to try to discover some things about him, that I knew.

"Leave Ikuto alone."

I turn around and recognize the girl behind me. She was that blonde that has been glaring at me since I started Seiko. She was leaning against the outside of the dorms glaring at me.

"You have it wrong," I state crossing my arms in front of my chest. "Ikuto is the one bothering me."

She starts walking towards me, still glaring and repeats. "Leave Ikuto alone."

She rams her shoulder against mine as she walks passed me, causing me to back up a few steps. "Hey! What's your problem?" I shout, seriously annoyed now.

She turns back around; the look she gives me is ice cold. "Mind your business or else you'll screw up everything," she hisses and with that she leaves me there confused.

"What is up with these people at this school?" I scream, knowing I am by myself, besides my charas.

"Amu-chan," Ran starts as she places her little hand on my shoulder. "It'll be ok."

"Jeez, some people really have problems," I mumble, filling my cheeks with air as I look away from her.

"Everyone has their own problems," Miki states crossing her arms over her chest. I narrow my eyes at her as she continues, "Maybe you'll be the one to help them."

"Now what gives you that idea?" I ask as I stare at Miki confused by her words. "I can't even solve my own problems. I won't be able to help people with theirs."

Miki shrugs, Ran scratches the back of her head, and Suu smiles.

"Amu-chan will do great things, desu!" Suu beams as she winks at me.

I sigh. "Why do people keep telling me that?" I question myself, out loud. I seriously did not see myself as special or that I am going to be doing great things. I know I shouldn't doubt myself otherwise my charas would worry so I shake that thought and feeling away. We all leave to head back to our room for the night, or at least that was the plan.

"Amu-chan!"

"Amu-chii!"

"Hinamori-san!"

"Dude, Hinamori, are you okay?"

All these questions are heard when I walk into my dorm room. I see all my friends sitting on Nadeshiko's bed as well as my own. In the room are Nadeshiko, Yaya, Tadase-kun, Kukai, Nagihiko, and all their charas. They all jump of the beds and approach me.

"Yaya was so worried!" Yaya cries as she launches onto me.

"I'm fine, Yaya-chan, I promise, I'm fine," I say nervously. Were they all really this worried?

"Ikuto-san, didn't do anything to you?" Tadase-kun questions.

I shake my head. "No, he just took me to this spring and had me drink from it. It took the effects of the love potion away," I state.

"What spring?" Nadeshiko asks curiously.

I shrug. "I don't know, some spring way out in the forest," is all I could answer because I had no idea where the spring was located.

"So you're perfectly okay now?" Nagihiko asks with a gentle smile on his face.

I nod and smile back. "I'm completely one hundred percent okay. Surprisingly Tsukiyomi Ikuto only planned on helping me."

Kukai chuckled. "Well that's good, we were all worried what kind of tricks he would play on you," he pats Tadase-kun on the back kind of hard that it jerks the boy forward. "Right, Tadase?"

Tadase turned red. "We worried about your safety Hinamori-san,"

I try to fight the blush but I know I can't and I know that it is showing across my face. "Thanks," I whisper bowing my head. "Thank you all for caring so much. I'm back now, so let's relax."

"Yes, let's relax and get a snack because all this worrying has made Yaya hungry!" Yaya shouts as she starts heading out the door. "Come on slowpokes! Yaya wants ice cream!"

"Shall we go the ice cream parlor in town?" Nadeshiko questions looking at all of us.

"It has the best ice cream around, why wouldn't we go there?" Kukai questions back with a sarcastic tone. And with that we all leave and go to probably the best ice cream place ever!

000000000

We're all sitting down at a round booth with an ice cream cone in one of our hands. This ice cream place is freaking amazing. It's once again something you see out of a movie, designed to look like the human world in the fifties. And the ice cream is so soft and yummy with creative names like Unicorn Splash and Toad Wart's, which sounds gross but is really mint ice cream with huge chocolate chunks. The ice cream I chose was, ironically, Love Spell which was a pink soft ice cream that tastes like bubblegum and strawberries, because of course had strawberry slices in the ice cream and it had pink sprinkles. It was the best ice cream I have ever tasted.

"So why do you think Tsukiyomi-san was so nice today that he helped you?" Nadeshiko asks as she licks her cone.

I shrug. "I don't really know," I answer. "Maybe he's not that bad of a guy, don't get me wrong he's not a perfect gentleman but he's not that big of a jerk."

Yaya stops licking her ice cream that was basically covered in chocolate syrup and looks at me. "But why help you?"

"Maybe he found it annoying that she was under the spell and just happened to be going all crazy in love with him," Kukai suggests chuckling.

I shot him a glare. "It wasn't my fault."

"Anyways, it's good to have you back to normal, Amu-chan," Nagihiko claims placing a hand on my shoulder since he was sitting right next to me.

"It feels freaking great to be back to normal," I beam with a small smile, and they honestly had no clue how good it felt. All of a sudden I remember the confrontation with Ikuto's father, the headmaster, and I become silent. I was actually worried about Ikuto and what kind of trouble he was getting in.

Tadase-kun was the first to notice the change in my behavior. "Hinamori-san?"

I look up and everyone is staring at me with question in their eyes and I open my mouth to speak. "Did you guys know Ikuto's father was the headmaster?" I ask; I had to tell them what was on my mind. I couldn't let this bother me alone.

They all take a look at one another and then look back at me, and they all nod.

"Did you meet Headmaster Kazuomi today?" Tadase-kun questions.

I nod. "Yeah, and I'm afraid Ikuto might be getting in trouble."

Kukai bursts into laughter. "Haha that's funny, Tsukiyomi Ikuto getting into trouble!" His laughter continued and a few others snickered.

Tadase-kun looks at me. "Don't worry Hinamori-san, Ikuto-san will not be getting in trouble by his father."

"How do you know?" I ask all of them, since they were all so sure.

"We all know this because Tsukiyomi-san has never gotten in trouble, not even once," Nagihiko states. "With all his skipping and falling asleep in class you would think he would get in trouble, but teachers don't say anything and if they do they just tell him to go to the headmaster's office and then he comes back a little later and does the same thing. He's fine."

I decide to be quiet, but I'm not convinced that Ikuto is okay. I will eventually find out though, one way or another. "Does he like his father? Do they get along? Today I got a real bad vibe from them."

Everyone shrugs but Tadase-kun, he just gives me a look that says 'you should leave that subject alone', and once again I become silent. My thoughts go to Ikuto and maybe I am just over thinking and worrying too much, but I just can't get that feeling out of my system; that feeling that is telling me something is seriously wrong with this picture.

000000000000

We all finish with our ice cream cones and start heading back to the dorms, but this time it was starting to get dark which meant we had to rush back before the gates would be closed. We all walk in our fastest paces possible.

I really enjoy the times we have together, even if I have only been here a week. These kids were just amazing friends. The laughter we share is the best. They all really care about me. I couldn't have found better friends than these. I believe this is just the start of our great friendship.

We're all laughing about something that Kukai had done during gym; turns out he has a thing for soccer which most wizards don't play. He was trying to get some people to play and got about like five boys and when he was teaching some of them the basics a kid kicked the ball and hit Sara-sensei in the head.

Kukai continues his story but I get distracted by something Silver and I stop and I finally notice it. It was a person, in all silver hoping down from the top of the gate. My eyes get wide. Was this the Silver Knight everyone was talking about when I started? I notice that in this person's hands are books and what looks like orbs. This person quickly disappears from my sight into the forest. I'm tempted to follow after whomever that was until…

"Amu-chii?" Yaya's voice.

"Everything okay, Amu-chan?" Nadeshiko's voice.

I turn and look at all my friends, who were all staring at me. "I…saw something," I answer looking back towards the forest and all their eyes travel the same direction.

Kukai shrugs and says, "Maybe it was an animal, we do have those in the Magical Kingdom, Hinamori," he was teasing me.

I look at him and stick out my tongue. "Let's head in before we're locked out."

"Good idea," Kukai says agreeing with me.

We all walk Yaya to her dorm room, and then the boys walk Nadeshiko and I to our room. We finally reach our door and we turn to the boys.

"Well goodnight, it's been fun," Nadeshiko claims before opening the door and entering our room.

"Yeah, thanks," I say slowly following after her, but still facing the boys.

Kukai and Nagihiko nod and turn around to leave. Tadase bows his head and says, "Goodnight, Hinamori-san, see you in the morning. Sweet dreams," and with those sweet words he joins the other two.

I blush and whisper back, "Night." With that I enter the room and close the door behind me. I see Nadeshiko looking at me with a big smile on her face. "N-nani?"

"You like him, don't you?" she questions with a giggle.

I know I turn cherry, like the fruit, red. "H-huh? Why are you asking such a question?" I say trying to keep my cool.

"Hotori-kun," Nadeshiko states. "You like him don't you?"

I sit down on my bed, still looking at her and slowly nod. "Y-yeah. I've never meant anyone so kind or so prince charming like. I know I am forming a crush," I answer, a little embarrassed but I know that I can trust Nadeshiko with this.

Her smile widens. "Well then let's see what we can do about that," she says as she sits down on her bed.

I look at her confused, "What do you mean?"

"Well Amu-chan," she starts, "We're going to plan something for you to do for Hotori-kun. Don't you want to confess?"

"N-nani? Confess? Are you crazy!" I shout almost falling off my bed. I hear my charas snicker behind me but I ignore them. "I can't confess. He probably doesn't like me." My eyes lower to the floor.

"Amu-chan, don't worry about that," she reassures, "I'm sure Hotori-kun won't reject your confession." I look at her again and she puts a finger to her lips hushing me and continues talking, "Trust me. I have this all figured out. Now let's get some rest, okay?"

I just nod and with that we get ready for bed and then we lay down. I'm lying down and it seems like hours have gone by when really only fifteen minutes have. My mind is on overload. My first week has been crazy insane and to be honest I am really tired.

"Amu-chan?" It was Ran.

"Hm?" I mumble, keeping my eyes close.

"It's fun here, isn't it?"

I nod and whisper, "Yeah." I didn't want to wake Nadeshiko if she was asleep.

"See it wasn't that scary to come here."

I open my eyes and see all my charas right in front of me. "It's only scaring because I don't know what the future holds for us."

"That's life. You never know what it has to offer," Miki states; a fact that I already was aware of.

"We're here for you Amu-chan and so are our new friends, desu," Suu says sweetly with a smile.

I smile at them. "Thank you, Ran, Miki, Suu, you're the best charas I could have asked for," I claim and then I close my eyes. "Night."

"Night Amu-chan," they all say in union.

With that we all go to bed and I swear at some point of the night I felt something graze my cheek, something warm, but I didn't bother budging because it was probably nothing. However, that didn't stop me from having a dream. In this dream I was back in the human world and I was staring at a tall dark figure, my lips were moving but I had no idea what was coming out of my mouth. I couldn't even tell how was the figure was. That was the weirdest dream I have ever had, absolutely no point to it, well, that's what I thought anyways. With my life now, who knows what that dream could actually have meant.

000000End of Chapter0000000

Alright here is another chapter and I hope you all enjoyed. This was just a 'relaxing' chapter. The next one I probably will skip a week or two and probably will have more school work. I probably will also try to cover a lot more information. I'm not really sure. I'm still drafting chapter 11 as we speak. But tell me what you thought of this chapter! And once again if there's something you would like to read in this story let me know. Also I am going to put up a summary of my new story sometime soon. So look out for that and tell me what you think.

Please review!

Ikuto: I was hardly in this chapter. How boring. You need to make up for these past two chapters.

Amu: Shut up. Let her do whatever she feels like.

Ikuto: Why don't you make me shut up, Amu. –winks-

Cookie-chan: Alright you two, enough. I'm trying to type the next chapter, now STOP! –brain is on overload-

Yoru: She's about to blow, nya!

Utau: I need to be in this story more. I demand that.

Cookie-chan: Jeez, hold on. I'm trying. Gah! I'll just make my chapters longer than! Happy?

Everyone slowly backs away.
