"No matter what changes, I'll still be me..."

Seeing Ikuto squirm instead of her for once was very amusing. She would definitely try messing with him again if he let her get close. How could she not? His purring was absolutely adorable! Ah, well. Next time, she'd get his ears to pop out.
Despite the teasing, Ikuto didn't mind her leaning onto him. He wrapped an arm around her slender shoulders, which made Amu sigh in contentment. She didn't think to grab a sweater before she climbed up here, so she was grateful for his warm embrace. After asking her question, Ikuto simply answered, "Yes." She supposed that was her cue to continue. He was never a man of many words, which was fine. She looked up at the sky as the sun continued to set, not noticing that four charas quietly returned to the roof. She gave herself a few seconds to gather her thoughts.
She replayed pieces of their last conversation in her head.
"It's a contest now! I'm sure your father is out there! And I'll definitely find my true self!"... "Well then, I'll bet you something, too. I'll definitely make you fall for me. So prepare yourself."
She turned to look up at Ikuto. She found much of her true self, sure, but she still had more maturing to do. He traveled the world just like his father, but he still hadn't met his father. Her bet from back then was still on, she supposed, but his... 'Here goes nothing...' she thought, suddenly nervous again.
"You won your bet," she said with a shy smile. There was no going back now. She had to say everything she wanted to say at this moment, or she may never have the nerve to say it again. "Even as a kid, I seriously considered what you said to me. I didn't understand much about those kinds of feelings back then, as I'm sure you realized, but maybe I was already falling for you-- just a little bit..."
A small epiphany struck her then. She looked out to the horizon as the sun continued to set and paint the sky with shades of orange and pink. "Wow. I wonder now if Tadase noticed that in me." The usual -kun she added to his name was missing. "I wonder if that's why things didn't work out.... Huh. If that's true, then I guess that means you really are my first love!... Afterall, they say, 'Absence makes the heart grow fonder.'" She chuckled at that, her cheeks tinged slightly pink. All of this was very ironic, like a shoujo manga where the pieces don't fit together until the very end. She wondered if any of this made sense to him.
"What I'm trying to say is that, I think..." That wasn't what she wanted to say. She stopped, took a deep breath, and started her sentence over. Staring into Ikuto's deep blue eyes, she said with a smile, "What I'm saying is that I know, Ikuto... that I've fallen in love with you."
