Sholazar watched the chronicled life of the youngsters as though it were some television or graphic novel or something. It was how he watched most things. But part of what he loved about his power was the ability to fix things, try things and to try things again. And now... he focused that attention on Amu and Ikuto. Waiting till each slept, dreams that doubtless would be filled of eachother, but apart, he plucked them before they could begin to dream. He recreated the air port, filled it with people, and dropped them each where they should have been. He settled in to watch, ready to nudge if they even thought of daring to repeat the mockery of a moment they had before.

Amu's heart was racing as she ran through the crowds. She was going to miss him... she just knew it. She couldn't let him leave without saying goodbye. She couldn't... But the airport was so crowded, she could barely squeeze her way through the bustling bodies. She didn't even know where she was going... He was going to leave and she'd never see him again...
"Ikuto!"

"Geez, kid, how much metal do you have on you?" the security guard asked, as the detector went off yet again.
Ikuto heard his name shouted and looked up. "That voice..." he knew that voice. It was Amu's. But what was she doing here?

As though the gods themselves wanted her to succeed, Amu caught a glimpse of her target through the crowd. She jumped and waved. "Ikuto!"

Shock swept through Ikuto as he saw that pink head bobbing in the crowd. "Amu?" What was she doing here? He wasn't expecting her... did she come to see him off? To yell at him?
He didn't care why she had come. He was glad that she did.

"Ikuto, you know... it's a contest now," Amu told him, giving him a bright smile. She managed to get closer to him, and smiled, fighting back the tears. It was hard, but she was doing her best to put on a happy face. To see him off with a smile. "I'm sure your father's out there, and I'll definitely find my true self. So let's have a contest, to see who finds it first."

For a moment, all Ikuto could do was stare at her. Emotions were warring inside of him. He had to find his father. There were too many unanswered questions in his past but... this girl had come to mean so much to him. He'd convinced himself that he could give her time to grow up. He couldn't help but find her determination to find herself as a good thing. Finally, he smiled warmly at her, all of his emotions pouring into the simple expression.
"I've got something to tell you," he informed her, as she finally reached him. It was now or never. He knew that he wouldn't be there to see her grow up. She would be side by side with the kiddy king. He needed to tell her, to leave his mark so that she would remember him even while he was gone.

"I've already given in," he told her, taking a step closer, "Because I love you."
There was no way she could misunderstand him. He wasn't going to take it back this time. Before he left, he would make sure that Amu knew how he felt about her.

"Huh?" Amu gasped, as heat rushed to her cheeks. W...what was he saying?

Ikuto cupped Amu's cheek, marveling at how silky her skin was. Before she could process what was happening, he leaned down and brushed his lips against hers.

Amu's eyes snapped wide in shock before slowly closing as she melted into the touch.

Ikuto pulled away from the kiss, resting his forehead against hers as his arms slid around her small frame. He knew that a denial was coming. Amu had so much trouble accepting things. He smirked as her face turned a bright red.

"W....wh....what was that?" she demanded as her brain kicked into gear. She pushed against his chest slightly, looking away from him as a blush stained her cheeks.

He did so love the way she looked when she blushed. "A kiss."
