A gentle breeze, a bright sun, and silence. Yes, this was the perfect Friday that Raye had been craving for the last few weeks. Each and every Friday had been bothered by either a Serena's "urgent" meetings or an accident by her miko apprentices. Raye let out a small sigh as she looked up to the sky.

'Today seems too perfect to be true.'

Brrrrrriiiiiinnnnngg!

The only phone in the Shrine rung, echoing in each hall and room. Raye groaned out of realization that it was going to be a usual Friday. Reluctantly, she walked from the porch to the phone.

"Miss Hino! This call is for you!" one of Raye's apprentices had got the phone for her.

"Yes, Katie, I know."

'Not to mention I know who it would be from.'

Raye received the phone from Katie.

"What is it this time, Serena?" not bothering to check who had called.

"Um, first off, I'm not Serena."

"M-Mina?"

"That's right! And that's Aphrodite to you, Pyro!"

Raye blushed while Mina giggled.

"Why were you expecting Serena, anyway? Wait, you two weren't planning for a date, were you?"

Raye stopped blushing and scowled.

"Hell, no! It's just that she always makes these not-so-urgent urgent meetings just to get me, Amy, Lita, and herself get together every other weekend! Besides, I'd rather go on a date with…"

Raye paused. She knew she'd be saying too much if she did.

"Who? Who would you rather go on a date with?"

"Never mind that," Raye growled, "So why did you call?"

"Like to everyone else I had called before you, I'm announcing that I'm coming back to Japan for a three-month vacation. Plus, I'd like to see all of you as soon as I get there."

'I'm not the first one she had called…'

"Really? That'd be great! When's your arrival?" Raye tried to sound happy instead of disappointed.

"Uh… I recall Dan saying sometime around ten in the morning, and knowing how he is with time, I'd say our meeting with you guys should be perfect around noon."

Raye smirked. Dan, who was Mina's manager ever since she debuted, had a knack for using two hours of settling down after a flight, whether it'd be in Tokyo, Kyoto, or London.

"Well, I'm pretty sure every other plan will be done by Serena who's late for everything, so you can take your time."

Mina laughed.

"I think that's covered by Dan. So I'll see you then, 'kay?"

" 'Kay."

"Alright, then. See ya then, love."

The line went out and Raye was flushed.

'Did she just call me, love? Could she…?'

Raye smirked as she recalled Mina's voice saying "love" to her.

Brrrrrriiiiiinnnnngg!

Raye groaned. This phone call was her usual Friday call.

'Ah, another sweet, relaxing Friday is about to be flown away…'

"This is the Hikawa Shrine, how may I help you?"

Mina's Dressing Room (London)

Mina turned her cell phone off and sighed. She had told a lie to Raye, intentionally, just to have some fun. Mina giggled. She could see it now, Raye's amethyst eyes swirling with jealousy that she was not the first one to be called. Pity, Raye was good at hiding emotion through her voice. She seemed so unaffected by it.

'Though, I'm pretty sure I got her blushed by my last word.'

Mina gave out a self-satisfied smirk.

"What's so funny?" Artemis asked as he finished his midnight dinner.

"Oh, let's just say I got a fire burning."

"I'm guessing that's Raye."

"Aren't you the smart one?"

"Really, how about you just let your feelings out, instead of teasing her by beating the bush?"

"Aww, and miss the fun in teasing?" Mina pouted at her white guardian.

Artemis's sweat dropped. "Mina!"

"Oh, don't worry so much! I was planning to tell her this time, anyway."

"It's about time, too! And to think all the suffering Raye had gone through all these years…"

"Hey! I didn't tease her that harsh!"

"More than you think - oomph!" Artemis's answer was muffled as he was hit by a cushion that Mina threw. "What did you do that for?"

"Serves you right, you white plush."

Artemis groaned.

"Anyways, are you ready for bed?"

"Already? It's not even past midnight yet!"

"You do know that the flight and its aftermath are going to be pretty tiring."

"Sure, I do. I just need to make let's see, Serena, Amy, Lita, Amara, and since Michelle, Trista, and Hotaru live with Amara, a total of four more calls!"

"Ugh, Mina! And I thought you said you were done by that last call!"

Mina just giggled.
