Aikawa was in Akihiko's apartment one afternoon picking up his latest manuscript, Akihiko was asleep after being up all night finishing the manuscript, and Misaki was in the kitchen fixing a snack, shuddering to think what was in the manuscript.

'I'll be going now.'

Aikawa alerted Misaki to her departure.

'Are you sure you wouldn't like something to eat?'

Misaki exited the kitchen and met her at the door.

'No, I'm fine.'

Aikawa was struggling to open the door with the manuscript, some various bags, and a pink bakery box in her hands.

'I'll open it. Here let me carry some of your things.'

He reached for some of the bags.

'Don't trouble yourself. You could however take the box to the kitchen. I brought you some more of those creampuffs.'

As Aikawa was trying to hand over the box everything slipped from her grasp.

'Oh, no! Creampuffs have gone everywhere. Don't worry I'll clean it up.'

Aikawa bent down and started cleaning up.

'I'll help.'

Misaki started cleaning up too.

'It doesn't look like too much cream got on the floor. It should clean up fine'

Misaki assured her. He then took notice of some camping brochures that had spilled out of her purse.

'Are you planning on taking a camping trip?'

'I was thinking about it, but the bugs and all of the hassle don't seem like a lot of fun so I'm going to the hot springs instead.'

'Oh, I see. That sounds good too.'

'You can hold on to the camping brochures if you like. I'm not going to use them.'

'Thank you.'

'No problem.'

They finished cleaning up and Aikawa went on her way. Misaki put the brochures on the table and went back to the kitchen to finish eating.

Please review if you want another chapter. I'm not sure how long I was planning to make this story, but It may go on for a while or not long at all depending on the reviews. Also, any advice for future chapters would be most helpful. I'm still kinda new to this.
