Old Friends Return

"Hahaha…cheer up Kai, it wasn't that bad and besides we got to see our old friends again!" The cheerful smile contrasted to the scowl that adorned Kai's face.

xGrowlsx "Not that bad. Do I need to replay the events of what happened a while ago?

"…"

→Flashback

"Wow!" Wow it was, the catering store known as 'The Golden Palace' (totally not real!) was beautiful. Cakes displayed for passer-bys to glimpse at, but what made the store one-of-a-kind and hence the name was the inside of the store, with all its magnificent displays and the color of the wall, which was painted golden embellished with ribbons that complemented the color. Those who walked in felt as if they were walking into a royal's room. However, what caught the attention of our food-crazed friend was the many menu's categorized by ethnicity.

"So much food!!!" Drool was slowly sliding down Tyson's mouth earning him disgusting looks from the other customers.

"Tyson! Stop that, people are looking!" Hissed Hilary.

"I can't help it Hil, everything looks edible!"

xSighx "If you don't stop Tyson, I'll make sure the only way you can eat is through a TUBE!!"

"Relax Kai, you don't want to cause a scene" Reasoned Tsuki who was holding her fiancé back from strangling Tyson.

xGrowlsx "I would relax right after I knock him out…"

xGulpx "You don't want to do that…right buddy?"

xEvil Smirkx "Oh, I think I –—" Kai stopped mid sentence because the familiar laughter from behind him caused him to turn and gape, yup The Kai Hiwatari was gaping.

"TALLY-BABA!!!" Screamed the overjoyed Tsuki while glomping the said guy.

"RENĖE!!!" The said girl was now found on the floor next to Tala because a certain lilac haired girl decided test her "glomping" skills.

"It's good to see you too Tsuki, now can you kindly let go I think I'm losing my blood circulation; but you can go and hug Tala to death." Spoke the smirking silver haired girl. Getting up she brushed herself and turned to smirk at the 'melted glacier' as she called him.

"Kai, I see you haven't taken my advice for anger management classes." A smile grazing her lips, matching the glint in her silver eyes that matched her hair.

"Haha very funny…what are you two doing here?"

"Well we were in town wandering when Renèe and I saw you lot enter this place." Answered the tall redhead.

"Oh! And I thought the 'cold-hearted' Tala was gonna get married too!" Snickered Tyson, earning him a bump in the head by Hilary.

xGlaresx "After you, oh wait, you'd probably eat her up!" His glare intensifying.

"Enough!" No fighting kay? Let's play nice and act mature."

"Hey Renèe! You and Tala should get engaged so we could have a joint wedding!" The said girl examined her friend closely to see if she was joking but frankly found none causing a blush to creep across her fair skin.

"…Tsuki…" She didn't know how to respond to that so she turned to her Russian boyfriend for help.

"Well, uh…we um can't…"

"What? Why not?" Asked the very curious Tsuki.

"Because…" started Tala

"Because we don't want to steal your thunder!" Finished Renèe.

"…Why would you steal my thunder? We can just share." Replied the very determined Tsuki. A sigh was heard from Tala, which caused all of the attention to be on him.

"Tsuki…we're just not ready yet…ya know…for…commitment."

"But you've been together pretty long all you have to do is say 'I do'"

"…"

"Sorry to ruin this strange moment but can we please start ordering, the food on the menu looks good and the store manager has been trying to get your guys' attention for a while now!" Spoke the anguish Tyson who was supported by a nod from Hilary.

"Oops! Sorry, let's begin!" Replied Tsuki with a fist thrown up in the air causing sweat drops from the manager, Tyson and Hilary; while Kai held a small loving smile, Tala smirking affectionately towards his 'little sister figure' and Renèe shaking her head with a smile plastered on her face.


"No way Tsuki! This looks way better!"

"Tyson! You've said that for everything, besides this looks prettier"

"…But…this still looks more edible Hilary"

"Ugh!...Tsuki just chose before I beat them" Replied Renèe holding the bridge of her nose.

"Uh…"

"Why not try the desserts" Suggested the manager, trying to get rid of some of the tension that filled the room.

"…Is that even allowed?" Asked Tsuki.

"For you my dear, we'll make an exception and I don't want to have blood spilt on my floor."

→ Cooks Kitchen

"Oh boy! We get to have free desserts!!!"

"Tyson will you just sit down, you're such a PIG!"

"Hey, no bickering you too."

"You tell them mother Renèe!"

"Shut up Tala!"

"…"

"Okay, our cook has prepared both desserts, enjoy."

"Yummmmmmmmmmm…Tsuki this is the one." Spoke Tyson who looked like he was on cloud nine.

"No way! Tsuki this is way better and prettier." Counterattacked Hilary.

"Um…Guys?" Asked Tsuki turning to the others.

"…I'm not getting involved."

"Sorry TK you're on your own."

"…" Came the reply of Renèe, Tala, and Kai respectively.


→ 3 mins. later

"NO THIS IS BETTER HILARY!"

"NO THIS IS TYSON!"

"WHY DON'T YOU TRY THIS HIL, AND LET ME PROVE YOU WRONG!"

"FINE!"

"FINE!" With that said, the Tyson went to hand his dessert plate to Hil but trip on his own two feet, thus sending the dessert to fly straight at the unsuspecting Tala who, after coming back from shock, walked up to the table grabbed Hilary's chosen dessert and chucked it at Tyson, who ducked, and hit Renèe who had a calm look but whose eyes showed murder. Picking up the dessert on the floor, she aimed it at Tala but hit Tsuki who just stood there looking quite amused at her friends' childish behavior. Continuing with their food fight which consisted of Tala and Renèe on one side and Tyson and Hilary on the other and Tsuki and Kai as bystanders, well, Kai looked like he's vein was gonna burst any second. Deciding that their behavior was inappropriate, Kai decided to take things into his own hands because the manager didn't wish to get dessert on his new suit and stood watching behind the doors.

"WILL YOU FOUR GROW—" At the exact moment Kai walked in between the "adults" all four decided to see if they could hit each other but instead ended up hitting Kai who now looked like he was going to murder everyone and everything.

"…"

"I AM SO SORRY BUDDY!"

"Kai, please don't be mad!"

"Shit! Kai I didn't mean to hit you, it kinda…um…slipped?"

"…Oops…"

Came the responses from Tyson, Hilary, Tala, and Renèe respectively.


→ End Flashback

Thus ending to where Tsuki was still laughing at Kai's misfortune while at the same time trying to clean him up.

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha…I…hahahaha…should have brought….a…hahahaahaha…CAMERA!!! You're face was soooooooo priceless Kai…hahahaha…but it shall always be imprinted in my mind for ever…pfft…hahahaha"

"Very…Funny…Tsuki…Ha…Ha…Ha" Came the monotonous reply of Kai

"Well, madam, sir, do you wish to return to pick next time or—"

"Well take it all" Came the firm reply of Kai who still wasn't looking any happier.

"Wha—?

"I don't wish to repeat myself sir."

"Uh…o-okay…when do you want it pre—"

"A month from today, you do know what that is or do you need me to spell it out for you?"

"I-I know sir."

"Good."

xSMACKx "Ow! What the hell Tsuki?" Asked the shock Kai who got smacked upside the head by the said girl.

"…You're sooooooo rude! Go apologize!"

"What! I don't apologize unless I feel I need too! We talked about this a while ago!"

"…I'm not talking to you…yet…"

"…."

"Kai this is where you say, 'I'm sorry I'll go apologize' but knowing you, you're just gonna keep your mouth shut." Spoke Renèe trying to ease the tension-filled room.

xGlaresx

"…Ren…I think we should go now…"

"I agree with Tala, right Hil?"

"Ya Ty, I mean we have lots of things to do yup! Well see ya Tsuki!"

"Ya Ren and I are gonna go, see you guys…come on Ren." With that Kai and Tsuki were left alone, in the store.

"Are you done being mad?"

"Are you done being an asshole?"

"…"

"…"

"Wanna go get something to eat?"

"Okay, but you have to go like this!"

"…No…"

"Yes!"

"…"

"…Yes…" Came the whispered reply of Tsuki trying to keep the smile from spreading across her lips. No matter how hard she tried, she could never stay mad at Kai for too long because she knew that no matter what Kai was always going to be Kai, and she couldn't, no she wouldn't, change his personality because that made him the person she cared about.

"…No…"


That's the end of chapter two!!! How is it so far? Don't worry the real trouble will start soon!!!
