Thanks for the reviews! I don't own TMM!

Lettuce sighed, it had been a year since the aliens left. She couldn't help but miss a certain alien. She didn't notice so much before, but now every time she thought about Pai her heart skipped a beat and her face turned beet red. She looked back at her memories of him with fondness and regret. They had treated each other so terribly.

"You okay, Lettuce?" Ichigo asked with a concerned look.

Lettuce gave a smile, "Hai."

"Okay," she said with a shrug and left Lettuce to sweeping the floor.

Kisshu stood impatiently in the main room of the house he shared with his two former-comrades. What was taking Pai so long? Didn't he say the ship would be ready by today?

"Gee, have a heart attack, why don't you?" Tart joked with his anxious friend.

"Shut up, you want to get back as much as I do."

Tart blushed, "I do not!"

"God, you'd think he'd grow up a bit!" Pai said with an fake irritated look on his face.

Kisshu saw Pai and immediately jumped on the question, "The ships ready?!" Pai didn't hear him, his thoughts were elsewhere.

"PAI!" Tart and Kish screamed at him.

"Huh?" he asked, his trance being broken, and a good thing too, for had it continued he may have actually smiled.

"Is the ship ready?"

"Yeah," he said emotionlessly. Kish and Tart immediately rushed out. Pai, on the other hand, teleported into the captains seat on the ship. When they had been back home at first everything was great, they were heroes, and the planet was immediately improved by the Mew Aqua, but soon things began to settle down. All three boys finding Earth much more to their liking than their own planet.

"Ready to go home?" Pai asked as he started up the ship, which would be disguised as a plane once they entered the Earth's atmosphere.

*************************************************************************************

"All right, girls, you can go home!' Ryou called from the kitchen where he was talking to Keiichiro. There was a series of byes as everyone exited.

"That's strange," Lettuce observed.

"What, Nya?" Ichigo asked

"That plane, it's nowhere near the airport and about to land."

"You're right, Nya! Should we go tell Ryou?"

"Oh, it's not too big a deal, I mean I wouldn't want to bother him."

"Okay, well I'm heading home then!"

Lettuce sighed and smiled, "Okay, good night, Ichigo."

"Night, Lettuce!" Ichigo called as her friend left. Lettuce looked up at the plane, it looked like it would land in the middle of the park. Lettuce decided to check it out. She started running towards the probable landing site.

*************************************************************************************

"Kisshu! You idiot!" Pai shouted at him, "We needed to land I an inconspicuous area!"

"Oops," Kisshu said, he had knocked Pai into the emergency landing switch. As the ship landed itself the three calmed themselves, at least they were back. The door automatically opened and the three looked at each other, then proceeded out the door.

*************************************************************************************

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!" Lettuce screamed in disbelief, her hear nearly stopped when she saw Pai.

"Shh!" they all said.

"Sorry, what are you doing here?"

"Attacking the Earth again, of course!" Kish joked.

"Be serious."

"Because our planet sucks!" Tart said.

"Did the Mew Aqua not work?"

"No, we just found that the civilization here was more to our liking than it was back 'home',"
"Um, okay? Where are you guys staying?" They all sweat dropped. "I take that as a 'we don't know'?"

"Uh, hai," Pai said ashamed.

"My parents are out of town, I guess…"

"Thank you," Pai said, looking deep into her eyes.

"N-no pr-prob-problem," she stuttered as she blushed.

Pai smirked, "Lead the way."

"Of course."

*************************************************************************************

"So this is my house," Lettuce said and Kish and Tart immediately made themselves comfortable.

"Could you show me were we'll be sleeping?" Pai asked, truthfully he just wanted to be alone with Lettuce.

"O-of course, this way," she said and led him up the stairs, and into their guest bedroom.

"It's nice, thank you," Pai said.

"It's nothing really," she said with a blush.

"I've missed this," he stated.

"Pardon?"

"You, your blushing, the stammering, everything." Lettuce was appalled.

"I've missed you, too," she said stammering.

Pai did something completely out of character, he took Lettuce into his arms and began kissing her. Lettuce was at first shocked, and then she realized what was happening and kissed back.

"Yo! Love birds!" Kish said from the doorway. The two broke apart and immediately started blushing.
