Mijke: WHY WON'T YOU LET ME HOPE!

SnowFubuki: Mijke please calm down... -.-

It has been about a month now and Ryuuji finally started to understand how it works. Even with all the training he had gotten it was still a bit hard for him, it was really different from the training. Always staying nice and the costumer was king.

Despite all of that, he had to admit that this was a lot more fun than he expected. At the end of the day they would always clean up with the entire household.

"Girls girls!" the mother yelled as she came in. "Tomorrow we have special costumers coming over. They have reserved the whole place!"

"Oh oh who is it, who is it?!" Kona said, jumping around.

"Does any of you know anything about Sun Garden?" Everyone in the room nodded. "Well it's the kids from Sun Garden who we will be serving tomorrow. This is their very first time to attend a tea ceremony so we want this to be special."

"There is this hot kid in Sun Garden" Konma whispered to Kou.

"Wait isn't that the one that's in Ryuuji's school?" Kou replied.

"Girls girls calm down, stay professional." Ryo said.

Ryuuji on the other hand was freaking out. If the Sun Garden would come that would mean HE would come. Hiroto, the hottest and sweetest guy in school. Everybody knew him, just everybody. He was always followed around by the other Sun Garden children like he was the leader. But somehow he did this is in a good way. He was just nice, sweet and funny….

Not only did Ryuuji never talk to him, he was also one year ahead of him. That'd just be weird. You don't just speak to the people who are older than you, you have to wait for them to talk to you, one of the unspoken rules of the school.

"What if he finds out, my life will be over" Ryuuji thought.

"Don't worry Ryuuji everything will be alright!" Konma said with a grin on her face and Ryuuji sighed. "Guys, go clean up!" Ryo yelled. Everybody shivered in fear and continued cleaning.

~2 hours later~

"I'm so tired!" Kou said. "Me too!" Konma replied.

"Girls, dinner!" The mother yelled from the kitchen.

Everybody went to the dining room. Ryuuji was a bit speechless, because his mother referred Ryuuji also as a girl basically.

"Uhm e-excuse me mother, but you said girls back then, a-are you referring me as a girl?" Ryuuji asked his mother.

"My my Ryuuji-kun I'm sorry sweetie, I didn't mean it like that" His mother replied.

"It's okay mother" Ryuuji answered. They all sat down at the table and started eating.

"Hey hey isn't it better if we treat Ryuuji as a girl even if there is no one else around?" Kou said in a teasing tone.

"What?! Are you kidding me? I'm still a boy you know!" Kou smirked at him. This was really pissing Ryuuji off. That he had to be called a girl when working was one thing, but his own family?! That was just stupid! He was a boy after all, no matter what everybody thought.

"That's actually a very good idea Kou." Their father said in a very calm tone. Everyone looked shocked at him. "F-father…. are you sure about that? I mean it's a bit weird right?" Ryuuji tried, knowing it would not work.

"No, we should do that, so all of us could get used to it." Ryuuji sighed. This was getting better and better, he thought bitterly.

~The next day~

Nervous. that was the only thing he was at the moment. He didn't think he had ever been this nervous in his whole life! He kept telling himself they they were just a group of people, just like all the others but it seemed that he couldn't convince his body to think so too.

He was standing in the back of the restaurant, seriously too scared to walk in there and do his job. He could hear everyone talking rather loudly for a tea shop, but these were teens so that was understandable.

"Ryuuji?! Come on we need you!" Mugi shouted at him.

He took a deep breath and walked into the store. His father grabbed his arm and pulled him over to one of the tables. And of course, with all of his luck it was the table with Hiroto. All of them were looking at him.

Ryuuji felt like he was getting as red as a strawberry with everybody looking at him. "W-welcome at the Midorikawa tea house, I will be your servant today." He bowed and stayed in that position. He wasn't allowed to go back up until he was spoken to.

It was silent for quite some time, until a guy with hair that looked like a tulip spoke up. "You can just freaking stand up right you know."

Quickly Ryuuji rose up, hitting his head against the table. He fell down backwards on his butt, blushing in embarrassment.

When he looked up Hiroto held out his hand to me. "Come on, get up." He smiled sweetly at him and Ryuuji carefully took his hand to stand up.

"I-I apologize deeply. That was not meant to happen."

Hiroto just kept smiling at him. "It's okay, it was an accident."

Ryuuji blushed a bit again. "O-okay then…. I'm just gonna get the stuff, excuse me for a moment" As Ryuuji walked away he tried to collect himself a bit, but as soon as he was in the back he almost fell against the wall. He leaned against it and put his hand on his heart, feeling it beat incredibly hard inside of his chest.

That was it for now guys! We hope to see all of you in the next chappy!

R&R and no Flames!

See you next time! (^.^)/
