"Meet Judge Ichigo Amano." The group of boys who stared at me looked away. The one with green hair blushed greatly. The blonde one who seemed a little bit like the devil….you could see a splash of pink arising on his cheeks, but then it disappeared immediately. The blushes returned when they noticed I was watching them. I am guessing they are around a year older than me.

This is going to be interesting.

Chapter 2: The Sweet Princes

Amu's POV

The competition flew by and I got to taste many amazing creations. The very good ones I would rate an 8 or 9 out of ten, but so far no one has got a ten from me. I can't wait to taste something worthy of a ten. I was staring into space while they were explaining the rules for the next round. "The Sweet Princes vs. the Ballerina Sweets." was announced. On the platform stood the three boys that I saw earlier this morning and they seemed shocked. "No one has ever gotten a rating of ten from Teenage Judge Ichigo Amano." The announcer said. "If you do, it must really be breathe-taking because Judge Amano has exquisite taste buds." The sweet princes stood there dumbfounded for a second then immediately transformed into serious faces. Especially the blonde. I smiled at the two groups and said, "Good Luck."

I've noticed throughout the competitions that each of the four had very different likings. One love bitter while another loved sweet. Another judge hated sweet and Judge Henri and I would be fine with anything as long as it's good. Emphasis on good. Like I visualize myself in paradise when I'm eating it. That's what happens when I taste something amazing and I hope someday, if I ever make sweets, that the judges would feel that too.

The contestants have an hour to prepare anything of their choice, but it has to fit the theme fantasy. The timer has started and I can't wait to taste! I studied how fluently the Sweets Princes worked on their sweets. It's perfect. Time flew by and now there's ten minutes left. The Ballerina Sweets are working on a pink fluffy cake with candy statues of fairies. That fits the theme, but the actual cake is the question.

Each team put on their final touches.

Both contestants froze. The sweets looked amazing. Up first was Ballerina Sweets. They rolled their cart with their cake on it over and explained, "We did fairies enjoying the spring breeze doing ballerina." The leader placed a piece of cake in front of each of the five judges. I took a bite out of the cake. I could visualize the fairies dancing, but the warm spring breeze didn't appear anywhere. The cake itself was missing something vital to complete the whole picture. I wrote down '7' as my score because they didn't accomplish everything. Sure they got the fairytale theme right, but there's something missing. Something vital is missing because I have never given a 7 before yet.

The scores were showed on the screen. Two of the judges gave them a 9 while the judge who likes bitter the most granted them an 8. Judge Henri gave them a 6; he's always been a hard grader. The girls from the Ballerina Sweets teams were staring eagerly at my name on the board waiting for my score. They were most likely hoping that they were getting the special TEN, but of course they haven't. It felt like forever when my score finally appeared. The leader of the team started to cry because that's the lowest score I have ever given anyone in this competition.

The blonde from the Sweet Princes stepped towards the cart holding their creation and blushed slightly when he glanced at me. "We wanted to show and express the vast land where the Sweets Fairies live and thrive, coming to the human-world to fine their respective partner. The green-haired one from their team placed a slice of their cake in front of each of us. When he got to me he winked slightly and discretely handed me a small candy rose. I blushed and stared down at the rose as he moved back to his team-mates. The blonde noticed and it looked like he was glaring at him. I smiled at the sight.

Picking up my fork and scooping up a small piece for tasting I popped it into my mouth and felt an explosion. I could see the legendary sweet fairies flying around their land. I could easily visualize what the place they lived in would be like. The hint of chocolate located in the middle of the cake let me see the chocolate fountains and the Japanese style red-bean fit perfectly with it somehow. How did they do that!? I continued on walking through the land of the Sweets Fairies when someone snapped their fingers in front of me. I snapped back into reality and realized I hadn't written down my score. This is just amazing! I wonder how they made the red-bean and the chocolate work so perfectly. And now that I think about it, there was a hint of a rose scent. This is perfection. I wrote down my score and waited for the announcements.

Two of the other judges gave them a ten. The third gave them a 9. Now it's up to Judge Henri's score and mine.

What did Judge Henri score them?

Chapter 2 - FINISHED

It's a bit scurried also, but I want to hurry it up a bit so I can get to all the FLUFF.

Song of this chapter:

I LOVE THIS SONG! MY PERSONAL FAVORITE! I SMILE WHENEVER I LISTEN TO IT. J (which is more than 10 times a day)

Mirai Chizu by St rish from Uta no Prince-sama

Even if it's in Japanese, it's an amazing song.

It's rare for two songs.

Here's the second recommendation:

Crystal Time by Tokiya Ichinose from Uta no Prince-sama – Maji Love 2000% episode 10

Tokiya Ichinose is played by Mamoru Mayano

He's my favorite singer in Uta no Prince-sama
