Holiday Jobs, Chapter 2; Bananas and Guitar Hero

In the dorms

'Ne, Natsume?' questioned our lovely brunette, worried, 'Are you cheating on me?'

'HAR?' came our raven-haired lad's reply, 'You've been reading those Gakuen Alice mangas again, havent you?

'Yes, I have and the facts are all true! So who's this Luna? And why are you so mea-'

'THWACK!' came the back head slap.

'Baka, you're the only one for me, we don't even know a Luna, that's just a manga and I've always been mean to you (affectionately)' and with that, the couple was about to close in for a kiss until-

'RING RING RING RING RING RING RING, BANANA PHONE! RING RING RING RING RING RING RING, BANANA PHONE!'~ Mikan blushes as she hurriedly picked up her phone and fumbled with the buttons.

'H-hello?'

'Mikan, you don't wanna late on your first day of work by having sexy time with Hyuuga. Get your butt down, now.' and with a click, Hotaru hung up in Mikan, leaving the girl stunned and red in the face.

'Oi Polka, change your ringtone or put it on silent mode next time.'


At the bus stop

'Hotaru! Thanks for the wake up call!' Mikan tried to cover up.

Hotaru smirked while Ruka and Natsume exchanged glances and nods.

'Well, good luck to the both of you on your first day,' Ruka grinned.

'I should be the one saying that, Ruka,' smirked Natsume as he mouthed the word, Piyo.

And the foursome split.

At the gadget shop

The blond with clear cerulean eyes stared at a fuzzy yellow object from far. Passer-bys had a warm fuzzy feeling as they passed by him. His face was near the window glass and his hands were planted on them, next to his face. His eyes searched hungriliy for the fuzzy object and he stared, and he stared, and he stared, longingly. How he wished to see Piyo, who was so close, yet so f-

'BAKAN! BAKAN! BAKAN!'

'Ho...Hotaru?' Ruka pouted and gestured towards Piyo, 'Don't you like chickens?'

'Yes, when they're on my plate, serves with crab brain sauce. Now get back to work,' she replied ever so stoically. Jealous much?

'Okay.' And with a defeated sign, Ruka tore his glance from Piyo and tried out the guitar hero set.

'How about a challenge?' Hotaru offered, smiling sweetly, 'Head to head on Through The Fire And The Flames. Winner gets to eat Piyo or buy piyo, respectively.'

'You're on!' Ruka said, with a sudden flame of passion in his eyes as he clicked the buttons and strummed the strummer vigorously.

At the ice-cream shop

'Oh Natsume-kun, Mikan-chan,' the supervisor, Haruhi, called, 'Will you go to the shop Never Say No and buy us some ingredients for our shop's special?'

'Okay!'

'....'

'Arigatou ne?'

'Is it me or does our supervisor remind you of that girl from Ouran High School host Club?' Natsume asked Mikan.

'Heh?! I though you didnt read shoujo!' she gasped and pointed a finger at him accusingly.

'TWHACK!'

'Baka, Ruka reads it, not me. But I'm well informed cos he tells it to me every night.'

Natsume, just admit it already.

'Oh, well yeah, she's kinda like her, same name and all. Small world i guess!' and Mikan let it go.

Dense, thought Natsume as he heaved a sigh of relief.

At Never Say No

'Do you have any bananas?' Natsume's husky voice boomed.

'Yes, we have no bananas.' the shopkeeper smiled. Natsume raised a eyebrow.

'Is that a yes or a no?'

'Yes, we have no bananas!' the shopkeeper smiled. He narrowed his crimson eyes, a vein popped out.

'So which is it.'

'Yes, we have no bananas!!' the shopkeeper smiled and sang it this time. Natsume death glared him and walked off, bumping into a man pushing a cart of cabbages. The poor guy lost his balance and his cart fell and all the cabbages spilled out.

'MY CABBAGES!' he screeched.

Mikan, who witnessed tho whole scene, sweat dropped and later caught up with Natsume.

At the gadget shop

'Ruka, isn't that Mikan's sempai?' Hotaru asked, eyes fixed on the tv screen. Their head to head match had drawn in a crowd and they dueled to kill now.

'Where?' and Ruka turned his head, missing the last 5 notes and lost to Hotaru.

'Oh, he went by like 10 minutes ago. I couldn't tell you then though,' she smiled and put the guitar back to it's holding place, 'So chicken for lunch huh?'

'........................................................................NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REMATCH!'

At the other shop..

The cashier looked and the couple and smiled-'So it's a bunch of bananas, whipped cream, almond nuts and chocolate sauce, anything els-'

'NO.' - only to be crestfallen after being interupted by a manly husky voice and a death glare.

'Let's go polka.'

'Chill Natsume, too much anger will give you wrinkles!' she giggled.

'Who cares about that' and he turned away to hide that hint of blush. How he loved the sound of her voice and her laughter. There was just so much warmth in her. Her smile, her laughter, her voice, her dense logic, and he-

'Yosh! Mikan! Natsume!' came the voice that interupted Natsume's thoughts.

'HEH? Tsubasa-sempai!' Mikan squealed.

Bald freak, thought Natsume.

'Ne, where's Misaki?'

'Oh she has an appointment today so I'm waiting for her. So you're both working at the ice-cream shop down th-'

'LEAVE.'

'Natsume!' Mikan whined.

'Let's go. We're late. Stupid baldie.' And he dragged her away.

Damn he has issues.

Back at the gadget shop

Ruka and Hotaru were up to there 3rd rematch already. The statistics? Ruka 0, Hotaru 3.

'C'mon Ruka, let's go for lunch,' she said and took out her baka gun and wallet. He nodded immediately.

Of course, Hotaru had to purposely take the route where Piyo was. And as if he knew what was going on, Piyo ignored Ruka, thinking he betrayed him by losing.

'Piyo piyo piyo piyo! (how could you lose!)'

'She was better than me!'

'Piyo piyo (bullshit)'

'Ruka,' Hotaru said as she pointed the baka gun at Piyo,'I'm hungry.'

'PIYO! (OH NO!)'

'Okay, let's go.' Yes, he's half-sobbing.

'So which vegetarian place do you wanna eat at?' Hotaru questioned.

'What?'

'Mikan said this one had crabs. Nut's Kitchen. So, how bout it?' she smiled at Ruka. A genuinely genuine smile.

'That'll do.'

An hour later at the ice-cream shop

Our favourite couple had learnt the ropes and are now officiall working. Mikan taking orders and scooping the ice-cream and Natsume washing dishes. Occasionally, the other male employees would pretend to drop something and get Mikan to pick it up. Natsume knew why-they get to check her out-and he wanted to put a stop to this. Dang, he should've let her buy the longer skirt, even though she looks so good. Oh well, glare and bear it. For now.

'Mikan! Natsume!' came another cheery voice.

'Koko! What are you doing here?'

'FREE ICE-CREAM!' shouted Mochu, Kitsuneme and Koko at the same time.

'Go away,' grunted Natsume.

'Alright then,' Mochu replied, 'But first, Sakura-san, I would like ice-cream without the cream.'

At this, Mikan looked confused and Natsume smirked.

'I'll handle it,' he whispered and took a glass of water, shoved it to Mochu and smirked, '$4.50 please.'

'Mikan, help me pick this up?' said another co-worker.

'Sure!' she was about to bend down and pick the object up again when Natsume pulled her up, took the object and flung it at his co-worker's face.

'You're welcome.'

At the busstop

'So how's it?' Hotaru asked.

'I'm so tired from standing.' Mikan whined.

'I've never washed so many dishes in my life before,' groaned Natsume.

'Ah, well thank Kami that tomorrow will be our off day?'

'You're welcome, Ruka.' boomed a husky deep voice.
