A/N: Here's another chapter! I realized all the typos in the last, so I'll go back and fix those… eventually. xD Thank you to all my lovely reviewers and favoriteters (spell check is going crazy right now xD)… –blows kisses- Also, I brought down the rating to T, because I'm not sure if it's going to get as intense (lemony) as I had first intended. It still may, depending on the way my imagination is going. ^^
SPICE!
Chapter Four: Night Out
Both Len and Kaito had been eager to escape the wrath of Rin's stare, which had only grown in intensity as they inched towards the door.
Upon opening the door, the two had booked, laughing until the got to the end of the block.
"That was fun." Len commented, his hands on his knees and panting.
"Is… Rin -pantpant- always like that?" Kaito asked simultaneously with catching his breath.
"Yup." Len straightened himself, "Let's go to the other side of town?"
"What?" Kaito asked, his eyebrow raised, "You mean the 'bad' side of town. Where all the prostitutes and gangsters are?" his tone was almost incredulous.
"Sounds like fun, huh?" Len replied with a wink, "It's not so bad. We're not going to get shot or anything."
"Are you sure?" Kaito inquired, his tone childishly scared, "I mean... I heard there's like… a million fights a night."
"We'll be fine," Len assured him, "Just don't make eye contact with anyone. Especially scantily-clad women. Also, they can smell fear." He joked.
Kaito gulped.

After walking for about two hours, they stepped inside a cheerfully painted place filled with soulful scents Southern American comfort foods.
An older woman walked up, her hair obviously died the brilliant shade of blond, and winked, "How many of ya han'some fellers are there?" she asked cheerfully.
"Just us two." Len answered, and the woman nodded and led them to a booth table by the window.
It had a perfect view of a street fight going on outside, and Kaito couldn't help but stare at the two people beat each other up.
"Ah…" Len said, glancing outside almost nonchalantly, "Looks like Dell's gotten himself in another fight again."
"You know that guy?" Kaito blinked.
"Mmhm," he answered boredly, "That's Honne Dell, and the girl he's fighting is Megurine Luka."
Kaito didn't even bother to hide how absolutely awkward he felt.
A swift punch was made to the face, and one went down.
"Aaaand, Dell lost. Again. For the fifth time this week."
"It's only Tuesday…" Kaito offered quietly.
"Yup."
A very uneasy looking waitress came up, her silvery hair tied back in a low pony tail, her eyes unable to make eye contact, "Uhmm… m-may I t-take your o-order?" she stuttered.
"Not going to say hi to me, Haku-Chan?" Len winked at her flirtatiously, and the girl jumped, her face flushing several shades of red.
"U-uhm… I-I-I-I'm sorry, Len-Kun… I just thought… y-y-you d-d-didn't like me c-c-cause you never called m-m-me back… b-but its okay… I-I wouldn't call m-me back either…" she fidgeted, switching her weight from one leg to the other and scratching at her neck, "Wh-what would you like t-t-t-to drink?"
"Just water for me, and what would you like Kaito?"
"Root beer float," he chirped, so happy to see an ice cream related drink on the menu.
Haku shakily wrote the orders on her pad, "I'll b-be right back w-with those…" she muttered, and stole one last look at Len before she scampered off, tripping and falling on her face. She got back off and ran away with a whimper.
"Oops… if I'd known she worked here, I wouldn't have come." Len sighed.
"Is she an ex-girlfriend?" Kaito asked.
"Something like that," Len said wistlessly, then changed his demeanor, "So!" he began, "Tell me something about you so we can start a conversation." He placed his elbow on the table and leaned against the back of his hand
God, he's pretty! Kaito mentally exclaimed.
"Well, uhmm…" Kaito thought for a moment, "I like icecream and pop music?" it was more of question than a statement, testing to see if that was an appropriate answer.
It must not have been, because Len laughed, "You're weird, but I like you." He stated, and although Len was the one with a crush, Kaito found himself blushing.
This guy must have definitely been a witch.
