*Sigh* Okay, I guess the quota for reviews was a little too high this time ¬_¬ so…we'll just keep it at 5 for every chapter, yeah?

Right then, because I'm tired and I need to get on with the stories today, or another few months will pass with NOTHING OCCURING, this will be a short chapter.

Also, I'd like to point out that I made a mistake. In that 1st chapter (I think) I said about Taruto visiting Pudding sometimes and then in the last chapter it had been ages since they had seen each other. Well when I realised I was like 'Oh for **** Sake!' as my best friend usually says ^_^"" Ah-heh! So, I'm sorry about that and I'll just make something up about it later on in another chapter ;)

Kisshu – Would you shut up!

Hazzard – Alright! Alright! Here's Chapter 11 - a Lettuce and Pai Chappie! ^_~

* ~ Chapter 11 = Why are you Crying? ~ *

Pai floated down to the front door nervously. He wasn't sure how this was going to play out. She might turn him away. She might be scared of him. She might even go all Mew Mew on his butt or something (A/N - Hee! Hee! Lol ^_^).

He sighed, then took a deep breathe and did the polite human action of knocking on the door. After a moment or two the door opened slowly reveiling a girl with long green hair and glasses. She half hid behind the door so Pai couldn't really see her properly.

"Y-yes?" the girl asked.

"Does Retasu Midorikawa live here?" he asked putting on a brave voice.

"Um...can I ask who wants her and why?" the quiet girl asked him.

"Err, never mind. I only wanted to talk to her. I'm a friend, you see, I just wanted to say hello," he smiled and turn to walk away from the house and probably go back to Ichigo's house, "Sorry to disturb you."

"Wait!" the girl lept out of the house after him and grabbed his wrist to stop him. Pai looked around and felt like such an idiot as he realised that Retasu Midorikawa was the girl all along, "Pai?"

It was silent for a moment. Neither of them knew what to do.

"Retasu, why are you crying?" Pai asked, he felt a pang in his stomach, "I'll go."

"No! Don't!" Retasu cried. She then let go of his wrist and wrapped her arms around him crying into his side, "I don't want you to leave."

"But you're crying?" he told her confused, as he placed his hands on her shoulders.

"I'm crying because you came back! I'm crying because I missed you!" she explained.

The horrible pang in Pai's stomach faded away to nothing and was replace by so much love it surprised him. He immediately, as of intinctly, wrapped his arms around her to return the hug and whispered sweetly in her ear,

"I missed you too and I think...I found I love you."

^_^ Aw, I'm like a little match maker - That really shouldn't be my job :S

Kisshu - Well I don't know, you're not that bad at it.

Hazzard - Shut up, Kish! ¬_¬ You're only saying that cause I got you and Ichigo together.

Ichigo - Yeah, that job really doesn't suit you, Hazzard.

Hazzard - And you're only saying that for the exact same reason! -_- Anyway, remember to read and review peoples ;)

Lv Lv Hazzard ^_^ x x (+ Ichigo and Kisshu)
