"Ughh..."
The nausea was getting to Miyuki. Could she have possibly caught Hikaru's little cold?

"Miyuki-chan~ Are you okay?" A concerned Hunny asked.

"I - Uh - No.. Hunny, I don't feel well at all." Whimpered Miyuki.

"Aii. This isn't good. Let's get her some pills so she can get through this and we can diagnose her later." Remedied Kaoru.

"That's a great idea Kaoru, I can't let my group down after we've worked this hard for today." Agreed Miyuki.

"Alright, Miyuki. Here is some cold relief pills and an asprin." Said Haruhi as she handed Miyuki a glass of water and two pills.

Kyouya hands Miyuki a 1-liter bottle of Smart Water. "Here, keep hydrated so you don't overwork yourself and faint on stage."

"Thanks...Kyouya." This guy could work on his delivery a little bit. Does he WANT me to faint or something?

"Miyuki!" Cried Emily. "We're almost up! Tell me you're feeling all better for this!"

"Calm down Emily.. I took some medicine and that should hold me over for the performance." Assured Miyuki.

"Great, great." A relieved Emily sighs. "I was worried that I might have to take your place! And you know I DO NOT sing well! We have those scores on SingStar as proof!" (AN: SingStar is a kaoroke game that you have to sing in correct pitch to. Check it out!)

"Worry no more." Says Miyuki. "Alright. Let's do this!"

Miyuki gets on stage with her band and she looks out on the huge crowd having a blast today.

"Hello guys!" Miyuki boomed. "We're The Whos! And we'll be singing 'Seven days of lonely' for you next!"

The crowd roars. The band plays. Miyuki sings. Everyone on and off the stage has a great time.

"Thank you!" Miyuki says as her band exits off the stage.

"Whoo! That was great! I think we just won this thing." Says Scott.

"Yeah!" All four of them cried out.

Tamaki and the group walks up to the group through the crowd and praises them on their performance.

"Hey, you were great today." A low rough voice speaks behind her.

Jake! Miyuki smiles at him.

"Thanks."

"We should hang out soon and catch up." Says Jake.

"Yeah, that would be fun."

"I'll catch you later M, it's my turn next." Jake winks at Miyuki before walking to the stage.

"Who was that?" Emily pops out from nowhere with a glass of lemonade and three churros.

"That - was Jake." Says Miyuki. "He used to lived next door to me back when I lived in the States."

"Oo, he's a cutie~." Says Emily, lowering down her Wayfarers to get a better look at him.

Miyuki feels a tug on her dress and sees that it was Hunny wanting her attention.

"Hey Hunny~." Smiles Miyuki. He's just like a little kid, she thinks, so cute.

"Miyuki~ Let's go celebrate!"

"What are we celebrating?"

"We're celebrating your accomplishment today! Singing in front of a huge crowd and it being a success! It's a big deal! We can go to this bakery I saw on our way coming here.." Beamed Hunny.

Haha. So it was all just about wanting cake after all. Oh, why not. We should celebrate after working so hard.

"Alright!" Agreed Miyuki. "Let's go eat some cake!"

And off they went. By foot. To the bakery Hunny had his eyes on and was probably thinking about ever since he passed it.

"Wow, this place is beautiful." Miyuki was speechless.

The little shop had tables in front, shaded by an awning overhead. The inside was cool from the central air conditioning - a wonderful feeling to be breathing crisp cool air. The smells seems to purfume the bakery with macaroons and all kinds of cake. The walls were painted a creme color remenisent of the creme in profiteroles. And the floor is a nice light tan hardwood with two seater and four seated round tables, glass setting on a stainless steel table with matching stainless steel chairs. The display case was FILLED with cakes and all other kinds of baked goods. In back behind the display case, you can see a little barista place for coffee and espresso orders.

This place was no joke. It was themed and made to be a bakery, destined to be.

And it was probably destined for Hunny to order 8 slices of cake to eat - all by himself.

The rest of us were not so indulgent as Hunny was. Some ordered a coffee with a biscotti. Some ordered a dozen macaroons and half a dozen creme puffs.

And some(one) was calculating in his head on how this business operates so successfully. (Hint Hint, he wears glasses)

About an hour passed before everyone was done eating and relaxing before the gang decided to go to someplace else to continue their adventure.

"I could do a little shopping." Says Miyuki outloud.

"I can too." Agrees Emily.

"They say little." Whispers Scott.

"But what they mean is." Continues David.

"Endless hours of walking through stores?" Finishes Hikaru.

Scott and David gave a firm nod.

*Approximately 3 hours later*

"Woah! I'm tired out!" Says Emily as she collaspes onto a bench near the fountain in the center of a mall.

"I would have never thought we've bought so much." Says Miyuki as she collaspes next to Emily.

"You guys are finally tired ey?" Asks Scott.

"Are we ever." Replies Emily.

Everyone and their purchases cramps into a limo headed to Miyuki's house. As they get closer to the front of the house, they see another car drive away. Once everyone gets through the door and heads to the entertainment room, where the tv is, Miyuki's mom called for her to step in the living room for a bit. Emily takes Miyuki's bag to the entertainment room so they can share what they've bought with each other.

"Miyuki honey, look who's here!" Cries Momma Miyuki.

And sitting in an armchair, there he was. No other than Jake himself.

"Jake..." Miyuki started. "What are you doing over here?"

"Well, I decided to pay a visit to your mom and dad since I was here and free." Smiles Jake.

"That's nice of you." Smiles Miyuki.

"Why don't you stay for the night?" Suggested Momma Miyuki. "I'm sure you guys have a lot to catch up on."

"That'll be great." Says Jake.

"Just like old times I guess." Says Miyuki.

"I'll be back with some clothes then," Says Jake as he starts for the door.

"Oh no! Not neccessary!" Cried Momma Miyuki. "I'm pretty sure Miyuki's dad has some clothes he doesn't wear anymore. You can wear those."

"Thanks," Replies Jake, with a smile.

"Go hang out with Miyuki's friends while I get the clothes and the guest room ready." Says Momma Miyuki as she heads for the stairs.

"So..." Jake draws out the word. "Where are your friends?" He stares into Miyuki's hazel colored eyes a second longer than he should have.

"They're in the other room, come on," Miyuki gestures to the room down the hall that's filled with laughter and a mix of conversations.

*On the flip side*

"Oh wow! Miyuki sure shopped a lot! These bags are heavy!" Complained Emily.

"You offered to carry them, don't complain now~" Teased Scott.

"Just a few steps longer Emily-Chan!" cheers Hunny.

"Why can't you be more encouraging like him?" Scowls Emily, in a playful way of course.

Once they all got into the room and made themselves comfortable, everyone was play a game that Hunny thought of. It consisted of saying what kind of cake you would be and what you would be decorated and served with. (Come on, it's Hunny, how did you not figure that one out?)

Everyone soon got into the gaming atmosphere and got really detailed with describing their individual cake, when Miyuki and another person - Jake, walks into the room.
