This was written while I was in a weird goofy mood
It was a normal afternoon at the Koneko no Sumu Le. Aya, Yohji,
and Ken
were setting up for the afternoon rush of school girls. Suddenly Omi
darted in, looking scared, and begin peering through the windows as if
looking for some-one or making sure he hadn't been spotted. Turning
to the
others, he said hurriedly
"I don't have time to explain but this is veryveryveryvery VERY
important!
No mater who comes in, no matter who asks. I was never here.
Got it? I
was never here"
Finishing his spiel, Omi dashed upstairs slamming his
door behind him.
"Oi!! What's with the pretty boy?" Yohji
asked looking up from watering
some lilies.
"Yeah, it's not like him to skip out on work like
that." Ken commented
juggling to keep a hold of some pots. "It must be pretty important
though."
Aya simply glared at the stairs where Omi had
disappeared, but before he
could comment the first wave of schoolgirls poured through the doors.
There was no more time to discuss Omi's strange behavior as the girls
cooed,
flirted and sighed. Yohji was happily flirting back with them trying
to
find one over eighteen when he heard,
"Oh aren't they so CUUUUUUTE!!!!"
It was common enough statement, one that Yohji heard
about fifty times a
day, but what happened afterwards was most definitely weird. All the
girls
who had been clustered around him left and joined the throng around the
entrance to the shop. Yohji blinked at his abandonment by his fans.
Looking at Aya and Ken he saw that their fans had left them as well.
Ken
had a relieved, but baffled look on his face, while Aya stood with
his
normal glare leveled at the girls because they STILL weren't buying
anything.
"Stop getting in the way of customers," Aya
said, practically growling
at the girls.
Finally the crowd of girls parted to let the newcomers
into the shop,
allowing his first glimpse of them. When he saw them his jaw dropped
in
shock, standing in the door were three elementary school
children. He had
lost his admirers to CHILDREN!!!!
The eldest looked about 12 and was a definite
heartthrob-in-training.
Silky golden hair haloed a face dominated by large eyes that where a
stunning shade of blue, and bright smile. He accepted the girls
adoration
as if it was the most natural thing in the world and was used to receiving
it. And the two boys flanking the mini-Adonis were no less
impressive.
The taller of the two, who looked about 11 had dark hair
and golden
eyes. He hovered close to the blonde boy, tense and alert for any
possible
threat to his companion. The first impression Yohji had was that the
boy
was a bodyguard, but why would anyone have a bodyguard that was so young?
Yohji watched as "golden eyes" gaze met with
Aya's. In that moment
Yohji was certain he saw lighting crash as the two locked glares. The
scene
reminded him of two powerful warriors sizing each other up before a battle.
The youngest at about 10, reminded Yohji of an overeager
puppy, with his
brown hair, and big brown eyes. In his hands he held a brightly
colored
box topped with a huge bow. Yohji watched as the boy gravitated to
Ken, and
soon the two were chatting like old friends.
"Excuse me, Sir." a kind perky voice spoke up.
Yohji looked down to see the mini-Adonis standing before
him. 'SHIT!!
How'd this kid get so close without me noticing? First Omi's weird
behavior, then my fans desert me, and now this KID sneaks up on me.
Today
has just gotten too weird'
"Sir? Excuse me, Sir?" The mini-Adonis
spoke up again.
"Uh, Hello, welcome to the Koneko no Sumu Le.
What can I help you with
today?" Yohji finally responded. Up close Yohji could see the
Clamp school
badge on his uniform.
"Yes well. My name is Nokoru Inomoya,
representing the Clamp Campus
Elementary Division. My companions and I are looking for our
sempai. We
thought we might find him here. Do you know a Mamoru
Taketori?" The boy
asked brightly
Several thoughts ran though Yohji's mind at that moment
which included,
'Omi, a highly skilled and deadly assassin, is hiding from these BRATS?!!!
and 'Oh dear god please don't let Aya hear this kid asking for a
Taketori."
Finally when his brain caught up with him Yohji
responded, "No, I don't
know a Mamoru Taketori. If you like I can check our records and find
out if
we delivered any flowers to him/"
The boy hid his disappointment well, but Yohji still
caught a flash of
it
in his eyes.
"No that won't be necessary. Thank you
anyway."
Yohji help back a sign of relief as the boy turned to
go, but then one
of the girls piped up, " It's too bad Omi isn't here today. If
he was would
it just be PERFECT!"
"Omi? Who is Omi?", Nokoru asked
"uh One of our co-workers, he had a project to work
on so he's not in
today." Yohji answered somewhat truthfully, hoping Omi wouldn't
kill him
for even letting these odds kids know his name.
"Do you think he could know Mamoru-sempai ?"
Nokoru asked hopefully
"I doubt it, we know all his friends, and he's
never mentioned anyone by
that name."
"Oh alright then," turning to his friend
Nokoru called out, "Souh.
Akira. Mamoru-sempai isn't here."
The boy who had been talking to Ken looked up
disappointed, then looked
at the box in his hands. Yohji than saw him say something to Ken and
hand
the box to him, before joining Nokoru.
Separating "golden eyes" from Aya proved a bit
more difficult. Nokoru
kept tugging at his sleeve saying "Souh it's time to go. Souh
We're
finished here. Stop staring at the nice man, we're leaving."
Finally it was Aya who broke the deadlock with a cold
familiar command,
"If you're not going to buy something, get out!"
Nokoru blinked in surprise, "Oh in that case. I'd
like to buy a rose for
every lady here." Finishing with a smile and broad wave of his
arm.
Yohji winced at the volume of squeals that erupted at
those words.
Yohji vowed as he and the others hurriedly dressed and readied the roses
for
all the girls, that he would get an explanation from Omi no matter what it
took.
Finally the last rose had been handed out and paid
for. The girls
headed home talking about how lucky they were that day, and the three odd
boys politely gave their thanks and left.
"That was completely bizarre!" Yohji
said as they worked to close the
shop for the day.
"That Akira kid was really nice, too bad I couldn't
talk him into
joining the soccer team." Ken remarked, sweeping up the floor.
"What's with the box he gave you?" Yohji asked
"He said it was for his sempai, but since he wasn't
here, he didn't want
it to go waste and wanted us to have it"
"Open it up. Let's find out what it is"
After carefully removing the bow from the box, Ken
pulled off the lid to
reveal a strawberry pie, covered with whipped cream, chocolate shavings,
and
strawberry garnishes.
"Hey! strawberry pie. That's Omi's
favorite."
"Omi has a lot of explaining to do"
