Chapter 3

Ken fell off. Did... did Crawford just smile at him?

"I thought you wanted cake."

Seeing Crawford's cold eyes, Ken thought *No... it couldn't have been.*

~*~*~*~*~*~*

Ken stared at the menu in awe. "Sugoi... so many cakes!*

Crawford ignored the small dog that sat in the seat next to him and ordered a cup of tea.

"I want the special, the Star-shaped one, the..."

Crawford hid a smile as Ken rattled off not the names in the menu, but his own version of the cakes in the menus.

"Eh... ok, sir."

Ken smiled and gave Crawford a huge smile. "Thanks!"

Crawford shrugged. "You deserve it."

They sat there awkwardly until the cake and tea finally arrived. Ken's eyes lit up and he immediately dug in.

"OISHIIII!!!!!!! Arigatou, Brad!"

Crawford put down his cup quickly, coughing. Ken paled.

"Ah... um... sumimasen! I didn't mean to call you that!"

Crawford shook his head, saying quietly, "It's all right. We've known each other for a while now. I'm your manager... you shouldn't have to call me Crawford when the rest of your group doesn't."

Ken nodded. "Okay..."

Crawford continued to sip his tea and Ken looked up silently. *Hm... maybe he doesn't hate me...*

*God I want to lick that icing off his lips...*

Finally, Ken finished his cakes and they left the store. They got into his car and Crawford began to drive.

"That was really good, Brad! Thank you sooooooo much!"

Crawford nodded. "If you ever want anything, just tell me!"

Ken grabbed Crawford by the arm when Crawford suddenly pressed the accelerator. "BRAD! STOP!"

Ken blinked when Crawford screeched to a halt. "Fine. I stopped. Happy?"

Ken let go, saying nothing. He gasped when Crawford suddenly leaned over him.

*God... he tastes sweet...*
