At Aki's house…
"Ok, so here's the deal, we say we need to speak to my father-get in, tell her all the bad things he's done and then while I am doing that you two find Millerna and get her seated at the table to do the same. Fanel should show up sometime shortly after that and then presto! No pussy for the wussy!" Chid explained.
Chid stuck out his hand, "So you guys with me?"
Tenchi put his hand on top of Chid's and Aki put hers on top of Tenchi's.
"Let's do it…" Chid said smirking.

Van stuck his head out the door and "Celena" also stuck hers out. Hitomi opened her door and was slightly embarrassed to see Van staring at her with his mouth flat on the floor…in horror.
"T-t-omi?" he said his voice quivering with fear at the snot, murky green color while simultaneously shoving Celena back into the room and slamming the door shut on one of her fingers.
"OUCH!" she hollered from behind the door.
Hitomi blushed and went on about her business saying she had a date she needed to be getting to.
"Maybe I don't want to date her…" Van thought looking at how horrible the dress and she looked. "The 80's was a huge mistake…"
"Damn it, Van!" Celena said throwing the door back, "those were my fingers!!!"
"Shut up Dill- I mean, Celena! We gotta follow her!" Van said frankly running down the stairs to catch up with her. "Millerna said for us to call her so she can meet us there so gimme your cell phone," Van demanded
"But…"
"No buts, give it!"
"But…why do I have to get the butt end of this deal?"
"You're not; you're getting those new appliances aren't you?"
"But if you can't even afford a cell phone how are you gonna buy me those toys?"
"Dill- I mean, Celena, SHUT UP."
The two took the bus that left right after Hitomi's and followed her to the restraunt. There was very little room on the bus, so Celena was sitting in his lap. He was in his usual, casual clothes- a white wife beater, khakis, and a flannel button up shirt, unbuttoned. With Celena sitting in his lap though, they looked like pimp and ho.
They followed Hitomi all the way to the Chez La Fleur*. There, they watched her step off the bus and be stared at by the waiters. "Damn guy didn't even have the decency to pick her up…" Van muttered with his teeth clenched.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
On top of the Chez La Fleur, Aki was dressed to the nines in a matrix like suit and sat in the bird's nest position. She picked up her walkie talkie, "Breaker Breaker 119, breaker breaker 119..."
"Yes?" Tenchi responded.
"The eagle has landed…I repeat the eagle has landed…"
"Copy; over and out."
Ironically enough, Tenchi's mother and father had decided to eat out nice that night and this was the place they had picked. Tenchi had taken apart his walkie talkie and put the mike in his shirt collar and made an earpiece so he could hear Aki. He was in perfect view of Barbie's table. Although he hadn't arrived, this was the type of restraunt that put up a huge sign with your name on it. It was good sight range.
"Stan come, in Stan," he muttered trying not to be conspicuous to his family.
Chid was in the bathroom and picked up his walkie talkie.
"Copy that Bird eye, whatcha' got?"
"The eagle has landed."
"So the eagle lands before the Barbie doll?"
"10-4 good buddy."
"K. I'm going radio silent Bird eye, just let me know when the Babie doll arives in the Porsche."
"Over and out."
Chid sighed as he waited for his unruly genetics provider to arrive. He stepped out of the stall and a man walked in a suit. Chid grabbed the bottles of lotion and soap. "Would you like for me to turn the water on for you sir?" he asked very properly.
"Yes thank you."
Upon leaving, Chid received a five dollar tip. He smiled as he was handed the bill and heard Tenchi in his ear. "Babs is here, repeat Babs is here."
"Showtime!" he said running his fingers through his blonde hair, his blue eyes flicking with mischief.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
At Van's place…
"Hey Van?" Merlu called as she scratched on his apartment door. "HMN…" she sounded as she looked next door.
"If he's out with that ho', I promise I'll scratch him up so bad he'll be catnip."
She beat on Hitomi's door for a moment and then realized that they were both gone. "OH BUT NO!" she hollered pouncing down the steps. "THAT'S IT!" she yelled taking off to search every fancy restraunt in town.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Allen entered in and let the waiter show him to his table. There he saw a girl in a putrid, ugly dress with horrible make-up and hair do to match.
"Uh, I'm sorry," ma'am he said, "but this table is reserved."
"Allen," she said with a distressed tone, "it's me- Hitomi and where have you been? You're thirty minutes late!" she whined.
Allen's eyes could've popped out of his head. "Hitomi?!?!?!"
"Yea…you don't think I'm pretty all dressed up or something?"
"Uhhh…"
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Van and Dilly, I mean "Celena", had climbed up the side of the restraunt to the top. Aki had her back turned but heard the metal rustling. She ran over to the side of the building and peered over. She gasped and quickly got her backpack and hid behind the chimney to where the two couldn't see her.
"Bird Eye! Bird Eye! COME IN BIRD EYE!"
"Bird Eye here."
"The Raven has flown the coup. I repeat, the Raven has flown the coup."
"Copy that. Stan, the Raven has flown the coup. The Raven has flown the coup."
Chid smiled. "One more person before I go on stage."
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Van and Celena reached the top of the building.
"The women's bathroom is somewhere up under here…" Van searched the various grates on top of the building. Aki was scooting herself in the shadows, trying to make it back down before she was noticed.
"Got it bro," Celena said.
"Man that girl is manly looking…" Aki thought to herself.
"Go to it man," Van said doing the special handshake with Celena.
"As long as I get my stuff…you got the purse?"
"Right here." He handed her a purse full of all the goodies a girl needs. That is a girl like Celena…
She pulled out a flathead screwdriver and got the grate off the shaft and lowered herself into the bathroom. Van replaced it and screwed it back into place. He looked down one last time.
"You know where to send her right?"
"Right back up here, through that door I just realized I could have used."
"It's locked from the outside." He gave him a thumbs up and a small smile.
Aki realized this was her chance. She bolted across the roof to get to the fire escape, but Van saw something black flash by out of the corner of his eye.
"HEY!"
Aki raced to the side and jumped it, but slipped. Van leaned over the side and grabbed the petite girl's wrists, saving her life.
"AKI?!?!?!"
"Bird eye! Bird eye! The Raven has me in his beak!"
"WHAT?!?!" Van said wide eyed.
"I'm so, so sorry Van-sensei. I'll never do this again I promise! They talked me into it! I know it's wrong and nosey but they said we wouldn't get caught!"
Aki began to sob and Van began to hoot and holler with laughter.
"You're not in trouble! Why would you be in trouble?"
"Cuz we know you like Miss Kanzaki a lot and we are ruining her date with Schezar-san because we don't think he's good enough for Miss Kanzaki…" she said between sobs.
Van put a lop-sided smile on his face. "So, I wasn't the only one, huh?" He gave Aki a big hug and a reassuring pat on the back before he took out Dilly's cell phone and called Millerna.
"Hello?"
"Millie?"
"Yea,"
"It's time. Chez La Fleur."
"THAT'S WHERE HE ALWAYS TOOK ME! THAT'S OUR RESTRAUNT!"
Van held the phone away from his ear as Millerna screamed more complaints, already starting to cry. He just shook his head and told her to go in and get stuff started. She'd be there in ten minutes.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
"So, what would you like Hitomi?" Allen said, with his pale blue eyes darting here and there, trying to avoid that hideous dress and hairdo. It looked like swamp thing. It made her look as fat as the incredible hulk.
"The most expenisve meal on the menu," Hitomi said folding it and leaning with both elbows on the table.
"Uhh…" Allen said reaching for his wallet under the table.
"You are paying, right? That's what I want then…"
"Oh, boy…" Allen thought.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Merlu was at the Chez La Lune when she saw Millerna Aston fly by in her convertible.
"Hmnn…" she purred to herself. "If Millerna's around, the so is Allen…then so is Hitomi…then so is Van…"
She hailed a cab and told him to step on it and follow the red convertible.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
After a while, the waiter had finally brought the two their food. Tenchi was still waiting on his.
"Come in Stan, come in Stan…we got paraphernalia life forms…"
That was Chid's queue. He strolled out of the bathroom and saw his father's blonde hair shining like a golden ray of light that had been tarnished from too much sun.
He strutted up to the table just as the waiter sat the food down.
"Hi, genetical information provider! Glad we had that father-son bonding moment earlier. Glad you bought me a dinner."
Hitomi's mouth dropped straight to the table. "Chid…Chid…Chid…" was all she managed to spit out.
The same exact thing came from a worried Barbie's mouth.
"Oh, did you not know that Miss Kanzaki? Yes, that's right- he's my father! And you know what's even better? I'm an illegit!"
Hitomi covered her mouth in sheer shock and disgust. "Allen," she said, looking to him, not wanting to believe it. "Is this true?"
"Uhhh…" was all Barbie could manage to say.
"Of course it's true; look at me and then at him! And my name is PRINCE for goodness sake! I mean c'mon, what other nymphode do you know that loves and admires Prince so much that he would name his kid after him?"
"Oh my gosh…Allen" Hitomi said very detached.
"Van was right…"
"Hitomi I can explain!" he cried.
"Oh yea- he's really good at doing that!" Chid chipped in. "Like earlier I wanted him to stay home and play video games with me, but I don't ask him to do it that often. But he made the wise, fatherly decision and told me to stay home and study while he went out on this lovely date with you. Isn't that great? He is like the greatest, isn't he?"
"ALLEN!" Hitomi screamed throwing her napkin at him.
"Oh that's it…" she thought to herself. "No one should treat their child like that; I don't care if I do make a fool of myself."
"Hitomi! Wait!"
"Mission complete!" Chid said into the walkie talkie discretly while his father was trying to explain everything.
This time Aki answered him back:
"Well, get ready to pass the ball off to the next player, Aston has arrived."
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
"So what happened down there?" Van asked her.
"It seems Chid just ruined his "perfect" plalyboyness by exposing that he is Schezar-san's son."
"HAHAHA! I LOVE IT!" Van picked up the phone and called Millerna. She was on the front doorsteps.
"Millie?"
"Yea?"
"Meet Celena in the women's bathroom."
"Gotcha'."
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Millerna Aston came in and the waiter automatically let her in. They were so used to seeing her and Allen together they didn't even think twice.
She immediately headed straight to the bathroom and meet up with the girl named Celena.
"Celena?" she said curiously looking at the girl leaned up against the bathroom wall.
"That's me."
"Oh hi, I'm Millie."
"Nice to meet you," she said taking the outstretched hand and shaking it very manly. Millerna noticed how heavy her purse was. She wondered what in the world could be in it.
"I like your outfit!" she said just making chit-chat.
"Yours isn't so bad either," Celena replied speaking of the black strapless ball gown with matching elbow length gloves. She adorned her ears, fingers, and neck with strands of real pearls.
"Well, let's get to work," she said leading the way out.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Aki went to the edge of the building and peered down the side of it. Chid was standing outside, just waiting for his angry father to take him home at the end of the night.
Just then, he saw Merlu get out of a cab and race her way in.
He picked up the walkie talkie.
"The cat is chasing the Raven…the cat is chasing the raven…"
"Got it," Aki said and Van perked his ears up at this.
"Miss Merlu is here- most likely looking for you."
"Oh no…" Van thought.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Millerna and Celena walked in. "See if you can sit with those men until I give you the signal."
"What's the signal?" Celena asked.
Millerna flipped her off.
"WHY YOU-"
"NO! That's the signal! When I flip Allen off, that's your signal to come in!"
"Oh. I get it now…" she nodded in understanding gracefully approaching the three men in the shadows.
"Hi boys," she said shrugging her shoulders. "My name is Celena and I need a place to sit for the moment because my blonde friends over there need a moment alone."
She pointed in the direction of Hitomi, Allen, and Millerna. Once again, Allen was startled to see someone 'pop' in on their date. Hitomi had been acting like a maniac; she was eating like a caveman and Millerna had a feeling that she didn't want to be on that date, even though she didn't believe her earlier.
The three men seemed very startled and interrupted. The two in the very back looked to the man in the pinstripe suit with the messy, tossed hair.
He spoke.
"Yes, you can sit and speak with us until you get your seat back. I'm Ken Olf. Perhaps you've heard of me? I'm a romance novelist. And these are my cohorts, Moleman-a teacher and Newton another teacher from the local high school."
"Ken Olf, huh?" Celena said as she sneered. "On second thought, maybe I'll just stand around like an imbasal than to associate with a scumbag like you!"
She slapped him…
Both girls slapped each guy at once and the room was split in which fight to look at.
"Allen Schezar! I can NOT believe you! One week, you're a night in shinning armor and you're calling me your princess and then this hoar shows up and you're all ogling over her! That's not fair to our unborn children! What about that house you promised me with that white picket fence? HUH? Where did that go? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH MY LIFE NOW! YOU YOU YOU HOMEWRECKER!!!!
Then Millerna flipped him off. Celena saw it and as she watched Millerna walk out in tears.
Hitomi sat and wiped all the pasta sauce off her rounded, small face as she let Millerna's words ring in her head. "What was I thinking?"
Celena came up and slammed her purse down on the table. "Hey stud!" she said with a seductive wink. "You remember me? I was your Russian mail order bride."
Again, Hitomi could not believe her eyes.
"ALLEN, what the f@#$ is this?!?!!" she said with a hint of anger coming through her words.
"I swear, I KNOW nothing about HER!" he said waving his arms about in ten different directions.
"HMPH!" Hitomi grunted. "I'm tired of this!" she said having seen enough. She violently grabbed her hair down. "I can't believe a word you say!"
She threw the cloth napkin in Barbie's face.
"Oh this is perfect," Celena muttered.
Celena reached into that ten pound purse of hers and grabbed a can of hairspray and a lighter…
"I'll wait for Hitomi to do something first, but I'm still concerned about Ken Olf and Moleman and Newton over there…why are the associating with someone like him?"
"You just waltz into my life and force me on this date, everyone implied that you were just gonna use me for the sex, I thought we could be friends and this would help me adjust to the school…BUT NO!" Hitomi screamed clenching her fists tightly. "You're just like the rest of the principals of the world…"
She reached down and grabbed a black stilletto off of her foot.
"You're just a stupid ol' male hoar!"
She fired the stilletto at his face and it hit drawing a little blood from his forehead.
"ALRIGHT MISS KANZAKI!" Tenchi stood up in his seat cheering for his new, favorite teacher.
Allen grimaced and then became irate. "You FU$%^&' spoiled my devilishly handsome looks! YOU FU$%^&' B#$%!!!!!"
The whole restaurant was up in knots now. What was going to happen next?
Celena creeped around to the back of Hitomi and said, "Throw the other one; run up to the roof- he's waiting for you there…"
Hitomi's eyes darted from side to side while she thought. "Van?"
Allen lunged at Hitomi and she quickly hit him over the head with the next shoe drawing more blood with the tip end of the heel. She felt bad for him, but oh well.
He tried to get back up and pursue Hitomi, but was met face to face with Celena.
"You're hot," he said.
"You picked me out."
"Well, I paid for you so come on…"
"Hey, hold on…take it slower, come give me a hug…"
Allen embraced the tall, lanky, pale girl who was taller than him and then leaned in to give her a big wet one…and he did. Celena winced and gave the STD stud a big smooch until she couldn't take it anymore… Celena lit the lighter on his hair.
FWOOOSH!!!
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! MY HAIR'S ON FIRE! MY HAIR'S ON FIRE!!! MY BEAUTIFUL HAIR!!!"
"Oh my…" Ken Olf said rushing to Allen's rescue and grabbing a pitcher of water to throw on it.
"You shouldn't use so much hair spray babe," Celena said with a seductive wink pulling out a heavy duty can of hair spray with the lighter.
Flick…
FWOOSH!!!
There was a long, bright orange flame that flicked across the table and Allen was in shock for his hair again. Ken Olf backed away searching frantically for another pitcher.
"Come in STAN! COME IN STAN! Are you hearing all this?!?!?" Tenchi screamed into his mike. "FLOWER IN MAY!!! ARE YOU GETTING THIS?!?!"
"What's that bird eye?" Aki suddenly screamed catching Van's attention.
"OH MY GOSH! KANZAKI JUST STILLETTOED MR. SCHEZAR-SAN AND HE'S BLEEDING AND THEN THIS HO' IS LIKE GOING ALL PYRO-MANIAC ON HIM AND KEN OLF IS HERE AND HE WAS HELPING BARBIE!"
Merlu burst through the host's stand and marched her way to Allen's table just to see Hitomi running up the stairs.
Merlu grabbed Barbie by his collar and pushed him up against the wall. "WHERE IS SHE GOING?!?!?" she said her teeth and nails suddenly seeming razor sharp. "I DON'T KNOW AND I DON'T CARE!" Allen said shoving Merlu off of him.
"Errrggh…You'll pay for that!" she said exposing her claw like nails and her kitty like lighting reflexes. She socked him the the jaw with a nice right jab and then pursued Hitomi's path up the stairs.
Allen started to follow but Celena stepped in the way.
"Where ya' going big boy?" she said holding a coke can and a lighter.
Allen was pretty banged up. He had a swollen jaw, his hair was burned black on the ends, and he had gashes here and there from Hitomi's stilettos.
"Shut up B@#$!"
"Uh-uh-uh…" Celena said waving a finger and turning around. She light the lighter fluid in the coke can over her shoulder and it shot and hit Allen right on his nose creating a splitting crack. She giggled.
Tenchi's eyes popped out of his head. "AKI! YOU HAVE TO GET DOWN HERE! THIS IS GREAT!" he said recapping what all just happened to Van-sensei and her.
Allen grabbed Celena by her hair and … the wig came off!!!
"Uh-oh…" Celena thought with a cheezy grin. "I'm older than I look! Please don't tell anyone I've gone grey!" She spun back around from digging her purse. This time she had a stun gun. She brandished it around in front of Allen's face.
"I won't have anymore of this!" said Ken.
"You're just as scummy as he is!" she yelled sticking the ray right below the man's nose. His sad seeming eyes just peered down at her.
"I don't know what you mean," he said pushing the stun gun back on her boobs.
POP. FWAAAAAAAASSSSSSSH.
Celena's front was now all wet. Celena wasn't Celena anymore.
Allen's eyes widened and then said, "I ALWAYS KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING FUNNY ABOUT YOU!!!" He lunged towards Dilly to choke him.
"I KISSED A F@#$%' MAN!!!" Allen screamed frantically.
Dilly doged out of the way and ran up the stais so quickly he passed Merlu as he pushed her out of his way. "SORRY!!!" he called frantically trying to make it to the top to warn Hitomi and Van of the two about to show up.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Hitomi was breathless and panting. She'd run so hard to get away from her boss that was such a scumbag. "I can't believe he is really like that!" she screamed to herself with tears in her eyes.
She just flat broke down on the landing before the roof. She had a horrible time expressing her feelings to guys anyway, she thought one, small date might help her out. She'd been single most of her life; she'd never really had a boyfriend. She'd always had crushes and watched the men that came in and out of her life from afar.
Sobs just poured out of her grief stricken eyes. "I just wanted to believe that something good could come out of this…I guess I'm kinda foolish and naïve like that…" she said with a sobering smile.
Her mascara was running down her face, she had bright green streaks across her face from the eyeshadow, and her mother's dress was ripped in the front to where she now had a train behind her, but worst of all, her favorite pair of stiletto's were ruined after bopping Babs on the head.
Faintly in the background, she could hear three sets of rapid footsteps approaching. There was yet another set of rapid footsteps behind her. "Miss Kanzaki!" the girl cried. It was Aki in her Agent 99 outfit.
"Miss Kanzaki, he's waiting for you! Go to him!" she yelled frantically. "I'm going to hold them off while you two get out of here…Go!"
Hitomi stood there with a confuzzled look on her face and then just nodded her head and agreed. She had a feeling it would be Van on the roof. She took off in the direction of the door, her dress dragging behind her.
Suddenly Dilly, Merlu, Allen, and Ken appeared all on the landing.
"I'm sorry; I'm afraid this part has been rented out for two special people and they are having their dinner. I'm the security and no one is allowed on the roof at this point," Aki said with a snobbish tone.
"Bulls@#$! You're one of my students!" Allen yelled.
Aki did a backflip or two with some fancy punches and kicks strung together on it at the end. She looked like a Japanese Chun Li. Ken and Allen stood there motionless, their mouths on the floor.
Dilly walked over to her, nodded , swiftly locked the door, and also took a defiant stance.
Merlu was the only one to challenge her slinking around, ready to pounce at any moment. She circled Aki, and Aki felt her every move.
Suddenly, Aki turned around abruptly and let a hi-kick rip into Merlu's face. "OH! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean for it to connect!!" Aki said with much remorse.
Merlu got back up and hissed, "that's it girlie!"
Needless to say, there was a knockdown, drag-out, catfight…Dilly just glared at Ken and Allen.
Ken mumbled something to Allen and Allen nodded his head. They both gave Heero Yuy death glares to Dilly and glanced over at the cloud of screeches and biting going on between Aki and Merlu.
"Who put you up to this?" Allen said sternly.
"No one…" Dilly said folding his arms reaching for his last trick.
"Someone did and I can't stand for it…I own this restraunt…I will not have people like you running a muck in here!"
Ken pounded his fist against the wall so hard that it shook.
"I told both of you scumbags! I AIN'T TELLIN' YA'!" Dilly hollered lighting a bottle rocket and sending it their way.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Allen screamed and was so startled he wet his pants.
Aki and Merlu finally stopped fighting…They both came out with scratches and blood, but they were evenly matched and exhausted.
"No hard feelings right, Miss Merlu?" Aki asked innocently.
"Hmph…" she growled as she folded her arms and proceeded down the stairs.
Ken just stood there with his dark eyes gazing towards the door.
"It's him, I just know it is," he muttered and walked down the stairs after the pansy and the tiger.
"WHEW!" Dilly sighed bending at the stomach slightly. "Van had really better love me for this one!"
He sat down on the landing next to Aki and turned his gaze over his shoulder at the door. He wondered what Van was doing…
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
Hitomi finally made it to the roof. She stopped and wiped a tear off her face with a flat, defiant hand. She then jerked her hair out of the pony tail and tilted her head up to the sky. She screamed. It made her feel better.
But then there was warmth around her shoulders…
Someone's chin was resting on her shoulders…
"I'm sorry I butted in, but I like you too much to watch you get hurt in the future by him…you're too good of a girl for that…" said a soft voice.
She could feel his breath on the edge of her shoulder. She blushed…
"Do you forgive me?" the voice asked innocently.
"Of course," Hitomi said with that comforting smile and she reached up to hold his hand.
Van spun her around and caught a glimpse of shimmering red in the night starlight.
"You kept my necklace on?" he asked with amazement.
"I feel close to you for some reason, even though we don't really know each other that well…I still want to be by your side…just to be there…" Hitomi muttered, feeling yet again, a little foolish on the inside.
They stood only inches away from each other. Van put on a half smile and snickered a little.
"What?" Hitomi asked with pure curiosity.
Van took a hand and brought it against her face, wiping away all the smeared mascara and green eye shadow.
"The 80's were a huge mistake, you do know that right?" he said with an internal laugh.
"Yes, I do," Hitomi said snuggling her face into the palm of his hand.
"Van?"
"Yea," Van said feeling a heat creep over his face as Hitomi peered at his cherry maroon eyes.
"Why do you want to take care of me so badly?"
"I told you when we first hung out that I'd make sure you felt at home…I promised you that, and I'm not going to let you down…" he said feeling the heat increasing tenfold.
"That's sweet…" Hitomi said as she gave him a hug that proclaimed she wanted to be taken care of, although she didn't want to verbally admit it.
Van simply embraced her, taking each moment in while stroking her hair and looking to the stars. He couldn't have asked for more.
~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~ ~ * ~
"I've seen on the records that you come here a lot Mr. Schezar and I'm afraid we've never met until now…" said Ken as he poured a drink in his own private office space in the back of the Chez La Fleur.
"I'm sorry we had to meet this way," he said handing the drink to Allen.
"It's alright," said an almost unconscious Allen who had a broken nose, bloody lip, black eye, and a swelling cranium-not to mention his hair was almost completely burned off.
"I'm now wondering if I know the person that did this…" said Ken as he leaned back in his leather computer chair.
"I'm not sure I get your point…" Allen said with a blonde's true intelligence.
"I mean, I might be able to help you get revenge on the person who set you up for this embarrassment…"
"I still don't follow ya'…."
"I mean I might know who did this to you!" Ken said slamming his fist down on the table.
"I don't get it…" Allen said blankly.
Ken slapped his forehead in pure frustration.
"Allen! It was that stupid math teacher of yours-VAN FANEL!"

~Jj~
Oh and the astriks (in order that they occurred): Saki-is a very strong, Japanese alchoholic drink. I meant it to be like the "piscus" that Van gave her in the series to "sober her up." LOL
Chez La Fleur and Chez La Lune: Go find a French translator on the net and translate that from French to English. It's a very funny translation when you think about it literally!
