Syaoran sighed. Another day at the ice cream parlor. Oh how fun. He rolled his eyes and stuck his tongue out at the ice cream sitting in front of him. The world was so cruel.

"Cruel I tell you!!" He raised a tanned fist into the air and placed the back of it over his head dramatically. His chestnut hair rough and messy.

He glanced over at the empty register next to him. No customers. Sheesh. He let a sigh escape his light lips and rumbled his fingers about the table. 'Where in the hell is Eriol?' He rolled his eyes. 'Stupid little..'

He placed his hands out and glared at nothing. 'Calm down Syaoran. Just calm down. You'll ruin your beautiful smile. Yes, think beautiful smile. Or smirk.' He smirked flirtatiously only to find no one else was in the room. He choked a bit, appalled at his own strangeness.

Then he suddenly found a man's face in his. A very fat man. Who smiled back just as flirtatiously? His fat red cheeks puffed out making his eyes seem almost invisible. "Halloo there." The man said sweetly.

Syaoran stumbled back. "Holy shit!!" She fell backwards onto the counter, his amber eyes blinking with confusion. "Someone fell down the hideous tree and hit every branch on the way."

The man gaped at him. Then tears seemed to glow in his, well were those eyes? Syaoran wasn't sure. "It's not my fault my mother was ugly!!" The man sobbed a bit more and decided to run out of the store like a hysterical maniac.

Syaoran shrugged. Normal day. Normal fat man. He heard a growl and turned around to face his manager. His eyes cold as ice. "Scaring away customers again, playboy?"

Syaoran scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "Eheh., I didn't," Gulp. "Mean too. He was scaring me." Syaoran pointed to the fat man sobbing by the glass windows, like a little child. "I'm going to have nightmares tonight!!"

His manager glared harder. "Does it look like a give a flying shit? You make the customers happy no matter what, got it?" He growled more darkening his eyes. Syaoran laughed nervously. "Yeah sure."

His manager turned and went into the backroom.

"Bastard." Syaoran spat.

Minushinn was having trouble with his shoes. AGAIN. Sakura had noticed this had happened at least twice a month. 'Annoying little prick.' She smiled anyway, feeling guilty for thinking such things.

Ayra tried to help but found herself scraping her knee, instead. Sakura sighed. This was unbearable. How long had she been babysitting the Ender Children? Two years now. Yes that seemed right.

Tomoyo laughed all the same, she and Eriol had stopped by now. Barely glancing at each other. 'Fakers.' Sakura glared.

"So which ice cream parlor are we off to, hmm?" She grinned a bit. How she loved children. No matter how they annoyed the hell out of her. Minushinn stared at the ground. "I dunno?" He said quickly.

"I'm only a little kid, I'm not da man who suppose to make big decisions!!!" He growled at Eriol. "You da man!!"

Eriol smiled at him patting him on the head, looking quite scared. "Yes, yes well, we should probably go to the ice cream palace. I need to start work there anyway."

Minushinn's eyes got wide. "You work at a ice cream palace?" He jabbed a small finger at him. "Weally?"

Eriol sweat dropped, he wasn't very good with children. "Err, yes. I do. I mean yes I work at an ice cream parlor."

Tomoyo giggles in the back round, smirking. Minushinn nodded, not quite understanding parlor. "Yes, Minu. Eriol works at the ice cream palace. He's an ice cream night. Very low in command but he still works there." Tomoyo exclaimed sarcastically.

Eriol shot her a glare. "For your information, I'm pretty high class." He lowered his eyebrows. "The only reason I got fired from the last place was because of Syaoran. Stupid little.." He stopped.

"Almost about to trash your best friend?" Tomoyo raised an eyebrow.

Sakura sighed. "What is with you two? You're together one second and the next you hate each other. Explanation please. It's been years."

Eriol and Tomoyo glanced at each other and back at her. Tomoyo huffed and Eriol turned his back to her. "We are so not together!!" The shouted at the same time.

"Then what-" Sakura was cut off. "I just enjoy teasing her, she seems to be more fond of me then she thinks." Eriol smirked.

Tomoyo snorted. "Yeah, when hell freezes over." She let out a short laugh. "Don't deny it!" Eriol shouted back. She turned and glared at him.

"SHUT UP YOU TWO!!" Sakura yelled. The children had stayed quiet in the corner, enjoying the fight but wanting ice cream.

"Let's go to the bloody palace." She managed to breath out, exasperated.

Tomoyo hung her head a bit. "Sorry." She hushed. Eriol nodded. "It was her fault." He looked down at Tomoyo, who was a lot smaller, then him. "No it was so your fault-"

Sakura shoved a hand out. "If you two don't shut up right now, I swear I will hurt you." They shut up.

"Off to the ice cream parlor!!" She shouted grabbing Minushinn and Ayra's hand. "If I'm not completely broke and Tomoyo lends me some money."

The two children looked at each other and shrugged. "Who knows?" They said simultaneously.
