The Rabbit Mew
Chapter 7
"Peppermint, you're not gonna betray us like Kish is pretty close to doing, are you? She's a human, and a Mew Mew for that matter!" Pai said. "Yeah, and she's working for us!" Peppermint replied. "That doesn't matter. A human is a human, no matter what side they're on. Let's hope that she's kept in the dark until Deep Blue gets what he wants." Pai had calmed down a bit. Peppermint glared at him. "I'm gonna see if she has anything new to report." "She won't." "So?" Peppermint teleported away.
Anna headed outside at recess. Peppermint teleported in front of her. "Anything new to report?" "Nothing major." Anna said, shaking her head. "But what are you doing here? What if Ichigo sees you here, Peppermint?" She asked. "In the stairwell? And how'd you know my name?" He replied. She giggled. "Remember when Pai yelled at you to go away? He used your name then." She explained. "Oh. I don't even know your name though." She giggled again. "Anna." "Oh." Peppermint said again. 'She's got a nice laugh. I can't let her know I like her.' Peppermint thought. "Well, bye." He said, and teleported away. She shrugged, and continued outside.
"Did she?" Pai asked with a smug expression on his face. Peppermint sighed. "No. And don't say I told you so."
After school, Anna ran to the café. "Hi! Sorry I'm late!" She called. "Just get to work!" Ryou called back. She did so. Crash! "Oh my gosh! I'm sorry!" Retasu yelled as she dropped a tray. Anna filed that away with the rest of the stuff she was going to report.
When the café closed, Anna once again took the long way home. "Hi, Peppermint." She said when she turned the corner. "Retasu tends to drop things, Minto drinks tea everyday, Purin is very hyperactive, Zakuro glares at everyone, and Ichigo is just an overall klutz." She reported, without being asked. 'Wow. I didn't even have to ask her that time. She sounds like she's the most perfect among them, but Deep Blue doesn't seem to want to know anything about her. She doesn't know that though.' Peppermint thought. Not even realizing what he was doing, he leaned in and kissed her. ((Aaagh! I can't believe I'm writing this!)) After a few moments, he pulled away. "You sound like the most perfect among the Mew Mews." He told her. She stood there in shock. "OK, I didn't realize that you liked me too." Anna said to him. "Well, I do. I better go, I'm gonna be in really big trouble when Pai finds out I did that." Peppermint said and teleported away.
