Chpt.7
"Why is it that everytime I mention Kish stealing my first kiss around you, you always seem a little jealous?" I asked Ryou later that night when I told Lettuce and Mint about what happened,
"You're just imagining things," Ryou said looking away from me and taking a sip of whiskey
"Am I? Well just so you know, I'm good at telling when someone is lying to me," I said walking in front of him so I could see his face then he did something that I would never expect, he took my face in his hands and kissed me on the lips, and I didn't want it to stop.
A few minutes later we broke because we knew that we had to work so I walked to the entrance to seat some people while Ryou went back to making drinks for people.
"So what was all of that about?" Mint whispered to me while I cleaned a table
"Oh you mean Ryou kissing me nothing, we just kissed, why did you think that there's something going on between us?" I asked knowing that most of what I just said was a lie
"Well, I've always suspected something, ever since you were crying like a baby when Ryou and Keiichiro were arrested," Mint said crossing her arms
"Well, people's suspicions are usually are wrong," I said going back to cleaning the table
"Yeah well I suggest you tell that to your ears and tail," Mint said walking away making me touch my head and I felt my cat ears, so I made them go away then I walked up to some people that just entered to seat them.
"Well guys, time to close up," Ryou said as the last customers left so I locked the doors then went to clean tables with the other four mews
"I still can't believe that I'm one of you guys," Zakuro said cleaning a table and trying to not get her purple bikini top, or purple shorts with a red beaded wolf design dirty from the food that was on the table,
"You get used to it, besides it's pretty cool when you're able to transform," I said as I took a few plates away into the kitchen.
"Hey Ichigo," a voice said scaring me so I turned around and saw Ryou,
"Jeeze, you almost gave me a heart attack, I didn't even see you come in here," I said making my ears and tail disappear
"Sorry, I just wanted to know what Mint said that made you so nervous," Ryou said as I placed the dirty dishes into the sink
"She was talking about what we did on our break," I said blushing a little and I could feel my cat ears and tail pop up
"And that made you nervous?" Ryou asked me walking closer to me
"Uh...yeah...I really don't know why," I said then he leaned his face closer to mines and then I felt his warm lips touch mine so I wrapped my arms around his neck and he deepened it by turning it to a French kiss.
It took me a while to remember that I needed air so I broke from his grasp to breathe, "I have to go, I have more finals tomorrow and a whole press to dodge," I said as Ryou chuckled a little
"I understand, I'll see you tomorrow," Ryou said as I grabbed my backpack and left waving over my shoulder.
"So, how's your relationship with Ryou," Lettuce asked me the next morning at class
"Wh-what do you mean?" I asked her feeling a little nervous
"Well, we saw you and Ryou in the kitchen last night...it's not hard to see that you two are perfect for each other," Lettuce said then some messenger boy gave me a bouquet of pink flowers, so I looked at the card
Dear Ichigo,
These reminded me of you hope you like it, and call me when you would like to go out some time, I sure would love it.
Aishiteru,
Masaya
"Is it from Ryou?" Lettuce asked me when I finished reading the card
"No, it's from Masaya, he wants to go out with me on a date," I said then I started sneezing like mad
"Uh...Ichigo-san I think you're allergic to these kinds of flowers," Lettuce said as she took the flowers away from me
"You think?" I said as I continued to sneeze so Lettuce stood up to throw away the flowers "Arigato," I thanked Lettuce when she came back and when I stopped sneezing then the professor came in and passed out our final, so when I got mines I started working on it.
Half an hour later I finished so I gave my professor my paper and left since we were free to go once we finished our tests, and I decided to go to the bar and grill since it was lunch time and history is my last class.
"Hey Ryou," I said making Ryou jump while he was cooking his lunch
"When'd you get here?" Ryou asked me as I put my backpack near the door
"A couple of seconds ago, am I allowed to make my own lunch now?" I asked him tying my hair up
"Actually I'm making enough food for two people so I could share my lunch with you," Ryou offered
"How am I sure that it's not poisoned?" I asked him as he took a bite from a rice ball
"Did I roll over and die?" Ryou asked me making me laugh and smile
"Thanks for the food, you're really a sweet person," I said then I gave him a peck on the lips
"Your welcome, food's ready," Ryou said grabbing two plates and placing some rice balls with fried chicken on each of the plates then he carried them out while I grabbed us a couple of beers from the fridge then I walked out of the kitchen and sat next to him at the counter.
"This is really good, I never knew that you were such a great cook," I said taking a bite from some fried chicken and drinking it down with a small sip of beer
"Thanks, Keiichiro taught me how to cook when I was little," Ryou said then we started talking and eating.
"Well I better get ready for work," I said taking my plate and walking to the kitchen to wash it
"Yeah, and I have to start moving a couple of supplies in," Ryou said following me to the kitchen so I grabbed my backpack and walked into the changing room. A couple of minutes later I walked out and Ryou walked in front of me "You know we'll probably be the only ones here for a while," Ryou said with a smile then I gave him a kiss on the lips and he deepened it by turning it into a French, and I could feel his fingers massaging my back around my bra strap and it became unhooked so I dug my hands under his shirt and bought them to his back almost taking his shirt off but then he stopped me by breaking the kiss
"I don't want to do anything to you that'll ruin your life in college, we could wait until the night you graduate," Ryou said combing his fingers through my hair
"Okay, thanks for caring about me making it big," I said giving him a tight hug then when I heard someone entered we let go of each other and Ryou walked out of the kitchen so I could fix my bra strap and I heard Keiichiro's voice
"Where's Ichigo? The others need her at the TV station, Kish is attacking," Keiichiro said so I walked out of the kitchen
"I'll be there, see you guys after we win," I said running out of the bar and transforming at the same time.
"Ribbon Strawberry Check!" I yelled destroying two kirema animas at the same time
"Well it's about time you came, what took so long?" Mint asked me with a smirk on her face
"Hey I came didn't I...Lettuce look out!" I yelled as a kirema anima tried to swipe Lettuce away but then some sort of bright light appeared blinding everyone then when the light faded away I saw Lettuce only her glasses disappeared, her blue eyes were replaced by green ones, she wore some sort of green bathing suit, and she had green knee high boots
"Lettuce Tanet, Ribbon Lettuce Flash!" Lettuce yelled destroying all of the kirema animas that surrounded the TV station
"When will you pathetic humans learn that there's no way you can ever win," Kish said laughing as he blinked away
"What does that idiot mean? We've been defeating his kirema animas everytime he sent them," Mint said as we de-transformed
"Who knows, let's just go back to the bar before Ryou decides to stop paying us," I said as we walked back to the bar.
"You guys are late, now hurry up and change," Ryou said when we came back and we saw that the bar was full of people and that he and Keiichiro were scurrying around trying to do our jobs
"Okay, sorry," I said as all of the mews other than me went to change, so since I was already dressed out I started seating people.
"You know you and Keiichiro could take a break, since we're here," I said grabbing a Budweiser for a guy who ordered it
"You sure you can handle everything?" Ryou asked me as he poured some wine in a glass
"Well I have been working here for almost two years, so yeah I can handle it," I said as Ryou took a seat on a chair with Keiichiro sitting next to him while the rest of us went to work.
"I still can't believe it took this long for me to finally transform," Lettuce said while I cleaned a table
"I know, you've been infused with the finless porpoise genes and yet I was the first one to transform," I said carrying away dirty plates with Lettuce following me
"Maybe you can only transform when you're about to get killed by a kirema anima," Lettuce said as I placed the dishes in the sink
"Maybe," I said remembering that when I first transformed I was afraid that my fingernails wouldn't be enough to defeat the kirema animas, and Lettuce transformed when a kirema anima almost squished her
"That has to be it, there's no other explanation for it," Lettuce said walking out of the kitchen next to me then she went to a table to take people's order
"Sorry guys, but your breaks are up," I said trying to wake up Ryou from his slumber on the counter
"Can't a guy get some sleep around here?" Ryou said his face still leaning on the counter
"Come on, you don't even go to college and you're complaining about not getting enough sleep?" I said slapping the back of his head which made him get up
"Ouch, and I might as well be in college since I'm always doing research to find out when the aliens' leader is going to wake up," Ryou said rubbing the back of his head and going behind the counter to fill peoples orders
"When did you graduate anyway?" I asked him grabbing some whiskey for a customer
"When I was twelve, I am a genius you know," Ryou said handing a person a glass full of the strongest wine
"See? And I'm the one going to bed really late and waking up early and the cat genes aren't much of a help," I said going back to work.

A/N: I know that I'm switching times around, but this is MY fanfic and I can do whatever I want in it, and if you don't like it go jump off a cliff. Anywho here's the glossary:
Aishiteru: I love you
And of course here's the sneak peek:
"Why are you always going around that boss of yours?" Masaya asked me grabbing my arm
"Let go of me and that's none of your business, besides why do you care? I thought you said that I wasn't your type," I said taking my arm back and he grew angrier with every word I said
"I just didn't want to rush into things, besides I thought that you said you hated that boss of yours," Masaya yelled at me
"People can change their minds, and please leave me alone, I have to get to work," I said trying to walk towards the stairs but then he grabbed my arm again
"Not until you get rid of that guy," Masaya said
"He's my boyfriend, why would I break up with him just because you tell me to?" I asked him then his eyes turned from brown to blood red
"Because, I am Deep Blue and whatever I say shall go," he said in a demonic voice then he threw a blast at me which made me fall down the stairs on my back and I blacked out.
That is one of my best sneak peeks ever, and it just came into my head all of a sudden, oh and in case you're all wondering, Masaya wants Ichigo back to show her off, like a trophy, I just thought that it would be better to make it like that. Anywho review me now. Adios!
