Chapter 4: Heavenly feelings! Ria-chan's crush,nya!
Ria breathed into her hands. Winter was starting to settle in. "Augh! I despise this weather so much!" She pouted. Honey couldn't help but giggle. "Don't worry. It only lasts a few months!" Riagave a playful glare at Honey. "Easy for you to say!" Honey stuck out her tounge. "Where are the others? We were supossed to meet them here!" Ria grumbled. "Y'know...she's kinda' late alot..." Honey blinked. "AYIEEEEE!!!! WATCH OUUUUTT!!" Cherry ran and crashed into Ria and Honey. "What the?!" Ria laughed. Cherry caught her breath. "Sorry! Cassie and Sammy were just chasing me and....I just couldn't stop!" Honey got up. "Where are they then?" "They should be here...just a..." Cherry's sentence was cut short. Two brown haired girls jumped on top of Cherry and Ria. "Hey! Hey!" Cherry and Ria both laughed. A few moments after they were walking along the sidewalk. "Jomei said it was..." Cherry looked at the directions. "Too confusing,nya!" Honey took them. "Right here Cherry-chan!" Honey pointed to a cafe. "Oooo!" The breathed. "Looks like one of those new "goth" coffee places." Ria gave a laugh. "Look Ria!" Honey gave a goofy grin. "Huh?!" Ria turned. She saw him. "Ma..sa..to.." Her face turned pink. "Say Hi!" Honey pushed her. "I..I can't!" Ria shook her head. "Who is this Masato?" Cherry tilted her head. "A guy Ria likes. He's quite cool actually." Honey whispered to them. Ria have a light gasp and turned to the group. "I think he caught me looking at him." "Wow...I've never seen you act this way..." Cherry gave her a light nudge. "Wha--? Acting WHAT way?" Ria huffed. "Like a love-sick person!" Cherry winked. "L-love sick?!" Ria waved her hands as if it would make those words go away. "I am...in NO way...love sick!" "Oh,c'mon Ria!" Honey grinned. "Your as pink as Cherry is in her Mew Mew form!" Ria held her face in disgust. This was really humiliating. Why..why was it happening?! 'Oooo! I SO want to hide under a rock right now!' Ria's thoughts cried. "Oh! We should hurry! Jomei will be pissed if we are any more late!" Sammy opened the door to the cafe. "Right." The others nodded and walked inside. The inside looked like most cafes. Bits of black,yellow,pink and light blue paint splattered the walls. "Interesting..." Cassie peered at the tables. "Oh. Dear. God. I know why he wants us to come here!" Cassie flailed her arms. "He wants us to work here!" Everyone gave dramamtic gasps. "No!" "Nu-uh!" "You think?!" Cassie stuck out her tounge. "Sorry for not realizing it earlier." "That's alright Cas." Jomei appeared. He had 5 bags in his arms. "These bags contain your new uniform." Everyone grinned. "What's the new uniform?" Honey picked at a yellow bag. "A shirt and a apron. Nothing big." "Ah." Everyone took a bag. "Oooo!!" Cherry's uniform was pink,Ria's was black,Honey's was yellow,Sammy's was white and Cassie's was light blue. "You start tomorrow. Have a nice day!" Jomei gave a salute and walked away. "Well...at least we get money...right?" Sammy stuffed the clothing back in the bag. "Sure..." Everyone replied uneasily. 'Well..'least they forgot about Masato.' Ria thought happily. What Ria didn't know was that Honey had a plan. A match-making plan.
The next day the gang was rushing to work. "Oh my fucking..." "I'm SO not friggin' used to this!" They complained the whole way. They rushed into the cafe and quickly changed. Their first customers walked in. "Hello! Welcome to our cafe! How may we be of service,nyan?" The customers gave a laugh and sat down somewhere. Honey grinned and pushed Cherry out of the way. "Oh..darnit." Honey realized that they weren't who she was looking for. "Honey!" Cherry hissed. "Ayi! Sorry! Sorry!" Honey bowed and Cherry went back to the customers. Honey bit her bottom lip. 'C'mon Misato..." "2 orders of honey-dipped bread!" "A order of chocolate cake!" "A steaming cup of coffee!" The girls slumped against the wall. "Busy..." They nodded. A few hours later someone walked in. "...!!" Honey pushed Ria away. "Welcome!" She grinned and seated the person. "Alright Masato-sama. I'm getting to the point." The boy just stared at her. Honey then suddenly whipped out a cake with a picture that looked like Ria. (How she got the cake..no one knew.) "How's 'bout some .... "would-you-like-to-go-out-with-my-best-friend" cake?" Misato chuckled. "Sure! Maybe with some "would-she-like-to" to drink?" Honey grinned and shot a glance at Ria. Ria's face was bright red. She gave a nod. Honey nodded also. "Great!" Misato looked at Ria. "How about 11 o'clock Saturday? We'll meet here." Ria smiled and nodded again. "Okay! Now...here. On the house." Honey shoved the cake in his face. "Looks good!" Honey gave a satisified smile. Cherry,Sammy, and Cassie giggled. A half hour later Masato left. That's when the girls exploded. "OH MY GOD!" "Ria's going out!" "...sitting in a tree..." "Oh..c'mon guys!" Ria laughed. "Typical. The new formula is a failure." Metellus threw a vile at a wall. "We need something powerful. ...Like those Mew Aqua's Kish is always talking about..." She flipped through a book. "I wonder where I can find those Aquas.." Tart then floated in the room. Tart was the smallest out of all the aliens there and was the most child like. "What are you doing here Tart?" Metellus didn't look up from her book. "Heh. I got some juicy information for you!" "Oh,really Tart?" He nodded. "Getting the information out of me is going to cost you though!" Tart twirled in the air. "Fine. What do you want?" Tart grinned. "I don't knoooooow...." "TELL ME!!" Tart fell from Metellus's scream. "Fine! Fine!" Tart got up. "One of the Mew Mew's is going out with a guy tomorrow." "So?" "She'll be alone! Duh!" Metellus thought about that for a moment. She could easily defeat one Mew Mew. "Once she's eliminated...we'll have a bigger chance of getting our world back!" Metellus nodded. "Of course." She turned back to her work station. She wasn't going to use a Kirema Anima this time. She'll do this job personally.
Ria looked at her watch. She was exactly five minutes early. "Why did I leave so early? Now the next five minutes will feel like forever!" She sighed. She was right. The five minutes did feel like forever. "Ria..?" Masato tapped her shoulder. "EEEK!" Ria jumped. "Woah!" Masato grinned. "Could..you close your eyes? Just for a moment?" Ria gave him a strange look but did so anyway. Ria felt Misato's hands brush up against her neck. She cringed from the coldness and wanted to know what was going on. 'Oh dear God..he's going to kill me! He's going to grab my neck and kill...' "All set!" Masato's cheery voice snapped Ria from her thoughts. Ria opened her eyes. Nothing seemed wrong. Nothing looked wrong. "It looks pretty on you." He smiled. "Hmm?" Ria looked down. "Oh!" A necklace caught her eyes. The chain was silver and a ring hung off it. The ring was different colors. "How pretty!" Ria smiled. "You like it?" She nodded. "So..how 'bout we start our date?" Masato took Ria's hand. Ria's face turned a bright crimson. "I suggest a nice walk in the park to get to know each other better. And..after..a nice lunch." "Sure!" Ria giggled. "Great." Masato gave a smile. Metellus peeked from the bushes. "There she is.. ...The little brat." She smiled and quietly followed the two. "This is really nice..." Ria whispered. "Yeah. I'm glad I took you." "Really?" "Mmhmm." Masato stopped and looked at Ria. "...?" Ria could feel her face burn. He was getting closer. Ria then felt something on her lips. "..!!" Ria felt her bull tail pop out. Good thing no one noticed. Ria couldn't believe it. She just had her first kiss and it felt wonderful. She wanted it to last. "Gotcha!" Ria heard a familar voice. "Masato!!" Ria screamed. "Ung!" Masato grunted as Metellus grabbed him by the neck. "Let go of him!" Ria growled. "Make me." Metellus grinned. 'Damn! I can't fight her like this! I can't transform infront of Masato!' Ria clenched her fists. "You know you want too. Go ahead Mew brat." Ria stared at Masato. What would he think? "Mew...brat...? ...Ria?" Masato coughed. "Misato..please don't think I'm weird..." Ria sighed and glared at Metellus. "Mew Mew Ria! Metamorphosis!" She transformed. "Let go of him!" Metellus gave another grin. "Of course." She let him go. "Eeee!" Ria caught him. "Holy crap Ria! Is that really you?!" Ria's eyes saddened. "...Yeah." Masato touched one of her horns. "This is really awesome. You look even more adorable." Ria giggled. "Well..better do something with this girl..." Ria got up and gave a hard glare at Metellus. "How dare you break one of my dates!" Metellus evilly smiled. "You'll pay!" "Oh? Will I,now? Theres only one of you!" Ria blinked. She was right. "Grrr..." Ria growled. "Wait...I'm not really alone..." Ria held her chest. Something warm and loving was bubbling inside. Masato nodded. "Shoutokeki Nibai Sword!" "Ha! Ha!" Metellus laughed and took a rod out. The next thing Masato saw were the two girls fighting. "HA!" Metellus slammed the end of her weapon into Ria's stomach. "Agh!" Ria coughed up abit of blood. "Ria!" Masato tried to move. "Stay." Ria got up. "This..is going to end now!" She held her swords in a cross formation. "Shoutokeki Ichigo Cross Blade!!" A wave of greay energy rushed past Metellus. "AGGGGHHHH!!!" She howled. "This isn't over!" She said before disappearing. "...!!" Ria fell to her knees. "That...took a lot of energy." "Ria!" Masato grabbed her shoulders. "I'll be fine..." Ria smiled at him. She loved him alot and it showed. She gave him another smile and was the one to kiss him.
