Crimson Tears

Chapter 1: Living without you

Disclaimer: Tokyo Mew Mew Doesn't belong to me. I wish it did. Why doesn't it?!

"Come on Ichigo! Get up Already!!!" Mint stormed into the room with Lettuce, Pudding, Zakuro, and Ringo right behind her.

"Please Ichigo! You'll get sick if you don't out of bed soon!!!" Lettuce sounded even more frantic and worried than usual, but Ichigo tried not to let it bother her.

"Ichigo-chan isn't still upset about Masaya cheating on is she, Na No Da?" As usual Pudding was all hyped up, bouncing around the room and on Ichigo's bed, when everyone was upset. Or in Ringo's case, more interested in finding out if the apple on Ichigo's desk was real, and if Ichigo would mind if she ate it.

"Hey Neko-chan, can Ringo eat the apple? This one looks EXTRA good!" Ichigo winced when she heard Ringo call her by the same "pet name" Kishu used.

Ringo obviously had no idea that something important was going on around her. Then again, maby she just decided that staring at apples until someone gave them to her was more important than anything that could possibly happen.

"Hee hee" A small laugh escaped Ichigo's lips. "Thanks guys, I'm feeling much better now!"

Ha! Ringo always makes me laugh! She's just so clueless!Ichigo thought, forgetting for a moment all the pain and betrayal.

"Well since your feeling so much better now Ichigo, you and the others can get your little butts down to café Mew Mew!" Surprised, everyone turned around to see Marsha floating outside Ichigo's window.

"Hey, Ryou's right! We should be going to work! You get dressed, we'll meet you downstairs." Mint said grabbing the frilly pink work uniform off her desk and put it beside Ichigo, on her bed. Everyone turned their backs to Ichigo to leave, so no one saw her large crimson eyes filling with tears once again.

"Hey Ichigo, you ok?" zakuro asked, catching Ichigo off guard.

"Um, yeah.................. I guess I'm still upset about Masaya a little"

"Well you take it easy ok?"

"Yeah, sure, whatever" Ichigo tried to force a smile, knowing the wolf-girl would just see through it. Then again, she really didn't care.

As soon as Zakuro left Ichigo started to undress. All of a sudden she realized Ringo was still in the room.

"RINGO!!!!!" Ringo turned in surprise, then noticed Ichigo was wearing a bra and underwear, and stared at her for a moment, with mild interest before running out of the room.

ugh! Sometimes Ringo reminds me too much of kishu! Hmm.........come to think of it I haven't seem kishu since I broke up Masaya, and I really miss him................................................

Thanks to everyone who reviewed the prologue! I'd like to put all your names up here but my computer broke, so I'm using my grandmas. And she won't let me go on the Internet because it ties up her phones. Oh well thanks anyway! I hope you like the first chapter! PLZ review!!!
