IchigoGal:(Being my favorite person on this site) Thanks for your review, I hope we can start on our story together real soon! And I wont be discontinueing this one like my former fanfic. I won't be letting this one die.

KishxIchigo Forever:Sorry, I haven't decided that just yet. Although I am a huge fan of the pairing Kisshu-Ichigo, I don't have any intention of coupling them in my story. I had planned for my OC to fill that roll. As far as pairings go I'm sayin' a hint of Ryou-Ichigo. Depending on what my few reviewers think.


Distant Shadow; Chapter Two

Later; A closed sign was sat outside the nicely lit cafe. Those dim lights were just enough to break through the darkness that seemed to fall quickly after the sun had set. Inside, yawns swept through the area while five girl sat around the same table, elbows mounted on the table tops, chins resting in the palm of their hands. Boy, I'm beat.. Ichigo took a deep breath until it filled every crevice of her lungs, exhaling slowly in a solemn sigh.

Hearing the sound of the kitchen doors push open pulled her attention, Keiichirou approached the girl's presenting them with a tray of small cakes one prepared specially for each girl. Waiii! Their eye's grew hovering over the table looking at the delicious desserts. They almost look to good to eat, so well prepared. Mintoannounced. Pudding-Chan had already begin to eat her's in mouthful's without warning, not even sparing a crumb. Na no da! This is so yummy!

After several moments each of the girls had taken a bite of their dessert, it had been a reward for all their hard work around the cafe, nonetheless battling off those kirema anima. Ichigo almost felt as if tears were gonna force from her eyes. Appearantly she was enjoying her cake the most of the five females.

Akasaka you've really outdone yourself! This is really delicious. She added the best I've ever had. The brunette (with the talent of psyching out girl's) smiled towards the burgandy haired girl, nodding with his charm. I'm happy you think so, perhaps you should inform him that, I'm sure he would appreciate that comment more. Ichigo tilted her head to side, with a look of curiosity. That particular cake, made by Ryou himself it seems.

She paused at Keiichirou's last reply, she reach out lifting her plate with what held the remains of the cake she hadn't already eaten'. Steady footfalls led her into the back of the cafe, she paused standing at ease noticing a certain blonde, arms folded leaning against the pink counter. .Shirogane?

Hearing the soft toned voice speaking his last name, his eye's lifted glancing towards Ichigo. A grin teased her parched lips, she felt the corner of her mouth lift, as she began to snicker, that turning into immence laughter, She placed the plate on the counter top, letting her palms fall on her stumach, over that frilly heart shaped apron. It appeared that Ryou had flower on his face, and caked within his blonde locks, not to mention what lay on his clothes. Gomen Nasai! ..Gomen Nasai!

Her apologies were engulfed in her laughter. She instantly calmed herself, when He approached her, noticing that she hadn't finished the cake.

Did you like it?

Huh?

Did you like the cake, or not?

Oh! Yes, it was delicious! Ichigo swung her hands around, and nodded. Very good. I was surprised when Akasaka told me you made it. Not that I didn't think you couldn't bake or cook, when you obviously can. She sighed, letting her head fall, she stood staring at her feet of embarrassment. Also hiding the fact that a red flush had crept on her face. Ryou stopped mere inches from a collision, One of his hands reach out to carress her cheek, his cold palm made her wince. Slowly his face drew closer to hers, He pushed up her bangs and pressed his forehead softly against her own, his alurring blue-ish-green orbs staring possessivly into hers. Good. He turned away from her, with a smirk planted on his lips, he certainly was a tease to that poor girl. Steaming Ichigo bawled her fists, and cut loose, yelling. Why you! Peering over his sholder he waved his hand around. Did you think I had any intention of kissing you?


That's the end of chapter Two, it was short, I know. It was just a continuous of the first chapter. Tomorrow I'll start on chapter three, when the real fun begins! Please Review.
