As she was thinking it over, Ryo moved in closer and Ichigo could smell his sweet Vanilla breath……..
Ichigo! Are you in here, I wanted to talk to you about something said Kiecheiro as he opened the door.
Ichigo and Ryo quickly sprang apart from each other, both beet red.
Kecheiro sensed that something just happened between the two so he told Ichigo to meet him downstairs before she left.
When Kecheiro left Ichigo and Ryo couldn't look at each other eye to eye, so she just left.
Ichigo was relieved that Kiecheiro stepped in, but she was also disappointed that she couldn't get to kiss Ryo.
"Damn him, every time I come closer to reveal my feelings to my Strawberry, someone or something is constantly in the way!" thought Ryo as he slammed his fist into the wall.
ICHIGO's POV
Ichigo went downstairs to see Kecheiro waiting for her there.
"I want you to gather the other girls after Cafe Mew Mew is closed because I have something important to say to you girls" said Kecheiro.
"Hmmmmn, I wonder what Kecheiro-san wants to say us" thought Ichigo as she was walking home."
All of a sudden Ichigo's cell phone started to ring playing the E-Jump theme song.
"Hey you!" said Masaya to a very thrilled Ichigo.
"I was wondering if you wanted to go to the zoo tomorrow afternoon," said Masaya.
"It's a date!" shrieked Ichigo.
For some reason as Ichigo was walking home she couldn't stop thinking about Ryo.
"Ahhhhhh, what's wrong with me, am I having feelings for Ryo?" screeched Ichigo.
Next Morning…
"Ohhh, What time is it?" muttered Ichigo as she woke up from her dreamless sleep.
Oh my gosh, I'm almost late for work!
Ichigo leaped out of her bed and dressed up, she ran as fast as her feet could carry her to the Café Mew Mew.
She arrived just in time to see that all the other girls hadn't turned up yet.
Ichigo went to change into her uniform in the storage room.
Since the storage door didn't have a lock, someone unexpected dropped in.
Eeeek! shrieked Ichigo as soon as she saw that it was Ryo.
"GET OUT YOU BIG-HEADED, EGOTISTICAL, ARROGANT JERK!" screamed Ichigo.
Ryo's cheeks turned crimson as he noticed that Ichigo was only in her undies.
He swiftly walked out thinking over what he just witnessed.
Ichigo walked out a minute later fully dressed in her uniform.
She looked really irritated and scarlet as she asked Ryo "Oh God, what were you thinking when you walked into the storage room?"
"That's the point I wasn't thinking at all, I walked in there because Kechiero needed flour and I didn't even know you were in there!" defended Ryo.
"WELL YOU BETTER FORGET WHAT YOU SAW, PERVERT!" yelled Ichigo.
"Why should I?" asked Ryo with an amused expression on his face.
"Argghhhh, now you're gonna get it!" screamed Ichigo as she jumped on Ryo making him fall backwards.
Ryo yelped as Ichigo jumped on him.
The other girls took this time to arrive at the scene, and Pudding yelling out so the whole world could hear her "Oooh, Ichigo's on top of Ryo!
"What were you two doing while we weren't here?" asked Mint mischievously.
"It's not what it looks like," yelled both of them at the same time as they sprang apart from each other once more.
Kecheiro walked in at that moment and told the girls he wanted to talk to them right away.
"Since you girls were working so hard these past weeks, me and Ryo decide you girls needed some time off, so we will all be going to the islands for a week to have fun in the sun!" said Kecheiro.
At first the girls stood there gaping at him, but then Ichigo shouted, "Woo hoo!" and all the other girls started jumping up and down, except for Zakuro who was standing their with a hint a smile on her face.
"Since we all know that Ichigo will be late tomorrow I want Ryo to pick her up in the morning, to make sure she gets there on time or we'll have to leave her."
"Hey!" yelled both Ichigo and Ryo at the same time.
"Why do I have to pick her up?" asked an annoyed Ryo.
"I'm not too happy about it either," snapped Ichigo.
"Well since the other girls will be busy packing, its you who will have the spare time to pick her up!" said Kecheiro.
The girls went to work dreamily, thinking up fantasies about what each of them would do in the Islands.
