Nyaa-Neko: I can see what you mean, I suppose that would be pretty annoying…I'm sorry! From now on, I'll stick to English all the way through on this story. Oh, and I meant five dollars (five hundred yen) off every hour. Thanks for the review!

Destiny-Angelle: Thanks for reviewing! I don't hate Lettuce, but I can't say she's my fave person.

RedMewIchigo: Thank you very much! Yeah, I feel so bad for him…(sob)

I-love-vash: Totally. If only I had that problem…lol!

Stepping Stones: Lol! Don't apologize! It sounds like something I would do sometimes! I'll do my best!

Disclaimer: One, I'm going to now be using Ryou and Kish as my people that do the disclaimer and fill in the author's note stuff up here and when a chapter's done and blah blah blah. I don't own them…

Kish: That's not true! You bought us off of Ebay! …What is Ebay anyway?

Ryou: It's a site where you can auction off things and stuff. Anyway, who did put us up on there?

Ichigo: (on Ryou's computer) Hee hee! Now to see how it feels to be worked to death, Ryou! Mua ha ha! And Kish is out of my hair, too! ...Now time for popcorn!

Prettyinpinkgal: Guys, you have to do the disclaimer thing!

K and R: We don't have to do what you say!

Prettyinpinkgal: (shows a remote, and Ryou and Kish realize they're wearing shock collars) Yes, you do. (shocks them)

R and K: OWW! (reads off script while screaming) PRETTYINPINKGAL DOES NOT OWN TOKYO MEW MEW, AND IN REALITY NO BISHOUNEN WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS FANFICTION!

Prettyinpinkgal: Please enjoy:)

NEW FEELINGS

CHAPTER TWO: CHATTING

Ichigo ran out of the cafe, and ran to a bench in the park. She sat there and fumed, but also felt very upset. 'Why does he keep treating me like this? There are times when he can be just as sweet as Masaya, if not sweeter. Then he has to act like Hitler or something. I wish I could at least decide to hate him, or decide that he's my friend.' The girl sighed and looked at the cherry blossoms that were painting the scenery pink. She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to let the beauty of the area calm her.

"Ichigo!" A voice rang clear through the trees. Ichigo opened her eyes and looked around. Lettuce ran over to her friend, still in her cafe uniform. She adjusted her glasses and asked, "May I sit down?"

She nodded, and Lettuce sat next to her and didn't say anything for a moment. She then broke the silence by saying, "Ichigo, please don't quit. We need you, and where else are they going to hire an eighth grader (A/N Yes, Ichigo's in eighth grade now. And I'm not sure if they have a child labor law in Japan, but oh well!)?"

Ichigo sighed. "I know, Lettuce, but it's just...Ryou just won't shut up when he should, and always, always, ALWAYS makes me feel stupid and won't give me a raise when I work the hardest and he just keeps on acting like this huge jerk!" she screamed. A few birds flew away from the cherry blossom trees, startled.

Lettuce looked at the pink trees, not able to look at her friend. "Well, Ryou's not THAT bad...he can be pretty sweet at times." A blush spread across the girl's face, making her both red and green.

This didn't go by without Ichigo noticing. "Lettuce," she said slyly. "Do you like Ryou?"

Her blush deepened. "Um...well...you see...Oh Ichigo, please oh please don't tell anyone! Pinky swear?" Lettuce thrust her pinky out.

Ichigo beamed and pinky promised. "You know, I bet he loves you back."

Lettuce stared at her, but shook her head. "He doesn't," she sadly whispered. "I know he doesn't."

"You mean you've asked him already?"

"N-No! I mean, I think he likes you, Ichigo."

Ichigo stopped. Ryou? Like her? Him loving her? She started laughing. "Lettuce, what on earth gave you that idea? He hates my guts!"

"Ichigo, maybe the reason Ryou acts like that is because he does love you, but he doesn't know how to show it," she replied.

Ichigo thought for a moment. "I..."

Suddenly, Ichigo's cell phone started ringing. She looked at it and gasped. "Oh my gosh! I didn't realize what time it was! I have to meet Masaya! Thanks for calming me down, Lettuce! I guess I'll come back to work tomorrow. And don't forget to tell Ryou how you feel, because I'm sure he doesn't like me! Bye!" With that, Ichigo ran off waving to her.

Lettuce waved back, but sighed. 'Ichigo, you have no idea how wrong you are. I'd give anything to be in your shoes.'

Ryou and Kish: HELP US!

Prettyinpinkgal: (Walks in) What are you two doing?

R and K: N-Nothing!

Prettyinpinkgal: Um, okay then. Now I know you guys were up to something! Anyway, everyone, please review! And I'm sorry that this chapter's pretty short!
