Disclaimer:I DO NOT OWN IT! (Although I wish I did)
"Wakey! Wakey! Eggs and Bakey!" Alaina yells the next morning in Audrey's ear.
"It's Brittney PMS'N! Hit the deck!" Audrey rolls off of the bed while Alaina laughs at her behavior.
"You're lucky Brittney's not here, Miss Akito-lover!"
"Back off, you were probably dreaming of Momiji all night." Alaina laughs again. "Heh. And you think I'm joking." Audrey says.
"Well fine, I make you breakfast and this is the thanks I get!"
"You didn't try making pancakes again did you?" Audrey says getting dressed.
"I try and feed you out of the goodness of my heart, and all you have to show for it is insults!" Alaina whines.
"Fine then, I won't eat."
"Oh, no! I made you breakfast and you're eating it!"
"I think someone's just a tad bit grumpy." Audrey whispers
"Are you kidding not only have I tried that to wake you up but I called your cell phone like fifteen times!"
"I would have heard it, Alaina."
"Well apparently you didn't. So when you find your cell phone, you'll have fifteen missed calls."
"You weren't kidding when you said fifteen were you?"
"Nope, I'm very persistent." Alaina answers.
"Well help me find it… Oh crap!"
"What?"
"I left my cell phone at the restaurant." Audrey spazzed.
"Whoa bummer, I wonder who stole it…"
"Alaina!" Audrey yells.
"What'd I do?" Alaina asks.
"It's what you didn't do!"
"You people need to get your own material." Alaina says as Audrey uses Brittney's cell phone that she left there to call her phone.
"Hello?" Someone answers.
"Who is this?" Audrey asks.
"Well who is this?" The person demands.
"The owner of the phone you're holding!" Audrey yells into the phone.
"Oh you're that Audrey chick, right?"
"Call me that again!" Audrey says dangerously into the phone. She could hear the guy sweat-dropping. Oh the power some women have… "Now tell me what your name is Mr. Hot-stuff!"
"Hey I'll have you know, my name is Hatsuharu, not Hot stuff."
"Oh hey Hatsuharu!" Audrey says changing her tone from earlier. "Thanks again for helping me with Alaina."
"It was no problem really. Now when can I drop this off to you? Would two be a good time?"
"No, sorry. I've got to work."
"Where do you work? It's not right that you or any other kid like you has to work during summer break."
"THAT'S where you're wrong my friend. Fun doesn't pay the rent or our living expenses."
"Fine, where do you work?"
"Yumi's Cooking."
"Where are you staying?"
"By this HUGE estate about a fifteen minute's walk from there."
"Wait are you staying in a three story summer home?" Haru asks.
"Yeah, why?"
"No reason."
"Whatever." Audrey gives up.
"Where are you from? In America I mean."
"Texas." Audrey answers.
"Is that the state with the cowboy reputation?"
"Yes, but it's not all western like some people say it to be. I hate it when people ask me if I'm from Texas and they end up sayin' something like 'howdy partner!' It's just so undermining!"
"Hey you still want your phone back right?"
"No I just called to say you could have it. Of course I want it back!"
"Alright, I'll bring it over, chill out." Audrey hears a knock at the door.
"Hang on I have to go answer the door."
"Alright."
Audrey opens the door to see Haru standing outside. "Hatsuharu! How'd you get here!"
"You can call me Haru if you like. May I come in?" Haru asks.
"Sure Haru, right. Come on in then. You still haven't answered my question though."
"Oh that? I ran."
"You what! From where!" Audrey stares at him dumbfounded.
"From right next door." Audrey stiffens. "What?"
"You failed to mention that on the phone."
"Mention what?"
"That we're next door neighbors."
"Oh yeah, that. Well I didn't want it to seem awkward to you and I have to admit I was wondering who that was running down the street the other day. That and I was surprised to find you lived next to the Sohma mansion as well."
"We live next to Momiji!" Alaina burst from her hiding spot on the kitchen.
"She must have been listening to the whole conversation." Audrey and Haru think in unison.
"Alaina don't you have to be at work?"
"No."
"Why?"
"I quit."
"…You what?"
"Yeah I quit. I couldn't stand another day with Brittney, so Momiji got me a job with one of his friends."
"Oh, okay."
"Um, Audrey?" Alaina asks.
"Yeah?"
"Are you planning on wearing that backwards all day?"
Audrey looks down at her shirt to find she has it inside out and backwards. "Excuse me one moment." Audrey runs up the steps to change into her uniform. She felt really lazy today.
Alaina turns to Haru with an evil smile on her face. "Well… Now that we're alone, I have a few questions to ask you."
Audrey comes back down a few minutes later to hear Alaina ask extremely loud "C'mon, I gotta know, did you kiss her or not!"
"Hasn't she already told you this?"
"Heh. Like I'm going to believe her on that one!" Alaina scoffs.
"Alaina!" Audrey yells.
"Hi Audrey, I was just talking to Hatsuharu about our last meeting."
"Alaina." You could see Audrey's temple throbbing.
"Well, I'll just go out for a walk." Alaina runs out the door before Audrey can lay a hand on her.
All the while Haru is walking up to Audrey while she's mumbling "I'll kill her. I swear I'll kill her." Over and over again.
"Umm, Audrey-sama.?"
"Yes?"
"Would you mind if I walked you to work?"
"No, but I need to find Adrianna-chan."
Alaina pops back in. "Oh by the way, Brittney took Adrianna to work today. She said not to worry."
"Alaina!" Audrey yells.
"Going!"
"Please try and calm down. I know it's hard but you look like you're ready to murder."
"Because I am."
Haru sweat-drops. "Maybe we should go now before your target comes in range again."
"Okay." Audrey picks up her flute and she walks out the door making sure to leave it unlocked for Alaina. They're friends, so they have to put up with each other. They had walked quite a ways when Haru says "I can't believe you left your cell phone at the restaurant."
"Lay off. Last night was a bit weird." Audrey says.
"Well Akito talked about you after your date."
"How do you know-"
"Word travels with family."
"Okay so what did he say?"
"Do you care if it's good or bad?"
"Nope."
"Really?"
"Yeah, all I've ever gotten from a guy is insults, so why should it change now?"
"Okay… He said you were an ugly wench, immature, and he felt like you were pushing him around last night with an encounter from your friends, or very obnoxious as he put it."
"I can take an insult right now. I'm just glad it's not during one of those stressing periods I have sometimes." Haru started getting uncomfortable. "Not menstrual period you dork! I probably should have said mood."
"Well what's so special about a stressful mood?"
"If I've been under a lot of stress with things popping up unexpectedly and I get insult after insult after insult, with no release or relaxation, I'll breakdown."
"Is this one of those stressful times?" Haru asks.
"If it is, it's probably just beginning, so I can take it either way." Silence "So why did you have my cell phone?"
"I was making a documentary about this summer break. And for part of it I thought I'd make fun of and compliment Americans."
"You're lucky you're not Alaina." Audrey answers.
Haru laughs "I said compliment did I not?"
"Yes, but-"
"Okay, then here's a compliment… You look beautiful to me and you're funny in the right situations."
Audrey was awestruck "Thank you. That really made my day. Hopefully nothing will ruin it. I'd hug you, but no one in your family likes hugs."
"Yeah, it's genetic."
"I'd kiss you, but it'd be awkward."
Haru laughs. "Well I'll see you later maybe."
"Yeah see you." Audrey walks in to work. 'Maybe this trip wouldn't be so bad after all' she thinks to herself
A FEW HOURS LATER (LUNCH TIME)
Well, Audrey's day was officially ruined. Somehow a guy got drunk and he chased all the customers out which left him and the employees there. She tolerated it for a while, until he started hitting on Adrianna-chan. She stormed towards him and the Manager. She put off furiously pissed waves of rage towards the man, hoping he'd get the message. He didn't.
"Excuse me sir, you can't treat the employees like that and she's a high school girl for God's sake!" Audrey yells.
"Oh yeah? And what's an ugly bitch like you going to do about it?"
"Sir!" The manager says appauled. "I'm calling security."
"Screw security!" Audrey yelled arms flailing in the air. "I'll throw this punk out myself!"
"Hold on a minute there, Audrey-sama. I don't want you to have to-"
"You want to throw him out too don't you?"
"Please?"
Audrey smacks the guy to where it made him unconscious and took his arm "Grab his arm" The manager took the other arm and they both threw him in the dumpster by the restaurant. They got back up to the door and Audrey says "By the way, I don't really know your name. I know you know mine."
"It's Makoto Takei." Makoto answers.
"Thank you, so you're not mad a WOMAN had to HELP you throw out a customer?"
"Not at all. In fact I was honored that a fine musician such as yourself helped me with that pompous fool."
Audrey smiles. "Thank you" Her day was returned to normal and she was happy again. That is, until an hour later when Audrey saw two very familiar people walk into the restaurant.
"I swear, does the world not want me to be happy today?" Audrey almost cries as Adrianna shakes her head in mirth.
