With New Years approaching, I'm trying to write all I can! I have to update my other story too... ah...

I do not own Aikatsu Stars!

"Good morning girls," Hime greeted as she entered the cafe.

"Good morning!" Yume grinned.

Hime put her bag down and looked at them all, "Today is going to be a little different in the cafe."

They stared at her.

"What do you mean?" Laura asked.

Hime smiled, "Well…"

~0~

"Fun! Fun! Cranking Your Heart Full-Throttle!"

"Welcome back everyone!" Subaru greeted, "Thanks for sticking with us!"

"Before we go, we've got a special segment prepared for tomorrow," Nozomu smiled.

The camera turned to Asahi, "Remember S4's Four Star cafe?"

"Tomorrow we are going to be working at the cafe," Kanata informed.

Asahi jumped up, "So make sure you stop by to see us!"

"Goodbye!"

~0~

"What?" Yume gasped.

Ako's eyes went wide, "Really? Today?"

Hime nodded, "Yes, the boys are on their way now. They will be working with one of you, so it'll be a team. Alright?"

They nodded in agreement.

"Good," Hime smiled, "Now, I made some slips with their names that you can draw from, just so we won't have any arguments about who to pair who with." She pulled out a velvet bag from her bag and held it in front of Yume, letting her take a paper out. "One of them are blank, since there are five of you and four of them," Hime continued. She let the others take the slips before letting them open them.

Mahiru stared at her slip, then waved it in the air, "I got blank."

Ako excitedly opened hers next, "I got… Asahi?"

"Nozomu," Laura stated.

"I have Subaru," Koharu read.

Yume smiled as she opened hers, "So that means I got Kanata!" She confirmed.

Ako hissed, inching towards Koharu stealthily.

"No trading," Hime proclaimed, looking through her bag.

Ako deflated.

Just then the doors opened, causing all of them to look up as M4 entered.

"Hey everyone, morning!" Subaru called out.

"Subaru!" Ako squealed, covering her cheeks.

Hime waved, "Morning you guys. I have your uniforms ready for each of you."

Subaru grinned, "Great! We look forward to working with you."

Hime nodded, "Us too. We already decided the pairs; Asahi and Ako, Laura and Nozomu, Yume and Kanata, and Koharu and Subaru. Is that okay?"

Subaru nodded, "Sure, that's fine."

Hime handed them their uniforms, then glanced back at the girls, "Well you girls go get dressed, too. We're sure to be busy today."

"Yes, ma'am!"

~0~

Yume placed the meals down on the table with Kanata following right beside her. "Here you are!"

"Enjoy your meal," Kanata said smoothly, causing the table of girls to swoon.

As they walked away back to the kitchen, Yume glanced at Kanata with a smile, "You're very charming."

Kanata smirked, "Thanks."

Hime was waiting by the kitchen, and looked over as they approached. "It's picking up, so we're splitting up now."

Yume nodded, "Okay. Good luck!" She told Kanata.

Kanata replied, "You too."

~0~

"I'm gonna wait outside!" Yume called out to the girls inside the locker room.

Koharu waved at her, "Okay!"

Yume laughed at their liveliness and went to the cafe. It had been a really busy and loud day. She wanted to rest her ears for a bit.

As she approached the center of the cafe, she heard chatter. It was M4.

Putting a smile on her face, Yume went forward.

"I don't like Yume!"

Yume froze, her smile falling and she let out a gasp, "What?" She asked weakly, staring at Subaru.

Subaru and the others spun around.

Asahi stiffened and let out a nervous whistle, "Well, look at the time, Nozomu, Kanata. I think we should go wait outside for the car."

Nozomu nodded, "Agreed."

Subaru jumped, looking at them as they stepped out of the cafe, "You guys!"

Kanata gave him a shrug and closed the door between them.

Yume watched silently.

Subaru glared at the door, then slowly turned around, "Eh, l-listen, Yume…"

Yume put a hand up to stop him, "It's okay. You don't like me. You don't have to waste your time with me."

Subaru gaped at her, speechless.

Yume tugged at the strap of her bag then moved to walk around him. She was beginning to feel her eyes burn.

"Wait," Subaru repeated, more sternly.

Yume stopped and looked up at him.

"I… it's not you. It's just that… we don't really know each other that well, ya know?" He rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

Yume shrugged, not trusting her voice.

"S-So maybe…" Subaru stuttered pink dusting his cheeks, "we could? Get to know each other, I mean?"

Yume blinked in surprise, "Like what?"

Subaru's face was red, "Uh, well, like maybe we could go out for a movie or lunch…?"

Yume felt her cheeks warm, "You want to have lunch together?" She paused, "O-Okay. Like a, like a date, right?"

"Yea!" Subaru shouted, "Unless you don't want it to be!"

Yume shook her head, "No, that- it's fine with me." She smiled softly.

"Oh," Subaru burned red, "Well I'll…" he cleared his throat, "text you later then…"

Yume nodded, her face bright red as well, "Okay. I look forward to it… boiled octopus."

She covered her laugh as Subaru gaped at her, "What? You can't call me that when you look redder than a tomato!"

Yume laughed out loud, and Subaru quickly joined her.

"What's so funny?"

Yume sighed and turned to see Laura and the others coming. She shook her head, "It's nothing."

Laura raised an eyebrow, but dropped it.

Yume pulled her bag securely over her shoulder, "Are you guys ready to go?"

Laura snickered and glanced at their redhead friend who was ducking behind Mahiru, "Yea, Ako over there lost her shirt." She lowered her voice and held a hand over the side of her face and looked at Yume as if she was telling a secret, "It was in the locker next to the one she opened."

Yume covered her laugh as Ako jumped out from behind Mahiru and tried to claw at Laura.

Subaru grinned and made his way to the door, "Well then, let's all head out." He said as he held the door open for all of them.

The boys of M4 were smirking at Subaru when he rejoined them.

Yume waved at them, "Bye guys! We had fun today!"

Nozomu smiled back, "Of course. We did too."

"Yea!" Asahi agreed, "It was great!"

Subaru shrugged, "I probably prefer getting served than serving."

They all laughed at him.

"That does sound better!" Yume agreed. She turned as the two groups parted ways, "Good night!"
