Hi everyone! Nighttime Mistress here and about. I just want to say... did anyone actually READ chapter 5? Okay, so it didn't have the Kisshu/Joushu fluff you all were hoping for, but you people have to know that they're still distant from each other. Plus their just friends, even though they won't later. I'm soo sorry for not updating. I was trying to straighten and type up this chapter. But now, I've decided that I'll make it up to all of you.
Kish: With having me here though out this whole fic.
NM: Um, no. As I was saying, (glares at Kish who shrugs) I'm going to make it up to all of you by having a chapter in which I have a lot of thought about doing. Then again. Most of the chapters I always say I give a lot of thought about
Kish: Yup! She's having Pudding and Tart-
NM: (slaps hand over his mouth) How many times have I told you to stop looking in my fic notebook!
Kish: (puts up his index finger)
NM: Good point. Do the disclaimer and I'll have you and Joushu to do you big scene in chapter 9. (takes hand off his mouth)
Kish: Yay! Okay people, my moon koneko-chan does not own TMM. If she did, she'd probably be filthy rich and living in a 2 story house in Japan with-
NM: Kish don't tell them that part.
Kish: Oops. Gomen nasi.
NM: This chapter is dedicated to Candyberry. I have to admit, if I didn't review her fic "Lonely Nights" and tell about my fic, I wouldn't have any reviews right now. So Candyberry, this chappie is for you for showing me so much love.
Kish: Arigato Candyberry-chan!
(both Kish and NM do victory dance)
NM: On with the fic!
Now that she's a developing young
women, what can be better for
Pudding than spending time with
someone you like? Oh, wait.
That probably won't be good.
Chapter 6: Let Me Show You the World;
Pudding's First Date Part 1
4:23 p.m.
Café Mew Mew
Sunday
Bustling and rushing was all that came about in Café Mew Mew. Blurs of red, green, purple, yellow, and black were going here and there from table to table, giving customers their orders and returning empty plates to Akasaka-san. From there, they do the same process.
"I really can't wait till this shift is over." Joushu whined to Ichigo as they hurried pasted each other.
"I always think and say the same thing Jou." Ichigo responded to her as they pasted each other again.
"Get a move on Joushu and Ichigo. This isn't social hour you know." Minto hollered at the two, as she sipped her tea in her polite manner.
Joushu gave Minto the 'I really hate you right now' look giving a small growl. Ichigo put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't waste your breath on her Jou. Trust me."
Joushu sighed and gave Mint one last slumped glance. "Good point." she replied.
"Speaking of point," Ichigo continued handing chocolate cheese cake and strawberry short cake to table 5, "I think there's something very wrong with Pudding."
"What do you mean? She seems happy to me." Joushu said seeing Pudding serving her customers while doing a back flip. The crowd cheered as Pudding gave herself a bow. "Arigato! Arigato na no da!" Pudding said happily.
Ichigo's brown eyes saddened a bit. "Yeah but wasn't she all sad yesterday? What if something happened when she was sweeping out back?"
Joushu turned to Ichigo, giving her a serious look. "Look, if Pudding has something on her mind and she doesn't want to talk about it, that's her business. She not a little 10 year old girl anymore Ichigo. She's 13 now." she said as she gave a cup of creamed coffee to table 11 leaving Ichigo just standing there.
'I just hope this isn't a sign of depression.' Ichigo thought. With a sigh, she followed suit with Joushu as both girls continued their shifts.
(Kish: (raises an eyebrow at NM) "A sign of depression."?
NM: (shrugs) It could happen.)
1 hour and 37 minutes later
(Yup! I counted)
"Finally. The shift is finished, and I wanna go home." Joushu sighed wiping a table clean. The shift was done, mostly everyone was tired, and it really felt good to just have the day be over all ready. As she looked up, she saw Ichigo with her chin on her palm, dazed somewhere. Curious about what she was looking at, Joushu spotted her looking at the cash register. There was Pudding, bouncing in the seat behind it counting away today's tips.
Joushu sighed and shook her head. She knew where this was going. She set the cleaning cloth on the table and pulled out a chair next to Ichigo. "Ichigo?" she said.
Ichigo snapped out of her daze and turned to Joushu. "Huh? Nanda?"
"Didn't I tell you to stop your worrying on Pudding?"
Ichigo gave Joushu a worried look. "I know I shouldn't, but what if-"
Joushu cut her of with a wave of her hand. "Say no more Ichigo. If it makes you feel any better, I'll talk to Pudding."
Ichigo face seemed to light up. "Thanks Jou." she said, and went to finish wiping to tables clean with Lettuce.
Joushu silently approached Pudding as she counted today's tips.
"91, 92, 93, 94... Anou, daijobou Joushu onee-chan na no ka?" Pudding asked as she finally noticed Joushu in front of her.
"I'm just fine Pudding. Can I talk to you?" said Joushu.
Puding cocked her head to one side, looking awfully confused.
"Okay, what's up?"
Joushu looked away, laughing a bit. "You might think that this is crazy Pudding, but for some reason, Ichigo and I are worried about you."
Pudding scrunched her eyebrows together, still looking confused. "Why?" she asked.
Joushu turned to look at Pudding again. "Remember when yesterday you went to go sweep out back?"
"Yeah."
"Well, yesterday you were all sad, now today you're happy. Don't get me wrong, that's a good thing." Joushu added grinning as Pudding grew a smile.
"I was wondering... did anything happen while you were sweeping? Like did a long lost friend come back yesterday?"
Pudding felt a little guilt at that question. Yes, a long lost friend did come back and rocked her world, but if she did tell Joushu, will Joushu tell everyone else about Tart? Pudding didn't want another "Aliens vs. Humans" war to start all over again like the one 3 years ago.
"Actual Joushu, yes." Pudding replied.
Joushu's eyebrows rose. "Really?"
Pudding's smiled wider. "Yup."
Joushu rested her chin on her palm. "Is it a boy?"
Pudding blushed hard.
Joushu smirked. "So it is a boy. Is he cute?"
Pudding blushed harder.
Joushu giggled a bit. "Geez, I'm good at this." Then she gave an evil smirk. "Do you think he's sexy?"
Pudding wide eyed Joushu incredulously. "Joushu onee-chan!"
"I was just wondering." Joushu said while laughing and walking away. "It's not like you two are going on a date, right?"
Pudding turned as red as a tomato. "Well...actually..."
Joushu stopped dead in her tracks and turned to look at Pudding, with a evil smile on her face. With that, she zipped back in front of Pudding with a SCREECH. "You're joking, right?" she said.
The monkey girl just shook her head innocently.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the café door. After fussing with Ichigo to move out the way, (since both girls did reach to the door in unison.) Joushu swung to double doors open.
"Welcome to Café Mew Mew! We're sorry but we are closed for today. Come back tomorrow!" she said happily.
"But, I have a delivery."
Standing there was a teen delivery boy, no older than 13, with a long, light lavender colored box in his hands. "I have a package for Miss. Purin Fong?" he said as he read the package address.
Pudding popped up next to Joushu. "That's me." she said pointing to herself.
The delivery boy took out a clipboard and pen. "Just sign here." he said pointing to the long dotted line.
Joushu and Pudding looked at each other, Pudding just shrugged and signed her name. Returning the clipboard with a "Arigato na no da!", both girls shut the door with the package in Pudding's arms.
"What was that all about?" Ichigo asked while sitting in a near by chair.
"Who knows, but I got a package." Pudding said bringing the box over the table in which Ichigo sat, and placed it there.
This brought the curiosity to Lettuce, Minto, and Zakuro as they too were curious of what was hidden in the mysterious box. Soon a crowd was formed around only Pudding.
"What if it's from the other alien enemies?" asked Zakuro.
"Onee-sama is right. What if it is?" Minto asked as well.
"That will just be plain stupid though." said Joushu.
"What if Pudding has a secret admire?" chimed Lettuce.
"Kawaii! Someone might like you Pudding." Ichigo squealed.
"Or stalk you for that matter." Joushu said scowling.
Pudding just grinned. "Whatever it is, it'll probably be something unforgettable." she said and opened the box's lids. Everyone gasped as they saw what the box contained.
Inside the box were 1 dozen of white roses, a heart-shaped box of chocolates, and a small box of black velvet. As Pudding opened that one too, she was almost blinded by the magnificentness. A crystal child angel sat in a box of velvet holding a crystal butterfly. It was so pretty and delicate as everyone "Ooooh" and "Ahhhhh" at its beauty.
"It's so pretty." said Lettuce as she awed the crystal angel in wonder.
"So romantic." cooed Ichigo on the white roses.
"So unbelieveable!" yelled Joushu voice as she read a small note attached to the roses.
"Let me see." said Pudding as Joushu handed the bouquet to Pudding.
"Whoever this person is has very sexy handwriting, I can tell you that." Joushu snorted with a smirk on her face.
Pudding blushed as she read the note with everyone else huddled around Pudding.
Hope you liked my box of goodies. Can't wait you see you later.
XOXOX
Everyone's jaw (except Joushu's) dropped.
"Um... Wow."
"Couldn't agree more onee-sama."
"That was unexpected."
"This person does have sexy handwriting."
By the time Pudding read a near by clock, which read 6:00 p.m., she was already out the door with her boxed present in her arms.
000000000()0000000000
Pudding ran as fast as her legs could carry her home. She had so mush things to do. First she had to make sure her siblings were asleep before she left. After that, she had to fine the perfect outfit, do her hair, some make-up, find the perfect shoes, and sneak out. That way, she'll return without her brothers and sister being suspicious. So far, she needed a shower, and a baby-sitter.
"So much to do na no da." moaned Pudding as she finally reached her home, opening the door, and closing the door behind her.
"Hi big sis!" shouted Pudding's little brothers now 7 years old, but Pudding was in such a rush that she ran right past them.
As she reached her room, she slammed the door shut and locked it. First, she pulled out a glittery red dress from her wardrobe that came with white arm length gloves, and a red bow. It had a bit of a medium rank of cleavage when Pudding wore it during a school prom, and it was a spaghetti strapped dress, but it was pretty. Next, Pudding scanned through her room to find the matching shoes. It was kind of hard to do so, when she finally found them under her bed.
She decided she'll do her hair after she finished putting her cloths on after she finished her shower, but first she needed a baby-sitter. Grabbing her cellphone (A/N:Is it just me or is everyone having a cellphone these days.) she dialed her friend, Shinka 's, number.
"Moshi Moshi!" said a female voice happily.
"Shinka, I need your help."
There was a short pause, then "Why?"
Pudding blushed a bit. "Well, I'm going on a date, and I need someone to take care of my siblings. Can you help me?"
Suddenly, Pudding had to pull her phone away from her ear because Shinka was squealing in delight.
"AHHH PUDDING! THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER! I KNEW YOU'D HAVE A BOYFRIEND SOONER OR LATER, AND I WAS RIGHT!" she squealed.
Pudding's left eye started to twitch. "He's not my boyfriend Shinka. He was a long lost friend, and I'm just going to have a little get-together that's all." she replied.
There was a pause. "So why the hell did you say that it was a date?" Shinka asked suspiciously. This made Pudding blush a bit. Taruto did say he did wanted the two of them to spend the night together, but how would she know if he did ask her on a date or not?
"Because... can you just come over and baby-sit, please?" pleaded Pudding quickly changing the subject.
Shinka gave a huff of defeat. "Fine, but you have to show me your date. Hey, I could probably help you will hair and make-up!" she said happily. Pudding just rolled her eyes.
"I don't need help with make-up Shinka." she said.
"Well, you probably would if you want me to help you."
"Whatever Shinka. Just get here please?"
"Okay but seriously. This person has to be really hot to probably date you Pudding."
"Bye Shinka."
"I mean come on. This boy probably has a 6 pack, or an 8 pack, with a nice chest and everything all under a white T with-"
"BYE SHINKA!"
"Fine okay! Geez." And with that, they hung up.
Pudding gave a sigh, and put a hand though her bangs. With that, she continued to get herself ready for her "date".
Preview! (Tokyo Mew Mew preview music plays)
Pudding: Have to get my hair done, find the nice outfit, and have the time of my life. So much to do na no da!
Shinka: Don't worry Pudding. I'll help!
Pudding: Yeah with bugging me. Taruto will probably take me somewhere romantic, and we'll dance the night away. Then seal the night with a kiss.
Shinka: Or he'll just take you to a theme park.
Pudding: WHAT!
Shinka: Hey, he could!
Pudding: Shinka, you're just too crazy.
Shinka: Next chapter: Let Me Show You The World; Pudding's First Date Part 2!
Pudding: Why the hell would Taruto take me to a theme park Shinka?
Shinka: It could happen!
Well there you have it people. There's Part 1. R&R for Part 2 and I'll probably throw in some rainbow candy canes for you all, since the holidays are coming up.
