Aya sighed softly almost pleased the shop was empty except for him and Omi. It was the first day of the new week and he was almost looking forward to finally dating one of his teammates. Not that he didn't like the Schwartz members because he did it was just that he felt a lot less pressure with his own team. He felt a smile curve on his lips at the thought of liking the Schwartz members. "What are you smiling about?" He looked to the little blond sitting back in his stool rocking back and forth slightly. "Just a thought I had about actually liking the members of Schwartz for the most part when a year ago we were all locked in a battle to the death in the tower." Omi made a small noise in the back of his throat looking down at his hands.

Omi wasn't sure he wanted to broach the subject of Ken and what he was thinking with Aya. He wasn't sure where he and Aya may lead and he didn't want to risk anything. "Its ok to talk to me Omi. I hate to be so blunt seeing as that is more Ken's thing but I honestly don't think you and I can be more than friends." He nodded and looked up smiling walking over to his leader and hopping up on the counter. "It's nice to have a friend." Aya nodded slightly and he took a deep shuddering breath letting it out slowly. "I'm worried about Ken." He said and watched as Aya sat back. He was chewed on his bottom lip as Aya sat quietly across from him for a long time. "I am too. He didn't let it show but that very first day was hard on him. I just hope things don't end up like that for him or for any of us honestly." He nodded and leaned forward smiling slightly. "So lets compare notes on all of those we have dated." Aya rose a slender brow but nodded pulling out a slip of paper writing down every one he had dated.

"So what did you think of Nagi?" Omi asked his voice soft afraid of what Aya might say.

"He's a sweet kid but he's not really my type."

Omi let out a small sigh of relief and grinned. "What about Crawford I haven't had my week with him yet?"

Aya gave a small graceful shrug and gently drummed his fingers on the counter thinking. "I honestly can't give you an opinion. He's nice but I feel him and I are a little too much alike to really get along well. You might have better luck than I did."

He smiled and gently patted Aya on the shoulder. "I think I'd like a second chance with Schu. I thought I loved him but now I'm not sure. I mean I do love Schu but it's almost the same way I love Ken. More as a brother or best friend over lover and I think I've just been confused about it all."

Aya nodded his silent agreement and sighed softly. "Omi I think I might be falling in love with Ken."

He blinked rapidly and looked into violet eyes seeing the truth in the statement. "I…I wish you luck Aya. I just wish I knew who Ken was in love with. Stupid Schuldich he should never have told me he knew who Ken was in love with."

Aya very calmly grabbed Omi's hand looking into his eyes. "Schuldich knows who Ken is in love with?"

Omi nodded his blue eyes gone wide as his small hand trembled. He smiled and gently patted the boy's hand glancing at the clock. "Time to close shop. Lets go get dinner after this I don't feel like cooking." Omi nodded hopping off the counter.

The rest of the week went well it was quiet in the shop and Aya and Omi would talk then hang out like friends either by themselves or with the others. Aya spent all of his extra energy trying to track down Schuldich to talk to him but it was hard when the other redhead was hardly ever around. He'd have to talk to Ken and say how he wanted to date Schuldich. He'd get his answer one way or another.
