_____________________________________________

It was a stormy night at Cafè Mew Mew; five girls were hard at work, cleaning dishes, taking orders, sweeping floors. All except for one.

"Ichigo! yelled the smart, green-haired girl known as Lettuce. The green Mew knew it was pointless to try and get Ichigo's attention but she tried anyways, and as usual, silence met her ears.

"That's it!", screamed out Mint; the blue haired girl of the five. "I have had enough of her attitude, she just sits around here moping all day and staring off into space, its about time somebody slapped some sense into that kid." Mint marched over to where Ichigo was sitting; she crouched down so she was at eye level with the red-haired girl.

"Ichigo, honey", Mint started off sweetly "if you do not get your butt off that chair and start busting some tables, I will MAKE you." she finished harshly with a menacing smirk.

"Huh? Ichigo slowly looked up but when she did, she instantly regretted it. Her co-worker was glaring down at her, hands balled up into fists. Ichigo knew that Mint wouldn't start a fight but she still felt a bit uneasy.

"Ichigo, what's gotten into you!?"

W-what do you mean?" Ichigo replied softly, shifting her gaze so it was focused on the Cafè floor. She knew exactly what Mint was talking about. Ever since she found out the her so called boyfriend was cheating on her with another girl things have been pretty rough, especially since she discovered hidden feelings toward the well known alien, Kisshu.

"Oh, Ichigo don't play dumb with me!" she replied "you know what I mean.." Mint droned on and on about how Ichigo was being a pain in the neck, that she should at least tell them what was going on, and if not then just suck it up, then something about making her tea too cold. But Ichigo didn't hear any of this she was too busy day dreaming about a certain alien. She couldn't wait for quitting time so she could rip off her uniform and rush home to finally have fun with Kish.

"Arghh! I give up!" yelled Mint "if Ryou decides to fire you the good riddance!I will personally walk you to the door if he does!" she turn away and dramatically flipped her blue locks over her shoulder.

When Mint was finally out of sight Ichigo got up from the heart-shaped chair and walked over to the door on her right labeled "Kitchen" when she walked in the smell of cinnamon, cakes, and assorted candies greeted her.

"Mmmm." she breathed in "that smells heavenly."

"Not as good as you kitty cat." a voice said behind her.

Ichigo whirled around to see who had spoken. "Kisshu!" she exclaimed as she rushed into his awaiting arms, a light blush covering her cheeks.

He chucked "So I take it that you missed me?"

"You have no idea." Ichigo replied with a smile. She lifted her head up so she could gaze into his golden eyes, it was so easy to get lost in them. When she finally looked down she noticed that his face was inching closer to hers, suddenly she started freaking out.

"Oh my gosh!" she mentally screamed "He's going to kiss me!! What to I do? Just stay calm. Calm, cool, and collected. Wait, what did I have for lunch today? Was it fish? Oh gosh, I hope it wasn't fish, my breath would smell disgusting! Breathe, Breathe, In 1, 2, 3 Out 1, 2, 3.. I'm going to puke! Just shut up Ichigo just concentrate on the moment. she mentally chided herself.

She slowly peered her eyes open, his lips where a couple of inches away from hers. Slowly Kisshu leaned in, gently placing his lips on hers. After a few short moments of realizing what was happening, Ichigo slowly closed her eyes and kissed him back.

Ichigo quickly pulled away when she heard the Kitchen door opening, suddenly Pudding burst through the door, all covered in flour.

"Ichigo!" the yellow haired Mew yelled. "Ryou needs to see you, he says its somethi-" she stopped in the middle of her sentence when she saw Kisshu standing beside Ichigo, holding her close against him.

"Wha-!?", Pudding called out confused "I'm telling!!!!!" she yelled and quickly ran out of the room, but Kish was faster. He teleported in front of the startled 10 year old and grabbed her by the shoulders.

"Let me go!" she screamed trying to kick him, she finally thought better and whipped out her Power Pendant. "Mew Pudding Meta-morpho-" she couldn't finish since a a strong hand clamped over her mouth.

"Kish, let her go", Ichigo started " she's a 9 year old! You don't grab little kids by the shoulders, you could have hurt her! Now put her down."

As soon as Pudding was free out of Kisshu's clutches she right away asked Ichigo what was going on and if Kish was her "Secret boyfriend."
Ichigo laughed "It's a long story Pudding." she replied, her face turned scarlet as the little girl refered to Kisshu as her boyfriend.

The yellow-haired girl started jumping up and down and yelling; "I wanna KNOW! Oh, please tell me!!! I can keep a secret!!"

"Pudding no, please just do me a favour and don't tell anyone about what you saw, me and Kish are just friends, but if the other Mew's found out, not to mention Ryou I would be kicked off the team!" Ichigo pleaded with her.

"But Ichigo!"

"I said no Pudding, please just stop."

"Fine", she grumbled, "but you owe me!" she finished with a smile, and skipped away.

"You just wait Ichigo, I will find out whats going on between you and Kisshu ! And when I do, I'll tell the others!! Detective Pudding is on the case!"
