ChibiDialga: I watched this vid on YouTube of Miku having a new voicebank called, "Miku Hot Sauce."
Meiko: Haha I think I watched that to. And then she starts twerking.
Kaito: Swiggity Swag , whats in the bag.
Gumi: No. (Kicks Kaito)
Kaito: Ooooooh Pain!
ChibiDialga: Also I've been thinking about something.
Meiko: Yeah, what?
ChibiDialga: Tell you later.
Chapter 5: Just be Friends
Neru came through the door huffing and Puffing. Her face was a bright shade of red as if she had just run a mile. She stretched a long pointy finger at Haku who smiled at her. Neru was still huffing trying to get the words out. Meiko looked at her as she sat behind the cash register and let her head lay in the palm of her hand. "Welcome to cafe Vocaloid. What would you like today?" She said a little bit too sarcastically.
"One.. cappu...ccino." Neru breathed as Kaito went to go and make her order. Neru slowly stopped panting as Haku was still staring at her patiently. "Y-you! Where were you?"
"Here, where else?"
"I don't know! You didn't tell me anything! I was worried you just ran away and drank till you committed suicide! I thought you abandoned the rest of us UTAU's and Fanloids!" Neru yelled as Kaito rang the bell for Neru to get her drink. Neru marched up to him and grabbed her cappuccino while throwing money at Meiko. "Would you like your change?" Meiko asked in a bored tone.
"It's your damn tip okay!"
"Enjoy and come back anytime!" Neru grumbled as Haku looked down at her shoes. Haku sniffed trying to keep in her sobs. "I'm sorry." she mumbled.
Neru's eyes widened and Neru just looked away and mumbled that it was okay.
Rin and Len came downstairs a few minutes later and looked like they just got out of bed. Seriously. They were still in their pajamas. They both stopped at Neru and Haku, bowed and then ran over to Meiko. (Well not before Len winked at the two ladies.) They both started saying their apologies for not waking up on time and making Meiko work over time. Meiko only laughed and told them it was okay giving them warm hugs. Well Len was enjoying it more but still, it was adorable.
Rin and Len were in charge and customers came in and out. Miku and Luka also eventually woke up. The door opened to reveal a customer that made Luka jump in happiness. She ran over and hugged the customer who was on his phone texting. Luka pulled away from and got a sad look in her eyes as she realized the customer didn't even say hi to her and just sat with at one of the tables. That customer was Luka's boyfriend.
Now he wasn't a vocaloid. Just a plain old human but Luka enjoyed being with him more than other humans. But lately, she hasn't seen him as much as she use to and she's been enjoying his visits less and less as the days went by. Luka poked him and the guy mumbled a what, still not taking his eyes off the phone. Luka sighed. She remembered all the times he would immediately give her all his attention and listen to everything she said to him. But it seems that was gone. " I'm gonna go up on stage today, okay?"
"Okay." Luka nodded. She sighed as he only looked up at her for a second and gave her a small smile and then went back to his phone. Miku skipped over to Luka and tapped her shoulder. "Luka-chan! Want to sing with me today?"
Luka shook her head and patted the pouting Miku's head." Sorry Miku. Maybe some other time."
"Promise?"
"Promise." Luka and Miku entwined their pinkies together and Miku went to sit next to Kaito. Bad Miku! It's your turn to hold the fort and your lazying around. Oh well, the authors gotta do what the authors gotta do.
Neru raised an eyebrow at Miku suspiciously. She nudged Haku, who was talking to Meiko, in the shoulder. "What's going on over there?" Neru snickered.
Haku's eyes scanned arounod the room until she found what Neru was talking about. Her eyes narrowed at Kaito and Miku laughing with each other. Slowly realization dawned on Haku whose eyes widened as she looked at Neru. "You're a KaiMiku Supporter!"
Neru laughed as if what Haku just said was obvious. "Duh? It's pretty obvious they should be together! I mean come on they look so cute together!"
Haku's sweet smile began to vanish as her eyes began to turn dark. "You make me sick." She said looking down on Neru.
"What? Why?" Neru asked starting to panic. Len floated to Neru. "Don't worry Neru-Chan! You'd never make ME sick!"
Len had hearts all around him as Neru was still looking at Haku in panic. Rin walked up from behind him and slapped him on the back of his head. "Ow! What was that for!" Len asked rubbing the back of his head.
Rin's eyes widened. If it was any other girl, he would have pouted and tried to say he was sorry. Why was he acting so different with her? Rin slapped on his face and turned away and walked over to Kaito. Len trailed after her asking her what was wrong with her. Len would probably have to go to the hospital at the route he was going.
Haku still stared at Neru her eyes cold and dark. " ' .It." Neru jumped out of her chair and looked at Haku in disbelief. "WHAT! That's stupid! Why the hell would someone not ship it!"
"Because. In my eyes I see that KaiMei is canon."
"THAT IS PROBABLY THE WORST PAIRING! They sound horrible with each other!"
"NO THEY DON'T! MIKU'S VOICE IS TOO HIGH AS WELL FOR KAITO! Kaito and Meiko were made for each other!"
"THEY DON'T LOOK GOOD TOGETHER!"
"YES THEY DO!"
"NO."
"YES."
Kaito looked at the two arguing girls and lifted up a finger. "Don't I get a say-"
"SHUT UP!" They yelled. Everyone was about to start yelling.
Luka went on stage to see everyone arguing about something. She looked at her boyfriend texting away on his phone. "This is for you." She said, even though only her boyfriend heard it and flinched a little. She breathed in slowly as she looked at her "family."
"Megurine Luka outfit change: Chiffon Dress!"
Song: Just Be Friends
Singer: Megurine Luka
Just Be Friends
Everyone looked up at Luka who was starting to sing. They stopped bickering. Miku also went behind the counter remembering she was on duty. Good Girl!
Just be friends All we gotta do
Just be friends Just be friends...
Luka's boyfriend looked up from his phone and slowly met eyes with Luka.
As if I'm gathering piece of broken glass? Blood drips from my cut fingers
I wonder if we wanted to do these kinds of things
Miku dropped a glass. She's paying $7.99 for that.
I wonder when we can talk
Luka's boyfriend looked a little guilty as Haku and Neru looked at each other and sighed.
In this slowly decaying world
A path for my struggling self
I carve in your colorless smile
I pulled off the plug
Luka's boyfriend turned off his phone and gave Luka his full attention as Luka tried her best to smile.
I shouted until my voice was dry
The echo reverberates in the empty air
Although there was nothing left
After the chains were removed
Haku and Neru sniffed.
Fate that allowed us to meet
The darkness interrupts countless and relentless time
"So this is how it is..." I murmured
Somebody's tears flow down dried cheeks
And then they cried.
I realized at yesterday's quiet night
Rin and Len smiled at Meiko as they remembered how they couldn't sleep until Meiko gave them a kiss on the head.
I remembered the season when we first met
And your sweetly smiling face
I push the present to the past and received the scars that we both got
Our hearts are full of thorns
Luka's heart started beating faster as the memories of him and her flooded her mind.
Goodbye my loved one... This is the end
Now we look go on without looking back
Luka was trying to not make her sob show in her voice and was trying to push back her tears. Haku and Neru were wailing like babies now.
This is the end
(Just be friends All we gotta do
Just be friends It's time to say goodbye)
Just be friends All we gotta do
Just be friends (Just be friends) It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends (Just be friends) All we gotta do
Just be friends (Just be frien~ds)It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends (~)All we gotta do
Just be friends (~)It's time to say goodbye
Just be friends
"It's over."
Luka breathed in heavily as she realized tear were falling from her eyes. She lifted her hand to her wet cheek and quickly tried to wipe away her tears with her arm. she walked over to her now ex and hugged him. He had little tears coming out of his eyes to. "I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault. It's mine." He said hugging her back. "You're right. Let's just be friends." He let go of Luka and wiped the tears off her cheek. He kissed her cheek gently and walked out the door. Luka watching his back as his figure left. Luka fell to the ground and cried. "What have I done." She sobbed as the memories of him and her came into her mind. Miku came to Luka who shrugged her away and ran upstairs and cried on her bed. Miku stared at the stairs and sighed.
Len came and gave her a hug to which she gladly accepted. Neru's mouth dropped to the floor. Fang her worst nightmares were coming true weren't they? Miku X Len?How unlucky could she get. Haku came and pat her back. "Don't worry. There's always hope." Haku whispered as they glanced at Rin who was watching Len and Miku quietly.
She sighed and walked over Meiko who gave her a little hug. Rin buried her face and wept quietly. Meiko patted her back and smiled warmly at her. "Kid's these days and their romance issues."
Kaito came up to Meiko. "You sound like you don't have any, Mei-chan."
Meiko looked up at Kaito with a bit of a twinkle in her eyes. "That's because I don't."
Neru almost fainted. Why was the world not being in her favor right now. And as if the world wanted to make her feel like dying, Len gave Miku a little kiss on the head, Haku only smiled and gave Neru a hug who was wailing. Again.
Luka all by herself in her room cried on her pillow that night. But it was just an extra step in her life that would lead her to what's ahead.
ChibiDialga: Ahh the shipping wars. What will we do?
Meiko: You said some thing about telling me something earlier.
ChibiDialga: Oh, that? I was just thinking of getting you and Kaito married.
Meiko: WHAT?
Kaito: Yay!
ChibiDialga: But then I remembered I was trying to be passive on the shipping in this chapter. Also just so you know, I think you and Kaito sound the best with each other.
Meiko: Errr..
ChibiDialga: Review! Tell me what shippping you want more of and I'll try to put it in for you!
I don't own any of the vocaloids!
