A/N: I'm really sorry for not updating earlier. It's just that whenever I get on the computer I get sidetracked by Youtube, Nico, the urge to watch anime, and the urge to find more anime to watch... I'M SORRY!

To make up for it, I made this chapter pretty long. Hope you like it!

I do not own Vocaloid.

What?! The girls are coming along with us to get some food? I pulled Dell over along with the other guys to a corner of the room. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the girls do the same with the girl who agreed to Dell's idea (We should really learn each other's names).

"What the hell?! Dell, why did you invite those girls along?! They're just going to buy a bunch of food to waste our money and not eat any of it. You know how girls are! Why invite them?" Dell looked at my brother Len who was glaring at him. If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm Rei. "Relax. I thought that since we're going to form a band together, we might as well get to know each other. It makes sense right?" Dell kept a straight face but his eyes kept flicking back to the eldest girl in the other group. I could tell what he was thinking since I kept looking back at that kind girl who gave me the dropped ornaments. I guess they celebrate Christmas here? Now's not the time to be thinking of that.

Some of the guys muttered 'ok's or 'yeah whatever' but we saw Dell's point. No use in fighting him. I saw that the girl from earlier, I think her name's Rui, come over. We all turned our attention to her since it was the gentlemanly thing to do. "The girls say that we are fine going to get food as long as you are ok with it and don't try anything." All we could do was stare at her. This girl was probably the most polite girl we've ever met. Dell nodded. "We're fine with it and we promise not to do anything. Right, boys?" We nodded. Dell can be really nice but when angered, he's like a monster on a rampage (Sorry dude, but it's true). I couldn't help but stare at her. She was really pretty. Her skin looked soft and smooth, her hair was short and silky, her eyes were large, innocent, and a golden color, and she had a small, petite figure (Sorry, but I'm a guy! Have you ever met a guy who doesn't think like that? I know I haven't). For a minute she looked at me and our eyes met, then she bowed to us and walked back to her group.

Then, the girl with short blonde hair and a white bow on the top of her head shouted "ALRIGHT! LET'S GET SOME GRUB!" She ran out along with the teal haired girl, the dark red haired girl, and the red haired girl. The rest of the girls swear dropped and followed after them. The girl with silver hair went up to Dell. "Where are we eating?" He looked startled and said "Restaurant, food court, or other?" She thought for a minute and said "Why don't we go eat at that new sandwich shop downtown. I heard it's really good." He nodded and she left to tell the rest of her group. We left as well and got in our cars. Well, actually we split up into two cars: Dell drove with Len, Mikuo, and me and Gumo drove with Piko, Nero, and Ted. Dell had a shiny black convertible that he got from his parents for his 17th birthday. Lucky jerk. Gumo had a neon green Lamborghini. Strange color but ok. When I got in the car we saw that the girls were getting in the cars they were going to use. I couldn't see that mush from here but it looked like they were using two cars, too. I can't tell what kind of cars they were but they looked pretty damn shiny. I think I'm gonna go blind. Must shield my eyes!

Ok, ok I'm just playing but still. We drove off, following Dell since he decided to lead everyone to this sandwich shop. I've heard about it from a few kids in class. It opened about two months ago downtown at the Yamaha District Mall.

Yamaha District Mall was one of the largest malls in our town and that was where most kids went to hang out, shop, eat, etc. Hell, the guys and I come here to compete at the arcades. The mall had 4 stories. First flour: grocery store, furniture store, and an arts and crafts store. Second floor: dollar shop, soba restaurant, hello kitty store, various shopping stores, electronics store, sushi restaurant. Third floor: small stage with seats set up, ice cream shop, otaku store, various shopping stores, a food court with 4 different eating choices: Japanese, French, Italian, McDonald's Fourth floor: book store, appliances shop, various shopping stores, magic supply shop, and most important of all, the arcade. Throughout the mall were stands selling random items such as glasses, caps, hats, watches, you get what I mean.

So I heard the sandwich shop opened on the fourth floor next to the book shop.

Dell and Gumo managed to find parking in the parking lot and thankfully we didn't have to go to the underground parking they had. Dell called Haku, the girl with silver hair, and told her to meet them in the bookstore. So, we went into the said shop and automatically spread out to or favorite things.

Dell, Gumo, and Mikuo go to the sports magazines, Piko and Nero go to the manga section, and Len, Ted, and I went to the novels.
We were there for about 10 minutes when we saw that the girls had arrived. Piko ended up buying five volumes of a manga called Fairy Tail, Ted bought a book called The Amulet of Samarkand, and Mikuo bought the most recent edition of SportsWeekly. After they paid for their books we walked over to the sandwich shop.

The shop was pretty nice and fairly large. I can tell that it will become pretty popular with the decorations and approach to its costumers. The walls were a cream color, they had bulbs that brought bright lighting, there were many plants that adorned the shop, the colors where neither too bright nor too dark, and it had a welcome air to it. The tables were plastic and black and the chairs were either baby blue or light green. There were a fair number of tables and we had to use 4 of them because we broke up into small groups. We ended up going in the groups of four that we used to drive over here. So it was Dell, Len, Mikuo, and me and Gumo, Ted, Piko, and Nero. Looking at the girls I saw that it was (sorry I can't remember half of their names) silver head, Rui, Rin, and teal head and Gumi, red head, Teto, and yellow head. If they heard me now I would probably be dead.

Eventually we all ordered and now we were chatting while we waited for our food to arrive. The four of us in our group started arguing about which was better: Call of Duty or Black Ops. A minute later a woman came up and gave us the drinks we ordered. Dell got some Dr. Pepper, Mikuo got leek juice (-_-'), Len got banana milk, Nero and Ted got a glass of water, Piko got strawberry lemonade, Gumo got carrot juice, and I got Sprite. When I looked over I saw that the girls were chatting and were still waiting for their drinks to arrive. I guess the saying 'Ladies first' doesn't apply here. Too bad, so sad for them I guess. Now where are our sandwiches?

I stirred my glass of water. How boring can this get? Looking over at the girls I saw one of them getting really mad about not getting her drink. What was her name again? It sounded like mine... Teto I think it was. Yeah, Teto. She was raging and yelling about having to wait for her drink. Really, can't girls calm down every once in a while? Sigh. I took a sip of my water, enjoying the feeling of it against my dry throat. The racket started quieting down and I saw the girl from earlier that approached us calming down Teto. Looks like she can calm down every one of those girls! Well, now it's quiet and I can read my book. Before I could even finish the first page Dell nudges me. "It's not polite to read while waiting. Put the book away, Ted!" Well, guess I have to start another time.

Oh look! The girl's drinks are here! Now they can't scream about it. Teto looks really happy now. Huh, she looks kinda cute from here. After a few minutes she walked over and stood in front of me, hands on her hips (you know when you're in trouble when this form is taken). "Can I help you? 'Cause, you keep looking at me." I guess I was staring at her. Well, if I was in her position, it would be kinda awkward if some guy I just met staring at me. But I'm not her so I don't have to worry!

"No, you just look a lot like me so of course I would keep looking." She looked at me with a confused look. It was quickly replaced by a mad scowl. "Look at your entire fucking group. Almost all of us look like each other, AND WE AREN'T EVEN RELATED! The only people who don't look like anybody is Piko and Miki! Care to explain why you're staring at me confused like the idiot you are while every one else looks like they've excepted it already?!" She wasn't exactly yelling but it was loud enough for some people to turn their heads and look at us. That black haired girl came and started calming her down. Really, that girl is like a walking miracle. She's quiet, polite, cute, and mature (unlike some people here). I guess her equivalent in our group would be Rei. Dell helps keeps us on track in school but if we ever have a fight with each other, it's Rei who comes and calms us down. I don't really know how he does it but he gets the job done.

Oh, look! Our sandwiches are here! It was two large platters of sandwiches cut diagonally with lots of different fillings. One for the guys and one for the girls. Len, Gumo, and Mikuo dug right in, Putting about 3-5 sandwich halves on their plates. From the corner of my eye I saw most of the girls do the exact same thing...

Wait a minute...

They're girls. Shouldn't they be 'daintily eating, picking off pieces to eat' and worrying about their weight or something? Ok, fine. That's a stereotype but all the girls we've dated acted like that. They would only eat low-fat foods or eat nothing at all, worried about gaining weight and getting fat. I have to admit, it was awesome because we didn't have to spend much money but really, these girls were just digging in!

I grabbed a few sandwich halves and started eating. It taste pretty good. My sandwich was filled with bacon, lettuce, and tomato, yum! I do wish they had some French breads though. I've become quite fond of them after we visited France.

My parents were usually out of town for business so it's just me at home. Sometimes the guys come over and keep me company so I don't get lonely. I just miss them. Whenever they get back, thy usually bring back souvenirs so our house if full of things from around the world. They want me to follow in their footsteps but I love music and gaming more than traveling. I wish they would understand that.

"Yo Ted! You gonna eat those?" I looked up and saw Mikuo grinning like a madman pointing to my sandwiches. I used my arm as a barrier between it and Mikuo. "Of course I am! Stop trying to take people's food Mikuo. It's not nice and you're being rude." I scolded him. That boy needs to man up and be a gentlemen. I mean, look at Rei. He's younger and he's politer than Mikuo.

He pouted. "Well hurry up then. Just seeming it makes me want to take it." He turned around and started talking to Piko about the new Super Mario game. I tuned them out. I preferred the company of books more than games but I do play every once in a while. Pretty fun.
"Thanks for the meal!" I looked over and saw the same three girls talking. Looks like they finished their food...

AND THEY ATE EVERY LAST CRUMB!

My glasses fell down a bit as I stared at their empty plate. Looking at ours I saw that theirs' was cleaner. How was that possible? "You said you're paying right?" I saw Rin go up to Dell with her arms crossed and a fierce look in her eyes. He cringed. "O-of course we are. Who would we be if we didn't?" He managed to smooth out his voice by the time he finished. Rin nodded her head. "Good. 'Cause I'm broke." She turned around and walked back over to the girls. We all stared after her.

"Quite blunt, isn't she?" We all turned and saw Teto standing next to me eating my sandwich and drinking my drink. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!" I jumped up and yelled at her, almost knocking down my chair in the process. She looked at me for a minute then went back to eating. "Well, you're not eating these, so I'll eat them for you. I don't believe in wasting food." I stared at her.

After she finished off my sandwich, she went back to her group bringing with my drink. She talked to them like nothing happened and lime stealing food from ohe people was a normal thing. I had to facepalm. Dealing with girls was hard enough but them? They're an entirely new species that I have to deal with. This time, I'm clueless how to do it.

"Are we ready to leave?" Dell asked everyone. We nodded. We walked around the mall a bit more since most of us had about another hour or two left until we had to be home. I found myself sitting at a bench waiting for the guys to come. We were all supposed to meat at the set of benches near the entrance on the first floor at 7:15, about half an hour since we hitchhiked with each other. I didn't mind being alone. At least I have a book to read.

I was too into my book to realize that someone had sneaked up behind me. "BOO!" Someone yelled in my ear. "ARG!" I jumped up and fell off the bench. Unfortunately, I hit the back of my head. "Oww..." I rubbed the back of my head. Suddenly, I heard someone laughing to my left. At first I thought it was Mikuo until they started laughing. It sounded... feminine. Either Mikuo somehow turned into a girl or it really was a girl. The laughing kept going though.

I opened my eyes and saw Teto on the floor next to me, eyes squeezed shut, holding her sides, laughing. We were so close I could feel her breath tickle my neck. I blushed at how close we were...

Wait...

What?

WHAT?!

I've never blushed before. Why am I blushing now? Luckily, her eyes were still closed so I got up and brushed off the dirt on my shirt. I stood up and looked down at her. She managed to calm down a bit but she was still laughing quietly. "What was that for?" I demanded, though at the same time helped her up from the floor. "I'm sorry but it was so tempting. You were reading your book at didn't look like the jerk from school." She flashed a grin. I stared at her.

This girl just told me I was a jerk with a smile. A really cute smile, but she called me a jerk! I never thought a girl would call me a jerk (besides those girls who I dated and dumped the day after).

"Well, I might as well buy some snacks while I'm here. My supply's running low. See ya!" I stared at her back as she ran towards the grocery store. Did she just say she was going to buy food?

Yo. Nero here. Right now I'm looking around the electronics store for a new cover for my iPhone. Mine was breaking. We've been together since middle school. My current cover was a solid yellow with a large, white 'N' on it. Now it was starting to fall apart. Great.

I took a step to the right and bumped into someone. "Oh, sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going." I looked down at the girl in front of me. It was one of the girls from the group. What was her name? Neru, I think. "It's fine. Just watch where you're going next time." She mumbled something else and started looking at the phone covers. "Soooo... You looking for a cover?" She looked at me questioningly then nodded. "Yeah. Are you?" I nodded. "Yeah. My cover's breaking. Had it since middle school. How long have you had yours?" "Middle school, too. Lemme see yours." I dug out my phone and handed it to her. It was strange. I've never trusted anyone with my phone before but it felt normal when I gave it to her.

She studied it with a blank face. I wonder if she shows any emotion besides anger and boredom. "You must really love this thing. It seems to be in good shape despite how old it is." She handed me back my phone and I put it away. "Yep, I love it as if it were my own kid!" I flashed one of my famous grins. She rolled her eyes and went back to looking.

"You're Neru, right?" I asked. I wanted to make sure I got her name right. "Yeah, Nero." She answered and I felt oddly happy. "Wanna look for phone covers together?" I asked hoping she would say yes. "Sure. At least I'm not alone."

We walked together throughout the aisle together, looking. I wonder why I feel so happy.

I shifted the weight of my basket from my right hand to my left hand. I was out getting groceries for next week since I live alone. "Hi Haku! What are you doing?" I turned around and saw Rui also holding a basket. "Hey Rui. Just getting some groceries for next week. What're you doing?" She smiled. "I'm getting some groceries for mom. Seems like we're running low. Dad also wants some ice cream. You know how he is." We both started laughing. When we stopped she looked at me hopefully. "You guys are giving the Princes a chance right? Please don't judge a person based on their looks or attitude, it isn't right." That's right. While at the sandwich shop Rui talked to all of us about giving the Princes a chance. Some of us didn't want to but if it's Rui then we'll try. Some of the girls didn't mind. The others did. I think the ones that don't want to the most are Rin, Neru, and Teto.

"Unless they change their attitude, the Princes aren't going to get a different opinion from us though." I told her, completely serious. "Maybe if we caught them off guard, like when they are truly themselves. Maybe they really are a different person on the inside." I smiled and ruffled her hair. "You really are a caring person Rui. Sometimes, I wish I could see people the way you can, not judging by looks or attitude, but by the person they are inside. It's a nice thing to have." She shook off my hand and looked at me. "I don't think I understand what you're saying, Haku." I smiled. "You'll see one day. Ok?" She smiled back. "Ok!" We went back to grocery shopping together, talking about random things together.

You know, I wonder what the rest of the girls are doing. I guess we'll find out once we meet up at 7:15 at the benches in front of the lobby. That was where we decided to meet back up.

A/N: I'm SO sorry for the wait. Q.Q FIRST: I LOVE FOOD. NEVER TRY TO SEPARATE ME FROM MY FOOD UNLESS YOU WANT TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL. Second: The Yamaha mall is based off the Jusco's around Okinawa and I thought it would make a good mall. I got the name 'Yamaha' from the Vocaloid Wikia and it said that a few vocaloids were affiliated with Yamaha so I just used that name. It just sounded right. Third: I was going to stop after Ted but then I wanted to add Nero and then after Nero I wanted to add Haku so yeah. Hope you guys liked it! I think I'll try to update every week now... Yeah, that's probably what I'll do now.

/cries/ I was in such a rush to update that when I reread this on my iPod, I realized that I made like a MILLION mistakes. Then I facewalled for about 5 minutes at how stupid I am.

Please Review!~
