A/N: I'd like to start by apologizing for the hiatus that I have been on. It was a tough choice but I chose to put this aside for a while to make sure I could handle my upcoming responsibilities so again, I'm sorry! (I'll explain more at the bottom) I hope I can make it up with the new stories I will be uploading soon. Be warned, they are not for Sword Art Online. I've gone so deep into Idol Hell (Love Live!) that I've started to write fanfiction for it.

After the shopping ended, Keiko went home while Rika went to the Dicey cafe. When she walked in the nearly empty cafe, she was greeted by its owner and one of its usual patrons Ryoutarou, better known as Klein. (I'm still going to call him Klein.)

"Liz, what brings you by?" the owner asked, a smile on face.

"I was about to go home when I thought I'd stop by for something to drink! I need some coffee after shopping for so long." Rika said as she plopped down next to Klein.

"Must be nice to be able to go out…" Klein said before chugging the rest of his drink.

"Are you still working?" Andrew asked as he poured the red head a new drink.

"Yeah… I thought that it would be a piece of cake since there's not a lot of people working but apparently that means that more work gets dumped on you." he said, laying his head on the counter. Rika reached over and patted his head.

"Why are you working? I thought you got on your vacation a few days ago."

"I was! But then I thought that it would be a good idea to get some extra money since I might need to buy some extra gifts for family back home…" Klein said, chugging the rest of his drink when he raised his head. Andrew brought up the bottle to refill Klein's glass, Rika seeing how it was a bottle of pop rather than alcohol like she initially thought.

"Do you want see something that will make you feel better?" Rika asked, a mischievous look showing in her eyes. Klein, who didn't even bother to look on her, nodded while Andrew shook his head and sighed at the two.

"Okay! Close your eyes!" She said, Klein complying and dropping his head on the table with the thump.

Didn't mean like that but oh well! Rika thought as she turned to look at Andrew, his senses telling him to run away but he owned the place. She motioned to him to lean forward, Andrew sighing as he did, feeling something soft and fluffy being placed on his head. He reached up and felt a triangle on his head, making him raise an eyebrow at the girl, who only responded with a grin.

"Raise your head!" Rika said, patting Klein on the back as she said that. Klein looked up and almost dropped his drink, having to place it on the table before laughing. Andrew, curious as to what was making him laugh, reached up and took off what Rika place on his head. What he saw made him crack up as soon as he recognized it.

"Why are you even carrying these?" Andrew said, referring to the cat ears that were in his hand.

"I found them at the mall! I thought that they would be a good buy. And uh, don't tell Silica that I bought them. She'll kill me if she finds out I did."

"W-Why would she?" Klein said after he finally stopped laughing.

"I may or may not have been making a lot of bad cat puns." She said, drinking a bit of the drink just placed before her.

"Knowing you, those must have been some pretty bad puns to get her to want to kill you."

"They weren't that bad! I thought that that they were good…" Rika muttered, oblivious to the fact that Klein had now put the cat ears on himself until she was about to take a sip from her drink.

"How do I look?"

"Purr-fect." She responded, automatically cracking up. Andrew automatically knew why Keiko had felt the way that she did since the puns were really bad.

"Liz why?"

"Why? Because you look nyamazing!" She said, automatically, practically falling out of her chair. Klein put his head back on the table, his shoulder shaking slightly. Andrew had a hard time figuring out which of the two was laughing or crying from the pun. That is to say, until he heard Klein repeat 'nyamazing' with a wheeze of a laugh following after.

Why am I not surprised that he finds that funny!? He thought as he began to clean the glasses, leaving the to customers to laugh away in their seats.

A/N: Explanation time! So I'm graduating high school this year and what does that mean? College applications! I had all of my time invested in writing essays and putting the finishing touches on my essays (sometimes up to 2 am writing) and because of this, I was really conflicted on whether I should try to do both but I knew I couldn't add to my workload. I'm really sorry that it has taken me so long to put an update or story but I just turned in my applications yesterday so I hope I can get back on track!

P.S- Happy Birthday to the reviewer who's birthday it was.

P.S.S- Not sorry about cat puns.

P.S.S- Sorry it's short. I promise it will be longer next time!
