>Chapter 2: Magical Pastry
>In the burning fires of hell, our heroine Creme Brule has met with a dangerous foe... her own companion, Tiramisu!
Creme Brule "You're my best friend, Tiramisu! Please, stop this!"
Tiramisu "There's nothing you can do to stop me, Creme... Accept your fate! Huhuhu-HAHAHAHA!!!"
>SWISH!
>CLANG!
Announcer "Who will win in this epic battle of the heart!? Find out next episode!"
Natsuki "Gyaaaahhhhh!!! No way! No waaaay!! I don't wanna waaaaiiiittt!!"
Masato "I can't believe you made me sit through a whole episode of Magical Pastry..."
Haruna "I can't believe we have to wait a whole week to see the conclusion..."
Masato "Not you too!!"
>It was Saturday. Natsuki, Haruna and Masato gathered at Natsuki's house for a study session.
>...and to watch Magical Pastry, of course. Natsuki & Haruna's favorite show.
Natsuki "I loved it! The suspense is so wonderful!"
Haruna "Mmh! I agree!"
Masato "Okay, enough you two. The tv is going off and we're studying. Natsuki needs to catch up."
Natsuki "I'll be fine! I'm smart!"
Masato "What's the square root of 134?"
Natsuki "......"
Haruna "11.5758369028."
Natsuki "Yeah! That!"
Masato "We're studying until lunch."
Natsuki "Oh..."
>A few hours later...
Natsuki "We've finished!! I don't think my brain can hold anymore!"
Masato "See, now was that so hard? We got all our homework caught up."
Natsuki "Now we can go out for lunch, right?"
Haruna "I wouldn't mind that either..."
Masato "Okay. Let's take her to the cafe, then."
Natsuki "Yay!!"
>At a cafe in the middle of the city.
Akihiko "Look who it is! My three favorite girls!"
Masato "Oh... it's you..."
Akihiko "Hey now! Don't be so mean!"
Natsuki "What are you up to, Akihiko?"
Akihiko "Natsuki! I'm just out getting a bite to eat, same as you!"
Natsuki "Would you like to--"
Masato "Natsuki! No!"
Haruna "Natsuki!"
Natsuki "- have lunch with us?"
Masato "Dammit..."
Haruna "We were too late..."
Akihiko "Yeeesss! I would love to!"
Natsuki "Yay! Isn't that great guys?"
Natsuki "Guys?"
Masato "Bleh..."
>Pi pi pi pi pi!
Haruna "Hm?"
Haruna "My phone..."
>Haruna stepped to the side to answer her phone.
Masato "*whispering* Why'd you invite Narumi? He's so annoying!"
Natsuki "I'm sorry!!"
>Haruna hung up her phone and returned.
Haruna "I'm sorry about this, but I must return home. I'll join you for lunch some other time."
>As if on cue, a long, fancy limousine pulled up to the cafe. Haruna stepped up to it.
Haruna "I'll see you in school."
Masato "Later, Haruna."
Natsuki "Bye-bye!"
>Haruna left.
Natsuki "I'd still rather not eat lunch with THAT GUY. I think I might head home."
Natsuki "Oh... are you sure?"
Masato "Yep. I'll see you at school."
>Natsuki waved as she left.
Natsuki "I'm sorry about that."
Akihiko "Don't sweat it. Macchin doesn't like me very much."
Natsuki "Still..."
Natsuki "I suppose we could just have lunch together. Do you mind?"
Akihiko "Not at all! Let's go!"
Natsuki (YAAAAY! What luck!!!)
Natsuki "Akihiko? Why are you jumping like that?"
Akihiko "Uh- oops. L-let's just go in!"
>Akihiko & Natsuki bought lunch, and decided to sit by the river to eat.
Natsuki "Thanks for joining me."
Akihiko "Are you kidding? It's my pleasure."
Natsuki "We haven't really gotten a chance to talk since I got here. So, I'm glad you agreed to it."
Akihiko "Now you're just trying to flatter me."
Natsuki "Hehe, is it working?"
Akihiko "So, then let's talk. Have any hobbies?"
Natsuki "Well, actually I wanted to ask... why don't you and Masato get along?"
Natsuki "You both are such nice people!"
Akihiko "Heh, well, I used to mess with her a lot when we were kids."
Natsuki "That's not very different from now, Akihiko..."
Akihiko "Ah hah... I guess not..."
Akihiko "Enough about that! I want to know about you, Natsuki!"
Natsuki "Ah, well... I guess besides anime, I like video games."
Akihiko "A girl who likes video games, huh? Maybe I should invite you over. I have a lot."
Natsuki "You aren't trying to do anything naughty, are you, Akihiko?"
Akihiko "Wh-what? No, not at all!"
Natsuki "Just kidding!"
Akihiko "Heh, you're pretty bold."
Natsuki "That's what people tell me."
>Natsuki & Akihiko spent a long time talking about things as they ate lunch, before deciding to walk around the city.
*loud murmuring*
Natsuki "Is something going on over there?"
Akihiko "It looks like someone famous is at the convenience store."
? ? ? "I knew it was a bad idea to go out just the two of us..."
? ? ? "Sorry, Mitsu, I wanted to see if this place had the soda I liked."
Mitsu "How are we going to get out of this crowd?"
Natsuki "I-IT'S THEM!!! IT'S REALLY THEM!!!"
Akihiko "Uhh... who?"
Natsuki "Creme and Tiramisu from Magical Pastry!!! Look! Look! Live and in person!!!"
Akihiko "They look more like they're stuck..."
Natsuki "They do!"
Natsuki "We should go help them!!!
Akihiko "I guess it's my duty as a man..."
>The two plow through the crowd of people to rescue the two actresses.
Mitsu "Th-that was close!"
? ? ? "Wow!! You guys shoved through that crowd like it was nothing!!"
Natsuki (Oh my gosh, it's really them... I'm so nervous!)
Akihiko "We're glad you guys are alright! That looked like a mess. I'm Akihiko and this is Natsuki. She's a big fan."
? ? ? Wow! Thank you! It's a pleasure to meet a fan!
Natsuki I-It's nice to meet you in person!
Airi "I'm Airi and this is Mitsu.... Mitsu?"
Akihiko "Are you okay?"
Mitsu ". . ."
Mitsu (H-H-Hottie!!)
Airi "What a weirdo. We should get going."
Natsuki "R-Right... you're probably busy..."
Mitsu "O-oh, we should! We should!"
Mitsu "Thank you very much Akihiko-sama~"
Akihiko "U-uhh... You're welcome? Hope you guys get back safe..."
>Mitsu & Airi left in a hurry. Natsuki & Akihiko stood there stunned.
Natsuki ". . ."
Akihiko "H-Hey! What's wrong?"
Natsuki "I didn't get an autograph..."
Akihiko "...really?"
Mitsu "He was so cute... I think I'll go see him again... I wonder what school that uniform was from."
Airi "Mitsu, you're acting funny."
>...
>Later On.
Natsuki "Thanks for walking me all the way back home, Akihiko. That was sweet of you."
Akihiko "No problem! It's not often that I get to walk a cute girl home."
Natsuki "C-Cute?"
Natsuki "You're silly, Akihiko."
Natsuki "Well, I'll see you later."
Akihiko "Yeah... see ya..."
Akihiko "Man... for being such a cutie, she sure is dense..."
