Image Haru smiled her star lit smile that got the customers squealing with joy they did when they saw her. She wore her normal daily male uniform. The only one who knew she was a girl was Eros himself. She nor Eros has told about anyone about this situation. According to Haru, she felt it better to dress as a male, it gets her by.

By the time she got to the Cafe, Eros had enter-countered himself with a box of kittens. She was later herself, and noticed she wasn't the only one late. "Eros...sorry to..interrupt...but..." Her voice was low and mellow. She looked down. Never once did she make eye contact with Eros during their whole time of working together. In fact the only ones she did ever look in the eyes where the customers. If the customers were not around, Haru is nothing but a blank piece of paper.

Even though he was the only one to know of her secret, she still kept distant from everyone who worked here. She would do her job right, without any questioning to it.

She closed her eyes half way. "..Can I have a word with you..Sir?" She gripped the sides of her shirt tightly. But she kept her respectful tone.

She did take her time to bother with the animals, even though she enjoyed them. work came first to her and Eros was who she need to speak to and privately.

Eros turned his attention back to box of kittens. Eros was an understanding God. He wouldn't get angry with new employee. He peeked into the large window of the shop thinking of a place to hide the balls of fur. Keeping them in the kitchen would be an automatic visit from the health inspector. It would be too hot to keep the kittens in the employee locker room. He frowned a little as he listened to the male's excuse.

The frown on his face was broken to a small chuckle hearing the customer's attempt to rescue the male. "Well if you wish to stay for eight hours in our little shop, I won't stop you." He flashed his famous heart warming smile. "But I have to make a small request, would you mind staying at the corner of the shop just to hide the kittens? I wouldn't want other customers to be bothered them, nor do I want them to be bothered by you."

He smiled playfully at Blair. "For your punishment, you have to serve this young lady for the rest of the day. See to it that she get's comfortable. After all it will be a long wait." With that Eros moved closer to the entrance about to step foot into the office until he was stopped by a familiar voice. He turned over to pink haired girl and arched his brow. Normally he would ask if it could wait but by the body language of the girl it seemed urgent.

He nodded and smiled warmly. "Of course, Haru. Let's talk in my office." He opened the door gesturing for everyone to enter the cafe. "Let me just find someone to show Blair around." He followed everyone inside and scanned the now busy cafe.

"Shima!" The young God practically screamed his name from the entrance, merely smiling at those who looked over at him. "This is Blair, he's new so play nice and show him around. Alright?" He smiled at Shima playfully patting the male's head.

"Please make yourself comfortable miss." He smiled at the customer gesturing for her to take a seat in one of the booths. "Just call and someone will come take your order."

He bowed at the rest and turned his attention to Haru. "Let's go." He said warmly leading the pink haired maiden to the back of the cafe and into a small office. He walked over to his wooden desk and sat on the surface letting a great big yawn. "Have a seat." Said as he rubbed the corner of his eye, gesturing for her to sit on the nearby chair. Now that customers were no where in site, he dropped the serious "owner" act and went back being the sleepy and lazy God of love. "What's the matter?" He asked Haru once she sat down.

HARU


Haru sighed mentally. She closed her eyes and tried to sound out the commotion that everyone was making. Waiting for Eros to get done patiently, following behind him as he ordered around. Smiling gently at the customer, With a slow bow at the same time Eros did, she turned at the same time. "Yes Sir." She said in a low voice.

"Eros.." She didn't sit but stood, with her eyes down and her voice low. "...I been..kicked out.. I thought it was fair to at least let you know." Shifting her weight on her feet, she looked up at Eros and gave him a direct look into his eyes. "..I might have to..quit.." She looked down.

"Eros..before you say anything..I want to thank you for helping me up until this point. With keeping my secret and..giving me this job." Her face became soft and for a moment her girlish side showed. Haru went quiet and for a while all you could hear was the sound of the cafe running in the back ground.

Being kicked out due to payments, she couldn't keep up with them. Always to busy with her jobs to pay attention to when her rent was due, that and she is working so much to try and keep an apartment, but with prices rising and the cafe becoming busy. Things got tough for her.

Image Still, the food was waiting at the window and she took a quick moment to peer outside of her kitchen, which she literally always stayed in the whole day until she had her breaks, to find someone. She scanned the cafe for a little while, murmuring as she went back to her work, "Where could everyone have gone-"

But her out loud thinking was interrupted when a familiar voice came bursting through the cafe, " COMING SEIRI ! "

Seiri quickly finished up another dish, a plate of a small pancake, most likely going to a child since it was very small and only one, before getting a minute to look up at who the voice belonged to, though she already knew, and only found out that it was Lotus, who Seiri envied for looking her age, although you could say this made her like her even more, since she had a small smile on her face, despite how the girl was late, "You're late again?" She sighed, quickly trying to wipe away the forgiving and friendly look on her face, "Ah well... I guess I should have expected it. Well, go on! I've got more for you once you come back!" She said, trying to sound serious, despite that small smile appearing back onto her face as she got back to work.

" Sorry I'm late.... just not my morning." Seiri heard Lotus say as she picked up one of the plates.

"Is that so?" The matured looking girl asked, cutting up little chunks of celery while looking away to look at Lotus, "Did anything happen? I hate mornings too, but you know, if anything special happened or anything bad happened, just tell me, kay?" She said with a small smile before going on, "Oh, don't tell me you got a boyfriend or something. Ugh, how unfair!" She said dramatically, although it was a joke since there seemed to have been a small grin on her face as she turned back to her cutting, only to see her finger bleeding a minute later.

Now, keep in mind that Seiri's a perfectionist. So when her finger began to bleed, she wasn't concerned about any scars or the pain, but she was concerned it would contaminate the food. This made her grow pale, just the thought of it, 'Someone's blood in their food...' She shivered and quickly called back to Lotus.

"Lotus! I cut my finger! I need a bandaid! Quick! The blood is going to get into the soup!" She said, trying to work the kitchen, as a single chef, with one hand, which was done pretty well other than the fact that her finger began to drop onto the clean floor, "Ah! Its getting onto the floor!" Just then, the kitchen began to get a little noisy, despite only two people were there.

Just as Shima was going to space out into his own little world again, feeling like he was going to sleep again, or just pass out then and there again, probably going to lose his job also, someone called, " Morning Mr. Shoose "

Although she didn't shout it in his ear or something, this did make Shima snap out of his daze as he waved his hand up and said with a yawn, "Morning Miss Lotus..."

Even though she had called him by his last name, Shima didn't call hers in a polite way just to return the favor. Shima was a very polite young man, and still is, so he'll always go calling people by their last names, unless they're impossibly close like family, and speaking in a much lighter and civilized tone.

"Shima!"

Though, this voice did make Shima jump, nearly making him yelp just from how sudden and surprising it came to him out of no where. He didn't have to even look to realize who it was as he turned around, glancing for where the man was and doing a slight, yet anxious wave, especially since Eros could have seen him nearly sleeping on the job, "M-Morning... sir..."

Next to Eros was a blonde young man, and a purple haired woman, both who he hardly recognized, or perhaps that was just because his vision was horrible, unlike Seiri's, 'Who... are they...?' He wondered to himself before Eros decided to introduce the blonde one to him.

"This is Blair, he's new so play nice and show him around. Alright?" Eros said with a playful smile on his face.

Shima only responded the same, also grinning as he said, "Sure." He held out his hand for Blair to shake as he also introduced himself, finding that it was a logical thing to do, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Blair. The name's Shima, Shima Shoose. Honestly, I'm kind of new here also, so I'm not too reliable to find out everything, sorry!" He laughed a bit, rubbing the back of his neck before pointing in certain areas, "Well, as you can see, our cafe's not that big, but this is, obviously, our dining room for the costumers, then there's the cashier over there, and then the kitchen, and over there we have this huge fridge to store our food... oh, there's the bathrooms just across from there and the back exit just after that." He explained quickly, by accident though since he had a habit of speaking fast.

After taking another breath, Shima then said with his usual smile, "Any more questions and you can ask me! But... if I can't answer it... Well, I'm sorry, and then you may want to ask my sister since she's been working here longer, Seiri. She's the chef here, but anyways, what are you working as here? Are you a waiter?" He took his guess.

Eros C. Valnetino


With a flip of a switch the sleepy and lazy man was replaced with serious look of the "owner". This was a dilemma. He couldn't let this happen, not to an important employee. For Eros his employees are the most important people in his life and as their boss he believed that he had to take care of them and give them a hand any time they needed help. He wouldn't allow the female to stay on the streets not for a single hour. He had to find a way to help her. What ever it takes, Eros made a promise when he entered earth he would take care of every employee and protect them from the world.

He raised his finger at the girl not letting her finish her short speech. " I will not allow your resignation." He said keeping his eyes at the male uniform he had given her. "You're an important member of this cafe and I can not allow you to leave. You're one of the most popular waiters--you're the reason why some of the costumers come into this cafe. If you leave so will they and we can't let that happen now can we?"

He stood and made his way behind his desk. He sat on the black leather chair and leaned over the sooth surface of the mahogany table. He had to make a decision quick. The decision wouldn't just affect Haru but himself--for the next few months at least. It wasn't like it was going to be a permanent change--though the god wouldn't really mind if it was. He nodded to himself and shut his eyes. He was going to do it.

Leaning back in his chair a small smile crept on his face. "You know," he said with a smirk. "I've got an empty room in my house. I've been looking to rent it out. But I don't trust just anyone to live in my home. You know the place right? It's the big white house. Just a couple of blocks away from the shop. It's been quite lonely in there actually. But you know if a friend--perhaps who's looking for a place to stay--wanted to rent the room I wouldn't mind. I might even make the rent, food and other stuff free. I'll just have to make a slight deduction into their salary. But it's just a little so I could feed him...or her." He smirked looking over at the pink haired tomboy.

He rubbed his chin thoughtfully and sighed. "But who would want to keep a guy like me company?"

Haru sighed and shook his head. "No Sir...." Glancing he saw Eros get up, and just about to asking him what was going on. He took his turn again and spoke.

Becoming shocked Haru looked up at Eros as if he was crazy. "Really!?...Sir?" The excitement was in his voice and he held back a smile, but his eyes lit up. He gripped his tie to resist the urge to hug Eros. With a nod he answered in a soft and gentle voice. "I will be happy to, but I don't want to...burden you."

The sound of the cafe door opening letting in more customers rang through the place. Haru turned his head and looked over at the officer door, that separated them from the cafe. "I..should have told you..after work..forgive me..Seems we are busy today." Haru's mind was in alot of places, but he tried his best to only think of the cafe first. Right now he wasn't obviously he took to much of Eros time.

"Sir. We should get back. And it's fine, I...can find a place...I won't burden you..with this." Haru bowed and turned for the door. "Thank you though." He smiled and looked at Eros. "You're a very kind man."

A small pout appeared on the male's face. "It would be more of a benefit on my half actually." he said with a small smile. "It would give me a reason to stay home rather than go out and get drunk every night. And someone would wake me up and actually help me get to work on time." he smirked playfully at the girl. He wasn't taking no for an answer. But he wouldn't want to force the girl to do anything she was not comfortable with. He merely shrugged and smiled over at her.

"I'll give you until the end of this day." He said looking back at her with a serious look. "Think about it for a bit, and if you still think it's not a good a idea then just tell me. But I'll always have this offer open for you. I'll be sure not to rent that room out just yet." He said in a playful tone.

As much as he wanted to help his employee, he wouldn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. But as he promised he would always accept her if she ever requested for the room. Hopefully she will be fine for now. But again he hoped more that she would agree to move into the house. He wouldn't want her getting into anymore trouble.

"But remember, I can't allow you to quit." He said in an all too serious voice. "If you need any help at all just come back to me. Oh, and remeber you free rent." He said the last part jokingly as he stood up from his chair and smoothed down his sweater. He crossed the room and headed for the door. "Think about it, okay?" He said as he opened the door gesturing for her to exit first.

Once back into the cafe his stomach growled for attention reminding him that he hadn't eaten since his morning coffee. He wondered if he could charm Seiri into making him a fancy omelet or a piece of cake. He stretched his arms as he walked into the kitchen. "Smells good" he proclaimed as a kiss of heavenly aroma reached his nose. He leaned over one of the counters letting out a big yawn. "You mind making a special order?" He called to the kitchen staff.

Odie


Suddenly there was an immediate explosion of chatter and excitement around her, and she sort of just shrunk back against the wall, still not having entered the café as more and more people arrived and spoke interesting things. She simply hoped that she wasn’t in the way of any of these people, and therefore kind of shrunk in on herself. She really didn’t take heed of the golden haired girl who had tried apologizing, as she really didn’t mind it at all, other than the fact that Seiri might be a little disappointed she still didn’t have the things she needed.

As Eros arrived on the scene, she kind stepped to the side and held the bags closer to her chest, and as he poked fun at the new guy here at the café, she couldn’t help a small smile coming onto her face. But it really wasn’t her place to be here anyhow, and Odie really should have been in the kitchens five minutes ago, and yet another person, one she actually recognized, sort of merged into the group.

Haru was a nice guy, but really reserved around everyone who worked at the café. It was sort of weird really, considering she didn’t necessarily work there, and yet the boy still avoided all gazes with that reserved look of his. Otter’s curiosity peaked when he asked Eros to speak privately, but she quickly scolded herself for wondering about other people’s personal business.

With the hubbub around her, Odie apparently got lost in the scene, as all attention was focused on Eros, but everyone was still positioned at a point where she thought it to be rude to try to interrupt and push past them. So there she remained, waiting patiently for all of this to dispel, when suddenly Eros decided to call Shima over to assist Blaire around the restaurant, thus making Otter come to a quick decision to make a break for it as swiftly as possible.

Ducking her head, she sort of wormed her way around the masses, making soft apologies for miniscule bumps, but otherwise made it through without any real issues. As she skirted to the left and through the kitchen doors, she came upon the scene of a slightly panicking Seiri and blood dripping onto the floor. A look of horror filled Odie’s features, and she quickly- though carefully- placed the bags on a nearby counter before appearing at her side to assist. She highly doubted that the kitchen held medical supplies, which was a little ironic considering that was where all the sharp, pointy, and dangerous things were located, but went to grab a clean cloth to stem the small blood flow.

“Ah, Seiri, you’re hurt, hold still for just a second…. Do you need any help with stirring or anything? Would you rather me do that instead?” It was a little hard to discern whether she should be focusing more on Seiri or on her food- mainly because the woman always seemed to have a greater concern for the latter, and Odie didn’t want to make her more stressed by asking her to stop working.

HARU

"Ok I'll think on it" He said to Ero just before walking out and going to the cafe. He took a deep breath and smiled to himself shaking his head. What an odd guy he thought and chuckled. Haru stood there a moment to take view of what was going on in the cafe.

The moment Haru saw his normal customers walk in he smiled and walked up to the lady. "Good morning Miss. It is lovely to see you again." He offered her a seat at one of the tables.

"Oh Haru!" She blushed and smiled at him. "You always have a way with words, don't you dear?" She took his offer and pulled off her hat smiling.

Haru helped her with her seat and took her order. But before he left he kissed her hand and walked off to the back, placing the order to the chef. "Order of Pancakes. Just plain flavored." He left the order on the clip and walked off.

If anything Haru just wasn't up for work today, he didn't have the stamina for it. But after hearing Eros words, how could he as for the day off. Rubbing the pain in his head, he leaned against the wall. hoping that would stop the dizziness he got. Guess they were right when they said. Too much on the mind can kill you. He thought staring at the floor for awhile.

His phone started to buzz in his pocket. When he saw who it was he composed a frown from coming. And walked over to the from of the cafe and out the doors. With a walk out to the side of the cafe, away from the windows. Haru leaned up against the wall and finally answered his phone.

"Yes?" Haru asked in a strained voice.

Haru, I am going to need you out by tonight, sorry, but the new movers are eager to get going here. A mans voice spoke on the other side of his phone.

"....ok.." Haru made his reply short and simple and hung up his phone. By tonight...that's to soon.. He bit his lip feeling the irritation overwhelm him.

HARU


Haru collected himself and barged right into the cafe. Ignoring everyone while looking around for Eros. He needed him now. He marched right into Eros's office hoping he would be there but there was no luck in finding him. There was no luck in the cafe either and everyone had became busy with things to do. This was a bad time, the worse time for all this to happen and it just had to happen now.

A light clicked in Haru's head and the only place he hadn't checked was the kitchen. Maybe he is in there talking to the chef or trying to get out of work.he thought and turned quickly into the kitchen. With a loud bang of the door, Haru's eyes immediately stopped on a sleeping Eros. Haru bit his lip as anger rushed over him. I have the worse timing ever! yelling at himself mentally.

Which is true he did very much. Everything he did was late or bad, the only thing he could do right was his job and that even shocked himself most of the time.

Irritation got the best of him. "Eros!" Haru barged in and rushed up to Eros shaking his arm. "Please wake up! I need to talk to you! Now! Sir!" Haru shook him hard. And sighed. "Please get up...or I'll kiss you..." Haru whispered the 'I'll kiss you' part into his ear so no one can hear. It was the only thing that always got him up right away. So it did most of the time.

Eros C. Valentino


The male slumbered on the cold metal counter. He was struggling to cross over the bridge of continuousness and sleep. But alas, he was stuch in the middle. He heard the silent muffles of the two girl's voices.He was sure that they were talking about his sleeping habbit. But they both should get use to it. It's not a surprise to find the male sleeping in odd positions. He had a motto that he picked up from the internet. "If I fits, I sits!" And boy does he live up to that motto.

Because he was half asleep, the lightest sounds would drag him farther away from his dream land. A loud crash came from the entrance of the kitchen. It meant he wasn't going to be allowed to get some sleep. "mmmm." He groaned in annoyance as he herd his name from a distance. "Just a little longer." he begged who ever disturbed his sleep. His body shook violently because of the person. Thanks to the wake up call it was clear he wasn't going to get his cat nap.Despite being wide awake now, he still kept his head buried into his arms, refusing to accept the fact that he was awake.

A sly smirked hearing his punishment from the familiar voice. He peeked slightly looking up at Haru mischievously before hiding his face once again. Then maybe I should just stay asleep." He chuckled lowly as he sat up. The smirk never left his face despite the urgency of the femal's voice. "I'm only joking, Let's go back to my office, yeah?" He smiled again and stood up giving a big stretch.

He turned over to the two cooks. "Looks like my meal would have to wait." He gave a small sigh. "Keep up the good work ladies. Remember, Seiri, putting your blood sweat and tears into your work is just a metaphore, don't do it literally." He said jokingly to the chef before leading Haru back into his office.

He walked back to his desk and sat on top of the wooden surface. Again, he gestured for the female to sit just as before. "Did you think about my proposal?" He said with smile.

Haru scoffed at him he looked away from Eros's smirk and bit his lip. He payed no attention to the girls in the room, not like he payed attention to anyone. He found it easiest not to. Less friends made it simple and easy to leave whenever he needed too. He heard that Eros had a meal coming but before he could object Eros had already lead him out of the room and into his office.

"Sir." She glared looking at the chair. "I am being kicked out sooner than I thought." Her hand gripped her phone tightly almost cracking it in her fist. "..I got a call just a while ago." He took a deep breath and slowly looked up at Eros. "If I was to be the one to move in...I don't want anything free. I will work for my way." Haru's eyes tightened and he bit his lip again.

There was more for him to say but he couldn't find the right words to speak. He started to feel a knot in his throat that build up and turned. His eyes went soft and he smiled gently, only half way though. His next words came out soft and low, making him sound like the girl he truly is. "Sorry for such a hassle. I know you are tired and very busy, but thank you..Sir..You should eat. ..I'll take your offer though..and move out soon..." With a turn of her head, his body became less stiff and she went calm.

Eros C. Valentino


Eros folded his arms over his chest as he waited for the female to finish. He frowned slightly and shook his head. How cruel the human world was. He didn't know the full story of why Haru was being kicked out. Perhaps she was not able to pay her rent, or perhaps she misbehaved. But no matter what the reason was, no one should put her or anyone under any pressure. He wondered for a moment how a human could have such a cold heart. But before he could think of a conclusion he brought his attention back to the pink haired tomboy.

A warm gentle smile grew on his face. "It's no burden, really." He explained as he stood up right. And walked over to her, he placed his hand over her head and gently ruffled her short hair. He wanted to comfort her and tried to lighten the mood. "Like I said before, it would help me too. But if you really want to pay for the rent you could do it in another way." He chuckled sitting back down on the table smirking at her playfully.

"You could cook for us instead and be my alarm clock." He joked with the tomboy. He really didn't mind if she didn't pay the rent. It may not be obvious but money was not a problem for the male. He had his own ways of making money the cafe was just one of them. "I just want you to focus on your job here."

He then turned his attention to the clock hanging on the northern wall of his office. They both could escape from the cafe just for a little bit. If they both left now, they could go to Haru's apartment, pack her things then drive to his house. But then again the cafe seemed to be a little busy, they could wait 'til working hours were over. "When do you have to move out?" He asked in a serious tone looking over at the tomboy. "If you want, we could escape and I could help you move out." He smiled peeking at his door, it was left slightly open and gave him enough space to peek at the cafe. "or we could go after work. It's up to you."

"But the sooner the better, right?" He smiled over at Haru.

Cooking? Haru thought to himself. He cooked a lot, but never once has he cooked for someone else. Being his alarm clock was no problem though, she did it all the time with him at work. But to be in a mans house and then his room, made her a bit nervous, now that she thought about it.

"Huh?" He was pulled out of thinking and looked over to Eros. "Oh um, by tonight..Sir." He watched at he leaned over peeking out his door, he hadn't noticed it was left open. "Aren't you just looking for an excuse to escape the cafe?" Lifting his hands up to his hair he fixed it a bit. "Everything is already packed. I just need a way of transferring it. I don't have anything but clothes, a dresser and a bed." Mumbling his words he turned to face Eros. With moving around alot he found it better not to have alot of things anymore. Never found the time to settled down. "If you want to leave, it is up to you sir, you are the boss after all, but I do have one thing I am wondering. Isn't this suppose to be a love cafe? I don't see much love going on, it just seems like a cafe to me now." Haru opened the door and looked out at ever, but he spoke in a low voice only for Eros to hear. "None of them seem professional to me."

Eros C. Valentino


Eros burst out into laughter hearing Haru's response. "You caught me," He smirked raising his hands up as if surrendering. Haru was partly right. He did want to get out of work early. The male would take any chance he had so he could find a way to get out of work. It wasn't that he hated being at the cafe, in fact he loved the shop and the residents inside it. But he preferred sleeping in a comfortable couch rather than walking around the shop and watching over every body.

"Well if all we need to do is pick up your things, we could do that after work." He said with a shrug. Today seemed to be too busy to leave. He still had a lot of things to do. He had to check how the front of the cafe was doing, then check up on the kitchen to see if orders were going perfectly, then he had to check up on his new recruit and then the kittens--he wanted to find a way to get his hands on one of them, then finally nap on one of the couches--which he might accomplish first. "After work, I'll drive you to your apartment then we can load all your stuff. Sounds good?" He smiled at the pink haired girl.

The smile on his face vanished when she asked her question. He forgot the whole reason why this cafe was built. He had to do his job, his real job. He leaned to his side, peeking again at the gap at his door. "It looks like Cupid's arrow hasn't struck anyone." He said with a frown and a big sigh. If it were up to him, he would just find two couple and shoot his arrow. But humans needed free will, they had fall by themselves. His job was to try to pair them up. One god couldn't possibly do it by himself. with a big sigh he stood and walked to the door. "We'll see if Cupid would do his charm today." He looked back smirking at Haru.

"I'll see you after work, okay?" With that he walked out of his office, leaving Haru by herself. Once out of the office his eyes targeted the empty couch at the front of the cafe. No one would mind right? Though there were a lot of people, everything seemed to be under control. It wouldn't hurt if the God of Love took a nap. He'd do the rest of his work later when he woke up. He let out a yawn as he walked in front of the shop and plopping himself onto the sofa. He laid himself across the love seat using the low arm rest as a pillow.

"They'll know where to find me..." He yawned as he rested his fore arm over his eyes, shielding them from the sunlight. His stomach growled once again calling for attention. "Shhh..." He hushed his tummy rubbing it with his free hand. His position was too good to get up, food would have to wait...again. It wasn't long before Eros had fallen asleep.

"Ok Sir." He watched as Eros walked off and thought about what Eros said and shook his head. Cupid is dead. At this point even though the cafe was busy, there was nothing for him to do, nothing he wanted to do at least.

Cracking his knuckles he walked back into the kitchen and walked over to the fridge. "I will be using the kitchen, don't worry though, I wont be in the way." He mumbled to the chief as he looked for items in the fridge. Pulling out some meat along with lattice and tomato, he place them on a single counter out of the chiefs way. He walked over to the extra apron that hung on the hangers and slipped it on. As he thought he stared at the food while tying the back into a perfect bow. Concentrating he grabbed the hamburger buns placing it down. He turned sharply and worked his way around the kitchen, keeping his way out of the chiefs way at the same time of frying the chicken in the oil. He flipped the seasonings like a bartender, adding it to the meat with a dash of wine. When he was done he flipped it off the pan and it flew across the room, landing right onto the piece of one of the open bread buns. He washed the pan and put it back in the same spot as if he never used it at all. drying his hands off he walked back to the hamburger, adding the a piece of lettuce and chopping up the tomato nicely, putting the rest into a package to keep it fresh. When he was done he added a fancy toothpick to his completion. And wiped the spill spots up off the plate. He made sure it looked like a master pace before putting everything away and taking the plate with him along with the sandwich. "Sorry about that." He said to the chief and bowed his head taking the mayo with him just before stepping out of the kitchen.

Haru walked over to the sleeping Eros, lifting his foot he tapped it against Eros. "Get up lazy, I got a meal for you. Chicken sandwich. This is what you asked for right, for me to make you meals. Get up or I will throw it away." His eyes shifted to the side looking at the cafe wondering if he caused a seen, but with a turned of the body she place the plate down and shook Eros. "I guess my meals aren't good enough to wake you, huh?"

Image “No problem! Always happy to stop by, whenever possible, at all hours, away from my other stops, any time….”

Seiri was glad that Odera didn't mind coming by and working when she could. After all, it was nice to have some company in the kitchen since she was the only one in there that worked for hours nonstop. Company was the best gift she could get during her work days.

“Maybe, if you’re my mentor I guess. But yeah! I’d love to help if you’d have me. It might be easier than running about all day.”

"I can imagine it'd be! And of course~ But one day you'll be the one that'll be cooking alone, so keep everything I say in mind! Oh, but call on me if you need any help though." Seiri said, finishing up decorating a small piece of cake that was going out to a costumer.

After the mentioning of her 'idiot' brother, she saw a slight blush on Odera's face, wondering what that meant, but she didn't say anything and just went on about talking about the different places he slept in, like his school, on his engineering job, and other odd places you wouldn't expect a regular person to sleep in.

“So, what should I do?” She heard Odera ask.

"Well..." Seiri began to look through her orders for a quick moment. She didn't want to give Odera anything hard to make, so instead, she just pointed to a few orders that looked quite similar, "Decoration?" She asked, and quickly headed over to a little tray of what appeared to be different sizes of cakes and cupcakes and put it near Odera, "If it's alright with you, mind decorating them? The type doesn't matter, as long as it appeals to you, because then it'll probably appeal to the costumers also~" She said happily.

She then turned back to her work and finally finished Eros's food. She was about to hand it over to the owner, but then noticed that Haru had borrowed the kitchen for a minute and already made him something. A small smile appeared on Seiri's face just then as she went back to the kitchen silently and decided she'd eat it for lunch, or maybe give it to Odera if she had nothing to eat for the day.

"You should come over today." Seiri offered to Odera with a smile, "Maybe come over for dinner or something. It's nice to have people come by every now and then, if you'd like." She said, not minding if she didn't accept since they were all busy in their own ways.

“If it isn’t the man of dreams himself!”

"M-Man of dreams?" Shima laughed, not understanding the term too well, despite how obvious it really was. Still, the term did make him laugh, and you could say that that was what mattered.

“And you as well, of course, though you see me practically every day it seems like it’s been eons and eons since I last saw that beautiful snowy-forest head of yours.”

"You know me." He shrugged with a little chuckle, "Sleeping everywhere, anytime, its easy to forget how long it's been since you last saw someone. And I suppose it has, same for you, with you and your blazing red hair and all." Shima smirked a bit. Despite how odd his hair really was, he actually, somehow, found Dae's hair color odder than his.

“And this is… Well actually I don’t know. What do you say, mysterious stranger? Give us a name, or is it naught for light-hearted ears to hear?” Dae began to attempt to introduce the man next to him, but before that was possible, Shima smiled and introduced himself instead.

"Shima Shoose, nice to meet you, sir." He said, much more polite than the casual way he talked to Dae and his other friends.

A moment later, still waiting for a reply from the dark haired man, Shima turned back to Dae and asked, "Hey, you want any food? Had lunch yet?" He asked, partially since he always wanted to make sure his friends were content and what such, but second was because he, too, was hungry, since anyone could hear his stomach grumble, causing his face to turn a little pink here and there from the embarrassment.

Eros C. Valentino


The God of Love continued to slumber peacefully at the front of the shop. Little by little he felt himself slipping into dream land, but the mumbles and sounds of the shop kept him from slipping away completely. He groaned in annoyance hearing his name from the sea of muffled voices. "Five more minutes..." he pleaded to the who ever wanted him awake. Oh how cruel this world was. Is it so bad for the male to just want to sleep and procrastinate his work? Probably...

By the time he recognized the voice he was now fully awake. He opened one eye peering up at Haru, his attention turned to the sandwich in her hands. His stomach replied for him making another loud growl. "Don't waste food." He groaned as he pulled himself up from his laying position making him sit upright. He smirked at the pink haired girl and stretched his arm out asking for the plate. "You really didn't have to cook, I could have gotten something from Seiri. But It would be such a waste if you threw that out."

He chuckled as he got up and taking the plate from Haru before she could reply. He sat back on the love seat leaving some room for the female to sit with him. He took a bite from the sandwich and smiled. "Not bad," he smirked at her taking another bite. "I might have to fire you from being a waiter and rehire you as a chef." He chuckled at the female.

As he continued to eat he scanned over his cafe. It seems that Haru was right. There doesn't seem much love happening in the building. He watched some of the customers as they went on with their day. He brought his attention to three men two of them he quickly recognized as Shima and his good friend Dea. And another gentle man that seemed to be hating every living soul in this building. He watched as he called on another waiter who brought him a drink. He snarled a little as he watched from a distant. "We're not suppose to be serving alcohol at his time." He gave out a sigh as he continued to watch silently.

Haru's words rung in his head. "I don't see much love going on, it seems more like a cafe to me now." He frowned as he took another bite. Honestly this cafe was the only idea the god had to help the human race find love. But it seemed like it was backfiring, less and less couples seemed to be getting together and more of them seemed to split up. Some would even break up right out side of his lovely cafe. Love is complicated game, so complicated even Eros himself had difficulties playing it.

He looked over at the person sipping his drink. His fingers formed the shape of gun and he pointed them at the male. In his mind it was the arrow he used in the olden days. "Pew" He said quietly to himself pretending to pull the imaginary trigger and hoping it would hit the drinking male. But alas he knew that wouldn't work it wasn't like before where he could just shoot an arrow. He sighed and took another bite of the sandwich. "It's not as easy as it use to be..."

HARU

"No Eros, I wont enjoy that, I'd be to bored." Haru stared at the people walking around and sat next to Eros as he looked around the cafe eating away. "Yes, sir, I did say that." He replied and looked over at him.

Watching as he formed a gun out of his fingers and made a little Pew, Haru pressed his lips together to stop himself from breaking a smile or a laugh. "Love is never easy." Haru would know it best, his relationships would never last long. It was either because they cheated or just got bored of him. So he found it easier to just work at the cafe dating free.

"Well sir you could always try, something new. Like a Fake Love potion or maybe a real one. Anything to make them think that it is love." Haru yawned and shrugged a bit, rubbing the side of his face, his eyes slowly started to close. He didn't get much sleep last night either, but unlike Eros Haru had better control of himself. He didn't fall asleep, just sat there with his eyes shut. "Maybe we could do an event and get things back to were it should be, or maybe change the place up a bit to something more romantic."
