Lettuce sat awake in her bed. She was wondering what would happen if she were to loose her Mew Mew powers and form. What would happen? She would be a normal girl once more when she just got used to being a Mew. And what would happen to the friendship, memory, and the aliens?

The questions kept on rolling in her head until the next morning. She was still wide-awake and now ready for work at the café. Soon she rose from her covers, braided her hair again, and walked out the door to the café. Ichigo blinked twice as soon as Lettuce walked in. She was five minutes late for work.

Ryou sighed and walked over to Lettuce. Her cheeks flushed with a rosy pink when Ryou layed his hand on her shoulder.

"Lettuce, please don't be late tomorrow. We might have needed you earlier." He said wrapping his arm around her tighter. He cheeks soon turned bright red. Ryou smiled and softly whispered something into her ear. The other girls tried to listen, but heard nothing.

"I won't be late next time…honestly. I'll try to be a bit earlier tomorrow." Lettuce smiled and a sparkle grew in her eyes. Ryou nodded, smiled, and walked into the other room.

Ichigo blinked in wonder. What did Ryou say to her? And why did Lettuce want to be early? She never wanted to be early. Lettuce walked over to Ichigo with the smile still curved around her face. The sparkle in her eyes kept on growing until Pudding said something.

"So Lettuce! What did Ryou-san say to you?" Pudding giggled and soon she wore the smile that was once on Lettuce's lips. She was now frowning and trying to get around telling her.

"Well…erm…nothing really. It was nothing at all. He just talked about how nice it would be to have someone come earlier." She replied regaining her smile. Zakuro laughed a bit.

"I know that's not what he said. C'mon tell us!" Zakuro said with a chuckle. She knew what was going on. Lettuce liked Ryou and maybe…just maybe he liked her too. Lettuce stared at all of the listening ears. She frowned again.

"Well let's just say…He's my little secret crush." She whispered to each of them. Soon a grin appeared on all of their faces (except for Lettuce). They had something going through their heads and Lettuce knew it! She just had to figure what was going through their heads. What was it!?

"Oh so you like him?" Ichigo asked. Lettuce nodded with an unsure look. She didn't know if she should have told them in the first place. "Great!" Ichigo yelled. "Well Lettuce how would you like it if you did date him!?" She added.

"Um…I would like that, but no way! I have to find someone else." She replied. Ichigo frowned slightly.

"But you have to…like him…if he likes you." She responded. Lettuce shook her head about one thousand times before finally getting up and walking out. Zakuro was going to go after her but something stopped her. In the glance of her eye she seen Ryou standing there watching. He couldn't have heard them though…He was too far away.

"Did you hear anything?" Zakuro asked anyways. She wasn't really sure if he heard…After all he did have some ways with technology. Keiichiro walked in and gave a welcoming smile.

"I'm sure Mr. Blonde over there…didn't hear a thing. Masha isn't around to tell him anyways." He said still smiling politely.
