ph33r my rod: Malik, now that the world was free of
shadows, headed into Creamylicious~.
Omega19x: Ryou was standing behind the counter,
putting a few black cherry puffs in a bag for a customer.
He waved to Malik.
ph33r my rod: Malik smiled and waved to Ryou, waiting
until the customer got their puffs and left before he walked
up to the counter. "Hey~"
Omega19x: "Isn't it wonderful that things are back to
normal?"
Omega19x: Ryou took a long breath, and smelled the
fresh puffs in the oven. Yes... this was paradise!
ph33r my rod: "I think 'wonderful' is an understatement."
Malik leaned up against the counter. "Thought I'd celebrate
and come check out the sale you've got going on~"
Omega19x: "It's a buy one puff get one puff free sale!"
Ryou smiled. "Buy any puff, and get another puff on the
house!"
ph33r my rod: "Sounds like a sweet deal."
ph33r my rod: (( *shot for pun* ))
Omega19x: (baaad pun)
ph33r my rod: "Got any strawberry puffs left~?"
Omega19x: "I thought you might come by..." Ryou
winked. "There's a batch in the oven right now, and they
should be done..."
Omega19x: the buzzer went off. "Right about now!"
ph33r my rod: "Ooh, perfect timing."
Omega19x: Ryou smiled. "Just one second!"
ph33r my rod: Malik grinned back. "Okay~!"
Omega19x: He rushed back in the back, and pulled a
tray of puff shells out of the oven. He quickly filled them
with fresh strawberry cream, and brought a whole tray
out.
ph33r my rod: Malik closed his eyes, taking a good long
whiff. "...oh man, fresh puffs. I could just about melt here."
Omega19x: "oh, don't do that..."
Omega19x: "How many do you want?"
ph33r my rod: "One, and then another one the free
puff~."
Omega19x: Ryou put two strawberry puffs in a nice bag
for Malik.
Omega19x: "There you go. Two puffs... one of them
free."
ph33r my rod: Malik took the bag, digging some money
out of his pocket. "Thanks~"
Omega19x: "Any time." Ryou smiled. "you're my
favorite customer."
ph33r my rod: Malik paid for the one puff and smiled
back. "Well, you're uh... my favorite employee?" He titled
his head. That didn't sound quite right.
Omega19x: "Thanks..." Ryou blushed.
ph33r my rod: Malik reached into the bag and took out
one of the puffs, popping it into his mouth. "...mm."
Omega19x: (and food)
Omega19x is away at 5:54:06 PM.
Omega19x returned at 6:48:42 PM.
Omega19x: "... perfect puffs... in a perfectly back to
normal world." Ryou smiled with sweet relief.
Omega19x: (bad pun)
ph33r my rod: (( XDDD ))
Omega19x: (Isis, go get your little Malik!!!)
ph33r my rod: (( ...*dies* Eep. ))
ph33r my rod: "Mhm." Malik smiled as he finished off the
puff. He reached back into the bag and took out the other
puff, offering it to Ryou. "Here~"
Omega19x: "For me?"
ph33r my rod: "Yup!"
Omega19x: Ryou smiled. "You're the best!"
ph33r my rod: Malik grinned back at him. "I have the
best."
Omega19x: Ryou again blushed, his cheeks like the
strawberry cream softly dripping out of the puff shell.
ph33r my rod: "Aaaand I wasn't sure if you'd had any
puffs yet since you've been working so hard, and that
simply wouldn't do~"
Omega19x: Ryou finished his puff. "Out of all of these
puffs, this one tastes the best, because it's from you."
ph33r my rod: Malik leaned over the counter to give him a
peck on the cheek. "I'm just made of magic like that~ But
I'd better get going, I'm such a distraction here~"
Omega19x: Ryou finished his puff and giggled a little.
"I'll be home in a few hours, when the store closes."
ph33r my rod: "'Kay. I'll make us some dinner, alright~?"
Omega19x: "Allright." Ryou waved again. "see you
tonight!"
ph33r my rod: "Okay!" Malik waved and backed away,
almost into the customer behind him. "Eep." He flailed a
little and actually watched where he was walking this time,
waving at Ryou again as he walked out of the shop.
