In which: Let them eat cake! 

- Choya Kuwata; he said it, not Marie Antoinette. 

--------------- 

He was small, but on the plus side, Mio was not. Therefore, his friend could easily help him set up things for the surprise party. 

Choya was throwing a party. (Yeah, we know, says the reader, but shhh, I'm the narrator here.) Why? For a friend of his. To celebrate the anniversary she was free from her mother's womb. 

(Shuki's way of saying it, not his. Heaven forbid those were Choya's words. He'd rather choke.)

"You still need a stool to reach," Choya snickered, watching Mio stand on tiptoes to hang up a customized banner that said, "Happy Womb Breachment Day, Kyoto!" (Again, Shuki. But he painted it so elegantly, you wouldn't have been able to tell.)

Mio threw the nail gun, barely missing Choya's head. "Well, yeah, I'm no giant. I'm still considerably taller than you, you know."

Choya scoffed, pretending to be offended. Chuckling, Mio ruffled his friend's ginger head. It was hard to believe someone who generally carried himself with as much grace as a queen could also be an absolute menace. Get a man who can do both, Amugi often said. (Odd. Her boyfriend didn't have AS MUCH grace as a princess, but close enough, Choya supposed.)

Mio looked up from his phone. "Hey, Puyu just texted, she's here with a few people."

"Cool. You open the door, then. I'm going to hide behind the couch."

"Why...?"

"It's a surprise, dingus! I can't be seen!"

Mio opened his mouth to argue further, but he decided against it. To argue with an idiot is foolishness, he'd heard his father say. And his father was a wise man, even if he was slightly loony, he was wise. 

Puyu clearly felt obligated to let herself in, seeing as before Mio could even waltz over to the door, it had opened. Gunji, Jet, Hiroku, Naji, and Hito followed the red-eyed blonde in. 

"Oh my god, seriously?" Hito grumbled, eyeing the banner. 

Naji chuckled fondly. "Shuki..."

Hito side-eyed him. "We get it, you're hopelessly in love with him. Do you want a cookie?"

(A/N!!! Hito and Naji are siblings, lmao. You can tell) 

Mio sighed. "Once the others get here, we assume positions and wait for Ishido to bring Kyoto here."

-

"I see something!" Shuki cried, pointing. 

Kiki held his hand down. "You know nothing about being discreet," she remarked with a scoff. 

Shuki frowned at her. "I know plenty. Dad taught me a thing or two, and now I'm his second in command!"

Saoi pretended to snore. "Oh my god, lame! Boo! Your dad and his stupid quote unquote secret organization, whatever it's called."

Choya hissed loudly to quiet everyone and motioned for them to duck. A few moments later, the front door opened. 

"Uhm... Babe? It's dark in here," said Kyoto's voice, sounding confused. "And why did you take me to Choya's? He's not here."

Choya popped up from behind the couch. "I am, sorry! And I tripped and turned off the lights on accident. You can turn them back on, Ishido."

The moment Ishido turned the lights on... 

"SURPRISE, KYOTO!"

"Happy Womb Breachment Day!" Shuki, Rae, and Naji added. 

Kyoto held a hand over her heart and gasped, laughing so hard it had to hurt. 

"I hate you all... Thank you...!"

Choya snapped his fingers at Ren. "The cake!"

Ren disappeared into the kitchen and wheeled out the cake, rolling it in front of Kyoto before reassuming her place beside Amugi and Konya. 

Choya grinned. "Alright, now... What do you say we let them eat cake, Kyoto Naegi, hm? In honor to you."

Kyoto laughed. "Oh, sure... I guess we can."
