Pain opens the door for me. The cafe was so lovely looking. the Chanda luuve was pink , white with gold frames, details to a point and flowers as the main decor. Juliet the front desk lady smiled at me.
"Panic!!! So good to see you! Who's this?" She looks at pain and goes slightly red. Her voice shines in my ears normally this is a good thing. He doesn't say anything just looks a bit embarrassed but he smiles we still felt super giddy from the visit.
"He's my boyfriend!!!"
"...oh! Cute!!" She laughs "Hi mr! Wow you're quite the catch huh? I'm Juliet now what can I do for you today?" She sounds of. She leans over the desk. Did she just call pain a catch??? It's fine remember you had the most perfect day don't let little miss Juliet ruin it.
"It's pain and uh.." he looks at me before looking to the small board above the desk. It's a list of guys. "Who's the one you normally go to babe?" Aw..I love pet names.
"Oh Rio!" I beam.Juliet points us towards the waiting sofas as She types away. Pain looks at me and whispers.
"Juliet's...a bit odd." I nod in agreement.
"She just doesn't expect new people is all don't worry I don't like her either."
"She called me a catch" he laughed
"Well you are a catch!! You're a hunk!!!" I giggle clinging onto his arm. Kissing his cheek. He goes red his skin feeling even warmer than normal. He's like a hot water bottle but I mean the good ones! The ones you had for years that you will never throw away.
"You're gonna have to show me the menu not sure what they do here." He changes the subject. I think pain will really like it here. Sweet foods. After all how could he not a man who has 7 sugars in a morning coffee must love sugar.
"Oh!! Deserts!" I beamed as He smiled. Pain has a subtle smile with most people but with me it's bright and toothy."Ok!! He's ready you can go through!!" Juliet spoke finally!! I knew pain would love this place it's my number 1 place to go. It just tops off everything from today. We get up wandering down the halls of small rooms decorated to a tea before stopping at door number 9. Rio was so nice he was the best guy here! Me and Yope tried a few others but for example Morgan room 5 was sarcastic but would often act kind of teasing I guess people like it if they're more chatty and have banter. Not my personal thing i want in a waiter I just want someone who's nice. Pain would like Rio I think! Rio was chatty but pain always says he likes it when people talk more. He's never been the best with words but I talk enough for both of us.
The door opens. The same as always it's 2 white leather sofas with a table with afternoon tea in the Center. I lead pain to the sofa and sit him down the only bad thing about Rio as a waiter was he was late a lot.
"Panic!! How's my favourite client!!!" His voice was drenched in over confidence in that deep voice he definitely put on. He barged through a small door on the side I think it's staff only.
"I'm AMAZING!! how are you!!!"
"I'm fine! Same old same old!" He looks over to pain. "Oh and who's this?"
"My boyfriend!!!" Pain waves as I nuzzle into his shoulder. He leans over grabbing a slice of cake from the afternoon tea set before kissing me on the forehead.
"Huh.. well sir lovely to meet you I'm Rio." He walks closer putting his arm out for pain to shake with his free hand. "You got quite the handshake! How long have you 2 been together?"
"Almost 6 years oh and it's pain." He mumbles through bites of cake.
"WOW!" He grabs a full tea cup sitting on the opposite sofa.
" I know right" I chime. "Me and him are here on a little celebration thing! I managed to do a top 17 members hair and and and get this SHE LIVES NEAR BY!!" I can't help but squeal at that point I mean Jesus I can hardly contain myself anymore. He spits out his tea.
"WHA-" his voice goes back to what I can only assume is his normal voice. Higher and most of all no fake British accent if anything slightly Portuguese. He coughs before going back to the put on voice me and pain can't help but look at each other and giggle. "I mean what! That's incredible who was it?"
"Hamiki!!!"
"Oooo. Someone's living the dream then. You 2 should treat yourselves tonight I can grab extra stuff it's only a tiny tiny bit more expensive!!" That was a lie last time I got extra stuff I think my soul left my body that's how expensive it was.
"No no it's fine!! We have fluffy and spee to look after." I look over to pain and I don't think I've seen him eat this much before. He looks back up at me before offering a cupcake. I take it giving him a kiss on the forehead. He loves it. I can tell.
"Who's spee?"
"Oh our new roommate he's so sweet he's from the circus I think?"
"You met 3 members of the top 17 then?" Huh?
"No no it was 2??"
"No??? First you met dusk then you met Hamiki but the guy from the circus is a member..Joel? Number 7?" HOLY SHIT NO WAY NO THERES NO NO NO WAY I DID NOT. I couldn't have!!! We didn't talk I just went to his show but he's a member of the top 17?? I should have brought more money. "You went to the show right?" I nod. "Right then technically you've seen 3!" He beams.Pain looks at me I practically wrap my arms as tightly around him as a could.
"HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT AAAAAAA!!! THIS IS SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO COOL I SHOULD Have GOT AUTOGRAPHS AAAAAA!!" I can feel my voice going higher and higher I can hardly breathe maybe those extra things would be a good idea. I think Rio covers his eyes and ears before everything goes dark?Glass shatters onto the table. I let go of pain. What the fuck just happened?! Pain quickly takes a lighter out his pocket and uses it like a candle. The lights broken pieces cover the table and Rio is sitting there his eyes closed his hands covering his ears. Pain gets up and taps him on the shoulder. He looks up .
"What . The . fuck...." He stops the overly put on voice. "WHO DID THAT???" I immediately take out my purse handing him whatever money was in there.
"Ok..ok I'm so sorry this should cover it I'll even give you extra!!" I keep handing him money.
"Please Rio we didn't mean to it was all my fault." Pain chimes. No he shouldn't take the blame. Wtf.
"No no no it was mine!" I shake my head. Rio looks at us both as I kept handing him whatever old notes sat in my purse. I ended up handing him at least 120. No big shops for a while me and pain will have to eat canned food for the next week or 2. His expression quickly changes. His eyes wider and his jaw dropped even lower.
"Mhm...mhm. Alright I'll let it slide!" He scrunched the money in his hand still staring at the notes. "Now both of you can leave if anyone says anything I'll keep my lips sealed. Now go go." He smiles brightly "HAVE A LOVELY EVENING!!!" We walk towards the door. How did that actually work. How the fuck. He was fine with it! I guess that's the thing with this place it's still a host club they still want a lot of money. Shame. But hey at least we don't have to worry about being banned?Pain grabs my arm looking at me.
"Sorry.. turned out to be a bit of a mes-" I sigh. He gives me a quick peck on the lips quickly before shaking his head.
"No no it was great! Food was great waiter was nice too. Not to mention we can still come back." He laughs. We walk past Morgan before all the shouting starts.
"RIO WHAT THE F-"
"AH JULIET HELP MORGAN SAW A UH..SPIDER AND JUMPED ONTO THE TABLE AND HIT HIS HEAD!! HES BLEEDING!!"
"EXCUSE ME AGH-" there's a loud shattering sound followed by Juliet sprinting down the hall. Me and pain pick up the pace to get out of there as soon as possible.
"At least he didn't say it was us!!" I laugh.
"Mhm.."We keep walking back to the flat. I DONT know how I'll tell Yope about today. She'd love to hear about it supernatural royalty and a really shortly cut date. The flat door opens after taking forever walking up the stairs. And all we see is fluffy under a bridge of cds, vhs cases and album records. Spee keeps adding to it as both don't notice we're home. Looking down though all I see is a pile of letters and most likely bills. I grab the pile putting them on the coffee table before leading pain into the bedroom. I'm tired and don't really fancy sleeping on the sofa again. It's a weird day in a good way I don't know why yuri made me so lucky. I should thank him next time I pray. Maybe even start the shrine I was planning on. The booklets on royalty might not be enough!
Me and pain just lay there we had changed into more comfortable pyjamas and we just laid there. I love pain. Without him I don't think I would have had the guts to meet Hamiki and hold a conversation. Pain always tries with me. He's not a talker by any means but with his few words he was smart with them. It wasn't even about what he said it was just holding me letting me do whatever. I want to just be with him all the time. I look up at him.
"Pain."
"Yeah?"
"You helped me a lot today."
"No I didn't you did it all yourself..."
"You know I love you.. we might actually make something for ourselves you know? Might be..important."
"You're already important." He nestles his head on my shoulder. "I love you too." He's so warm. His skin is rough scratchy I like it. We could just lay there forever but I think we both know that wouldn't be possible.
