Golden Years

In Reality

So Asami was sitting there on a bench feeling the nice breeze run through her hair. Subaru was busy checking the time looking out for trouble and stealing glances over at Asami. "Mizuki's late." Subaru said

"Ah my friend Mizuki is never late look again!"

Mizuki and Kendall were at a distance from Asami and Subaru. Mizuki was feeding and talking to his squirrel friend, Catherine. It seemed like Kendall was imitating squirrel noises which were spot on. Those two were distracted and having fun that they didn't realize Subaru and Asami were watching them from afar.

"See he's here. Come on let's go over!" Asami said as she walked up to see Mizuki talking to a squirrel. She looked closer and noticed the squirrel. "Catherine? Oh my! It's been forever! Last time I saw you, you were just a little peanut! You've grown!" Asami beamed.

"You talk to animals?" Subaru asked.

"I wish"

"Catherine is happy to see you again, Asami." Catherine peered at her on Mizuki's shoulder.

"She's so adorable, I can speak her language perfectly." Kendall said giggling. "Even though I'm not sure what I'm saying in squirrel language."

"Catherine says that you're saying I want to eat some pie." Mizuki gave her a teasing smirk.

"Wow, really? Now that you mention pie, I feel like having some."

"Pie? Never really had any...hey Mizuki you were in my shoes...is there a safe place to eat pie and not get chased by fans?" Asami asked.

"I know a place not too far from here that you won't get recognized too easily. But just in case, you might want to wear a disguise, in case the wrong person happens to pass us."

Kendall nodded in agreement. "I want pie so badly now, I want-"

"Chocolate pie."

"You know me so well with the short time we spent together."

Mizuki gave Asami a pair of sunglasses he got out of his pocket. "Here you go."

"Oh thanks!" Asami smiled as she slipped on the sunglasses. "Alrighty let's go eat some chocolate pie!" Subaru followed behind. Keeping an eye on anyone looking shady.

At Kajima's Pies, all four of them were sitting at a table eating pie. Kendall had imaginary flowers surrounding her as she ate her pie. "This is heaven... Best thing ever."

"Hehe, you really love chocolate, don't you, Kendall?"

"I could marry it, but I rather eat it instead." She stuffed her face with the pie with Mizuki watching in shock. "What? You never seen a girl enjoy her food like this before?"

"Not like that."

"I eat like this when I really like it, I'm sorry if it makes you uncomfortable." She started eating regularly again, a little embarrassed by her act. She looked over at Subaru, and noticed that he hasn't said a word since they met up. In fact, he didn't even speak to her last time either. "Like your pie, Subaru?"

"No they put an extra teaspoon of cocoa and tried to cover it with more whip cream."
Subaru said.

Asami was just enjoying something so delicious. It melt in her mouth. She never really had anything so sweet before. Subaru then notice a group of guys a few seats down eyeing them he glanced at Mizuki and nudged in their direction.

Mizuki notched the guys Subaru had found and quickly avoided contact, but still could see them from the corner of his eye. Kendall noticed that something was wrong. "Is everything ok?"
