My Life as a Fangirl

Perfect Together

A/N: I totally forgot about this song. I love it so much. lol anyway let's goooo~~

My name is Nishino Mei. I'm a baker in a bakery not too far from where I live. I bake all kinds of sweets. You name it and I can make it. That is until one day I couldn't make something someone had asked for.

"Welcome!" I said as the door opened.

"Yes can I have a cupcake?" He asked.

"Sure." I answered and grabbed a cupcake with blue frosting and sprinkles.

"This is too simple. I want a coffee flavored one!" He said with a cocky tone that aggravated me.

"Do you have a recipe?" I asked.

"No. I heard that you could bake anything so I came to see for myself." He said getting in my face.

"I'm going to charge double." I said.

"I don't care. Just give me a cupcake." He said.

Long story short, I screwed up the cupcake. I put in too much sugar and not enough coffee. It was very stressful and embarrassing. "I'm sorry. I tasted it and it d-"

"Yuuuumm..." He said.

"You must be very insane to think that's good." I said.

"It's not the flavor that makes it good, it's the work that you put into it." He explained. "I saw you back there working your but off to please a rude costumer like me." He smiled.

I blushed and nodded. "What's your name?" I asked.

"Iwaoka Toru." He answered. "Yours?"

"My name is Nishino Mei." I answered. "Why did you come here?"

"I came here because I need you to cater for my party that's coming up." He gave me an invitation. "Come in your best and I want YOU to make the cupcakes. No one else. I'm going to give YOU the money. Not the bakery." He said.

"Okay. Thank you." I said. "How many?"

"About 400 or so. I'll give you ¥80,000." He said. ($800)

"Okay. I'll see you then."

I took off work the next day to make the cupcakes for the party the next day. I had to brainstorm on what type of cake to use and what decorations. I had to gather the recipes and make whatever preparations needed for 400 cupcakes. I decided to make 200 chocolate and 200 red velvet. I would put cream cheese icing for the velvet cakes and for the chocolate I would just use some regular vanilla icing. I will get these little edible pearls and place them on the cakes for an extra touch. I was very excited.

The day came and it was time to bake. I began with making the batter and gather all of the cupcake pans. I did this in the bakery with permission since it was closed that day. I used the bug oven and the big cupcake pan to make the process faster. Most of the time I was spending on putting the pearls onto the cakes. It was very fun and I enjoyed it very much.

After about 4 hours of baking, I loaded up the truck with some help from the local dudes and headed to the party site. To my surprise no one was there yet. I just picked a spot to set up and hoped it was okay.

"Hey!" I heard as I was setting up. "They look so pretty."

"Thank you." I said. "When is everyone coming?"

"In about an hour. I suggest you go get changed." He said.

Oh no. I was so caught up in baking that I forgot to get an outfit. "I'm so sorry but I don't have one." I said.

"It's okay. Come with me." He led me to the back and handed me over to these two women who seemed to be makeup artists. "These two will help you get ready. In the mean time, I'll watch the cupcakes.

"Thank you." I said.

After about an hour, I came out in a purple dress that made me look prettier than I ever thought I could be. My hair was in a complicated braid and my makeup was done perfectly. As I looked at myself in the mirror, I was amazing and thanked them immediately. I made my way out of the room and saw that there were a lot of people. I began to get nervous. I tripped but someone caught me.

"Be careful there." Toru said. "Those cupcakes still need to be watched." He laughed.

"T-thank you..." We paused for a minute.

My heart began to pound and I realized that we had been staring at each other for a long time. We both snapped back to reality and parted ways once again. Another hour passed and people began to leave. As the DJ was wrapping up, Toru tapped me on the shoulder.

"This is the last dance. Would you like to dance with me?" He asked.

"S-sure." I answered.

We didn't stop dancing even when the songs stopped. "The song stopped and I need to pack up." I said.

"Just a little while longer." He hugged me tighter.

"I have a question." I began. "Why did you come to the bakery that day?"

"I came in because I have loved your cakes since I was little." He answered. "I'd been looking for you ever since you left. Once I found you, I had to try your baking again."

"So you know me?" I asked.

"Yep." He answered.

"I knew your name sounded familiar." I said and leaned on him.

"Can we stay like this forever?"

"Sure."

We may not be perfect but we're perfect together...
