When Aaron and Aphmau reached the restaurant they were greeted by Kawaii~Chan and Zane. "Hello." Zane said in his usual emo tone. "Hi Zane!" Aaron and Aphmau replied in unison! "Jinx!" yelled Aphmau. Of course, following the rules of the jinx, Aaron didn't say anything in return. "Aaron Aaron Aaron!" Aphmau yelled, breaking the jinx's curse. Aaron laughed and put his arm around Aph. Of course, Zane rolled his eyes followed by Kawaii~Chan's high pitched squeal.

"When will Travis and Katelyn get here?" Zane asked.  Aphmau replied "They should be here any minute. They said they were close by when I called". 

 Kawaii~Chan asked, "Maybe we should just wait for Katelyn~Sama and Travis~Kun in the restaurant?" "That's a good idea" replied Zane, and the four of them walked inside.

They walked up to the front desk and asked if there was any available seats. "Yes" replied the man sitting at the desk, his name tag read "Guy". "How many will be sitting at your table?" Guy asked.  Aphmau replied  "Six... Guy!?  I can't believe it's you? How did you start working here?" "I'm everywhere!" Guy replied as he lifted his arms in the air. "Anyway.." Aaron sighed, "We need a table for six. Two will be arriving later." "Of course!" Guy told the group, "Right this way please!". He lead them to a table right by a window with a beautiful view of Starlight beach. "Perfect" stated Aphmau, "Thanks Guy". Guy nodded his head and left.

They were just about to order when Travis and Katelyn walked in. They walked over to the table and sat down with everyone else. "Heyyyyyy baby!" Travis said winking at Aphmau. "Hi Travis" Aphmau replied as Katelyn rolled her eyes. Travis didn't seem to notice.

They ordered their meals and at first ate in complete silence. Then Kawaii~Chan decided to start a conversation.

"Katelyn~Sama why are you upset at Travis~Kun?"

"I'm not Kawaii~Chan. I'm just..."

"Yes Katelyn~Sama is! Kawaii~Chan can feel it! Her ship is sinking!"

"Kawaii~Chan!"

Everybody just stared at one another. "Fine!" Katelyn conceded. "On the way here Travis and I had a falling out..." "Seriously?!" Travis yelled. "You call it a falling out, I call it Katelyn insists she's not interested so I get involved with another girl and she knocks that girl out!" "Katelyn!" Aphmau yelled, "Why would you do that?". Katelyn sat with a blank expression on her face. "Okay.." Aaron said trying to calm everybody down, "all we know is what we were told. Katelyn, what's your side of the story?".

Katelyn looked down at her plate. "Travis... you say you wanna be with me, but then you don't even hesitate to flirt with Aphmau of all people as soon as things get tough!" Katelyn seemed really upset, she was gripping her fork so hard her knuckles turned white. Travis interjected, "Katelyn! I was not flirting with Aphmau!" "You better not of been!" Aaron said standing up. Aphmau grabbed Aaron's shoulder and sat him down. "Really?" Katelyn asked, "Then what was that wink toward her when we started dinner?" "Me being friendly!" Travis pleaded. Katelyn rolled her eyes and, under her breath, said "Maybe a little too friendly..."

"Guys" Aphmau pleaded, "Let's just talk this out." "Travis needs some commitment!" Katelyn yelled. Now the whole restaurant had their eyes on their table. "Maybe I could," Travis yelled back, "if you would stop pushing me away! I offer to take you out, to stay home and watch a movie, I even asked if you simply wanted to order a pizza and talk! You will not give me the time of day! You flat out told me you weren't interested in a relationship! Now that I start to move on you want me?"

"Please! I couldn't care less! Just not Aphmau! Come On! She's my best friend!"

"I wasn't hitting on Aphmau! She's engaged remember!"

"Yes! Go ahead! Date anyone you want!"

"If you don't care then why did you punch that girl on the way here! Huh?"

"Because-"

"Why?"

"Because we were on our way to dinner with our friends! Aphmau wanted a triple date remember?"

"Oh? So it's a date even though you don't wanna be my girlfriend?"

"I never said I didn't!"

"Then why don't you talk to me!"

Katelyn and everybody around her was still. Katelyn picked up her bag and ran out of the restaurant.

"My shiiiiiiiiiiiip!" Kawaii~Chan yelled as tears ran down her face. "Seriously?" Zane scolded her.  "Did you see what just happened?"

"Yes Kawaii~Chan did! Her ship is sinking fast!" More tears ran down her face.

"You realize that two of our friends are in pain and all you care about is your ship?"

"No Zane~Kun it isn't like that!"

"Kawaii~Chan! Can you please be serious here?"

"Kawaii~Chan is trying!"

Zane got up from his chair and began walking out of the restaurant. Kawaii~Chan yelled after him "Zane~Kun where are you going?". He replied "To go make sure our friends are okay." "But Kawaii~Chan thought Zane~Kun didn't care about that stuff." Zane just stared at her. "Maybe I also need a break from you only caring about your stupid ship" and he walked out. "Zane~Kun wait!" and Kawaii~Chan ran after him. Aphmau and Aaron were left alone.
