Cake's POV

BEEP BEEP BEEP UGH, my alarm again... I got up and got dressed, and was ready to grab my keys, when I noticed I set the paper next to them. I grabbed the paper and my keys, and drove down to the shop. Pie was waiting for me.

"Hi Pi-" "Show me the paper! I have GOT to see this!" I handed the paper to her, "A simple hello would've been nice!" "Nevermind that! The paper is way more important!" she hastily unfolds to reveal the logo and signature. "So? Do you know?" I ask. "No, it looks familiar though." "Hmm, I wonder..." "You saw them in the park across the street right?" "Yeah, why?" "Maybe you'll see them again!" "Huh good idea..." "but for now let's focus on the shop!" "heh, yeah."

She turned on the sign and unlocked the door. Another day of work, hopefully less rush...


Pie's POV

Well, I couldn't recognize it, but that symbol HAD to be from somewhere. Leafy came back to help, Cake was interacting with customers, and all was well. We had a moderately good rush, until the lunch hour when it really took off. 

"Pie! What was with these cookies?!" "With this slice of strawberry cheesecake and coffee!" "On it!" Oh god I can't wait for our lunch break... "Cake how ya doin' up there?" "Kinda good; We need another batch of vanilla-chocolate chip up here!" "On it!"


TIMESKIP TO 1:00 (Lunch Break)

"We did it Cake! Lunch rush is over!" "Oh thank god!" Cake was exhausted, "Taking orders and bringing it to tables is a lot of work!" he exclaimed as we all sat down. "Oh man, I didn't relize how much help all of you actually needed!" "Will a business like this, of coarse we need it! Thanks for the help Leafy!" Cake exclaimed. GB and TB walked in and brought us a few sandwiches from a few doors down.

"Hey guys! I see the business is going well!" GB says, "Yeah, I saw the huge rush! I might as well just order now so I don't have to wait!" as GB quickly follows her. "Well we could always use help! There's a lot to do!" Cake follows up with as he takes a big bite of his sandwich. "Well let's wait for Sunday, when the weekly amount comes in!"


Cakes POV

"Well TB, it will pay well!" We all had lunch, and I showed everyone the paper. "Huh, I don't recognize it, do you GB?" TB asked. "HOW DOES NO ONE RECOGNIZE IT?!" GB blurted out, "THAT'S LOSER! ONE OF THE BIGGEST IDOLS OUT THERE!" "Who? and stop yelling you're giving me a headache," Pie complained. "AND YOU MET HIM AT THE PARK?! WOA!" Golf ball seemed pretty amazed, while Tennis Ball seemed a little jealous... "He's ok I guess."

Pie looked him up on her phone and we all read the wiki article on him. Turns out he's huge out in the East. He was in a huge amount of movies, and would sometimes write love songs. No wonder GB liked him so much. I think she liked the movie part the best. He was always the hero of the story. "He's kinda cute." I whisper to Pie. 

"Well it doesn't necessarily mean that was him," pie explained, "it could've been a huge fan or something who dropped that." "Aww man! I would've loved to meet him!" Golfball whines. "That signature would be worth a lot if you sold it!" "Well GB, we gotta go before the boss gets mad!" "Later!" She exclaimed as she jumps on TB's back as he carries her out the front door. I put the paper back in my pocket and continued my shift till closing time...


Timeskip to the end of the day. [6:00]

"Well, maybe I'll meet them again today!" I thought to myself as Leafy biked away. I walked in the park and sat down on a bench. I unfolded the paper and looked at it. It looked like an actual signature, with a hand-drawn logo. As I examined it, someone sat next to me and scared the crap out of me. "AH!" "Sorry if I scared you." "Oh it- it's ok?" I stuttered, realizing it was the same trench-coat-wearing figure from the other day. "Oh uhh, you dropped this!" I stuttered, handing him the paper. "Oh thanks! It's fine though, you can keep it!" What?! GB said it was worth a ton! Why would someone let me keep it like that!? "B-bu-but-" he cut me off. "It's fine, no problem." I- I just couldn't respond... It didn't help his voice made me flip. It was smooth and calm, and I was a heated mess. "So, um... will I... uhh... be... uhh... seeing you again here..?" I was too flustered to be able to properly say anything. "No, sorry, this is the last time I'll see you like this." "I- uhh- what- I-" I couldn't stop. I didn't even know him, and I was blushing and was a hot mess! "I hope to see you in the bakery sometime!" as he walked away. I couldn't even follow him! I couldn't do anything! It was like he enraptured me in a trance.

I suddenly snapped out of it, but he was nowhere to be seen. I drove home, and decided to listen to some of Loser's songs. They were all about longing for a partner, relatable. I downloaded a few and pinned the signature to my bulletin board along with all my important photos and notes. I started listening to his songs, and quickly fell asleep on my couch... This was a crazy day...

"Hey, it's Pie. I can tell you're tired, since you didn't pick up. Well, see you tomorrow little bro. Night. BEEP"
