~ My Hope ~ Maid Sama

Chapter 5

Usui gave a childish smile and entered the ice cream parlour, only to be met with the angry stare of Aiko...

He froze in his spot. "Great. Now I'll get told off at 'home.' "

Usui sighed and walked over to a table far away from Aiko. He's not in the mood to hear her nonsense.

"So what do you wanna order?" He asked, picking up the menu.

"Hmm...I don't know.." Misaki wondered out loud. "Why don't you pick for me, I don't really know which tastes good," she spoke and turned to Usui.

"Hm? Haven't you been to an ice cream parlour before?" He questioned.

"Not really, I'm always either working or studying and never have free time to spend," she admitted.

Usui sat there, eyes widened.

"Well then! I've been here before, their ice cream sundae is amazing! Should I order 2?"

"Sure," she replied, smiling at him.

Misaki stood up and walked over to the cashier-person. (A/N sorry I forgot what they're called-)

"Wait, I'll go ord-" Usui started.

"You're already paying, so relax, I'll order," Misaki demanded. (A/N lmao she's demanding him to relax XD)

She came back after a few moments, frowning slightly. "What? Something wrong?" Usui asked.

"They only have enough for one ice cream sundae," She mentioned.

"Sooo?" Usui questioned.

"Soooo...we are two people" She put emphasis on the "two."

Usui chuckled, "Misaki...you know we can share one ice cream sundae right?" He questioned.

"Isn't that something couples do? We are not a couple." She stated, scanning the room to find couples sharing an ice cream.

"We'll see~" Usui took the chance to tease her. "Ha!? What did you just say!?"

He burst out laughing. "Calm down I'm just teasing..!" Usui said while wiping away his tears.

~•~

"Here," Misaki passed Usui a spoon. "It looks tasty doesn't it?" Usui replied while taking the spoon from her. Misaki took a small scoop of the ice cream and tasted it.

The minute she took that bite, she forgot about literally everything and enjoyed the heavenly taste.

"Oh my goodness how is this so good!?" She practically yelled.

"I'm surprised you've never been here before, everyone in town talks about this place!" Usui wondered.

"You see, I don't live in this town. I'm just here because of my work. Speaking of whi-"

"Takumi! There you are! How dare you go on a date with this other woman when you're engaged to me!?" Aiko cut Misaki off.

"Um, we're not on a da-" "Shut up peasant!" Aiko yelled at Misaki, cutting her off again.

"I'm just going to freshen up.." Misaki announced while standing up. She headed to the bathroom, not wanting to interfere with the argument.

"Aiko that was rude," Usui said, not an ounce of emotion in his voice. Aiko scoffed.

"Excuse me!? You're on a date with another woman and I'm the rude one!?" She questioned in disbelief.

"I'm not on a date! I'm having ice cream with a friend!" Usui put emphasis on "friend."
