Nothing like a bit of pity-tea and old friends to help Alfred get over the small fit of the sniffles he was having. He really liked Mei, she was sweet, a little... odd at times, but sweet and not overbearing and her mom wasn't half-bad looking either. But the constant attempts to get them together was really weird sometimes.

He jogged over to the small teashop, glad to see it was still there and peered inside, face half-squishing against the glass as he spotted her, knocking on the window, smiling widely before hurrying over to the door, wrenching it open and grabbing the small girl in a tight hug.

"Meiiiiiiiiii~" he said, laughing, squeezing her, "Look at you! You're taller than before! And prettier too~~"

Mei didn't remember Al being so... touchy. Al's hug knocked the air right out of her, making her squeak like a toy. Since she hadn't been hugged by a man in so long, Mei couldn't help herself but start to blush. A lot. A really lot. A really really lot to the point where she thought she might faint from the bliss of being touched by a man ( ... )

Alfred had to bend down a little so Mei could reach and he smiled warmly at him, eyes crinkling and he scratched the side of his face guiltily. "I'm fine Mei! Really, it's just a little cold, you know me, I'll get over it!"

He sat down quickly, eying the small sausages interestedly but knew he should wait; Mei was very stern when it came to manners at the teahouse (which he had only learnt after having hot tea spilt over his hands by the girl when they were younger.)

"But really," he said, trying to get the subject away from his cold, "You're a lot prettier! You gotta have a boyfriend or somethin'!" Alfred would've been shocked to hear that she was alone, Mei had definitely blossomed from the little ball of baby-fat and cuteness he had known during his summers here in Liberty City.

"You better get over it," Mei said. "I'd just feel for Mattie if he has to take care of you and ugh ( ... )

Miracle of miracles, her brother had actually gotten a job. A real job. Granted, Emi had first assumed that he had snagged a job at Euforia as their janitor. Or their mail clerk, if she wanted to be optimistic. But disbelief aside, she was, in a sense, proud - albeit, she was waiting for him to slip up and get fired after his first week there.

But for now, she didn't have to worry about having her idiot twin freeload off of her and Luciano. And what better way to stop this cycle of freeloading?

Have Juan buy her a raspado on this hot summer day.

However, they may had taken a wrong turn as they both soon found themselves outside of the Green Palace. In front of a kissing booth. Run by that chick from Glee Club (Mei, right?) and...Matt's brother.

Oh, fantastic.

Mei perked up when she saw two potential customers approaching. She moved her head off Al's shoulder and sat up properly with her hands on her table. She flashed her business partner a grin, just like back in the days.

Her face bleached when she saw that the woman was from her glee club. For a moment, she wanted to duck her head and pretended she wasn't here. But hell, she was in it together with Al, and she wasn't going to ditch her man.

She greeted... uh... Emily...? Emi... with a beaming smile and laid out her sales pitch. It was all in good fun, all in good fun!

"Good evening, how are you doing? How would you like to purchase a lovely kiss from this fine gentleman over here? For the cheap price of $2, he will give you a darling kiss to the cheek. What do you say? It's a good deal, right? Of course, if you feel yourself falling under the charm of my friend here, we do provide other levels of service."

Mierda.

Casting Mei a strained smile, she gave a quick shake of her head. "I'm fine, querida. I, uh, already have someone. And doing this is a bit...pues." She paused. "We'll just be on our way."

However, just as she was about to grab hold of her brother's arm, Emi stopped, brow furrowing slightly. Was the idiot blushing? Why the hell was he-? She glanced over at Alfred.

Oh.

Right. She'd forgotten. Her brother was a closet gay had a thing for blondes.

Luce didn't want to go back to her house right away, she was still too flustered to try and explain to her mother why her face was a permanate shade of puce. It didn't take her long to decide where to go- After all, The Green Palace was the best place for tea and she definately needed some to calm her stomach.

Mei was probably there as well... So maybe they could chat too. Luce knew her somewhat, but the way it was looking, she really needed more girl-friends. Why were men so perverted? Alfred on Friday and Francis today...

She rode her bike over to the teashop and locked it into the bike rack, walking up to the door and pausing as she saw Alfred and Mei and a rather curious looking paper on a booth. As she looked down at it, she paled.

"Oh you've got to be fucking kidding me-" she said, looking up at the two, damning her 'proper lady speech' for the moment.

Alfred had almost been falling asleep on Mei's head when he heard he jingling of a bike lock and sat up, seeing Lucy looking at his price list.

"Hey Lucy!" he said, voice friendly, casual and with a hint of something else, almost like honey, "You want in~? It's all for fun!"

"No! You- you-" Lucy stuttered, staring at Alfred with wide eyes, looking over at Mei and frowning. "Mei! What the hell is up with this? You're partnered up with this... this... pervert?!" she questioned, legs feeling a little weak.

God, how much more sexual harassment could she take today? All from pretty blonde men-

Why did Liberty have to have so many pretty blondes?

Alfred shook his head. "Lucy, chill!" he said quietly, standing and taking her shoulders, smiling still. "It's just two bucks and I'll just get your cheek."

Then he winked. "And you can pay the rest of the seven bucks if you want more~"

The cats at home were driving Kim insane. Andie was being overprotective. Almost too overprotective, not letting the others get closer than five feet from her kittens. It was stressful, considering Kim wanted to make sure they were well fed by the cat. But she figured they were, and instead decided to head out and get some more food for her pets.

And some incense. She was getting empty of it...

Happy with her purchases half an hour later, Kim headed back home, passing by the Green Palace on the way.

"... What the....?" Was that a kissing booth? With Mei? And Al?? This was just... She'd expected it from Al, but...

No, quite honestly, she would probably expect it from Mei as well.
Of course she had to walk over, cause she had to find out what in the world was wrong with their heads.
"Kissing booth?" she looked at them. "What if your mom sees you, Mei? Have you lost it?"

"Ruin my fun, why don't you?" Mei pouted, resting her chin on her palm. She looked back at the tea house and shooed the employees staring at her. "Mom went to mah-jong with her friends. I'm sure Al and I will close up shop by then."

She scooted over to the edge of the table while the other customers studied the price chart. She gestured to the chart, presenting it to Kim.

"Only two dollars, Kimmy. Wouldn't you like a kiss from Al? I've heard he is a good kisser. Hahah~"

The price chart was practically shouting to Kim to be part of the "fun".
"I'd imagine kissing was a lot more fun when you didn't have to pay for it." she muttered to herself.

"Uuhh... No thanks. I've had my share of his kisses....." she shook her head at Mei's suggestion.

After that she turned to Alfred. He apparently hadn't changed that much after all. Well, at least it was only kissing and nothing more...

Alfred blinked at her. "C'mon Kim! It's all for fun and I'll just catch ya on the cheek like a real gentleman!"

And hopefully leave you wanting more so I can finally get to second base...

Pffffft, why did I drag her here again? XD ribbonlily July 26 2010, 00:40:00 UTC
Once again, Lenna found herself wandering the streets of Liberty, not really sure where she was going until she recognized the scent of ginseng.

When did she arrive in Huayuan?

Shrugging it off, she traveled the recognizable route to a familiar tea house that Mei's family owned. Maybe she'd be able to get a free cup of tea, while she was at it. That was her thought until two familiar faces same into her vision, along with a line of what seemed to be customers. That was when she noticed the sign.

Lenna decided it would be best to stay in the background for now and try to maneuver around the small alleyway to get around. If Mei saw her, there was a good chance that she'd be convinced somehow to participate. And even if it was Alfred who was over there and somehow looking incredibly. Yeah, she'd stay in the background.

Vash would be happier with that too.

Spotting a small blond in the distance, Alfred quickly shook Mei's shoulder and stood up, waving quickly. "Hey! Lenna! Lenna! Over here! I got something I wanna show ya!"

This was turning out to be some great business, all the girls he had met happened to be stopping by that day meaning that he could actually have a shot at convincing them to let him kiss them.

She froze and hesitantly waved back, not sure if she should actually head back to where he was or not. Well, it would be rude if she didn't...

"Mei, I think your mom would have your head if she caught you doing this," Lenna managed to joke quietly.

She idly wondered if they could be arrested for soliciting persons.

Mei leaped out of her chair and waved eagerly at Lenna. Her whole mind had been caught up in the thrill of the moment that she didn't even care what she was doing or what would happen if her mom found her.

"It's cool," she said with a shrug. "Mom's gone for the night. Plus, Al and I have been making banks, Lenna. And it would be awesome if you would contribute a few dollars to our cause."

What the cause might be, she had no idea. But she just smiled and waited for Lenna to fall for Al's charming grin.
