Alone.

[Icey]

The figure of a young girl was sitting in a cafe. Her dark silhouette was almost hidden against the dark shaded chair, but she was doing nothing in particular, just sitting with some ice cream in front of her. The cafe atmosphere was all around, the soft glow of the lavender lamp, the sweet and creamy smell of cake and coffee, the darkened sky outside promising a breathtaking sunset, the shadows that the shades casted everywhere...

Yuu's dull blue eyes stared emotionlessly at the passing people outside of the window as she toyed with the cherry that was sitting on top of the ice cream. As usual she was spaced out and oblivious to the events happening all around her. She spent the whole day at the cafe with nothing better to do. Just give this girl some ice cream and she'd be absorbed and entertained for hours.

Or course, spending the whole day just in a cafe isn't the only thing different about Yuu. A blue dress adorned with lacy touches of darker shades of blue and pure white around the collar, sleeves, and the trim isn't an everyday sight. Such a fancy dress with frills everywhere is generally accompanied by either a princess that's going to a ball, or maybe a maiden in distress waiting for Prince Charming to save the day. Not likely.

Still, Yuu didn't seem to notice her unique features at all. Her attention was soon drawn completely on whether she should eat the cherry first or after she finished the ice cream. The cerise cherry had captivated the young girl's attention for quite some time now. Outside, the sun was beginning to set. The sky was painted various shades of blue, orange, red, yellow, and purple. Wisps of clouds drifted around here and there, adding a dreamy touch to this landscape. The blue was slowly darkening to a navy blue, hinting the beginning of a lonely night. Another day wasted at the cafe, but the Vocaloid didn't seem to mind.

[[Hello! Hope you don't mind me joining xD]]

It was just another day really, singing at the recording studio and then moving on to his daily activities, which consisted of visiting the library before visiting the park, and then dropping by the dance studio to practice. In the evening, Ai's activities varied though, from being tortured by hanging out with his sister, to more dance activities. Today, he decided to visit the quaint cafe tucked into the corner of the street for a quick snack. Some people told him that the food was rather good, and since he was kinda hungry, he may as well just grab something. The young boy ducked into the cafe eagerly, flashing a friendly smile to the waitress that showed him to a booth in between two occupied ones. Seated in the booth in front, was a young couple that were sharing their day with each other. Ai smiled a little, it was nice to see couples enjoying each other's company. Then as he turned to the back, he saw a young girl there, probably about his age, staring aimlessly at her ice-cream.

Ai blinked at her, but didn't say anything. She seemed rather... Lost in some sort of way. The boy frowned, he kinda found her familiar, perhaps he had met her along the street last week? Or maybe it was in the pet shop? No no, that wasn't it, Sayuki was the one he had waved to on the street last week, and Kala was the one he met in the pet shop. Ai mused to himself before finally getting it. That was right, he had seen her around the recording studio before. She must be another vocaloid then, he thought to himself decisively as the waitress came over to take his order. "You know, that girl sitting behind you?" The waitress whispered conspiringly just before she was about to leave for the kitchen. Ai cocked his head to the side questioningly. "She's a little weird, comes here everyday and sits at the same spot for the whole entire time the cafe is open." The waitress told him quietly before leaving. Ai blinked, wow, the girl behind him must have a hell lot of patience.

The boy pursed his lips thoughtfully, maybe he should say hi. It never did hurt him to be friendly. With that, Ai turned around and gave a friendly smile to the girl. "Hi! Whatcha doing?"

To others, the greeting may sounded very abrupt and awkward, but to Ai, it came naturally. It was his personality to be friendly after all.

Ooc// -cough- Really late, sorry. ^^;

Bic// A sudden sound made Yuu whirl around, surprised at the greeting. Usually people just left her alone in her own little world and didn't bother with her. When she turned around, the girl was looking at a boy, maybe a bit older than her with a smile on his face. He seemed pretty friendly, and not just the "Hey-I'm-gonna-be-nice-to-her-and-then-ditch-her-after" Kind of friendly, but the genuine kind. She couldn't help but allow a small grin to appear on the corner of her lips, too.

Wait... Those eyes, she's seen them before. Just briefly, perhaps, but she remembers them. Still, the vocaloid wasn't one to really remember faces, so either he was really special or she's just seen him many times. Not on the streets, though, or else she would've forgotten him ages ago. Maybe... Another vocaloid? Yes, that has to be it, or else she would've never remembered him.

However, she just couldn't seem to put a name to this face. Nope, not the slightest clue. Still, after all the time she's spent thinking, the girl didn't really greet whoever this is back. "Oh! Um... Hello." It was so quiet like a soft murmur of the wind that it's a surprise that she could even be heard.

Yuu was still trying to remember his name, but came down with no success. Ah, she decided to give up. It was too much work anyways. Behind her the long-forgotten ice cream was beginning to melt, the icy cold sweet dissolving into nothing more than a thick, creamy mixture.
