Princeton's eyes grew very wide. "S-Suki?!" His hands shook and his face grew red. He looked down. "S-suki." He'd forgotten her too, forgotten her for Kate Monster...
...he'd LEFT Kate Monster...

Suki bowed. "H-HI! H-How are you?" She was going to say, "I missed you, I love you," but she was married. *SHET,* she thought.

"H-hi!" Princeton repeated feverishly. "H-hi! H-hi!" He blushed redder. "So... h-how's life t-treating you? I h-haven't s-seen you in... years..."

Suki blushed. "G-Good!" She ducked her head under his, meeting his eyes. "H-hey, you okay? You l-look red."

"N-no, I just have n-naturally orange skin," Princeton said slowly, shaking all the while. He had no idea what he was saying; all he knew was this was SUKI, and he'd had SEX with Suki, and he'd LOVED Suki... "I-I'm fine!" he squeaked. "So what brings you here?"

Suki blinked. "I live here, Princeton. What brings y-you here?" She extended her hand.

"I'm working for Kate's school now. I'm an English teacher there, so I came to pick up my two foreign exchange students," he said, without breathing even once. He took a deep gulp of air, before saying more slowly, "Do you know either Sasugay Gay or Bakiri Nara?"

"Yeah, I do. Come on, I'll show you where Bakiri lives," Suki grinned, taking Princeton's hand & leading him towards Shika's house.

Akemi woke up, standing up and finding her way to her old apartment.

Shika opened the door. "Hi, Suki..." His eyes were red and heavy-lidded, as if he'd gotten no sleep at all last night. His hair was disheveled, and he was still wearing yesterday's clothes. "H-have you seen Akemi?! We never found her in the woods and I'm afraid she..." He cut off, not able to finish.

Suki winced. "Sorry, no. I, uh, is Bakiri home?"

"Yeah; he just got back from training." Shika sighed. "I didn't tell him about A-Akemi yet... HEY, KIRI, SUKI--AND, UH--"
"Princeton," said Princeton quietly.
"--SUKI AND PRINCETON ARE HERE TO SEE YOU!"
"OKAY!" Bakiri bounded down the stairs three at a time. "Hi, Suki!"

Smiling, Suki said, "Hey, Bakiri! So, uh, P-Princeton wanted to... are... you... what for, again?"

Akemi lay on her bed, then got up. She needed ramen.

Bakiri blinked. "Yeaah?"
"I'm... I'm Princeton," Princeton explained, feeling very self-concious now that Suki was here. "I... I work at the Monstersourri School in New York, America--"
"Yeah?"
"You're coming as a foreign exchange student, didn't you... know...?" Princeton said, puzzled at Bakiri's incomprehension.
Still not showing any signs of recognition, Bakiri said, "WHAT?!"
Shika was like O.O;. "Who... what... no!" He'd already lost Akemi; he couldn't loose Bakiri too...

Lumiere was slumped over at his barstool in Ichiraku, holding an empty--fifth--bottle of sake. He didn't know what to do anymore... how to think, what to feel... He was so depsperate thta he'd regressed to Cogsworth's old ways of relieving pain--sake, sake, and more sake.

Akemi sat down two stools over from Lumi, ordered Miso Pork ramen and some sake, and stared into space.

Lumiere, hopelessly drunk and still clutching the bottle of sake, blinked. "AKEMI?! Is that... you, Akemi-kun? Mon cherie! B-bonjour! Do you want to have sex again? Did you divorce Shikamaru yet?" He drunkenly ranted on and on.
The bartender (ZAC) and several customers were now staring.
--*--
Princeton tried to convince Bakiri to come with no avail. Finally he groaned and turned to Suki. "Look, I... WE can come back here later... can you take me to Sasugay Gay's house?"
Bakiri smirked. "Sasugay GAY?!"
Shika would have found it funny too, but with Akemi gone, nothing was even remotely humourous, not at all...
