Standing behind the counter, watching over the ramen she was cooking, Min Min glanced over towards the doors when the bell above signaled the arrival of new customers. Upon seeing who was here, she stiffened and turned back to her cooking to avoid eye contact.

"So why are we here again, Ninjara?" asked the first voice.

"Because there are other foods out there besides pizza," replied the second voice, sounding exasperated.

The two ARMS fighters made their way over to the counter to sit and placed their orders.

"Bite your tongue, Ninjara. Pizza is the raddest of all the foods out there!" exclaimed Spring Man with a grin.

This earned him a glare from his rival. "Stop being so loud! And you need to broaden your horizons when it comes to food."

"Why? I can easily live off of pizza!"

"All the more reason you need to eat other things," replied Ninjara with a deadpan tone. It was then that Min Min placed their ramen before them, mumbling out an 'enjoy your meal' while still avoiding eye contact.

Spring Man looked at the noodles before looking at the chopsticks quizzically. "Ah…?"

"Another reason to eat different foods," stated Ninjara after slurping up some noodles with ease with his chopsticks. "Learning how to use actual utensils."

It was Spring Man's turn to glare, causing Ninjara to smirk in victory. The blue-haired fighter then turned towards Min Min with an embarrassed grin, causing her tense up.

"Um, you wouldn't happen to have forks here, right?"

Giving a quick nod, Min Min made her way to where the utensils were a grabbed a fork. Making her way back, she placed the utensil next to Spring Man's bowl.

"Thanks!" exclaimed Spring Man with a grin.

A small smile made its way onto Min Min's face before she went back to her cooking.

Ninjara watched as Spring Man took his first bite of ramen. "Would you agree now that pizza isn't the only thing to eat?"

Swallowing the noodles in his mouth, Spring Man gave his answer. "I'll admit, this ramen isn't that bad. Pizza will always be my favorite, but I wouldn't mind coming here more often."

"I suppose that's a start," replied the ninja with a sigh.

"Plus I can see why you like coming here so much."

That got Ninjara's attention. "What are you talking about? Of course I would come here for the ramen."

As Ninjara took another bite of his ramen, a grin appeared on Spring Man's face as he lowered his voice to a whisper. "You sure it's not because of the cute waitress?"

Min Min, who was off to the side listening to the conversation, blushed heavily at the "cute waitress" comment while Ninjara started choking on his food. Once he got the food down his throat properly, Ninjara glared hatefully at his rival.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" hissed the ninja, a heavy blush on his face.

"Ah come on, buddy! I was just messing with you!" laughed Spring Man as he slapped his friend's back. "Although I wouldn't blame you if that were the reason."

If he could get away with murder, Ninjara would kill the man sitting next to him in an instant. He placed some money on the table to pay for the noodles and then made his way out of the restaurant. Not wanting to be left behind, Spring Man quickly finished his meal.

"Thanks for the grub!" exclaimed Spring Man, giving Min Min a happy smile. He then went after his friend before the ninja got too far ahead.

Once they were gone, Min Min collected the payment and then the empty bowls. When she reached for the fork, she stopped for a moment as a blush appeared on her face.

"Maybe I can figure out a way to combine ramen and pizza."

With that idea in mind, Min Min took the dishes to the back and stared making plans for a new food idea.

FIN

-:-

Because main guy x main girl and ninja x ramen are cliché as hell.

This will probably end up as a one-shot collection starring these two 'cause I really want to do more with these two.
