Everybody loves a Christmas fic, right? Well, I hope you enjoy mine! Now, onto the disclaimer!
Disclaimer: Heck, I wish I owned Tokyo Mew Mew! If I did, Ryou and Ichigo would be together because I hate Masaya!

I've Had It
"Augh... I'm soooo tired," Ichigo whined exhaustedly as she continued working.
It was just your average day at the Mew Mew Café. Lettuce was dropping plates, Pudding was doing crazy tricks, Mint was sipping tea, Zakuro was glaring at people, and Ichigo was doing all the work. Normally, she wouldn't mind so much, but that day her boss was being too... well, bossy. Whenever something had to be done, he'd rope Momomiya into doing it, no matter how busy she already was. Sometimes, he just seemed to love torturing her to no end. For awhile, Ichigo just huffed and put up with it, but she simply couldn't take it anymore.
"I'm tired of this!" she yelled aloud, "Why am I the only one who ever does anything around here? And why, Shirogane, am I always the one you ask to do stuff, even though I've got my hands full as it is!"
"Quit complaining and get back to work, Strawberry!" Ryou shot back in mock aggrivation, specifically avoiding having to answer the posed question.
Ichigo couldn't take it anymore, so she spoke up, "Excuse me, but ten bucks an hour is so not worth it for all the things I do! I demand a raise! And quit calling me 'Strawberry'! ...And answer me, darn it!"
Yawning, Ryou ignored her and stated, "If anyone needs me I'll be in my room." So he began walking up the stairs to his bedroom, which only furthered Ichigo's anger.
Oh, that's it. When the café closes today, I'm going to have a talk with that insensitive jerk! the fuming cat-girl cried inwardly.
That said,she continued to work, cleaning up Lettuce's messes and taking orders from the customers.
It was Friday so they closed up at ten, and the girls, with the exception of Ichigo, all went their separate ways to go home for the night.
Finally, she thought, I can give Ryou a piece of my mind.
As she was climbing the stairs, though, a small kitten came bounding down them but stopped as he noticed her presence.
"Alto?"
Okay, I know it's short, but it's just the first chapter! Well, thanks for reading! I hope you're interested enough to continue!
