Fumika's POV

"Amano-san, Nijino-san, you two will be in group A." Ameiya-sensei announced. The class turned to Ichigo and Fumika, shocked, but Fumika didn't see what was so amazing about it.

"A-Alright." Ichigo stuttered.

"That's amazing, Ichigo-chan. Group A is where the sweets princes are! The group's results are the top of the class!" Rumi shouted, making her way to Ichigo's side.

Ichigo gasped, eyes wide. "You're kidding! Why am I joining that group?!"

Out of the corner of Fumika's eyes, she saw a glowing pink ball floating in midair and knew that it was a Sweets Spirit.

The class murmured about the two girls, however, some people didn't approve, and Group B were displeased with this decision.

"Today we'll be making mille crepes- mille in French means a thousand. Create multiple crepes, spreading the cream on top of each crepe as you layer them. It will create a cake-like pastry. That's how you make it. Well then, please begin." Ameiya said.

As the girls went to their station. Fumika thought, 'Well, this is going to be easy.'

Ichigo's POV

'This is going to be so hard! I've never made mille crepes before." Ichigo silently lamented, staring at the bowl of eggs that were being passed around. 'But, I have to do my best.'

Satsuki Hanabusa, the Candy Prince, passed the bowl of eggs to Ichigo. He smiled, "Do your best, Ichigo-chan!"

Ichigo nods nervously, noticing all the gazes on her with each move she makes. "Uhm... ok."

'I have to do my best.' Ichigo reached out, retrieving an egg. Her shaking hands gripped the egg too tightly, causing the egg to break. Ichigo gasped, sweating furiously. "The egg! What a waste..."

Ichigo looked around, everyone's curious stares on her. "What are you doing?" A deadpan voice asked her. It was Kashino Makoto, the Chocolate Prince.

Ichigo looked down at her hands, face flushing. 'It's really embarrassing to make a mistake in a situation like this.'

Hanabusa gave a gentle smile, "Don't be nervous, Ichigo-chan. There are still a lot of eggs left."

Sennosuke Andou, the Japanese Sweets Prince, looked up from his mixing, "Calm down and try again."

Fumika looked across to Ichigo, "Yeah, it's fine Ichigo. Just take your time."

"Hanabusa-kun, Andou-kun, Fumika-chan... thank you all." Ichigo looked at them with a grateful smile.

"You three, don't bother her. If somebody does something weird, the whole group will be punished for it." Kashino gave a death glare to Ichigo. "I don't want to be dragged down."

"I'm sorry." Ichigo apologized, fidgeting with her hands.

Kashino looked away, back to focusing on his mille crepe. "If you have time to apologize, you should make better pastries."

'Why is he so mean?!' Ichigo huffed. She glanced at him to see him spreading another scoop of batter onto his pan. A look at Andou and Hanabusa showed how professionally they prepared their mille crepes.Fumika was humming and swinging her hips as she poured another layer and spread it.

Ichigo stared, amazed at all of their movements. "Everyone's movements are so fluid and composed." Fumika started spreading the cream gracefully, looking just like how Henri-sensei had looked when he was creating his Angel Cake.

~☆~

Fumika's POV

Fumika laid the 3rd to last layer onto the stack and began to spread another batch of cream as she continued humming.

Fumika sniffed the air and thought she smelled something burning, but shrugged it off, thinking it was just her.

"My mille crepes are done." Kashino informed the teacher. Fumika directed her gaze to Makoto, who was having his tasted by Ameya-sensei.

The class commented on how fast he was and that it looks delicious."Nothing to criticize about the shape and taste. It's flawless, Kashino. You'll be able to open up shop soon." Ameya-sensei complemented.

Kashino only nodded as thanks."Sensei! I'm done." Andou called.

"I'm finished as well." Hanabusa said.

"Hanabusa and Andou have both passed. Amano-san, Nijino-san, Have you both finished yet?" Fumika finished the final preparations on her Mille crepe.

"Sensei, mine is complete!" Fumika shouted, cutting a piece of the mille crepe and pushing it out toward Ameya-sensei, who walked toward her and tasted it.

"This taste... it's dense, creamy, moist flavor with a delightful texture arranged in just one bite. It's like it's exploding in my mouth." Ameya-sensei gasped

The class all murmured with amazement at Fumika's sweets."Thank you very much, Ameya-sensei. My Mille crepes were made with maple-scotch cream and caramelized sugar on top. In French, it's called a Gateau Mille crepe." Fumika explained.

"I'm impressed! Nijino Fumika, pass." Ameya-sensei announced.

~☆~

Ichigo's POV

After Ameya-sensei's review of Fumika's mille crepe, she turned to Ichigo. "Ichigo, are you done with your mille crepe?"

"Um, y-yeah."

Ichigo gulped as Ameya-sensei walked towards her. She was even more nervous after seeing Fumika's excellent performance. Fumika was as new to Saint Marie as Ichigo was, but she seemed to be taking everything into stride, while Ichigo was... well, failing miserably.

"Here..." Ichigo muttered, picking up her plate and showing the mille crepe to Ameya-sensei.

"You're not kidding me, are you?" Ameya-sensei had an expression of disbelief and bewilderment, raking her eyes over the burnt mess of a pastry that Ichigo had made. She tentatively tasted it, and turned away so that Ichigo could not see her face.

"I'm sorry." Ichigo mumbled, looking at her group's finished products and comparing them with hers. 'There really is a big difference.'

Ameya-sensei wiped her mouth, picking up her pen and scribbling on her board. "Group A, minus ten points."

Ichigo couldn't help but notice Kashino's look of horror. Ichigo's heart sank, guilt overtaking her. Not only was there the guilt, there was also the humiliation of failure. Her classmates murmured to themselves, but unlike when Fumika showed her creation, they had looks of confusion and disapproval.

Ichigo felt her face and the tips of her ears burn. She wished she could just disappear.

~☆~

Fumika's POV

Fumika's face was filled with disbelief and confusion, finally understanding where the burnt smell originated from.

"Umm... I've never made mille crepes before. More like, I-I'm a complete beginner at making pastries!" Ichigo confessed, gripping her skirt.

The whole class gasped with surprised and Fumika face was filled with complete shock."Well, not only is she a klutz, she's an absolute beginner." Galexi huffed.

"Oh my! I can't believe it! Why did Henri-sensei recommend her?" Cream exclaimed

Fumika watched as Kashino berated Ichigo, each sentence seemingly becoming harsher and harsher than the last.

Ichigo felt tears running down her face as she ran out of the room. Fumika shook her head, making a mental note to tell Henri later.

Fumika sat in the cafeteria with the Sweets Princes, eating her food as Rumi asked her classmates if they had seen Ichigo.

They all replied that they hadn't seen her. "Where could she have gone?" Andou asked.

"That was really harsh for a transfer students first day. I pity her. I wonder if she's okay." Hanabusa stated, concerned.

"Hanabusa's right."

"See even Fumika-"

"However." Fumika interrupted." She need to stop being naive. She can't just expect to become a patissiere taking baby steps. She better learn fast or else, she really is a lost cause."

~☆~

Ichigo's POV

Ichigo sniffled, watching the bus pass by her. She had never been a source of pride in her family, and she had hoped that going to Saint Marie would change all that. However, it seemed that that was not the case. She wanted to make her grandmother proud in heaven, especially since she was such a large figure in her life.

It seemed like it was hopeless, after all.

No.

She couldn't quit now. Henri-sensei had given her such a great opportunity and she was not going to let it go to waste. Ichigo stood up from the bus bench, taking off her blazer to cover herself as she ran back to the school.

'I'll be the greatest patissiere that ever lived, grandma! I won't let you down.'
