Tattooed Flowers (kagehina au)

The visit

Kageyama POV

It's 11:30 and I'm hella nervous. I get to go see Hinata now, I clock out and walk across the street still in work attire of course. I open the door of the shop and the music is amazing. Right now I think Green Day was playing and I could hear a minor buzzing from tattoo machines coming from the rooms and I walk up to the front desk. Greeted by a very short boy looked like he had to be in high school with a bleached streak he was doodling tattoo designs in a sketch book.

I clear my throat to get his attention and he looks up at me. "Hello! Welcome to Karasuno Tats! How may I help you?" He says with a smile on his face. "I'm here to see Hinata..?" I say nervously not knowing exactly what to say. His face lights up "oh! So your cute flower boy then?" My face goes a bright pink. "D-did he call me that..?" The boy nods his head aggressively. "Wouldn't stop jabbering this morning here I'll call into the room to let him know your here. He's in room 04" he winked at me and I started heading to the door with the label 04 Shoyo.

Shoyo huh? I look over to the desk and he gives me a thumbs up and I walk in and see him grabbing another color to put on his clients rose tattoo. He looks so focused. He has his hair pulled into a small ponytail and his bangs are clipped up.

He looks over at me and smiles "come in! Here have a seat." He had an extra chair in the room placed pretty much next to him just out of his way and in a safe sanitized distance. I sit down and watch as he puts the red ink on the tattoo. It's not even done but it will be gorgeous when it is. Hell it already is. He breaks the awkward silence and knocks me out of my thoughts and checking him out. "Soooo.. how was your morning at work?" He says casually still focused.

I blush and look away for a moment before responding "it was pretty good it wasn't too busy, and Suga was in a great mood so he told me he'd take over the shop for the rest of the day. Daichi must've bought him his favorite coffee this morning." He chuckled. "Yep he sure did! You wouldn't believe how happy he gets when Daichi does that. I can't believe Daichi hasn't popped the question yet." He says still filling in the same rose petal.

I chuckle "that's for sure.. so uh- how long have you been tattooing?" I ask him desperate for a conversation. He smiles and continues filling in the rose. "7 years technically. 4 with a license. For the first year I just did fake skin and fruit but I didn't want to wait for my license so I started in my basement" he finished the petal he was working on and moved to the last one. "How long have you been a flower boy?" He says with a smirk. "H-hey I needed a job for money for my studies and Suga was in highschool with my cousin and became part of the family. He offered me the job when he opened shop. So 5 years..?" I say trying to do mental math but failing and just sticking with it.

He finishes the tattoo and puts the protective wrap around it and starts to clean up his work station. "My 12:30 actually canceled on me today so I'm off for the day. Want to go do something fun?" He says turning around smiling at me. My face flushes a bright red and his client looks at me and chuckles getting up leaving to go pay at the desk. "Thanks again Shoyo! Have fun on your date!" She says as she closes the door and I flush even darker. "S-sounds fun.. what do you have in mind..?" I ask trying to calm myself down.

He finishes cleaning up his work station and unclips his bangs leaving his hair tied up in the back walking over to the door signaling me to follow him. He waved at the boy at the desk and opened the door for me. "We could go to the zoo, amusement park, movies, park, anything you want Kageyama!" He said with a bright bright smile that could blind me. I blush and say "t-the park will be fine.. h-have you eaten..?" I ask him shyly. He starts walking toward the local restaurant. "Nope! That's the first stop! Have you eaten?" He asks me as I start to speed up to match his pace. Damn for such a tiny person he's sure fast. "No not yet." I reply after I finally catch up. "Well then let's go Kageyama my treat!" He smiles wider and brighter than before?? How??? I follow him to the restaurant with a light pink flush on my face.
