Ｔｈｅ Ｓｕｎ Ａｎｄ Ｔｈｅ Ｆｌｏｗｅｒ (Hinata Shoyo x Reader)

Ch.2 Meetings

■Hinata's POV■

I'm at a certain cafe not far from a bus stop in a district, nervously sitting next to the window glass, looking out at the street from the second floor. Just then my eyes caught a woman crossing the street, heading to this cafe, the person that I've been waiting for 30 minutes already because I came too early. I wait and in two minutes, that woman has climbed the stairs and walks to where I sit.

Y/N: good afternoon Hinata san... have you waited long?

I get up from my seat and greet her back.

Hinata: no... no I've just arrived too hahaha...

You literally came too early Shoyo...

L/N gives me a relieved smile.

Y/N: thank goodness... 

I swear though I've seen so many beautiful women in my life such as Kiyoko san, and Yachi, L/N could make me act as I've just seen a pretty girl for the first time in my life. Her smile is so bright and pretty, just like a daisy. Her scent radiates a sweet flowery smell too.

We sit and the waiter comes to take our order, we both choose what we want and then the waiter left, leaving us two alone again. When I look at L/N, I realize there's a white powder on one of her blue sleeves. I pull out wet tissues from my bag and hands it to her, making her look at me, confused.

Hinata: L/N, you got some stain... uh powder? on your sleeve...

Y/N: eeh?

L/N immediately looks at her sleeve, moving her arm around to look for it.

Cute...

Y/N: ah... how embarrassing... um, thank you Hinata san, I'll take one tissue...

A red streak appearing across her cheeks, making her look even more adorable.

Stop staring Hinata Shoyo!

I slap myself mentally and decided to start a conversation.

Hinata: do you have enough tissue? need more?

Y/N: ah, no thank you... it's enough.... it's probably from the shop...

Hinata: shop?

L/N excuses herself for a sec to throw the tissue in the bin at the corner of the room before returning to sit in front of me.

Y/N: ah yes... my family runs a mochi shop... it's been since my great grand father's generation hehe... now, my mother and I run it together...

Just her mother and her?

Hinata: ah, I'm sorry... uh your father?

L/N smiles gently.

Y/N: my father passed away six years ago...

Why did you need to ask?

Hinata: I'm so sorry L/N!

Y/N: ah no, it's alright... it's been a while too...

L/N tells me that she runs the shop with her mother and two workers. The shop is connected to her house and it's in a district only on stop from here.

Hinata: that's amazing... 

Y/N: not really... mother can make good mochi but I still have a long way to go.... um what about you Hinata san?

L/N stares at me with her big (e/c) eyes, and my heart is beating a slight bit faster.

I told you to stop staring, myself! Bad me... bad Hinata Shoyo...

Hinata: I uh... I'm a volleyball player...
