Atsumu greeted Hinata with a little peck on his cheek and handed him a daisy that he had bought on his way. "You look lovely, Shōyō-kun."

Hinata couldn't help but wonder if Atsumu was lying because he was wearing his usual outfit; a pair of trousers, a shirt and a cardigan over it, and there was barely anything standing out about him. He blushed nonetheless and thanked the man. "You look pretty too, Atsumu-san."

Atsumu was dressed quite handsomely. He always looked sharp in his work suits; however, today he was carrying a rather casual look. It suited him well. "Pretty, you say?" Atsumu chuckled. "Thank you."

"Where are we going?"

"Starbucks." Atsumu replied. "To keep my promise. They have those frappuccinos that you liked so dearly." He put his hand out for Hinata, smilingly. Hinata took his hand giddly, absolutely impressed by the older man. The walk to the nearest Starbucks from the station was a good ten minutes. The redhead was trying to contain his excitement for his first date in quite a while.

They reached the infamous cafe pretty soon and Atsumu opened the door for Hinata like a chivalrous man. After fussing over the menu for a couple of minutes, the boy ended up ordering the coffee jelly and vanilla frappe for himself and Atsumu got himself the matcha tea latte.

Hinata was a bit bummed that Atsumu did not let him pay for himself, but he soon got over it when Atsumu cracked a joke about him trying to summon Saiki with the coffee jelly. "Ah, you've watched it?"

"Why, yes! I love that series." Atsumu mumbled against his straw. "He's cool."

"So very cool!" Shōyō agreed enthusiastically. "Also, why'd you get matcha latte? Isn't it basic?"

"I quite like matcha, Shōyō-kun. It's pretty good with the mochi. Do you not like it?" Atsumu questioned in a curious tone, he smiled to himself when he noticed how Hinata was still holding his flower.

The younger lad shrugged. "I like it. It's good." He took a loud sip of his drink, quietly humming at the good taste. "I like these so much. Thank you for introducing them to me."

Atsumu elbowed him teasingly and cackled. "Ya don't have to be so formal with me, Shōyō-kun. We'll do everything you like."

"Then what about you? Won't it be a less fun date for you if we keep doing my things?" Hinata smiled knowingly at the older man.

Atsumu shrugged nonchalantly. "Anything with you is fun." He sent a cheeky wink before chuckling softly.

"I'm flattered, Atsumu-san. Likewise." Hinata replied in a heartbeat, unconsciously, gravitating closer to Atsumu. There was no lie because he had always loved hanging around Atsumu.
