You and Hinata stand side by side in the middle of the balcony of the apartment complex after you pull back from the kiss. Part of you is so deep in shock you aren't sure if he's really there or if you're just seeing things.
"Y/N," he calls softly as he reaches toward your hand. You look at him blankly as you watch him bend down on one knee. "Will you come away with me?"
"Go away with you?" you repeat as your eyebrows knit together curiously. "What do you mean?"
"I mean I want to go somewhere with you. Aruba. Jamaica," he offers.
"Are you serious?" you ask once again, unable to hold back a laugh at his corniness.
"Deadly," he responds as he stands back up. "I want to go somewhere with you, somewhere away from all the crazy stuff in our lives where it can be just you and me for once."
"In that case," you smile at him, "I've always wanted to go to Montego Bay."
"In Jamaica?" he remarks. "I've never been."
"Well then I think that makes it perfect for us," you hum back. But the more your face begins to light up, the sadder Hinata starts to look.
"What's wrong?" you then ask. A stinging pain hits your heart. Have you gotten your hopes up too fast?
"I'm really glad you want to go with me, Y/N, but I'm also really sorry about what I said to you last week before I left. My boss made me feel as though I had to stay in California, for the convention and after, for the sake of my own career. But even so, I realized that I didn't want to move. I didn't want to be anywhere that you weren't."
"It's okay," you assure him. "I get it. I was pretty sad that you had left but I'm really glad you decided to come back."
"Is that why you reek of Tequila and weed?" he chuckles.
"Can you blame her?" another voice asks from a little ways behind you. When you turn around, you see your friends leaning against the doorway, watching you both with smiles on their faces.
"Not really," he admits. "Thanks for the tip, Noha."
"Tip?" you ask as you look between the two of them. Faye looks equally as confused.
"Yeah, well, Hinata sent me a message saying he was coming back and so I told him where you'd be. That's all," she shrugs.
"Thanks, Noha," you nod to her.
"Don't mention it," she hums as she puts the bottle of tequila to her lips. "So, do you two love birds want to come inside before you go on your little honeymoon getaway?"
You look over at Hinata who smiles as he takes your hand in his. "Sure, as long as Y/N wants to."
"Mm, how could I say no?" you grin.
A few minutes after you and Hinata walk inside, the four of you sit on the rug in the middle of the main room. Faye has devised a drinking game that she hasn't explained yet.
