Requested by Ploopy666, thank youuuuuu

This'll probably be a bit short and slow at the beginning, I'm not great at writing Natsuki so bear with me lmao

* * * * *

You didn't know how you managed to convince Natsuki to pick flowers with you. You didn't know how you even convinced her to hang out with you over the weekend. But it happened, you were here, and you couldn't believe that she'd been willing to spend time with you outside of school.

"Thank you again for coming, Natsuki," you called to her over your shoulder, smiling brightly. "Today's gonna be really fun!!"

She looked away, effectively hiding her face. "Yeah, yeah, whatever..."

When you'd asked her to go with you, Natsuki had insisted that the only reason she was coming was because she had no plans for the weekend and knew she was going to be bored. Not to "make you happy, or something stupid like that". It was really easy to tell when she was lying, but you didn't comment on that. You were just glad that she said yes.

Everyone else in the club had teased you about this being a date, and maybe that was why Natsuki had gotten so defensive– which had held up all the way till you'd arrived. Hopefully she'd relax a little once you got further away from the general public.

Regardless of how you felt about flower-picking, it struck you as the kind of activity that she'd like, even if she wouldn't say it out loud. It was the perfect balance of cuteness, calmness and serenity. Maybe even exploration depending on what mood you were in.

"Y/N, slow down a little," Natsuki exclaimed from behind you. "Geez..."

"Just get longer legs," you teased in response, and promptly regretted it when she came after you with a branch. After begging for forgiveness, Natsuki just huffed indignantly and crossed her arms. 

Worried that you actually offended her, you made it your personal mission to find her a flower she'd like.

You weren't the best at color theory, so you weren't entirely sure what you should choose. Wasn't green complimentary to pink? That might go with her hair, but you didn't see any green flowers around you and you sure as hell weren't about to give her a piece of grass.

...Maybe blue? Or just another shade of pink? Hm...

"Y/N? Where are you going?"

Natsuki's voice broke you out of your trance, and you jumped back up. "Hmm? What?"

"You're wandering away from the actual good flowers," she said, pointing in a different direction. "There's a bunch of good ones over there!! You just missed them 'cause you were too busy spacing out."

"Well, maybe I just left them for you," you joked as you made your way back towards her.

"Shut up."

The hills she was pointing at were actually a lot better than the field you were on currently. You excitedly jogged over to get a better view.

"Oh, wow," you breathed, excitedly hurrying to inspect the flowers closer. "These are gorgeous."

You were so close to saying "kinda like you", but stopped yourself at the last second. That was... a little too direct. For now, anyway.

"You're such a nerd," Natsuki sighed as she followed behind you, kneeling down to pluck a flower you couldn't see. "I don't know anyone who gets so excited about flowers."

Again, you refrained from saying that she seemed pretty hyped about going flower picking, and instead opted to go with, "What, are you saying you don't know me?"
