Coffee Cup Connection (Neji x Reader)

In a cozy little coffee shop, nestled on a quiet street, there was a barista named Yn who had a not-so-secret crush on her favorite customer, Neji. Neji was a regular, and he came in every morning like clockwork. He ordered his usual cappuccino and sat at the same corner table, quietly reading a book.

Yn admired Neji from behind the counter as she prepared his coffee each day. She couldn't summon the courage to strike up a conversation, so she devised a playful plan to get his attention. Every morning, she wrote a different cheesy and slightly cringe-worthy pick-up line on his coffee cup.

One day, she scribbled, "Are you a ninja? Because you've stolen my heart." Neji, being the composed and unflappable man he was, would simply chuckle to himself and go about his business. He never reacted strongly to her lines, but he couldn't deny that they brightened his mornings.

Another morning, Yn wrote, "Is your byakugan active? Because you see right through me." Neji would raise an eyebrow in amusement but wouldn't say a word. He appreciated the effort she put into making his daily routine a little more interesting.

As the days turned into weeks, Yn continued her creative pick-up lines. "Are you an arrow? Because you've pierced my soul," she wrote one day. Neji's lips would twitch in a faint smile.

Despite Yn's attempts, Neji remained a man of few words. He never mentioned the pick-up lines or initiated a conversation with her, but he kept coming back to the coffee shop. Yn, however, was determined to keep trying, convinced that one day her quirky lines might just work their magic.

And so, the coffee shop love story continued, one cup and one pick-up line at a time, as Yn's hope grew with every morning Neji walked through the door.

Yn couldn't help but feel a pang of doubt as the weeks turned into months. She started to wonder if perhaps Neji wasn't interested in her, and her daily pick-up lines were nothing more than a source of amusement for him. She had grown quite fond of him, and the thought of him not reciprocating her feelings left her feeling a bit disheartened.

However, little did Yn know that Neji was not as uninterested as he appeared. In fact, he was quite the opposite. Neji was a man of few words, but he had a reserved nature that often made him appear distant and aloof, even when he was anything but.

Neji found Yn's pick-up lines endearing and admired her creativity and persistence. He had developed a crush on her as well, but he was plagued by nervousness and uncertainty. He worried that if he tried to talk to her, he might say something wrong or embarrass himself. As a result, he chose to admire her from a distance, believing it was the safer option.

In his heart, Neji longed to strike up a conversation with Yn, to get to know her better, and to let her know that he was interested in more than just the coffee and pick-up lines. But the fear of rejection and the pressure of being the one to initiate the conversation held him back.

The coffee shop love story had reached an impasse. Both Yn and Neji were pining for each other, each convinced that the other was not interested, while in reality, they were both simply too nervous to take the first step.

It seemed like their story was stuck in a never-ending loop of pick-up lines and silent glances, but little did they know that destiny had a way of working its magic when it was least expected.

~TIME SKIP~

One day, Yn was busy behind the counter at the coffee shop when her friend Tenten walked in. Tenten had a mischievous glint in her eye as she approached Yn.

"Hey, Yn, I have a proposition for you," Tenten said with a sly grin.

Yn was curious. "What's up, Tenten?"

Tenten leaned in and whispered, "I have a friend who's perfect for you, and I want to set you up on a blind date. Trust me; you're going to like him."

Yn was taken aback by this unexpected offer. She hesitated for a moment, her mind racing. Tenten's mysterious friend piqued her interest, and she decided to go along with it.

"Okay, Tenten, I'm in," Yn replied with a sense of excitement.

Tenten gave her a reassuring nod and set up a date for the weekend, without revealing her friend's identity. Yn had no idea who the mystery man was, but she was eager to find out.

When the day of the blind date arrived, Yn arrived at the agreed-upon location, a quaint little restaurant, with a mix of excitement and nervousness. She waited anxiously, wondering who this person could be.

As she sat at the table, her heart skipped a beat when a familiar figure walked in. It was Neji, the man she had been secretly admiring for months. She couldn't believe her eyes. Neji also seemed equally surprised to see her.

Tenten had kept the secret from both of them, and they were now face to face, realizing the blind date had brought them together in an unexpected twist of fate.

Awkwardly, they both broke into smiles, their nervousness slowly melting away. The evening went better than either of them could have expected. They talked, laughed, and shared stories, discovering they had more in common than they ever knew.

As the night went on, they grew closer, and Neji finally found the courage to admit, "I've been coming to your coffee shop for months, and I've been admiring you from afar. Those pick-up lines on my coffee cup? I thought they were charming."

Yn blushed, admitting, "I've been writing those lines, hoping you'd notice. I never thought it would lead to this."

Their connection grew stronger as the evening turned into night, and they both realized that sometimes, the most unexpected situations could bring two people together. The blind date that had been orchestrated by Tenten had serendipitously united Yn and Neji, and it was a moment they would cherish for the rest of their lives.
