And You Disappeared (K Project X Reader)

9: Cake and Sweet Smiles

Your P.o.v.

"Are you alright?" I would have answered the sweet and concerned question right away but I was too focused on the appearance of the boy who had defended me. If I was to be blunt I would have to say he was cute...really cute. But not in a model-in-a-movie kind of way, he was cute in a adorable puppy kind of way. He was a male teenager of average height with messy, white hair and amber colored eyes almost like Mikoto's. He wore a long-sleeved white shirt and instead of a normal tie or bow tie around his neck he wore a red, untied ribbon around his neck with a black, high collared jacket that had a golden pin attached to the left side. He also wore matching pant's that he kept rolled up above his ankles along with brown shoes and in his hands he held the maroon colored umbrella he used to hit the perverted man in front of me. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even notice that the white-haired boy was now standing right in front of me, looking down at my small outline with concern. "O-oh..." I trail off, my mind still trying to comprehend what had just happened a few seconds ago and as soon as it hits me I immediately bow. "oh...oh! Y-yes I'm fine, thanks to you Mr....?" I trail off and wrinkle my nose, trying to remember if I had thanked him correctly, I was new to this manners thing. The white-haired boy smiled and held his hand out "Isana. Isana Yashiro but you can just call me Shiro" he said sweetly making me stand up straight and shake his hand while I have him a wide smile of my own. "...(L/n) (Y/n) but you can call me (Y/n)~!" I smile, happy that I came up with a last name as quick as I did but after I introduced myself I noticed that a light pink was dusting across Yashiro's cheeks. I tilted my head slightly and pursed my lips in question and in response he closed his eyes and chuckled before pointing at our hands that were still locked together. "O-oops! Hehe" I giggle nervously as I quickly let go of his hand and put both of mine behind my back as Yashiro rubbed the back of his neck as he laughed. His laugh was soothing and cheerful and it made cover my mouth as I giggled quietly to myself but just as I was about to say something I was interrupted by someone tapping on my shoulder. I turned around but quickly regretted it upon seeing a dark, agitated Kyouya. My (e/c) eyes trail from the teen groaning on the floor to Kyouya and then back to the teen again before sucking in a deep breath and pointing at the scene "I have an explanation" I mumble. Kyouya looked at the fallen boy, then at me before pushing up his glasses and quietly walking towards the male only to grab his hair and drag him towards the door but not before stopping in front of me. "Next time get Mr. Michaels or Mr. Naruka to help you instead of destroying my café, understand?" "y-yes sir" I mumble as I stare down at my (f/c) (shoes). Then with a sigh Kyouya continued to drag the still groaning teenager out of the café leaving me with the urge to groan and walk back to the bar in defeat. I couldn't believe I thought this day would go picture purrfect (HAHAHA!... Someone shoot me). I look to the side to see that everyone was going back to their jobs, except Gou who was taking pictures of boys in the café for some unknown reason. Just as I'm about to go back to my own job I turn around and bow one more time towards the white-haired male in front of me. "Thank you again, Shiro" I smile, as I stand up straight once more "I just wish there was some way I could repay you..." I trail off, pushing my bottom lip out in a pout as I thought over some options. But I'm quickly pulled out of my thoughts by Yashiro speaking up "Well I think you can~!" he smiled "I came here by myself and I would love to have company" he said as he pointed to an abandoned table "that is, if you want to". A wide smile appears on my lips at the offer and I could hear myself squeal happily as clapped my hands together "of course~!" I cheer, happy that I got a chance to spend time with a potential new friend. It would make my day to make a friend outside of HOMRA. "Great!" Shiro smiled and before I knew it he had his arm held out for me to take making me giggle as I gladly took it and he led me over to the table, pulling out my chair for me and pushing it in as well as soon as Ii sat down. "T-thank you" Ii stutter quietly as I smile widely at Shiro who sat down across from me, leaning his maroon umbrella against his chair just before reaching up give the small pink cat on his shoulder a pat on the head but as I looked closer I noticed something. The cat was unusually small even for a kitten. It almost seemed as if she was...my size when I was in my second form but aside from the looks of the cute cat, a certain smell came from it too making my nose twitch. But I couldn't put my finger on whether it was a strain or just a normal cat. "Ah~! (Y/n)-chan! Who's this?" a cheery voice squealed in my ear and I jumped back to see that it was none other than Elizabeth who was smiling from ear to ear as she stared at me and the sweet boy who sat across from me. "Oh, this is my new friend Shiro!" I chirp "we actually just met..." I trail off and glance at Yashiro who was smiling brightly at both me and Elizabeth making me look down as a light pinkness spread across my cheeks. Wait...what!? Why were my cheeks getting hot and my brain refusing to work? It was just like with Yata and Mikoto..."Aww~! You two look so cute!" Elizabeth squealed, pulling me out of my thoughts and making my cheeks heat up even more. "Oh! Oh! I'll get you guys something to eat!" Elizabeth smiled, her blue eyes sparkling with excitement but before she could run off Shiro waved her over and whispered something in her ear. The blonde smiled and nodded her head before running to the kitchen leaving me, staring down nervously in my lap as I scratched at the soft material of my skirt. A small laugh causes me to look up with a small blush on my cheeks as I stared at Shiro who was staring right back at me while glancing ever so often at something he was scribbling something on a piece of paper. I leaned forward, standing up out of my seat a little to get a better glimpse of what it was with curiosity until I couldn't hold my tongue any longer. "Can I see?" I ask shyly, reaching up to put a strand of my (h/l) (h/c) hair behind my ear. Shiro seemed to scribble faster on the paper making me tilt my head but my question was soon answered by him smiling and handing me the paper, which I carefully take out of his hands and into mine. As soon as my eyes land on the paper they widen in surprise and I couldn't help the huge smile that made it's way onto my features along with the dark blush. It was a sketch. A very good sketch and it was of me. I was smiling and staring out the window we sat next to with my hand on my cheek and my (f/c) collar shining in the afternoon sunlight. "It's beautiful~!" I squeal "I can't believe you did this! And so fast!" I say excitedly, looking up to see Shiro was scratching the back of his head sheepishly while his cheeks were dusted a light pink (I think Shiro might be a really good artist xD). "T-thank you" he smiled but before I could praise his drawing anymore the sound of a cheery voice along with plates clattering on the table brought my attention elsewhere "food!" Elizabeth yelled happily as she set down two plates that each had a piece of the most delicious, perfect cake I had ever seen in my whole nine lives. They were both cut in what seemed like perfect squares that had decorative swirls and patterns made of pearl white icing and to top it all off, a big red strawberry was placed perfectly in the middle with shaved chocolate surrounding it. I could feel myself squirm in my seat as I stared wide eyed at the god made treat, hunger stirring in my stomach. "Thank you" Shiro said kindly making Elizabeth giggle as she gave me a thumbs up before skipping away leaving me to clutch my drawing closer to my chest as I smiled nervously at the white-haired male until suddenly a thought came to mind. "Oh! Hold on" I say as I looked in my apron pockets, pulling out a twenty dollar bill and trying to hand it to Shiro but instead of taking it he just laughed and shook his head "I got it" he said sweetly "besides I'm the one who should be overly happy" he smiled, a blush starting to appear on his cheeks "It's not every day I get to eat lunch with a beautiful girl." My cheeks turn a dark red as I laugh quietly, closing my eyes and covering my mouth as I did so, not even realizing that Shiro was blushing more than before upon hearing my laugh. My laugh soon quiets down to a small giggle as I opened my eyes and stared at a blushing Shiro only to show off one of my best smiles "Thank you Shiro~!" I say sweetly before picking up a fork and taking a bite of the sweet treat sitting in front of me and as soon as I did I stared down at it with wide eyes. "God is real."

~Time Skip~

"So you like animals?" "I animals! Especially cats!" I squeal, smiling widely as I answered another one of Shiro's questions. Ever since Shiro invited me to eat with him the two of us have been talking non-stop for what felt like only a couple joyful hours but from the teenagers that walked the streets and the flow of business men returning from work I knew that it had been more than just a couple hours but I didn't worry about it. Just when I thought I would have a bad first day, Shiro came and turned my attitude upside down and I couldn't ask for more. "(Y/n), were closing" I looked up to see Kyouya and tilted my head at his sudden claim "already?" I ask, and he nods, giving me a small smile as he pushed up is glasses. "I'll be expecting to see you here on Monday and on time?" he asked and I laughed nervously as I nodded "y-yes sir" I say making him nod in approval before he patted my shoulder, walking off to yell at Haru who was strangely holding up a bird keychain to a now crying customer. I sigh sadly before smiling and turning to look at Shiro but he was gone. I look around only to jump as I suddenly felt heard a sweet laugh come from beside me and I look up to see a smiling Shiro who had his hand held out to me which I gladly took. "Thank you Shiro" I chirp, taking a strand of my (h/l) (h/c) hair tucking it behind my ear (sorry if you have really, really short hair) as I blushed slightly. "I better get going" I say as I adjust my blouse, fanning myself with my hand as I did so "I don't want to make my family worried" I mumble but I could feel a small appear on my lips as I said that word. Family...I still couldn't believe I could say that again. Shiro's face seemed to fall a bit but he still smiled at me "no, I understand" he said "but...do you think that we could do this again sometime?" he asked hopefully making me giggle as I nodded enthusiastically "of course!" I smile "I'll be working my second day here on Monday!" I say happily. Shiro seemed to light up at this but I noticed his cheeks were becoming a light pink "I'm glad I was able to spend time with you today (Y/n)" he smiled, chuckling nervously at the end of his sentence only making me smile wider but then I remembered something. "Oh...you probably want this back" I say, handing Shiro the beautiful drawing that he did early but to my surprise he smiled and shook his head. "Keep it, its yours" he said and my eyes sparkled with joy "really!? Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" I squeal and envelop the sweet male in a tight hug, not noticing the dark blush that covered his cheeks as he hesitantly hugged me back making me smile even wider. But my attention was soon captured by the sound of the café bell ringing and a cheery voice ringing throughout the store. "(Y/n)-chan~?" "Ah~! Tatara~!" I say happily, letting go of Shiro to run over and greet the smiling male who's brown eyes looked at me to Shiro then back to me again. "Ready to go?" he asked and I nodded quickly only to hold up my finger "just one last thing" I whisper before rushing back over to Shiro, giving him a big hug and pressing my lips to his cheek quickly before letting go and waving "bye Shiro~!" I call out watching as the stunned boy smiled wider than ever and waved back "bye (Y/n)~!" he called back. I grabbed on to Tatara's hand as he chuckled under his breath and lead me out of the store only more to look back and give Shiro one last smile before turning my attention to the sidewalk in front of me. But even as I walked and realized how tiring working was...I couldn't help but look forward to Monday.
