Genre : Fluff Summary : Watching the cherry blossoms fall is your special thing. (Inspired by the movie 5 centimeters per second)
(Woojin's POV)
Flashback
I was running with Y/N along the streets. It was a simple day of spring. We were 8. Or maybe 9. We were young and tired of staying inside because of our seasonal allergies. We were laughing a lot. I remember well something that she told me that day.
« They say it's five centimeters per second. - Huh ? What is ? - The speed at which cherry blossoms fall. It's five centimeters per second. »
I chuckled.
« You sure know a lot of stuff like that, Y/N. - Say... don't you think it kinda looks like snow ? - I guess... »
She started running faster. I followed her.
« It'd be great if we could watch the cherry blossoms fall again together next year... »
Though we never did. Soon after, she moved because of her father's job. And we never see each other again.

« I told you Jisung, I don't want to go »
I sighed for the thousand times. Today was the spring festival, one of the biggest festival of the year. Jisung and the rest of the boys really wanted to go there. I didn't find any good reasons to go instead of staying at home watching series. On top of that, I knew that my allergies would annoy me.
« Come on Woojin it could not be that bad and you need to go outside a little, your allergies are not an excuse for you to spend your entire spring at home. I know you love watching the cherry blossoms anyway »
I thought about it. It could bring back some good memories.
« Okay let's go »

As we arrived there, so many people were already enjoying themselves at the festival. Some were eating ice cream or cotton candy, others were singing or dancing in the streets with a smile on their face. It's not that bad after all.
Jisung dragged me to the place where people were watching the cherry blossoms falling. It was beautiful.
« Aaaatchooo »
I turned to see who had just sneezed because hey allergies buddy. I turned and saw a group of people and I noticed the girl who had sneezed. I immediately felt weird. Like... familiar. She was wearing a white dress and had beautiful wavy hair. She was wearing a crown of flowers in her hair which was probably the cause of her sneeze. It... it couldn't be... her... right ?
Jisung noticed me starring at this girl and started to tease me.
« Come on Woo just go talk to her »
I needed to know. I needed to know if it was her. Maybe I was wrong but something was telling me that I was thinking rightly.
I approached her and tapped slightly her shoulder. She turned around and our eyes locked. She stopped smiling like she had recognized me too.
« Woo-woojin ? »
I just stood there shocked. And so she did. She did grow a lot since elementary school. I could tell that she was still the same though. She still had band-aid everywhere on her arms and legs because of falling too much. She still chose the funniest ones though. Her hair was still a mess because of being too lazy to tied it up but it still looked good anyway. Her perfect smile was still the same even though her teeth were now perfectly aligned. And her eyes. They still looked at me with the same purity as before.
« It's been a while Y/N »
She smiled even brighter, now sure that it was me. She run to me and hugged me, taking me by surprise.
« Wow I missed you idiot »
I chuckled and hugged her back. A new feeling in my stomach growing.
« You still love watching the cherry blossoms fall as I see - It was less pretty without you though... »
She answered sadly. We locked eyes again and I get lost inside hers.
« You wanna know something funny ? »
She tilted her head slightly.
« It's five centimeters per second »
Her eyes widened. She then closed them while smiling and pulled me closer.
« You remember »
We stayed like this for a while before I pulled away and dragged her closer to the trees by her hand.
« It still looks like snow though »
I looked at her and then back at the cherry blossoms. The feeling in my stomach didn't seem to go away as I was feeling the happier I could get at that moment. Watching the cherry blossoms fall while holding Y/N's hand. Everything was perfect until...
« Aaaatttcchoooo »
Blasted allergies.

Okay guys I'm so sorry for the sudden hiatus ugh.
This story was inspired by 5 centimeters per second and I highly recommend this movie because it's so damn beautiful and the song « one more time one more chance » is one of my favorite on earth. Funny fact but I'm also allergic to the flowers and stuff like that even though (just by my username) you could tell that I really love the cherry blossoms.
Also I am you was so great like I was not expecting less but still, Stray Kids are always slaying.
