Batteries (Modern AU)

You hate your job.

Badly.

But that didn't stop you from still showing up and doing what you're expected to do. The only reason why you still come here is because your best friend begged you for days straight and wouldn't leave you alone about it.

Working as a cashier at your local gas station isn't the job you've been looking for, but hey, money is money. Especially when you're in college. But on the bright side, you aren't alone. You have Itou, who's currently flirting with some random customer and holding up a line.

"Kuramoto, stop scaring the poor customer," you teased. He rolled his eyes that seemed to always be shut and handed the customer their receipt, turning to face you once the next person came up and put their items on the counter.

"You're just mad because I beat you in 8-ball," he said with a short laugh.

You threw him a glare and he jumped up in his spot, pretending to be effected by the look you gave him. "Pay attention to what's in front of you, you have a whole line of people waiting," you pointed out. When he saw that you're right about a line of people, he quickly apologized.

You rolled your eyes with a tongue click and turned your head to meet eyes with a guy with shoulder length black hair. When you noticed him staring at you, you lifted an eyebrow and squinted. "Can I help you?"

He chuckled and shook his head. "You look very familiar. Have I seen you somewhere? Maybe on T.V?"

You scoffed and put your elbow on the table, resting your slightly pounding head on your hands. "Hilarious. Did you even buy anything, or are you here to just waste time?"

He gave you a short smile and lifted his arms onto the counter, dropping a bunch of double A batteries. "Of course I came here to buy something. Who do you think I am?" he laughed.

"I don't know, Mr. Refreshing?" you shrugged with amusement in your voice. He snickered and began to take the batteries out their packs and started to rearrange them, not even caring that he's holding people up.

Out of pure confusion, you watched him make some words with the batteries, all with a strange growing smirk on his beautiful face. You weren't the only one watching and you definitely weren't complaining.

When he finished, he stepped back with a proud grin and held his hands at his hips, looking down at his creation. You, along with the customers and Itou looked down afterwards and all gasped at the message.

'I JUST WASTED YOUR TIME'

He pushed the batteries out the way with his arm and leaned on the counter, grabbing your chin and forcing you to look into his eyes. "I just wasted your time now, but I won't later if you go on a date with me."

Everyone around you started to clap and cheer for his smooth and maybe stupid way of asking you out. You didn't know this guy, but you can already tell that the two of you will go places in the near future.
