Violet | Pentagon Fluffs/ Imagines

Flower Shop | Yuto Pt. 2

For some reason, everywhere you went you kept seeing that awkward Japanese guy.

You'd see him walking across the street. You'd see him at the mall. You'd see him at the library.

One weekend, you went to the park. You were sitting on the grass, messing with a patch of yellow daises next to you, trying to make a flower crown with them. Then you saw him.

And he saw you this time.

You got up and began walking the other way.

"Hey! Wait!" He called bewildered.

You walked faster.

"Wait! Please!" You could hear him running to catch up with you.

You sighed, turning around. "What?" you yelled, stopping him in his tracks.

"Hello..." he said, unsure why he called you himself. "I just... I -aaah!"

Suddenly, a cute fluffy white puppy ran up towards Yuto and jumped on him.

"Ella..." he said, smiling and picking up the dog, holding it in his arms.

Oh no, he looks cuter. You shook your head and banished the thought.

Meanwhile, Yuto was still trying to think of what to say.

"You can pet her if you want," he suddenly suggested.

"Uh... ok," you said. You reached your left hand out to pet Ella. Yuto then noticed the flower crown in your right hand.

"Omg uwu," he said. You followed where he was looking at your flower crown. "Can I wear it?"

"Sure..." you said handing him the crown that he proudly placed on top of his head, trading it for Ella who now rested sleepily in your arms.

"I... I thought you didn't like flowers," you stated.

"What- no- I don't like...? Flowers? I don't not like-" He sighed, taking a breath and starting over. "I like flowers," he finally got out.

"Oh..." Maybe I got the wrong idea of him, you thought. Maybe he's just really awkward.

You were absentmindedly petting Ella and asked, "So... is this your dog?"

"Oh no, it's my band member's. I was just watching her."

Shoot, he's in a band. That's hot.

"That's cool," you said, trying to act nonchalant.

"Thanks," Yuto said, smiling shyly. "Not a lot of people know about us... You should come to our show this weekend."

You thought about it for a second, considering Yuto and your interactions with him so far. His intense stare and towering height made him seem intimidating, and his reserved nature had led you to believe he was close minded. But you were beginning to learn that his appearance didn't completely match who he was on the inside. You wanted to learn more about who he really was.

You decided to give his band a chance.

That Friday, you saw him and his group, Pentagon, perform. You loved their music, surprised that they didn't have more fans, and you realized that Yuto was actually a really talented rapper.

He kept inviting you to shows and you kept coming to see him. You learned more and more about him- just how much he loved music- writing his own lyrics, working on his mix tape, and his passion for dancing.

You'd still see him all the time outside of concerts, but now, you didn't mind. Sometimes he's actually visit your shop while you were working.

One day, he was unusually talkative, asking about the different meanings behind flowers.
