Torn (Book 2)

"It's a horrible day for rain." "It's not raining, Colonel."

Y/N POV

I put the framed photo in my backpack, then sit down at the table.

"So...you two knew each other in the past?" Tokoyami asks, sitting down.

"That's a story for a different time. Anyway, why are you here Hawks?" I ask, glancing at Hawks.

"Merchandise. I have none. But...you probably have already noticed..." Hawks says to me and Tokoyami.

"I was curious. So, yes, I did see...for someone whose as popular as you say you are, having no merchandise was kind of surprising," I say, taking a sip of my drink.

I then mumble,
"Guess you're not as popular as you say you are."

"Hey!" Hawks exclaims.

I snicker.

Hawks clears his throat,
"Anyway. Y/N, I hear you're good at making well-made, cheap merchandise?"

I nod,
"Who did you hear that from?"

"A...person I know," Hawks says, vaguely.

I hum,
"Well, Okay then...I'll find out some...other...way. You want to me make you merchandise?"

Hawks nods,
"Yes. Could you?"

"I already have samples. I had a feeling you'd ask, so I made some," I state.

Hawks' eyes widen,
"How...?"

"Don't worry about it. Be right back," I say, getting and get the boxes.

"Okay. First off, food. Snack food. Hawks Red Licorice and Tsukuyomi Black Licorice...I also made keychains of each."

They stare at the bags and keychains.

"Why me too?" Tokoyami asks.

"Because I wanted to make some for my friends."

"...friends?" Hawks questions,
"Aren't you two dating?"
