You yawned and stretched your arms above your head as you walked off your train. You raised the volume in your headphones to tone out the loud voices of the trains and everyone around you. Looking up at the train times, you discover your train had been delayed by 30 minutes.

Sighing to yourself, you pushed your (H/C) hair behind your ear, putting your hands in the pockets of your sweats as you made way to the underground mall. Might as well get some shopping done while I wait.

As you walked down the steps, you looked around at the crowd. Pushing your way through the sea of people, you didn't even stop at any shops as it was too crowded. You pulled your hands out of your pockets to crack your fingers, only to accidentally drop your phone in the process. You reached down to pick it up, reconnecting your headphones as you slowly stood back up.

You looked ahead of you to see a small quaint flower store, two workers and a cat inside. You were intrigued by the cat, why was there a cat in the shop?

Letting curiosity get the best of you, you slowly walked over and removed one headphone to speak to the employee. The brunette employee was busy speaking to a customer, so you had to speak with the tall dark haired boy.

"Pardon me," You began, him turning and looking at you. Making eye contact with him, you felt the blood quickly rush to your face. There was no denying the fact he was cute, and you were sure he knew it.

"How may I help you?" He smiled sweetly at you as you felt the hairs raise on the back of your neck, stuffing your hands in your pockets. You gulped, feeling too embarrassed to ask about the cat now.

You looked around frantically, spotting a beautiful white tulip bouquet, pointing quickly at it, "I would like to purchase your tulips!"

He chuckled before turning and picking them up, "2,000¥ ($18.22) please." He held it out to you, and you reached in your pocket for your money, pulling out a whopping.. 1,000¥ ($9.22).

Your face was now completely red, dropping your head in shame to hide your now beet red face. The flower boy noticed your sudden mood change, placing the tulips down and looking over at his supervisor, then back at you, "Hey, how about this. I work weekdays at this time, I'd be glad to sell you a tulip a day."

You looked up at him with wide eyes, unsure as to why he was being so sweet to you. "Is that.. Is that okay?"

"It's 200¥ a day, don't sweat it."

Feeling flustered you handed over 200¥ and he removed a tulip from the bouquet, handing it over to you. You thanked him for the flower, slowly turning and beginning your walk to your train station. You stared down at the tulip in hand, smiling softly as you twirled it around in between your index finger and thumb. You bumped into the person in front of you, quickly snapping you out of your daze and forcing you to look up, "I'm so sorry."

The Phantom Thieves of Hearts are making quit the waves recently, but the question everyone wants to know, who are these so called Phantom Thieves, and do they actually exist?

You glanced up at the TV, sighing. Those Phantom Thieves.. No way they exist. How could you possibly just change someone's heart?

Your train arrived, and you slowly boarded and rushed for a seat to head home figuring there was no reason to dwell on something that wasn't real.
