You stared at your phone for 10 minutes, sitting on the same app on the App Store.

Download "Tinder" ?

"Am I that bad at meeting people outside that I need to use tinder..?" You said, moving away from the download button. Of course, you could go on dates, but it was usually pretty hard to go on random dates out of the blue. It was always awkward, and the people nearby weren't much of your type. At least not at the places you went to. "but what about catfishes?" You wondered, before turning your phone off and heading into the bedroom.

"I'll give outside one more chance!" You said to yourself, staring right in the mirror. You planned to go to a nearby bar, but didn't want to deal with drunk people, so you decided to head to the park. Sure, it was dark outside but sometimes it was better that way. You slipped on a sweater and some pants, and tried to shake away the nerves as you walked down the street. The park lit up brightly in the nighttime. The wind blowing the tree leaves left and right, it was relaxing. Definitely more relaxing than it is in the morning.

Taking a stroll around the park, you settled down on the grass. The sky was scattered with tiny white dots, and a quarter of the moon. "let me find someone here, someone cool." you whispered to the sky. The atmosphere of the park was mesmerizing, as you began to get drowsy. You rubbed your eyes to make sure you stayed awake, and before you got up to go home you heard someone's voice. Hm?

"Hey, could I join you?" You could hear their footsteps as they got closer, and you could only hope they're not going to murder you.

A man with pushed back blonde hair lays down on the grass next to you. "Uh, hey...?" You reluctantly wave. "Heyo. Pretty night, isn't it?" He says, staring up at the glistening sky. He illuminated this relaxing  aura that allowed your mind to ease up, but only a small amount. "Yeah, I was just thinking about that.."  You murmured, your statement trailing off and leading into a question. "What brings you to this park, at this time especially?" You ask, staring at his brown eyes looking for any sense of his personality but no answer in sight.
"Just walking around, you?"
"Honestly, I wanted to relax. Didn't expect to find many people though." You answer, hiding the truth from him. "For a second when you showed up, I was kind of worried you would murder me—"
Upon hearing that sentence, he lets out a quick chuckle.
"It wasn't that funny in the moment!" You groan.
"Well I promise I won't murder you." He says with a grin, although your not totally sure, he seems okay.

"My names Takami." He mumbles, barely allowing you to hear.
"Well, nice to meet you Takami. I'm Y/N."

"I should get going, maybe we'll see each other again soon." Takami lifts himself up from the ground, wiping off his shirt.

Wait!  I didn't get his-!

"Welp, See ya!" Red wings spread out from his back, as he prepares to take flight.

"You have wings?!" You blurt out accidentally.

"COULD I GET YOUR NUMBER!?" You yell, but he's already up in the sky, flying away.

"Thanks for being chill!" You hear as he disappears.

You fall on your back, annoyed from the end of the encounter. "Why didn't I ask for his number before he left..? He actually seemed like a cool guy..." Rubbing your forehead, you slump back to your apartment.

Reluctantly, you press the download button. One of the few people you see outside that you have an interest in, and you couldn't even get his number.
"Ughh-! Dammit!"

"'If this isn't better, I'm giving up."

Farther away, he sits on the rooftop of hero headquarters. Feet dangling on the edge, he thinks about the person he just met. "They looked stunning." He smiles. Suddenly the door opens, and a strong girl with white hair enters. "Hawks, the commission wants you! Cant keep them waiting too long y'know~" she teases. "Yeah yeah, gimme a minute." He stretches, turning to his good friend before walking with her to the commissions office.

"So, what we're you thinking about? I can tell you were in pretty deep."

"Well, just someone I met today."

"oh, oookay! Can I meet them?"

"Nope! No way." He answers, fixing his shirt once again, and entering the office.
