meeting hirugami sachirō was nothing but a chance encounter. they were first years at kamomedai high and had never once been in the same room together, despite also going to the same middle school. it wasn't until hirugami visited the flower shop where y/n worked that they met for the first time. even then it was pure coincidence seeing as his sister was the one who was supposed to get the flowers for their grandmother and y/n had to cover for her coworker on her usual day off. nothing happened because of that initial encounter, though, at least not until they started noticing each other more in passing at school.

y/n wanted nothing more than to be at home, curled up in her bed, at that very moment. but once again she was troubled with the fact that she couldn't say no to people when they asked things of her. it was a wednesday afternoon, one that was meant to be her day off, and her coworker guilted her into taking over their shift after their family member surprised them with tickets to some event. of course, y/n agreed reluctantly––not that she let it show outwardly––and now she was stuck at work on the slowest day of the week.

making the most of the slow day, y/n got started making some floral arrangements that were supposed to be picked up later that afternoon and early the next morning. the process of choosing the designated flowers, cutting the stems to the appropriate length, and arranging and rearranging the bouquets until she deemed them good enough had become therapeutic to her. y/n's movements were confident and precise as she placed tulips of multiple colors on a bed of greenery like stated on the order that was to be picked up in the next couple of minutes.

the sounds of bells chiming pulled y/n out of her concentrated trance, a customary 'welcome in' escaping her lips while she put the finishing touches on the floral arrangement. eventually she looked up to properly greet the new customer only to be met with the sight of a boy around her age. his presence in the small shop was rather odd, he looked uncomfortable or hesitant or irritated? y/n wasn't too sure, she just knew that he most likely didn't want to be there.

"can i help you with something?" she broke the silence upon realizing that he wasn't going to be moving any time soon.

"yeah, i'm here to pick up some flowers," his voice was on the deeper side, she noticed. another wave of silence passed over them as she waited for him to tell her who exactly the order was for but even then he just let his eyes wander around the room awkwardly.

"do you have a name for an order or do you want me to put something together right now?" y/n tried to suppress a laugh and hide a smile when his eyes widened.

"oh, sorry, it's an order for hirugami shōko. my sister said it would be ready at five-thirty," he raised a hand towards the back of his neck where he lightly tugged at his hair.

"you're right on time," y/n glanced towards the bouquet of tulips right in front of her, "i finished it right as you walked in."

he picked up the wrapped flowers and walked out with a 'thank you' after she told him his sister paid for them ahead of time. it was only after he turned his back towards her that she realized who he was. y/n recognized him as one of the players on her school's volleyball team, despite not knowing his name. from the few moments he was standing right in front of her, she came to realize how cute he was and found herself wondering what his personality was like. 'oh well', she thought as she got back to work, 'it's not like anything would happen between them anyways'.
