Flower 2: Forget-me-not
"Are you sure I should be in here?" Nagi asked anxiously. His slim fingers drummed against the counter and his midnight eyes darted about the shop in an uneasy manner. "I mean… You know Abys– eh…Fujimiya…and Hidaka and Kudou don't like me very much."
Omi sighed. "They'll warm up to you eventually, Nagi-kun," he reasoned. "But they ought to hurry it up." His usually cheerful cobalt eyes narrowed slightly. "I've told them time and time again: Schwarz disbanded. You're perfectly trustworthy, and you're not gonna kill us all while out backs are turned." He crossed his arms over the cash register counter and rested his elbows on the surface. "…Right?" he asked playfully, a teasing smile on his face. "You're not gonna kill us all in our sleep, are you?"
Nagi grinned lightheartedly, catching on to Omi's good humor. "Yeah, I am. I'm gonna hide in the bathroom tonight and jump the lucky person who decides to take a whiz."
The two giggled over the counter, trying to stifle their sniggers.
"I knew it."
The two teens turned around at the new voice, startled at its firmness. In their wake stood Fujimiya Aya, in all his ghastly-orange-shirt glory (in fact, why two members of Weiss enjoyed orange so much, Nagi would never know). His arms were crossed over his apron, and his customary frown was set in place, predictably aimed, not at the rabid fangirls, but at Nagi.
"I knew you were going to kill us all." Aya glared at Nagi, an air of victory radiating from his body. "Now leave Omi and us alone."
"Aya-kun!" Omi admonished. "Don't be rude to Nagi-kun. He never did anything to you! …Recently."
Aya growled under his breath. "Yeah… Well…" Lacking an appropriate comeback, he glanced around the shop, where hoards of fangirls were loafing about. "Buy something or get out!" he stated loudly, staring directly at the idle Nagi. If proper Aya weren't proper Aya, he would have stuck out his tongue in an immature albeit triumphant manner. "That means you, Naoe."
Nagi returned Aya's glare with one of his own while Omi glanced between the two anxiously. "Maybe I will buy some flowers," he countered back bitterly, staring at Aya as a rush of fangirls ran out of the shop.
"You'd better. How about some lovely pennyroyals?" Aya spat, his eyes distrusting.
Nagi turned around to fully face Aya. "No thank you," he said coolly, matching the redhead's gaze.
Aya's eyes, if even possible, hardened. "Oh, no?" He glanced behind him, where an arrangement of seemingly innocent red, pink, and white flowers sat on display. "Then why don't you buy Omi some cyclamen?"
Despite the beauty of the mentioned blossoms, Nagi arched an eyebrow: an apparent decline. "I don't think so. But good idea." He turned back to Omi, who ducked his head as an apology for Aya's hostile behavior. "Can I buy a cluster of forget-me-nots?"
Omi nodded vigorously. "I'll make that arrangement myself!" he offered with a grin. He bustled away from the counter and rushed about the shop in search of the blossoms Nagi had requested. All the while, Aya scowled.
A few minutes later, Omi appeared back behind the register with a bouquet of forget-me-nots in his grasp. "Done! Here you go, Nagi-kun." He handed the blue flowers to Nagi, who accepted them graciously while fishing out a couple of yen from his back pocket.
"Thank you. Now…" He held the cluster back out to Omi, smiling diffidently. "These are for you."
Forget-Me-Nots: faithful love; undying hope; memories; do not forget; true love
With appearances from:
Pennyroyals: you had better go
Cyclamen: resignation and good-bye
Killah: Whooo! Am I sensing some jealousy from Aya? ./waggles eyebrows/ …No, really, am I? xD Does it seem like he's crushing on Omi-chan? o.O
I really don't mind if I don't get any reviews, really. Big shock, since I'm a review whore. xP Alls I knows ez dat I'm havin' loads of fun writing OmixNagi drabbles. xD
