Thanks for the reviews, faves and follows~
This one is the Flower Shop AU~
xXx
"Isn't roses beautiful, Sasuke?"
"Hn."
"..I really love roses."
"Good for you." Sasuke grumbled, now hunched over and lazily leaning his elbows against the counter as one of his hands cradled his bored face while the blushing fangirl continued trying to make conversation and having yet to make any move of taking out money to pay for the flower that she claims to love. Without even being subtle about it, the Uchiha rolled his eyes as the random woman prattled on about how the flower represents love.
The shop didn't even open that long ago and he already has a headache, plus he could see that there was already a stupidly long line behind this girl, all full of lovestruck women and even a few blushing men who waited their turn to talk to the handsome cashier. His fingers drummed the skin of his cheek impatiently as she twirled a lock of hair around her finger.
"Are you gonna pay or what?" He snapped, wondering briefly when his indigo haired coworker was gonna come in. After all, he would never have decided to work at this damn place if it wasn't for the pretty flower girl that caught his eye all the times he came in to buy flowers for his mom. Honestly, he doesn't even really like flowers.
The woman made a show of digging in her purse before sending him an apologetic smile.
"Oh, it seems I don't have any money," She whined, clasping her hands in front of her so her arms would push her breasts together and make her cleavage more visible to him as she stuck out her glossy lower lip in a pout, eyelashes batting at him sweetly. "But, I reeeeeally want this rose..."
"Well, thats too bad for you then," Sasuke replied, examining his nails to avoid the eyeful of cleavage on display, "Learn to bring money next time."
"Sasuke...I can pay you in...other ways," His dark eyes drifted up just in time to catch her biting her lower lip seductively as she sent him a wink, "..if you know what I mean."
He sighed loudly, feeling his head throb as he contemplated just banging his head against the counter to knock himself out and save him from this situation, "I'd prefer money."
The woman frowned discontentedly as he refused her offer but she had yet to give up, "But Sasuke-" She was interrupted by a hand grabbing her shoulder roughly to spin her around to meet the glaring eyes of the woman who's been waiting behind her.
"Hey bitch, if you don't have any money then beat it. You're wasting Sasuke's time." The irritated woman growled.
"Excuse me?!" The offended woman snapped, but she quickly recovered and sent the women waiting behind her a smug smirk, "As you can see, I'm busy trying to make a deal with Sasuke here. I'm sure he'll agree soon."
Sasuke rolled his eyes but refrained from saying anything, maybe he'll get an entertaining catfight outta this if he let them argue. He absently blew up at the long bangs hanging in his face - maybe he should get a haircut later.
"Yeah right skank, we all heard him reject your offer to sleep with him." The woman scoffed, hand squeezing the stem of her flower as she kept herself from slapping the infuriating woman holding up the line.
"H-he's just shy so shut the hell up, you little mouthy bitch." The woman growled as her eyebrow ticked in annoyance, she was sure she could get him to change his mind with a little convincing and this pest wasn't helping with making that happen.
"Pfft, shy, whatever you say bitch." The Uchiha watched the two in amusement sipping on his water bottle that he intended to save for later - this was much better then working.
He was in the middle of wondering who would strike who first when the bell chimed, announcing another person entering the shop. Capping his bottle, he immediately straightened up when he spotted the lavender eyes gazing at the scene in concern as she took fast strides on her way to the front counter.
She stopped next to him, hands swiftly gathering up the long strands to yank through the scrunchie until she had her usual ponytail, two flower decorated clips kept her bangs out of her face as she smiled at him in exasperation, "Quite the rowdy crowd you've gathered here today."
Shrugging his shoulders, he cleared his throat as he looked away from the petite woman he's been waiting for, "Not my fault." He mumbled, glad that his long bangs shielded the pink of his cheeks when she giggled.
"You're too pretty for your own good," She joked as she fished a piece of paper out of her pocket and handed it to her stoic coworker, "Here, why don't you gather these supplies from the back for me while I clear out the customers?"
He certainly wasn't complaining and with a dismissive, "Hn," He was off to the back while the customers were distracted with the arguing women.
When he was gone, Hinata took a deep breath to gather her nerves; Sasuke's fans were always a bit intimidating but atleast they weren't really a threat.
It was time to intervene before this got out of hand, "Uhm...excuse me!" She called as loud as she could without seeming rude.
The two women stopped arguing long enough to look at her in confusion, "Huh? What happened to Sasuke?" They asked, eyes drifting around the small shop for the grouchy male.
"I'm sorry, but he had to leave to make some deliveries. I'm not sure when he'll be back," She sent them a friendly smile, "But I'll be happy to help you in his place."
The woman in front of her frowned in displeasure, losing all her fire with the Uchiha missing before picking up the rose and turning to put it back, "No it's okay, I was just planning to leave."
The woman she was fighting with was about to do the same until she noticed the mangled spine of her flower that she was squeezing the whole time and couldn't bring herself to just put back the ruined product, "Uhm, yeah, I'll just purchase this flower."
Hinata happily rang her up and was relieved to see that without Sasuke most of the customers just put back the flowers and left. Would've been a tad overwhelming if they were all genuinely buying flowers and she didn't have any help.
By the time Sasuke came out of the back with a box of supplies, Hinata was blissfully watering the plants in the now peaceful and empty shop. She spotted him and smiled proudly, "You can finally get some peace."
"Thank god." He breathed, hefting the box onto the counter and digging in it to start stocking up the shelves, unaware of lavender eyes watching him curiously as he blew at the bangs hanging in his face in annoyance.
He was examining the bags of seeds in his hands when the scent of vanilla suddenly filled his nose and without warning, hands sifted gently through his bangs, pushing it to the side and out of his face as a small click was heard before the warm hands pulled back. Hinata smiled at her work as she stared at the flower clip holding the long strands out of her quiet coworker's face.
"There you go, Sasuke. Now you don't have to worry about your hair getting in your way." The Uchiha was silent, unable to process a response to what just happened.
Hinata stared at him in concern, "...Are you okay, Sasuke? Your face is all red. Do you have a fever?" Once again without warning, she placed her hands on his shoulders and raised up on her tiptoes to press her forehead to his.
"Hmm...you don't feel like you have a fever...aaah, you're getting redder!"
