Title: UPS Man
Pairing: Greece x Japan
Rating: K plus, or thereabouts
Kiku Honda jumped to his feet as the doorbell rang. He quickly combed his fingers through his perfectly fine straight black hair and straightened him jeans and form-fitting t-shirt, wishing he was wearing something more formal, like a three-piece suit, or maybe a yukata with a katana.
"Konnichiwa," he said politely as he opened the door. Standing on the stairs that led to his apartment was the most gorgeous man Kiku had ever seen: long, curly brown hair, deeply tanned skin, sleepy green eyes and a cat perched perpetually in his arms.
"Hullo," the man yawned, running his fingers through the long fur of his cat. "I've been requested to pick up a package from this address." he stated, staring with unreadable green eyes at the Japanese man in front of him. "Do you have anything for me to deliver?"
"Yes." Kiku replied, bowing his head politely. "Wait a moment while I go and get it." He waited until the man had nodded his consent before walking into another room, heart beating wildly. He was so beautiful. Kiku could hardly believe it. How could one person be so beautiful? He had a nice figure, even though, as far as Kiku could tell, he just slept all day (or at least as much of the day as he could), and he had perfect features, and best of all he seemed to realize just how pretty he was, but he didn't even really care. In Kiku's eyes, he was the perfect man.
Kiku walked back to the door clutching a couple of packages in his hands. "Here you go," he said, bowing slightly s he handed them over. The man accepted the packages with a nod and was about to turn away when Kiku said, "Could you please come tomorrow as well?" The man turned and looked with his unreadable eyes at Kiku.
"Hai," he said, with an extremely serious look on his face. Kiku waited just long enough to close the door after the man had left before fainting.
**AYE**LUV**YOU**
Over the next few weeks, Kiku built up a business on the internet buying and selling electronics- electronics that would be delivered to and from Kiku by the UPS man. Kiku tried to build up enough courage to ask the man's name, but he never quite got around to it. He did, however, ask about the man's cats. All seventeen of them. Thank goodness Kiku liked cats, otherwise that would have seemed like rather a lot.
Every morning Kiku would wake up and buy supplies to be shipped out all over the world, and then he would get dressed and fix himself up- in a casual way, of course, because he didn't want to scare the UPS man off -and then wait for a while for the UPS man to knock on his door. They would exchange packages and friendly greetings and ask cursorily about what had happened in the twenty-four hours since they had last seen each other, and then the UPS man would leave Kiku Honda with a warm, fluttery feeling in his chest.
Kiku was in love with the UPS delivery man. He didn't even know his name. That didn't stop him though. He loved him nonetheless.
Usually, after the UPS man had left, Kiku would wander back to his laptop and buy and sell more things, then retire to his drawing table and draw his best likeness of the UPS man- which was actually pretty good -and then he would watch anime on Netflix for most of the day.
But on this particular day, Kiku decided to do something daring: he would follow the UPS man wherever he might go.
As soon as the UPS man had left down the stairs, Kiku rushed to grab his jacket off the hook by the door, then switched his inside shoes for outside shoes in the entryway. He ran outside, then ran back inside to grab some sunglasses and a beanie hat (he didn't know where he'd gotten it) so that the UPS man wouldn't recognize him, and then he set out.
First UPS Man walked around Kiku's apartment building, delivering packages to other tenants. Then he left the building and got in his big, brown truck and left, never noticing Kiku's small, sleek, silver car following after him. UPS Man drove all up and down a neighborhood near Kiku's apartment building, dropping off packages at houses expecting packages and picking up packages where he needed to. He did this all day, and by the time night had fallen he was still delivering packages. He had stopped for lunch at a fast-food drive through, and Kiku had done the same, not knowing what else to do.
Finally, UPS Man seemed to be done. Or at least, he had stopped stopping every once in a while to deliver packages. He didn't seem to have a destination in mind, though. He just kept driving around the neighborhoods surrounding Kiku's apartment complex, turning at random every once in a while. When he finally did stop, he parked in the parking lot of a dollar store, got out of his truck, and leaned against the side of it, watching as Kiku slowed down and parked near to him.
"Hello," UPS Man said with a small wave. Kiku got out of his car and looked guiltily at the ground. He had been caught. "So... do you want to get something to eat or something?" UPS Man asked. Kiku's head jerked up in surprise.
"Wh-what?" he asked, hardly able to believe his ears.
"I asked if you wanted to get something to eat with me. You seem like you want to." The man smirked slightly at Kiku, who blushed.
"Um... y-yes, I would love to get something to eat with you..." Kiku said, shifting awkwardly from foot to foot. "Um, but first... what is your name?"
The man grinned. "Let's discuss that over dinner."
A/N Okay, I got this idea the other day when this guy came to my house to pick up a package, and no I was not dealing drugs I was trying to return a DS game to Amazon. Anyways, I just kind of thought, like, you could almost flirt with someone as long as you kept returning shit. Although I don't know why I'd want to flirt with my UPS man since I'm fifteen and he's, like, forty-five... o_O
