Cat Cafe AU

[aceofcrows]

Welcome to the cat cafe -- Coffee and Cats!

It's a quiet, well-run cat cafe featuring a half dozen permanent residents and another half dozen adoptable cats. The coffee is good, fresh, and prompt, and the sole employee is ... well... he looks a bit like he should be in a gang with his height, long hair, and goatee. However, he's incredibly gentle, shy, and absolutely wonderful with cats and small children. (Even if he's afraid he will break something.)

Come in, find a seat, and enjoy the atmosphere. Open from 11am to 2pm and 6pm to 9pm every day.

I didn't know it was going to be that kind of asking out.

[fuss FUSSSSSS]

[shootykawa]

Well it was. And if that's a problem we probably shouldn't go to a movie on Wednesday.

[aceofcrows]

It's not! I want to go! I just didn't know you'd be paying tonight?

[shootykawa]

I like to treat my boyfriends well.

[And he lets that hang, to see if Asahi is going to challenge that or just go beet red.]

[aceofcrows]

You've had more than one?

[shootykawa]

Well, two if we're counting you. And I've dated girls before too!

[aceofcrows]

I'm not your boyfriend though...

[shootykawa]

We just went on a date and we're going on another... when do I get to call you that?

[He's actually not sure of that himself, he's pretty new at having non-Iwaizumi boyfriends.]

[aceofcrows]

I... don't know.

[shootykawa]

[Oikawa goes quiet for a second thinking.]

... Would you like to be my boyfriend? We can still go to the movie if you don't, but I will probably ask again after.

[aceofcrows]

M-maybe after... the movie?

[shootykawa]

Okay. I'm going to look forward to it even more now.

[aceofcrows]

[he blushes, but smiles slightly, looking anywhere but at Oikawa]

Ah... my apartment's over this way.

[shootykawa]

Alright. I'm happy to walk you home.

[He offers his hand for Asahi to take.]

[aceofcrows]

[._.



he takes his hand after a moment and heads down the street]

[shootykawa]

[He's letting Asahi lead because he doesn't know where he's going, but he's very happy to be holding hands. This feels like a big step with as shy as Asahi is.]

[aceofcrows]

[it helps that it's late and there aren't many people out in the suburban streets. he's quiet at first, but he eventually points out a few things, places he likes to eat, a bookstore that has a good selection of volleyball magazines, a small shrine that he'd prayed at on the way to school before games.]

[shootykawa]

[Oikawa makes note of all of them, especially the places to eat.]

This is a nice neighborhood. You have good taste.

[aceofcrows]

I really like it here.

[shootykawa]

I'm glad. I bet those kitties would be lost without you.

[aceofcrows]

[snorts]

I'd be more lost without them.

[shootykawa]

Really? Why do you say that?

[aceofcrows]

Ah... I didn't really have any plans for after college. I knew I was supposed to go, but... [he shrugs] Helping with the cats... makes me feel useful.

[shootykawa]

Yeah, it's smart to find something you like that won't eventually kick you out for getting too old...

[aceofcrows]

I'm pretty sure I'll never be too old for cats...
