           there’s a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth before            he speaks, and ryuji gives her a nod, hands sliding into            his pockets with ease as he does so.❛ that’s the kinda            attitude i’m lookin’ for! i dunno why all these other guys            always gotta be so uptight when it comes down to the            wire. ❜he pauses briefly, removing a hand from his po-            cket to gesticulate while he talks.

“ Akechi-kun ! ” she calls out to him, her usual soft and delicate voice loud and bright. Haru carries her school bag in front of her with both hands on the handle, quickening her pace to meet the other. Her smile is warm for the surprise visitor. She’d never seen him in the times she’d been to Cafe Leblanc, and the cafe seems like such a hole in the wall that Haru finds it surprising Akechi found it.  “ Are you here to enjoy Sakura-san’s coffee, too ? It’s truly remarkable the amount of time he puts into his coffee. ” // @pupuscorvus​ liked for a starter !

She’s thankful that Akira is willing to help her tend to her garden today on the school rooftop -- her beloved secret project.. One day she hopes she’ll be able to have a greenhouse at her own home. Although, Haru couldn’t deny that the secrecy does excite her a little bit. “ You know what I discovered today ? ” Haru practically beams. “ Peaches, Pears, apricots, quinces, strawberries, and apples are members of the rose family ! Isn’t that amazing ? ” // @jokersene liked for a starter !

❛ Oh, quit that. ❜

“Huh?” she says, snapping out of her reverie. Haru blinks slowly, eyes wide and startled at Ryuji. She can foresee it now. He’s going to tell her that she’s being silly, that he can notice the way her fingers fiddle with the hem of her sweatshirt, that he can feel the nervous anticipation in her aura, that she’s racking her brain of good memories for them to chit chat about, or even a positive topic to talk about at all due to recent events with Okumura Foods and her father. They’ve never been alone before – and they weren’t on purpose. The Phantom Thieves were supposed to be meeting at the usual spot in Akira’s bedroom, but somehow the pair arrived before the rest as well as their host. It isn’t for a mission, simply to enjoy company and study before exams, but regardless of their duties, they are very much good friends ( even if Haru is newer amongst the bunch ). She knows she needs the companionship more than ever at the moment.

Haru’s eyes downcast towards the floor with a gentle and melodic sigh. What feels like an unforgiving silence to her must seem like nothing to Ryuji she briefly muses. Returning her gaze to the blonde, an idea makes itself apparent on her features. “Oh! Perhaps I can grab us some coffee downstairs while we wait.”
