May I please request a scenario where someone starts leaving a cup of coffee on Ango’s desk for him, and occasionally there’ll be a little sticky note like “this most recent case looks like a pain. Good luck” or “you seem more tired than usual, be sure to get enough sleep!” I’ll let you decide if it’s romantic or just someone being a nice friend. Thank you!!
coffee breaks (sakaguchi ango)
Ango stared at the still steaming cup resting on his table, eyebrows scrunched in confusion. It was the third time this week that this had happened. He would leave his desk for a while for whatever reason, to fetch some files or just stretch his legs, and when he would come back there would be a steaming cup of coffee waiting for him.
He looked around. “Tsujimura-san, do you have any idea who put this here?”
Tsujimura looked up from the file she was poring over and blinked, glancing at the cup and then back at him, “I’m sorry, I have no idea, sir.”
She looked just as confused as him, and Ango shook his head. Tsujimura had a habit of getting too lost in whatever she was doing, so it made sense that she wouldn’t notice her surroundings. Oh, well, whoever it was, at least they knew how he liked his coffee.
He sat back down in his chair and was just reaching for the cup when his eyes caught on the slip of paper tucked beneath it.
He carefully tugged it out. ‘You should rest once in a while. xoxo’
It was a hasty scrawl, done in pencil on a sticky-note, and it left Ango even more confused than before. He looked around, as if whoever left it would still be around, waiting to be spotted. Obviously, there was no one who stood out.
He sighed, looking down at all of the paperwork still spread out on his desk. Folding the note and putting it in his pocket, he picked up the cup to take a sip, deciding that for the time being, he would let it be.
The next time someone leaves a cup on his desk, there is again a note attached.
‘Good luck with your latest case, and for God’s sake, get some sleep.’
Ango smiles at that, before folding it neatly and tucking it into his pocket, just like he had done to the one before it. The coffee, as always, was amazing.
Over the next few days, he received several such notes with the coffee, usually with something short, sweet, and encouraging. To his surprise, Ango found himself looking forward to these little pieces of sweetness during his otherwise dull day, and his mood would be a lot cheerier once he had got it.
Once, however, as he was returning after delivering some documents to the chief, he saw you trying to covertly slip away after placing the cup of coffee on his desk. He slowed down abruptly, hoping to give you enough time to make your get away. He didn’t want to embarrass you, after all. Once you had gone, he quietly slipped back into his seat, and as he once again stared at the steaming cup of coffee, the realization finally sunk in.
He had never expected it to be you of all people. Not that he was complaining, he had always liked you, and with your sunny personality and sincere work ethics, it wasn’t a surprise either. He just hadn’t expected you to pay so much attention to his well-being. After the initial shock, a small smile tugged at his lips. He needed to do something about this.
When you come to your desk the next day after taking a break, to your surprise, there is a cup of coffee waiting for you, complete with a sticky note. Beyond confused, naturally, you frown slightly to yourself and pick it up.
‘Your coffee making skills are phenomenal. Let me return the favour?’
You sense someone approach you from behind, and your cheeks heat up even before you turn around. Ango smiles at you.
“If the coffee is too terrible, we can also go out the nearby café.”
“O-oh, hey, Ango-san.” You say with a nervous smile, “How are you?”
He laughs, “I’m good, (y/n), thanks for asking. So, would you like to go and get some coffee with me?”
You pause for a while, before finally smiling, “Sure, I’d like that.”
