fiddling with the straw in his drink, hikari was refusing to touch the bread that was in the middle of the table calling his name. it wasn’t respectful to eat without everyone at the table no matter how hungry you were - granted, he was only waiting on one other person, but if they came while he had half a bread stick shoved in his mouth it wouldn’t look too good. so he resisted by distracting himself. it wasn’t until he saw a figure sliding into the chair across from him that he dared to look up. “thank god you’re here,” he said in lieu of a greeting, flicking the straw away to the other side of his drink. “find the place alright?” he asked, having sent them the location to the restaurant just in case they hadn’t been here before.
