was he some kind of master charmer or something? this place was magnificent. it was the kind of place kids had their first kisses in, families spent days together, girls confessed their love, where people proposed. it was perfect and completely not what she was expecting. she looked around, rather in awe, at all the different flowers and the perfect scenery. this was his mother's? that was a bit serious, right? taking here here on their first proper date. she wasn't sure if she should be worried or feel special. so she felt a bit of both, awkwardly. as ryūsuke led the way, miyako followed carefully; overly mindful of the flowers. this was one of those kinds of places that needed to be treasured, maintained, respected. it was beautiful, and she was sure a lot of work had gone into it. she had to admire that. is his mother still alive, though? she wondered, curious. she wouldn't mind meeting a woman with the patience and care to make a place like this thrive to such an extent.
but that could and should wait. she had to remind herself of that, having gotten away with herself. besides, he said it "was his mother's orchard". that implied she wasn't still around, right? miyako didn't necessarily want to step on that subject just yet. she was so awkward when it came to those sorts of things, after all. so she stayed silent, admiring the beauty of every flower as she went. she started to feel a lot more relaxed, which was odd given the circumstances. she was in a place that was, she assumed, very special to a man she'd just met - and slept with. it was private, secluded; just the two of them. this felt like something out of her books. surreal, romantic, oddly foreign but in the nice kind of way. they were approaching a couple of apple trees shading the picnic that was already laid out. she wondered who had organised that, probably one of those assistants. ryūsuke was so damn organised.
i hope you like it.
his words brought her back to reality as he helped her take a seat. she managed that with as much grace as possible (which wasn't much at all), and hugged her knees to her chest, arms wrapped around her legs comfortably as she looked around some more.
"i love it," she murmured, after he had taken his seat across from her. she smiled a bright, pretty smile with just a hint of shyness. careful, she snapped to herself. blinking, she shook her head and looked at the food that was already set out. she found a bottle of water still in the basked to the side and opened the lid to take a couple of nervous sips before handing it over to ryūsuke.
"i never knew anything like this existed in konoha," she admitted.
