Tumblr media
00: Foul Ball.
You run into the tallest man you’ve ever seen in your life at your favorite local coffee shop.
Literally, while moving to your usual seat this giant of a man, not paying attention on his phone, smacks right into you spilling both his and your hot drinks all over you.
It burns, thankfully not that much. Mainly embarrassment and annoyance burn you more. Frustratingly you try to dab away the mess with the pathetic wad of napkins the guy shoves at you.
“Look! Please let me pay for another drink and anything else you want!” Your mystery man
“No it’s fine.” You seethe trying to gather your dignity.
“Aw come on! Those pumpkin cheesecake muffins look pretty good! Don’t you want one?!” He cries almost desperate.
Turning up you’re about to snap at him when you finally get a very good look at your current enemy.
He’s tall with striking cloud white hair. Sleek modern sunglasses slide down his nose as azure pool eyes stay focused on you. And of course he’s absolutely gorgeous.
To save your sanity your eyes dart to the bakery display and spot those muffins he mentioned.
“…okay fine. But I also want a croissant.” You mutter.
He buys you two of each.
You’re also surprised at how adamantly he drags you to sit down at a table.
“We can break bread together over our temporary peace treaty.” He beams.
The man is annoying charming, like a song you find annoying but can’t help but still bop your head to.
He’s new in town, actually moved here all the way from Japan.
“That’s a long way from home.” You admire genuinely. “What brought you out here?”
“Work.” He says simply and with a shrug.
Your mystery man rapidly and eagerly jumps to ask about you, where you work, what you do.
It feels…like a pity conversation. As easy as it is talking to him, you know this is unfolding simply because he ran into you and is trying to just smooth things over.
“Look,” you sigh picking at your croissant. “We don’t have to do this.” You wearily wave your hand between the you and him. “The pathetic small talk and all that. I get it, accidents happen and I appreciate the apology muffin. But you can head out.”
“Don’t forget the ‘I’m a clumsy and unaware idiot’ croissant I got you.” He adds and your lips twitch.
“And come on. I’m not that boring to talk to am I?”
He isn’t and it annoys you even more.
“Besides, who says I maybe just wanna chat with the cute stranger I accidentally spilled various drinks on?” He smile wide at you and it’s dangerous.
He’s dangerous.
Mystery man vows to run into you again same time next week and he is true to his words. In his hands are more pastry treats and your drink order, because of course he remembered.
It’s then that you finally learn his name.
“Gojo, Satoru Gojo.” He introduces himself. “Though you can call me cute coffee guy.” He smoothly adds.
You refuse to call him that and he playfully cries.
Again, it shocks you how just easy it is talking to him. Conversation is casual and so effortless. Gojo eagerly listens to your recommendations about places to visit, restaurants to try out.
“As long as you go with me! I need my own cute tour guide unless I’ll get lost.” Gojo pleads.
You roll your eyes and hate how fast your heart beats at his words.
Then his phone goes off. Sighing Gojo answers it. You give him privacy by looking at your own phone. However, you can’t help but catch bits of the conversation. He talks about a photo shoot scheduled for the end of the week and how his agent will be making any adjustments to the time slot.
And it clicks. He’s a model. He’s definitely a model.
“Sorry, work being dumb.” Gojo apologizes as he hangs up.
“No worries.” You reassure him casually. You realize you never fully asked about his job last time.
“So, what do you do?” This time you make sure to.
Gojo’s wide sky eyes flicker to you as he takes a sip of his tea.
“Oh I’m a professional baseball player.”
He answers so casually while setting his drink down, like he just told you about the weather. For some reason you can’t help but laugh. Because model made sense, but a baseball player?
“What?!” Gojo cries playfully. “I’m serious look!”
Suddenly he grabs his phone again. He quickly types something on it and turns it to you.
What he did was Google himself. Because of course he did. Low and behold, you discover he is indeed not a model.
Instead, you see his broad shoulders, his tall frame, looking infuriatingly gorgeous in a uniform -
And you learn that your mystery coffee man, Satoru Gojo, is in fact a very real and actually very famous professional baseball player.
