narrow black eyes widened when the embarrassed red eyes's holder gently pushed lilies and roses onto his chest. "uhm- do ya like them?" shinso asked, looking down and still holding the flowers in calloused fingers because ojiro still had his arms up to his sides in slight surprise.
ojiro giggled, not in a mocking way but in a affectionate fond kind of way, and grabbed the flowers gently with both of his hands with a half lidded smile, "yes.. they're lovely, shinso."
shinso brightened, making ojiro breathless of how pretty shinso looked at the moment with that lovely small yet fond smile and hands scratching his neck nervously. "i'm glad… mm, they have meanings, ya know? the flowers? i didn't pick them only for their looks, ya know."
ojiro fiddled with the leaves of the flowers, calloused hands that were made to fight carefully dragging fingers on them, "i see, that makes them even more special, hm? tell me about them, toshi." shinso flushed at the nickname, making ojiro chuckle with a hand half heartdly covering his mouth. lovely, ojiro told himself, shinso was very lovely, just like these flowers he held. perhaps that's why he liked them so much? because he thought they were like shinso?
shinso attempted to say the meanings with a small, flushed stutter, ojiro's tail wagging of how he could make a cold snarker of a man like shinso into a stuttering mess- it kinda reminds him of todoroki and midoriya's relationship.
"well, uh," shinso began, looking down at his tennis shoes and kicking the dust from the ground, "the lilies- the pink ones are called pink stargazer lilies, by the way- they mean… that i think you're pure of heart and there's heaven in your eyes… ah, uhm and the white one means i think you're pure and that... it's heavenly to be with you…"
red and orange flowers started to bloom on ojiro's face, littering his cheek bones and ears as his mouth slight went ajar. shinso… was cute, honestly, he nodded as he stared down at the pink and white lilies.
a smile suddenly pulled on ojiro's visage as he gently pulled a rose out of the bunches of flowers. he was careful to not to rip the passionate red petals from the thorn free stem and got closer to shinso, using his free hand to hold shinso's surprisingly warm hand and speaking with a voice that was full of just fondness and fluff.
"the roses… they mean you love me, don't you?" he had the gall to giggle as he placed the stem of the rose behind shinso's ear, ojiro noticing how the dark red compliments shinso's mess pruple hair. shinso blinked at him before bashfully nodding in reply, making ojiro's tail wag and his smile grow into a grin.
"uwah, that's adorable. you're just too cute, toshi." he cooed lovingly, placing the flowers on a bench nearby and softly pushed his lips onto shinso's own. despite his eyes being closed, ojiro could feel shinso's smile curling on his lips and he couldn't help but giggle as he pushed his lips a bit farther into the kiss.
