“Where do you think is a good idea to take someone to on a first date?” Gaara considered it for a moment before blurting his question out, hoping that he was not too adamant, but you would be able to catch a hint—you should, given that it was his fifth attempt and how terribly embarrassed he was after giving it a second judgment.

But you did not, even to the slightest degree.

“It depends on the person,” you mumbled thoughtfully. “Some like quiet places like a library, some like energetic places like an amusement park, some are just in the middle, coffee shops, or something like that.”

“Oh, I see,” he muttered, seeming apathetic, but deep inside, the man was utterly frustrated. It seemed like you needed more than that. So he abruptly stood up, pulling you up with him. “Let’s go then.”

“Go where?” You asked, still focused on the book in your lap. “I thought Temari and Kankuro are coming here?”

“No, they aren’t. It’s just me and you,” Gaara hummed, totally avoiding your gaze as his voice became more inaudible, “to the library, or amusement park, or coffee shop. All of them.”

“There’s no way we can do all of that in one day, Gaara.”

“Which one do you like, then?” At this point, he could no longer hold himself accountable, nor his feelings. Quickly defending himself, he cleared his throat, “It’s fine if you don’t want to.”

“I’d love to,” you leaped up from your seat. “We can go visit a new coffee shop that’s not too far from here!”

“Do you not have an idea where this is heading right now?”

“The coffeeshop?” You raised your brows at him.

“Really?” Gaara was really baffled, to say the least, and decided to come clean. “Do you even know what a date is?”

“Of course I do.” You exclaimed, feeling insulted because of his lame question. “How could I not know what a date—ugh—”

“Now, do you see what I meant?” He smirked, leaning down to your level. “So, are you onboard for a date at a coffee shop on this perfect morning, dear?”
