(Ig I have a thing for characters with long hair-) also I'm making shit up bc Morel doesn't have an age

I lightly swung my feet back and forth under me I was on break at my bakery. Thankfully it was a calm day, most days we'd be swamped with people and I'd have to skip breaks. I smiled more gently as I took a drink of my juice. Then two very odd yet interesting men walked into my bakery, both clearly close but very different. "Welcome to my bakery, if you give me two seconds I'll help Y'all at the counter." I smiled as both turned too look at me. The shorter of the bunch gave me a large smile and the other just shyly looked away, going behind the counter as I promised I gave them a smile. "So my names Y/n, what can I do for you two!" I asked as I fixed my dark Lavender apron, the smaller one started to push the other towards me.

"U-uh, we need a custom birthday cake." He mumbled his right arm grabbing at his left shoulder. "Okay, here, sense I'm not busy we can take a seat over there and talk about details." I smiled at them both before the shorter one gave me a large smile holding his hand up. "I'm sorry I have to get other things, my buddy Shoot here." He patted his friend a little harshly on the back making him lunch forward a little bit. "Will be taking care of everything." Before his poor friend could get another word out he was already our the door. "Uhm." He turned pink as he helplessly looked at the door, "Don't worry I don't bite, I promise." I smiled making him sigh nod and follow me to the table I was sitting at a few moments before.

"So let's start with the basics, what's your name?" I smiled brightly at him crossing one leg under me. "Uhm, Shoot, it's nice to meet you." Shoot gave me a small smile a light blush laying nicely across hus face. "And who is the cake for?" I asked pulling out a small notebook to write everything. "My mentor Morel, he is turning 56 in a week." Shoot explained seeming to slowly relax. "Thats so nice!" I grinned as I wrote down Morel's name and age, "how big was you thinking?" I asked poking my own cheek with the pen I was using. I saw his face go a little darker red, "E-excuse me?" He said his voice almost gone before I tilted my head to the side. "How big the cake is? Or do you want a sheet cake?" I asked this time offering more options, "Oh! Well we was thinking three tier's? Do you think that is enough cake for say, 20 people?" Shoot fastly asked as I hummed nodding as I wrote down the size of the cake. "Flavors?" I hummed pushing my hair out of my face, "Chocolate and then camel between layers, and maybe just a simple butter cream as icing." Shoot offered as he held out his right hand listing the Flavors he wanted on his fingers.

"Wow, you really know you're stuff, you ever worked in a bakery?" I asked smiling at him in turn making him turn red before slowly nodding. "Really? Then why are you not making it at home? Wouldn't it be cheeper?" I asked rubbing the back of my head, this time Shoot turned a deep royal red as he looked away. "Uhm, well," shoot started to play with the fabric on his left shoulder. "You don't have to tell me, I was just curious." I quickly back tracked as Shoot nodded his face still burning. "Okay all I need now is, what you want on it, when you need the cake and money." I listed before looking back up at Shoot who nodded, "well we will come pick it up Friday, and I was thinking a forest theme, with rabbits?" Shoot smiled when he told me the theme of the cake, it was actually really cute.

"I can definitely do that, do you have any special requests?" I asked as I was writing everything down. "Would you come with me as a date?" Shoot asked very boldly making me freeze, Shoot seeing me do so started to apologize. "Sorry! Ive just seen you alot and I thought you was really cute an-!" I cut Shoot off when I gently grabbed his out stretched arm. "I would love too." I smiled, matter of fact I've seen him around too, but I've never had the chance to talk to him. One of my employees helping him before I could, he was very handsome. Shoot sighed if relief before I gently grabbed his hand, "but how about we go in a date before then? Are you busy Tuesday?" I smiled it was Saturday as of now, Shoot almost melted at my words. "I'm free! Here's my number so we can discuss it more!" Shoot grinned making me giggle, it looked good on him. "Well let's pay for this cake and then when I get off work i'll be sure to text you." I winked as I walked to the counter.

I couldn't hold in my excitement as I waited in front of my house as Shoot told me too. Shoot said to dress casual not to worry about over dressing, so at least I don't have to worry about fancy restaurants. But he also did say we was eating and do something else, he was very vague but he sent a lot of cute little outdated emoji's (ie =D or =p it was very cute of him) I almost buzzed with happiness when I saw Shoot pull in my driveway. He got out wearing a simple Royal blue sweater and white button up under it, then tan pants. I noticed that his left arm was gone but I decided to just give Shoot a large smile as I joined him by his old Truck. "You clean up very nice." I cheekily smiled as I stood nexy to him. As I got closer I realized that Shoot's hair was in a simple Ponytail instead of being a braided poneytail, it made me want to pull it down and run my fingers through it.

"And you took my breath away as you was walking towards me, I almost thought I wouldn't ever be able to breathe again." Shoot smiled back moving to show me a bouquet of flowers. I felt my own face turn a dark red at Shoots words, "you shouldn't have! Thank you so much!" I gasped gently taking the flowers from him before throwing My arms around his neck pulling him down to my hight. I felt Shoot lightly laugh, his deep voice sending vibrations through my own. "You've only seen me for a few moments and you've already out done yourself compared to other dates I've been on." I laughed as Shoot smiled at me leading me to the passenger side of the Truck. "Well I hope you won't ever have too go on another." Shoot winked as he opened the Truck door for me, I just giggled as Shoot went to the other side of the truck.

"So do I get to know what we are doing tonight yet?" I asked buckling my seat belt. "Depends, how much do you badly do you want to know?" Shoot cheekily replied as he started fo drive. "Mmm, cheeky." I chuckled as Shoot smiled a bit wider. "I never did ask, who was that guy you came in my store with the other day?" I asked as I looked out the car window, "Oh that's my Mentor's other student, his name is knuckle." Shoot explained as I hummed turning back to Shoot "Well next time I see him ima thank him for forcing you to talk to me." I grinned as Shoot turned pink remembering that this date was only possible because Kunkle got tired of his pinning and make him do something. The rest of our car ride we talked about everything and anything, I actually learned a lot about his mentor and knuckle, both sounds like fun people to be around.

"Okay, we're here, open your eyes." Shoot smiled about five minutes ago he told me to close them. I gasped in shock when I saw the most beautiful view I've ever seen. "Oh my god." I gasped as Shoot sent me a lagre smile, "I also made us a dinner so we could have a picnic, do you want to sit in the bed of the truck so we can watch the sunset better?" Shoot shyly asked as he grabbed the basket from behind his seat. "I would love to!" I gasped giving Shoot a quick kiss on his cheek before I fastly got out of the Truck to get a better look, not seeing how red Shoot's face got. Shoot and I sat shoulder to shoulder in the bed of his truck, the basket of food out in front of us. "I think I understand why you got me to start ranting about my favorite foods and why I'm a picky eater." I giggled when I realized that I only saw foods I had talked about. Shoot laughed relaxing against the back of the trucks cab, "it wasn't hard I barley had to say anything." Shoot teased making me laugh gently bumping his shoulder with mine.

After eating we both sat in a comfortable silence as we watched birds fly seemingly off into the sunset. I smiled before I gently rested my head on Shoot's shoulder, gently taking his arm into my lap as my left hand tangled my fingers with his. "Are you cold?" Shoot ask gently when I started to cuddle on him, I mean I was wearing a nice short-sleeved shirt and a black skirt so it was a little chilly. "Yeah, but it's okay as long as you don't mind my closeness." I smiled up at him, "yeah thats okay." Shoot chuckled as he started to rub shapes into my hand that was holding his.

I think I fell asleep when I heard the Truck door shut, I looked around to see it was dark and I was buckled in. I rubbed my eyes and looked at Shoot when he got into the Truck. "Shoot?" I asked my voice still deep with sleep, "oh did I wake you?" Shoot asked making me shake my head, "i'm sorry, that was so rude." I frowned moving my hands into my lap. "It's okay, you're honestly adorable when you sleep." Shoot chuckled as he started to drive, "are you sure?" I asked at Shoot nodded a smiling dancing on his face. "So I'm still invited to the birthday party?" I joked making Shoot nod laughing gently making me also laugh. "I love the way you sound, you're just such a soothing person to be around Shoot." I happily hummed as I crossed my legs criss cross apple sauce. "Thank you, knuckle says that too." Shoot chuckled making me grin, "well that just proves that it's true!" I declared making Shoot humm a smile dancing on his face.

Way too soon for my taste we was back at my house, Shoot being the gentleman he was walked me foo my door. "I can't wait to see you again." Shoot smiled down at me, I felt myself turn a light pink as I gave him a warm smile. "So do I." We both shared smiles before I gently pointed at Shoot's face, "hey, there is something on your face." I hummed as Shoor looked suprised before leaning down, "could you get it for me?" Shoot asked as I smiled "yes." And then I kissed his lightly on the lips, I gave him time to pull away. Surprisingly Shoot kissed me back wrapping his one arm around my waist. I softly pulled away our faces blinks away from each other, "oops I just guess it was my lips." I grinned as Shoot giggled kissing me again this time I wrapped my own arms around his neck.

(I love Shoot so much, he is such a babyyyy!! The Ant arc has such good characters.)
