warnings: none

felix heard the door to his shop open and close. he quickly set down his clippers and headed to the front where his customer would be waiting. standing at the counter was a young man his age, waiting with cash in his hand.

"hi! welcome in, how may i help you today?"

"how do you passive aggressively say 'fuck you' in flower?" the man said, slamming at least 30 dollars on the counter.

shocked by the unexpected outburst, felix blinked at the man before speaking again.

"um...follow me to the back and we'll start making an arrangement."

the two headed out of the main room to the storage and growing area, which housed hundreds of beautiful plants. felix began walking through the sea of planters, examining the flowers.

"may i ask why you're asking for this particular meaning?"

"it's kind of a long story but the short version is that someone asked me out as a dare and i fully intend to act completely infatuated with her before revealing that everything i've been doing was just one big fuck you."

"understandable."

"...really? all my friends called me crazy."

"it's genius. i'm all for a good act of petty revenge. too complicated for me, but i'm happy to be an accomplice."

behind felix, the man chuckled and began looking around. he didn't know jack shit about flowers, but they were pretty and plentiful.

"let's start out with orange lilies as the base."

"what do those mean?"

"hatred and loathing."

he walked a little ways down.

"then some accents with yellow carnations. those symbolize disappointment."

as the man nodded along, felix went and picked a few more flowers, further explaining their meanings. in the end, they had a beautiful bouquet of orange yellow and pink flowers with a few patches of white meadowsweet to add elegance.

the two men went back to the front and completed the transaction while chatting.

"thank you for coming! i hope she loves it."

"i do too, that'll make the surprise even better. thanks again, i know it was a weird request."

"no problem."

felix smiled as the man exited the store, admiring the flowers they'd arranged together. then, he went back to making his usual arrangements.

"hello! how can i help you?" the employee said.

"could i get an arrangement of pink roses, sweet peas and bellflower?"

"sure thing, give me just a minute."

the man headed to the back and hurried to the planters, grabbing each flower he'd requested. he arranged them into a small formation, perfecting them as he wrapped them.

he quickly handed the bouquet to the customer and rang him up.

"that'll be 24.58."

he handed him his debit card.

"may i ask if felix works today?"

"why?"

"this arrangement is actually for him."

"oh. well his shift ends at five, so you might wanna come back later." he said, glancing at the clock reading half past noon.

"okay. thank you so much."

"sure thing!"

as he exited the store, jeongin once again smiled at the flowers. the florist really had an eye for arranging these things. now needing to pass four hours time, he decided to drop the bouquet off at home and walk around town and have fun.

he ended up watching a movie and getting coffee. still, he had an hour left. rather than taking the bus, jeongin decided to walk back to his apartment in hopes of passing enough time to be back at the flower shop by five.

the walk there and back took about 45 minutes, and jeongin was then sitting outside the shop waiting for felix to clock out.

"bye seungmin!"

jeongin turned around to see felix walking out of the shop.

"hey."

"oh, hey!" felix replied, surprised by the man in front of him.

"i have something for you."

"what is it?"

"close your eyes."

he complied, closing his eyes and hearing a rustling of plastic.

"open them."

when felix's eyes adjusted to the late afternoon light, he saw a beautiful pink bouquet in front of him. his eyes lit up as he took it from the man.

"it's beautiful." he said in an astonished whisper.

"i'm glad you like it."

felix looked over the arrangement.

pink roses, sweet pea, bellflower, and baby's breath as an accent.

"does this mean what i think it means?"

"yep. she sure did love your arrangement. i don't think anyone could have pulled it off as well as you did."

felix smiled brightly and pulled the man into a hug.

"thank you so much."

"no, thank you."

"oh yeah! how did the days go?" he said, releasing the taller man.

"maybe i can tell you over coffee."

"i'd like that..." felix trailed off, looking at the other inquisitively

"jeongin."

"i'd like that jeongin."
