Eden:
They didn't make it.

Sebastian:
Who didn't make it?

Eden:
My flowers, Seabass. They're gone.

Sebastian:
Already? Shouldn't they last longer than a couple of weeks?

Eden:
I promise I took care of them. But they're dying.

Sebastian:
I thought you said they already didn't make it?

Eden:
There is no point ignoring the inevitable. This case is terminal.

Sebastian:
Are you alright?

Eden:
I've made my peace with it.

Sebastian:
Did you cry?

Eden:
No.

Sebastian:
It's okay to mourn them.

Eden:
They were so beautiful Sebastian😢

Eden:
And I get up this morning, to another brown petal on my windowsill.

Eden:
They didn't deserve this.

Sebastian:
Send me a picture?

Eden:
*photo*

Sebastian:
Oh, Eden, I'm trying not to laugh right now.

Sebastian:
They literally look the same as the day we got them.

Eden:
They're DYING Sebastian.

Sebastian:
I think you have at least another week to say your goodbyes.

Eden:
I don't like you making fun of me.

Sebastian:
Then stop making it so easy, beautiful.

Eden:
Stop that.

Sebastian:
What?

Eden:
The nicknames.

Sebastian:
Oh, so you can call me Seabass, but I can't call you beautiful?

Eden:
My nickname for you is funny. Yours for me is unoriginal.

Sebastian:
My nickname for you is true. Your nickname for me is borderline offensive.

Eden:
Yeah. To actual Sea Bass.

Sebastian:
You're mean when you're upset.

Eden:
Sorry. It's the grief of loss.

Sebastian:
I forgive you.

Eden:
Thank you.

Sebastian:
So, it's Sunday. Are you out with Zoya later?

Eden:
Yes. We're having a drink in memory of my beautiful flowers.

Sebastian:
It's nice that your friend is so supportive.

Eden:
What are you doing tonight?

Sebastian:
Nothing, actually. Just enjoying my night off before I'm back to work tomorrow.

Eden:
And are you working all week?

Sebastian:
Monday to Friday.

Eden:
Are you still working your lunches?

Sebastian:
Sometimes, why?

Eden:
Sometimes I go out for lunch breaks when I'm working or at Uni.

Sebastian:
Do you want some company?

Eden:
You're so NEEDY.

Sebastian:
Oh you so set me up for that.

Eden:
Just playing. Sure. We can go for lunch. Just not Monday, I have a big order I need to finish.

Sebastian:
How's Tuesday?

Eden:
Tuesday works.

Sebastian:
I'll pick you up. Heaven Scent, right?

Eden:
Yeah. How did you know that?

Sebastian:
It was on the invoice you sent me when I ordered those flowers from you.

Eden:
Oh. Yeah. Duh.

Sebastian:
Don't worry. I'm not stalking you. No need to when you're all up for lunch dates.

Eden:
It's not a date.

Sebastian:
It's a friend lunch date.

Eden:
I thought you were boycotting dates?

Sebastian:
Not this one.

Sebastian:
See you Tuesday, Ed.

Eden:
Don't call me that.

Sebastian:
What a turn of the tide, huh Ed?

Eden:
Don't get swept away by the current, Seabass.

Sebastian:
😂

Sebastian:
Enjoy your night x

Eden:
Speak to you soon x
