You have had an incredibly long day at work and all you want is a nice warm bath and to cuddle in bed with your girlfriend, Sadie. For context, you work in this factory. It's basically 12 hours of boxing things up and putting pallets aside. There is nothing specific that gets boxed up.

You have the worst part of it. You do the driving AND the boxing. So it's a long day for you.

Okay moving on.

But before you can get home, there's something you want to take care of. It's been a few months since you've had the chance to go out and get Sadie some flowers. So that's what you're doing. There is currently one singular Florist open and it's half way across town.

It closes at 9:45pm. The time is 8pm. Believe me, it'll take about an hour for you to get there.

When you finally get there, you walk in.

"Good evening! How may i help you today?"

"Hi. I was hoping to get a bouquet of the reddest red roses you have. If it's not too late." You say.

"Absolutely. For someone special?" She asks.

"Yes. My girlfriend." You say.

"Then you'll want a card with them too, no doubt." She says.

You nod. She makes up the flowers and comes back with 3 girlfriend cards.

One reads: 'love of my life, i dont know what i would do without you'

Another reads: 'i love you with all of my heart, mine forever'

And the final one reads: 'my girl until the end of time. No getting rid of me now'

You decide on the 3rd one. She'll appreciate that one. You both make that joke qjite frequently with each other. 'You're stuck with me' 'good luck getting rid of me' type stuff.

You pay for the flowers and the card and go back to the car. It's one of them little gift card sized flower cards. So you don't write on it. You then finally go home.

When you finally go home, you go into the kitchen.

"Baby!" You call out.

Sadie pretty much sprints into the kitchen and jumps onto you. The both of you wrapping your arms around each other.

"Why has it taken you so long to get home?" Sadie asks.

You show her the flowers. Her heart bubbles in her chest.

"It's been a while and i wanted to get then for you." You say.

"Baby." She says, smiling.

You smile. She looks at the little card in the flowers and smiles, chuckling a little.

"Looks like i really am stuck with you." Sadie says.

"Absolutely." You say.

She puts the flowers in a vase and puts the little card next to it. You both then go get a shower together and cuddle up in bed.

All happy.

Thoughts? I know it's rushed. I'm half asleep writing this 💀💀. Byeee :)
