after football practice I got in my car and drove to this little flower shop that my dad would always go to to buy my mom flowers.

Rori's Flower Shop

there were so many flowers I didn't know what to chose... so I picked the classic love flower, roses.

I went to check them out and there was a girl there around the same age as me. She had long blonde hair and blue eyes and she was wearing a green apron that said "Rori's Flower Shop".
I knew this wasn't gonna end well as soon as she started fixing her hair as soon as I picked out flowers.

"so... are these for your girlfriend?" she asked as she rang up the flowers.

"uhh no they are not actually" i said avoiding eye contact while i pulled out my wallet.

"oh so your single then?" she said. I froze.

"uhh pretty much so" why does she ask?

"oh so you wouldnt mind if I gave you my number then?" said with a smile. Definitely flirting.

I stood there for a minute confused, like, no i dont want your number.

"uhhh sure i guess" my face was pretty red. I was not expecting this. I mean ive given someone I know my phone number before, but like i dont know who this is, and they are giving me theirs. I mean i guess i dont have to text her but still it's weird.

She wrote her number down on a sticky note and gave it to me.

i said thanks, i dont know why. and paid for the flowers. i dont think i'll ever be texting her anytime soon.

___________________________________

it's 6:30 am the next morning, and it's raining; which means I have to bring the roses to troye's locker before he gets there first. I'm here a little later than usual so hopefully troye doesnt get here while i'm doing it or something.

I hope he doesnt suspect anything about the flowers since he literally was talking about flowers the other day in chemistry.

I'm in my car, currently writing troyes letter:

dear troye,

i hope you like the flowers, they're almost as pretty as you

- 💌 💌

Every time I do this i'm one of the only people at the school; cause everytime i park my car in the parking lot it's practically empty.

This time there are more than a few cars here; which means I've got to hurry up.

I run in with the letter and put it in his locker when I realize...

I forgot the roses

Like literally the most important part of this whole thing was the roses and i leave them in my stupid car. I was gonna tape them to the outside of his locker.

I run out to my car to retrieve the roses when I realize a lot of people are already here.

gotta hurry

So people won't suspect anything i put a bag over the flowers followed by one of my varsity sweatshirts.

Some of my football friends high five me in the hallway and ask whats under my jacket.

I just say it's my science project that i didnt want to get wet from the rain.

When I get up the stairs and turn the corner,

I see troye opening his locker

my hearts beating so fast.

He stands there with his cute face as he realizes he's got another letter.

his smiles so bright.

His chocolate curls get in his face so he tucks the sides behind his ear.

He looks confused, probably because it says "hope you like the flowers" but there is none. He turns to look around so I back up more into the stairwell so he doesnt see me.

God, he's so adorable,

God, i'm in love
