Flower Crown

He wasn't one for things that made him look soft. He had an image to keep up and that was the image of a dark and brooding guy. Recently his dark image had been slipping, but if anyone knew about his secret his image would be destroyed. 

It wasn't a big secret per say, it was just really embarrassing to Anxiety. He was supposed to be the dark and edgy one, but for some reason, he really liked flower crowns.  He had a bunch of them. He never wore them outside of his room or even let the others know he had them, but he did and he loved them. His favorited had names and he was almost certain naming his flower crowns is and will forever be the weirdest thing he had ever done. 

Now, Anxiety took a great effort to make sure there was no way that someone would ever find out about them. He kept them hidden in a locked box in the back of his closet and whenever he even entertained the idea of taking them out he would make sure no one was home and even if no one was home he would still lock his door to ensure that his secret would remain hidden even past his death.

Today the only difference was that he had been planning this for a week because he had just gotten a new one and he really wanted to wear it, but this one unlike all of his others had no trace of dark colors, it was all pink and that meant that there was, even more, ammunition for people to make fun of him with. 

He had waited for an hour after everyone had left before evening daring to get the box of flower crowns. "I'm gonna have to get another box soon," Anxiety thought as he started to sort through his flower crowns, looking for the newest one.

He smiled widely when he found it. He put it on his dresser and quickly unlocked the door to pop his head out and make sure that no one was around. When he was satisfied that he was alone he relocked the door and gently put the flower crown on his head.

It looked like it belonged there.  It gave him a boost of confidence and made him think that maybe just maybe the others wouldn't make fun of him and actually encourage his interest. He smiled and the thought, but still, when he heard the front door open he put the flower crown away and locked the box.

Maybe one day he would let the others find out about his flower crowns, but today was not that day.
