Hardik Pandya Imagines✔

Flowers 🌻

“Why don’t you have any flowers in your apartment?” she randomly asked Hardik while they were sitting on the couch and watching a movie one day. 
“Huh?” he replayed. 
“You don’t have any flowers or any pictures in your apartment. Why so?” she repeated. 
“I don’t know. I never really noticed this” he answered back and looked at her. 
“But apartment without flowers or picture doesn’t look like home nor does it feel like home” she replayed and looked back at him. 
“It doesn’t bother me at all” Hardik said back, “but do you like flowers? Do you want flowers here?” he added. 
“Who doesn’t like flowers?” she looked at him surprised. 
“I don’t” he smiled at her. 
“Lair. I bet you love flowers. I bet you have a favorite one” she looked at him seriously.
“I bet I can guess it” she added and looked at him.

This is what he loved the most about her. How randomly she talked about something. How she always tried to know more about him, to learn more about him.

Even though they have been together for awhile now, she still wanted to know more. And he was falling more and more in love with her. 
And even though he didn’t really had a favorite flower he made her guess. 

“I challenge you then. Try to guess which flower is my favorite one” he smiled at her and hugged her closer to him. 

“Okay give me a minute” she said, smirked at him and looked at him seriously.

It didn’t take her long and she finally said it “It’s Sunflower, am I right?” she smiled at him proudly. 

To be honest he was a little shocked. Sunflower? Out of all the flowers she said sunflower? 

“Why do you think this is my favorite one?” he asked her, not letting her know that he actually doesn’t have favorite one. 

“Because your favorite flowers actually tells a lot about the person. And I think sunflower describes you perfectly” she smiled back at him. 

“Oh really? And what is the meaning of Sunflower?” he asked curiously. 

“It has many meanings. But my favorite ones are for sure focus, faith, magic and good luck. And just like Sunflower you are always full of faith. You are always do focused on everything. And you are my lucky charm,” she smiled and kissed his cheek. 

“But there is a story behind Sunflower” she added. 

“Really? Can I hear it?” Hardik asked knowing how much she loved talking about Greek and Roman mythology . 

A smile graced the corner of his lips  as he remembered how she had insisted on him reading the Percy Jackson series even though it was for kids.

“Why are you smiling, you weirdo? ” she asked while punching his shoulder.

“Areh..nothing..just remembered how you were confused between Leo and Percy in that Percy Jackson series..” he finished before bursting into a laugh.

"Harry, I won't tell you the story then..”she pouted, thinking that Hardik was making fun of her.

“I'm sorry ,love. Go on and tell me.  I won't laugh."he said getting down to do the damage control.

“Promise? ” she asked looking up at him. He was too tall compared to her 5"4 which was just okay.
“I promise! ” he said kissing her cheek. “Go on.. ”he urged her as she still remained quiet, trying to assess if he was making fun of her or not.

“Okay. The sunflower is the Greek symbol of Clytie, who was a water nymph, and she turned into a sunflower after she lost her love, Apollo. The mythological symbolism here is that Clytie, in her Sunflower form, is always facing the sun, looking for Apollo to return, so they could be back happily back together,” she told Hardik and proudly smiled. 

“This is kind of sad but really beautiful story” he said. 

“I always loved this story” she answered back and rested her head on his lap.

Slowly he started playing with her hair. He started thinking about what she just told him. And maybe from this moment Sunflower really was his favorite flower.

“What is your favorite flower?” he asked her. 

“Probably Lily of the Valley” she said and yawned. 

“Do you want to tell more about this flower or are we going to bed?” he smiled. 

“Lily of the Valley has the flowers meaning of humility, chastity, sweetness and is said to bring luck in love. But it also means 'the return of happiness'. We could really go to bed yeah, I’m kind of sleepy and the movie isn’t really that great. Next time I will pick what we are watching” she said and stood up. She offered him her hand and Hardik took it after turning off the TV and other running electrical appliances.

When they came into his bedroom she quickly jumped into his bed. 

“You know this is my side of the bed” he smiled at her. 

“But you also know I love to sleep on your side of the bed. It smells like you” she smiled back at him.

He rolled his eyes. Why did she need his smell when he was there in flesh? “as you want my lady” he said and lied on the other side of bed. He hugged her and held her as close as he could. 

“You know I love you so, so, so much” he said and kissed the back of her head. 

“You know I love you more, more, more” she said back hugged him a little tighter .

“Impossible” he smiled back. 

“Wanna bet?” she smiled at him and slowly kissed him on the lips. 

Next day when Hardik came home from the training he walked into his kitchen and saw a bouquet of Sunflowers on his table, there was also a note. “Because I know you love flowers, xxx Y/N” he smiled at how silly she was, but she was probably right.
