jaemin was walking home alone, because jeno had to stay after school to work on a project with a classmate.
that's when he realized there was something stuck in his throat.
he coughed twice before feeling something soft appear in his mouth.
reaching inside, he fished out a daffodil petal.
weird, how did this get in his mouth? his mind wandered to jeno.
jeno had always loved daffodils. he told jaemin when they were fifteen.
when jaemin asked why, jeno said they were simply the prettiest kind of flower — bright and beautiful. he had compared them to jaemin, and jaemin blushed.
later that night, jaemin had decided to order jeno a bouquet of daffodils to celebrate their first month together. as he clicked through the site of their local florist, his eyes fell upon a short paragraph about the what the flowers represented in life.
"uncertainty, chivalry, respect, or unrequited love, return my affection; new beginnings."
jaemin blinked. he remembered thinking back then,
what an odd flower to love.
