Alex's POV
I'm on my way to the graveyard again, walking down the same street, the way path again, I was walking past that house again, there's always and abundance of flowers there and often times I'll steal a rose or two, yknow, just to place down at his grave, but what was a new thing about weekly visit was "hey, what are you stealing my flowers for" be half yelled at me causing me to stop in my tracks and look towards the house, god damnit I've been caught.
"I- I" I stumbled over my words and felt my face heat up in embarrassment, how do I tell him-
"Well, is the lady you're giving 'em too really not worth the money to have them bought from somewhere professional??" He asked, walking over to his fence, and fuck he's cute, he has bottle blonde hair, gorgeous eyes and a playful smile yet there's a hint of annoyance there "in fact, yknow what, I wanna see this lady, if you're taking my flowers I think I deserve it" he said, walking out of his garden before I could stop him
"I- okay??" I got out, too dumbfounded to properly form any kind of sentence, starting to walk again off towards the graveyard again, the guy following my, he must not of noticed which direction we were headed in and I don't know how to bring it up that we aren't meeting up with a lady.
By now we're almost at the gate and I still don't think that he's realised, I stopped in my tracks and he almost walked into me "right i- I'm not here to meet with a lady" I forced out, my voice strained and higher pitched than normal "I, I'm here for my brother" I squeaked out, looking down to avoid his expressions but I was surprised when I was wrapped up in a hug "oh god I'm sorry, I just assumed- I'm so sorry" he mumbled into my shoulder, I eventually wrapped my arms back around him
"it's okay, I get why you assumed as much" I mumbled back to him, rubbing his back softly to reassure him, we stood like that for a little while longer before we pulled away, a blush now colouring my cheeks a pink colour, and I swear I could see a blush on his face too "would you mind if I came along, I wanna meet this brother of yours, because if he was anything like you, he's definitely worth the flowers."
