Dan Howell finally reached Phil's flower shop. The moment he stepped inside, he was greeted with a very strong, yet sweet aroma filling up the small shop. It was also quite cold, for Phil had the air conditioning turned on even though it was pretty cold outside in London anyway.
Phil greeted Dan with a big smile, however he was feeling incredibly nervous on the inside.
"hi." Dan spoke, softly. He felt comfortable around Phil, even though they'd just met. Still, he refused to share eye contact with him, and so he would shift his eyes from here to there in the shop.
"Daniel! Hey!" Phil joyously greeted Dan.
"Don't call me Daniel." Dan laughed a little, "I hate being called that."
"Alright, Danny." Phil joked, making Dan chuckle at the stupid nickname. "So, you want flowers that produce a lot of pollen, eh?"
"Yes, please."
"Well I have some picked out for you. I picked a variety of them so you get to choose." Phil mentioned. He walked out of the small room, outside to where the flowers were kept. Dan just simply followed him quietly.
"So, we have here some chamomiles, chrysanthemums, daisies.." Phil spoke, pointing at the flowers laid onto the wooden table. "Also some goldenrods. Ooh, I like those." He said, picking one up and brushing it against his cheek. "And of course, some ordinary sunflowers."
Dan's eyes glistened as he watched Phil talk about different kinds of flowers. He waited for Phil to finish before speaking, "they're all just so pretty! How do I pick one?"
He whined.
"Dan, care to tell me what do you actually plan to do with these?"
"I plan to infect anything she loves with pollen, so she understands how it's like to have something you love be so against you." Dan had expected for Phil to ask him more questions after he said that. But to his surprise, Phil didn't ask any.
Phil knew Dan would feel uncomfortable answering more questions. He knew Dan would open up about everything when he wanted to. So he just weakly smiled at the boy, and squeezed his hand slightly.
"I think you should take a combination of my two favourites; chrysanthemums and goldenrods. Maybe even some daisies."
"Okay."
