There is only one way to say 'I love you.'

There is only one Todoroki Shouto.

Flower shops are some of the most peaceful places in the world. The air smells heavily of the perfume from the plants. The toasty environment of the room, the way that rain or shine it was always bright in the shop.

The flowers sitting in each of their own little packages call and entrance strangers. Making people fish out a few yen to buy someone they loved a flower. Most always grabbed a simple red rose, the most iconic sign of love.

Love.

Your fingers ghosted over the flowers before you. The waxy softness of the petal running smoothly under your fingertip. The frosty coldness of February winter clung to your face as you stared at the carnations on display.

"Are you getting any flowers today, brat?" The small flower shop owner barks at you. Her wrinkled hands go to sit on her waist in a sassy pose, her eyes squinted as she looked up at you. "All you do is come to stare at my flowers, touch them with your oily fingers, and scare off my customers!"

The stance she is taking should be one of reprimanding, but your face warms in love for her. "Sorry, Ami-sama, these carnations were just calling my name today." You laugh pulling at the white carnation that you had been admiring.

"What's so good about getting yourself flowers?! Why don't you get that handsome boyfriend of yours to get you some flowers? Tch, you bring him around once and now I never see him again! Who do you take me for?" She scolds you, her arms folded as she thinks about who you brought.

"Ami-sama, you know—" Your eyes widen at her judgment, but she continues on.

"He was such a handsome boy, tall and strong looking, too! He could do something about that scar... tell him I know someone with a quirk who can remove all scars! Just because of you I'll give him her number, and she'll do it for free!"

The groan that leaves your lips is joined with a wispy trail of air that leaves your mouth.

Deciding not to fight her, you smile politely. "As much as Shouto would appreciate the number, I don't think he wants to get rid of his scar."

"Bah," Ami humphs as she takes the white carnation and places it within your fingers. "Using his first name though? I didn't realize you young lovers were that deep in your relationship!"

Your face flushes as you take the flower. You and Shouto that deep in your relationship? No, he just asked you to call him that and who were you to say no? After all—
