flowers//newtmas {SLOW UPDATES}

TWO

thomas smiled. he adored his family's shop, he was extremely happy about working there now. the place was always like a second home to him, and now his dream of becoming a florist had come true.

while he was re-arranging some flourishing yellow sunflowers, victoria had snuck up on him. thomas' bambi eyes turned wide as his sister jumped on his back.

'jesus tori, give me a warning next time!' he exclaimed. victoria just smirked at him and ruffled his hair, 'you know i can't do that tom, it's too fun scaring you.' thomas rolled his eyes and continued reorganising the flowers. tori's smile turned into a frown as her brother stopped giving her the attention she wanted. she huffed and walked back to the front desk where she had originally been.

the bell above the door rang, meaning another customer had walked through the glass door. thomas smiled, he loved helping people find the perfect flowers for their loved ones or a special event that meant the world to them. it was beautiful.

thomas opened his mouth to greet the individual but it closed a couple seconds after. the boy who stood in the shop was stunning. thomas had never seen such a beautiful human being, he felt intimidated even just standing in the same room as the literal god.

the boy's golden brown eyes glanced around the homey shop but soon met thomas'. the brunette felt his cheeks heat up immediately. he knew he was blushing. thomas broke the eye contact and told himself to just say hi and act calm.
'easier said than freaking done.' he said to himself, hoping no one else in the shop heard him.

as thomas was walking up to the boy to welcome him to the shop, he admired his golden hair, his caramel-coloured eyes which twinkled in the sunlight and his rosey pink lips. thomas thought that his lips just looked so soft and so.. kissable. the brunette's eyes widened as he realised what he was thinking. he had been in the same room as the other boy for a few minutes and he was already thinking such things. gosh, he had to get a grip.

'hi! welcome to flor amor, have you been here before?' thomas asked as soon as he reached the boy. the blonde furrowed his eyebrows, as if he was wondering why thomas was talking to him.

'uh, yeah i've been here before..' he said, obviously feeling quite awkward. thomas smiled, his accent was amazing, the sound of it gave him goosebumps.

'well, if you need any help, let me know. my name's thomas.' he pointed to the pastel blue badge on his yellow sweater proudly.

'name's newt.' the other boy said with a hint of confusion in his eyes. why did he seem so confused? newt walked away after a few awkward seconds to look at the flowers with big doe eyes.

the brunette turned on his heels and walked to the front desk where his sister was standing, smirking. thomas looked at her curiously and slightly tilted his head like a puppy.

'why are you smirking? what's going on?' thomas questioned.
victoria kept the playful smile on her lips while saying, 'you find him cute.'

her brother's eyes dilated and brought his finger to his lips as a way of telling her to quieten down. she had said that quite loudly and there was a good chance newt had heard her.

'oh come on tom, you haven't dated anyone since alby and that was three years ago. just ask him out.' she told him with a hushed whisper.

'it's not that easy tori, i'd embarrass myself! he'd think i'm weird. he probably already thinks i am! and anyway, it's not like i find him attractive because i don't.' thomas rambled, his cheeks turning back to that luscious pink.

'whatever helps you sleep at night, tom.' tori chuckled.
