Sunflowers – in the language of flowers they symbolize adoration, loyalty and longevity.

He's beautiful.
That was your first thought as you watched Duke walk among the sunflowers.
The way the sunflowers seemed to part and turn to him like he was the sun.
In a way, he was.
He could shine so bright, his light could be scorching.
Duke wore a baggy, yellow sweater which complimented his dark skin and made him seem.... warmer.
Duke's dark eyes surveyed his surroundings.
He looked to the sunflowers around him, to the yellow hills in the distance, to the clear blue sky, and finally, to you.
Duke flashed his signature brighter-than-the-sun smile.
His beautiful, warm brown eyes crinkled at the edges as they shone with adoration.
At who? You?
"(Y/N)," Duke waved you over to his spot in the amid the sunflowers, "Come check out the view. It's so beautiful."
You're so beautiful, but I could never say that to your face because then you would think I was a creepy person who spent all their time thinking about how much they adore you.
And you wouldn't be wrong.
"Coming," You said as you jogged through the sunflowers toward Duke.
His warm gaze didn't leave you for a second as you jogged toward him.
And your gaze didn't leave him either.
As he stood in amid the sunflowers, you couldn't help but think he too was a sunflower in a way.
He loved the warmth of the sun, even though you, like the vampire you were, avoided it at all times.
Duke was as bright as one, in a way.
There was just something about sunflowers and Duke that made you not want to look away.
How both sparked joy and a certain warmth that started in your chest.
