You-Me-Us

The usual

Jamie's Perspective

We have this customers who comes in every week to buy his girlfriend 7 roses. One for everyday of the week to show his love to her, and so that they have a reminder of the time they've been together.

It feels good to have regulars. Knowing that you do your job well enough that other people are willing to rely on your service regularly, gives me security and reassures me.

„Hey Jamie!" The man said, as he came in for his weekly trip to buy roses „The usual please!"

„Coming right up!" I exclaimed. I had already prepared the roses, because I knew he was coming today, just like every Saturday.

„Thanks so much. I do have a little bit of a quite extreme request for next week though... Would it be possible for you to prepare 414 roses for next week? I want to propose to my girlfriend with one rose for every day we've been together. I'll tip you extra." He asked.

I smiled „That's so sweet. Of course I'll do that. I'll probably have to get some more from a supplier but it's worth the effort."

„Thank you. It means a lot. See you next week." He exclaimed while leaving the store.

He made me think of Dani, and how much I loved her. I had never really told her, to her face and while sober. I've whispered „I love you" to her while she was asleep or maybe when we were birth quite drunk, but never properly.

But I do love her, so the only thing stopping me is my crippling fear of rejection. But I think it's time and I am ready. I mean we've got a flower shop and an apartment together, so if she actually despised me, she probably would have already told me.

When the last customer in the store, and elderly man, left I walked to the entrance and turned the sign signalising we were opened, to closed. It was our lunch break for the next hour.

„Hey Dani" I declared.

„Hey love" She replied. She was behind the counter organizing the cash we had made till noon.

„I've got a problem. Or rather we've got a problem, Poppins" I continued

„Oh no" She mumbled with a worried face.

„You see... I'm not sick of ya' at all. I'm actually pretty in love with you it turns out" I said to her

Her face lit up with relief. She smiled and leaned in for a kiss. Our lips touched and I got goosebumps. Our kiss started getting more passionate. Dani giggled and took my hand to pull me to the back of the store.

We continued our kiss. It felt like time stopped for us. Everything else seemed unimportant. Dani's lips were soft and I let out a little gasp when she grabbed the back of my head to make us even closer. I grabbed her waist and pulled her in towards me.

I wanted to feel her as close to me as possible. I pulled her head back a little and started slowly kissing her neck. She gave a little moan and pushed her fingers into my back. I could tell she wanted more, but I knew we couldn't go far as the store had to open again soon.

She put both hands on my face and put it against hers again. Slowly coming closer to my lips but not close enough that I could touch them. She does this every time because she knows it drives me mad.

I took her hands off my face so that I could kiss her, but she pulled away and gave me a teasing smirk. I had enough and pushed her against the wall, so that she couldn't pull back from the kiss. Our kiss went on and got more passionate, but I eventually pulled away; „We still have to eat lunch before the store opens..." I commented.

„Oh, I know what I'm having for lunch." She smirked at me and I immediately forgot about food.
