WHO LOVES UNIQUE? I DO. So this short story/poetry thing is inspired by a song by Conan Gray, "Lovesick Boys" please check it out and try to understand the lyrics because the song sounds happy but it's not. It's about a kind of toxic relationship where the girl hangs out with the guy and doesn't realize that she really shouldn't I guess. Lyrics go something like this: I was alone for a while/ You came along and you/ Asked me for a smile/ I guess then the stars had aligned/ A flower bloomed, the clouds were rushing out of my mind Well, lovesick boys will write you love songs/ And lovesick girls will always listen You watch as he walks through the fields/ Crushing pretty daisies under his heavy heels/ He picks you a big one/ It withers in the sun/ You notice that the flower is you And I know that he has the charm/ To sweep you off your feet and wrap you around his arm/ But he hurts you like crazy/ He loves you, well maybe/ But you are so much better than you know that you are

Featured by @Romance .·:*¨༺ ༻¨*:·. "Why do you make these paper flowers?" He asked, looking at her through the mirror. "They don't wither like the real ones." She replied, aligning the entire bunch of paper flowers. "But they don't have the fragrance." He politely challenged her. He was a soldier. Chivalrous was his middle name. "These paper flowers, they stay with you for as long as you want. You don't really have to throw them away like people discard the real ones. They pluck them for the fragrance and colors. But once that fades, they throw it away." She said, finally looking up at him. "Not everyone!" He added almost immediately, taking one more step forward. It could be his height or his longer stride, or maybe the room was too small as it only took him two steps to reach her. "Yeah! Of course! Exceptions are there, like poets and people in love." She walked in a different direction, putting those flowers on the table. He rolled his eyes with a defeated sigh. She was a teacher. Arguing with her was as futile as making a sand castle on a seashore. "You know, gone is the era when people used to preserve the flowers of their loved ones. We don't have people like that anymore!" She said as she faced him. "We don't have that kind of love anymore." He said looking straight into her eyes. She held his gaze through the mirror for a while, trying to read through him. "I agree." Murmuring under her breath, she turned around. Taking a deep breath, watching her retreating figure, he brought out his favorite poetry book from the shelf. After he was sure she was not looking, he ruffled through the pages till he found a dried Hibiscus. The very same one which had fallen from her bag when he first saw her. With a small smile, he cautiously caressed the petals. He closed the book with a fond sigh and found her looking at him. She couldn't hold his gaze for long and looked down, crimson covering her cheeks. He shook his head with a chuckle.
