Hanahaki's Disease {RB Battles}

Hanahaki's Disease is a rare, semi-fatal condition in which the victim falls in love and begins to cough out flowers of their lover when the relationship is one-sided.

TanqR is the victim in this story- shortly after S2 came to an end he found himself blinded by an interest for his rival, KreekCraft. Kreek, is shorter than TanqR, has a smile that melts his heart and the mulicolored eyes of an angel.
Things are fine, until he begins coughing up these beautiful white flowers along with some of his blood. If he doesn't confess soon enough, he will end up with his lungs producing flowers instead of air, ultimately killing him.

Is this a sign or a death penalty?
