I think you're made of flowers
How you bloom when there's light
On your skin

On Monday morning I make my way towards my office and feel my heart flutter at the sight of not one but two bouquets on my coffee table

I've never ordered myself two bouquets before so I know with certainty that one of them isn't from me...unless the floral shop mistakenly gave me an extra one

Walking over to the flowers I look them over, one of them is an assortment of different creamy white and pink roses,

And right next to the roses there's a stunning assortment of sunflowers, lavender, and different little flowers spread throughout the bouquet, a small white notecard catches my attention that's slightly hidden in the flowers

𝚍𝚘𝚗𝚝 𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚛𝚢 𝚊𝚋𝚘𝚞𝚝 𝚕𝚞𝚗𝚌𝚑 𝚒 𝚆𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚑𝚊𝚟𝚎 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚘𝚗𝚎 𝚋𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚗𝚐

My heart does summersaults at the nickname, I'm not quite sure what's with him calling me sunshine but a part of me thinks it's cute,

And then he goes and gets me Lunch and flowers? He's going to make a grown woman cry in the middle of her office,

It's small things like this that show he's not the man people make him out to be, yes he may be cold and rude but what hard-working businessmen are sunshine and rainbows?

And he's nice to me and that brings on a wave of happiness In my heart.

While I'm working on scheduling Mr. Huxley's week I catch my eyes drifting to the flowers, they bring a warm feeling to my chest, I also catch myself rereading the note he sent as well,

A smile spreads across my face as I think about how he remembered me saying that I haven't received flowers in a long time,

And by a long time...I mean pretty much never, the only people who ever got me flowers were my parents but there both gone now and have been for a while,

I'm sure a part of him felt pity for me and that may have been a reason he sent the flowers...but either way, it still brings me joy that he sent them, whatever the reason may have been.
