THE FLOWER SHOP II @ofmagicallonging
"Robin's going to be mad," these were the words that the vampire mumbled to himself as he looked at the ruined garden. Cornel had not anticipated the hail storm. Heck he would have known had he watched the television, but like with everything modern he struggled to even turn it on without it being on the wrong port.
Now he was standing in the mud that was caked to his shoes, debating whether there was any way to gather the ruined peonies and hydrangeas that they needed for the commission. A wedding no less. Still he got to work gathering what he could, hoping that the blonde man could work some magic even with some not so perfect flowers. Maybe hide the ruined petals?
The amount that he managed to scrounge was almost half of what they needed. Not enough, but hopefully enough to make it work. Cor made his way with some flowers that were protected by the greenhouse and the best of the ruined ones to the flower shop the two had opened.
Once he had the building in sight it had brought back the memories of the two of them actually meeting by accident during the flower festival few towns over. He was trying to find someone to sell the flowers to while the taller male needed a supplier. Everything worked out in the end - even to the point where after getting to know each other they developed a little more than a business relationship.
That however didn't diminish the feeling of frustration and guilt as he during the soft patter of rain made his way inside the shop itself through the back door. "Robin! Precious we have a situation here!" There was definitely not enough time to regrow the flowers that were ruined - despite the reserves he had made.
