"Love is the flower you've got to let grow" -John lennon

-------

"Aaaahhhh....crystal I need help",A young girl with brown hair and blue eyes pouted as she pulled her assignment near her.

Crystal sighed, her crystal blue eyes skimming over the assignment then looked back at her friend. "Blue, you already answered a question like this just go back and follow the same formula as question 3.",Crystal said pushing the assignment gently back to its owner.

Blue sighed and nodded then worked on it. Yellow, a girl with blonde hair and green-Yellow eyes, gently poked Crystal's shoulder. "And here?",she asked as Crystal smiled and explained.

This young woman is Crystal. She has crystal blue eyes, which is why her parents named her that, she had dark blue hair but at the same time it seemed like it was a light shade of dark blue. She had Yellow star ear rings and her bangs were swept to the sides. Her hair was medium length and pulled into two twin ponytails.

Crystal is a hard-working teen, she helps the teachers after school and even helps her peers in class when they need help. Once she's done helping teachers she helps her mom out at the flower shop. There was never a moment in her life that Crystal wasn't helping someone. But just because she worked a lot doesn't mean she didn't take breaks, her best friends Yellow, blue and Sapphire always drag her away for some relaxation from time to time.

Crystal didn't mind constantly being busy, it was always a challenge to see how many people she could help while helping others. People may think that's a lot of work, but Crystal loved every second of it.

Crystal looked up at the library's clock to see it was almost time to help out of the shop. She got up and got her things ready. "Sorry girls, gotta go help out at my mom's shop did you guys get everything?",She asked looking at her friends.

Yellow and Blue nodded while working on their assignment. "You go do what you gotta do Chris",Blue said using her nickname. Crystal nodded then turned to her sleeping best friend and sighed.

"Sapphire."

"Zzz..."

"Sapphire...!"

"Zzz.."

"..Ruby is making a dress for you-"

Sapphire immediately sat up, "OH HELL NO!!!"

"SHHHHHHH!!!",The librarian glared at them as sapphire sat back down with a 'sorry'.

Blue and Yellow quietly giggled as Sapphire rubbed her sleepy sapphire colored eyes. "Sorry Crystal...looks like i fell asleep again",she said smiling sheepishly.

"Yeah, looks like..text me any questions you have and I'll see what I can help with. I have to go now, see you girls later!",Crystal said speed walking out of the library.

Crystal got her bike and started to pedal away from the school. She skidded her bike to a stop when she saw her family's shop sign approaching.

             'Mirei's Flower shop'

Not the most unique name, but the shop sold some pretty flowers that were actually healthy. That would be because Crystal grew the flowers herself.

Crystal parked her bike and unlocked the shop. The shop had glass walls and glass doors so she could keep an eye on her bike if anyone tried taking it. However, the glass walls were for the customers so they could see the flowers from the outside. Sure they had some flowers out for display, but it was mostly so the plants had sunlight.

Crystal entered the shop and switched the 'sorry we're closed' sign around to the 'yes! We're open' one.

She quickly checked up on all the flowers then put on a green apron with the shops name on the side of her chest. She tied the knot on the apron then waited.

As if on cue, a old man walked in and greeted Crystal. "Crystal! You've grown a lot these past three weeks! Im sorry i haven't come by in a while, I was by my wife's side the whole time she was at the hospital",the old man said walking to the counter.

Crystal smiled. "It's alright, how is she doing?",She asked. "Just fine she says...but I know my wife, she knows she doesn't have much time left. She just worries about leaving me alone, but i keep telling her I still have this shop and our pets!",he said laughing and Crystal laughed a bit with him.

"Oh I shouldn't take much of your time should I? I would like some flowers that would tell my wife 'thank you' for staying at my side for this long. You know how she is with the meaning of flowers, im sure she'd get what I mean with the right one",he said as Crystal nodded.

"For that, I would saaay...",Crystal said walking out of the counter and looking at the flowers then gently grabbed two roses. Not the cliche red ones no, these roses were pink and peach.

She walked towards the old man and handed them to him. "While there are other flowers in this shop that say 'thank you', i know your wife loves roses so i'd say these would be best",she said smiling as the old man nodded.

"You're right, thank you crystal",he said as he paid for the flowers and left the shop. Throughout the day there were many customers coming by and thanks to crystal, they all found what they were looking for.

The little bell to the shop sounded which made crystal look up from arranging a order of a bouquet of tulips. There a boy with black hair and gold eyes stood. His eyes skimmed through the flowers on display, a hat on his head which was turned back. His bangs were abnormally large and in a floaty way. Crystal wasn't one to judge though, her ponytails weren't exactly following gravity's rules either.

He had the uniform from crystal's school on which immediately gave away that they went to the same school. His eyes kept looking through the flowers and Crystal decided to give him a helping hand.

"Can I help you?",She asked approaching him. "Huh? Oh yeah sure",He said blinking as if he just realized there was someone else in there. He turned to crystal then blinked again and looked her up and down.

Crystal raised an eyebrow. What was he doing? The guy looked back at her and smirked. "The name's gold by the way...what's your name cutie?"

"...Crystal",She answered. Her eye twitching a bit.

What.

Did.

He.

Just.

Call.

Her?

"Oh you're that super serious girl who helps too many people at once! I didn't know you'd be hot",he said still smirking.

"...thanks? Now what flowers were you looking for?",she asked trying her best to not assault the customer.

"Hm...white lilies should be all I'm looking for",he said. 'Should be?',Crystal thought. Crystal walked behind him and crouched to a display of lilies. She spotted the white ones and handed them to gold.

Crystal thought that once he bought them he'd leave. But no. He decided to flirt while he paid for them. Thankfully, it didn't take long for Crystal to ring him up meaning that with one last pick up line, gold left.

"What a day",Crystal sighed as she got Ready to close up shop.

Yaaaaay another story! I'm not very informed on flowers so I'll probs do something wrong with them soon...xD anyway i cringed while writing when gold said "hot". I just...ugghhhhh....anyway I hope you enjoy the story!
