Triggers: None

Its a simple and clear day in Turffield. The sun is shining and basking the town with it's warms rays. The shops were open and people are walking around, enjoying their day. One of these shops was a flower shop that was a bit more popular than the rest, mainly because it's often visited by the gym leader Milo. Sometimes it's just because he loves to look at the flowers every chance he gets but it's actually because he can look at the person who runs the store, and that person... was you

One day, one of Milo's Wooloo escaped from their pen and was rolling all around Turffield. As Milo was chasing it he noticed it was heading toward the popular flower shop, and coming outside of it was the person he loves to see, holding a watering can. The Wooloo keeps rolling until it hit you at your knees, fortunately Wooloo's is so soft and fluffy that it doesn't hurt you. Milo was then finally able to catch up and picks up Wooloo. "Hey. Are you hurt or anything?" Milo asks you. You smile at him and nod. "Yeah, I'm fine Milo. Wooloo is so soft it didn't leave a scratch." You said to Milo to which he responds with a simple smile.

Then you hear something in the distance, and a shadow looms above you. A bug pokemon with white and black wings flutters down to your level, holding a small packet. "Ah, Butterfree! You got the seeds from Motostoke! Thank you for doing that for me." You said as gently stroke Butterfree's head, to which it smiles and giggles lightly in response. "Where are those seeds from?" Milo asks. "Oh, these seeds are from Sinnoh. These seeds are mainly found in Eterna City, and the flowers there are absolutely beautiful from what I've seen. It's because the gym leader in Sinnoh really loves plants." You say with your eyes seeming to look all aglow. You were so busy talking about the Eterna City gym leader, you didn't notice that Milo had a small frown on his face, barely noticeable to anyone.

Once you stopped talking about the Eterna City gym leader, you look at Milo and see his slight frown. You start to feel bad and put your hand on his shoulder. Milo then looks at you and his frown turns into a smile. "I'm sorry Milo, I didn't know talking about the gym leader would upset you." You said with a soft smile on your face. Milo shakes his head and grabs your hand that was placed on his shoulder. "No it's alright. I didn't mean to look upset. But I should head back to the gym and get Wooloo back in it's pen." He says and Wooloo 'bah's' in response. In all honesty you didn't want Milo to go, because you had a crush on him for quite some time now. Suddenly a thought comes to your head and before Milo could turn and leave you grab his shirt, to which Milo turns his head to you.

"Wait Milo, before you go why don't I give you a tour of the shop? Y-You never been inside so I thought I could show you around." You say with a slight stutter in you words. Milo thinks for a second and smiles at you. "Sure. I would like a tour, just let me let out Yamper right quick." Milo then grabs a poke ball and throws it to release Yamper. "Yamper, can you get Wooloo back to it's friends and family back at the pen?" Milo asks Yamper and Yamper responds with a excited bark. Milo then releases Wooloo and Wooloo follows Yamper back to the pen. "Alright I'm ready for that tour." Milo says to you and a slight blush goes on your face. "A-Alright. Let me show you around." You say but you then look at Butterfree and thought of a good idea. "Hey Butterfree, go with Yamper and Wooloo and make sure it gets back to the pen." You said to Butterfree and it nods and follows Yamper and Wooloo. "Alright then Milo. Follow me." You then open the door and let Milo inside.

Once he enters the store he is awe on the amount of different types of flowers that are in the store. He then looks around the store, seeing Calendulas, Hydrangeas, Chrysanthemums, etc. There were so many flowers in so many different colors, it could bring a tear to the eyes. "Welcome to Flower Fantasia! One of the best flower shops in Galar!" You said to Milo as excited as you can be. "It's beautiful huh?" You ask Milo. "Yeah. It's absolutely stunning." He says in awe. You then walk to the back of the store and seen two more Pokémon in the store. A Bulbasaur and a Totodile. "Well hey you two. You came in just in time. I just got the seeds from Sinnoh and I'm gonna need some help. Wanna help me?" You ask them and they nod in agreement. Milo notices the two pokemon you were taking to, but he didn't know what kind of pokemon they were.

"Alright, Bulbasaur can you grab me a terracotta pot from the shelves while I grab the soil?" You ask Bulbasaur and it's response sounds like a 'yes'. Bulbasaur then grabs the pot you asked for and you grab the soil. Bulbasaur then places the pot on the nearest counter and you put the soil into the pot. You then put the one of the seeds you got from Butterfree gently into the soil, and covered the seed with the soil. "Now Totodile, please water it gently." You ask Totodile and it nods and shouts out a small stream of water and waters the soil gently, as asked. Totodile then stops the water and smile at you. "Great job! Thank you for your help." You say to both Totodile and Bulbasaur and they smile at you. You then to Milo, who was also smiling.

"So this is how you work the place?" He asks and you nod. "Yeah, but normally I would also have a Beautifly and Gossifluer with me. But right now they are doing a poke job, helping some farmers with their crops." You said to Milo. "So these two pokemon, what are they?" Milo asks and your eyes widen a bit. "Wait... you don't know about Bulbasaur and Totodile?" You ask Milo and he shakes his head. "Well Bulbasaur is a grass type from Kanto and Totodile is a water type from Johto. In fact my dad and mom are from those regions respectively." You said and Milo was intrigued. "Really? So you're not from Galar?" He asks and you shake your head. "No, I was born in Kanto but I moved here when I was ten."

Milo was now very interested about your past. "What was it like in Kanto? And how do you get Totodile and Bulbasaur?" He asks you. You look back in your memories and you remember it clearly. "Kanto... it was very beautiful. Lively, busy, but also very dangerous. Back in Kanto there was this terrible team organization called Team Rocket, and they stole other people's pokemon. It was trying to the point where it wasn't safe in Kanto anymore. That's why we moved here to Galar." You said. "Wow... that's crazy. A evil organization that steals pokemon? I never thought there was a group that does that." Milo says. "Yeah but not long after we moved we found out that Team Rocket disbanded thanks to a very strong trainer, but we decided to stay rather than go back." You said and Milo smiles. "Well that's good. Otherwise we wouldn't have met."

When he said that you couldn't help but blush yourself. "So what got you into flowers?" Milo asks. "Oh, well my parents actually. My mom was very close to water types and my dad was close to grass types. And when they first met it was at a flower shop and since they both loved flowers so much, it was already meant to be. When they had me I was very close to bug types, because it seemed like every bug type Pokémon liked me. Eventually they taught me everything about flowers and it's basically a part of me now." You said. You then look at Milo and see that his smile hasn't gone away, your blush got a little redder but you still smile.

Milo then looks around the store and gets an idea. "Hey, can I ask for your help?" Milo says. "Hm? Sure. What do you need help with?" You say and Milo takes a quick breath. "Well... there's someone I like but I don't know how to tell them I like them. So I was hoping you could help me pick a flower that will get the point across?" Your heart began to sink and break. But you weren't surprised, after all he was a gym leader and so many people love him. As much as you loved him yourself, you wanted to help him, as long as he was happy, you were happy. You then show a small smile to Milo. "Sure Milo. I'll be glad to help. You then walk over to him and show you to a table that was covered fully with different flowers.

"Alright, on this table we have Orchids, Chrysanthemums, Carnitons... is there a certain color or flower that they want?" You ask Milo. "I don't know... they never told me their favorite flower. What do you recommend?" He asks you. "Hmmm... well it's always best to make it straightforward. So I think it's best to go with my favorite... the Rose. Anyone that knows the meaning of the Rose knows that it means love. So if you want to tell them you like them, I'll go with the Rose." You say as you hand Milo a bouquet of roses. "Thanks. How much do I owe you?" He asks. You shake your head. "Don't worry about it. It's on the house." You said. "Really? But I-" you interrupt Milo. "Milo, this is for someone you love. And I'm going to support you no matter what. So please... take it." You said although Milo was resistant, he eventually complied. He then thanks you and heads out of the store. As you watch him leave the store you could still feel your heart breaking. Bulbasaur and Totodile notice that a couple of tears were falling from your face and Bulbasaur uses it's vines to dry them. Once you felt the vines touch your face you look at them and smile. "Don't worry. I'm fine. As long as Milo is happy.... I'm happy." Yet deep in your heart, that was the opposite.

Then the day turns to night and the moon was out and full. You just closed the shop for the day, with Butterfree, Bulbasaur, and Totodile in their pokeballs. You walk home on one of the paths that was lit up by the moonlight, and eventually get to you house, but there was something you saw on your front porch. It... was a bouquet of roses. "Huh?" You then walk to your porch and pick up the bouquet and inspect it. "This.... This is the bouquet of roses Milo had. But... why is it here?" You ask yourself. "Wait... did his crush not like them?! Were they not the right flowers?! Did they have bugs on them?!" You were freaking out, until you felt a hand on your shoulder. "EEEK!" You quickly turn around and see Milo. "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. You okay?" He asks you. "Y-Yeah I'm fine, just let me calm down." You take a few deep breaths and you calm down. "Alright. I'm better." You then look at the bouquet and frown. "Did... they not like the flowers?" You ask Milo, who just shakes his head. "I don't know. Because they just got them." Milo said with a smile.

"Wait... what?"

You were confused for a moment, but then you finally realize what he meant. Your face blushes red and Milo leans in. "Those flowers were for you. I've liked you for a long time now and I thought this was the best way to confess." Milo said. You couldn't think of what to say, but you also realized something. "Wait... that's why you wanted my opinion on the flowers! You wanted to know my favorite! You sneaky little farmer!" You said playfully. Milo chuckles a little and leans in close to your face. "You're spot on." You smile at him and get closer. "You goofball." You then hug him, your arms around his bulky figure. He hugs you back, soft and tenderly. It was warm. You pull back slightly so you could see his face. "This entire situation... it feels like a dream. A fantasy. I honestly still can't believe it." You said and Milo smiles at you, his face getting closer to you.

"When I'm with you, I feel like the grass is always greener. So... will you stay by my side?" Milo asks you, his face soft with kindness and love for you. You smile back softly and nod with blush going across your face. "Yes. I'd love to Milo." You said and both you lean close and kiss each other tenderly on the lips. The kiss felt like an eternity, the love with it was so warm and strong, yet you felt so weak the longer it continued. But you didn't want the kiss to stop and the kiss kept getting more and more passionate. Your body was getting hot, the pleasure coming from the kiss was too much. You just want to keep going.

But Milo pulls away, both of your faces were flushed. "As much as I want to keep going. It's getting late. I should get home." Milo says with a frown on his face. And before he could turn around, you pull him toward you with a smile. "Stay with me. I don't want you to go. Please?" You ask as you make puppy dog eyes. Milo was helpless when you looked like that, he couldn't refuse. "Alright then. But be prepared for a wild night." Milo smirks. "I'm ready as I'll ever be." And you both went into the house, and you both enjoyed each other's company and something much more later that night.
