    Summary

    When Aerith Gainsborough's floral refrigerator goes out just days before her ex-fiancé's wedding to the woman of his dreams, she's desperate to salvage the gig, her reputation, and her pride. Cloud Strife goes above and beyond to make things right for the beautiful florist, even if she's oblivious to the fact that he's had a crush on her for over a decade.

    It’s embarrassing to admit that I still haven’t been with another man, even though Zack and I have been broken up for six months. Six months isn’t that long after a broken engagement to feel unsure about re-entering the dating pool. And he was my first… everything. You don’t just get over something like that or feel ready to open yourself up to someone new overnight.

    Though it was plenty of time for Zack to realize his heart had always been with someone else, and that he wanted to marry her instead. With the shortest engagement possible. The exact opposite of how he was with me. He wanted us to enjoy being fiancés, and not rush the process, and kept putting off setting a date.

    At least now I know why.

    All thoughts of my ex-fiancé evaporate when I stroll back into my shop and see Cloud.

    Summary

    He was the last person she expected, and seeing him sent a rush of emotion through her body that flushed her hot and cold all at once.

    The timing seemed so absurd that she wondered for a moment if he was a dream or a hallucination—some phantasmal menace, the same kind that had haunted the corners of her vision for too long after his abrupt, final departure from her life.

    Summary

    Easier to bury all those unresolved feelings too–Heero doesn't want anything under his skin but meat, blood and bone.

    As far as he's considered, and there was constant consideration, still, these emotions simply aren't allowed the space to breathe. Not even in the moments stripped bare of professionalism, like that one time he held her hair when it was windy out as she tried to bite into her cream cheese and salmon bagel. Crumbs all over the sidewalk, her gaze searching, then holding his. Or those five minutes in-between his security debrief and her fundraiser; Relena putting small square patches to the scent glands in her neck and on her wrists before heading out. Unobscured, her scent would leave him dizzy sometimes.

    Heero could find her blind, and has memorized every note: cream, iris, vanilla bean.

    Summary

    Ah, innocence. People say that innocence is a virtue. Perhaps patience is a virtue. The two of them, knowing so little of being normal, may just learn that love is the greatest virtue of all. 1xR. Post Endless Waltz.

    -Apropos (Tekisetsu 適切)-
    Relena looked as if she had just seen a ghost. It could materialize by the sounds, apparently. Words and mouths and people's mind.
