Work Text:
Peony loved going to the Waterbank Festival. It was her favourite one with the year, and made even better this year by all of the adorable children visiting the booth opposite, doing a form of sand craft that made them giggle with glee.
It was a good attraction for its stall too, since children loved cute mini bouquets and parents were always up for a “grow your own”- sunflowers, houseplants.
Still, the stall next door wasn’t quite as interesting as the auburn haired woman Peony kept on watching, walking past the stalls in a green outfit that reminded it of an elf. She just couldn’t stop herself staring.
She saw her the next day. Peony had the exact same stall set up, again next to the lovely couple with the children’s stand. She saw their daughter and her partners too.
By the time the day was done, Peony was feeling pleasantly accomplished, but she hadn’t seen the auburn haired lady since before lunch.
As she started to pack up, she heard a voice, “Hello.”
Peony looked up, and gasped. It was the lady she’d seen, “Hi! Welcome to Peony’s Pots and Plants, how may I help you?”
“I’m Leah,” she sounded slightly nervous, “I saw your stall a lot today, but you were always busy.”
It giggled, “It’s been a good weekend. I noticed you earlier. Did you want to buy any flowers?”
“I just wanted to tell you I like your hair,”
Peony flushed self-consciously, “Thank you! Yours is really pretty, too.”
Leah smiled at her, “Would you like some flowers?”
“That’s my line-” Peony’s eyes widened, “Oh are you, asking me out?”
Leah nodded, “I was.”
“Then yes!”
