🌹 Rose Giving Red aka The Best Colour Option

[Juniper Veritas]

Juniper was full of nerves about delivering roses. When she'd signed up for it she hadn't realized what it meant necessarily. Not until she had been handed roses to deliver personally to someone and now she had to do that. Starting with the easiest one she walked up to Freddie in the Ravenclaw house table and sheepishly tapped him on the shoulder. "Hey I have a rose for you."

Freddie still hadn't started his deliveries. He was going to, soon - his roses were standing in the water jug in front of him - but he didn't wanna do it while everyone else was doing it. The corridors were too busy. People would look at him, and he hated that. So he was waiting.

A tap on his shoulder made him look around. Oh. Really? Juni had a rose for him? Didn't he have one for her? He pulled a yellow rose out of the jug and double-checked the name. Yep. Juniper Veritas. "Swap?" he said.​

Juniper blinked a few times confused. Swap? Then she looked down at the yellow rose, oh she had a rose for her? That was sweet, she didn't know hat someone would want to send her a rose. With a small smile she nodded. "Sure, here you go." Juni spoke softly, offering the red rose and its note to Freddie.

Spoiler: Note for Freddie Lagowski

It's not a red rose because I love you or anything gross like that. I just think red is the best colour of the three. It's Ruby by the way.

Freddie handed the yellow rose, still dripping everywhere, to Juniper. Whoa - his was red? Maybe it was from Declan. Declan would do that. He dried his hand on his shirt and unwrapped the note. A grin grew across his face as he read. As soon as he saw the name, he burst out laughing. He'd forgotten what he sent her, but he suddenly remembered now. That was funny. "It's Ruby. Where is she?" he asked, half standing up, then changing his mind and sitting back down again. She probably didn't get his rose yet. He'd go find her later. "Who's yours from?"​

Spoiler: Note for Juniper Veritas

I hope any ice skating related bruises have healed! ~ Zeke

Juniper took her rose and opened the note at the same time as Freddie burst out laughing. The laugh startled her just a bit but a smile grew on her face never the less. "Oh I don't know, I saw her in the morning though. She's my dormmate." She explained before reading her note again, she hadn't realized people would send roses to her but it felt nice.

Pocketing her note she looked back up at Freddie. "It's from Zeke, we ice skated during the yule ball." Juni explained, internally cringing at the memory of her single handedly taking both of them down. She'd had a few bruises but all of them had healed long since.
