Open Rose's

[Lizzie Parker-Taylor]

(Yellow for Rose Holland, open after Daphne)

Lizzie’s next rose couldn’t be for someone more familiar, and part of her was cursing herself for not dropping this one off right away. That would ruin some of the fun of the hand delivery though, so Lizzie was perfectly happy to drop this one off, making her way over to her own house table. This would give her good time to have breakfast as well, so Lizzie dropped into the seat next to Rose, smiling brightly. “How’s it going?” She grinned, wondering if Rose was having as much fun with the event they had organised together as she was. “Got a delivery for you.”

In between deliveries, Rose had decided she needed to eat something. She was eating quickly, as she knew she still had a lot to do. So when Lizzie sat down next to her, she had to chew a large bite of food before she could answer. "It's going okay! Did you run into any problems?" She asked, wondering if Lizzie had approached her for that reason. But it soon became clear that wasn't the case. Rose straightened up as Lizzie told her she had a delivery for her. "Oh, really? GImme!"

Lizzie couldn't resist laughing a little at the sight of Rose struggling to finish her mouthful, resisting the urge to tease her a little. She shook her head in response to Rose's question, smiling happily. "Everything's golden so far. Including..." She grinned, reaching into her basket and pulling out a bright yellow rose. "This rose for you!" Lizzie said brightly, handing it over. "Happy Valentines Day!"

Thanks for being such a great friend! Pajama party soon?

Rose was happy to hear the deliveries had gone well so far, and beamed in delight as Lizzie produced a yellow rose for her to take. "Thank you!" She said, taking it from her. "Happy Valentine's Day to you as well. Have you gotten any yet?" She asked as she unfolded the note. She had seen Lizzie was going to get at least a few, so felt confident in asking the question. She grinned widely at the note she received. "Man, I hope I have time to thank everyone who sent me a rose this year." She said, remembering that she hadn't sent Corrine one herself. She had tried to keep the ones she sent at a low number, but now she felt a little bad. She definitely would take her friend girl up on the pajama party idea. Maybe she could even discuss the pink rose she had received with her. She seemed less likely to tease Rose than Harley did. And she might give some good advice. "Good luck with the rest of your deliveries, Lizzie!"

Lizzie smiled back, enjoying the happiness on Rose's face. She laughed and shook her head at Rose's question, thinking with warmth about how many times she had seen her own name on the delivery list. "Not yet, but the day's still young." Lizzie smiled, excited to see who had thought of her. Roses coming Lizzie's direction had been in short supply in the past, but her deliveries had always kept her distracted, and it was nice in her final year, to know that there were a few people who had thought of her. She smiled at Rose's comment, shaking her head. "Thanks, but they'll have to wait." She said, reaching for some toast. "I'm starving..."
