🌹 Rose Giving Tale as Old as Time

[Marie Allard]

For her third delivery of the day, to another person who’s name she didn’t recognize, that she assumed must have been older than her, Marie headed from the great hall to the entrance hall, hoping to run into this ‘Jace Blade’ among the crowds of students walking around. “Jace Blade I have a rose for you from a friend!” Marie called out, looking around for some kind of a reaction. The people on her delivery list had such interesting names, the surname blade making Marie think of pirates and sword fights, and king Arthur drawing the sword from the stone and Merlin teaching him how to be a king. She wished her name could sound as cool as that, and hoped that Jace would live up to his awesome sounding surname when she delivered him his yellow rose.​

Jace looked up as somebody mentioned his name, saying that he had a rose delivery. It could only be from Padme, and the thought brought a large smile to his face. "Hey, that's me!" He said with a grin, approaching the girl calling his name.

When an older boy approached and smiled at her, confirming he was the Jace Blade she was looking for, Marie jumped up and down. “Yay!!” She reached into her basket to find the yellow rose meant for him and handed that over along with the note. "Here you go!" She then stood rocking back and forth on her feet as she watched for the boy’s reaction, he was older and seemed kind, definitely the exact person she imagined when she read his name and thought of king Arthur and knights in shining armor. She was happy to be part of his valentine’s day fairy tale.​
