Grian walked out of his home onto the bridge connecting his and Mumbo's base, to be welcomed by flowers at his hypothetical front door, seeing how his, 'Rock Temple' didn't have a door.

"Aw how sweet, must be another hermit being silly" Grian looked at the Lilies of the Valley fondly, before bending down and picking up the bouquet, looking for the card saying the name of the person responsible for such a nice gift

Without much trouble he found the card reading,

'These Flowers Symbolize, purity, joy, love, and sincerity. These, Grian, are all things I feel when I see you smile'

Grian could feel his cheeks warm up from reading the end. He hadn't expected the card to say such things. Grian skimmed over the small paper but could find a name? "Huh, maybe this was a Grumbot thing? But I don't see the sign anywhere" Grian decided to ask around if he remembers

He then heard his communicator go off, Signifying that someone was sending messages in the Chat. Grian pulled it out of his pocket to see what it said

GoodTimeWithScar: Good morning!

Grian smiled, thinking of what to reply to the Elf

Grian: Hi Handsome

He smiled triumphantly, knowing Scar wouldn't expect a complement such as that one. He would probably be too flustered to reply. Grian was about to put the small device away when heard a familiar chime

GoodTimeWithScar: Hey light of my life

It was ironic how Grian was the one to flustered to reply, his face heating up and feathers fuffing out

MumboJumbo: Alright Lovebirds, that's enough flirting for now

MumboJumbo: Grian I need your help in the Shopping District

Grian read the message and calmed down, ready to go see what Mumbo needed. But before he flew off he sent Scar a message in their own chat

You whispered to GoodTimeWithScar: <3

When got to the shopping district he saw Mumbo going through a chest and mumbling to himself

"Hello Mumbo'' Grian calls out landing right next to Mumbo, startling the poor man "Oh Hi Grian, wasn't expecting you to get here so fast! Anyway I just wanted your input on somethings''

After about an hour of Grian helping Mumbo, they decided they would take a break

"You seem distracted" Grian looked at Mumbo, interrupted from his thoughts. "Huh? Yeah, Sorry I'm just thinking" He said "If you don't mind me asking, about what?" so He told Mumbo about the flowers, and the card

"Huh, and it didn't have a name?" Mumbo asked "Nope, I was thinking it might've been a Grumbot thing, but there wasn't a sign anywhere indicating that Grumbot was responsible" Grian replied

"Maybe it was another hermit being Romantic? Maybe it was Scar" Mumbo said, teasing Grian when it came to their elven friend. His face becoming red and his wings starting to fluff out of embarrassment "Psh I hi-highly doubt that it was Scar, he-he doesn't even feel that way towards me" he said, dismissing it and playfully shoved Mumbo's shoulder. They just sat there in comfortable silence for a few minutes, giving Grian a chance to calm down and straighten his feathers

"Was there anything else you needed help with?" Grian questioned, standing up and lending out a hand to his friend

"I was wondering if you wanted to maybe show me around, and catch me up on anything I missed while I was away" Mumbo replied, taking his friends hand and standing up

Grian agreed, and so that's how they spent the rest of their day. Flying around while Grian talked about everything that happened while his friend was gone, forgetting about a certain bouquet in his in inventory

_____________________________

The next week Grian was welcomed by a familiar sight, a bouquet of blue Orchids this time but still no name

Week after week, always on different days, Grian would find different flowers each time with a card saying what they symbolized, The blue Orchids card said, 'blue Orchids symbolize peace and uniqueness. You, Grian, are the most unique and wonderful person I know' and so on. He received Tulips, Cornflowers, and Lilacs. It was the fifth week, on Saturday and Grian was yet to receive a flower

And so Grian got an idea, he would stay outside to finally see who was giving him all of these flowers. It was currently 12:04 AM and Grian was trying to stay awake while sitting atop the N.A.R rock above his base

He was about to call it a night when he saw a figure glide down onto the entrance of his base, holding a bouquet of all different kinds of flowers. There were Roses, Tulips, and Sunflowers. Grian may not know to much about flowers, but Scott had told Grian what those three usually symbolized romance, and Grian became ecstatic when he saw who was holding the flowers

Scars POV

It was sunday morning, Scar was getting some breakfast when he heard a knock at his door, causing Jellie to startle awake from her bed

Scar walked to his front door, opening it to see Grian on his front step, seemingly nervous

"Well hello there Grian! What can I do you for this fine morning" Scar welcomed with a smile, Jellie coming outside and started rubbing against the avian

Grian crouched to pet her, giving her a smile

"Hello Scar, and hello to you to Jellie"

"Would you like to come in? I was gonna make some bread if you want some" Scar offered

"Yes, if it's um- not too much trouble" Grian replied shyly "Not at all!" Scar and Grian entered the elven home with Jellie tailing right behind them

Grian was sat at the island while scar was getting bread in the kitchen with his back facing Grian "So, not that I don't love your company, what made you stop by so sudd-" Scar's sentence was cut short when he turned around to see Grian holding a big bouquet in his hands holding it up in scars direction, his face red. In the bouquet were Tulips, Lilies of the valley, blue Orchids, Roses, Sunflowers, Lilies, and Cornflowers. The same kind of flowers that Scar had given him through out the previous weeks

"I wanted to thank you, for um, all the kind things you said before, and the flowers" Grian said, looking anywhere other than scar

Scar could feel his cheeks warming up

"How did you find out it was me?" Questioned, taking the bouquet "I saw you last night" Grian replied "I was also wondering? if you would like to go on a date with me?" He asked shyly. Scar felt as if he could reach for the stars, he was ecstatic

"Yes! ahem, I mean yes, I would love to Grian"

Scar held the flowers in his hand, he found it ironic how in the end, he was the one holding flowers
