Continuation of my last post about Flower Delivery Girl!Julie where she works at her family’s flower shop, The Petal Pushers, and ends up with making regular deliveries to Luke.
Note the title is silly. Does not allude to anything else :)
Julie has no clue how one favor for a friend could lead to all of this.
Ever since her brief stint as a singing telegram as well delivery girl, she’s now playing this… game? Yeah, game is the appropriate word for it. This ‘game’ with Luke Patterson.
And it would go like this:
There would be a delivery for Luke Patterson, Julie would drop it off, wondering why yet another flower arrangement is being delivered to a 17 year old boy on what seems to be on a regular basis, he offers her a flower, she declines, then leaves.
Julie’s only the messenger, she doesn’t see who keeps ordering them for Luke or if Luke’s ordering these for someone. She doesn’t check the card.
Or she would if there is one. There would usually be a card with each order. Tía nowadays just hands over the flowers with a telling arch of her brows and Julie instantly knows she’s pedaling those to Sunset Curve’s garage.
But she’s convinced that it really is Luke calling in and making the orders because every delivery she makes to him is always different and every time she would give it to him, he would always ask if they were her favorites.
Julie found the whole thing amusing, toying with him. But she had made numerous attempts in the past to get him to stop. She couldn’t imagine what kind of strain this would have on his wallet (flowers ain’t cheap), and she didn’t plan to string him on like that. It wasn’t fair.
Wait this isn’t real and you haven’t written it yet?! Why not! Start writing!
Retro for @jukebox-week (AU based on the 1999 movie Drive Me Crazy)
Popular Girl Julie Molina just got dumped, right before the big dance she's been helping to plan. She's desperately considering her options for a replacement date when the perfect candidate occurs to her...her decidedly less popular childhood friend and neighbor, Luke Patterson. It just so happens that he just got dumped too and wants nothing more than to make his ex jealous and win her back. What better way to solve both problems than to pretend to date and make each other extra desirable to everyone watching? What they didn't count on are the real feelings that are starting to grow between them...
(Go watch this movie if you haven't seen it and let me know if this is another romcom au I need to write 😂)

Ok excuse me you didn’t have to wreck me that hard. Luke’s grief was palpable throughout and it broke my heart
Every person was a mosaic made up of other people and memories from the second they were born till the moment they died. Winding and colourful and complex - never ugly.
Luke never considered what would happen if a sledgehammer came down and shattered a hole into that mosaic. A gaping wound the size of a man like him.
And he certainly never considered that happening to Julie.
