🌹 a bouquet of red roses with a single blue silk rose in the center

Anna gasped softly when she saw the roses at the table, her eyes widening. Her expression grew considerably more gentle as she let her fingers ghost along the beautiful pedals, though her eyes had fallen to the blue one in the middle. 

A small smile graced her features, reaching to pluck the flower from the middle, her smile growing before she went to the scissors, cutting the stem so it was shorter before placing it in her hair, wanting it to be closer to her than the rest. 

When Syx saw the flower in her hair he grinned, reaching up to brush his fingers over the silk flower, “Blue is for impossible and fantastic beyond belief,” he explained, “Because there is no such thing as a blue rose in nature,” his fingers dropped to trace the line of her jaw, “As impossible as a blue man on an alien planet. As impossible as my tiger, so perfect and strange in all the best ways,” his lips found hers, soft and sweet, “I love you.”
