Summary: Dean has owned the flower shop on the corner of Market and Main for 5 years now and leads a simple existence. He thought he was happy not having any responsibilities, until the day the dark haired, blue eyed stranger walked into his shop. He comes in once a week to buy a flower, and Dean wonders what it’s for, but he never asks. Over the next few months, they become friendlier with each other, and Dean finds himself wondering if they will ever become more.

BONUS!

I never want to come back here again. I fucking hate it here. And they all fucking hate me. I pay for everything. I make sure everyone has clothes they like. I make sure the food is perfect, that Father is buried next to his parents, that the tomb is perfect. And the only fucking word I ever hear is: "I want more, Ilya. I need more, llya. More, more, more." And I have nothing for these people! I give them everything... but I feel fucking empty.

They don't care. They look at me, and they see a bank. Or an enemy. Or...I don't even know what. My brother, he always hated me. And I know why, but... it kills me. And it kills me that he took care of my father, and I didn't. But I couldn't! I wasn't here. I still paid for it all. And he will never forgive me. For any of it. For existing.

And it means...I have no one now. Well, not no one. I have...Svetlana. She loves me. And l love her. But not like...Fuck me. But not like I love you...That's the worst fucking part of all of this is...that all I want is you. It's always you. I'm so in love with you, and I don't know what to do about it.
