hi, dear. ( a smile to greet. ☺️. ) lost?

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

( she leans into the kiss, smiling as he pulls away, and a bit disappointed when he walks away from her. )

( she had already planned on following him back there, almost like a clingy puppy. so when he calls her over, she’s quick to come, appearing beside him in just a moment. )

best ones to nab. sidetracked as he glances around — it was quite discreet. empty, even. calling out. )

.. come here for a second.

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

( she scoots to the side for him to see, she already has a few miscellaneous bottles sealed up underneath, ready to go. )

stronger ones are in the back. ☺️.

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

( the presentation of the flowers has her melting, quickly accepting them and smelling them. a pleased hum as she pulls away and places them in front of her on her workspace. )

aw, hendrick.. these are so beautiful. i love them. go ahead and take a look, have whatever you want.

( only now does he get around to offering his roses, fresh and pruned nicely for display. an elegant floral smell to them and by association himself. )

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

@projectlathes good. give me a kiss, my dear. 🩵

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

@projectlathes awh. i’d hope you’d think so.

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

hm. do you need a a prescription, my love? consider it my treat. on the house, you could say.

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

( cheeks stain a soft, rosy pink. she reaches his take his hand, running fingers down his own. )

mm. very busy, dear doctor. it’s always a pleasure to see you? it makes all my time spent alone down here worth it. i wish i could see you all the time.

[◞ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 ⸝⸝ @projectlathes]

⠀
⠀⠀you, dear nurse.

( that expression is everything he wanted, leaning down to bless her cheek with a polite kiss. he never wanted to make a public spectacle. )

.. how have you been? is work exciting enough for you? keeping you busy?
⠀

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

@projectlathes hello dear. ☺️

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

around. instead met by one of her favorite sights, her face lights up, eyes shining and smiling. )

ah, my favorite doctor! what a lovely surprise. what brings you down here?

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

( she had been totally oblivious before he let himself be known, humming softly as she flipped through the same old pages again and again. )

hm?

( she had thought it would be another doctor that needed her, so she slides her bookmark in and closes the book quickly to turn

[◞ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 ⸝⸝ @projectlathes]

wanting to reveal himself before she organically discovered him. he has a bouquet of classic red roses in his free hand. )

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀flash before my eyes
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ now it's time to die.

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

i’d hope not.

( she brings one of his hands to her cheek, holding it there and leaning into it. )

i love you, hendrick. you have my whole heart. i wish i could give it to you on a silver platter.

[◞ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 ⸝⸝ @projectlathes]

⠀
⠀⠀oh, emily ..

( his heart practically swells, savouring and revelling in his own importance. )

you're so cute. you know that, don't you? there will never be another you in my life.
⠀

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

i can’t say no to you.. i want you all to myself. i hate seeing you with others. it tears my heart to pieces. i know it’s selfish but i can’t help myself.

[◞ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 ⸝⸝ @projectlathes]

⠀
⠀⠀perhaps but .. i want to hear it in that sweet voice of yours. i want the honey of your vocal chords to seep into the palette of my heart.
⠀

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

i feel that should be obvious, no?

( tight squeeze followed by an innocent smile, maybe a little creepy? )

[◞ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 ⸝⸝ @projectlathes]

⠀
⠀⠀( cheeks warm with just a little colour, disregarding whatever she had asked him in favour of his own personal agenda. )

ah .. elaborate. tell me why you wouldn't want such a thing.
⠀

[𝘯𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘸 @blessedbarlow]

if that were the case no one could keep their hands of you. it may be selfish, but i don’t want that.

( finishing up with her massage, yet she doesn’t pull away, instead keeping his hands encased in her own. gently rubbing with her thumbs. )

mm. how are you feeling now? better?

[◞ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 ⸝⸝ @projectlathes]

⠀
⠀⠀if only everyone could see me the way you do ..

( a melancholic exhale, each finger tended to and loved with care — it felt nice to be pampered. if it didn't take him as feminine then perhaps he'd demand it from everyone at anytime. )
