Chloe closed her eyes and breathed in deeply through her nose. "Mmmmm." She hummed, a small smile appearing on her face. Opening her eyes she looked down and her smile grew. As pretty as they are she couldn't hold in the chuckle that grew in her throat. They barely fit. She thought about separating them in two vases so they wouldn't look quite so... well… silly, but she just couldn't.
She meant what she said about getting flowers like these, it's been a while. Actually she can't be sure that she's ever been given such beautiful flowers before. Sure she's been given the occasional pretty bouquet before, but none of them were quite so extravagant. Take Bart for example. He would drop by and give her a hand full of pretty wild flowers that he ran half way around the world for from some place she's never even heard of. And Clark. He used to give her flowers back in high school. She couldn't count how many times she'd gotten simple little bouquets from him. Given, she was almost always in the hospital when she got them… but still. Then there's Jimmy. He would give her lovely bouquets before dates or after having fights, but nothing to out there. He was a photographer at the Planet. It's not like he made all that much to spend on a big bouquet of roses. So thus far she hasn't needed to have a big vase.
Even though they barely fit, she left them as they are. Silly as they look stuffed in her small vase, she wanted them to look the same as when Oliver gave them to her. She would just have to plan on getting a bigger vase in the future. Knowing Oliver, these won't be the last she will ever get from him.
With that thought she went back to working. And throughout the day she would glance over at the table in front of the stained glass windows that held the silly flowers. And every time she did, she couldn't help but smile. Yeah, these will definitely not be the last. After all, she's not planning on going anywhere anytime soon.
