Chapter 2: The Bouquet of Roses
The next day, Magenta and Danny were past the park. Magenta held her rabbit doll, Marabel, as Danny and her kept walking until a boy held a bouquet of roses.
"Eh?" Magenta said then the boy smiled at her. He was very beautiful and he wore glasses.
"For you, mademoiselle..." He said kindly then Magenta blinked and blushed. She took the bouquet and smiled.
"Merci." She said then the boy smiled. Danny glared at the boy then he looked around to see if people were watching him. He turned invisible and went into the boy. The boy gasped and suddenly fell back and landed in a bucket of water, making him stuck. Danny came out of the boy and giggled as he became visible.
"Danny!" Magenta softly hissed then she hit him with the bouquet of roses.
"Ouch! Careful! Those things have thorns..."
"That wasn't nice of you, Danny..." Magenta said then she gave him the bouquet and helped the boy.
"I am so sorry about what happen..."
"Oh, that's okay... I'm just glad you liked the bouquet. See, we overstocked on so many roses, we decided to give them out for free."
"Oh. So the bouquet wasn't your way of asking me out?"
"Eh?" The boy said, adjusting his glasses then he stood up and shook his hands.
"N-n-n-n-n-no! I would never come between a woman and a man dating. I am a gentleman, and gentlemen would never steal another man's woman, no matter how beautiful they look..."
The last sentence made Magenta blush, then Danny grabbed her arm and they both continued walking.
"Danny! What has gotten into you?" Magenta yelled as she pulled away from Danny. Danny didn't say anything which made the half vampire worried.
"Danny?" She called then she walked up towards him and Danny had tears in his eyes.
"H-hey... Why are you crying...?"
"Because... I hate it when guys look at you all flirty like... How would you feel if girls did that to me...?" Danny said, wiping his eyes then Magenta looked at him sadly. She rubbed her head under his chin and buried her face on his shirt.
"I'd probably feel the same as well... I even might go a little far and end up killing any girl who looks at you or even flirts at you..."
Danny smiled then he kissed Magenta's head.
"Come, let's get these roses in some water." He said then Magenta nodded, smiling happily now that her boyfriend wasn't upset. At the flower shop, the boy who gave Magenta that bouquet of roses took off his glasses and changed out of his uniform.
"Ah, Seth." A man said then the boy looked at the man.
"Yes, boss?"
"I forgot to give you your receipt for those bouquet of roses you bought." The man said as he gave the boy, Seth, a piece of paper.
"Thank you."
"So~ Who were the roses for? A girl perhaps?" the man asked then Seth smiled.
"Mind your own business sir..." He said, bashfully.
