"Ouch! Mr. Lopez, where on earth did you pick up those roses?" Dorothy remained silent, but it was Karen who covered her mouth to stifle a laugh, "Feeling a bit jealous that my girl Dorothy got flowers from someone?"
Everett stepped forward, placing the bouquet at Dorothy's feet.
Dorothy thought Everett wouldn't indulge Karen's teasing, but to her surprise, he nodded. "Yeah, a little."
Karen opened her mouth to retort, but Jeffrey swiftly whisked her away.
"Come on, don't be a third wheel!"
With Karen and Jeffrey around, Dorothy hadn't felt too embarrassed. But once they were gone, she was so flustered she couldn't even look Everett in the eye.
"I told you, you didn't have to buy flowers."
"I know, but I couldn't let someone else show me up."
Hopelessly, Dorothy's gaze fell on the lush roses. "You just got to Everglow City. When did you even have time to order flowers?"
"Before boarding the plane."
"That early?"
Back then, he hadn't even discussed the idea of exchanging favors for dating her! So, he must have been certain she would agree all along.
"Dorothy, whatever you want, just let me know."
If it were within his power, he wouldn't hesitate. Not for roses or anything...
"Yeah, I get it."
"You don't get it." Everett raised his hand, gently caressing her cheek. "I mean everything. Anything you want."
He never wanted Dorothy to give him anything; he just wanted her to believe that for her, he would do anything.
...
Jeffrey not only arranged for a barbecue but also set up a bonfire.
Trust a party pro to set the mood!
After the meal, they sat around the fire, and Karen suggested, "How about we play a game?"
