Covent Garden Flowers [Open 2/9]

A very confused Joan showed up on time to open the flower shop. She wondered if there was any reasonable explanation for why she had spent the weekend thinking she was some hippie chick documentary filmmaker named Tibby.

Thanks to her confusion, the E was missing from the sign today. She didn't even think about making a new one.

She'll be happy to help you. And not film you. Promise.

The boy wandered in to the store around lunch time.

"I hear I can send flowers to people through Student Council?"

"Yeah, here's the form," Joan said, handing one of the forms to him, along with a pen.

He spent a few minutes filling out the form and handed it back to Joan.

"Thanks," Joan said, barely glancing at the form. She told him the total.

"You've got that much in your wallet, right Joan?"

Joan's eyes narrowed. "Excuse me?"

"Flowers are forever, remember?"

"Are you kidding me?" Joan said, rolling her eyes. "Who am I sending flowers to and why?"

"Trust me, Joan."

He turned and left before she could protest.

Marco was totally not looking for someone specific, really. "Hey Joan!"

"Marco, hey," Joan said.

Well this wasn't awkward at all.

Marco ran his hand through his hair and focused on a spot on the counter. "So uh, how are you now?"

"No more blue hair," Joan said. "And you?"

"No more" He waved a vague hand around. "Stuff."

"So you weren't exactly you then?" Joan asked.

She was wondering. Because the girlfriend thing had thrown her.

Marco was very carefully studying the counter. "No, not quite. I'm guessing you weren't either?"

"Not at all," Joan said. "I was some weirdo hippie chick named Tibby."

Marco grinned. "But at least you weren't blabbering about alien cheese."

Joan smiled back. "No, I wasn't. So... how much of the stuff you told me... her... was true? You know, for you?"

Marco shrugged. "A bit? The aliens and the bit about my mom still hold. And the government totally has a conspiracy about the cheese." He gave her a small grin. "But ... Rachel would have beat me up given a quarter of a chance." Yeah, past tense there.

"I'm sorry," Joan said.

Marco tried for casual. "My life is weird. But the aliens got defeated and I got to be on national television so all's well that ends well." He searched around for any other topic to switch to. "Any plans for Friday?"

Joan shrugged. "I'm not sure yet. I'm probably supposed to go to the dance since I'm on Student Council."

"Gotothedancewithme?" Marco blurted out and then remembered that actually breathing was a good idea. He's had a long weekend, okay? "Would you like to go to the dance with me?"

The question caught Joan off guard, but she smiled. "Yeah, that would be cool."

Marco grinned. "Awesome. And I promise, I don't have another girlfriend. Even when Angelina Jolie asked." Someone, just smack him already.

Joan chuckled. "That's good to know. But I really don't think I'd blame you if you did say yes to Angelina."

"Yeah, but there's the whole 'adopting 20,000 kids' thing." Marco shook his head. "It's weird being 8 years out of sync."

"Yeah, I can't even imagine what that would be like," Joan said.

"I know, just imagine the cost of diapers." Marco said, going for the wrong thing on purpose with a grin.

Joan rolled her eyes. "I think they can afford it."

You can still order StuCo flowers here (http://joan-notjane.livejournal.com/6160.html)!

Mmmmmm it's Monday again :(
