Bluebells for Reine
by Kureiji Ollie

Standing in front of the front door, Ollie started to fidget nervously.
She took a deep breath as she grips the bouquet of flowers in her hands

She's been staring at the wooden carved "Pavolia" on the door for a quarter of an hour now, yet she just can't bring her body to cooperate.

"Come on, Ollie... It's okay... You got this..."

She said to herself.

It's not her first time bringing Reine a gift though it is her first time bringing her something personal.

Ollie and Reine would often gift each other though mostly in form of edible goods: whether they'd be a little snack or box of pizza.

So, for Ollie to bring a bouqet of blues to Reine... It's a little embarrassing for the little zombie.

She took a deep breath and waited for an answer.

If she was still human, Ollie's face would be flushed the same colour as her hair right now

She curses the fact that even though she's already dead, she still has a functional heart.

A functional heart that's a lot noiser than her own loud voice.

Soft footsteps can be heard beyond the door

Zombies lack the main senses that a normal human has, but for some reason Ollie's hearing became sharp at the thought of Reine nearing.

The doorknbob turned

Ollie gulped at the sight of her genmate's pearly white silky hair.

It never ceases to put an awe in her mouth.

Reine's deep blue then centred and focused on Ollie

She smiled.

"Oh hey, I wasn't expecting you to visit~"

Oh, how Ollie melted at the sound of her gentle voice. It was like a double combo.

Having most of their conversatoin on discord, Ollie would always somehow make it through without dying twice

But seeing Reine right in front of her, talking in the soft way she always does, it's enough to drive Ollie insane.

"What's up? Do you want to come in?"

"M-me? No um.. Actually..." Ollie stuttered

"I was... just p-planning on dropping by to say 'hi' real quick..."

There's no way on earth that Ollie would say that she purposely bought flowers for the peafowl princess.

"Oh! How nice of you! Thanks for dropping by! It's good to see your face after awhile!"

'And it's a blessing for me to see YOUR face'
Ollie silently though to herself.

"S-so um... On my way here uh... I walked past a flower shop..."

"And...?"

"I... I-I got these for you!!" Ollie exclaimed shoving the flowers in front of Reine's face.

"Flowers? For me?"
Reine asked in surprise, eyes widened bewildered.

"Y-yeah... They have your color and...

it reminded me of you

-
... They're called bluebells..."

Reine blushed and smiled, smelling the flowers as she brings it close to her nose.

"They're lovely, Ollie..."
