Elena enjoyed flowers. Obviously, they were beautiful and smelled wonderful, but they also could help create a calming atmosphere. After weeks of taking graduation pictures and late nights at the office, Elena was ready for something calm. Plus, she had the chance to spend time with Dan which, by default, put her in a good mood.
Of course, Elena heard him arrive before he knocked and she quickly made her way to the front door. Pulling it open, she returned Dan's bright smile and quickly lean in to press a kiss to his cheek. "Thanks. You look good too," she replied and then noticed the small box he held out to her.
"Aw. Dan. You didn't have to get me anything." Elena reached for the box and carefully lifted the lid. The earrings inside were gorgeous. Perfect against her blond hair. "Dan. They are beautiful." She quickly took out one and then the other, placing them in her ears, and pushing back a piece of hair so he could see them.
