The Universe's Mixer

Ted was good at picking out flowers if they were apology flowers, birthday flowers, Mother's Day flowers or Valentine's Day flowers. He'd never really gotten flowers for his wife after their first couple of months together unless for one of the above reasons. Sometimes she thought the apology flowers were just-because-flowers, and he never felt the need to correct her otherwise during that time. Eventually, she'd figured it out.

What he wanted today, though, was none of those things. He wanted to send something to Jo. He hadn't quite had a crush like this one since his younger days, and wasn't sure exactly what would be appropriate.

Walking around, he kept his eyes open for a good place, and when he saw Sherwood Florist, he was too amused by the name to not go in. And he was very happy he had. The selection was very nice, and none of the flowers looked dead or dying. Even though they technically were. They all looked fresh and nice, and there were plenty of types he couldn't name, but were very pretty.

He wandered to the counter and looked around.
