🌹 Rose Giving Coming down to a rose

[Noelle Maxwell]

Red for @Xinyi Huang

The perks of being to deliver roses as a professor were that Noelle already knew most of the students, especially those who were in his class. He did not need to resort to dumping them at their house tables in the Great Hall. He noticed that most Gryffindor 5th years had not come down yet for lunch so he figured Xinyi went back to his dormitories to drop his books or something. As such, the man decided to just climb the stairs and hopefully he would meet the Gryffindor somewhere in between. True enough, he spotted Xinyi coming down the corridor on the sixth floor. "Good day, Mr. Huang.", he greeted.

Xinyi was holding his sketchbooks against his chest, debating what he wanted to do. Perhaps go out to the gardens? He was distracted though as a Professor approached. He paused, worried for a moment that the Professor had figured out his little scheme. "Yes?" He asked, looking to the man.

"Mr. Huang, I am actually here on rose business.", Noelle explained with a small smile as he held up the rose for him to see. He had the roses individually wrapped in some colored Japanese paper tied with a ribbon that matched the rose's color. "There's also a note attached to it.", he added.

Spoiler: Note

Happy Valentine’s day!

Rosie

Xinyi smiled, accepting the rose easily. "Thank you Professor." He offered easily, glancing at the note. He couldn't help the way his smile softened. He tucked the rose into his hair and the note into his pocket. "Happy Valentines, Professor."

Noelle chuckled, never failing to be amazed at how a single rose and a note could brighten up a person's day. "You're welcome. Happy Valentine's Day!", he waved at Xinyi before continuing on with his deliveries.
