So, yesterday Paul asks me to make sure someone will be at the house all day. Not a big deal since my parents are working on/around the house at the moment. At this point I pretty much figure he's sending something but I have no idea what. I'm curious.
Then he asks me what time I'm getting home tomorrow (now today). I am now getting very curious.
School comes and goes and I'm getting all excited to come home and figure out what Paul's up to. Then I realize that I have to stay an extra hour and a half after school for an IB Anthropology Exam review. I am now very anxious to get home.
Mom picks me up at school since my car's being tempermental (my own fault ). She then proceeds to tease me about how she thinks she knows what I got but how she won't even tell me where she put it until we're home.
Paul calls and asks where I am. I am 20 minutes away from home.
I get home and run upstairs to my room to ditch my bags. Paul calls again. It turns out what he sent got hidden in the kitchen pantry. I open the pantry and start to giggle because right there before me...
Are two boxes from a florist's!!!
Package one contains 18 red roses (my first roses ever! ), a note, some chocolates, and one of those funny little balloons that I always giggle at when they're someone else's but, it so turns out, I happen to rather like recieving myself.
Package two contains white lilies (lilies are my favorite flower ) and another note.
So...
I'm very happy and feeling incredibly spoiled and loved. The notes made me smile, the chocolates taste great, and, finally, my room smells great and looks so much brighter!

I stayed home sick from school today for the first time all year.
Highlight of the day: A quick call from Paul and a third set of flowers (irises this time). I spent over half an hour trimming the stems and arranging them lol. Then I had to grab a small chair to rest the vase on because I ran out of space in my room. Paul's response? That that's the way it should always be.
