 Juptier stood in a green house, tending to the lilies that he had gotten to surprise Aloe. He would never give her a dead flower of course, so he made sure to give the pot a little bit of water. He hoped that Aloe would like his surprise, not that she would know it but this place was special to them. He intended to also surprise her with the stone he had picked out for them. They hadn't discussed it yet, but he was sure that everything would go the way he planned it... right? Suddenly he was nervous and he could feel his hands begin to shake. He glanced nervously at the clock she would be here soon.

 Aloe had a lot on her mind, she was scattered as always with the rest of her life, kids everywhere, going to school, making sure they were doing alright. Then she had her school work and her work at the greenhouse. Aloe had been a little lonely since both Evergreen and Allium had moved on with their lives and found others to spend their time with. She stumbled through the door, there she saw the plants so many plants, she felt like the plants listened and understood her. It was hard to believe that anyone else did, then again Evergreen was kinda like a plant and he had moved on with his life even though he was still a dear friend of Aloe's. At first, Aloe didn't even realize that anyone else was in the greenhouse with her, that's how focused she was on plants rather that other beings. She did know who Juptier was even if she wasn't very good at showing that she knew. Having him around did make her feel better even when she didn't realize that's what she had been thinking. Aloe sighed and sat back against the wooden lining that bordered the garden. She was thinking about the stones she had gathered in her excitement, she had intended to do one last imbuing with Ever and Allium, but they had both moved on without her. So now Aloe had 3 stones but was alone, she really didn't want to imbue them by herself nor did she want to imbue them with some strangers magic left in the stones.

 Juptier watched Aloe when she came in he wanted to immediately call out to her but he could tell that there was something on her mind. He stood for a minute watching her before clearing his throat to give her a heads up that he was there and not to startle her. He left the stone that he had on the table behind him but held the lily plant in one hand in front of his stomach. He didn't say anything right away he wanted to take in her reaction to his offering before he poured his heart out to her, for he had a fear of getting crushed. He hadn't met someone who was so at one with nature like him before her.

 Aloe blinked and looked up at Jupiter. "Oh, sorry Jupiter did you say something??" She asked she liked him, he seemed really nice though so very quiet it was hard to know what he was thinking. He kinda reminded her of a tree, which kinda mad her sad again because then she thought of Evergreen. Aloe sighed and said "Sorry I have a lot on my mind.." She said softly.

 Juptier reached out to put one of his hands on Aloe's elbow comfortingly. "I got you this." He motioned to the plant he held in one of his hands. "Talk to me what is bothering you?" He frowned wanting to comfort her.

 Aloe smiled softly and took the plant "Aww thank you, Jupiter." Aloe started to cry a little. "I was just thinking about how Evergreen and Allium have moved on and found others who want them, but nobody wants me, my kids are all busy living their lives going to school. I I I guess I just feel lonely." Aloe said softly in her babbling rant. About how everyone else's lives were going somewhere and hers didn't seem to be growing.

 Juptier smiled when the thanked him but when she began to cry he instinctively put the plant aside and pulled her into a big hug. "shh.. shh. That's not true." keeping one arm around her he pointed to a window, " I was standing there for no real reason I just happened to stop and stand there. Here you were, tending to these beautiful things. I'd never seen something so pure before. I knew then I wanted a piece of you always." He took a step to the side and motioned with his hands toward the stone that had been on the table behind him. "That is if you'll have me..." he blushed deeply unable to look her in the eye. He knew how much loosing evergreen had hurt her, and he wasn't sue if she was ready to trust again but he hoped she would give him a chance.

 Aloe listened and she smiled a little, she hadn't realized that Jupiter saw her as more than a friend. "Really??" She asked softly as he comforted her and told her how he felt. Aloe hugged him "Of course I'll give you a chance if you want to take a chance with me.. Umm maybe this is forward of me, but umm I have these stones that I wanted to imbue but didn't want to do it alone." Aloe blushed it seemed more special somehow talking about imbuing the stones with just Juptier.

 Juptier was happy knowing that it had worked it was a little rocky he'd admit but he was happy. Looking down at the stones he nodded. "It would be my honor."
