Scattered Petals

Description

As a part-timer at a florist shop, Park Kyung has been waiting all his life - OK, a year - for the customer that orders not the ever clichéd “I love you” bouquet of flowers, but the complete opposite. Enter Woo Jiho, who asks for more than Kyung ever expected.

Foreword

Title: Scattered Petals 
Pairing: Kyung/Zico, ZiKyung
Genre: Humour, Romance, Fluff
Warnings: Alternate Universe, Coarse language, Sensuality
Rating: PG-13

Notes: Based on this amazing prompt on tumblr: Person A owns a flower shop and person B comes storming in one day, slaps 20 bucks on the counter and says “How do I passive-aggressively say you in flower?” 
Check out this post because it came with the amazing drawing of what a " You" bouquet looks like, which I incorporated into this fic. Here is my reference for the meanings of flowers - basically the bulk of my research for this fic XD

Also, I threw in Korean actor Kim Jiseok as Kyung's boss here, 'cause I fell in love with what a dork he is when I watched "Problematic Men" (after Kyung became a permanent member), and also because I love that hyung-dongsaeng bromance Kyung's got going with Jiseok XD ♥

This is a three-shot.

Chapter 2: OMGGGG That. Was. SO. GOOD.
First off, the DETAIL in all the flower meanings, and even going so far as to talk bout their colors and what goes with what, was absolutely beautiful. (Also, the elements of flower humor is amazing...I don't think I'll be able to look at baby's breath the same way ever again...." of the flower world" had me giggling for a solid 30 seconds.)
Second of all, the chemistry between everyone is soo on point. Like the development of the relationship between Kyung and Whoo Jiho is so great (like the constant staring + being teased about it + making him feel different + your genius = perfect romantic development). Also the chemistry between Kyung and Yukwon, and Kyung and his boss is hilarious. Yukwon's comments and his banter with Kyung give me life.
Third of all, this whole fic was such an awesome roller coast. For the first 1.5 part of the fic, I was smiling and giggling on the inside and cooing for them to get together (also because of Yukwon's teasing). Then SPOILER ALERT I got to the part about Kyung leaning over Yukwon and i could just FEEL something about to go wrong, and then it did, and I was just internally screaming on the inside and I had to pause to remember to breathe again. Then I kept reading while holding my breath and when Jiho shows up again, I was squealing (especially when Kyung doesn't respond immediately. Nice job for suspense!!). And at the end, I was cooing happily, satisfied and happy.
Last of all, thank you so much for this awesome fic!!! It made my day and I absolutely LOVED it!!
(PS. Sorry for the long comment...it's just that this fic is so awesome...i feel guilty because I'm not really in this fandom at all, but honestly, everytime I read one of your fics, I'm basically on the verge of joining the fandom -- and I would if not for homework and essays TT-TT -- basically, you're awesome, your fics are awesome, and thank you!)

Chapter 2: This turned out to be my current favourite fanfiction of zikyung! I love the humor and I love it, how you describe the characters. You let 'em act realistic and it's such a cute and an unique storyline. I mean, I've never seen a flower shop zikyung ff. First I thought it would be a bit strange -but god: I love this fanfic so much! Thank you for writing it <3 Looking forward to the next update!
