Chapter 7
Cody and Elliot covered up the last of the plants theyâd planted today. There would be nearly full-grown plants by the time they were ready to leave tonight, thanks wholly to the faeries that lived in the greenhouse. It was the reason he rarely, if ever, had to order plants to fill the large nursery he and Cody took care of.
âDad, can you tell me what these seeds are?â He loved being called Dad. It gave him such a thrill each time the kid called him that. âIt only says seeds on the bag. I think itâs from the queen.â
One of the thousands of faeries came down and landed on Codyâs hand. He was a great kid. Elliot loved him to pieces. But there were times, even after living with him and Misty, that he was still terrified of someone hitting him. As soon as he shook the faerie free of his hand, Cody burst into tears because he hadnât meant to harm the little man. It took several of them, at least a hundred faeries, to console him so they could work with him again.
Cody looked up at him. âIâm sorry.â Elliot got down to his level and asked him what he was sorry for. âFor being such a pussy. Thatâs what my mean dad used to call me. Aunt Emerald said he was the pussy on account he had to hit someone smaller than him to feel like a big man. But I still get scared heâs going to come around the corner and take me.â
âCody, heâs not. Not ever. And Iâm sure that anyone in your position would feel the same way.â He hugged the little guy, and they got back to the issue at hand. âI donât know what they might be. But theyâre large seeds, arenât they?â
âTheyâre calla lilies, my lords.â Rainy picked up one of the seeds and held it high above her head while she examined it. âYes, this is a good seed too. Shall grow beautiful flowers that will brighten up any home with scent and beauty. I believe the lady queen has several of these very ones in her own home.â
âDo you think theyâd go well in here?â Elliot stood back and let Cody take over the conversation. He was getting better with speaking first in situations, more so every day. He thought working here was bringing him out of his shell.
Elliot went to find the other bags of seeds heâd been given to plant for the faeries. There were about fifty bags that were only marked with seeds. Some of them had hand-painted trees on them, so he just assumed they were tree seeds. He would have to try that. Heâd not been able to put out any trees for sale because heâd only just opened up last spring. This year they were doing so well; it was the reason he and Cody were in here today, putting more seeds into the ground to have for tomorrowâs business.
