Originally, Flora was the only member of the Winx Club that didn't have a love interest. However, in the beginning of the second season, Flora realizes she had grown lonely and wishes she could find someone special as she witnessed seeing her friends with the ones they love. Later, when Flora and the Winx attend the reopening of Red Fountain they meet Helia, nephew of Headmaster Saladin and a former student of Red Fountain. When looking through Helia's sketch book, Flora was greatly impressed, commenting his drawings were so life-like, greatly pleasing Helia.

Later, when Red Fountain was attacked by a Monster sent by Lord Darker, the Winx and Specialists work together to defeat it. Flora tries to distract the monster while everyone attacks it, but Flora is blinded by the creature and is almost eaten, until an unknown person somehow holds the monster back. Helia is soon revealed to be Flora's saviour and upon learning Flora is alright, Helia releases the monster and leaves. Once the battle has ended and the monster gone, Flora discovers a paper plane and learns someone has drawn a portrait of herself. Flora is greatly pleased and flattered, knowing Helia is the one who made it. Since then, both Flora and Helia have developed strong romantic feelings for each other, but are shy and nervous when trying to express them.

Flora's feelings towards Helia grow increasingly strong as the season progresses as she begins having romantic daydreams about Helia saving her and them getting married and constantly writing his name in her notebooks. Eventually, Flora comes to realize she has deeply fallen in love with Helia. However, due to her shyness and unsure if Helia feels the same way, Flora has trouble expressing her feelings. While her feelings towards Helia are obvious to everyone, Flora only confides to Aisha and Chatta about her feelings towards him. In order to help Flora to better learn about Helia's true feelings for her, Aisha sneaks over to Red Fountain and discovers a love poem Helia wrote, revealing he also harbours romantic feelings for someone. However, before Aisha learns the identity of the mystery girl, Helia reappears and she is forced to return to Alfea. Aisha later informs Flora about the poem as it obviously reveals that Helia does return Flora's feelings and she encourages her to show Helia that their feelings for one another are mutual.

Although Flora is still unable to tell him, Flora sends Helia a flower, letting him she's thinking about him and leaves it outside his bedroom window as she flies away. At one point in the season, Flora attempts to tell Helia how she truly feels about him as she writes a love letter to him.

Helia helps Flora and notices her letter, especially the flower symbol as it means Flora is in love with someone. Helia congratulates Flora, knowing whoever gets her letter is very lucky. However, Flora is again unable to tell Helia her true feelings for him and instead claims the letter is actually for her parents. Helia returns Flora's letter and leaves while Chatta quickly appears and scolds Flora for missing a perfect opportunity to tell Helia her true feelings for him. Towards the end of the season, Flora still has yet to tell Helia her true feelings for him.

Later, when the Pixies are sick after being infected by strange plants in the Resort Releam, Flora, Aisha, Sky, Brandon and Helia go to Pixie Village to make a special tea from the Flower of Life to cure them.

Once the Pixies are cured, the Specialists are getting ready to return to Red Fountain, but both Flora and Helia are nervous and thus are unable to say goodbye to each other.

Chatta encourages Flora to confess her feelings to Helia, but Flora is unsure that Helia truly feels the same since he didn't say goodbye. However, when Chatta reveals that Helia might be feeling the same, Flora gathers her courage and calls out to Helia before he departs.
