’ he chipped in almost immediately. ‘And you too,’ I replied. ‘Tomorrow is Valentine,’ he said, ‘I got you baby. Ours is love forever, and I do love you my Olive plant.’ ...Alarm rings... 6:00 am. It’s Wednesday morning, the 14th of February 2018. ‘Happy birthday Mum, happy Valentine’s day everyone!’ I said. ‘Happy Valentine’s day,’ the already dressed up Stella said. ‘You said we would be going shopping today as early as 6 am, it’s 6 am, let’s get the day rolling Olive. Tick tock says the clock.’ We both laughed.

Today was Valentine's Day and I was going to propose to my boyfriend of three years. I know he was the one that was traditionally meant to propose to me, but he was pretty indecisive, and we had soulmate energy. Why wait any longer when we could tie the knot now? And knowing him, he'd be appreciative that I actually put my foot first, he'd say yes. We were too good together. I could feel it in my bones.

Let us begin the journey! |...| February 14, 2021. Valentine's day. The amount of resent I have this day is equal to how much you will detest me. This is just like any other day with an extra touch of jealousy, and sometimes I wish all the surrounding couples become as miserable as I am. I don't particularly like romance; I find it useless, but I've always been curious, why do people go as far as throwing away your life for the sake of someone else that may not feel the same?

“Will you just tell me what I’m apparently missing? I’ve spent the last six months trying to restore order to a pack that a shithead nuked with next-level stupidity.

You are mated to not only a huge over-the-top drama queen, I say it with love, but an Italian. That’s one of those countries that will call themselves the home of lovers.” Colby threw his hands up in frustration. My face went pale. “I am dead. I’ve never even celebrated Valentine’s Day.

Sure thing, I can leave now and be with you in about twenty minutes. Luna thanks me, I let Lukov know I have to head out and will be back bright and early in the morning to help out with the last of the Valentine decorations, just two days to go and it’ll be our first Valentine’s Day event. I’m loving we are having so many firsts, we had Thanksgiving and Christmas and now Valentine’s Day, it’s all so special. I place my mobile in the holder on the dash and hear it ringing as I search for my sunglasses, even though it’s the middle of February the sun is strong and low today. It’s Autumn.

I keep glancing at the clock. Even though we are super busy, the time is somehow dragging. Normally I love doing the flowers and being here, but today I'm not feeling it. I wonder if Loka has something set up for Valentine's Day for us or if it's just a normal date. We haven't really been dating more than twenty-four hours, so I'm guessing he doesn't have anything planned. It doesn't matter though.

she said simply, "Because I love you." There was a comfortable silence for a minute, and then Zavian's soft voice came again. "I'll get you a nice gift for Valentine's Day."

I initially planned to tell her on Valentine's Day, so I could relax with her before the surgery. Now, that was no longer needed. Nancy rushed back with the first-aid kit and rifled through it a few times before stopping. "Where's the ointment? Did you…" She cut herself off halfway through.

“So far, everything is in place. I’ve sent out all the invitations already, so now we just wait till next week.” “Good,” I said. “I know you always handle things properly.” There was a brief pause before I spoke again. “Speaking of next week… Valentine’s Day is after the ceremony.
