~ Valentine's Day ~

"Singles Awareness Day"
Don't say that, it's stupid.

Well, this V Day I was not single. :) I certainly wasn't expecting much from Alex; we're poor, starving college students and I wasn't about to put pressure on him to do something romantic and ridiculous when all I really wanted was to just see him. I certainly got something, hahaha.

Monday night he was feeling really sick. He works the crappiest job with the crappiest hours on the planet so I was really worried for him. He couldn't get sick! He needed to feel better! I mentioned that if he wasn't feeling well he needn't worry about seeing me Tuesday, Valentine's Day. I said it would be fine if he came up Thursday or something when he was feeling better.

At three on Tuesday I got a text from him, freshly off work, he said that he was much too sick and couldn't come up. Initially I was really worried about him and told him it was fine, it was just another day, but then I remembered that I'm a selfish person and got sort of sad for me. I had really wanted to see him. The dear thing kept apologizing and apologizing. Around six I got a call from Whitney, his sister. She said, "Alex feels so so bad about not being able to come up tonight so he asked me to drop off the flowers and stuff he was going to bring you." I said that was fine and patiently waited, doing homework and trying to pass the time of my now empty evening. 

Around seven I got a knock at the door.

:) 

My sweet Alex stood there with flowers, not sick at all and grinning ear to ear mischievously. He tricked me, surprised me, and then made me dinner. 


It was such a nice surprise and I got to spend the rest of the evening with him. Although he did fall asleep on the couch at one point in time, we still had a great time, hahhaa.










And that was how I spent Valentine's Day with my man. :)
