A big day coming up, should have been expecting this for quite a while now. But I didn't, you know why? Because I was just way too excited to just have gifts or hang out with Cora and Roxanne. It was really exciting for me, though I have to admit, I really just wanted to show Roxanne one of my favorite TV shows of all time: Gilmore Girls.
      Right now, I was fiddling with my keys, trying to get it open, I nearly drop my keys, but I kept my hand steady, once it was unlocked and open the door. Upon entering, I'm greeted by Roxanne, wearing a silk robe, and has this headband with hearts on it.

"Roxy? Something going on I miss?" I had this look of worry and confusion, not knowing why she was wearing that robe, did I forget something? Was it her birthday? No, it couldn't have been, she would've told me it was by this time. Then she just a little upset, a tad angry at me even.

"Do you not know what today is?" She leaned down a bit, groaning at me.

"What? Seriously what?" Leaning back up to stare at me, she says,

"It's Valentine's Day Babe!"

"Oh, shit it is?" Roxanne smacks her forehead with her left arm in response.

"Yes......"

"Sorry...Here I'll go down to get you some chocolates or...."

Roxanne just shook her head, putting her hand up.

"You don't have to do that. I just want one thing from you." She emphasized the one, by bringing down all her fingers except for her pointer finger.

"One thing? Sure....What is it???"

Roxanne took off her robe, revealing some red and pink lingerie she had on. My eyes widened, I stiffened up, no seriously, my body locked up, I was mesmerized by her.

"I want you to be here with me (M/n)...."

      She walked ever so meticulously over to me, I not wanting to move a single iota. When she reached me, she wrapped her arms around my neck, my arms did come up to hold her by the waist.

"Then you don't have to wear that to tell me....."

"I know.....But I bought it. And I thought today was a good occasion." Our heads bumped together, this kind of reminds me of the slow dances I used to have with my ex.

I then calmly asked Roxanne, to change into something more, normal or appropriate.

"Do you not like this?" She grew this slight quiver on the lip, the brights in her eyes, glistening under the lights in my room.

"I do.....But.....Can I just have one thing with you?"

"What...." Her head lays on my chest, glancing up at me.

"Will you dance with me?" Her eyes lit up even more, she smiled widely, then went over to the closet. I turn around to not look in case she was to leave the closet.

It took her a few minutes to change, but once those minutes had passed, I heard some feet crunching on the stiff carpet, I knew Roxanne was behind me, her hot breath hitting my back, she decided to wrap her arms around me from behind.

"(M/n)?"

"Yeah?" My body wanted to turn around, but I still just liked standing right there with Roxanne behind me.

"What kind of music do you want to dance to?" She was cooing a few sounds behind me, her soft voice was already going into my ears. I only wanted to hear her, in between the sounds of cop cars running by or the occasional sounds of bugs and birds from my window.

I did a complete 180 to face Roxanne, she was now sporting a black jacket, blue jeans, her dark grey boots, and a white Jason Takes Manhattan shirt from my closet......At this point, I think I should get more shirts.

"The kind of music I want to listen to......Isn't really the best for slow dances but means a lot to me." Roxanne had tilted her head ever so slightly, trying to figure out what kind of music I was referring to.

"It's a slow dance song for you?"

"It is......I have it through iTunes." My phone was in my front right pocket. I fumbled with it, my right hand had a hold of it, but the phone clipped against the small pocket, I sighed mumbling to myself to move my left hand over and help take out my phone. I fiddled with my phone, I put it on the TV stand about an inch or two away from the TV. I press play,

*Say It Ain't So by Weezer Starts Playing*

"This is a song that means a lot to you?"

"Yes." I have my hands held out, waiting for her. She takes my hand as we begin to slow dance together.

"The opening really does lure you in."

"It does." I start singing along to the melody as Roxanne does her best to keep up.

"Say it ain't so......Your drug is a heartbreaker. Say it ain't so. My love is a life taker." Roxanne had her head lying on my chest. I could only move my right hand through her hand delicately while my left held onto her side. We rocked back and forth, letting Rivers Cuomo's lyrics sweep us in. Then my favorite part of the song kicks in,

"Dear daddy I'll write you in spite of years of silence, you've cleaned up found Jesus. Things are good or so I hear. This bottle of Steven's awakens ancient feelings. Like father! Stepfather! The son is drowning in the flood!!!!! Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!!!"

I want to hold her even closer to me if that was even possible, the way I can feel the emotion through that whole guitar solo. A chill goes down my spine, my breath strains, and my eyes swell a bit, I am more alive in this moment with her.

"Roxanne....."

"Yes (M/n)?" She gazes up at me, her dark brown eyes, reflecting that hint of passion and desire. All I did was lean down to her and kiss her. She wrapped her arms around my head to lean into it.

When we pulled away, I had to say to her in as honest a tone I could,

"I love you, Carla." Upon me saying that, she gained a pair of eyes that expanded, she was surprised that I called her by her real name instead of one she used for the ring. Her smile was brightening, like that of the sun or even a phone at full brightness.

"I love you too (M/n)."

      I had taken my phone to let my phone shuffle through and find another song for us to slow dance to, then again, I don't know if I wanted to slow dance to "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper. But I was happy to at least share this moment with someone I loved on Valentine's Day.

Update: Happy Early Valentine's Day everyone, I know it's incredibly early to send this out, but I just wanted to because it felt right. Hope you all enjoy this, thanks.
