Valentine's Day SPECIAL!!!

[Kei]

Kei grumbled softly to himself, his legs propped up on the desk in front of him, a book open in his lap. Valentine's Day. How he hated this stupid man-made holiday. There was nothing to watch on the new televisions since all they would talk about is this forsaken holiday. What unnerved him the most is that deep inside, he knew he could never be a part of this holiday, this celebration...of LOVE

What could he possibly know about that? he thought silently, finally grabbing the book and tossing it aside violently.

"Another USELESS book...." he muttered through gritted teeth. He got up then, and went to the shelf to find another prospective book to tear through.....


Railet gave a big smile, helping Mairee bake cookies. This year, everyone was going to get something, even if it was just a cookie. Railet gave a glance towards Zairu, and gave a smirk before turning his gaze to Chiwi. He gave a mischievious smile as he walked up to her and whispered.

"So, whatcha going to get Kei?"

[Chiwi]

Turning to look at Railet, Chiwi replied softly, "Oh, I didn't get him anything, but I made him something." Then, in a softer voice added, "I made him a strawberry cheesecake; we had so many strawberries, I decided to put them to use." Tilting her head to the side, she half-frowned for a moment saying, "I really hope he likes it."

[Kei]

Railet smiled and gave a soft laugh.

"If it's got strawberries, he'll love it. Have you given it to him yet? If you haven't, he's in the study.... Probably throwing books around again." He laughed before going back over to help Mairee with her cookies.

Elsewhere Kei tossed another book, the book noisely slamming against the wall before flopping onto the carpet beneath it. He growled slightly, angry that none of these books were worth anything and didn't have ANY good information in them. Didn't matter though, all he needed was something to get his mind off of Valentine's Day, and at the moment it was working.

[Zairu]

Zairu grinned as Chiwi gave her doubts about Kei liking the gift Chi would be giving him, biting back a chuckle as Railet laughed and gave Chiwi his support that Kei would definitely like his gift.

"Yeah, Chi. Kei's just a big softie when it comes to strawberries." And you. Though she left that comment off.

Zairu's sleeves were pushed back and her hair tied up in a messy bun. Her hands were spattered with chocolate with a little bit on her face, courtesy of a giant chocolate bubble suddenly rearing up in the pan and exploding as she turned to look at the sight. With the strawberries that hadn't been used for cake, Zairu had taken some to dip in the chocolate.

Yummy...chocolate and stawberries together. Be still my beating tastebuds.

Valentine's Day...a very commercialized holiday, yet Zairu always liked the day afterwards. Half-price off all Valentine's chocolate! Otherwise...to heck with it! She usually just spent the day with Chiwi and Rukino watching movies and talking about the high school drama of that day.
