[LOVE NIGHT]

Valentine's day was coming up soon and Love had gathered up some parchment paper and sweet talked an older student into turning it red for him. Now, he had scissors and was hard at work making them into heart shaped cards. He was aiming to make one for each of his roommates, all of his friends and of course, his family members.

He was sitting cross-legged on his bed, the curtains open and the sun shining through the window. It was a lovely weekend but Love was invested in trying to get his cards done so that they would all be ready to be sent out when the day came. He hoped it would cheer his friends up and let them know he cared about them.

So absorbed in his work, he didn't even notice when one of his roommates came into the dorm room.

Gaetan was unable to understand the reason for Valentine’s Day. That is, why there was a day where people would have to give signs of love or even kisses?! That didn’t make sense. Why exchange gifts if Christmas already existed where everyone could receive gifts. The boy had been a little busy outside playing with his friends, until after a few hours, he decided it was enough and wanted to go to take a break. Maybe read a good book. Depending on what he would find in the common room. Whenever he went there, he ended up doing something unexpected. Besides the company, always pleasant. He had many friends.

Having entered the common room, he had to go to the bedroom to get what he wanted, but he ended up finding the surprise of seeing Love there, doing what seemed to be a craft. Curiously, he came up and sat in front of him "What are you doing? You will not be involved with the celebration of Valentine?" asked pretending to be horrified. He sighed and looked at Love "I never understood why people usually give gifts and give kisses." muttered, frowning. Gaetan might be said to be terrified of that, but he wanted to understand why that was attractive. And how it was possible that it was even more popular than Christmas?
