Valentine's Day was the worst when you catch your boyfriend cheating on you with your best friend. I'd planned an amazing day for us today. I had gone to his apartment to find my best friend in bed with him. I'd thrown a shoe at him and left.

I wasn't crying yet. I just felt a little numb. But I had seen it coming. The way his eyes lingered on other girls, the way he never let me see his phone. Things hadn't really been working out for us anyway. I wasn't upset to leave him, only upset that he'd cheated on me.

I gloomily walked down the streets. I had tickets to an amusement park, the movies, and I'd even booked a table at the nice restaurant he liked.

I actually hated that restaurant.

I turned down an alleyway and got halfway down it until I realised that it was a bad idea. Two scary men had begun following me. I walked quicker and turned a corner. I smacked straight into the chest of another man. I began to panic until I looked up and recognised him as Pietro Maximoff, one of the newest additions to the Avengers.

The two other men rounded the corner.

"Back off, kid. She's ours," one of the men said.

"Women are not property," he said in a lovely Sokovian accent.

Quicksilver gently pushed me behind him. Before I could move, both men were on the ground and Quicksilver had turned to face me.

"How about we leave this alley," he said, his accent making my knees weak.

I nodded and he led me back towards the sunny street.

"What is your name?" he asked.

"Y/n," I said.

"Y/n," Quicksilver repeated, smiling slightly. "That is a lovely name. I'm Pietro."

I smiled and took his outstretched hand.

"It's nice to meet you, Pietro," I said.

"Do you have a Valentine?" Pietro asked.

I shook my head and Pietro gasped.

"How does a beautiful lady like yourself not have a Valentine?" he asked.

I giggled and shook my head, blushing. I'd honestly forgotten about the cheating scandal until now. It didn't seem to hurt so bad anymore.

"Do you have a Valentine?" I asked.

Pietro shook his head.

"How does a handsome man like yourself not have a Valentine?" I teased.

Pietro chuckled and ran a hand through his hair.

"Because I haven't asked her yet," Pietro admitted. "Y/n, would you like to be my Valentine?"

A smile tugged at the corner of my lips.

"I'd like that," I said.

We ended up doing everything I'd planned to do with my now-ex-boyfriend. We had gone to the amusement park, the movies and to a restaurant. We didn't go to the one that I had booked because neither of us liked it.

Pietro payed for everything that wasn't pre-paid. I already paid for the tickets for everything, so he payed for the food we ate.

We walked out of the restaurant together.

"I had fun today," Pietro said.

"Me too," I replied.

"Maybe we could do this again sometime?" he suggested.

I giggled and handed him my phone to put his number in. I couldn't wait to spend more time with this speedster.
