Valentines day. A big soppy romantic day where couples all over celebrated their soppy romantic love. A known tradition is for partners to get eachother gifts, which is not as fucking easy as it seems.
Tweak awkwardly stared at her best friend as she watched her nervous rambling and pacing across the launch bay. She saw dashi flick her incredibly long hair and kick an oil barrel. Dashi cursed as she grabbed her foot and saw shed scuffed her platformed, black mary-janes.
“ ‘y'all right there girl…?” Tweak awkwardly called across the launch bay, cutting off Dashi’s angry cursing. Dashi turned her head, letting Tweak see the panicked look on her face. Dashi ran over to Tweaks room, her maxi skirt flowing with her motion, and slammed herself face first onto Tweaks bed. Tweak sat by her and rubbed her back.
“UUUGGgggggHhhhh…” Dashi groaned, dramatically and very loudly. It echoed through the empty launch bay. The rest of the octonauts were out doing field research so they wouldn't of heard, thank fuck. They would've thought she was in labour or something.
“I can't find any presents for shellyyyyy… and they're gonna have an amazing present for meeee… I can't dooooo thiiiissssss…” Dashi whined. Tweak playfully rolled her eyes and layed face to face with her friend. Dashi shoved her face into Tweaks chest and put her arms around her waist. Tweak swooped a lock of hair from Dashi’s face and sighed.
“Dashi, you know shellington would just be happy with a hug” She giggled
“yeah but it has to be a special hug or what's the point…” Dashi said, and then blushed as she realised a second meaning of what she said, “I didn't mean- ! not like a SEXY kind of special hug-”
Tweak laughed at her friend's embarrassment. She gave Dashi a smug look,
“well even if you didn't mean ‘THAT…’ I bet Shel would like that too~” She teased, and was met with a hard thump to the back. She flinched at the pain but laughed anyway. Dashi made another dramatic groan.
“You could always just organise something special, there doesn't have to always be a gift… maybe that could actually BE the gift” Tweak suggested, actually deciding to be helpful for once. “Maybe you could take your lab rat of a Boyfriend to a reef or something”
“I guess…” Dashi sighed. She smiled weakly but it faded quickly. She took off her grey-pink cardigan and tossed it across Tweak’s room. “Can I sleep over here tonight? I fucking need it…” She asked. Tweak rolled her eyes and nodded. She tossed Dashi a pair of black pyjama pants and a worn out grey T Shirt, covered in paint stains. Dashi put the lended clothes on and collapsed on her friend's bed. Tweak untied her ponytail, letting her hundreds of tiny braids drop to her waist length. She put on a white vest, which complimented her dark skin, and cargo shorts. Dashi took out her friend's Laptop.
“Titanic then?” Tweak asked,
“nah… Buffy maybe?” Dashi replied as Tweak eagerly nodded. Dashi snuggled up under Tweaks carrot-patterned duvet set and leant on her friend. She sighed again.
“I wanna give Shellington a ring…”

Tweak smiled and patted Dashi on the back.
“not like an engagement ring… we’re not interested in getting married right now anyway, but like… just so he knows i'm always gonna be with him…” Dashi explained.
“that makes sense…” Tweak sighed. She smiled to herself. “y'know nikki? My long distance girlfriend…? I've been talking to Barnacles and… he is considering employing her as a backup mechanic- An octo-agent I guess” Dashi squeezed her friend's hand.
“good job Tweaky…” Dashi grinned. The pair sat on the bed and watched the laptop. Dashi slowly drifted to sleep on tweaks shoulder, letting her long curly hair fall onto her resting face. Tweak tucked a few curls behind her ear and laid her down on the bed.
“You too Dashi” she sighed.
