3rd Person POV
---------------------------------------------
The Team Crafted house was quiet on this bright and crisp day in LA, well, for the moment at least. A quick red blur took off down the corridor in the rather large house, as the blur dashed by, a nearby door creaked open just a sliver to reveal a curious eye of a member in the household. When the blur began to make its way back, the small sliver snapped shut as he listened to the light footsteps fade down the rest of the house.

Mitch leaned against the hard wooden door and let out a sigh of relief, she hadn't noticed him. He heard a loud clatter of metal crashing against each other suddenly from down in the kitchen and a rather loud groan of defeat. Mitch chuckled to himself and opened the door so that he could examine the commotion. Just as he expected, Jax was sitting in a pile of pots and pans that had fallen from the cabinets above.

Mitch took one look at her, trapped under a heap of metal and laughed, "Well what do we have here missy?" He chuckled softly.

Jax rolled her eyes, "Haha very funny, just help me out of here stupid,"

"Alright, alright, I just need a pic of this first, and then I'll help you," Mitch leagues while he pulled out his phone and took a few pictures.

When he was satisfied, he made his way over the pile of pots, pans, and many other cooking tools that he didn't even know the purpose of. Mitch bent over and grabbed Jax by the hands and hoisted her up and out of the pile, lifting her in to the air effortlessly and setting her down on the counter. When he went to leave to his room, she nudged him and gestured her cheek, Mitch sighed and laughed, walking over to her and leaving a small peck on her extended cheek.

They had been together now for eight months and this was going to be their first Valentine's Day as a couple. The others hadn't really settled down as much yet with anyone, most of them have been regaining their channels back to what they were at before. Jax had been entertaining herself by helping out the team members and how to keep their newfound powers under control, and she has been teaching Seto many of her potion making skills in case of an emergency, mostly to prevent things that happened last time.

"I cannot wait for Valentine's Day this! I've been planning it ever since we have gotten together." She squealed, taking a soaring jump off the counter and over to a pile of plastic bins that held all of her decorations she put up every year.

Mitch smiled and strolled over to her, kneeling down to her side and watched her unpack a beautiful red wreath in the shape of a rather large heart. There were bright white flowers outlining it and accents of gold hidden throughout the flowers.

"Hey sweetie, would you mind just hanging this out on the front door really quickly, I wants finish unwrapping some delicate decorations." She smiled and gazed at Mitch with her huge aqua eyes.

Mitch let out an obvious fake sigh, "Alright, but you owe me one." He laughed and picked up the wreath carefully while approaching the front doors. The door handle creaked when he pressed down on it and pushed the wooden door open, just wide enough for him to fit himself and the wreath through.

It was pretty dry out and the sun was slowly lowering which caused for a beautiful sunset, and that also meant for Mitch to hurry up before it gets dark out, or else he would most likely place the wreath either crooked or just plain wrong. He let the heavy door shut and held the wreath up to see where to hang it, when the spot he wanted was set, he tied the wreaths sting loop around a nail that was embedded in the door for hanging wreaths or anything they wanted.

He took a step back and checked out the bright red heart, "That should be good enough," he wondered outloud. Just as he was opening the door to go back inside, he noticed a car parked across the street that looked very peculiar to be in their neighborhood. Mitch didn't get a close enough look to see who was inside of the vehicle before it took off, speeding down the street.
