        I don't want to wake up today. Sunlight filters in through my window, forcing me to get up. I sigh with a groan, and sit up. I hate this day. Makes me feel depressed seeing all of those happy couples running around.

"At least I don't need to go out today. Though, one thing about Valentines day, is that games will do special events. I wonder if GGO has any?" I asked myself, trying to recall if I saw any news about an event for this beloved holiday. My phone buzzing caught my attention. Stretching to reach it on my nightstand, I manage to grab it before falling out of my bed. I fall to the carpeted ground face first with a yelp.

"That's... one way to wake up." My face hurts now... Oh right, someone texted me. I bring my phone up to eyesight to see who it was that texted me before my untimely fall. It's Kirito, what does he want? Shouldn't he be out there having the time of his life with Asuna? I mean, it's Valentine's Day after all. If you have someone special to share it with, you should. I read Kirito's text.

Hey, (Y/N)! You should hurry and get on GGO! There's a limited time event going on right now with a rare item at the end of it! Huh, so there is something going on. Guess there's a Valentine's Day even in a post-apocalyptic world. Well, if there's a rare item, I'm not going to say no to that. My stomach, on the hand, says otherwise when it growls. Looking down at it, I say, "You're just going to have to wait, sorry bud." Maybe I could go out tomorrow and get some discounted chocolate.

When I get onto GGO, I'm quite surprised by all the lovey dovey decorations everywhere. I would have thought I got onto the wrong game if it hadn't been for the ruff and tough looking players of GGO. I hear my name called out and I see Hikaru and Kirito running towards me.

"Master! You're finally here! Do you see all the decorations? It's like all of Glocken's getting ready for a party! I like parties!" I smiled at him and nodded.

"Yep, sure does." My reply was short, unlike usual. Suddenly, a memory came to mind. I started to laugh because of it, confusing Kirito and Hikaru.

"What's so funny, (Y/N)?" Kirito asked. I looked over at him.

"Do you remember Valentine's Day back in SAO? There was that one weird NPC that looked just like you! I was just remembering it and it made me laugh." Kirito's eyes widened, having remembered it too.

"Do you have any idea how many people came up to me after that asking if I would still accept their chocolates from that quest? It was so annoying..." I laughed at him.

"That's what makes it funny, Ki~ri~to~!" I managed to choke out with a giggle. I finally calmed myself down.

"So, what's this event?" I asked the two.

"Well, first we need to find the NPC who gives out the quest." Kirito stated. I spotted a group of people surrounding an area, so I pointed it out.

"Why don't we try over there? It looks like something's going on over there." Kirito nodded.

"Sounds like a plan! I knew it was a good idea to ask you to help out." I placed my hand on my hip.

"Speaking of which, why did you ask me? Why aren't you doing something with Asuna?" I asked Kirito. Kirito tilted his head in confusion.

"Hm? Why would I be doing something with her?" Is he stupid, or just really dense? Or both? Yeah, gotta be both. I sighed, shaking my head.

"It's nothing. Let's go see what's going on over there." I took off running to see what the commotion was. The crowd was mostly males, which made sense. What's got them so interested over here, I wonder? Pushing through the crowd, I learn why. My face flushes up immediately. W-What?! My thoughts go back to moments ago when I was teasing Kirito about the NPC that looked like him back in SAO. Is this karma for doing so? Before me stood a smiling NPC that looked identical to myself. She was greeting the male players left and right, each of them looking her up and down. It was disturbing. To top it off, she appeared to be wearing a revealing armor.
