"This is great Tadashi!" I exclaimed, admiring our work. Tadashi had hung the paper snow flakes I had cut out using coffee filters to match the scene outside my window. The snow outside had finally kissed the ground, covering the grass in a light blanket. Just in time for Valentines Day!

"Hey, it's Valentine's Day in less than a week!" I point out to Tadashi who was obviously unaware of the holiday.

"Oh, I forgot about that." He admits, reaching for another paper snowflake to hang. I nodded and continued to cut shapes out of the paper.

"I was wondering if we could make valentines for everyone in the hospital. I think it would really brighten their day, even the nurses and doctors!" I exclaim, accidentally dropping my scissors. Tadashi smiled and jumped off the seat to pick up the tool for me.

"Sure, we can do that. I think it would be really sweet. I'll bring some paper and decorations with me tomorrow." He offers, sweeping the white scrap cutouts from the bed.

"That would be so great! Thank you so much!" I squeezed his arm, my head leaning into it. I let go and scooped up the little pieces into the trash bin. I stare up at the ceiling the snowflakes were done, about forty eight had been cut out to decorate the room. Soon there will be hearts hanging down!

~Tadashi POV~

"What are all those supplies for?" Aunt Cass called out from the kitchen on my way to my bedroom.

"________ wanted to make valentines for the patients and doctors at the hospital." Tadashi replied, setting the three heavy bags on the kitchen counter. He emptied them, stacking each supply. He separated them by item; there were pink, purple, and other colored paper, heart and cupid stickers, markers, glitter, lace, and a couple smaller decorations.

"You've got quite a load there! Let me grab you a bag to put those in." Cass kneed by the sink and began searching for a reusable bag.

"Wow, what's all this?" Hiro exclaims looking through the supplies.

"They're for _______, she wanted to make Valentines. I'm bringing supplies over tomorrow."

"Here, Tadashi." Aunt Cass handed the young man a bag to carry his things to ________," what would you boys like for dinner? I better start cooking before it gets too late."

"WINGS!" They say in unison.

~Back to you~

"Hey ________!" Tadashi says as he enters the room, he carrying two bags of supplies. He removes his coat and places it on the chair. He pushes the supplies on a table towards my bed.

"Tadashi! You didn't have to get me all this stuff." I cried as he took a seat next to me on the bed and began taking things out of the bag passing them for me to see.

"It's a special day, don't worry." I shook my head with a smile, god, why does Tadashi have to be so nice and considerate?

"I brought paper, glitter, lace, ribbon, stick-" I pecked his cheek with my nose.

"Thank you so much! This is really fantastic." I thanked, as a small tint began to cover his cheeks.

"It's no problem, ________." He muttered, opening the pack of papers for me to start. I reached for my scissors and took a pink piece of paper and began to cut out a heart. I also began thinking what does Tadashi have planned? He hasn't told me anything, of course we plan to finish our Valentine creations to be handed out, but does he have someone special for that day?

"Do you have a girlfriend, Tadashi?" I blurt, he stops arranging the stickers and tenses up. I wonder what's wrong.

"Are you two planning to do anything Valentine's Day? I bet you're going to take her out to a nice dinner, huh?" I finished cutting out the heart, "she must be really lucky. I mean, you have such a big heart!" I pressed the cut out onto his chest and beamed at him.

"Sh-she's really lucky..." I squeezed the paper heart, causing it to crumple up at the sides. Tadashi takes my hands, and gently grins.

"I don't really have any plans for Valentine's Day; I was thinking I would just visit you."

~Valentine's Day~

"Ta da! I think this one is my favorite." I held up my latest creation, it was a heart with "Do you want to build a snowman" in glitter, there was lace around the boarder and a cute little Olaf.

"Cool, that's sixty-three. I'm almost done with this one." He lifted his arm to show me a hot pink card with "Hakuna Matata" on it. I giggled at our nerdy Disney references. We've worked all morning on these cards that we actually missed lunch!

"I think were done. We finished all of our supplies." Tadashi said, after he finished the bow on his last Valentine.

"Yeah, that was so much fun!" I stretched, causing some of the glitter and paper scraps to fall onto the floor.

"I'll bring these to the nurses to hand out." Tadashi left, and I continued to clean up the scraps. There were two more heart stickers on one of the packets; I hid them under my pillow for a surprise.

Tadashi hadn't returned for a while. It worried me a bit, was he not going to come? Then the door opened and Tadashi squeezed in carrying a shopping bag, which-smelled really good from my place on the patient's bed.

"I brought dinner!" He announced, placing the bags on the table and opening the to go boxes to present sushi (or any other food).

"Yum! Wow, again, Tadashi? You keep out doing yourself!" I smiled as he handed me chopsticks. He pulled up a seat in front of the table and began to dig in.

"Is this like a date, Tadashi?" I teased, popping a sushi piece (or other food) into my mouth.

"Yea-NOO! It's not! You sound like Hiro." He blushes.

"I think so though, I mean, nice dinner, we're together, hearts hanging from the ceiling, I think it is." Tadashi looked away with his mouth still chewing.

"But thank you Tadashi for making today special!" I pulled out the sticker packet and stuck on of the hearts on to his cheek and kissed the spot.

(There has been a recent loss in my family. My updates will be slow. I apologize for the inconvenience, I really need to spend time with family and time to heal.
But since today is the of love and friendship. I would like each of my readers to hug someone they love and please tell them you love them. If you had a recent fight with person. Please forgive them, because you never know when they will disappear. Tell someone you love them today, tell them you love them for being compassionate, loving, helpful. Thank them today for all they've done. Valentines day doesn't have to be about the chocolates and the flowers, it's about the love we share and the reasons we favor each other.

Tell someone "I love you." )
