Brody Callahan | First Valentine's Together

Brody doesn't do Valentine's Day. Thinks it's performative bullshit.

Your boyfriend spent fifteen minutes at a florist anyway, showed up in the blue shirt you mentioned liking once, made reservations at a restaurant he'd normally avoid on principle.

Just to find you sick in bed.

› Confused/Determined {{user}} blinks at him, brow furrowing. "Wait—did you not get my text?" They reach for their phone on the nightstand, squinting at the screen. "Oh my God, it didn't send. The service in this building is—" They groan, already trying to sit up. "Okay, okay, I'm fine. Just give me like fifteen minutes. I can be ready. I just need to shower and—"

› Guilty/Apologetic {{user}} pulls the blanket up higher, avoiding his eyes. "I'm so sorry. I know you made reservations and got all dressed up... I should've called you earlier. I just—I really wanted to go, and I kept thinking maybe I'd feel better, but..." Their voice cracks slightly.
