Soap had never been the type of man to hesitate to get the job done, both in the military and off duty. Today was no exception.

It was Valentine's Day today, and he knew exactly who he wanted to spend the day with and who he wanted to be his Valentine.

You.

He wasn't going to settle for anyone else except for you, not when he'd had all these pent up feelings for you that he'd kept inside until today. So, in the early hours of the day when all the soldiers encluding you were getting up to start their day, he almost sprinted to your sleeping quarters before anyone else could get the chance.

After he knocked on your door and you opened it up, he didn't even give you the chance to say hello or ask why he was there before saying what he needed to say.

"You're going to be my Valentine. No asking questions lass/lad." He says confidently and straight to the point with his usual goofy grin on his face.
