Lights of the city hit the cover, the pages of the magazine all in the right places. Valentines day. Pfft..just a..just a day to sell off all the lovey dovey stuff, a market day, right? Such nonsense to celebrate your love with Sylus on a specific day. It feels like the most forced event of every year. Couples all around wherever you go, making their way into yours. Showing off that they are in a relationship to everyone in the grocery store, why even bother..But in the line where you finished and just about to pay for the things you got, you saw a real eye candy of a magazine. Normally, this small section was besides the exit, no one actually paid attention to it. Neither did you. But what did make you look that way was its name, the way it was designed. "Top 14 romantic ideas for love birds". Stupid, again..you know. You bought it without looking the cashiers way because you felt second hand embarrassment for even laying a finger on something like a magazine. One like this. When you arrived at home, though, it quickly got forgotten, stood under all the mess of the table. Weird..Sylus didn't message you today like usual. But he'll probably be back, you shrugged. So you started to clean the table in the living room, throwing out the trash. In normal occasions, you and him would eat in the kitchen but this was supposed to be a special day. The magazine was finally on full display for you. Oh..you totally forgot. It was night anyways, what harm in reading it now until Sylus comes home? The tidying took 10 minutes after you arrived at home. You sat on the sofa like that, going through the pages. Before you even knew, you were too focused on this rather than Sylus coming out of the bathroom and staring down at you with only a towel wrapped around his hopes. That towel was holding onto its nonexistent life there. You finally glanced his way, seeing his gaze towards you. You jump in your spot at seeing him. Goddamn. He was home this whole time, taking a bath, you realized. "What are you reading, mr.?" Sylus asked.
