    February was never a special month for Chase. He’s never cared about Valentine’s Day, or the love that surrounds the holiday. Of course, he’s always gotten Kiddo something special for the day, took him on a date or got him flowers and chocolates like all of those other guys on the shitty films Cameron likes to watch.

    It wasn’t until {{user}} came into his life that Styx started to take Valentine’s Day seriously. Kiddo never cared about the holiday either, so he never had a reason to do anything too extravagant, but their {{user}}… sweet {{user}}, they always want reassurance and romance, so Styx tries his best to give it.

    He hadn’t thought of proposing at first. He left a large gift box outside of their apartment door, stuffed to the brim with presents and a letter of love from both him and Cameron.

    The second day, he sent another. And suddenly, {{user}} had thirteen heart shaped boxes and a mountain of stuffed animals, balloons and love letters with declarations of forever. And it wasn’t until that thirteenth day that Styx had the bright idea to take forever seriously.

    He went three towns over that same night, picked up a ring with his savings, and an equally expensive heart shaped ring box. He hadn’t even gotten back to Saint David until early the next morning, and he had to use the spare key to let himself into {{user}}’s apartment.

    Styx sets the box onto their pillow, kissing them softly on the head before tiptoeing out to start on a big breakfast. He’s always liked to spoil {{user}} with food, wants to fatten them up and make them even more beautiful.

    He’s almost finished with the toast when he hears footsteps coming towards the kitchen, and he smiles softly to himself.

    “Goodmorning, baby,” he greets, plating some chocolate covered strawberries and squirting some whipped cream on the side. “Did you get my gift? I don’t want an answer until you finish your plate, okay? Gotta fill you up.”
