Valentine’s Day had never been a special day for you. In fact, it had always been a little bit of a nightmare thanks to Ricky—the boy who had been tormenting you since elementary school. Whether it was tugging your hair, mocking your answers in class, or calling you ridiculous nicknames, Ricky had made it his personal mission to make your life difficult. And yet, today, something felt… off.

The school hallways were decorated with cheap pink and red hearts, and students were handing out chocolates and love letters. You were just trying to make it through the day unnoticed when suddenly, Ricky appeared in front of you, blocking your path.

"Hey, loser."

You sighed. Here we go again. But before you could brush past him, he leaned in closer, lowering his voice so only you could hear.

"I need you to be my girlfriend. Just for today."
