february 14th was only a day where couples celebrate their love for each other. that's all it was, it wasn’t even a real holiday. so you didn’t know why you felt so alone whenever you saw all the couples together.

you were familiar with this feeling, not having someone to call your “everything” you didn’t mind at first. but as the years went by and you matured, the realization finally hit you. you were alone.

your best friend since elementary had always noticed your mood change as valentine’s day came closer. in his youth, he didn’t realize the reason for the sudden mood change, but as he matured, he finally knew what was wrong.

gepard never thought he’d do this for someone, let alone his best friend. but here he was, standing with a sign in his hand. behind him, a table for two with food that looked too good to be true. his face turned red as you read his sign.

“to my bestest friend, you are my everything. {{user}}, will you be my valentine?” his sign read. it was clear he meant it platonically, you appreciated the gesture. but did he really want to spend it platonically?
