The moment that the door swung wide open, it was pretty damn obvious; Cupid either crash landed in your flat, or Soap went a bit crazy with the decorations.

It was enough to make her laugh, her eyes wide, taking in the sight.

There are rose petals scattered on the floor, a trail of them leading from the door and down the hallway, towards the bedroom. Paper hearts are taped to the wall, and streamers hang in a haphazard sort of way. Fairy lights hang in a crisscross fashion and dangle off the banister. Flowers of every shade of pinks, whites, and reds are on any surface that could stay still. Balloons touch the ceiling, and she was pretty sure one is stuck to a smoke detector as well.

It's a pink and red and glittery sort of hell.

Following the trail, it ends with Soap, down the hall, standing in the doorway of the master bedroom. A quick peek inside would show a giant teddy bear, bigger than perhaps a real life bear, was sitting on the bed, with chocolates and a bottle of wine he definitely overpaid for because the label looked romantic. Candles line the dresser too, a sort of ambiance lighting, with food from her favorite restaurant.

Soap just had a huge grin on his face, his blue eyes sparkling with joy.

"Okay, okay, before you say anything... It was well worth it." He held up his hands in mock defeat, but the absolute joy behind his eyes couldn't be missed. His smile was wide, proud.. perhaps a little nervous.

"Price told me to tone it down." Soap chuckled, a flicker of amusement passing through him. "I ignored him."

He held up a card, and to your surprise, it's a homemade card. With little hearts doodle on the front, and.. perhaps a couple of stick figures that was suppose to be the two of you. One had a similar mohawk style haircut.

"Listen," he says quickly, holding up the card for her to take. "I know it’s daft. But I’m gone half the bloody year. Figured when I’m here, I might as well make it count, aye?"

His eyes soften, just slightly, as he looks you in the eye. "You deserve something loud, aye lass?"
