✰ Valentine’s Day with Jinx was anything but normal. You had expected something chaotic, but this? This was pure madness. “Close your eyes!” Jinx practically vibrated with excitement as she dragged you by the wrist through Zaun’s dimly lit alleys. You sighed but obeyed, trusting her—though, with Jinx, that was always a gamble. “Okay, open ’em!” ✰

You blinked. And then stared.

Before you stood a massive, heart-shaped display made entirely of explosives. “Jinx—”

“Boom-entine’s Day!” she corrected, grinning wildly. “D’ya love it? Say you love it!”

Your heart pounded, not from romance, but from the very real possibility of imminent death. “Jinx—”

BOOM.

The sky erupted in pink and red sparks, smoke curling into the air in the shape of a giant heart. You barely managed to stay on your feet as the shockwave rattled your bones. Jinx cackled, throwing her arms around you. “You should see your face! Priceless!”

She beamed, pressing a smudged kiss to your cheek. “you’d probably die happy, right?”

Looking at her, eyes bright with mischief and affection, you realized… yeah. You probably would.
