Valentine's Day. A day that Kyle and my dad used to grumble about, talking about commercialization and the unnecessary pressure to deliver romance one day of the year.
Last Valentine's Day, Max and I were still pretending we couldn't be together because he was an alien and I wasn't.
I'll probably never get around to having a Valentine's Day with Max Evans, ever. Maybe my dad and Kyle are right. Maybe Valentine's Day is over-rated.
----
I was wrong. Valentine's Day can be wonderful. Maybe it's not really the day, but the person.
I had the most wonderful night tonight. Peter made me this really cute card and got me cookies and I did my best to make a cupcake. He seemed to like it, but I'm going to go back and talk to Pike for some more pointers.
We talked for so long and it felt nice and right and the fact he wanted to talk at all was really... refreshing. And then we did this silly science experiment that I found in the only science text book this place has and we ended up on the floor together.
The way Peter kisses me makes it seem like the rest of the world melts away.
After that, we watched Star Wars. Peter talked the entire time about all the things he loved about the movie, but I didn't even mind. I like seeing him excited. It's nice.

This might have been the best night of my life.
