Holiday walked into her room after a long day. She flopped onto her bed and glared at the alarm clock. Those red numbers taunted her.
1:37 AM
She sighed and walked into her bathroom and closed the door behind her. She walked over to her bathtub and turned on the hot water. She let it run while she undressed. She dropped them all in a corner near the sink. Holiday undid her bun and ran her hand through her black hair. She turned around and turned off the water. She then bent down and opened a drawer. Inside was some washcloths and a small jar. She picked up the small jar and opened it.
Inside the jar was preserved rose petals. She picked up a hand full, and scattered them in the water. The floated on top, making the water seem red. Holiday carefully slid into the water and soaked there, enjoying the peace and fragrance.
She soaked until she heard the doo of her room click open. She opened her eyes and looked at the bathroom door. She heard footsteps, something being placed down, more footsteps, and her door clicking closed again.
Now, Holiday was curious. She got up, and wrapped a towel around herself. Slowly, she opened the door. She poked her head out and looked around. No one was here. She turned back into the bathroom and grabbed a small net, one that you would use in a fish tank, and scooped all of the petals out of the water. She then drained the water and walked out of the bathroom.
Holiday walked over to her dresser and pulled out a silky pale green nightgown. She let her towel drop as she put it on. She then reached across her dress to pick up a comb. Before her hand reached it her eyes met something on her dresser that wasn't there before. Her hand switched directions a picked up the item.
A small tape recorder, and a red rose with a card tied to it.
Holiday pulled the card free of the rose, and held both in her hand. While sticking her nose in the flower, she opened the card and read it.
Play the recorder.
It says it all.
She placed the card down and picked up the recorder. She clicked the "Play" button and listened.
Did you know you have a special way?
Of turning around my terrible days.
You make all the bad things go away.
The second that you say...
Hello.
A song?
It's the way that you talk, that you laugh, that wou smile.
If beauty was inches, you'd go on for miles.
It's the way that you make everything seem worth while.
The second that you say...
Hello.
It is a song! But... from who?
It's the way every love song reminds me of you.
Along with the stars and the sunset here too.
It's the way that you make the sky seem much more blue.
The second that you say...
Hello.
Holiday sniffled a bit... this was beautiful...
So if love is a drug, then I guess I'm addicted.
All I want is to have yours. It's making my heart sick.
Goodbye is what broke it, and you are what fixed it.
The second that you said...
"Hello..." Holiday murmured the last word as the song ended. The tape stopped playing.
She help the rose close to her chest. Who would send this to me? She thought, very happy and sad at the same time.
She heard someone walk away from her door, like they had been standing there the whole time...
She recognized those footsteps...!
Holiday closed her eyes blissfully and smiled softly.
Happy Valentine's Day, my green ninja.
Aww well that was cute! The song is The Second That You Say by Chase Coy.

Happy Valentine's Day, you crazy love sick people!
