"Hello l'amour, did you sleep well?" Francis said, kissing Matthew on the cheek as he walked into the kitchen.
"I guess so; I kept having this terrible nightmare about you and Alfred." Matt replied, kissing him back and then stealing a piece of cheese from the block Francis was cutting. "Francis, you shouldn't be cooking for me." He said, fixing Francis' long, blonde ponytail from the back.
"Feuille d'érable, it's my job to take care of you." He said, turning around to embrace Matthew's long, slender body, and suddenly pushing him away. "Cher, you feel much bonier than I remembered. I take a weeklong trip to Paris and you don't properly feed yourself, mon dieu."
"I have been, belle," Matthew replied, interlocking their fingers and gazing into the other's eyes, "Don't you worry about me." Francis pulled him close and slow danced around the kitchen with Matthew.
"I missed you so much Francis," Matthew said with a smile, "Happy Valentines Day."
"Right back at you." He slowly let his lips touch Matthew's in a peaceful manner. Matthew kissed him back, letting Francis' graceful hands flow through his blonde locks. They slowly let go, and Francis kept making their lunch.
"You're a cunning little Frenchman, aren't you?" Matthew asked, once again, toying with Francis' ponytail.
"It's one of my many talents," Francis replied, grabbing his special wine glasses and handing one to Matthew, and then filling them with his favorite wine, "Like the art of culture, that takes some hardcore talent."
"But passion is much stronger than talent." Matthew replied, taking a sip out of his glass.
"Ah ha! You've learned well Inséparable peu." Francis said, rustling his stubble, "Hm… you know, there is an old French tale that if you shut your eyes for 5 seconds at 11:11 and then open your eyes, you'll see the love of your life, and you know it's 11:10."
"I don't need to use some old wives tale; I know the love of my life," Matthew said, bringing his hand to Francis' face and softly placing it on his cheek near his jawbone, "And he's standing right in front of me."
