Her eyes slipped around the apartment. The tiny place felt so big when you're alone, aching for a companion. Wandering over to the computer she slips in the familiar Burt Bacharach CD. A sweet song fills the rooms.

Why do birds suddenly appear Every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be Close to you

The small figure of Sarah Sidle dances across the wood floor. Its Valentines Day and she's alone, again. 'Nick, were are you when I really need you!' A silent tear slowly slips down her cheek

Why do stars fall down from the sky Every time you walk by? Just like me, they long to be Close to you

'I should have just told him when I had the chance' Sarah wandered aimlessly around the room looking at pictures of friends, family, the shift and of Nick 'I love you, Nick, I love you!'

On the day that you were born The angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue

'What is he doing now? Probably with some girl at a bar' Sara was happy with the life she had chosen but at times like this she had regrets 'Is this what I have done to myself? Is this the way I want to be? Boyfriend- less on Valentines Day and mooning over some guy who would never give you a second glance... in that way'

That is why all the girls in town follow you all around. Just like me, they long to be Close to you

Little did Sarah know but the very guy she was dreaming about was thinking about her. 'Who am I fooling' Nick asked himself 'Yourself' said that little voice in the back of his head 'Your fooling yourself' Nick sighed, why did things have to get so difficult? 'Know what? I'm going for a walk' Sub consciously he knew where he was going.

On the day that you were born The angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue

Sarah heard a soft rap on her apartment door, her heart leapt to her throat. 'Could it be?' She quickly squashed that hope 'Why would he come to see you on Valentines Day, let alone ever?' That is why all the girls in town follow you all around. Just like me, they long to be Close to you. Just like me they long to be Close to you

Sarah opened the door and the one person she didn't expect to be there was standing in the doorway holding a single rose. "Sarah, I was thinking about and I wanted to give you this' He held out the rose "Sarah, will you be my valentine?" Sarah was astonished, Nick, Here, Rose, Valentine. The thoughts flashed through her head. Nick was beginning to look hurt. "I guess I'll just go then..." Nick started to leave before Sarah stopped him. "Nick, I want to be you valentine". Nick slowly turned around looking at her like he couldn't believe what she was saying. Before Sarah could so much as realise what was happening, Nick had swept her up and kissed her. "I love you, Sarah" "I love you too Nick"
