"What is this Valentines Day you people speak of?" Thor asked, looking up from a commercial he had just seen promoting the holiday.

"Okay, Hercules, let me explain you a thing." Darcy said with a smile. "Valentines Day is the stupidest, materialistic, crappiest holiday we have. But if you have a girlfriend, woe betide you if you forget or make light of it."

"I don't understand…" Thor frowned.

"Valentines Day is when we celebrate our love towards another person." Steve explained. "It's usually expressed by giving gifts and going on dates."

"And you get Valentines candy for half price on the fifteenth!" said Tony.

Darcy snapped her fingers before pointing at Tony in approval.

"So it is a courting holiday?" Thor asked.

"Well, when you put it that way it sounds adorable." Darcy muttered.

"Then I must begin preparing at once!" he said, jumping up and leaving the room.

"Smart boy." Natasha hummed.

….

Thor got reservations at Eleven Madison Park for that night, which they were taken to by a horse drawn carriage.

"I don't know what Darcy told you, but Valentines Day doesn't need to be nearly this fancy." Jane said.

But Thor knew he did well, due to her smile. She was so beautiful. She was wearing the necklace he had given her for Christmas along with a short, strapless red dress. Thor, on the other hand, was wearing a Midgardian.

"Nothing can be too much for you." He told her, beaming wildly.

They were soon seated, and the dinner was superb, the wine unmatched.

"Jane." Thor finally said when all the plates had been cleared away. "I have never met your equal, on any planet. And I never will again."

She blushed brightly at the blunt admission.

"I hoped that, on this day of your Saint Valentine, to prove the upmost depths of what I feel for you."

"Thor…"

"Before all the realms, in the eyes of Heimdall and my father, I wish to wed you so that we may never be parted again."

He pulled out a ring and presented it to her. Jane, unable to speak through her silent tears, nodded and held out her hand. He placed it on her finger for her before wiping away her tears, causing her to laugh slightly.

"These… These aren't diamonds…" Jane said curiously when she could at last speak again. It shone brighter than any gem she had ever seen, and vibrant colors flashed across the clear surface. Thor shook his head.

"They are polished and crafted shards of the Rainbow Bridge." He told her. "It was what you were studying when we met…"

Jane gave another happy sob and kissed him
