Chap 4

He went to grab his wallet,

"How much will it be?" He looked back up to see the women was gone. "I must have hit my head harder then I thought..." He looked at his hand and saw the face rose. He just shook his head and continued running to the secret base.

Back at the base everyone was sitting around talking,

"I'm worried about Susan." Bob said frowning sadly.

"Yeah, me too, where's the Doc?" Link asked looking around when all of a sudden Dr. C. came busting into the room out of breath. Everyone looked at him as he walked to Susan's door. He straightened his lab coat. He tapped his knuckle against her door.

"Susan?...my dear, I have something for you...It's me Dr. Cockroach.." The door opened and Dr. Cockroach walked into the room. It was dark and he could see Susan in the corner.

"My dear why are the lights off?" He turned the lights on seeing her with blood shut eyes her hair a mess and tear streaming down her face.

"Susan? Whats wrong?"

"I...Have no special someone for valentines day." Susan said softly. Dr. Cockroach clutched the rose tightly then walked up to Susan. She looked down at him tears flowing down her cheeks. He scurried up her leg standing on her knee wiping a tar away.

"Why so many tears my dear girl?"

"V...Valentines day was the day... Derrek asked me to marry him.." He mentally growled at the name. He dismissed that holding out the rose.

"Derrek isn't here now is he? And the last time I checked I'm not Derrek." She looked down at him with wide eyes then grabbed the rose.

"A fake rose?" She asked tilting her head to the side.

"To the untrained eye it is my dear but in other cases it is a ever lasting rose and..." He looked up at her placing his hand on her. "As long as this rose is blooming my love for you will be there." Her eyes watered up again and he stepped back. "What did I do? Why are you crying?" She picked him up so he was standing on her hand.

"These are tears of happiness...I love you too too Dr..." She leaned in and kissed him on the lips. His eyes widened then he closed his eyes and kissed her back. They pulled back and Susan placed him on her shoulder.

"Happy Valentines day Dr."

"Happy Valentines day My dear."
