V is for Valentine

Roark paced restlessly. He was in front of the Eterna Gym and people were giving him weird stares. He finally went inside and nodded to the man at the beginning who was always giving people advice. The guy nodded back and pointed to the middle of the flower were Gardenia was sitting, looking bored out of her mind. Roark made his way towards her.

"Hey Gardenia." Roark said, scratching the back of his neck, a nervous habit of his. Gardenia looked up and her eyes lit up with joy.

"Hi Roark! I am soooo bored!" she said, jumping up. Roark chuckled. "What is it you wanted?" Gardenia asked, tilting her head to the side.

"Uh...I was....um...I was wondering if you would-" Roark was cut off.

"Oh! Before that! I was wondering if you wanted to go to that Valentine's Dance thing that Flint is forcing us all to go to?" she asked. Roark laughed lightly.

"I'd love too." he said.

"Oh great! Now what is it you wanted?" she asked, perking up.

"I wanted to know if you wanted to go with me to that Valentine's dance and if you be my Valentine." Roark laughed lightly, when Gardenia beamed and nodded. Gardenia eventually joined in.

The advice giving man looked at the two, and muttered, "Lovesick." Smirking slightly and rolling his eyes afterward.
