Valentine's Day. For the past three years Jay always looked forward to it, since it was the one day of the year he and Nya could take a break from fighting evil and just relax, go on a date, and just be like any normal couple would be. He always told her how beautiful she was, how he never wanted to leave her side, and she always told him how much she loved him and that she would always be there for him.

Times had changed, however. Even though Zane turned out to be alive, Jay was unhappy this time around. Nya had chosen to be with Cole, and broke up with Jay. It felt strange for Jay. On the day they broke up, Jay didn't want to have anything to do with anyone. He isolated himself, either by staying in his apartment room or by taking long walks around the city to sort out his thoughts. He wasn't sure if he would ever get over his feelings for her, and even tried to talk to other girls, but to no avail. Not a day went by when he wasn't thinking about Nya and all the wonderful times they had together.

Jay soon found love in someone else, and though it was unbelievable for the others, it made some sense. He admitted his love for Kai almost a week before Valentine's Day, and they had been dating since then. Considering it was Nya's brother he was dating, Jay felt a bit awkward when he and Kai had intimate moments, but got over it quickly. He found that he felt much better being with Kai than anyone else.

Today was different, however. Though he was with Kai now, his thoughts were still occupied by Nya and Cole, and how he still felt upset about how they were going out for Valentine's Day while he and Kai were in his apartment room, doing nothing of the sort.

"What're you thinking about?" Kai asked. The couple were lounging on the couch, Kai's arms wrapped around Jay's form, watching a Fritz Donegan movie at Jay's request. "It's like you're not even watching the movie."

Jay shrugged, looking up at his boyfriend's face. "Just...stuff."

"Nya and Cole?"

"Er... Maybe?"

Kai smiled, kissing the top of Jay's head, nuzzling his face in the ginger locks. "At least you're honest. It's okay if you're still thinking about the whole situation, Jay. I know it's troubling for you. Take all the time you need."

Jay sighed, shaking his head. "No, no it's not. I'm with you now. I need to stop thinking about them, but I just can't!"

His outburst surprised Kai, but the brunet simply hugged Jay closer. "It'll take time, Jay. Just focus on calming down, okay?" He rubbed his hands up and down Jay's sides to soothe him, all while keeping his face close to Jay's cheek.

Jay shut his eyes, sighing contentedly at the feeling. He reached over to the coffee table for the remote to turn the movie off, needing the room to be quiet to get calm. He rolled over on his side so he was facing Kai, and planted a kiss near the edge of Kai's eye, his lips just barely brushing over his scar.

"Thanks, Sparkplug," murmured Jay, loving how Kai smiled at the use of the nickname. "I think I'm already starting to get over it."

The brunet looked down at him, pulling away slightly and raising an eyebrow. "Really? But you were just saying..." He smirked, shaking his head. "Did you use your thoughts about Nya and Cole as an excuse to cuddle?"

"Maybe..." He brought Kai back down, wrapping his arms around his neck. "It's just that they were doing something for Valentine's Day, and we're here watching movies and nothing else. Don't you think it seems kinda boring?"

"Well, no one ever said we had to do anything elaborate. I thought you wanted to stay home and watch movies. You were all like, 'Oh, come on, Kai! All the couples are gonna be filling the streets and we won't get to go anywhere!' And now you're telling me you don't like this?"

Jay gave him a devious grin. "You're really not following where I'm going with his, are you? Must be a side effect of being so hotheaded all the time."

Before Kai could protest, Jay pulled him down to press their lips together, squeezing his eyes shut. Jay moved his lips against the brunet's, twisting until they locked. Kai stared with half-lidded eyes at Jay's blissful expression, which instantly got him to move his lips, as well. His tongue slipped past Jay's soft lips, battling with the redhead's own tongue for dominance. Kai eventually won when he started to move his hands across Jay's sides again, this time letting them travel across his chest and abs, as well.

Jay couldn't help but moan as Kai's tongue explored his mouth, his bright blush covering up his freckles. He opened his eyes just slightly, and upon meeting Kai's gaze his face became an even brighter red, and the room seemed to spin. The warmth in Kai's eyes was almost too much to bear.

It wasn't long before they parted, Kai's hands still resting on Jay's chest, the redhead's mouth hanging open as he fought for breath. He loosened his grip on Kai's shirt, letting a smile to grace his lips.

"What are you thinking about now?" asked Kai, lifting a hand up to stroke Jay's still-blushing cheek. "Still Nya and Cole?"

"No," he panted. "Not anymore." He lowered his hands down to the bottom of Kai's shirt, gripping it tightly. "Now it's just you."

At first Kai didn't understand, but one suggestive wiggle from Jay's scarred eyebrow gave him the only hint he needed. "Now?"

"No one will be back for a while yet," he assured. "Besides, it's not like they'll hear anything, either." He gave Kai the best puppy dog face he could muster at that point. "Please?"

Kai hesitated, still feeling reluctant as he wasn't sure when Cole and Nya would be back. He soon gave in, smiling at Jay. "Okay. But this is your Valentine's Day present, okay?" he said, helping Jay pull the shirt off and throwing it to the side.

~o~o~o~o~

Cole and Nya walked down the hallway, holding hands and gazing into each other's eyes lovingly. Cole had taken Nya to see a play at the theatre, and then to a fancy restaurant for dinner. She enjoyed every last moment of it, not once thinking about her previous relationship with Jay. She knew she needed to move on, and Cole was there to help her do that.

"I had a great time today," she said, rubbing her thumb against Cole's hand. "I hope we'll get another chance to do something like this again."

"I'm sure we will," Cole said. "And if this peace ends before that happens, hey, we could always have a date in the middle of a battle. How does dinner and a show of evil knuckleheads sound?"

She chuckled, elbowing him gently. She let her gaze travel to the door leading to Jay's room, and she sighed. "I wonder how Jay's Valentine's Day went. I know he and Kai are dating now, but they didn't leave to go anywhere even before we left, so..."

"We could always check on them," Cole suggested. "Just pop in, ask how their night went, stuff like that."

"Do you really think that's a good idea? What with how Jay thinks about you at the moment?"

Cole led Nya to the door, shrugging. "It's worth a shot. Besides, even if he does try to attack me, I can take a hit, especially from him."

He reached for the doorknob, and was about to open the door when his ears picked up the faint sound of banging noises. He raised a bushy eyebrow, but then heard another noise that made him pull away and continue down the hall.

Nya looked at him with concern. "What is it?"

"Oh, nothing," Cole replied, hurrying to the door of his own apartment room. "Just a little Valentine's Day tradition for couples everywhere." Nya looked confused for a moment upon hearing this, but her brown eyes widened.

"Oh."

"Yeah."

She paused before speaking again. "Well, at least we know their relationship is going well."

"Yeah, not the best way to figure it out though." He opened the door, letting Nya walk in first before following, shutting the door behind him. "So, what do you want to do now? You know, other than think about what Kai and Jay were doing just now."

She shrugged, smiling up at him. "It doesn't matter. It's Valentine's Day, I'm with you, and as far as I'm concerned, that's all I care about right now."

Cole smiled back, lifting her up so he could press his lips against hers in a tender kiss. It was nothing too intimate, just the gentle movement of Cole's lips against Nya's, neither intending to take it further than that. He never wanted to separate from her, but did so anyway to murmur, "Hey, Nya?"

"Yes, Cole?"

"I... I love you. A lot."

Her smile only grew wider upon hearing that, and she went in to kiss him again. "I love you, too, Cole. No matter what, I'll always love you."

And so, Cole and Nya had fluffy adorableness while Kai and Jay had sex. The end. I decided to combine the requests for Kai/Jay with Cole/Nya because I felt it made sense.

Hey, even though I edged very close into lemon territory with this one, I do not take M-rated requests. I would love to write a lemon one day (I have an idea for a Zane/Kai one), but I just don't feel ready for something like that yet. Sorry :(

On the bright side, I've got some pretty good ideas for future oneshots (at least, I think they're good ideas XD)

Thank you to Howling Wolf Pup and lovestarr for requesting Kai/Jay, and to Guest and DeliciouslyDangerous1 for requesting Cole/Nya! Stay tuned!
