It was getting to be the 14th of February and some of the children began to get excited. Others began to notice things. An example of this was one late and rather cold evening when Nan and Nat were sitting in the loft above the classroom. "Man I think Bess and Dan fought the whole day," Nan said rather tiredly. Nat turned towards her "Isn't it the old saying if two people fight they love each other?" "Yes!" Nan said as the realization came to her. "They just probably don't know that they like each other," she said. "We should try and make them figure it out," Nat said with a smile. The two kids sat the rest of the night planning. In the kitchen Ururu, Yuzu and Daisy were with Tessai. "Valentines Day is Saturday" Daisy said happily. "Yes, every Valentines day we bake treats" Yuzu said bending down. Ururu crouched on Daisy's other side, "Would you like to help?" she said knowing Daisy would want to do anything they did. "Yes yes yes" Daisy said jumping up and down. The two girls along with Tessai smiled. The next day during lunch Nan and Nat did their plan. "Bess" Nan said while running up to her, "Dan wants you to meet him behind the barn" she said. "Probably to apologize" she said pointing up her nose. At the other end of the yard Nat ran up to Dan, "Hey, Bess said to meet her behind the barn" he said to his best friend. "Good, maybe she will apologize for being so snotty and stuck up," he said. "Yeah, maybe" Nat said. When the two met, Nan and Nat watched from the side. "Well" Bess said impatiently. "Well" Dan said to copy and annoy her. "What did you want?" Bess asked. "Me," Dan said. "You called me here" he said annoyed. Just then Ikkaku rang the bell.
In the evening some mail arrived. "Cool, mom and dad sent me some money for my birthday" Nat said surprised. Bess opened a package of a beautiful new coat. "Ururu, Yuzu you guys also got some letters although I don't know who from" Ikkaku said surprised. He then handed the rest of the mail out.
