Day 34 of 100 Days Of Seddie Challenge: Valentine's Day
Sam POV
February 14th, or in other words: Valentine's Day. The worst day of the year according to me and the forever lonely. You know the people that are all open with their relationships and are so wrapped up in each other they can't see anyone else, don't you just hate those people; don't they make you wanna scream? When you listen to them baby-talking, and thinking 'oh, ain't that sweet'? It can really cut right through you, the way they carry on. Don't you just hate those people when you're alone? It makes me sick.
No one was thinking on asking me to be their valentine this year, same as every year. It's because I'm the same ol' girl that I was last year and the year before that and the year before that...No one likes a girl that's aggressive or meat loving like me. I'd try changing again but why should I? I am myself for myself and no one else.
I seemed to be mistaken by my theory of never being anyone's valentine when I got home from Carly's. I walked up my path to get to my house and outside was a basket full of ham and bacon and Fat Cakes, all of my favourite things. I picked it up and took it inside my house and put it on the coffee table that was in front of my sofa. I looked around the basket and found a note, and sure enough there was one.
Sam,
Happy Valentine's Day. I'm never normally one to give valentine's gifts to girls but I want you to know that you're special to me.
I like you, whether you like me too or not. Just know that there's someone out there that cares for you this Valentine's Day.
There wasn't any sign of a signature and I couldn't recognise the writing because it was typed and printed out onto card. The card was nicely decorated like it was made on a computer using difficult software. There was little smudge at the bottom of the card that almost looked like an 'F'. I didn't look into it.
I wasn't really sure how to feel but I was flattered I guess, but the only person I wanted it to be from was a certain nerdy tech producer that was also my best friend, but I doubted that a lot. I mean, we dated, we loved each other but we were over each other. Well he was over me, I could tell. But he probably thinks that I'm over him, I act like I am but I will never forget those three words that he told me and I've kept them for these months that have slowly gone by. Day by day I pretend that I don't love him like I told him, that I still don't have feelings for. But I'm a good liar.
I sighed. I couldn't investigate now; I had to get ready to go to Carly's Valentine's Day party. It was a masked event so we wouldn't know who was who. Carly thought it was a good idea so that you could talk to people and find your valentine, but that was kind of hard because I could hear their voices. I promised Carly that I would go so I got ready.
I wore just a red dress, a red masquerade eye mask and some red heels. Very red but so were hearts, right? If I was going to a Valentine's party, I might as well dress appropriately. I left to go to Carly's apartment.
The party was in full bloom when I got to Carly's, I was only a little late. Carly had decorated her apartment with hearts and a big banner that says 'Happy Valentine's Day!' in big bold letters. Freddie had helped her decorate when he came back from where ever he had been, I didn't ask questions to where he was going. I had left just after he had come back.
I couldn't see who anyone was amongst the crowd of people; everyone was wearing the stupid masks so I couldn't even see where Carly was or even Freddie. I tried to push through the people and see if I recognised anyone but I couldn't. It was so annoying; I just wanted to find Carly. Valentine's Day wasn't my favourite day. There were a few people coupled up and you could tell that they were having a good Valentine's Day with the person they cared about. I, however, didn't even like all of these people, especially when I wasn't in a good mood. I hated everyone that was all open and public with their relationships and forcing the lonely to watch them be all smooshy together.
I snuck away from the party, up the stairs and I sat on the top stair. I sat down and took my mask off. No one was up here except me. I suddenly saw someone walk up the stairs and sit down next to me. Freddie took his mask off and faced me.
"Party too much for you, huh?" he asked me.
"Yeah, I've never liked Valentine's Day so I don't know why Carly even invited me," I sighed.
"Come on, it's a party, you can't be down just 'cause it's Valentine's."
"Yeah, but no one even asked me to be their Valentine. I know I sound like a whiny teenage girl, and you know I don't act like this," I said pointing a finger at him. "But it's just nice to be...you know...wanted for a day," I admitted to him. Why I did, I had no idea.
"Everyone feels like that on Valentine's Day. But you didn't get anything at all for Valentines?"
"Well I did get something," I said.
"What did you get," he asked me, softly.
"Just a basket full of ham and bacon. They left a note but it didn't say who from. There was, like, no trace of who it could be from on the card."
"You sure?" Freddie asked me as if it was really important that I had to find out who it was from.
"Yeah—" I remembered the smudge. "—there was something. There was a little smudge on it that looked like a...'F'." I said the last part quietly, trying to fix the pieces together.
What I knew was: they knew I liked bacon and ham, they were able to create fancy graphics on a computer and their name began with an 'F'.
"Freddie," I said quietly. He heard me but didn't say anything. "You. You sent me that basket and that card." I looked up at him to see his reaction.
He had a sheepish grin on his face. There was a faint blush in his cheeks. "I'm going to see if Carly has any fruit." He got up.
"Dude, are you serious?" I said, pulling him back down.
Before he had time to catch the breath from when he got winded by me pulling him down, I pressed my lips to his. He was shocked for a second and he kissed me back. Just like old times. He was the only person that I had ever kissed and I hoped that he stayed the only person that I'd ever kiss because this time I wasn't letting him out of my grip. Never again was I going to let him go this time. Whatever it took I was going to make sure that this time it worked between us, because we've learnt from our mistakes and we now know what it takes to be good together.
Love on Valentine's Day only works if you make it happen. If you don't make your feelings clear, no one else will know what you're feeling.
Review, please! Yeah, I didn't know how to end it so I put that little line. Tell me what you thought.
