Well my dear readers, happy 14th of February or as its most commonly known… Valentine's day… Nothing else to say but enjoy the Jade and Tori's first Valentine's Day as a married couple… Trust me when I tell you that this will be kind of mushy, because well… Tori's involved, as for Jade? She will go into a happiness overdrive, how? You'll just have to read to find out, XD.

"Ugh… Valentine's Day." Jade groaned internally. "The mushiest day of the year and without a doubt my Wife's favorite holiday… Of course, I would end up marrying a woman who pukes rainbows and sunshine… Well at least she's not like Cat on this day or I swear there would be red on the wall and I don't mean decorations."

The former Goth opened the door, all ready imaginating what her wife had done to their living room.

"Best I get this over with." She grumbled. "The sooner I get blinded by all the Valentine's day crap, the sooner I'll get my vision back."

The moment Jade entered the living room after a day at the studio, she was speechless, she half-expected her wife to have decorated the place with roses and other Valentine's Day stuff, but instead what she saw was a few boxes all over the couch in a perfect circle and her wife smiling coyly from the couch in simple clothes, no fancy dress or extravagant make up or even a hint that she was planning something romantic… If anything, the place was normal.

"Vega… I have a question."

"Ask away West."

"What the hell?!"

"Not exactly the question I was expecting." Tori chuckled. "Then again, I learn to expect the unexpected from my good ol' wife."

"Old?!" Jade snapped. "That's going to cost you Vega!"

"You know what I mean baby." The Latina said. "Besides, you know that as far as I'm concerned you could turn fifty or a hundred years old and I would still think you're the most beautiful woman on the planet."

"I'll hold you to that." The Thespian grinned, closing the door. "God, imagine us at one hundred… We would look like walking corpses barely holding onto life but would die holding hands into the afterlife… I like that."

"That was sort of poetic and romantic but also… Kind of disturbing." Tori commented with a shudder. "Now THAT I was expecting from you."

"And I expect you to tell me what's with the boxes."

"Ah see, here are seven boxes and inside each one there's something I'm sure you're going to love!"

"Why seven?"

"Because seven is the half of fourteen." Tori replied coyly. "Get it? Huh? Huh?"

"You dork." Jade said with an eye roll, taking a seat on the couch next to her wife. "Math skills aside, I'm surprised you didn't wrap them."

"I'm sure you already seen enough red and pink while you were out so I decided to simply put all your presents inside black boxes."

"Right there Vega, that's one of the reasons as to why I married you." Jade said. "You know what I hate."

"Seeing as you made who knows how many videos of the stuff you hate, I'm surprised there's anything you like." Tori joked.

"I like you."

"Just like?"

"Fine… I love you."

"That's better." She said giving her spouse a kiss. "I love you too."

"I don't doubt that seeing that you decided to go simple and yet overboard." Jade commented. "Seriously Vega, only you would do this."

"Are you complaining?"

"Hell no, I'm getting seven presents from my dear wife!"

"So am I."

"Huh?" The thespian asked. "What are you talking about?"

"Don't worry about it, baby." The Latina grinned. "Just go ahead and open a box, how about the one in front of us?"

"Ok then." She shrugged, picking up the box Tori suggested. "Guess I'll start with this one then."

Jade was about open the box expecting to see something ridiculously mushy within, only to notice it was moving. "What the hell?" She realized it had holes on the top, once she opened the box, Jade let out a happy squeal. "Vega you didn't!"

"I did."

Jade got a little bunny from the box.

"I always wanted one." Jade said. "But my dad was allergic, look at him Vega… He's cute!"

"I actually bough him like two weeks ago and I asked Trina to keep him at her house till today." Tori said. "And of course, he had to escape and took us a while to find, he's a little Houdini."

"That's what I'll call him then."

"What?"

"Houdini."

"Ah, well guess it's fitting."

Jade put the new named bunny down, going into the kitchen for some carrots putting them on a plate and came back into the living room to feed her pet, soon enough, Houdini began nibbling on the carrots.

"Aww, he's adorable!" Tori gushed.

"Which reminds me." Jade growled "Never tell anyone I went all… Cat because you gave me a bunny or I swear I'll file for divorce."

"What happens in this room, stays in this room."

"Good."

"Go ahead Jade, you still have six other presents."

"Guess I'll open this one." She shrugged. "Vega… You got me scissors?"

"Look closely."

The thespian did and noticed there was one word on the metals "Jori Forever?"

"Jori! You know, our names in one word." She chuckled "I thought it would symbolically say that there's no one else I would rather grow old with than you and hopefully every time you use these scissors, you'll remember how much I love you."

"Vega, that's gotta be the mushiest thing you ever said." Jade replied. "But damn it you do know me all too well."

"That I do." Tori grinned. "So? Did you like it?"

"Do I hate pink?"

"Just as much as you hate yellow."

"Then that's your answer." Jade said as she was getting ready to open another box, only this one was full of Valentine's Day cards.

"Oh goody!" Tori cheered. "I know how much you hate those so I figured you would love to use your new scissors."

"Vega…"

"Yeah baby?"

"I want you so badly right now."

"And you'll get me… After you open your other presents."

"Oh, come on!"

"Trust me Jade, it will be worth it."

Three boxes later, Jade got the unedited version of The Scissoring on DVD, a pair of new boots that were meant to hurt her feet and a new camera.

All the while Jade's smile kept growing.

There was one box left.

And Jade was reluctant to open it.

"Vega… Before I open the last box, I gotta know something."

"Sure thing baby, anything."

"Why did you do this?"

"Huh?" Tori asked. "I'm not sure I understand the question."

"I mean, why did you go overboard." Jade clarified. "One present on Valentine's day I get, that's normal but seven, that's a little too much and don't tell me it's the half of fourteen crap! Seriously Vega, what's your angle?"

"Is it hard to believe that I want our first Valentine's Day as a married couple to be memorable."

"You said the same thing when it was our first Valentine's as girlfriends and you didn't give this much stuff back then." Jade pointed out." "We went out and had dinner under the stars… So again… What's your angle, what are you getting out of this?"

"You're going to think it's stupid."

"Probably, but I still want to know."

"Remember when you told me that your favorite toy was a hammer?"

"What does that have to do with anything?" Jade asked confused. "It hardly matters."

"Well it matters to me!" Tori snapped. "You didn't have a happy childhood; if anything, it was right down neglectful on your parents' part! how many times did they forget your birthday? To go to plays? Even to tell you that they loved you?"

"I don't know." She shrugged. "I lost count actually."

"Don't you think that's sad?" The Latina cried out. "Love begins at home and your parents failed to provide you with that! And then there's Beck! That jerk was only nice to you because he wanted to get into your pants!"

"I remember you kicked him where it hurts the most when you found out about that." Jade snickered. "You can be very scary when you want to be Vega."

"I was furious!" Tori bellowed. "You aren't a prize to be won! You're the woman I love and it killed me when you began to question your worth after you went through that."

"It wasn't my best moment… I felt so alone."

"But you weren't alone." Tori said. "You had me to keep you company."

"No matter how many times I told you to leave."

"Because I love you… Not that I realized that back then."

"You probably thought you were just being a friend." Jade shrugged. "And I took that for granted."

"You had a reason to be angry." Tori said as she held her wife's hands. "You were neglected and unloved for so long, you never knew what it's like to actually be loved, I remember the first time I saw you smile and not an evil, vengeful smile but a real smile… You were so beautiful, so… Happy and I liked that, so I made a promise to myself."

"A promise?"

"Yes, I vowed that I would always find a way to make you smile." Tori said. "That, why bought all these presents, back in high school I didn't have the money to give you more than just a simple dinner under the stars but now... Now I want to give you the stars because you have the right to feel more than just anger and resentment, everyone deserves happiness, even you."

"Only you would say something that mushy Vega." Jade commented. "You are such a dork… But you're my dork."

"Aw Jade!" Tori gushed. "You're smiling! Told you I would get my seven presents!"

"Huh?"

"Every time you opened a present, I got to see you smile." She explained. "And that made everything worthwhile."

"There's still one more box to open."

"Oh, I almost forgot, open it! I'm sure you'll like it."

Jade did so, looking inside she only saw a piece of paper, reading it said. "Close your eyes and count backwards from two hundred, your wife will be wearing something… Unexpected."

Jade raised an eyebrow, she looked back at Tori who only whistled in an attempt to appear innocent.

"Fine, I'll play along." Jade thought closing her eyes. "200… 199… 198…"

Once the Latina was sure her spouse wasn't looking, she ran to their bedroom.

"Jade's going to be surprised!"

"5… 4… 3... 2...1" The thespian opened her eyes. "Ready or not Vega, here I come!"

"Come and get me West!" Tori yelled out.

Jade walked past the kitchen, towards the hall and finally seeing that their bedroom door was ajar and some light was coming from within.

She was already imaginating what kind of outfit her wife was wearing, truth be told she was getting some very naughty thoughts, which made her speed up the pace.

Jade kicked the door open, expecting to see Tori in a sexy dress or simply under the covers but what she saw made her jaw drop and not in a good way.

Tori was wearing a bunny costume… A pink bunny costume to be exact.

"Vega… What the hell?!"

"You hate this, don't you?" Tori teased. "A lot?"

"YES! TAKE IT OFF!"

"Nope."

"Say what?!"

"That's your job." The Latina chortled. "Catch me and then you get to have fun with this bunny!"

Tori ran out of the room, Jade was speechless to stop her, once she regained all rational thought, only one thing came to mind.

"We're going to do it like jackrabbits when I catch her."

LOL, how many of you saw coming Tori wearing a bunny costume? It was meant to be a joke that Jade's first present was an actual rabbit and the last one was getting physical with Tori, Jackrabbit style.

I told you all this was going to be kind of mushy, let's not forget, Jade never had an easy life and I think Tori would love her too much and make sure that now that they're married, all those unhappy times would be nothing more than distant memories.

Anyway, hope you liked this one, see you all on Saint Patrick's Day but only if I can come up with a very good idea, if not then see ya all on April's Fools.
