Valentines Day was probably Vero's least favorite day of the year. It was just another reminder of how lonely she really was and how no guy would ever give her roses or chocolates or any of the other things girls get from their boyfriends. She would have to go buy chocolate for herself when it went on sale the next day. The day after Valentines day was her favorite day of the year.

She hoped this year might be different because she was spending it with Andy and the other guys. She hoped they might do something to make her feel special. But when she woke up that morning, it seemed like it was just another normal day and that disappointed her. She felt her heart drop in her stomach when she walked out and saw Andy in his boxers playing video games with Jinxx.

"Oh, hey Vero." He said quickly, not even granting her the slightest glance. His focus was too concentrated on the screen in front of him.

"Hey..." She said, defeated.

He could hear the flat tone of her voice and paused the game to look at her sulking on the couch. "I was thinking, maybe you and CC could hang out today! I have a few things to do and he's wanted to spend some time with you."

"Yeah, I can show you a good time!" CC exclaimed, walking out into the living area and plopping himself down next to Vero.

She giggled. CC always knew how to make her laugh. "Are you sure I'm worthy enough to hang out with the magical Christian Coma?" She laughed again and CC smiled.

"Yeah, let's go party!" CC jumped up from the couch and grabbed Vero's hand, pulling her up with him.

CC ended up keeping Vero busy the whole day and by the fourth or fifth hour of them being together, she began to get suspicious.

"CC, what on earth are we doing?" She questioned.

"Just chillin, you know. You're always cooped up on the bus and I never got the chance to get to know you very well yet. Andy's really the only one who's actually had a full conversation with you." CC pointed out.

He did have a point and Vero began to think he was right about being held up in the bus all the time. She was living with her favorite band. She should try and get out with them more. The tour wasn't going to last forever.

"Oooh! Ice cream!" CC pointed to a little shop across the street. "Want some?"

"Sure." Vero agreed and CC grabbed her hand again, pulling her across the street towards the ice cream shop.

After getting their ice cream, CC and Vero sat on a park bench and watched people go by as they ate.

"You know, Andy really likes you, Vero." CC mentioned.

"I don't know about that, CC... I mean, who would like me..." She looked down at her lap. She always felt insecure about relationships and she knew CC was the same way.

"Look, Vero, I know how you feel. I get insecure about asking people out and how other people feel about me, too. But I can tell you that he definitely does like you a lot." CC reassured.

Vero half smiled. "Thanks, CC. You're really great." She hugged him awkwardly but sincerely. CC really didn't get enough credit or thanks for everything he did and that made her sad.

"Well, it's starting to get dark. Maybe we should head back." CC suggested.

"Yeah, you're right." Vero agreed. It was beginning to get cold out even though they were in Florida and she had forgotten her jacket on the bus thinking she wouldn't need it.

The two hurried back to the bus and when they got back, CC let Vero get on first. "Ladies first." He insisted.

She thanked him and stepped onto the bus but CC didn't follow. The bus door slammed shut and CC was gone. The bus was dark with the faint glimmer of a candle burning in the distance. As she walked further into the bus, she saw that there were more than just one candle. There were dozens all lit and arranged in groups around the bus. The floor was littered with rose petals but there wasn't anyone around. She sure hoped she hadn't just walked in on Jinxx with Sammi and she definitely didn't want this to be some big joke.

She continued walking but then heard a noise behind her and spun around. Strangely, no one was there. Then, someone grabbed her waist from behind and she screamed.

Andy chuckled and calmed her down. "It's just me!" His deep voice sailed through her ears.

"Jesus, Andy. You fucking scared me half to death." She smacked his chest.

He just kept laughing from her reaction and she was getting angrier with each passing second. It was her bad temper getting to her again. She wanted to control it in front of Andy but it was getting harder to.

"Okay, I'm sorry." Andy apologized. "I didn't mean to scare you."

"What is all this?" Vero looked around at the dimly lit, romantic looking room.

"It's for you." Andy declared. "Happy Valentines Day, Vero."

For once, she could tell this was going to be a good Valentines day. Finally, she wasn't going to sit in her room and think about how shitty her day was. No more thoughts about how many people were getting laid at that exact moment and how many more hours until all the chocolate went on sale. Tonight was finally her night.
