He had far more interesting dates in mind when came to Mia, far more meaningful ones between the two of them, but when the world held February 14th as such a symbol of love, how could he ignore to show it to her as well? [ Marcel knew, after all, that she liked little celebrations ]. He had left the table saying he would get ready for the day, but came back a couple minutes after, hands behind back, poorly hiding the rectangular large wooden box, and the Artemis terracotta antefix within. She wasn't the simplest woman to pick gifts for. ❛❛ You know I usually get things you can wear, but I thought maybe something for your collections would be better this time. ❜❜ The box was set on the table in front of her, lips formed a grin. ❛❛ <<Happy valentine's day, Minette. >> ❜❜
valentines day ... one of those holiday's that ought to be forgotten instead of celebrated . a hallmark holiday marketed solely for sappy , idiot couples and a reminder to the loner that they are , in fact alone ( showing one's love for another should be shown everyday , not just on a fixed date . ) mia didn't particularly follow valentine's day because she remained single for so long . however she came around to the idea of it slowly even though she expressed her love freely when around marcel . he knew she wasn't that much of a fan but still somehow made it a special day anyway . she figured out eventually that he was more sentimental to things than he let's on . which of course she found endearing , much like the many other qualities about him that makes him uniquely special .
his gifts were always special and they weren't just a pair of earrings or a bracelet . marcel would always go above and beyond with his gifts because he knew she wasn't an ordinary woman . when he walked back into their kitchen with a large box , after he had just left to get ready . she knew she was in for a treat , and boy was she . inside of the box something not only rare but something really meaningful . something that tickled a part of her personality that he knew he should nurture rather than shun . mia's eyes grew wide while the tips of her finger's run over the face of artemis , and a wide smile forms on her lips . " oh you've done good , " she says before her lips part into a grin and she looks up at him . " you've done real good , " she adds before pulling him down by robe and planting a kiss on his lips .
