A single white rose lay on her bed when she returned to her room that day with a small note attached. "Happy early Valentine's Day ~"
Shaking off the heavy leather jacket, the Scout almost crushed the object on her bed without realizing it was there.Blinking stupidly a few times she leaned over as if the entire thing might explode, but after a few curious prods it appeared genuine and her heart exploded into warmth.
Bringing the rose up toward her bottom lip she smiled into the soft petals, eyes still intent upon the note as it was such a kind and beautiful thing. Not believing there to be any sort of romantic implication behind the gift, Eli left her room to fetch a glass for the flower.
