Valentines day hadn’t been anything that he had known about prior to this year. It wasn’t a thing that was celebrated in his own time, but when he found out about it, and how important it was to many couples, he wanted to do something. And there was something he had wanted to ask Botan for a long time.
He was going to propose.
Not the way he had asked her to marry him when she didn’t remember who he was, but properly. But he didn’t know what weddings looked like in a world like this. He had turned to his trusted books, reading up on what a modern proposal and wedding entailed. A ring, he figured out he needed pretty quickly. An engagement ring, it was called. Should they both have one each? And should they be matching? The books only talked about women and rings, and symbolization, but he wanted to show that he belonged to her and no one else. If the ring was a promise, he should be wearing one too. So he got both of them pretty rings, the same kind though it would possibly look a bit out of place on his own hand with how pretty it was, but it was chosen to suit Botan after all.
He had taken the day off from work to make everything perfect. It was nice weather outside, a sheet of snow on the ground. In a park where the snow decorated trees and benches, he cleaned off the snow from the bench and started to set out flowers. He had bought flowers of every kind and shade of pink and purple, He had set up candles, shielded from the wind in their glass lanterns, giving the area an additional glow aside from the street lights.
And come evening, he led Botan to toward the park, making sure she was dressed well enough not to get cold. And with her hand in his, he walked by her side in the guise of an evening stroll. And now that he’s about to ask her, he’s having a hard time keeping the question in until they get to the park. But then the lights and the flowers become visible, and he’s bursting with nerves.
