"Hey perv, what're you writing? A love letter or something?"

"What? Hey!" Dee made an unsuccessful grab for his sheet of paper that Bikky snatched off the table. "Give it back, rugrat!"

But Bikky was already reading and suddenly laughed out loud. "A poem?! Ew, how cheesy!"

"It's called romantic, not cheesy, you dork! Ryo likes poetry!"

Gigglesnorting, Bikky handed him the paper back. "That's SO lame!"

"Not as lame as losers who don't have ANY Valentine's Day presents for their better half yet!" Dee gave Bikky a pointed look.

Bikky crossed his arms. "Of course I have something for Carol!", he claimed, stomping to his room.

"As if!", Dee called after him. "I bet you're writing a poem for her now, aren't ya, you copycat?"

The following silence was answer enough.


oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo


"What rhymes with blossom?"

"Bosom."

"But Ryo doesn't have a bosom!"

"Well, Carol does!" Gleefully, Bikky wrote something, then frowned and scribbled it away again. He sighed in frustration. "God, this is hard..."

"I knew it wouldn't help to do this together", Dee grumbled.

A few concentrated minutes later, their eyes met in silent agreement. "We suck at this", Bikky stated.

Dee nodded, defeated. "Let's just buy flowers."



(Author's Notes: If Ryo and Carol only knew what their boyfriends are going through... Omg that sentence rhymes, I'm a better poet than Dee and Bikky together! :D )
