summary: Someone brings home a new friend for Valentine's Day.

She stretched her full length, tensing and relaxing muscles before she got comfortable by snuggling against the warm body next to her. In what seemed a reflexive response, he curled tighter around her in return.

Drifting into sleep, she heard her humans enter. "Tara! Look! Miss Kitty Fantastico has a friend for Valentine's!"

Mate, their owner corrected.

Her softer human giggled. "Look at his squashed face! And all that fur!"

"He's huge. Very Grrr. I like him."

She ignored her silly humans and settled into sleep. Dreamland with Crookshanks was infinitely more interesting, and romantic, than her humans' cooing.

summary: Vi and Spencer on a date.

"This is really ok?" Spencer's voice was uncertain; Vi knew that if his arm wasn't wrapped around her as they huddled against the bitter February wind, he would've been wringing his hands.

"Of course! I love the museum!" Granted, the Smithsonian was a geek place to go for a date, but her man had three doctorates and questionable fashion sense--geek romance was a given.

Once inside, tickets purchased, map in hand, Spencer began guiding her with a gentle hand on her elbow. "There's a particular exhibit I wanted you to see. It's only here this year, and I thought, it seemed--Ithoughtyoumightlikeit."

"Lead on, sir knight!" She slipped her arm around his slim waist and swooned internally as he tucked her into his side. She was so intent on watching his expression as they walked that she paid no attention to where they were going.

"Here we are," he announced, "the Wittelsbach-Graff Diamond on display with the Hope Diamond." He squeezed her side and smiled, clearly nervous.

"Sparklies!"

Spencer's lips twitched. "Diamonds are a girl's best friend?"

"A boyfriend with great taste in diamonds is a girl's best friend." Vi beamed up at him. "You're the bestest boyfriend ever."
