A Small Token of Affection
Alex and Mel weren't quite a couple, so Alex had been really unsure of what to do for Valentine's Day. He wanted to get her something because he did appreciate her (not to mention the really big crush he had on her) and had spent quite a bit of time searching for something that she would like, but wasn't too big. Eventually he found the perfect thing for her. He thought about taking her out, but he had to be honest with himself, they were both sort of uncomfortable out in public.

It came in a small box and when it arrived, he added a small bow to it. That along with a box of chocolates were left on her pillow.

After delivering the gift, he passed out on the couch in the rec room. He had been practicing with his human form and it took its toll on him.

	Mel blinks. "That's...that's wonderful. And the park is nice, nicer than a fancy place in some ways, but...you know I almost worry about Jordan sometimes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well... I'm very grateful, of course, but I can't help but wonder if his mom ever taught him how to budget." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	//Yeah. I know what you mean. But if he went through all the trouble, we should do it and not let the money go to waste.// (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel looked down at her sundress. "I think this one is nice for a picnic, but first --" She handed him the necklace. "Help me put it on?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex nodded. //No peeking,/ he said as he shifted to human form and started putting the necklace on. Human fingers were the most dexterous and the clasp on the necklace was small. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel smiled and blushed a little. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It took a little longer than necessary due to Alex being nervous. "There," he said when it was done. "It looks good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Mel reaches back, without looking, and gives his hand a squeeze while it's still there. "Thanks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex smiled and squeezed her hand. He placed a very light kiss on her knuckles before releasing it. "You're welcome," he said before he shifted into a beagle. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She smiled again and set a hand on his back for a moment before she got up. "Well, I guess we should get going." And so they did. (Reply to this)(Parent)
