"Hey, this is Anna! Leave me a message if you need me, or just want to say hi! Or, you know, anything else. I promise I'll get back to you soon!"

[O-Oh.

What are you supposed to do when someone gets weepy over your present]

I'm sorry-

[Listen Chloe's

Chloe's never seen happy tears.]

I can get you something else if you want?

[rediscover]

What? [Anna's head snaps up and she laughs.] Are you kidding? This is amazing!

[She struggles to her feet and goes to give Chloe another big hug, murmuring in her ear.]

I love it, Chloe. It's perfect.

[hellablue]

[It takes all of her willpower not to murmur something sarcastic when Anna says that, but instead she just wraps her arms around Anna and gives her a big squeeze.]

I'm glad.

[She pulls back, but only so she can dip down and kiss Anna right on the mouth. This went better than she could've expected and she doesn't know how to handle that. In a good way!! It's just. She's being Chloe about it.

When she pulls away, she kicks at some snow.]

Happy Valentine's day- I realized i don't think I said that yet. But. Yeah. I'm glad it's.. y'know, you. That I'm with.

[It's hard to be open with how you're feeling, okay?

But now that she's talking, it's kind of bubbling up.]

I mean that! I- I dunno, I was going through some.. it was weird. Honestly. My first month or whatever here. But then I met you and things started- they got better. And I appreciate that. You're- you...

[Hoo. Boy. Don't hurt yourself with that one singular emotion, Chloe.]

What I'm saying is- you made me happy when I didn't think that I could be anymore.. so..yeah.

[rediscover]

[Anna grins into the kiss, her arms locking even more tightly around Chloe's midsection, and when Chloe pulls back, her cheeks are positively glowing pink through her freckles.]

I'm glad, too. I wouldn't want to spend it with anyone else.

[She's not expecting Chloe to open up like this, to be so candid with her, but honestly? It feels good. To know she's trusted enough to see this side of her. She brings one hand up to rest on Chloe's shoulder, a soothing gesture.]

Chloe, that's...I'm so happy. To know that. I can't imagine what I'd be doing now if we hadn't met. Probably just...pestering Elsa or something all the time.

[Anna leans up on tiptoe and kisses Chloe on the corner of her mouth.]

You make me really, really happy.

[hellablue]

[It's not easy being so open, but. She's trying. And it's Valentine's, so like. When else is she gonna get to be this sappy and it's totally permissible?

Chloe shuffles from foot to foot awkwardly as Anna talks, but in the end she just ends up smiling like a dork when she's kissed on the mouth. Honestly, she feels so much more at ease than she thought possible after that lil feels dump.]

This got hella gay.

[She laughs though, honestly feeling so genuinely happy that she doesn't know what to do with herself-

Until she lets out a huge yawn, realizing it's. Been a while since she's slept.

It's fine.]

Don't say a word, I'm not sleepy. It's just- emotions. They make me yawn. It's totally a thing.

[rediscover]

Us? Gay?

[Anna giggles, leans in, her expression faux-sanctimonious.]

It's more likely than you think.

[She will take any opportunity whatsoever to show off her burgeoning meme knowledge. Now is no exception.

Anna looks incredibly dubious, seeing Chloe yawn so widely, and shakes her head.]

Uh huh. Sure you don't want to just...take a nap? I bet Munchies wouldn't mind being a mattress for a little while...

[hellablue]

[Okay, that makes her laugh and she just kind of punches Anna on the shoulder affectionately. What a goober. How did she get so lucky? She's not gonna question it right now.]

Dork.

[But uggggh she really doesn't wanna sleep.]

But we've still gotta get food and all that cute couple-y bullshit! [She doesn't wanna let u down just because she's tired.]

[rediscover]

Chloe, it's like...nine in the morning. [She shakes her head, already reaching for Munchies' ball in Chloe's bag, holding it up and waggling it.]

Besides, when we wake up, I have the perfect lunch planned! And what could be cuter or coupley-er than taking a nap together?
