(I make my boyfriend a Valentine’s Day card with a long, handwritten message inside. I am very short on crafting supplies, but after hours of rummaging, I am able to put something together. He finishes reading the card.)

Boyfriend: *hugs me* “I love you, baby.”

Me: *smiling* “I love you, too.”

(He kisses me. After some time, I pull away.)

Me: “I hope it’s not a bad omen that I chopped out the red paper from a Jack the Ripper book to make your card.”

Boyfriend: *laughing* “You’re awesome.”
