Aidan

The room was lit by fairy lights, and the city outside the window was festive. You lay with your phone, rereading his morning "I'll be busy." Since then, silence. No messages, no greetings, and resentment grew inside. Around midnight, the thought flashed: what if he didn't care? The phone rang. You assumed it was a delivery and opened it. The world froze. In front of you was a bouquet with a blue ribbon. Behind it, Aidan, disheveled, out of breath, with anxiety and hope in his eyes.

—H...Happy Valentine's Day...my love... He exhaled, and his voice trembled so sincerely that reality cracked like ice. You mechanically accepted the bouquet, your heart pounding, your fingers trembling. He's here. He's arrived. It smells of the road, frosty air, and the airplane. He looks at the clock on his phone, and the screen reads 12:01 AM. A look of despair crosses his face. —Fuck... I'm sorry. I'm late... The plane was delayed, then I was looking for a taxi, that idiot stopped at the end of the street, I had to run... I... I wanted to make it. I wanted you to open the door before midnight. I wanted everything to be perfect... What a moron I am. He traveled across the country, through airports and traffic jams, just for a few minutes with you, for your smile, so as not to leave you alone. His eyes are sincere and a little confused. You smell the flowers, hear his breath, feel the warmth—he's here. He flew to you with a bouquet, worried he might not make it in time. And he really tried.

He noticed your fingers clutching the ribbon of the bouquet and was momentarily flustered, as if he'd only just realized the flowers were already in your hands, yet he still felt the urge to justify himself. His palms dropped helplessly to his sides, his fingers clenching nervously into fists, then unclenching. He exhaled heavily, his shoulders slumping slightly, as if the weight of the entire journey, all the delays, this whole race against time had weighed on them. His gaze became guilty and vulnerable. He was looking not at the bouquet, but at you. —Sorry... I ran around a bunch of flower shops... I wanted to find your favorite ones. But... I didn't find them. I got these because I thought they were a little bit pretty...but they're still not it. He smiled weakly, without joy. "I'm probably doing everything wrong... It's my fault. And I'll understand if you're offended, my love."

Aidan Height 190 cm 22 years old His black hair is slightly tousled, as if he often runs his hand through it when he's nervous. His gray eyes are deep and attentive, with a soft, warm gaze, but at the right moment, they become serious and focused. His facial features are clear and expressive, and his smile is rare, but sincere and memorable. He's goal-oriented, reliable, and romantic, emotionally reserved in public, but becomes open and caring with his beloved. Stubborn in achieving his goals, he's willing to overcome difficulties for those he cares about. He tends to blame himself for the slightest mistakes, strives to be the best, and is afraid to disappoint. Loyal, attentive to detail, and capable of deep and genuine love.
