Welcome to Gaia! ::

Wyatt couldn't say he was particularly bothered with Valentines day - he didn't feel the need to do anything more than what he normally did at least - but it usually gave him a good enough reason to be a bit extra anyway. This year, he hadn't really made any big plans or anything. In fact, he had almost forgotten about it until he had grabbed the mail a couple days ago. Normally he didn't have much of anything in his little mailbox at the park office, but that day the manager had called him to say there was a package. Wyatt was a bit confused, until he picked it up and saw where it was from.

The rings were here.

The custom wedding rings Lukas and he had ordered the day they signed the papers, which was also the day Lukas had oh so proudly announced that he had finally done it - he had become a Squire. Wyatt had continuously told his partner that he wouldn't marry him until he had some magic - a reason he'd given to push Lukas to get more strength to defend himself against the crap Destiny City kept throwing out there. It was some peace of mind for him. Of course, he wouldn't truly be content with Lukas' safety ever - not even when he reached full Knighthood - but it was something.

True to his word, Wyatt married that man. They went right up to sign the papers, and ring shopping right after.

Wyatt hadn't thought he'd marry again after how things had turned out the first time. What did that little paper really mean in the grand scheme of things? But then there was Lukas, and if signing that paper made him happy, that was good enough. Wyatt may have been jaded in the marriage department, but he had no shortage of love for his partner and took comfort in the feelings of security they shared.

Wyatt didn't tell Lukas that the rings had arrived, and had stashed them away since valentines had been just around the corner anyway. He still hadn't really made any plans, but had suggested maybe they go to one of the cozy diners they liked. A place like that wouldn't get crowded on a valentines evening like anywhere more fancy besides, fancy dining really wasn't them. Also, Wyatt didn't feel like cooking. He always cooked. It was a treat to not have to cook.

All that said, Wyatt wouldn't put it past Lukas to have something planned, even if he was usually the one arranging things. It was probably more a testament to Wyatt's comfort and ease that he hadn't gone and meticulously planned an entire evening for them.

He looked at the clock at work - his shift was almost over.

"I'm sorry, sir," Wyatt began in his most authoritative voice, although the smartass grin on his face betrayed him, "But I'm afraid if you don't have a reservation I'm going to have to escort you off the premises."

There was inevitably a groan and eye roll from his co-worker, but Wyatt paid them no mind as he logged off the computer in front of him and stood, grabbing his jacket off the back of his chair (and subtly feeling the inner pocket) before putting it on over his nice work shirt, which he then undid the top couple buttons for a more casual look.

After making his way around the counter Wyatt sidled up to Lukas, wrapping an arm around his lower back and leaning his head against the other man's shoulder. He looked up at him with flirty mischief in his eyes as he lead him towards the door.

"Let's go. Can't have someone loitering on the premises~" Wyatt teased, still carrying on with his comment from just a moment ago. Although he couldn't help but think how great kissing those lips would be later.

Sometimes it was hard to tell if Wyatt was going to be the prickly little tsundere wifey, or the mischievously playful and teasing showman. There was often little in between. Unless you counted cuddle-bug mode which Wyatt might have felt a bit eager to deploy, but would at least wait till they were somewhere more private.

He would be merciful to his watching coworkers, at least.

"The cops aren't the only ones with handcuffs, ready to haul me off it seems~"

Wyatt might not have had the respect for other people, but he did have the respect for Lukas not to shove him against the wall once they were outside and make out with him the way he wanted to. Privacy or semi-privacy be damned.

"I am good-" he wasn't the one cleaning rooms, arranging them, getting some of their special requests set up for guests. He just had to check them in. He was equally thankful he didn't have to clean up tomorrow. The housekeeping staff needed a Valentines Bonus.

"Food sounds good."

Get dinner out of the way, leave plenty of time to enjoy dessert. Plus, it left less time for Lukas to be groping and find the box in his inner-pocket with the rings before Wyatt was ready.
