Simon scratched his pen along the pad as he took some more notes in it. He was waiting in the meeting room as he had been called to the government building he often worked at. The call had been brief and had not given him much info from his bosses but he knew it was something interesting by what little info they had told him. So now he sat, simply waiting and taking the opportunity to mark down some notes from his law classes he was teaching.

As always he was dressed smartly and his coat and bag hung on the coat hanger near the door. He could hear the soft ticking of the clock on the wall but he paid little attention to it and it was not harsh enough to distract him from his work. He ear did perk up as he heard footsteps outside the room and he looked up from his notes when the door itself opened. His mouth widened into a smile as he saw who it was. “Well well, miss DiMaria. Fancy meeting you here.” he said standing to greet his partner. 

The table was set and her parents and brother had just arrived at her place which Isa had made sure was spotless. “This is rather small. Can’t they give you a bigger place, Emilia?“ Celia asked as she walked around the townhouse. “Gerard, she has a roommate.” Celia said to her father as if Isabella was not standing there in the room with them.

“I love my roommate, mother. She’s one of my best friends and she was nice enough to let us have the place all to ourselves tonight. Isabella said shaking her head. She took a sip of her wine and hoped that Simon was on his way, the sooner they ate the sooner all of this would be over.

“Don’t worry, Isa. I’m sure everything will be fine.” Luca said just as there was a knock on the door. And Isabella walked towards it but not before taking in a deep breath. 

Simon finished up the dishes he was doing and went to get a towel to dry his hands. He was as always staying at Isy’s place. Right now with all the drama going on he had been here most of the time. He wasn’t avoiding Kristen at their shared place, but he wasn’t going out of his way to bump into her or hunter either. At least not until he had spoken properly with Isy about the whole thing. She had been so busy with this and both of them with work that he hadn’t had time to sit down and see what she had to say about the matter. 

So here he was, knowing she would be home soon and he had decided to give the place a tidy up so that if she had indeed had another stressful day then at least she wouldnt have to worry about any chores. He hadnt made dinner as he was planning on them ordering a pizza later. He was still in the kitchen when he heard the door open. She was home, and hopefully seeing the place all tidy would relax her right away. “hey babe, im in the kitchen.”

Simon was in his finest outfit and was watching the room full of people dressed just as nicely. The dance was going very well and the music played on. The decorations made the place look like a real fancy event hall and everyone was clearly enjoying themselves. The families being here made it seem even more packed than normal and the town was teeming with the energy of the whole event. Some people had ups and downs with their family members that had arrived but all in all the event seemed to be bringing happiness to the town in general. Simon himself was a little sad he had no one to invite. However with meeting Isabella's family and helping out with keeping things running smoothly he had been more than busy enough.

He gave a family member some directions and then he made his way across the room when he spotted who he was looking for. Isy, all dressed up and looking more stunning than any thing or person he had ever seen in his life. She was finishing up a conversation with some people he didn’t recognize and Simon walked up behind her. “My dear, may i have this dance?” he asked with a small smile on his face as he once again wondered how he had become so lucky to have such an amazing and beautiful girl in his life. “You look like you could use a break from playing the perfect host.” he said offering her a hand and nodding his head at the dance floor as an elegant song came on.

Simon sighed as he closed his book he was reading. His eyes had done enough reading today. Also he had only picked the book up whilst he waited on the dinner to finish cooking. He looked over to the over timer from the kitchen stool he had been sitting on in Isy’s apartment kitchen. In his mind this place was more of a home to him as well these days. He set the book down on the counter and moved to finish preparing the food, taking it out of the oven and plating it up. A nicely seasoned chicken with some other stuff for the side.

A few minutes later he was putting the plates on the table and went back to get some wine from the kitchen. He was still not a drinker but he knew that when Isy got home a nice glass would be well received. Then he heard the door as if she was arriving home on cue. He turned and walked to the hall to see her enter. Today he was in casual pair of jeans and a long sleeved black top. His shoes were already discarded by the door. “Hey there beautiful.” he smiled at her.

Happy Valentine’s Day, Love. 

This is something small but I hope that it reminds you that a part of me is always with you. I love you with all of my heart and I’m truly the luckiest girl in this town. I not only found my love I also found my best friend. 

I love you, 

Isabella
