I had wanted to give Luka a Valentine's Day gift and since he loved Jagged Stone I had Marinette help me make a guitar pick with Jaggid's Face on it, all I had to do was highlight a few more colors and it would be done. "Dear Adrien...Dear Adrien...Dear Adrien...Ugh, I'm no good at this love letter writing thing, I sound like a total dork-a-souris," I let out a chuckle as she slumps into her seat.

"Only when you say words like dork-a-souris. Just think about what you want Adrien to know and go from there," She nods when she glances at the scrap paper she was holding earlier and smiles stating "Adrien's letter! That's it, why didn't I think of that before?! I'll answer his poem!" Before I could ask about the poem Alya re-enters the room with a heart-shaped card. "Check it out!" "It's perfect! Thank you!" With that Marinette starts writing on the card when she finishes it and Alya and I remind her in unison "Don't forget to sign it!" Just as she was about to do that a ladybug flew in and landed on the card.

"This is a good omen! Ladybugs are good luck especially in the love department~" Alya says, making Mari nervous. "Really?" "Yeah, you of all people should know about ladybugs." "Really? Why do you say that?" "Since ancient times the ladybug has been a symbol of love guiding hearts on a path to devotion. It was on my blog this week, you read it didn't you?"

Alya read her latest post while I finished the guitar pick. A few minutes later, Alya, Marinette, and I rush out of the bakery, grabbing some heart-shaped candy apples from Tom on our way out. "Come on Marinette, do it before you chicken out!" Alta and I exclaim, standing in front of the mailbox where Mari hesitantly and nervously shoves her card into the mailbox and we cheer before I wave the girls goodbye to meet up with Luka. 

On the way there, I feel my phone buzz and look to see Chloé had texted me, why would she? I tap her icon and an image of Kim pops up, he was in a kneeling position in a puddle, water sprayed on his face and a chip bag in his face, the beautiful pin in the heart-shaped box being presented to Chloé and she took a picture to mock him...
