[Now that Sheryl is actually within his line of sight, Athrun grins. Seeing her now made the wait totally worth it.]

I see. And you look amazing.

We're heading to the Overlook tonight.

[The Overlook is a very prestigious, members-only club that overlooks the sea from one of the cliffs on the edge of the city, hence the name. It has both a bar and a dining room; Athrun has booked a reservation at the latter.]

But before we head out, I have something for you.

[Athrun ducks back out into the hall he entered from. He had laid the bouquet in a nearby wall unit where it would remain mostly out of sight until he was ready to offer it -- in other words, now. He picks up the bouquet and offers it to her.]

Happy Valentine's Day.
