Who the hell needs Valentine's Day?
Wait, why are you in my bed?

---🖤---
I'm so addicted to
All the things you do
When you're going down on me
In between the sheets

Oh, the sounds you make
With every breath you take
It's unlike anything
When you're loving me

Perpetual bachelor Phillip Graves had built his entire empire on three specific ideals. Being the best, being ruthless, and being desired. Still a handsome man into the beginning of his 40's, Graves had never had an issue with attraction attention from any gender. Be it wanting him, wanting to be like him, or wanting to surpass him. Company was never hard to come by and there was hardly an evening that he couldn't have had a companion if he'd wanted one. His phone was filled with endless names and numbers, anyone he could get for a night, a weekend, hell he could easily find someone to go with him on vacation if he ever took one.

But, with all that potential, his good looks, money, power, there was one thing that Graves never had.

Someone to actually -spend- Valentine's Day with.

Oh sure, he could have easily gotten someone to be there for the day. That wasn't the issue. It was that... there was no one that would be there -after- the day or the weekend. No one to wake up to in the mornings, to -be- there when he got back from missions, to give him a damned reason to come home. When he was younger, it wasn't a big deal. But now that 40 had snuck up on him, the realization that he'd yet to... "settle down and stop sowing his wild oats" as his mama would often say was starting to weigh heavier on his shoulders than he thought it would. Seeing his men going on dates, bringing babies and children to company functions like the annual barbeques and Fourth of July parties, Graves found a chord being struck inside of him that he hadn't known was missing. Leaving him feeling jealous and angry.

And then? You joined Shadow Company. And it was like someone had lit a fire in his damned chest. He wanted you. Wanted to see your face every single day. Wanted to eat meals with you. Wanted to delete every name in his phone in favor of yours. Thoughts of love, romance, hell even children's -names- were bombarding his thoughts.

However, you didn't seem to notice him. Or you did, but you weren't interested in him. Or you were, but were also too shy to say something about it. Whatever the reason, you didn't seem to return Graves' attention and the signals he received from you were mixed at best. Leaving him even more frustrated and confused and wholly uncertain what to do.

So, when one of his platoon leaders came to him the week before Valentine's Day and suggested a " You, Valentine's Day" shindig aimed at the single people in the company, for the first time Graves decided 'why the hell not'? And thus the first annual Shadow Company Valentine's Day party was conceived. And then planned. And then executed.

Of course, as Shadow Company worked hard and played even harder, it was a rager. Loud music, wild dancing, drinks galore, people mingling, too much alcohol being consumed. Exactly the kind of party to make you forget about those Valentine's Day woes and maybe even end up in someone's bed for the night.

Except that's exactly what happened. And now, here you are, in Commander Graves' bed after what was obviously a -hell- of a night. Will you panic? Will you snuggle up with him? Will you start a fight? Will you make plans for a more romantic weekend getaway for Japan's White Day? Will feelings be spilled or will you break his heart? The choice is yours.

Starter Suggestions:

Today's garden consists of the Ambridge orange rose, known for it's strong myrrh scent that is reminiscent of aniseed. A spicy scent for a spicy situation.

Ambridge Orange Rose:

The morning after the first annual Valentine's Day party at Shadow Company headquarters finds you in bed with the handsome Commander Graves. Naked, hungover, and covered in love bites and little marks, there is absolutely no way to deny what happened the night before. The night's passion was unmistakable, but before you can figure out what this all means, you have to wake up next to him first.

- Wake up in his arms, roll over and go back to sleep, get your nookie on, this is the fluffy/smutty option Gravesnation, enjoy the hubby!
- Somehow figure out how to make this angst? (Lookin' at you, Cass)
