The scene opens up inside of Melina, and AJ Garrison’s home. Melina was just coming back home after dropping Tamaki off with Ryuji. Melina was happy as it was her first Valentine’s Day with AJ, after they had been married for almost seven months now. Melina parks the car, as she walks up to the door, entering it, as she looks around.
Melina: AJ I’m home.
Sitting on the counter was three dozen roses and a huge box of chocolates. In front if it was a card with an arrow pointing towards the patio. Melina smiles as she sees them. She goes over picking up the card, before following it out the patio. She was curious to see what he had planned for her. She walks out and sees a romantic set up. A bottle of red wine...two plates of spaghetti and meat sauce..two salads and a basket of garlic bread. AJ was sitting with his back turned looking out on the beach. Melina walks up behind him, as she slips her hands around him.
Melina: Hey babe, you did all this for me?
She was talking about the food, and wine, as she tightens the hold around his waist.
AJ:Well...it's our first Valentine's Day...I had to do something.
He smiles jokingly as he pours her a glass of wine and hands it to her.
Melina: True it is. A lot of first, coming up in the next so many months.
She takes the glass, as she smiles at him
Melina: You know you are wonderful, and make me better than I was before.
AJ:Sit down before all this gets cold.
Melina: Alright babe, I will.
Melina sits down as she looks down at one of the plates. She looks up at him.
Melina: You have something upstairs for later too from me before bed tonight.
She winks at him, as she goes to take a bite of the spaghetti.
AJ:Good thing we can sleep in tomorrow morning.
He blows a kiss back at her as he takes a bite of his food.
Melina: Yeah we can. It’s nice when we can have mornings to sleep in. At least until we have our own kids, and Tamaki here.
She looks down, as it was something that’s been on her mind. She shakes her head, as she goes to take another bite.
Melina: As always excellent food babe.
AJ looks at her.
AJ:What's on your mind honey?
Melina: Just thinking about the future, and things coming up. Our first Anniversary in July, Tamaki’s birthday next month. He's going to be four. All good things, while also the anniversary of Damien. I hate knowing that is coming up.
She knew today wasn’t right day to bring it up, but she couldn’t help it. In some ways it was on her mind, along with other kids in the future.
AJ:What are we going to do for Tamaki’s birthday? And for Damien we will have to go to his grave after my next fight.
Melina: Yeah we will have to. I was already thinking about doing that. Tamaki’s birthday, I was thinking we could have a beach party, invite friends, and family. Have it be wrestling themed. God I never wanted him to enjoy wrestling, but it can’t be helped.
She takes another bite of her food, as she looks at him.
Melina: Need to think of some gifts for him as well. You know what he is wanting right?
AJ:I'd rather him enjoy wrestling instead of mma. At least until he gets older. And yeah….I know he wants a Nintendo Switch. I was going to get him one for Christmas but they sold out.
Melina: We need to make sure to get him one for his birthday. Four years old, he’s no longer my baby. Pretty soon he’s going to not want anything to do with me.
She shakes her head trying not to think about that.
Melina: Might help he has both Ryuji, and myself wrestling, and has seen it more than your fights. I do agree I hope he isnt wanting to do mma till he is older.
AJ looks at her and smiles
AJ:He's only four Mel….he's still a baby.
Melina: He’s almost going to be heading into school. Alright, maybe I am thinking different than you. Just I don’t know, part of me thinks about how much I missed already, yet how much I haven’t missed with him. Makes me wonder how long I can continue to be a mom, and a wrestler.
AJ:You've done pretty good so far doing all of that.
AJ finished his food as he pours them two more glasses of wine.
Melina: True I have, but it won’t get easier once he’s in school. I will miss out on things with him, because I have to train, and stuff. I don’t know, my mind is thinking about a lot of things, yet it keeps popping in my head that I need to win one more title.
AJ takes her hand
AJ:We will figure all that out when the time comes. One day at a time.
Melina: You are right, one day at a time. Instead of ruining Valentine’s Day with all of this.
She lightly shakes her head, as she looks at him.
Melina: Let’s forget about it for now, and just enjoy the rest of it.
They would both go back to eating, as they talked about other things. The scene would fade out.
