A Journey to Romance
Since this is a full-day Tour, it has been divided into three parts for your confort, so you can pick up what suits you best from our TB Lovers' suggestions for morning, evening and night. Just follow your heart and do whatever love leads you to do! ^_^ Also, make sure you check out Fireflies in Tokyo, the love song specially written by the two best anime poets to go with this tour! ^^;;

First of all, phone your honey to wish him a Happy Valentine Day and in order to arrange everything. You don't have to give him all the exact details about what you're planning to do. Just slid in some brief comments about the wonderful day you're planning to spend with him.

Don't sound too eager, but do let your enthusiasm show. Just leave a little quote of mystery hanging in the air so that your darling will be dying with curiosity when you arrive to pick him up.

1. Morning Glory
The first and most important thing to do is pick up your beloved from his home. Your dressing choices would give him the first impression of what do you intend do in the rest of the day, so wear something casually chick, not so elegant but still charming enough. It's also wise to follow Seishirou's example and bring along some little presents for your beloved's family members, just to let them know what a nice caring guy you are.

Of course, the usual rose bouquette for flattering your darling can be replaced with a more exotic choice, as Seishirou's tulips show. But DON'T hand out your Valentine gift yet!! Save it for the end of the day: the perfect closure to all the romantic surprises you're preparing for him.

On the way to the first romantic stop, try to keep the whole thing secret for as long as you can. Still, if your honey starts making those cute little pouts you love so much, allow yourself to reveal to him at least where are you heading now. Maybe a kiss or two will also help him calm down for a while, specially if he's a teenager! Some soft music playing on the car's stereo will build a faultless romantic atmosphere.

It's convenient that you begin Valentine day with an entertaining, refreshing visit to some public amusement place, like the Sunshine Acuarium in Subaru and Seishirou's case, or maybe the zoo or other similar choices you can make on your own home city, depending on both your love's and your own tastes.

This will set up the mood for a tenderly romantic morning, full of innocent love allure. Just let your sweetheart know he is your first and only love.

Lunch must be totally casual, as a more sophisticated choice would certainly mismatch with the pink aura of simplicity you've stated during the whole morning. A fast food restaurant is the perfect desicion, since both will share an intimate moment without going into isolation. Just make sure you don't bring chaperons along or annoying things like the following can happen to you...


2. Cozy Afternoon
As the day goes on, the mood must also warm up. Take advantage of that cozy aura naptime brings to take your darling to a more love-oriented place so you can start with the proper parade of kisses and caresses. Seishirou and Subaru's intimate choice is a romantic sakura-viewing stroll along half-desserted Ueno Park, but considering you don't live in Tokyo, this can be easily substituted anytime with any other beautiful park with colorful sights.

Use this special moment to go through all those love phrases you've been preparing for today, sweeten up the thing with a bit of passion, but don't let yourself nor your lover go too much. Just let things take it's time, and you'll be enjoying everything much more when it comes the time to go into more serious seduction.

Watching sunset from an absolutelly romantic place like Rainbow Bridge just can't be missed, and it marks the end of afternoon contemplations and the start point to the most intense and passionate moment of your perfect Valentine tour: the night.
This is the time to do whatever you both feel. Kiss, hug, caress as much as you want. Pay no attention to the passerbies' curious glances. Treat your honey as if you were once-in-a-lifetime lovers and let the cozy afternoon turn into the most passionate and tender night.

3. A Night of Passion
Now the sun has gone down and things have heated up, why not spending a last romantic moment at Tokyo Tower, watching both the neon brightness of the city lights and the pale starlight that fills the night sky before going indoors for the most private and passionate moment of your yaoi Valentine.

Love words and whispered comments of the intimate kind should have reached their peak by now, so maybe both you and your lover are ready for the last and deffinitive stage of the day: your appartment. It's very important that is nowhere else but at your place where you both spend the last hours of this romantic day, for the simple reason that you must be the one to play the loving host and welcome your darling with all the attentions you've been planning for him, and that maybe you won't be able to manage that well at a more impersonal place as a hotel.

An air of familiarity and confidence is of vital importance in this moments.

Once you've assured yourself your lover is confortable at your appartment, it's time to cook him the most delicious dinner, so be sure you know everything about his favorite meals. This doesn't have to be much complicated, and it will make him realise how much you really want to make things perfect for this Valentine and he will surely enjoy a meal cooked by yourself much more than any other dinner.

If you happen to come up against Seishirou's same problem and you don't know what the hell to cook, don't spend the whole night putting his same face, just go ask your bishounen instead! It won't break the spell to ask him what he wants for dinner, on the contrary: it will only help things become more familiar and romantic.

Some candle light and your favorite love song playing as a background
will make up the most dreamy dinner you've both dreamt of, and maybe some slow dancing can also come to your mind as you're both getting step by step into physichal.

After the moment of exchanging presents and 'I love you's fades away, it's now time for you to tenderly, carefully and wordlessly suggest to your beloved to get into more serious stuff. You must be absolutely smooth and never too direct with the way you do this, for a blunt "I want to sleep with you" will totaly spoil the feeling of sweetness you've achieved during the whole day together.

Seishirou's move is the ideal solution for the matter: delicate but passionate enough to let Subaru know what he wants and how much he wants it. Like this he can even transmit his same desire to his darling's heart, and so both will reach a total agreement.

Just be convinced your sweetheart feels safe and sure of himself before showing him the way to your bedroom.

From now on, things are totaly left up to you. No one else but you can decide what your beloved needs and what it takes to finish this perfect Valentine day you've spent in the most romantic way. Just believe in your heart, let your feelings guide you and, above all, don't forget love's the most important thing in every person's life. So no matter what others may say about it, keep faithful to your love! ^_^


This is dedicated to all the real yaoi lovers out there
that are many times forgotten when thinking about a 'usual' Valentine day.
My opinion about all this is Valentine means love,
and so every way of love is to be honored and exhaulted
in exactly the same way.

Happy ST. Valentine Day to Everyone!!
