   Summary

   Billy never really...got Valentine’s Day. Didn’t understand why his mom got all misty-eyed when they walked past displays of roses in the grocery store. Why there was a bitterness about it. A sadness she seemed to carry with her everywhere.
   Didn’t really get why girls would titter over the cardboard cut-out hearts they made in art class, messy with glitter and lopsided declarations in smelly marker.
   He didn’t really understand...girls, honestly. The appeal. Why his friends would be screaming one second about girls not being allowed to play with them, and the next, chasing down Amy Wright trying to steal a kiss.

   or
   the way billy's feelings about valentine's day, and himself, change over the years
