Play Or Stream Video Games
Games like Heavy Rain give you and your partner the chance to pick choices that influence the game's story, making for fun and unique results and time well spent.

Plan The Next Time You'll See Each Other

As such, planning the next time you two will see each other again can be an exciting way to spend your Valentine's Day together. You and your loved one can look at places to spend time in and just enjoy each other's company or even catch a movie or two in the cinema like the couples in the past.
What's important is that you two are enjoying this planning together - if all goes well, you two will also enjoy being together again despite the limited time you two have.
