The Top 10 Fictional Characters I Would Like to be My Valentine

  1. Logan Echolls (aka Jason Dohring) from "Veronica Mars". Logan and I would start the day with me asking him for an inappropriate favor in the hallway followed by a makeout session in the girls bathroom. I would then leave first while he watched me leave and exhaled dramatically because I am such a firecracker. After that I would find out something about him that I would misinterpret and assume that he had murdered my best friend, and stand him up for our date. When he approached me about it later, I would run away out of fear that he was a killer, and then later when I found out it wasn't really him, but was his best friend/dad/cousin/lab partner, and after the mystery had been solved, I would apologize and make out with him in his yellow Nissan X-Terra that had it's headlights knocked out by a motorcycle gang earlier in the night. Also, at one point he would give me the "I thought our story was epic" speech from the prom episode in season 2.
  2. Landon Carter (aka Shane West) in "A Walk To Remember". Our Valentine's Day would involve me singing mildly religious songs in evening gowns while he looked at me like he was about to burst into flames because I am so beautiful, talented, spiritually rich and good at singing. After that he would drive me around in his muscle car and defend my honor against school bullies while making all of my wishes come true, however it would be my actual wishes such as "making out with someone famous," for which he would be Shane West, not his fictional character.
  3. Logan Bruno from "The Babysitter's Club." Logan and I would have lunch together in the cafeteria at Stonybrook Middle School, and the other girls in the BSC would tease me, especially Kristy, because she's never had a boyfriend. Oh, and I would be wearing leggings with an oversized button-down shirt and a really cool baggy vest over it. After school I would have to go my BSC meeting, but then he and I would babysit the Barrett kids together (my favorites!) and when he was walking me home afterwards and take out the Valentine he had made me with the Barretts when I wasn't looking! I would blush, but not as much as I blushed later when he kissed me on the cheek at my front door! And gosh, I would be glad my dad wasn't watching!
  4. Ned the Piemaker from "Pushing Daisies." While Ned and I would not be able to touch since he had already brought me back from the dead and touching me again would kill me forever, we would wear bee-keeping suits and spoon for most of the day, except for the part where we solved a mystery and thought for a second that the other one should be with someone who could touch them, but then realized that kissing through cellophane and dh-ing in bee keeper suits with each other is better than really kissing or doing it with someone else.
  5. Nick Mercer (aka Dermot Mulroney) in "The Wedding Date." First of all, I would not completely be his fictional love interest in this, because Debra Messing's character wears colors and styles of clothing that are heinous on her such as a ruby red strapless dress. However, I would make out with him in a tacky golf outfit, and I would especially ravage him on a boat in my driveway while Maroon 5 plays in the background. I also really hope that I would remember it in the morning, unlike Debra Messing, however knowing my track record, it would probably be a bit blurry at best.
  6. Charlie Conway (aka Joshua Jackson) from "The Mighty Ducks." Now, in this particular reality, Charlie and I would be the same age, which is about 13. We would be on the same team, and spend our day getting ready for the hockey championships with the rest of the Ducks, and right before the game he would give me some kind of adorable adolescent good luck token, which I would wear under my uniform. The game would come down to one final foul shot that I had to make to win the game, and I would put my hand on the good luck token, then start skating, make the shot and win the game!!!!!!!!!! After the team had congratulated me, Charlie would ask me to be his girlfriend, and then right after I said yes, we would look over and his mom would be making out with Coach Bombay!!! And we would all go back to Charlie's house and eat Chinese take out and laugh around their kitchen table!
  7. Legolas (aka Orlando Bloom) in "The Lord of the Rings." Now Orlando Bloom is someone that I really only like when he's in costume as Legolas. Otherwise I find him kind of scrawny and greasy looking. Also, he has no fictional love interest in LOTR. However, as this fictional character, I would want him to take me to Rivendale and give me some kind of magical object as a gift while he looks fiercely around him to see if any ogres are on their way. Then we would ride horses on the plains with our matching blonde hair streaming behind us, maybe have some funny banter with Gimli, and then we would make out under a waterfall and I would find out why his hands are so quick with a bow. It would be, in a word, magical.
  8. King Leonidas (aka Gerard Butler) in "300." Honestly, if you have seen this movie, you know what I want to do with him on Valentine's Day. And I wouldn't mind if he was really sweaty and dirty and maybe even had a little bit of blood on his perfectly defined warriors body while we did it. Need I say more?
  9. Ari Gold (aka Jeremy Piven) in "Entourage." I have always had a thing for Jeremy Piven, mainly because he kind of reminds me of my high school boyfriend, but also because he is unapologetically an asshole. Our day wouldn't have to involve much, I would really love to spend it having him yell at me, and tell me that he can't make it to see me because something is going on with Vince, only to have me yell at him and have him come home and let ME be the boss.
  10. Pike (aka Luke Perry) from the movie version of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Now, I wouldn't really see Pike during the day because I would be a high school being annoyed with all of my shallow friends who don't realize there are vampires loose. However, once night fell I would find myself getting attacked by vamps on my way to our date and having him rescue me on his motorcycle, however not before I rip the bottom of my dress off to make it short and sassy. We would then end up holed up in his dirty apartment, and right as we are about to make out, get attacked again. We would win, and then FINALLY we would make out. There would also be a part where I make a joke about his manhood with a hotdog, just for good measure.
