What does it mean when a guy wants brownie points?

Anonymous
I met this guy last week at work and we really hit it off in terms of conversation etc. I am starting to really like him, but he's hard to read, so I can't tell if he likes me back. last night at Midnight, he sent me a text saying, that he wanted to be the first to wish me a happy Valentine's day. I sent him a text back thanking him and wishing him a nice day. He then texted me back and asked if that means he got brownie points. Does that mean that he has feelings for me or might want a relationship?
