"Classified Confession" -Wilbur Soot X Reader

Chapter 5: Calm Before the Storm

"Hello Y/n!" Wilbur's familiar voice called out from behind the door, "Want to come wood-chopping with me?" He asked.

Grabbing my coat and hurrying to the door I opened it, a chilly gust of wind entering the cottage. Now was the time to get more information about Wilbur!

"Sure I'd love to! Let me go get my axe," I walked into the house and came back out with the iron tool. Under other circumstances I would have laughed just remembering how Dream would be taking this place over with an axe soon, but it didn't seem polite here.

"Ready to go?" His smooth monotone voice questioned.

"Yes sir!" I giggled a bit with my own remark.

Wilbur blushed a little bit, "Alright then... You can just call me Wilbur y'know?"

"Yeah I know, but it's cute to see you all flustered like this," I admitted to him.

He coughed, signaling he wanted to change the subject. The trek continued in awkward silence after that, the sky darkening with clouds and signs of rain already beginning to worry me. It wasn't exactly good luck to be caught out in bad weather.

We both arrived at the clearing where we chopped some wood together. Neither of us talked once again, it just didn't seem all that fit for this time. Of course, I was still on the mission of gathering information. However, I couldn't help but feel that I might be beginning to develop feelings for the L'manburg leader. He could make me feel ways that I didn't understand, and that was when he wasn't talking. Oh how I would have loved to sit with him and just stare at stars while he rambled about one thing or another. How lovely that would be...
