A brave attempt [Valentines 2023 Special]

...

Is the coast clear?

I don't want anyone seeing me deliver something like this out in the open

....

.....

Alright

I better start unlocking that locker of his

My legs were shaking as I approached the locker. Beautifully decorated in his likeness. I grabbed a piece of paper I got from Pollux. Helping me crack the code. It unlocked the door immediately, and without any second going to waste. I put the box and letter inside and shut it back. Locking it so no one would be suspicious of someone breaking in.

Once more, I scanned my surroundings. Making sure there's no one in sight. And just as casually, walked in the other direction of the hall. The sounds of my boots and their heels echoed through the empty corridor. So loud, I didn't realize there were another set of footsteps beside me-

"Ah ah, where do you think you're going Summoner?"

Crap....

A familiar voice rang in my ears. It made me stop from my tracks. And I froze in place. I could feel my whole body shake

Ba-BUMP
BA-bump

The pounding of my own heart went through my brain and started giving me a slight headache. Feeling nauseated, yet I held my stance. I felt a cold presence come close. My body tenses up, my heart raced for each second the person gets closer to me.

"How rude of you Summoner, snooping around someone's locker like that" he voice echoed. The taps of his shoes were in rhythm

"T-that's not..." my mouth was too unstable to even blurt out any proper word. I have never felt this in a long time. Did I even have this feeling before?

"Oh? Then what would this peculiar thing be?"

His hand suddenly appeared before me, his fingernails shined brightly with it painted black with a rainbow shine. It was holding the exact gift I had put inside his locker.

Wait, didn't I just put that in his locker? His footsteps didn't indicate that he took a few steps back to get it?

Yet, I didn't even had the time to grab it before his arm went back behind me. I bravely turned my back. And there he stood, standing so proudly. His hair shined just like his nails as it flows. His hand played with the small box and letter I carefully crafted

His face and eyes stared at me, a part of me knew he was observing my every move. As he always does. Oh, how I hated the situation I have put myself into.

"What a peculiar thing to be sitting inside my locker. You wouldn't by any chance, knew who put this inside my locker?" His expressions turned into a smug grin, eyes similar to a dark emerald looked straight into mine

You know, you knew from the start...why are you making such an effort to make this difficult for me?

While, it is true that I don't know how to properly express what I feel to others. I still want to try doing so, even if it meant taking some easy route for me to do so

"Come on, don't go wasting a sorcerer's time. It's quite precious you know?" His smug look started to irritate me. His eyes slowly formed purple. And he himself moved even closer

It was no joke, I was sweating and shivering. I can't even look at him in the eye. My head felt so heavy that I couldn't lift it either.
