Trigger warnings~ autistic reader

Prompt~ tumblr anon~ Hi so i would like to request a lady lesso x reader where reader has trouble expressing love and affection so instead gave lesso rocks he found on walks and sticks and leaves that was maybe the colour of her hair and it reminded them of her and one day lesso asks and - the rest is up to you. X

You knew that you loved Lady Lesso, that was easy. I mean truly who could not love someone so magnificent? No that wasn't the issue and you knew that she loved you too. She often found small ways to show you every single day. In fact she'd been hinting at you for years not understanding why you didn't react to her advances. One day she got tired and straight up told you, which caused your brain to place all the acts together and finally see her acts in more than a friendly manner.

Showing love and affection had always been a challenge for you, often people assumed you didn't even show love, but truly that was wrong. You did just in ways that weren't considered to be "normal." Your brain worked differently than most, you knew that you saw the world through different colour lenses than everyone else which made it hard for others to understand your ways. Maybe that's why you were so nervous when you realised you loved Leonora.

You began to think about her all the time and anytime you saw anything that reminded you off the women you felt compelled to pick it up. Sometimes it was a beautifully coloured orange leaf in the fall or a perfect pebble that just seemed to remind you of how smooth her skin truly was. Your collection would grow every time you went out, sometimes you'd collect more than one thing at a time. The next thing you'd do is leave the gifts randomly in places you knew she'd see them. No explanation, no warning and no pattern, you just hoped that they would brighten her day in even the slightest.

One day lady lesso brought up the random gifts to you, asking if you'd see anyone around, you also liked to draw so she associated those drawings with you showing love, completely unsuspecting about you leaving the other gifts. Truthfully you were scared to admit it was you, not wanting her to think it was weird or annoying so you kept quiet. She knew you enough to not push you, so she dropped the subject. The truth would come out in the end. It always did.

That's how it led you to the current moment, you'd just got back off a walk with a tall stick a beautiful leaf and smooth pebble in tow. You decided to drop them off in her office, not expecting her to be there. But this time she was, she was working at her desk when you entered. "Hey love, what's this" she murmured with a small smile gesturing to your hands. You went bright red in embarrassment and handed her the gifts. Keeping your eyes anywhere but her you managed to whisper, "reminds of you love you" causing the older woman's heart to flutter. You truly where the most adorable love she'd ever known. You watched silently as she put the new additions with the others she'd been left and wrote a small note saying "gifts from ml" knowing no one else would know what "ml" stood for. But every time she laid her eyes on the collection she would be reminded of you and the love you held for her. Sure you were a little different, but you had a lot of love in your heart to give and she would take it in any form you offered it in.
