Ch. 5: The hell is love?

[Donnie's POV:]

It's been exactly three days since the day I met Veela. And I am kinda glad I did meet her. Not saying I am expressing that gladness, but still. I don't know...perhaps it was something about her big, brown eyes. I mean.. she is pretty. I mean, she's definitely not ugly. If I am being honest.. I kinda wanna see her again.

Perhaps we could learn more about each other. Well, I do know she is a genius, like me. That utility belt she was wearing was very cool. It looked oddly familiar though— hmm...

I wonder if she likes dancing... maybe her and I could jammy-jam to my most favorite songs. That'd be cool. Her accent scratched my brain.. in a good way. I could definitely tell that she was a Latina. —I scanned her ethnicity, so I didn't technically know what she was exactly, but I knew she was probably Hispanic. Which she was. And obviously I knew that.

I kinda I wished my words didn't trail off like that when I introduced myself to Veela. But her— prettiness caught my attention. I've never seen someone so.. pretty like Veela. I mean April and Zoey are quite pretty, but Veela... oh Veela... her beauty was something else.

There's this weird feeling in my stomach when ever I think about Veela. I'm gonna be honest I haven't really had this feeling, except when I see Atomic Lass, but I would never ever think I feel it for someone else. What are these symptoms? I must find out. I have to find out.

I login into my computer and search up: "Why do I find this girl I met attractive? And why do I feel weird when I think about her?"

Many research websites popped up, but one in particular caught my eye.

Symptoms of falling in love:

You can't stop thinking about the person. ...
You know them better than anyone else. ...
You often think about a future with the person. ...
You prioritize spending time with them. ...
You feel safe. ...
You're more affectionate. ...
You feel actually on top of the world...
You find them attractive...
They make you get butterflies in your stomach.

I didn't relate to all of the points in the website, but a few were what I was feeling right now. Love. Love? The hell even is love anyway? I mean, I know what love is. But I've never actually felt it before. I hardly believe I am in love with Veela. Like... I just met her! How can you fall in love with someone you just recently met? Gosh.. this feels like a fairytale.

Maybe I should do something else to get Veela off my mind. Y'know what? I should try to come up with ideas for inventions! Yeah.. that'd help me get rid of this feeling.

✿

It didn't work one bit. I couldn't come up with one single idea, because I couldn't stop thinking about Veela. Did she put a curse on me? Surely that isn't true. I don't really believe in curses. All that weird 'magical' witch stuff. Yuck.

Then just why couldn't I kick Veela out of my head?.. Every thought I have is just Veela Veela Veela! Why?! This is getting really frustrating. What if I get some sleep? Maybe my never to become true dreams will show Veela the exit out my nice, big brain. ༼ •̀ ₒ •́ ༽

I walk over to my room and get in bed. I then get under the blanket and close my eyes. Hopefully this will work. Please work ('∩｀。)

Okay, brain... do your work and dream!

...I can't sleep. Why can't I sleep? Is it because Veela is still on my mind? Perhaps if I think about something else, I will be able to fall asleep...

Uranium... Atomic Lass... Science... beach balls— oh wait I don't want nightmares. ...pizza ... tech... Veela. Ugh! Not Veela! Stop thinking about her brain! Bad brain >:(

Aww.. I'm sorry, brain. I didn't mean it. Sigh... why can't we just stop thinking about her!? Fuck you and my weird attraction towards you, Veela! ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ
