Aris Jones X Reader One Shots

Psychology

A/N:I originally wasn't planning on doing a double upload today, but I wanted to thank everyone who's reading and commenting. I read every comment for every fic, and they always make my day. You guys are the best<3

Something I loved with a passion, was always learning more about, is psychology. Humans are just so interesting sometimes. It's the little things about us, like how we change around people or the way we react in different situations. Like grief stages, the bystander effect, and just things that I wanted to understand more.

That's why you can't imagine how excited I was when I woke up to a book outside my hut. I looked around for a while before opening it to see a letter with my name. I had read it over and over. The handwriting was so familiar. I just didn't know whose it belonged to.

Dear Y/N,
Because you love these topics almost as much as I love you
~?~

That was only the first one. It was all about different social experiments in the world. I had stayed up for hours reading it until I passed out on my bed. While I did, I would keep that note nearby. The small crinkle of it in my pocket would remind me just how special it was. I may not know who got it for me, but they sound so genuine and sweet.

Around two weeks went by with me obsessing over that.

Then, I went to grab the supplies to garden from my special bin. They all have our names so people know not to touch them. Still, I could tell mine has been messed with. I was already irritated, because I had assumed someone had just stolen something without asking.

Instead, I opened it to see another book. This one was about how emotions affect our decisions. I just opened it to see another note.

Dear Y/N,
As strong as the feelings in this book are,
the way I feel for you is stronger
~?~

I couldn't help but grin as I stared at the ground. I felt my entire face blush as I tried to think about who could be behind this. They sound so pure. I hope I find them soon, but they haven't given me any hint of their identity.

"Hey Y/N,"Aris greeted. I quickly shoved the book and note where I had found it. For some reason, I don't want anyone to know about these. They're special and private.

"Heyyy Aris,"I drew out. He gave me a weird look before heading to his drawer right next to me. I avoided looking anywhere near him.

"Are you okay?"He asked.

"I'm great,"I answered honestly.

"Is something on your mind?"

"Nope. Not a thing,"I lied.

"If you say so,"He sighed. I just kept staring at the bin, my hands itching to read that note over and over again."I'll see you later,"He added as he walked off. I waited until his footsteps left before pulling it out again. I traced my finger over each letter as I smiled to myself. This was my special secret that only one other person knew about.

I just wish I could find out who. Somehow, I think I've fallen in love with someone I don't even know.

Right on time, as the two week mark hit I found a book and note by the tree I always climb in when there's a bonfire. I just like to get away from it all sometimes.

That's when I saw it, perched on a tree branch. Whoever this person was, knew about my spot. They knew so many little things about me.

Sitting down, I opened it and as always, read the cute, little note first.
