They both kept talking, Abbie stared at her as she talked about her interests. His heart was beating so loud that you could hear it from the entrance of the library. He just wanted that, to hear Lana talk about what she likes for hours and hours.

Lana:"Oh and the other day I was looking for a cardboard but I didn't find it and-"

She stops for a moment realizing the way Abbie looks at her, it's a sweet look with a glow in his eyes. Although she can notice his tired expression there is love in him.

Lana: "Well... I think you were going to tell me something true? Your eyes are shining like stars..."

She says as she approaches to kissing his cheek, he is paralyzed realizing that he has been lost in his gaze for a long time.

Abbie: "I-I... I just like to hear you t-talk"

He whispers as he hides his gaze, decides to be honest with what he is feeling right now.

Abbie: "You know... I feel like you're talking with so much passion about what you like and um... I really like that about you."

- I could listen to you for hours, days, maybe years... Please keep talking to me- He thought

Lana began to blush slightly when she heard that, it's the first time someone paid attention to a detail about her like that.

Lana:"A-Ah Seriously? You're so sweet Abbie, you're gonna make my heart explode at this step hehe"

Abbie:"M-Maybe mine already did it heh..."

He got more embarrased, he realized what he said so he became more nervous than before.

Abbie: "I mean, I-I meant... uh... I like to talk to you"

He says fast as he hides his face between his hands, he really feels his cheeks burning with intensity by the shame and excitement of telling him a little bit of what he feels in words.

Lana:"O-Oh... well.."

She giggles a little because she also began to get nervous as she looked elsewhere.

Lana:"I too... I like when you talk about what you like, you don't do it very often but I like it when you do it..."

Abbie laughed nervously, he could only imagine different scenarios at this moment so he breathes deeply and is filled with the courage to speak.

Abbie: "Lana I-I... I'm-"

The bell interrupts them, the rest time is over! Abbie feels a cold going around his back with some sadness standing up and offering his hand to Lana to help her get up.

Lana:"Oww they just ringed the bell"

She takes Abbie's hand but instead of letting her go holds his hand, he is a little surprised it's the first time she does that.

Lana:"Come, let's go to the classroom together"

She holds his hand on the way back to the lounge. Abbie can barely contain his excitement during the short journey to the lounge, feels Lana's warm hand against his, or well the puppet in her hand but he doesn't care.

When they arrive in the lounge they look for a place to sit together, when they do Lana releases his hand to look for something in the rear shelf. Abbie feels a little sad when she does but tries to keep himself fine since at least there was a step forward on her part.

Again, the class is a little slow and Lana has to help Abbie with some things. Abbie listened hear some whispers and laughter to the background, he is used to that...

Always mocking him for not being as quick to understand things as the others, Lana tries to distract him by surrounding him with the arm while explaining what he does not understand.

Lana:"Look, here you have to do this and then..."

Abbie looks at her with those puppy eyes again, his admiration only grows further but today will be the big day! He wrote a letter for her.

Something that only she knew, Abbie liked writing a lot. But today he had a surprise for her, he wrote a letter with all his effort the night before, her heart is put in each of those words so that's why today is more nervous.

He only looks at her as he explains everything but only longs for the time to leave to give her the letter. He has excitement and nerves all in his stomach at the same time, just expecting nothing to ruin his moment.

The next hours, minutes, and seconds pass while he is desperate in silence. At last the time of get back home arrives and he immediately stands up and saves his things so that he can find Lana in a remote part of the courtyard to give her the letter.

Lana seemed somewhat distracted talking to Petunia until Abbie suddenly took her hand and snatched her out quickly. Lana knew it was for something so she didn't say anything while following him.

When they arrived, Abbie started talking.

Abbie:"I'm sorry about this... I didn't want to took your hand so abruptly but it's urgent L-Lana..."

Lana:"Oh don't worry I know it's something important to you..."

She smiles gently looking around for a few seconds noticing that they are alone.

Abbie:"If well I um... Listen to me... I wrote you a letter, you know how much you care about me and good I um... I wanted to do something special for you, because you're always nice to me."

Lana smiles.

Lana:"Well... I want to see you, knowing you I'm sure you wrote me something nice, little button..."

Abbie nervously takes the letter out of her pocket and handed it to her with trembling arms as he looks away from her. But he swallows his nerves and decides to stay to see Lana's reaction.

Lana opens the letter carefully, the envelope has small flower stickers and some drawings with a nice signature.

The letter smells vanilla and inside it seems to have some dry but delicately placed flowers specifically and she begins to read as her breath stops for a moment...
