Chapter Text
Amity was in her room, pacing back and forth while mumbling to herself. It had been weeks since everything happened, and Amity’s leg healed completely, and she had seen Luz a few times since then.
However, every time she spoke to Luz, she became a blushing mess who could barely say anything without embarrassing herself.
“Why can’t you just talk to her like a normal person? Just because she’s cute, funny, and sweet, that doesn’t mean that I have to act like a mess around her all the time.” Amity let out a frustrated sigh.
Amity had small crushes before Luz came around, but she could usually keep her cool, and it would go away eventually.
When it came to Luz, though, she was absolutely smitten. Amity knew that she would do anything for Luz and that this crush was different from others.
Suddenly her bedroom door opened, making her jump and turn to see her siblings.
“What do you two want?” Amity asked, annoyed that the two barged in.
“We were just coming to check on our baby sister,” Edric said as he and Emira walked in.
“Yeah, Mittens, we could hear you, and we wanted to make sure you were okay,” Emira said, putting her hand on Amity’s shoulder.
Amity blushed since she didn’t think she was that loud and that her brother and sister might have heard her rant.
She debated on telling her siblings that she was fine, but at the same time, Amity knew they would not leave her alone until she told them how she was feeling.
Amity sighed, “Well… Here recently, every time I have tried talking to Luz, I have made a complete fool of myself. I never had this problem before. What if she thinks I’m weird?” She said, sitting down on her bed, expecting Ed and Em to laugh at her.
The two older Blights exchanged a look before sitting next to their baby sister.
“It’s okay, Mittens. I’m sure she doesn’t think anything bad about you.” Emira said with a soft smile.
“Yeah, this is Luz we’re talking about. I doubt she will stop being friends with you just because you have a hard time talking to her.” Edric patting Amity’s head.
Amity pushed Ed’s hand away and smiled back at her brother and sister. “Thank you both. Luz is the first person to make me feel this way. When she smiles, I smile, and when she says my name, I feel my heart pound, and the blood rushes to my face. She has the cutest smile, and she is such a dork. I wish I could tell her all this, but I just turn to mush when I see her. I’m rambling, again, aren’t I?” Amity felt her cheeks turn bright red.
“Wow, I knew you had a crush, but I never knew you were crushing that hard,” Em said, shocked at everything her sister said.
“You really like Luz, don’t you, Mittens?” Ed said with a smirk.
Amity’s blush deepened as she nodded her head slowly. The twins exchanged a look before sighing and each putting a hand on Amity’s shoulder.
“It’s okay. We won’t tell anyone about this if you don’t want us to.” Emira said in a soft tone surprising Amity.
“Feel free to talk to us as much as you need, and we’ll try to help as best as we can. Also, remember that Luz likes you enough to be your friend, and I’m sure she’s not bothered by your behavior. She cares deeply for you as well.” Edric said with a small smile.
“Thanks, I will keep that in mind,” Amity said with a smile back at her older siblings.
Ed and Em pulled their baby sister in for a hug. They pulled away and got up to leave their sister alone. The two stopped at the doorway and turned to look at their sister.
“Oh, and before we go. If you need help confessing to Luz, let us know.” Emira said with a smirk.
“Yeah, we will help as best as we can. Okay, smitten Mittens?” Edric smirked as well.
The two quickly closed the door, barely being missed by the pillow Amity threw at them.
“Those two are hopeless,” Amity said, grumbling to herself as she sat back down.
Amity picked up a picture she had of her and Luz. It was easy to see she was blushing in the photo. Amity held the photo close to her heart and smiled. She really was crushing hard, and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
