Chapter Text
Sig is an amazing boyfriend. He’s kind, he doesn’t hide his passions, he’s always willing to come along with whatever date idea I have. He hates being touched but is always clinging onto me, he likes being by himself but we’re so close he feels like I’m just part of him now.
But if there’s one thing that’s started bugging me, it’s that he gets me so flustered and he doesn’t even realize it!
Last week he brought me deep into the woods into a beautiful, flower-filled clearing. He starts talking about how it's his sanctuary and how he doesn’t share it with others. Well, actually he said, “This place is nice. I like it.” But I know exactly what he means! The point is, he brought me there and it was like he was bringing me into his heart, but he did it so casually and I felt so super overwhelmed!
It’s been like that ever since we started dating! Out of nowhere, he’d give me a pot of moonsunflowers from his family’s garden because he says they remind him of me. He lets me have most of the desert we get on dates, saying he’s full. He even started giving me presents each month because he thought anniversaries were a monthly thing!
I’m more in sync with him than the others, but I just don’t know how he manages to get my heart thumping like this without ever realizing it.
But today is the day I break that cycle! It’s gonna be me that makes him blush and get his heart to pound right out of his chest! Why? Because I’ve got a plan.
Like I said, Sig likes holding onto me. He’s not the best with expressing his feelings with words, so I think this is how he does it instead. It’s nice to have the constant reminder of how close we are, but I’m never the one grabbing onto him. Today, I’m turning those tables.
When I enter the classroom, he’s already at his desk. Half asleep and gazing out the window, obviously. That’s just how he normally is. So while he’s still out of it and doesn’t know I’m here, I rush over to him and grab him into a big ol’ hug from behind.
He doesn’t even flinch.
“Hey Amitie,” he says, not looking away from the window.
And then I realize that of course he noticed me, it’s so early you can see the classroom reflected off the dark sky in the window! Ugh.
But I refuse to give up! I’ve got a new plan and I’m putting it into action immediately!
I move around him so that I face him head-on and then gently lean forward to give him a quick kiss on the cheek. It only lasts a second, but it should be enough.
As I move back, he has a look of confusion on his face, as if he were lost. He looks up at me before leaning forward. I don’t know what he’s planning until his lips are on mine.
With a small pop , we separate and I stumble backwards. “Sig!” I whine. “What was that for?”
“You missed?” Sig says, more question than answer.
He doesn’t even realize what I was trying to do. More importantly he doesn’t even realize what he did. Like usual!
I huff and cross my arms, taking my seat with a half-irritated, half-heart humping blush on my cheeks and the lingering imprint of his lips on my own.
