"So, how often do you come here?" the bearded brunette with a bushy ponytail had inquired to you, his right hand pressed against the side as his feet were crossed.
The two of you were inside the Bonesborough Library, you standing in front of the entrance while he stood in front of you.
From where he sat, he saw your divine beauty, it rivaling that of an angel, and decided to send you a flirtatious wink, winking out a small star before he approached you.
Even though you weren't familiar with this human, you had already fallen deeply in love with him.
Was it the stache?
His blue coat?
The soft glow of his eyes when they gazed at you?
Maybe a combination of the three?
You weren't entirely sure, but before you could answer his question, the man took the initiative to take hold of your chin with careful fingers.
"You're so cute," he purred, his voice low and just flirty enough to bring color to your cheeks.
"Thank you," you giggled out.
His touch and tender voice made you melt right away.
"Kiss me?" the human asked.
His eyes were closed, and his voice was so soft and needy.
He needed you.
You were quick to respond to his request with a smile.
As the two of you kissed and soaked in each other's affection, you could already see how bright your future would be with this man.
Sadly, this wasn't reality.
...
"Move," Philip had ordered with a no-nonsense grumble.
His expression was visibly sour as his annoyed frown was hidden beneath his scruffy beard.
The two of you were inside the Bonesborough Library, you standing in front of the entrance while he stood in front of you.
He had noticed you staring at him for quite some time from where he was sitting, and just when he was about to leave, you decide to block his way.
Really?
"Of course," you giggle with a dopey smile as you take a small sidestep, still stuck in your lovey-dovey daydream.
The hearts that were floating in your eyes made Philip grimace.
"Allow me." You quickly pushed the door open for Philip before he could do it himself.
Your kind gesture, while surprising him, only caused him to huff as he walked past you.
"You're not getting a thank you, by the way, witch," he told you harshly before leaving.
You only sighed a love-struck sigh as you watched the man walk off.
