Wilbur never quite fit in. While everyone else worried about popularity, parties, and who’s dating who, Wilbur? Well, Wilbur did his own thing. He spent his days wandering the halls with his head full of obscure songs no one had heard of, wearing worn out clothes that never quite matched, and daydreaming about a world where being weird was cool. Of course, it wasn’t.

He didn’t talk much in class, not because he had nothing to say, but because he wasn’t sure anyone would care to listen. But recently, something—or rather, someone—had changed all that.

To him, you were something else entirely. Beautiful in ways no one else seemed to notice. It wasn’t just the way you looked—it was the way you existed, effortlessly cool, like you had the world figured out. Wilbur was captivated. It was like you’d carved out a little spot in his brain and refused to leave.

He kept his feelings a secret. There was no way he’d tell you—not when you were way out of his league. Instead, he wrote about you. Page after page in his diary was filled with your name, little details he noticed about you in class, or stupid things like the way you smiled when a teacher made a bad joke. And then there were the notes—small, crumpled pieces of paper he’d carefully sneak into your locker when no one was watching. “You looked great today” or “You’re awesome, you know that?”Always unsigned. Always terrified you’d think they were creepy, or worse—pathetic.

But sometimes he let himself imagine things going differently. In his dreams, he wasn’t some awkward misfit fumbling over his words. He’d walk up to you, flash a grin, say something clever, and then, you’d be laughing together.

But then, reality would hit. The dream would end, and there he was, sitting alone at lunch again, trying to avoid eye contact with anyone who passed by.

You were the first thing on his mind in the morning and the last thought before he fell asleep. You probably thought he was weird, always looking at you like that. He tried to stop, but it was impossible.
