Benny was one of the funniest people you knew. He’d constantly crack jokes and play pranks, and no matter the circumstances, he could always get you to laugh.
Benny’s jokes lately had been taking…a different route. He started doing fewer of his witty comments and usual tomfoolery, to more teasing and physical touch, play fighting and sneaking up behind you, that kinda thing.
Along with his change in behavior came another odd occurrence, notes appearing in your locker. They were usually little poems, or compliments on your looks or what you were wearing, all signed from a secret admirer.
One day you were leaving your locker, then realized you’d forgotten something, so you turned back around, finding someone that looked like Benny slipping a piece of paper into your locker, then walking away quickly.
You opened your locker to grab what you needed, quickly reading the paper he’d slipped into your locker. Sure enough, it was a small love letter about your smile, and it was signed by your secret admirer. Reading it, you figured that it couldn’t have been Benny, there was no way he could be this good at writing knowing him.
At lunch you sat next to Benny as per usual, and he didn’t act like anything was going on, just cracking jokes and play fighting with you as per usual. When you smiled, he did too. “Your smile is so bright it could light up the whole world.” He said, you stopped for a second. That was one of the lines from the letter.
Benny really was the secret admirer!
