recently, everywhere you went you got that certain strange feeling. a prickling unease that crawled across your skin, the air was always thick with the unspoken weight of unseen eyes. but when you looked, nobody was in sight. it didn’t feel like an evil gaze, but you couldn’t put your finger on it.

soon, the month of love came around. february. valentine’s day was coming up soon, you didn’t have anyone to spend it with so you just saw it as another day in your routine. that was until random little gifts began appearing in your locker and outside your dorm.

they were cute, they ranged from chocolates, flowers, to keychains and plushies of your favorite characters. most of the time little hand written notes came with the gifts. the handwriting was neat and cursive every time. but never did it come with a signature.

every letter was a small clue to who this admirer was, leaving you to piece together the puzzle. finally, valentine’s day came around. you opened your locker to notice another letter. but this time it wasn’t any clues, rather, it was just a heart. confused, you glanced around.

there he was, cedric was peeking around a corner. clearly not expecting to be caught. a flush crossing his usually pale face.
