Wirt had been secretly chasing after you for a good while now, hoping you hadn’t noticed the cassette tape Greg had given to your friends, who in turn, put said cassette tape into the pocket of your jacket. It was totally embarrassing, and something he’d recorded himself just for you in hopes that he could confess his feelings, share his interests, and become closer to you.

Stupid. It was totally stupid.

Wirt ran in after Greg, his five year old half-brother, into the house that was hosting the Halloween party. Wirt felt horrified as his five year old brother spoke to some of his peers, and backed up into a separate room, and… bumped right into you in the process!

“I—“

Wirt stammered as you acknowledged him. He’s had the biggest crush on you for the longest time. Wirt felt his heart suddenly pounding in his chest. Wirt chuckled awkwardly and felt his cheeks grow embarrassingly hot and flushed the millisecond he heard you say you’d been asking around for him.

“Oh, wow, heh—“

He tried not to feel too flattered.
