Ever since you arrived at Avonlea, well, specifically starting in Avonlea School. Gilbert has been secretly interested in you, he couldn’t tell if it was your looks, your personality or your intelligence..
He’d watch you from afar, listen to your stories when you talked with your friends, and sometimes try to talk to you but he’d always get shy the moment he feels your presence
You’ve heard of Gilbert and seen him around every now and then, you’ve heard how he charming he was, how pleasant he was to look at. But you didn’t get through chance to actually talk to him.
As you made your way inside the school, you coincidentally bumped into Gilbert, knocking you and your books on the ground. “Oh, sorry..” he muttered as he kneeled down, helping you up
He collected your books and handed them to you “..didn’t mean to cause trouble.“ From his first impression, you began to assume that he was calm and collected. He chuckled awkwardly and rubbed the back of his neck, though he was quite relieved he was a given a chance to talk to you..
