Tell Her

A Tobe/Loey thingy (not exactly an Oneshot, and not exactly themes. Hmmm…..)

3 Words

3 words. That's it. That's all he had to say to her. Her. Beautiful, sensitive, brave her. Wait, focus.

He breathed in deeply. He had the whole thing planned out. A walk. A bracelet. Holding hands. Then 3 words.

He sighed. How could 3 words cause him so much hassle? People say that when you're a teenager no one understands. They were right. He couldn't talk to Kel about it – for a girl, she sure didn't understand women. And Dom wasn't much help either – he was off making goo-goo eyes at Kel. The third company only laughed and gave very unhelpful advise – funny, but unhelpful. He daren't go and talk to Sir Raoul – the man might as well be one of the giants he was famous for hunting.

He sighed again. What's a fifteen year old to do when he was in love?

Conflicts of Opinion

He remembered once a girl pulling the petals off a flower, repeating to herself 'he loves me, he loves me not.' He always wondered what the outcome was.

Well, now, he was about to find out. In the stables, in the loft, in the corner, where no one ever came – not even Kel to find him – he sat there in the dark, silently pulling petals off a flowers, saying the words over and over in his mind: tell her? Don't tell her? Tell her? Don't tell her?

Things were going marvelously until he ran out of petals, and it fell on the 'Tell her' petal. But he didn't worry too much – he had lots of flowers with him, and he didn't have to be anywhere. He decided to give it the best 2 out of 3.

The best 3 out of 5.

The best 7 out of 10.

Damn. Even the flowers wanted him to tell her.

Nervous Much?

Breathe, he told himself. In, out, in, out. You've done this you're whole – except when you're swimming – you shouldn't have any problems now.

So why was his heart fluttering, his breath not even getting through to his lungs, and his face felt like in was on fire when her hand and brushed against this? Why did his body react like this when he saw how the moonlight caught her eye the way it did? Made her seem to glow?

"Tobe, are you alright?" She asked him.

He stuttered. Opened his mouth. Say something you idiot! His mind screamed at him.

"Hnghrufble."

Damn.

"What?"

Tobe groaned. Nervous much? His traitorous mind whispered.
