Love Letter.

Ok, here goes nothing. I've never been good at this whole thing, always messing up my words or simply not saying anything because I'm afraid. It's even harder when it's someone that you work with, who you admire. But I guess it's better I put it down in this letter and see where it goes. So yes, I have a crush on you. I don't want to ruin a friendship, I don't want to scare you off and so I thought that writing it in a letter that is left unsigned might help. Sort of. Like I said, I'm no good at this, but I wanted to try. God I hope that you don't think any less of me for saying that I like you. I don't want to lose you Raistlin.

Love Letter | @mxrvelouscreations (I think)

Raistlin stared down at the letter in his hands in stunned silence. He’d found it on the desk in his office after finishing his last class of the day, and had read it at least ten times over since then, as if attempting to burn the words into his memory permanently.

Someone had a crush on him.

Though the letter was indeed unsigned, the cadence of the words sounded so familiar in his mind, to the point that he even read them in the voice of a man who had grown very dear to him as of late. It had to have been him, right? Was this the reason why Stephen had always seemed so nervous around him? Raistlin could feel himself quickly growing hot under the collar at the thought of his secret affection for the older man being reciprocated, and knew what he had to do. What he’d been wanting to do for weeks. Taking a deep breath, he pulled out his phone and sent off a couple of quick texts.

[text]{Professor Mason 💜} - If you’re still here and have a moment, could you please stop by my office?

[text]{Professor Mason 💜} - It’s nothing bad, I swear. I just really need to see you.

Shaking hands were stuffed in his pockets as he waited, anxious and eager.
