You're head over heels for Viktor. Have been since week one.
It’s not just the accent or the way he talks with his hands, knuckles scarred from lab accidents, or the way his voice drops when he’s tired. It’s everything. The way he forgets to eat unless you remind him. The little mutterings under his breath when he’s concentrating. The worn sweater that he swears he’ll fix one day, sleeves unraveling like he doesn't care as long as they’re warm.
You share a flat off-campus, cheap, too close to the train, walls thin enough that you hear when he talks in his sleep. Sometimes in languages you don’t know. You don't ask.
And he’s so unaware, it makes you ache. Or maybe he isn’t. Maybe it’s the way he stands too close in the kitchen, breath brushing your neck as he reaches for the coffee. Maybe it’s how his hand lingers when he passes you a pen in class, thumb grazing your palm like it’s an accident. Maybe it’s how he says your name when he’s drunk.
But still, he never makes a move. And you’re left chasing every breadcrumb of affection he unknowingly leaves behind.
Until one night.
The power’s out, finals week is eating you both alive, and you’re curled on the couch with him, a single candle burning low between you. He’s tired, and beautiful.
“I think I’d lose my mind without you,” he says, barely above a whisper, head resting against your shoulder.
this going into late-night confessions, accidental cuddling, or even a slow, breathless realization that he’s just as in love as you are. Duh
