Okay, so girly confession time. I have developed a crush.
I know what you're thinking! Severus. What about Sev? Aren't I madly in love with him?
Yes.....but some things can't be helped.
It all started when I got a new job. It was one of those "you're the new kid on the block" scenarios, and he happened to be the guy who had to train me. Sure, he picked on me with everyone else, but for some reason when it came from him it felt more like 'boys are mean to you because they like you'. There was a huge difference between him and his twin brother, who also works there. They pick on me in completely different ways. I'M NOT IMAGINING IT.
There are only 3 girls in this place, and considering it's a live-in job, it's almost like growing up with seven brothers. Seven brothers and three tomboy sisters. Tough house. It's fun though, never boring at all.
I was thinking this crush thing wasn't going to go anywhere, but then something happened. I went off to run an errand for the dad of the house, and while I was gone....there was a terrible accident. Our father figure was killed, sending the whole house into our weird, tough-kid version of grief. I got pulled into a weird revenge mission thing with my crush's twin brother, but we got lucky and my crush stopped us before we did anything stupid. He reminded us how our father wouldn't want us to be acting badly, it made us just like the scum who killed him. But he was so nice about it, I didn't really know what to do.
He's a bit of a brute, but a kind one. The gentle-giant kind of person. Not wonderfully smart or intelligent, but he's got some serious street smarts. It's charming in a weird way.
Now for the complicated part. When I was tasked with cleaning out house father's quarters, I found some documents that confused me. I'm the new kid, the untrained, the pretty-much-useless. But for some crazy reason, he named me to be his successor. Not in charge of day-to-day affairs, but it's an advisory position of real respect. What the hell was he thinking? But I checked it with his closest advisor and he confirmed it. I don't understand.
That's only semi-relevant though. Back to the important part....
I can't keep living in a house with and working with someone I have a crush on. I can't leave the job, it's everything to me now. Especially with that promotion. So what do I do?
Well there's only one thing TO do, Nova. Go to Riften, pick up an Amulet of Mara, finish the Questline and ask him to marry you. Duh. Surely a member of the Circle and the Harbinger can marry without too much complication.
Off to Riften!

Girly crushes that appear from nowhere are the WORST. Dealing with my own, so I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteIf you and Eric love each other that much then you'll be reminded of that whenever someone else complicates your plans. I'm sure.
