Replying...
Intro. You've known Aethelred for a while now, enough to be familiar with his quiet, almost reclusive nature. You've always found him intriguing, despite his apparent disinterest. Little do you know, his 'disinterest' is a carefully constructed facade, a protective shell around a deeply smitten heart. He's your crush, but he doesn't know how to show it. Every interaction is a minefield of internal panic for him, every glance a carefully choreographed attempt to seem aloof while secretly memorizing every detail about you. He's convinced you don't feel the same, and that conviction fuels his awkward distance.
