《sander sides oneshots [slow updates]》scientific rambles [analogical]
Advertisement
virgil stared at his tutor as he rambled on about some scientist that invented something. he couldn't seem to focus on the words, just the way he fidgets slightly while talking, or the way he pushes his slightly long hair back everytime it falls out of place, or maybe it's every little thing about him. "oh. i apologise for rambling but it seems that our time is up for today."
virgil frowned slightly, realizing he learned nothing the whole time. "oh," virgil began to put his stuff away.
"i never got to ask, are you getting better grades? or do you still need some help?" virgil thought for a moment, should he lie?
"i still kinda need help." he said, smiling sheepishly at logan and scratching the back of his neck. logan smiled back at him.
"okay. do you think we should maybe see each other more often?" virgil felt his stomach fill with butterflies at the thought of being with logan more. at the thought him being with logan.
"yeah! uh, that um sounds cool." virgil felt his face heat up. "j-just text me about the details when you can!"
"okay, sounds great. see you soon, virge." logan smiled then turned away, walking out of the library.
virgil watched him as he walked out. the only thing he could hear was his heart pounding in his chest. he felt jittery, happy, in love. it felt like bliss, and as much as he wanted to be hopeful, there is only one thing holding him back from asking logan out. what if logan doesn't like him back? at most, he likes him as a friend though virgil doubts he likes him that much.
doubt filled his mind. he deflated and slumped in his chair. how could logan like someone like him? someone so lovely, so beautiful, so perfect like someone like him? someone who isn't put together, who doesn't try, who is him? it could never happen. he knows this. but that doesn't stop his heart from hoping someday that virgil could be with logan. even for just a day.

virgil began to slowly pack everything up. there was a no rush anyways. the walk back to his dorm was quick and as soon as he got back he went into his room and screaming into his pillow. connecting his music to his bluetooth speakers and blasting the music.
soon his roommate, roman, came home with his girlfriend. roman sighed, already knowing what was up with virgil. "keep the music down, please!" he shouted through the door.
the music abruptly stopped and roman awaited to hear what virgil had to say. "he is so flipping perfect!" virgil shouted. "and now we're starting more sessions because i can't pay attention when he rambles and just ah!"
valarie giggled a little. "should we help him?" she asked roman, interlocking their hands. "you are literally the romance god."
"i suppose," roman and valarie then sat down to form a plan. the two then sat there for hours coming up with ways to find out what logan likes, if he likes anyone ect. they decided that one tutoring session virgil will have him come to his dorm and do it there. from then on, virgil will get pulled away by valarie so roman can basically interrogate logan. truth be told, val and roman already knew logan liked virgil. the two were basically soulmates.
it was a little after they finished talking when logan finally texted virgil.
lo: hello, sorry for taking so long to text you, my friend needed me. when do you think the extra sessions would be good for you?
you: anytime, i dont have a life lol
lo: yes you do, if you didn't then we wouldn't have those sessions and you wouldn't be in college.
you: i meant social life
lo: well, if that were true you wouldn't be texting me right now.

you: sigh
lo: so what about monday and wednesday?
you: sounds great.
lo: great.
lo: look i know i'm just your tutor but i would like to hang out sometime, from all i know of you, you're really nice and i would love to hang out sometime.
virgil felt his stomach do somersaults and his chest flutter. logan wants to hang out with him. logan wants to hang out with him.
you: that sounds fun
you: again, have no life so im free whenever you are.
lo: well, the fair is coming up this weekend, we could possibly go there.
you: i've never been to the fair before
lo: really? we have to go then! it is so much fun.
you: whatever you say.
lo: i mean it. it is to die for.
the conversation continued for a while until logan went to get ready for bed, you know, like a responsible person. if only virgil could relate.
wednesday came around quick. virgil asked if logan could come over to his dorm and logan agreed immediately. when logan got there, they immediately got to working. every once and a while virgil would slip out of his mind and just admire logan but roman would get him out of the trance, not wanting to hear virgil complain more. "virge!" valerie whined, "roman is too stupid to help me out, please help!"
"im sorry, do you mind if i go help her?" logan shook his head and virgil went to go help valerie, giving roman the perfect change to slip in and ask logan some questions. "so, are you and virge friends? or..?"
"oh, um. well we never established that we were friends but i would like to assume that he thinks of me as a friend as i do him." logan answered, looking back at roman.
"i think he thinks that, he talks about you a lot. all good things, i promise."
logan blushed, "really?" roman nodded. "well what does he say?"
"why do you need to know?" roman smirked at how flustered logan was already, "do you like him? maybe you wanna see if he likes you back." roman winked.
"what- i. no!" roman just smirked. "your secret is safe with me. i won't tell him, but it wouldn't hurt if you tell him." logan just stared at roman, mouth slightly agape at his words. did he just admit to a random stranger that he likes the person he is tutoring?
"val, look, i'll help later. you can wait." logan heard virgil say. he quickly recomposed himself as virgil walked in. "if you really need help call someone! my grade is more important than your problem." he said and walked back to the table that he was working at. "sorry about that." virgil sat down, "where were we?"
logan felt his throat dry up. "uh.." roman cleared his throat as to tell logan to tell virgil. "i forget, to be honest. but um. i was wondering if you would like to turn our "hanging out" into a date?"
this caught virgil off guard. "wait really?"
the author now doesn't know how to continue this but it would be cute n fluffy except my last brain cell is doing the macarena so i cant write that right now.
