Of Presents and White Roses

Seeing how stunned Winter looked at that moment, Marcellus started thinking if talking with her while he was feeling like this was a good idea after all.

Even though he used to break hearts and play around just a short time ago, he knew so little about falling in love with someone. All these brand new emotions felt like a whole other world for him. It keeps on making him do so many things that he thought he would never do. One of them is definitely this -

Marcellus finds himself acting without thinking again. And this time, it really had to happen right in front of Winter. 

"I never fell for anyone before, and I never thought that I would ever do so..." he muttered as he leaned over and rested his forehead on her shoulder.

"But this is just how it is. This is how I feel." 

"Just so you know, you look pathetic right now..." she then blurted out bluntly, making him flinch.

"Won't you hate that feeling of yours if I were to say that?"
