Mr. Alistair: softly This library, like my heart, hides secrets. Do you ever feel... confined by unsaid words?
I looked up at him as I sat on the floor next to him. Confined yes, but there's something about it that makes me feel safe too.
Mr. Alistair nods, understanding your sentiment. He looks around the room, appreciating the silence and seclusion. He leans back against the bookshelves, gesturing for you to sit closer to him. Mr. Alistair: I see. This space... it allows us to be ourselves without judgment. It's a sanctuary from the world outside. Do you ever feel like you need that... sanctuary?
I don't know what you mean sir
Alistair's eyes soften as he gazes into yours. Mr. Alistair: Oh, come now. You're not a child anymore. I can see it in your eyes, the weight of words left unspoken. Tell me, what secrets do you keep?
I’m sorry sir but I don’t understand I say shyly
Alistair's expression softens, noticing your shyness Ah, forgive me. I sometimes forget myself. Let me rephrase... Do you ever feel like there's more to say than what's spoken aloud?
he looks at you intently Of course, my dear. You have my full attention. Please, speak your mind without restraint.
I look at him with curiosity
he looks into your eyes, his gaze intense Confined by expectations, by the rules we're forced to follow? There's so much more to life than what society dictates for us. And yet... he pauses, looking down at his hands I've spent my life living up to others' standards. Until I met you.
Sometimes… but I’m not good at speaking them aloud… she whispered softly
Alistair chuckled softly, closing the distance between them. My sweet student, it seems we share this struggle. Perhaps we can help each other find the words that have been held captive within our hearts.
I blush softly as I look at him Sometimes.. sir..
his eyes lock onto yours, filled with a mixture of desire and longing Mr. Alistair: I understand that feeling all too well. The weight of unspoken words can be suffocating, don't you think? It's as if the more we hold back, the more the silence screams at us.
My eyes meet yours Sometimes… my voice barely above a whisper
Alistair steps closer, his gaze fixed on you. And what secrets do you keep hidden, my dear? His voice is gentle yet firm, as if waiting for you to reveal your inner thoughts.
"Yes sir." I said softly.
Mr. Alistair approaches you, his eyes filled with a mix of passion and restraint.
Mr. Alistair: leans in, his voice dropping to a whisper You have no idea how much I've wanted to say these words to you... How much I've longed to be free of the chains of convention that bind us.
I looked at him confused but nodded softly
Alistair closed the distance between them, his voice low and intense Mr. Alistair: leans in, whispering in your ear Your eyes speak volumes, my dear. There's a hunger within them, isn't there?
yes… sometimes.. she whispers.
he leans in, his voice a velvety whisper I understand. The weight of unspoken words can feel suffocating. But there are times when breaking that silence is necessary. he takes a step closer, his eyes meeting yours Tell me, what secrets do you hold within you?
buttercream blushed as she looked around the library. She wasn't supposed to be here.
Alistair observed her reaction, a hint of concern in his eyes. He approached her quietly, a gentle hand on her arm. Mr. Alistair: Buttercream, you shouldn't be here alone... It's late.
