Summary: "I love you." "You don't even know me!"

-

Roman was making his way across the university grounds, rushing to hand in this assignment. Apparently he had gotten the room wrong, and now he was running for his life. He had five minutes to make it to the other side of these damn buildings and to find the right place to hand it in or he'd undoubtedly fail.

"Woah, where are you going, random guy from my class?" someone called behind him.

He debated the pros and cons of turning around for a second. On one hand, Roman could be wasting valuable time, on the other, if this stranger actually was from his class, then maybe he'd know where to hand it in. In the end, he whipped around.

"Okay, I may have completely forgotten where to hand in this dumb thing and also, please tell me you know!" Roman panted out. He glanced at the stranger's face and promptly lost his breath he had just begun to regain. Rude.

He vaguely recognised the weird guy as the one who was silent and sat at the front of the room. Roman was somewhat ashamed to admit that he had spent many lectures staring at him as he hunched over his notes. And now, here Roman was, talking to his part-time crush.

"Yeah, I know where it is. You have three minutes to get to Mr Sanders office. It's literally right around the corner." The guy seemed to have an internal conversation with himself, before he finally decided. "Here, I'll walk you."

"Oh my god, I love you!" Roman exclaimed. If he was honest, he had no idea where their teacher's office was.

The guy startled. "You don't even know me!"

Roman finally realised what he had said. And then grinned at the blush his muse was sporting. "No, but I have three minutes to learn."

"Well, first of all, my name's Ann. And you need better pickup lines," he grumbled as they made their way into a nearby building.

"Pleasure to meet you, Ann. I'm Roman." He stuck out his hand and Ann shook it, albeit somewhat begrudgingly. "Also, despite the fact that we sit on complete opposite sides of the room, you recognised me. Got something to admit?" He waggled his eyebrows, but Ann just rolled his eyes and told him to walk faster. When they finally reached the office, Roman paused.

"Don't worry, you go inside and hand it in, and I'll be out here waiting," Ann reassured.

"Have I wooed you with my romantic tendencies?" Roman grinned at the pun that would make his other friend proud.

"Hurry up before I retract my offer and take myself to the coffee shop."

"Why, are you asking me on a date?"

"You have literally twenty seconds to hand that in."

Roman bolted inside.
