AN- You have the peculiarity to control minds... so you use it on Enoch. Warning: underage drinking, if you consider a 96-year-old trapped in a 17-year-olds body underaged. Also, peep the chick magnet 5000 on the top. On his way to steal your girl.

Your P.O.V.

You were in the village, sharpening your skills by making the pub owner fix you a drink. He usually denies when you first walk in, but that changes after some light conversation and slight concentration. He'll fix you anything. Fancy, bland, strong, weak. And all because of your peculiarity. But, as he was handing you your newly mixed drink, the door behind opened.

"Y/n?" It was Enoch. You could tell. He had that thick accent that made your heart pound.

"E-Enoch...." you said, turning, "hi..." he had a scowl on his face as his eyes stared at the drink.

"What are you doing?" He asked angrily.

"Just... getting a drink." You said, cautiously.

"You're 17."

"96, technically. So it's ok." You said, standing up. You slowly walked towards the door. But Enoch put his arm up, blocking the door.

"Not ok. Put the drink back." He said. You stepped closer.

"But Enoch," You said, looking directly into his eyes, "you don't care if I do this." You said your words slowly and carefully.

"Actually, I do." He said. You were confused but tried again.

"You've told me before. You don't mind if I drink this." You never broke eye contact, never blinked.

"Ok." He said. You smiled. "I'll tell you now, I DO mind if you drink that."

"I'm confused." You started.

"I wear contacts, Y/n." He stated.

"Damn it."

"Down." You slowly lowered the drink.

"Excuse me." You said, ducking under his arm. That whole thing got real awkward real fast.

You walked quickly, through the village and to the other side of the island. Had he always worn contacts, but played along? How come you never knew? You were so stupid. You've "controlled his mind" multiple times, to admit some feelings in hope to seize them. So why has he never mentioned it before?

~Flashback~

🎶Flashback Music🎶

"Enoch, can you come here for a minute?" You asked.

"Uh, yeah. I guess." He walked outside and looked at you, "Yes?"

You started small talk, not breaking eye contact. After a while, you asked him to do something and he did.

"Ok, so Enoch, I need you to forget this." You started.

"Yes of course."

"I like you, like love you, I think. But forget that and go inside like nothing happened." He nodded and walked inside. You sighed, relieved to get that off your chest. You walked inside, smiling.

~End of Flashback~

"I'm so stupid." You muttered.

"I disagree." You jumped, startled by the voice. You looked to your left and saw Enoch. How long has he been there?

"How long have you?.... never mind. I'm heading back to the house." You said, standing.

"Wait," he said grabbing your wrist, "stay."

"Why? So I can embarrass myself more? I'll pass."

"No, seriously. Stay. I want to talk to you." You eyed him suspiciously before sitting back down.

"What you said a few weeks ago... was that true?"

"Y-yeah." You said.

"Really?"

"Yes. I don't understand why you played along, you clearly don't like me back." You muttered.

"I played along because I didn't know how to respond. I wasn't just going to say I think I love you too." He said.

"But you didn't need to- wait... what?"

"You heard me." He said.

"Y-you think you love me?..."

"I'm starting to get the feeling I know." He smiled.

"Really?" You asked.

"Yes, Really. Y/n L/n, I love you." He said.

"I-I love you too." You said smiling.

"Would you care to be my girlfriend?"

"Not at all." You said. He gave you a quick kiss and helped you up. And together, you walked back to the house.

Hey! I hope you liked it! This was requested by @peculalya hope you enjoyed! Sorry it was so short though! I was desperately hoping I could write more, but if I did it would get repetitive and very boring. So, I think short was the way to go!

Very Peculiarly Yours,
