Tell her how I feel.

I **** the words out of my mouth. “A long time ago I was in love. The woman I was in love with…well, she didn’t love me back, but I was too blinded by my love to see it. When she left me. I thought that my capability to love left with her. I have cared very deeply for some woman since then, but I have never allowed myself to fall in love.”

A look of comprehension begins to fall over Sara’s face and I rush the words out of my mouth so that everything I needed to say would be said.

“From the moment you stepped into my office I have felt something for you. I didn’t want it to be love so I have kept in bottled up, but that has just made it worse. I guess I am afraid that I would blind myself again. Now, it’s too late.” I clench my fists and close my eyes.

“Sara, I love you. I know it’s stupid, but I can’t help feeling this way. I’ve tried not to. Believe me, I’ve tried. I had to tell you, if I didn’t, the feelings I have might become twisted inside of me, and I couldn’t let that happen, not to you. All I want to know is if there is a chance you might be able to someday love me too.”

note I know I originally wrote this from Whisper’s POV, but if you want to switch to Sara’s at this point, please do*
