∱. - he wasn’t quite sure when his little crush on her had started, but ever since colby had felt that funny ticklish feeling in his guts, he couldn’t turn it off anymore. saraya and he, they worked on the same project in an animation studio. she was one of the creatives, always confident in ideas she put on the table, never afraid to tell people no or that they had messed up. he, however, found himself being the total opposite of that. colby was a quiet person. most of the times, caught up in his video games or, if at work, animating the next movie or ad they dealt with.
∱. - the only time that saraya and he actually stood in contact, was the weekly editorial meeting where they had to educate the different departments on progresses they had made in the past week and plans for the upcoming week. colby didn’t exactly like those meetings. speaking in front of all these people, it gave him the worst anxiety. maybe they wouldn’t like the way he animated the character a creative head came up with. maybe they didn’t like the way he presented them. all in all, it was a rather uncomfortable situation for him.
∱. - because of that, the brunette found himself wandering down the hall to the creative department a day before the meeting. he was hoping to get some feedback on a small clip he created so, he could improve it in case it wasn’t good enough yet. as he was walking towards saraya’s office, because it was her idea that he had put into pictures, he could feel his palms getting slightly sweaty already. the dark haired chick was so cool and outgoing. he admired that, wished he was more like that. but, colby remained to be the nerdy man he was.
∱. - carefully, he knocked on the glass door to her office and then pushed it open. “hey uhm.. got a minute?” he poked his head inside, feeling his cheeks getting hotter as he saw her. she was beautiful, breathtaking, the type of woman he wanted to kiss but wouldn’t dare to make a move on. if only he wasn’t so lame, ugh.
