[winn decided to finally

ask you out]

winn always assumed his feelings would just disappear, that his feelings were just little feelings that would go away in a week. however, week after week the crush continued, his nervousness around you getting worse and worse. winn hoped it was one of those, i actually have a friend crush on you, and just want to be best friends.

to his disarray, it was most certainly not a 'friend' crush. winn's next fear was your reaction, if he was to ask you out. would it mess up your friendship? your work relationship? he wasn't sure, so for months he kept to himself, keeping his feelings isolated so that you could both still be friends... only friends.

that was until he had enough of it. he felt like his feelings were eating away from his inside out, not only that but he felt as though it affected the relationship. so he said screw it. if work was awkward it was awkward. he didn't even want to take kara's advice on how to ask you out. it was just an impulsive decision of his.

"y/n, i know we've been friends for a while, but, "he started scratching his neck, sighing a little, "i like you." you raised an eyebrow, you had a crush on him as well, and fought a similar development of emotions. you sighed as well, "of course winn, i will."
