Impossible for studiesallnight

Aune would get to the bottom of this if it was the last thing she did. The letters had been arriving twice an hour for the past three days.  Never by the same owl but always written in the same sloppy handwriting.  They were all short, to the point, and professed undying love to her.  The were also never signed.  It was getting to be rediculous.  She'd already become the topic of gossip for half the girls at school. Would the boys start on it soon too?

Finally, after almost one week straight of the atrociously bad love letters, something different arrived.  A lone daisy, commonplace and rather wilted from the warm weather arrived.  With the flower was another note, this one requesting her presence.

One Secret Admirer requests the delightful presence
of
Aune Wälkky
at
3 o'clock in the afternoon
on
08 September 1976
at
the broom closet adjacent to Professor Pennyworth's office

Aune felt that it would be necessary to go, if for nothing else to hex the arsehole so she could finally study in peace.

So at promptly 3 in the afternoon she found herself taking drags off a cigarette as she tugged the broom closet's door open.  The identity of her admirer was terribly unexpected. Even if she did think him cute.

"Molineux?!?"

Rob stood there grinning broadly.  Aune promptly slammed the door in his face.  By dinner, the entire campus was buzzing with the news of how Robert Molineux had chased Aune Wälkky across campus begging for a date.

Aune sighed.  She wouldn't ever be able to study in public ever ever again.  If Rob so much showed his face, by Merlin, she'd give him another black eye.

what: prompt response, who: aune
