A sweet thing to do
Our tale starts in Marietta's dorm room, her boyfriend Quirinus is visiting her.
Marietta asked, "So, what's with the cloak and dagger act, Quirry?"
Quirinus smiled. "I have been meaning to tell you something."
Marietta gasped. "You didn't stutter!"
Quirinus chuckled. "That's what I wanted to tell you. I have been taking lessons to help my stutter."
Marietta inquired, "Did you do that for me?"
Quirinus nodded and said, "I d-didn't want you to think that my stutter made me less of a man, Mary."
Marietta hugged him and beamed, "While that's a sweet thing to do for a girl, I like you stutter and all. You didn't need to take lessons to improve it."
Quirinus told her, "I did it for me too, now my stutter isn't nearly as bad as it used to be."
Marietta kissed him and grinned. "I bet that the Professors here wouldn't even recognise you now."
Quirinus blushed. "Th-They wouldn't."
