A 12-year-old McQueen was smiling from ear to ear in a photo with young Duff back in the days of Lizzie McGuire.

McQueen also tweeted the photo to Duff, who may have not caught whim of the photo as there wasn't a reply from her end.

"The Vampire Diaries" star admitted to crushing on her with his caption, "back when I met my crush."

In his spare time, McQueen continues to tug at the comic fans hearts by showing how much he enjoys them.

McQueen tweeted twice referring to how much he enjoyed "The Flash" another CW show which was teased in the last season of "Arrow."

One of his tweets also hinted to Robbie Amell's character on "The Flash," Firestorm.

His character Jeremy on "The Vampire Diaries" made a revelation last week when he noticed that his rebound is unable to be compelled.

With the information it looks like he may finally snap out of dealing with losing Bonnie, in turn helping, Elena (Nina Dobrev) and the rest of the group bring Damon and Bonnie back from the past.

This week they will look to finally begin their stand against some vampire hunters in Mystic Falls on The CW hit, "The Vampire Diaries" which airs tomorrow.
