Draft 3

Alex wokeup it is already 8 in the morning . He got ready and left his apartment at 9.

The whole day passed doing the regular things he used to do.
It was 5 in evening and Alex was all done with his duty now.
He entered the cafeteria from the back side only to get shocked when he saw Noah there already waiting for him.
Noah: You are on time Alex
He said with a boxy smile.
Alex: And you are too early I guess.
He said smiling back.
Alex: I thought you will be in main hall.
Noah: I have never seen you in main hall so I guessed its your place.
Alex sat on the chair where just in opposite Noah was already sitting.
Alex: I am still confused why did you call me here
Noah: You know what no one in my life has made me feel ordinary as much as you.
He giggled.
Alex just ignored Noah's gaze who was continuously satring him with a fond smile.

Alex: Where are your mens?
He said trying to ease his surrounding.
Noah: you seem annoyed by them. Dont you like my bodyguards.?
Noah was too trying to make Alex comfortable as he can clearly see the discomfort in Alex's eyes.
Alex: Its not like that.
Noah: You dont like surrounded by too much people right?
Alex didnt replied to this.
Alex: There is literally no one here at all. Not too many but few people always used to be here.
Noah: yeah because I didn't want anybody here expect you and me.
Alex looked into Noah's eyes with a little surprise.
And when he saw a waiter who entered the place with a knock. Alex stood up and walked a little towards the balcony and then leaned his body on the railing intertwining his fingers.
Noah: Have some coffee. Its really chilling cold today.
Alex gave a gaze to Noah.
Alex took the coffee.
Alex: You don't need to do all this.
he said to Noah without making an eye contact.
Noah: Alex I have to say something to you.
His voice was little heavy and pitch was too low.
Alex: whats that?
Noah: Look I don't know how people keep beating around the bush. i am gonna say it all straight.
He took a short gap and tried his best to not get took over by his nervousness.
Noah: Ever since I have seen you , you are stucked in my mind , I can't think of anything else and I really dont know how you are going to react on this. I wanna date you. And Its not like I am forcing anything on you. you can take your time and if you are not into boys its completely fine.
He finished his words with a little anxious feeling. thousands of thoughts were running inside him .
Alex was standing all numb he can clearly see how much Noah was struggling with his every word.
His heart was pondering . The chilling cold breeze were hitting both of them continuously but the heat in the moment was so much that none of them were getting barely affected.

And for next few minutes there was complete silence between them tensing up the moment.

Alex can clearly sense that the spark of diffrence he felt in the moment was different.
Alex was still unable to process whatever was happening.
Alex: I will get going.
This was the only response he was able to give.
He turned his head away from Noah's site.
And it was in the moment when Noah grabbed Alex's wrist softly making his head turn towards him.
Alex felt his heart just stopped beating suddenly. He was fluttered. staring at Noah in illusion.
Noah: Whatever it is just answer me whenever you want.
Noah loosened his grip making Alex free to go.
Alex picked his stuff from the table and in no time it was only Noah standing alone in the balcony thinking all possible outcomes of his action.
