A/N

There will come a day when I'll explode and I'll go into hiding and you will not find me. I'll just run away somewhere.

Remember these daily and double updates during those times.

Remember me.

And smile, and say,

BABUSHKA!

'Rachel? I have to talk to you. Do you have like a minute?'

Rae looked at James, the all dressed up James, with his formals and his hair all done. And then she looked at herself, hair all undone, lose pyjamas and a hot coffee mug in hand.

'What time is it?' She asked him, seated at the dining table watching James confront her.

'It's 8 in the morning.' He replied, unsure of where Rae was actually heading.

'Yea.' Rae said, practically groaning, 'It's 8 in the morning, James. And you look like you're ready to take over the world.' She commented, sipping her hot coffee and James smiled.

'You don't... don't look bad either.' James shrugged, pointing at her with his hand.

All Rae did to that was narrow her eyes at the tall figure. 'Please.' She said holding her hot mug with both hands, warming them. 'What do you have to say to me?' She asked, sleepily.

James rubbed his hand over the side of his neck, 'Can we talk over at the balcony? It's um, something personal.'

Something personal?

Rae furrowed her brows, as James walked towards the balcony and opened the windows while stepping out and Rae followed suit. She didn't know why or what, but all she knew was that this is too early for human interactions.

She stood in front of James, the sturdy six feet guy who looked weirdly confident and determined. He had rolled his sleeves than buttoned them for a change and his eyes had been looking down at hers ever since. She then averted her gaze to the beautiful morning view which the apartment overlooked, giving James a little more time to hold up the dead conversation. He was still eyeing her and unable to speak.

'What's up?' Rae asked, clearly feeling uncomfortable by the silence.

'Alright.' James said, taking a deep breath. 'I have to say this.'

'Say what?' She asked, bringing her mug to her lips.

'Hear me out. Okay.' He said, taking a step closer as Rae inadvertently took a step back. 'I've been fighting this feeling since a long time now. Pretty much the very first time we met. And I know, we are two different set of individuals, especially you being a streamer and me...'

'What feeling?' Rae pitched in, now impatient, ignoring his streamer remark.

'I've, I... it's...' James gulped, as Rae kept her intense confused gaze on him. 'I like you. Liked you ever since. You've been running on my mind constantly for the last few weeks, I think a month. And I just couldn't go about without letting you know that I wish to ask you out, someday.'
