As Harry's cab driver drives us to the laboratory, I pull in my headphones into my ears falling into the world of music and forgetting reality for just a few minutes of my life. A few minutes past by while my heart rate only keeps increasing faster, knowing I'm going to face Otto again, after that tension between us wondering what would happen next if he didn't stop. Listening to my music suddenly I hear the cab door open and see Peter dragging me out and unplugging my headphones out of my ears. "Seriously Peter what was that for?" I say with my fists clenching softly as I turn a bright shade of red. Peter scoffs under his breath realising we arrived at the laboratory, we walk through the gates of the laboratory, seeing his tall figure stand there once again with a beautiful red turtle neck jumper he was wearing along with some grey pants, I muttered under my breath *God he's cute..* I suddenly snap back when Peter realises I was caught in his beautiful brown eyes once again he nudged my shoulder couldn't help but feeling embarrassed i feel a bright red of blush creep across my face. Stepping more closer to him I could feel my heart rate increase not sure how to feel at that very moment when suddenly a nice lady comes towards me greeting me with a nice smile. "Oh well hello handsome!, my husband here told me a lot about you" as words kept coming out of her mouth I caught Otto's gaze connect with my eyes blushing bright red when I tried to brush off his stare while this nice lady named "Rosie" spoke to me. 

It suddenly felt like a arrow hit me slowly feeling tears form in my face trying to hold it back as  Rosie greets us to the dinner table, bursting off that weird feeling once again. When everyone once  sat down on the table, everyone starts eating.

(An hour and an half goes by)

"Are you sure you can stable the fusion reaction Otto?" Peter says with a stern look then looking at me while raising an eyebrow.  


"Peter what have we been talking about for the last hour and a half ever since we sat on this table hm?, Of course dear boy I have everything under control along with my wonderful assistant helping me" he says sipping his cup of tea then placing it down. As the tension then cools down a bit Rosie looks up smiling at me. "So dear Y/n do you have a girlfriend? or anyone special I must say" She saying while taking a small sip of her tea smiling at me. Sweat fell down my face, feeling a bright shade of red wash across my face not knowing what to say, remembering his touch press against my body feeling our lips inches away from each other. "Uhm..no not really haven't really anyone caught my eye yet!" I say with a nervous chuckle while I see Peter have a little smirk on his face making me more nervous then ever, feeling more red then ever trying to look all over the laboratory trying to avoid any eye contact. As not knowing what to do suddenly the silence is broken down interrupted by his deep smoothing voice once again. "I'll be back dear Y/n just wants to wash his face so I'll show him to the restroom" Rosie nodded at Otto while his hand made contact with mine slowly holding tighter around each other. I couldn't help but feel my hear beat increase feeling nervous but also excited by the fact he decided to hold my hand the way his big warm hand wrapped around my normal size hand, the way he tightens his grip as we walk closer to the bathroom he locks the bathroom door behind us so no one could come in. Feeling his gaze staring right through my skull taking a small gulp I look down playing with my hands not knowing what to do, still looking down he put his arm on my shoulder sending me shivers down my spine and giving a bit of the butterflies along side with it like getting your side portion in a restaurant. He takes a deep breath then speaks still keeping his gaze on me. "Darling there's no need to beg nervous around me I won't bite" he says keeping deep eye contact with me, my heat starts beating in a fast paste, not sure what this feelings was...*I don't think I'm straight...I mean just look at him with his beautiful hazel eyes alongside with his smooth light milk brown hair..*  I snap back into reality when I realised it happened again, caught in his gaze once again.

(Otto's Pov:)

*I couldn't get my eyes off him, with those pair of eyes shining so bright like a flower blossoming out of it's shell, he's seem like a sweet boy, I- mean a person I like having around as company. I try to wipe those weird thoughts off about him, I can't do this to my dear wife I could never I love her, she's done so much for me alongside this boy named Y/n I can't do this to either of them. They would both hate me, but I shouldn't be focusing on such things I should be focused on my dream, a dream that was just going to come to life in just a few  days*.

Grabbing a tissue I wipe of the sweat of his face while he looks at me not being nervous around me anymore. "Well..thank you Otto for worrying about me but I am okay I promise you that" he says giving his soft smile. As the tension rises the tension suddenly stops when we get interrupted by Peter, letting out a little groan, rolling eyes mumbling something under my breath being a bit annoyed got interrupted by Peter at this very unique moment me and my dear Y/n were having. "Are you guys making out in there or something?" Peter says letting trusting out laughing then suddenly switches up in a completely different mood. "No but seriously guys I need to pee you guys have been in there for ages" I feel a burning turn of red spread across my face suddenly getting flashbacks at the kitchen, as the way I lashed onto him so he wouldn't escape under my control. I suddenly get out of those thoughts and open the door while me and Y/n get out f the bathroom, feeling nothing left but flustered. Looking at Y/n I could tell he could feel the very same thing. "I am so sorry he says those type of things! I understand if what he said was uncomfortable I can go talk to him if you would like" he says in his soft voice making me heart beat in a faster paste. "No dear it's fine teens say many things now a days" I say reassuring him as we head back to the table. 

(No one's pov:)

Sitting back on the table we talk more about Otto's project. "Well that was one big meal" he says chuckling when he turns around seeing that he still had a lot of work to do for the project. "Well I better get working again I excuse myself from the table and thank you darling for the amazing food you had cook us" he says getting up and giving his wife a small kiss on the cheek. 

*Why...why do I feel like this around him. Why did he grab me that night by the counter??? Wy did he hold my hand to take me to the bathroom?? I shouldn't be feeling like this..I mean pfft no way it can be jealously, ha no! I would never be jealous over my professor being in love with this women who is his wife right???* 

"Y/n's doing it again, he's zoned out I don't know why he keeps doing this" Peter grabs me by the shoulder and says bye to everyone while I'm still half zoned out taking me back to my apartment  . "Hey! What the hell Peter?!" I gently push him off. "Y/n you seemed to be looking at him again, I mean your always giving him these looks then zoning out!" Peter says  brushing out his words like a waterfall. "Peter it's normal!! I think your insane I can tell you have been watching to many romantic movies!! and no I only see him as a...as a friend...you can say" I say looking nervous not even sure what he was to me anymore. He smirks suddenly sending a shiver down my spine, walking around me in circles. "I see the way you look at him Y/n" he says walking off leaving slowly which sends a cold shiver down my spine.

As Peter leaves I turn around to see Otto working at his desk again. "Hey dear can you hand me that sample it's in a small grey metal box!" he says  while humming a tune,  with my hand I pick it up handing it over to him when our hands suddenly come in contact again. Both staring at each other I feel myself heating up not knowing what to do. My heart had a fear I was going to fall in love with this man.
