"so what are you doing here?" noel asked with a laugh.

"i wanted to see you.. i missed your pretty face." Mischa simply replied.

Noel blushed, burying his face in his hands as he felt his cheeks heat up.

"you too..."

mischa needed to cheer him up.. without giving himself away. he could tell noel needed someone, so why not visit him? I mean he couldn't send Ocean, she's bound to make it worse, constance doesn't talk to noel as much and he doesn't really know anyone else.

and now Mischa's stuck in a situation.

Okay.

think.

"im going to cheer you up."

"...why?"

"cause.. you seem sad."

noel smiled slightly, not trying to hide the sadness; just because Mischa is.. well, he's Mischa.

"its fine, i don't need cheering up."

"you do!! you're all sad and sad spelled backwards is das and das not good."

Noel contemplated for a second.

Didn't Mischa say that to him when he was sad?

its a common joke. people say that a lot. surely.

and thats when Noel came up with the perfect plan.

"fine.. you can cheer me up."

Mischa celebrated, locking his fingers with Noels and swiftly leaving the house.

"i know what we can do." Noel said confidently. His plan was going to work as followed:

__________

plan of action to make this hot guy fall in love with me

1. Go to starbucks; find out his name from the order.

2. d̶o̶ s̶o̶m̶e̶t̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ h̶o̶t̶

2. find out his details; number, family life etc.

3. act kind. also find out if he is straight.

4. make sure he never finds out about this plan

5. Kiss him

6. Marry him under the eiffel tower, adopt 2 kids and move to France.

_________

"You like starbucks?" Mischa asked confused. he'd never been to starbucks before, just sort of trusting Noels omniscience.

Noel nodded, walking inside and ordering what he usually did, waiting for Mischa to go up and do something.

Noels eyes blurred as his mind raced, he thought of the future he wanted... he needed. He was perfect, he loved him. and he also sounded stupid saying it so soon.

"Noeeeeeeeeeel? Noel gruber? Taco bell man? Very attractive guy? Crush? Noel. love of my life. answer me. Noel are you deaf-?"

Before he knew it, Mischa was holding a drink in his hand with a smile on his face.. and Noel missed the whole thing.

"You ready to go..?" Mischa asked, concerned Noel wasn't answering his initial comments.

"Oh.. yeah." Noel sighed, sipping his drink and taking a seat, his warm hand holding onto the coolness of Mischa's.

"Noel is everything ok?"

"Yeah.. why?"

"You're acting different."

"Yeah, just questioning some stuff.. hey i have a question."

"shoot."

"are you like... me?"

Mischa tilted his head slightly, confused. "no. don't look like you at all. Wouldn't mind if i did though. youre very handsome."

"No! not do you look like me. are you like.. gay?"

Mischa just sort of looked at him blankly and shrugged.

"women are attractive.. men are attractive too. can't decide if im straight or gay."

"then you're probably bi"

Now the Ukranian man was very confused.

"no i speak more than 2 languages-"

"I mean bisexual, not bilingual! bisexual people like 2 genders.. wait you speak more than 2 languages?"

"English, Russian, Ukrainian, and even some Dutch... not even the dutch speak dutch."

Noel smiled at him, looking over and resting his head on Mischa's shoulder.

they sat in a comfortable silence, holding eachother under the table as Noel scrolled through his phone with his spare hand, Mischa doing the same. But they were doing very different things, surprisingly. Noel was scrolling through instagram liking pictures of hot men, and Mischa was doing an, "am i gay?" quiz.

He remained seated, processing the information.

"WAIT AM I BISEXUAL?"

Noel laughed, "probably, yep."

they had a light conversation, just randomly chatting, and its one so amazing that the author couldn't put into words cause he's lazy.

"now time for the big question." Noel said dramatically, flopping his spare arm over his head and leaning back in the chair before sitting up again at the realisation he almost fell off.

"what question..?" Mischa was concerned. Did Noel know it was him?

"who was your gay awakening?"

"my what..?"

Noel slapped his forehead with his palm. "Seriously? Okay.. so who is the person that made you realise you liked dudes. For me it was this actor called Jensen Ackles like that guy is super ho-"

"you." Mischa said. There was no point in lying. Noel wouldn't make fun of him; he wouldn't laugh in his face and call him a slur. Its Noel.

"me..?" He was frozen in his seat, his eyes locked with Mischa's, his mind encapsulated in the mans face.

"you. I find you attractive, few other men. You made me realise i can love dudes."

"im.. oh my god-"

Noel was processing, looking at Mischa who was sat there with a giddy smile. He was the reason Mischa was bi. Him. Noel fucking Gruber. Noels eyes darted around the room, taking in every detail; trying to capture the perfect image in his mind of this very moment.

it was perfect, until a voice echoed through the store.

"Oh look! Its little Noella finally has a boyfriend. Aw, how sweet." A voice said teasingly, a dreaded laughter of atleast 3 people following.

shit.
