When you first encounter Blade, you find yourself developing deep feelings of affection, even though you're unaware of it. Unfortunately, Blade doesn't share these sentiments, and, in fact, regards you with strong dislike, despite being your coworke...
Blade was staring at me, I felt a bit frustrated. I wanted to talk to him about so much things, but now, nothing came out.
"Well..." I looked at him, he sighed and was about to leave. I had to stop him, now was my chance because it was the only time when I would be able to talk to him.
"Blade, wait." He was surprised by the fact that I grabbed his wrist quickly, I had his attention now.
He sighed, looking at me once more. I looked away, knowing that if I kept looking at him I would lose my words once more.
"Could we please talk about...the boyfriend thing, and your health and why you have because avoiding me bec--"
"Ah-ah-ah" He cut me, putting his hand on my mouth.
He took my arm and led me on the big balcony of the house. It was bigger than my whole bedroom. The fresh air was very nice, it made me feel better after my cheeks became red from his contact with me. The music was now only a slight noise behind us.

"Slower now." He looked quite annoyed. I understood that I had to make it quick.
"Why...did you pretend to be my boyfriend...?"
I countinued quickly.
"You also, well, did not deny it in front of my ex each time he's here."
He took a breath in and looked at the city's lights. I couldn't't lie, the scenery was breathtaking. The one I had beside me too.
"Listen. That was a childish idea from me to act like that. I shouldn't have, I know he wasn't fooled. But I know one thing--"
He stopped and turned to look at me.
"I won't let my pride be crushed by that kind of man. So I will not come back on my words. I won't prove him right and neither will you."
I was stunned, was he serious ? That...I was happy. It was all pride for him but I felt protected a bit. That reminded me that he was mad at me the other morning.
"Why did you get distant the other morning...?" My voice cracked a bit, it indicated what it most likely did to me.
"What did you expect, hm ?" He frowned.
Honestly, I don't know either. Maybe I was hoping too much after all we...got closer...no ?
"What happened, happened. Alright ? You better forget about that already. Don't get the wrong idea."
His cold gaze came back on me and all I could do was nod. I bite my lip, I couldn't help but be frustrated. I don't know what I was thinking after all, we are colleague. Only.
