Our Secret

Chapter 6

Erwin's POV

I woke up tired this morning, not surprised at that. It's already 12:47 so I decided to take my break now and go to Starbucks to wait for Flowerchild_447. I need to find his real name. I grabbed my wallet and phone walking out making sure to lock it. I walked to the elevator and pressed the button and waited for a few seconds before stepping on and went down.

I got into my car debating whether to walk or drive. Since it was only 2 blocks away. I decided to walk since it was a nice day. I walked down the crowed sidewalk, think how this might go. Would he like me, would he hate me. Right now I'm sounding like a little girl.
I sighed an seen my destination  and walked a bit faster just in case he's there already. I walked in and went to the back where we said we were going to sit. He wasn't there. I checked the time to see it was 1:03. I sat and waited for a few minutes before I heard a voice.
"Mr. Smith is that you?"
I looked up to the familiar voice to see Armin. I smiled and replied to him.
" Yes Armin, what are you doing here aren't you suppose to be in class? "

"Yeah, but I'm meeting someone here to talked to them." He stated as he smiled a little.
" Oh well they can't keep you waiting forever. " I laughed a little while he giggles.
"Well we did agree to meet here at 1, but I guess he's just running late." He reassured me. I started to think about what he said and who he was meeting. No it can't be him, he's my co-worker.
"Hey Armin who is it that you are meeting here?" I asked to be sure.
"Someone I met online that goes by Smith_916." He said. My breath hitched. So it was him all along. It was quiet for a few seconds before I got up.
"Armin...I can't believe this, I'm sorry" I apologize as I looked at him. Seeing he was confused.
" What are you sorry for Mr.Smi-" he stopped mid sentence realizing the situation. We stood there, for a moment. next thing you knew, he ran. And I ran after him.

Armin's POV

It was him. All that time it was my boss. This can't be true. But now it all made sense. I looked up at him before I ran. I ran out to the busy streets running back to the apartment. I was crying, and apologizing to who ever I hit into. I turned a corner before I felt a hand grabbed my hand. I was about to scream until I realized it was Erwin.

He pulled me into a hug and kissed my hair. I cried into his shirt and held onto him. We stood there for a few minutes until I stopped crying. I felt him pick me up a carry me. I didn't know where we were going but I wanted to get off the sidewalk.
"Were going to talk, ok Armin." He said softly as he walked backed into Starbucks. "Ok" was my answer
