It's been two months.

He had explained to you that he couldn't walk you to the music room today either since football practice was going on. You shrugged looking the other way. "It's fine by me, I can have my peace." 

Alfred pouts poking your cheek. "Aw come on don't be so mean, (Y/N). I promise to treat you to a McFlurry after kay? Still friends? We good?"

You roll your eyes smiling giving in unable to resist when he gave the puppy dog eyes. "Okay okay, go on." Somehow he broke through your walls this past month getting you to call him a friend.

Rather he wouldn't shut up until you said yes to his friendship proposal.

To the music room with you it smelled of paper, and ink. Perhaps someone was printing up a fresh music sheet. 

You didn't hesitate to keep up the usual routine of playing a bit of the piano, before switching to one of the books within the bag. It was the best part. The kiss at the end.

Call you a sucker for romance, but it was something that looked so blissfully perfect. "I don't want anything like this," you comment with a bit of bitter laughter. 

It was tucked away as the speaker for your phone was pulled out. A new song you found was plugged in as you sat atop the piano looking out the window pressing play. 

I've been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spiderman's control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I don't see myself upon that list  

But she said, where'd you wanna go?

How much you wanna risk?

I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss  

You stare out the window oblivious to the one person watching from the doorway having been careful to close it quietly. He was hypmotized by your melodus voice that drew him in, he wishes you'd only let him hear always.

It's what drew him to you the first day he laid eyes on you.

Then it was your personality and fire for music.

And when you mentioned loving Marvel movies well he was sold.

Unable to help himself he chimes in singing with you.

(Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo)
(Doo-doo-doo) 

Surprised you turn around to see Alfred making his way over as you continued to sing as the song went along.

She said where you wanna go?

How much you wanna risk?

I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
(I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts.)

Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss

Just something I can turn to
(Just something I can turn to)

Somebody I can kiss
(Somebody I can kiss)

I want something just like this  

Finished you were resting your forehead against Alfred's as the lingering note fades from the air, his oceanic eyes were staring into your (E/C) ones with something akin to love in them. 

Without another word his free hand nestled itself on your nape pulling you in fully to rest your lips against his. He's wanted to taste your lips ever since the first moment he saw them form beautiful notes.

From the feel of it you weren't pulling away and neither was he. 

As lips part eventually you sit up staring completely flustered at the American quarterback. "W-what are--.." Alfred places a finger over your lips to stop the ruining of the moment, and pulls you into an embrace watching for his strength which has rumored to be inhuman.

"Can I be your person to turn to? I don't even mind being your somebody to kiss." He asked so innocently you couldn't help but laugh softly. "Hey! I'm being honest here!" He laughed trying to hold it back.

You pull away pecking his cheek. "I wouldn't mind it."

============

That night you spent the night at Alfred's place off campus finger laced and cuddled up staring into one anothers eyes, pressing sweet kisses along each others eyes, cheek, and lips. 

You wished to pass the rest of your time at this place with him. 

He held you close as if he was afraid you'd vanish any second from his grasp. As you found yourself slipping into slumber he hummed your new favorite song as his fingers run through your hair.

How much would you wish to risk?

You'd risk is all for this moment and more.
