Run Away(USUK)

Chapter 24

My life has been so wonderful lately, everything was perfect. Francis was happily working in the casino, Alfred was now helping out at the bar and the poker games, and Matthew was happily living in Germany with his husband.
Today was a busy day of work, especially right now since it was 10:00pm. Men and women were dancing, singing, drinking, and playing in the casino. It was amazing how many people can bond just over a simple drink and a game of luck.
"Let go of me you creep!" A Hungarian woman yelled at a short man with black hair, he seemed shy and innocent, "let go of my arm!"
"Sorry, I don't mean to scare you. I just want to know where the washrooms are." The man spoke, he sounded Japanese but maybe I was wrong. His brown eyes look at me briefly as I watch then he looks back at the woman, "never mind, I will talk to the bartender." He smiled, bowed, and walked toward me. I watch as the Hungarian storms off to her table where a rich man was sitting, he had glasses and a small mole on his chin.
I look at the Asian man in front of me, "hello, sir, how may I help you?" I ask.
"Where are the washrooms?" He asks me politely. I show him the way and he bows before leaving.
I give a woman her drink and clean a cup that was just finished as I look around the bar for Alfred or Francis. I see Francis at a game table surrounded by people, he was laughing and joking with them. I couldn't seem to see the American anywhere, maybe he was in the loo? No, he couldn't be he would tell me first like he usually does for some reason. He wasn't anywhere, "Hey!" I jumped and held my heart, panting lightly.
"Bloody hell, Alfred. Don't scare me like that." I tell him in slight anger. I feel him wrap his arms around my waist and his body goes against mine, I sigh and roll my eyes, "Alfred, what are you doing?" I ask curiously.
"Just chilling here, with my boyfriend." He smiles against the back of my neck and my face goes red.
"What do you mean, boyfriend?" I ask nervously. Was this his way of asking me to be his boyfriend or was he with someone else?
"Oh, yeah, guess we aren't technically dating now are we?" He giggled lightly after speaking, "well, what's been taking you so long?"
I turn around to face him, he moves back a step or two, my arms were crossed, "what are you suggesting?" I ask him with an eyebrow raised.
"Well I'm technically the woman in the relationship so you should ask me out." He was smiling widely, I could tell he was trying to hide that he was blushing.
"Oh really?" I smirk, teasing him.
"Well, yeah." His smile disappears and he quickly starts looking sad, "I mean, unless you don't want to be with me and I'm just your sex buddy. That's okay too I guess... I just thought you'd want to-"
"Alfred, that's preposterous, of course I want to be with you I just-" he cuts me off with a big kiss and I could hear the people behind us whispering, I push him away lightly, I could feel my face heating up as the American smiles.
"What's wrong?" Alfred teased.
"I'm working." I tell him in slight anger before continuing to give people their drinks.
