We finally reach the venue and take off my seatbelt was about to open the door but Alex stops me
" Wait Leona!""What's wrong?"
" Well wouldn't be very gentlemen of me if I don't open the door for you" he says and I chuckle
"Okay Alex." I say and he gets off the car and opens the door for me and pulls out his hand in front of me. I smile and slid my hand in his and he holds it giving it a light squeeze.
I get off the car and look around as nervousness starts getting over me.....Breathe ..calm down...
The last time I was here was with Noah, never since then I've attended it.
" Let's go" Alex says walking ahead and I tug his hand making him look at me
" What's wrong?" He asks and I bite my lip nervously.
He sighs and lifts his hand upto my lower lip gently removing it with his thumb.
" Don't do that... what's wrong Leona, are you nervous?" He asks me gently looking right into my eyes with concern and all I could do is nod
" You'll be fine...I'm here...do you want to wait here for a moment?" He asks
I take a deep breathGo in! Come on face it...
" No...I'm fine...let's go" I say and he smiles and links arms with me and we go in.
I see a bunch of people walking around and talking.
Not that bad huh...
I spot Viv with Kabir talking to people
" Alex, Viv and Kabir" I say pointing at them and he nods before walking towards them." Vivi!" I say and she looks at me waving
" You guys are here" she says smiling and Alex returns her the smile
" Kabir you look like a human for once!!" I say hugging him and he chuckles
" Yeah and you look like a little ant" he says laughing and I smack him playfully
" Thankyou Alex." He says to Alex and Alex looks at him confused
" What for?"
" For convincing Leona to come here tonight" he says and Alex smiles in realisation
" Oh.. pleasures all mine" he says and Kabir smiles
" I'm going to crash the eating stall..." I say walking away
" Oh god this girl..." I hear Kabir mutter but I keep walking towards the food stall.
I go and see all kinds of dishes and mouth starts watering.
What the fuck??!! You telling me I missed this much free food all these years??!!!"
Damn...
I pick up the chicken wings and start eating them.Oh boy...this is heaven...
I feel a tap on my shoulder and I turn around and freeze when I see him..Noah
I wipe my mouth with a tissue and start to walk away from him but he grabs my wrist spining me around to face him
" Hey Le-"" What do you want Noah?" I say sternly and he chuckles a bit
" Are you going to be like that Leo?" He calls me by nickname he used to call me back then making me wince.
" Don't call me that." I say and he nods
