Chapter 12 - MAKING MOVE

9am.

Alex already waiting for Blythe inside the shop. She forgot to get Blythe's contacts; now she doesn't know how to check on her. If she's coming or noot not. She feels anxious every damn minute that comes by.

She decided to close the shop so she could be with her the whole day. She needed more patient waiting for her.

"You wanted this so you should wait for her you are too stupid for not getting her number.", Alex talking to herself.

While waiting, she decided to set up the mood and ambiance. She didn't remove the "We're CLOSE" sign on the shop's door and let the blinds down. She only open the light on the bar section; and add fairylighst around the bookshelf which Blythe's favorite place on her cafe and set up the laptop. She thought she can invite her to watch movie with her.

"I wish she wouldn't find it a little weird. . . and worst run.", Alex thought.

She brought some pizza and ice cream on her way; and beer and soda for choices of drinks.

11:00 am.

She waited outside the Café.

11:30am.

Alex can see Blythes car coming.

Blythe parks her car.

Blythe's walking towards Alex.

Alex smiles.

"He--ey", Blythe stuttered. "Did you close it already?"

"No. We don't open it just for today.", Alex said.

"Hmm? Why?", Blythe confused.

"I told Ren to take a break. And I wanna chill too. Let's go."

"Whe. ."

Blythe didn't have the chance to finish her question. She just felt Alex hand on her's; guiding her inside the Café.

"These cold hand.", Blythe thought while looking at and feeling Alex's hand.

She was lost for a moment and didn't notice they were inside. She was got amazed by the place; from her favorite café into an another world; with the dimness, the little lights coming from the fairy lights; it is so magical; it is so perfect.

She wasn't done appreciating it and with her amusement how this place turns into another safe haven when Alex walk again and taking her on her favorite spot and making her sit with all the throw pillows around her.

Alex get the pizza, ice cream and the ice cold beer and get back to her and sit closely beside her.

Alex making her tense. Blythe calming herself.

"Do you drink?", Alex said.

"Wh--at? Ahmm. ." Blythe stuttered.

"I said do you drink?," Alex said slowly and closely to her face.

Blythe got panicked and said "YEAAA.."--- even she really don't drink beer.

"Oh shoot I can't take that back, could I?", Blythe thinking to herself.

"Okay cool", Alex smiles and take a slice of pizza and put it on a plate and give it to her; open the beer and start the movie.

Blythe can feel and hear her heart beating as if it will pull outside of her chest. She was disturbed; she can't focused with the movie. She easily got distracted everytime she feel Alex hand touching her. Everytime Alex face almost touching her's when she getting pizza and the ice cream on the table beside her. Everytime she feeling the tension between them she always take a sip. She didn't notice that she almost drink three bottles of beer; she feels a little tipsy.

Alex notices Blythe. She can tell that Blythe was a little dizzy. She then hold Blythe's head, make her lay down and let her rest on her lap.

Blythe can feel Alex cold hands caressing her face; her hair; she love the coldness touching her skin and everytime Alex' hand accidentally touching her neck and her ears. She can feel Alex eyes watching her. She feels safe. She feels protected; like a little kid. She's at peace. She falls asleep.
