While the group stared at us leaving. My heart soared because he defended me. He hugged me in front of the others while taking me away. He did this without me asking.
Maybe because in the past I defended him from his friends. And now he's doing the same to me.
I leaned slightly against his coat sleeve as we walked. His calm face did not show any ripples. He defended me like he should have done that. And don't expect me to have to pay it back.
If you don't know him too well, he's like someone with a serious side that you can't get through, so you feel like you need to be careful talking to him. But from me, I feel like he's the most loyal and generous friend I've ever known. I talked to Anna once, and she said that if Alexsey was a friend who cared deeply about the people around her, I knew it was true now.
It feels like I have the honor to feel like he'll be standing next to me without me asking. And won't let Anna handle me like any other girl. But he once said love was never a priority for him.
But will he change that for me? I can be a priority for him.
"Thank you." I clasped his hand with a smile after we walked out of the meeting room.
"I'll take you home." He was just acting normal with my thanks.
He's never crossed our friend's line until now. Never asked me to have dinner with him. Never text or call if nothing is important. Flower delivery with very ordinary words. But I don't know why I knew if I asked for anything she would work on it.
Now walking with him feels comfortable without suspicion and fear. I said I wouldn't fall in love with her. But what if I can't help being flattered like this. I extended my smile closer to smelling her perfume that I liked.
"Where's Anna? Not coming home with you?" She was with Anna welcoming the guests, while I was with Andrew, I was basically replacing Eliza.
"Anna, hmm. There's business with Andrew."
"Ahh, there's business." It seems Andrew and Anna are inseparable now. A lot of things they have to solve 'together'. "The new love who is in love seems to."
"I thought so."
"Why do you seem to have a problem with that?"
He's researching my face now.
"No I don't have any problems, why should I have problems." I've given up on going after Andrew, but I still have problems, I envy them. I want my own love. I want someone for myself.
When can I miss someone again. Got someone I saw after I opened the mataki. My daydream was too far away, the arm I was holding was too warm, out of nowhere there were butterflies around me, tickling my skin with their wings, he said, this feeling of being flattered that someone is defending you is too beautiful to resist.
"What's wrong? Why are you so silent, still thinking about that word? You want to take a walk." This good friend of mine, he offered me a walk. It was as if I was a teenage boy who needed a walk to heal my heart. She's being so sweet, I didn't know an Alexsey who never put a woman in her priorities could be so sweet.
