Chapter 108: He is my boyfriend

The next morning Alice got ready to leave for work when she met Noah outside her door. She wasn’t surprised because now she was used to him waiting for her every morning.

"Ready," he asked cheerfully and saw her nod, "Ready."

They both stepped into the elevator and reached down to the last floor. Stepping out of the building, they headed towards the car and hopped in.

Noah wanted to take Alice somewhere before they both went to their work. He soon stopped his car his front of the restaurant, and they both stepped out.

"Let us fill out stomach first before we go to work," he said, holding her hand as they walked inside the lavishing place.

Noah had already made the reservation, and as soon as they stepped in, the manager came forwards and took them to their table.

"Have you been here before? Everyone seems to know you," Alice asked in confusion when she saw everyone who worked here greet Noah respectfully.

Noah didn’t answer her and pulled out a chair for her to sit on when the manager came forward and said," I hope you enjoy the food, boss."

Alice’s eyes widened in surprise, and she saw Noah nod his head, and the man walked away from there.

"Boss? Did I hear it right? Don’t tell me you own this place" Alice couldn’t believe what she heard and asked to confirm her doubt.

Noah nodded his head and heard her gasp." No doubt they were intimidated by your presence here" Alice shook off her surprised look and looked at the lavishing restaurant.

This man was very rich, she thought and watched Noah lean forward, resting his hand on the table, and ask," You seem to like the place" his lips curled up into a smile when he watched her scan the site like an excited child.

"I like the aesthetic décor of your place," she said with a smile and watched him staring at her.

Alice suddenly got cautious, and she cleared her throat," Why are you staring at me" she asked, looking down.

She had started to feel intimidated by him. Not that she didn’t like it, but sometimes she thought it hard to keep her eyes off him and got caught by him.

"You should keep smiling, Alice. It suits you," he said without holding back as he watched her look at him." Huh"

Alice blushed at his remark and nodded her head. Soon the staff came with the breakfast and served them. It was all as per Alice’s liking.

Noah made sure she wouldn’t skip eating anything as he, as personally as the chief, paid attention to his words.

Alice ate everything she had served, and they finished the food in no time.

"It’s too much for breakfast" Alice burped silently and covered her mouth when she saw Noah watch her." Sorry," she said and wiped her lips.

Noah was amazed by her cuteness which came out very rarely. "It’s okay," he said with a smile, and they got up, leaving the place.

Reaching out, Alice was about to step into the car when someone called her," Alice."

She turned, and her eyes widened when she saw Avera along with Dylan. Brushing off her uneasiness Alice put on a smile.

"I wasn’t expecting to meet you," she said and walked toward her.

Noah walked toward Alice, joining her. She was Dylan’s fiancé, and they would soon get married. Noah was aware of that, so it didn’t take time for him to know who the girl was.

Alice felt awkward meeting them all of a sudden. She could feel Dylan’s burning gaze towards her, making her more uncomfortable.

"You just vanished after that day" Avera’s words broke her thought, and Alice looked at her in surprise.

"Oh, that day, I was in a little bit of a hurry," Alice lied. She couldn’t let her see that their presence was bothering her.

"That’s okay," she said, and her eyes went to the man who stood next to her.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Avera asked in excitement.

Alice was baffled by her words, and her eyes met with Dylan, who had turned darker.

Noah was quietly observing them and what caught his attention was how Dylan not for once averted his eyes from Alice, leaving him in question.

He remembered him meeting her that day in her studio. Alice was just as uncomfortable as she was now. Why would she get bothered by him when he was just a client she worked with?

Noah was pondering his thoughts when he heard Alice say," Yes, he is my boyfriend" her words made him swiftly look at her, and he saw her smile.

Alice turned and looked at him and held his hand before looking back at them." Sorry, we have to take out leave, it is already late, and my boyfriend is a very busy man," saying Alice smiled at Avera, and they stepped into the car, driving from there.

Avera smiled as she felt happy for her and turned to see Dylan and said," Don’t they look good" and saw his face turn cold.

Dylan was pissed at Alice that he didn’t listen to Avera’s words and walked away, leaving her behind.

On the other hand, Avera was surprised by his ignorance. This was the second time she had seen him walk away without answering, which upset her. She looked at his retreating back and quietly followed him.

****

Inside the car, Noah was grinning from ear to ear. Alice just called him her boyfriend, which filled his heart with joy.

On the other hand, Alice didn’t dare to look at him. She knew he was smiling, enough for her to remember the words she said before leaving the restaurant.

"So I am your boyfriend, huh" He looked at her, still smiling, and held her hand on her lap.

Alice shut her eyes and bit her lips. She was so embarrassed that she didn’t think twice before saying it.

Noah was enjoying how she ignored him because he knew whatever she said wasn’t an excuse to walk from there. He could feel her words’ sincerity, and how she held his hand assured him that she was ready to accept him.

Alice suddenly felt giddy and didn’t dare to look at him. Busy pondering on her emotions, suddenly she felt the car stop, and she turned her head, looking at Noah in surprise.

She wanted to ask him why he stopped the car, but before she could open her mouth, Noah unlocked his seatbelt and leaned closer to her, pulling her by her neck and capturing her lips.

Alice was caught off guard when she felt him sucking her lips, and she closed her eyes, giving in. The kiss didn’t last long before Noah pulled back and rested his forehead on her.

"I know whatever you said back there wasn’t a lie. I could feel you meant every word" Noah brushed the tip of their nose.

"I want to hear from you again," he said, whispering the words and leaning down, resting his head on her shoulder.

Alice found him so adorable. His words were so clear, and his actions were so submissive. He was begging her to speak again and make him happy.

Alice lifted her hand and brushed his back before she hugged him and saw him raise his head. His eyes were full of hope as he waited for her to speak.

Taking a deep breath, Alice finally spoke," I want to be your girlfriend, Noah, and I meant it back there, and I even mean it now."

Alice had already decided when she had asked him to sleep with her that night. She wanted to give herself a chance and see where this relationship went.

She couldn’t go on feeling scared of getting hurt. She wanted to live again and inhale the fresh breeze of life, and that life would come from Noah because he was the only source who would help her fight her demons.

Noah couldn’t believe what he heard, and he asked her again," Say it again" his eyes widened, and he asked her to speak.

"You heard me right, Noah. I want to be your girlfriend and give us a chance to know each other better," she said, and his face bloomed like sunrise, and without wasting a second, he hugged her tightly.

Alice smiled, and she hugged him back. She could feel his emotions running high. She was happy. After all, she finally accepted her feeling for her and didn’t let herself doubt it.

Noah pulled back and cupped her face before he kissed her. He kept pecking her and smiled against her lips, not believing that now they were officially a couple.

Alice smiled, watching him get excited, and she cupped his face making him look at her.

"We are getting late for work, Noah" her words finally calmed his enthusiasm, and he nodded, still smiling like a child. Before he sat back on his seat, he gave her a peck again and started the engine driving away from there.
