Alex phone vibrates again. He doesn’t look at it. After taking a bath and sleeping for five hours when he got home from their endorsement rounds, he started playing with his PS5. He wanted to drown out his thoughts with the unfolding story of the character in his video game. But if he’s being honest, he still can’t stop thinking about his dream, and how badly he wanted everything to be real.
The phone vibrates again…and again and again.
This pattern of messages and calls could only be one person. Alex answers the call with palms sweating. He clears his already dry throat before saying, “What do you want?”
“Alex, can you help me? I need you to pick me up at my place,” Ash says, frantic.
Confused, Alex asks, “I though you’re going on a date? Why do I have to pick you up? Where’s your car? Or your stupid Alpha bot going to pick you up”
“Dude, my car battery died! If I don’t leave now, I won’t make it to the resto in time. And he is not my Alpha, he is just my date”
‘Yes Beacuse I am your Alpha but you don't want to accept it' Alex think to himself and he can’t believe Ash seriously asking him to bring Alex to his stupid date!’ Alex rolls his eyes.
“Please?”
Ash pleads again, “please?”
“Fine! Just give me 10 minutes, I’ll just change. I’m just dropping you off, right?”
“Can you at least wear something nice? Don’t come wearing shorts and a sleeveless shirt.”
“Yeah, yeah. I might as well enjoy the night on my own, and eat somewhere nice. Give me money though. That’s how you’re paying for my topnotch chauffeur services. My dinner.”
After an long hour Alex arrives in front of Ash condo amd ring doorbells, after minutes Ash came out. The latter gets in his car and says sulkily, “You’re late!”
“Well, you told me to wear something nice. It would have been ten minutes if I just wore my usual,” Alex argues.
“Go, go, go!” Ash motions Alex to drive.
“You owe me big time! You better be ready to feed me something expensive.” Alex start the car aggressively and steers the car back to the street.
He is angry and frustrated at same time but he can't do anything.
It's Ash choice to choose accept their bond. If Ash want to ignore their destiny then who is Alex to stop him.
No one...
“Enjoy your date!” Alex says in an almost sarcastic tone as Ash gets out of the passenger side of the car.Ash pauses and turns to Alex, “Alex, can you just go in there with me? It’s been a long time since I went on a blind date and I’m really nervous. And you know I am really preety. What I will do if someone try to kidnape?” Ash asked with wide eyes, he really try hard to act innocent.“What are you 12?!” Alex replies in an annoyed tone. Even as an omega Alex is sure Ash can kick anyone ass who try to touch him unwillingly.“No but I am omega so can you please? Come on, you can have all the sushi you want. Just sit close to our table so that you can drag me out of there when things become really awkward.”“You’re really going to walk out from your date? Unbelievable! What do you want me to say?” 
Ash POV:-He's really very handsome. His long lashes fluttering and those pink kissable lips slightly puckering every time he exhales as he snores loudly, make him even more adorable when he sleeps. Even he is big bad grumpy Alpha for other's but for me, he is my adorable panda whom I love more than anyone.Even more than myself.I lay down next to him and continue to watch him in his slumber. He looks very peaceful. It seems like it's the only time that he could relax and let go of all the thoughts that seem to be troubling his mind nowadays. I wonder what they are."Tell me what's on your mind. I hope you notice how much I'm missing you right now. We don't get to spend as much time as we did before. Why is that?" I whisper quietly as I brush off strands of hair that have fallen on his face."I know you can also feel it Alex. I know you know we are ma
For as long as Alex can remember, Ash has always been his best friend since he came to college.There are a few constant things in Alex life: his family, this town he's grown up in, and Louis.He had his other friends, of course, but Ash had always been and still was the person that Alex was closest to. Maybe it was due to the fact that they live next to each other, and that, since the first night they'd talked, when he and Ash shared a conversation on their conjoining roofs, they instantly hit off, and a friendship developed. Or maybe it was that Louis was always so cheeky, almost the opposite of Alex, but it complimented Harry's slow and thoughtful way of life perfectly. Either way, it just kind of happened.Twenty-three year old Alex is desperately trying to work out one of his many math problems on his homework when, out of the corner of his eye, a bright light catches his attention. He turns his head, looking out th
The university bell rings, and Alex lets out a relieved sigh."All right, pencils down, everyone!" The teacher calls, announcing the end of the chemistry exam. Alex loves chemistry, but honestly his knowledge is actually quite limited. Even though Ash know about chemistry a lot and is pretty master in it, and often tries to help Alex with his studying, Alex can't seem to memorise things. Ash is a good teacher, but he is also very good-looking. And it's quite distracting."I smashed it!" Seb exclaims cheerfully as he and Alex exit the classroom."Good for you," replies Alex with a smile. "I'm glad this day is over. I'm exhausted.""Me too!" seb nods. "Oh, by the way, are you still coming tomorrow, to practice?""Of course!"See, the town Alex lives in is very small. Probably under 2,000 inhabitants. Everyone knows each other, and they're like a big happy famil
After Alex brushes his teeth, he makes his way to his bedroom, turning off the ceiling light and opting instead for his bedside lamp. He glances at the window and sees no Ash waiting for him outside. He chews on his lip and lies down on his bed, deciding to read a book while he waits for Ash.His mind instantly goes back to the bar incident (as Seb likes to call it) and wonders if his tiny (big) crush on Ash is blinding his thoughts and that Ash didn't mean anything by his pointing finger, or if maybe...He doesn't know. Like, surely Ash did not mean to invite Alex, because he and Alex are just best friends, so it's not like Ash is obliged to invite him...Even though they always do everything together, and they've always gone to the festival together...but this is different.But... Alex wants to go to the party with Ash.The sudden realisation hits him. Fuck, he wants to tell Ash everything. Tell him about his little crus
"So you asked him!?" Seb asks for the tenth time on their way to their HQ after school. "You actually asked him!?"Alex groans, rolling his eyes, but the thought of last night still brings a smile to his face. "Yes, Seb. I did."Seb cackles loudly, clapping him on the back (for the third time). "I am proud of you, son."Alex shakes his head, chuckling. It's Thursday and Ash team, including Seb of course, are doing their last practice session before their match, on Sunday. It's not just some random match. It's the results of hard work and lots of training sessions, lots of different matches and pools, during the whole year, that got them to the finale.Their HQ consists of a big courtyard behind an abandoned manufacturing plant that used to be a small factory. No one uses it besides Ash team, Dream, because other teams have their own HQ, and everyone knows how to respect grounds.
The last day of university(at least, of this week, summer break being in one week) goes very slowly. Alex doesn't know if it's because it's the weekend soon, or if it's because he is very excited for the party tonight. It must be that, he's always been excited about that. But along with excitement, Alex is also feeling...nervous? Yes, he's nervous. Nervous about Ash, and their future slow dance. They'd never even danced together. Well, they did, but mostly when they were a bit tipsy. They never had a slow dance together.So Alexander spends the rest of his last class biting his nails, very on edge and feeling apprehensive, yet eager, to be at the party.~He doesn't know what to wear tonight. It's not a fancy party, just something festive celebrated at the centre of the city, with everyone they know. He knows he ought to dress casual, but he wants to impress Ash. They agreed on meeting at seven o'clock, so that everyone
They're already breathless and Alex limbs are shaking. In fact, his whole body is shaking with laughter because Seb and Ash just fell on the ground while they were doing a battle dance and it was honestly the most hilarious thing Alex had ever seen. His eyes are wet, and he realizes that he's actually crying with laughter. He cannot stop laughing. He takes a deep breath, his giggles dying down, and realizes that he's thirsty. He starts making his way toward a caravan, going for a cool drink.He wipes away his tears while he orders a coca-cola (because it's only half past ten, and his mother is still around somewhere anyway) and goes to sit at a table now empty, except for a few people and rest of dinner, dirty plates and spilled drinks on the furniture.He observes his friends dancing on the dance floor, and spots some other friends from school, including one girl he sits next to in science, Em. She waves at him, and he waves back, beaming a
