2:50 pm:
"Wo ai ni."
Alex glanced up from her paper work. "Hm?" she asked casually.
"Oh.." Bobby kept his eyes on the suddenly-interesting ME's report sitting in front of him. "Nothing."
3:20 pm:
"Ich liebe dich."
"Are you talking to me?"
Bobby looked up, trying to catch her eye. She kept her focus on her papers.
"Oh... No."
4:19 pm:
"Te amo."
"What?" Frustration choked her voice.
"Hm?" Bobby looked up at her furrowed brow.
"Do you have something to say to me?"
"Uh, oh...yea-- oh. No. No, I guess not," he trailed off, retreating back to his readings.
Alex squinted at the top of his head.
He smiled at the sound.
5:03 pm:
"Je t'aime."
"Bobby. For Heaven's sake! You know I don't understand what you're saying!"
He fumbled, trying to turn the page over. "I know, Eames. I know"
He looked up at her. She held her gaze as long as she could.
Then, no more.
6:52 pm:
He dropped a pack of Skittles on her desk.
"What's this?" She asked, eyeing the package warily.
He shrugged.
"Thanks," she said, a slow smile creeping up.
"Ai shitte iru yo"
Alex smiled, fully.
She understood.
