Chapter 12
We stepped through the door, taking my fingers out of his, I began to look for Alex. The only place I hadn't looked was at the apartment at the top of the stairs. I asked Jack if he could wait at the bottom of the steps for me. As I went up the stairway, I saw the turning of the doorknob and the click of the door, opening to reveal Alex with a cup of coffee.
"Good morning Elli." He said with a smile, taking a sip of coffee.
"Alex, I may I speak to you for a moment?"
"Of course." He leaned against the doorway, sipping his coffee.
How was I going to do this? I guess the best way is just to tell it to him straightforward. "I can't have dinner with you tonight."
Immediately, he pulled the coffee cup away from his mouth and swallowed the brown liquid. "Tonight's not a good night for you? We can go on Saturday, how's that?"
"Alex, I'm sorry but I can't go out with you tonight or any other night. I'm in love with someone else."
"Oh." Crestfallen, he stared at the floor.
"I'm sorry. Really I am."
Quickly changing the subject, he asked, "Who's the lucky guy?"
"Jack."
"Figures. You two are close."
"Are you mad at me?" I bent over to look into his face, to look for a trace of emotion. He lifted his head and smiled. "No. I could never be mad at you." Gently touching my face, he sighed. He looked at the bottom of the stairs and yelled, "Jack, you better take good care of her!"
"You know I will!" He yelled back.
He smiled and kissed my forehead. "Take care of yourself." He gently pushed me down the steps.
"Alex."
"Hmm?"
"Are you..really ok with this?"
"Are you happy?"
"Yes. Very much."
"Then I'm ok with it."
I turned around and wrapped my arms around Alex. "Thank you." I let go of him, and walk down the stairs, as he closes the door. Jack takes me by the hand and we walk out the door.
