Chapter 14 - Too Good to be True (2) (2/2)

Seeing Alex's embarrassed look, April chuckled.

”Alright, come in. I'll make you some coffee. Looks like you needed it.” April walked back inside, not waiting for him to answer. Alex had his own keys to come in, just in case of emergency.

April went to the kitchen and started brewing coffee. Though she never drink any, she likes the smell and the process of making it. Her mind was fully focus on the task at hand, when Alex came in.

April was humming as she brew, the smell of coffee permeated the air. It was strong and pleasant. Alex smiled, he could see that April was currently having fun. He didn't wanna disturb her, so he quietly sat down and just observed her. His mind was starting to calm down as he saw her dance around the kitchen.

Her hand was gentle as she brew the coffee. She was like making love with the coffee, Passion can be seen in her eyes and her smile. His mind couldn't help but remember their shared night, that one was full of passion. He blushed and coughed hard. He shouldn't be thinking about this now.

”It's almost done, hold a sec.” April looked at Alex and smiled. She then poured the fresh brewed coffee on a mug and set it in front of Alex.

”Here you go. Careful, its hot.” April winked at him and turned around to clean the mess she made.

Alex pursed his lips, his heart was beating rapidly at that wink. Is she trying to seduce him at this hour? No, that can't be. He knew that April wasn't that kind of person. He blew on the coffee and took a sip.

His eyes went wide, this coffee was amazing. He had never tasted a coffee like this before!

”April! This is good. Thanks!” Alex appreciated a good coffee. He sighed, He thinks that he had just fallen in love with April's coffee.

April chuckled, ”Your welcome”. Even though she doesn't know much about Alex, she did knew about him being a coffeeholic. You could say that it was one of the reasons why she learned how to brew coffee, instead of using an automatic coffee machine. Her father Ted and Colm was her test subjects.

Alex drink his coffee in silence while looking at April's back. Her h.i.p.s moves smoothly as she cleaned the counter tops. He almost choke at the thought. He was coughing again.

April giggled, ”Drink slowly, I made more than 1 cup.” Alex must have like her coffee that much, he was literally chugging it down even though it was hot and bitter. Alex drinks his coffee black, something she would never do. She likes sweet stuff.

Alex blushed, it was a good thing that she misunderstood. April got done cleaning and poured more on his cup.

”So, will you tell me now? what are doing here past midnight?” April crossed her arms together, as she started her interrogation.

Alex smiled shyly. He didn't really have a good reason, he sighed. He decided to be honest, since April was being kind to him. Especially at this late hour.

”Francesca and I fought, so I flew back to England. I didn't wanna stay there in Italy for the night. When I got back, I decided to go driving to get some fresh air. Next thing I knew, I was parked here. Sorry.” Alex sipped his coffee. He felt at ease confiding this to April. She didn't seems to be a judgemental person, especially on what she went through.

April frowned, so it was because of his wife. Her heart couldn't help but feel a slight disappointment. April sighed as she looked at Alex.
