	Alex smirked at the waiter as he left and Karishma leaned into him. He blushed as she called him out on the pet name, but simply shrugged. He looked up at Gabe to judge his reaction and gave a small smile hoping the guard wasn't upset. His jaw was set firm, but he didn't look displeased. [color=00bfff][b]"I wouldn't call myself buff, but thanks,"[/b][/color] he smiled, not sure where this boldness was coming from. He wasn't going to complain though. He flushed when she pressed her lips to his cheek, not expecting it in the slightest. The waiter came back with a forced smile and Alex just grinned at him as he thumbed circles into Karishma's hip. As the man walked away Alex removed his hand to pour some milk and sugar into his coffee, while he wasn't the biggest fan of unflavored coffee, he had wanted to piss the waiter off and get what Karishma had recommended him.

	She started doing a little dance in her seat and Alex smiled fondly at her, it was adorable. He watched a little wide eyed as she dumped sugar packet after sugar packet into her coffee,[color=00bfff][b]"Want some coffee with your sugar there?"[/b][/color] After stirring his coffee though he used his right hand to sip at it and snaked his left hand back around her waist, subconsciously thumbing soothing circles on her hip again. [color=00bfff][b]"Sound good to me, I work the rest of this week until one, so anytime after that is okay with me. Let me get your number,"[/b][/color] he said pulling his phone out of his pocket with the hand not currently wrapped around her waist. [color=00bfff][b]"So, if you don't mind my asking, why are you with her all the time? She secretly famous? Or not so secretly and I'm just an oblivious fool?"[/b][/color] he asked while looking at the burly man in front of him. He thought it rude to ignore the man at the table with them, he wanted to be polite.
