- Indi & Alejandro -

"Indi!" Alejandro calls out as he walks in my apartment, and I turn my head to look at him.

"I forgot we were doing something today." I say as I set my pencil down in my workbook as he comes over to me, putting his hands on my shoulders.

"Is now a bad time?" He questions as I shake my head.

"No, it's fine, I just forgot I had to study today." I say as he begins rubbing my shoulders.

"Same test still?" He asks quietly as I nod, picking up my pencil again. "When even is it? You've been studying for ages."

"It's at the end of next month, but my parents are on me about it so I can't do bad." I say as he wraps his arms around me, resting his chin on my shoulder as he looks down at my workbook.

"You should take a break. You're studying all day, every day." He whispers as I hum, quickly finishing up what I was working on when he came in.

When I finish it I put a tab on the page so I can go back and I close the book, before I spin around in the chair. "What do you want to do?" I question as I look at up him.

"I can always come back later, I don't want to keep you from studying, especially if you have pressure on you." He says quietly as I shake my head.

"I need to study, but I really want to spend time with you." I say as I reach my hands out and he takes them as he leans down, kissing the back of one of my hands.

"We can go to the café and you can work on it and I can just watch game footage and take notes. Do you want to do that?" He suggests as I smile.

"Yes." I murmur as I wrap my arms around him in a hug and he kisses my cheek as he rubs my back.

I pull away from the hug and I grab my backpack, putting in my workbook and a few other things I may end up needing and we walk out of my apartment down to his car. The café is where we had our first 'date' and lately we've been coming here more frequently, even if it's just to grab a coffee.

In a way, it's our place now.

We've just been here too many times for it to be a coincidence, we both know the meaning this café holds on us. It's important.

When we get there we find a booth and I pull out my workbook and some flash cards, and he grabs out his computer and a notebook. I ended up just ordering coffee for now, but if we're here until later I'll definitely be getting food.

I begin working again and every once in awhile my eyes will drift to him, and he is fully immersed in the game and I can't help but smile. He's focused on something he's really passionate about and it's really cute.

When I move on to the next page I feel my phone buzz and I look at it.
