Next destination

They reached to next destination and Gavin was more shocked than before.

Candles on the sand making the way to a table that was beautifully decorated with a flower arch. a candlelight dinner table set up it was so beautiful that Gavin didn't say anything for few minutes. Nobody has ever done something like this for him and it was a little overwhelming for him. Gavin doesn't know how to feel about all this... although he is not like a girl who will get impressed with flowers and candles this is soo beautiful that he can't deny that somewhere he feels like someone important.

Mike looked at Gavin's expressions and smiled and took Gavin's hand to lead the way to their table. Gavin just followed mike's lead being dumbfounded. as they reached the table, Mike pulled out a chair for Gavin. Gavin didn't complain this time and sat down quietly. Mike turned around and went to his seat and after settling down he looked at Gavin and smiled

"You like it?"

"Hmm …..Ah …it is good." Gavin answered.

"Only good" Mike raised his eyebrow.

"Are you treating me like a woman?" Gavin frowned and asked Mike.

Listening to Gavin's question Mike got worried that Gavin might not like it or feel uncomfortable "no Gavin I have never treated you like a woman. I know you are an amazingly handsome man and I just wanted to reflect my feelings for you in some way and do something beautiful for you .".

Gavin can see the emotion in Mike's eyes he knows that how sincere are those words. Gavin's heart skipped a beat seeing the expression on mike's face. He was feeling something for the first time that he can't explain to himself. A few days ago, Mike was this guy who acted like a pervert and filed a false complaint on his friend, and in just the last few hours Gavin had seen so many sides of Mike that he was confused now but one thing he got to know for sure was that he was not a bad guy that Gavin think he is.

Gavin was tangled in his thought when Mike touched his hand "hey are you okay? Did I do something wrong?" Mike asked in concern after seeing Gavin quiet for a moment.

Gavin frowned "i...I am ok. But I want to ask you something."

"yeah sure you can ask me anything Gavin" mike said with a sweet smile on his face.

Gavin sighed and then said, "Why do you want to go on a date with me? I surely know we haven't met before and there is no connection. I just don't understand. you don't even know if I am gay or not? so why? what do you want from me? ".

Hearing the question Mike fixed his posture and replied "firstly,I think you don't remember but we met at a charity gala a few weeks ago. You spilled a drink on my shirt. Remember?"

after mike mentioned the incident Gavin recalled the scene "oh ya I remember. it was you?"

Mike smiled "yeah it was me. Gavin, I know this must be weird for you but when I saw you the first time I felt something that I never felt before. I thought it was just infatuation and it will go away in few days but it didn't. I don't know why I am feeling this way. So I decided to see you again but I didn't even know your name. I searched all over the city for you and after a few days of searching I saw you in that café and acted like a fool or I guess like a pervert to you. But I got soo excited when I finally saw you before me. I am really sorry for how I acted. as for you being gay or not is not the point. i think if you fall for someone you just fall for them not knowing their gender, religion, or anything else. as I can't help it, I think I have fallen for you, Gavin..."

Gavin freeze and stared at Mike with wide eyes his heart was beating fast. It took him a minute to take all the information in. calmed himself down and finally he spoke "I admit, that I don't like what you did to my friend, and the way you behaved totally freaked me out. But spending time with you today I can say you are not a bad person. but this it's all your infatuation. You don't even know me how can you say you have fallen for me? that's just doesn't make sense..."

Mike looks at Gavin with a soft smile "have you ever heard of love at first sight? And what's wrong with it. I may not know you three days ago but now I know you a little bit more than before and if you give me a chance I think we can know more about each other little by little"

Gavin sighed. after hearing all the things from mike Gavin thinks that mike is just acting childish he thinks mike might be attracted to him but it's not like someone can fall in love with a person at first sight. thinking all that he took a deep breath and letting it out he said "mike you don't know me. and I don't know you. I have never been interested in a guy ever in my life. you just think you know me but you don't "

"Gavin, I know you are a good person, values time, likes punctuality, have empathy, you don't like sweet things to eat, you feel shy to cheesy comments and you are a great friend because just for your friend you agreed to go on a date with a stranger. even you have never been interested in guy ever before. i know all this just with a small time we spend with each other" Mike answered.

Gavin didn't know what to say. This was all new to him. At first, he wanted to get this over with but after spending time with mike he realised it was not that bad actually he felt comfortable being with mike that he didn't even realised when the time went by. He forgot that he wanted to leave soon in the first place. The more he listened to what Mike says the more he felt drawn to him. But he was holding back because he was trying to figure out what he should do with his feelings.

He stood up and turned to leave when heard something and he looked back it was fireworks. And it looked so beautiful that he just stood there admiring the view. Mike stood up and took Gavin's hands in his.

"Gavin can you give me just one chance. Please. Let's get to know each other. I promise I won't force you for anything but please just give just one chance." Mike pleaded.
