What You Are

He followed Alex into the kitchen in silence, wondering if there was a way to talk with the man.


“What are you doing?” Alex asked dryly when he found Daniel beside him, near the kitchen counter.


“I-I’m getting a glass of water,” Daniel said uncertainly, almost frightened.


Alex replied with something unintelligible and he poured himself a cup of coffee, swallowing it down in one gulp immediately after.


Daniel looked at him again for a few seconds and tried to deny any thought Alex was adorable, despite the fact that he was rude. Nonsense.


He was adorable because his honey-blond hair was standing up in every direction, his face was still half-sleepy and numb, and those glasses had left Daniel shocked and very, very pleasantly surprised. Last but not least, the deep green of his eyes.


“You wear glasses,” he said, cursing himself immediately after, when his roommate’s head snapped toward him.
