Chapter 19 Going on a date?

Layla recalled bugging him to go on a blind date when they were in campus. Most of the girls had a crush on him but he wasn't interested in dating and kept denying so it came as a shock when he suddenly wanted to go on one. After denying for a while, Layla ended up concluding that Way was probably gay and not into girls. She eyed him for a while trying to buy his story.

"No,that's not what I mean," she continued still eyeing him curiously.

"What do you mean then?"

"I've always introduced you to girls but you were never interested in any of them that's why it all came as a shock to me,"

"They weren't my type, just do it," he concluded.

"Fine, I'm sorry Mr. not my type," she mocked him strucking her tongue out.

"I'll set a time tomorrow for you to meet her, I have one of my college friends who has been eyeing you for a while,"

"Do that," he replied as he walked away.

"We have our off day tomorrow right?" Layla asked as she stopped him in his tracks.

"Yeah, I'll be free from three in the afternoon," Way replied as he turned to face Layla.

"Fine, that can work too, I'll give you a call," Layla said as she watched Way walk away.

Next afternoon,

"Hey, I've sent you the location, don't forget to buy her flowers and dress nicely," Layla spoke excitedly on the phone.

"Yeah, you already said that," Way sighed for the upteenth time.

"Good luck,go get hooked,"

"Just shut up," Way rolled his eyes before hanging up the call.

Immediately he was done preparing, he hailed a cab and then headed to the location. After twenty minutes, he arrived. He stood in front of the café shop. It was famous and popular in the area. Their coffee was affordable and good. He stared at the bunch of red roses and couldn't help but sigh heavily.

"Let's do this," he mumbled softly as he opened the door.

Way walked into the café but as soon as he got in, he realized something was amiss. Not something but everything, he looked around at what seemed like the café but it was nothing close to it.

"Where am I?" He couldn't help but mumble softly still holding onto the bouquet of roses that he had purchased earlier on.

"Going on a date?" He suddenly heard a masculine and familiar voice. He was confused for a moment as he looked around at what seemed like an office.

"Wait, that voice it's so familiar I know that voice," he mumbled at no one in particular.

After a few seconds it finally hit him. It had been a week since he had seen Aidan.

"It's been just a month did you already forget about me?" Aidan spoke again.

Way turned to the voice and immediately spotted Aidan standing next to the window glass staring out at the view.

"A month?" He asked. Ohh, right time here works differently. He suddenly remembered the last time he was with Aidan.

"Yeah, were you going on a date?" Aidan finally turned around glancing at the bouquet of roses. It had been a month since he last saw Way and truth be told, he kind of missed him. He stared at his outfit, he looked very handsome and charming. His hair styled and tied into a cute porny tail. Way always had his hair messy and long but today, he had given it all for the date with the help of Layla and Wave.

His cologne was strong and it's fragrance reached Aidan. Aidan suddenly felt a tinge of pain, it was just a month and he was already going on a date? He felt so betrayed, jealous and angry. He clenched his fists as his face darkened suddenly.

"Are you okay?" Way couldn't help but ask seeing his glare and angry gaze. Aidan was usually silent and distant but at that moment, Way felt that something wasn't quite right.

Aidan silently glared at him as he thought of how shabby Way always looked when he was with him. Not once had he ever seen Way dress himself up when they were together but here he was looking so handsome. He wanted to hide and lock him away it was a new and unfamiliar feeling for him. He didn't want anyone to see and admire him. He yearned for him, every inch of him. But how could he tell him that? They weren't a thing yet, they were practically just strangers as of now.

"Leave, Get out," he suddenly yelled unable to control his desires.

"Why? What's wrong? What did I do?" Way asked worriedly. He had never seen Aidan that angry before. Even when he refused to tell him the truth, he wasn't angry it basically he didn't show him any emotions so why was he like that? He was confused. Did something change when I was away that month? He couldn't help but ask himself.

"Just leave,get out didn't you here me? Can't you understand?" Aidan's gaze darkened as he angrily spoke.

Way threw the bouquet of roses on the floor before stomping out angrily unsure of why he felt heart by Aidan's actions.

As soon as he had left the room, Aidan picked up his phone and then called his assistant.

"Yes chairman?" Mark walked in a few seconds later.

"Take him home," he said after thinking for a while. It was at that moment, he realized he didn't even know his name.

Mark didn't wait for any further explanations before walking out. Mark walked out and then met Way walking out of the building.

He walked towards him and then tapped his shoulder lightly.

"I'm sorry I don't know your name, I'm the chairman's personal assistant you can call me Mark. The chairman told me to drive you home," Mark explained himself.

"Way," he replied.

"Nice to meet you Mr. Way," Mark said.

"Just call me Way I'm not your boss," he replied.

"I'm sorry but I can't do that,"

"Fine, whatever," Way couldn't be bothered to argue back, he was already mad and annoyed after Aidan had kicked him out of the office.

"I'll drive you home if you don't mind,"

"Fine, then I'll trouble you it's not like I have anywhere to go," Way whined silently.

"This way," Mark bowed slightly as he led Way out.
