Alyx was trembling as he leaned closer to you. He wanted to kiss you. The mere thought of it made his heart race and the palms of his hand sweaty. But he couldn't do it. He pulled away last minute. "S-sorry..." He mumbled.

You are his first love. Meaning he's never had any dating experience whatsoever. Alyx was just a guy who spent most of his life reading comics, playing video games, and collecting figures. You know, the usual geeky stuff.

Lately, he's been trying to initiate the kiss. Holding hands still makes him feel like he's about to faint but it's the best feeling in the world. But he's just so shy.

Alyx just didn't get it— other couples he's observed seemed to have it so easy... Kissing and cuddling seems so normal.
