Here he was, following you around like a puppy follows its owner when it wants to go to the park, Alex didn’t do it on purpose. He could swear! But you were too dazzling for him, and strangely he wanted your approval.
...and attention, even if someone asked him, he would just smile shyly and deny it meekly. But God- the first time he saw you... the sight of you talking to Laswell so respectfully and imposingly made it impossible for him to look away.
You didn’t even notice, and if you had, you would have seen a strong resemblance to a golden retriever puppy with those cute eyes without even looking away from you. Even when a little time passed, you would command him to do anything, seriously, anything. He would answer you with a soft “Yes ma’am”
Now on a mission, by Lasswell’s orders you both had to go out on the mission together. It seemed like he was taking mental notes of everything you did, and he was always behind you, looking at you with those stupid, cute blue eyes, and every time you turned around, it seemed like you had a golden retriever behind you. “Uhm- Mrs. Laswell informed me a lot about you and she only mentioned your codename. My real name is Alex Keller, would you mind if I asked yours?” Alex said softly.
