“Well with two votes tonight’s loser is-“ Chris began, causing Noah to freeze.

“Noah. its time to leave!” Chris finished.

The name rung throughout the room, Chris tossing Noah the parachute. About to throw him off the plane. Getting him eliminated.

Noah was simply at a loss as to how he had missed it. It should have been obvious but, he had been blind. Blind and stupid. Noah saw Alejandro walking up to him.

“I must apologize..” Alejandro started, standing up to meet him.

His arms were outstretched, like he was a villain finally getting to explain his master plan . There was no like about it, that was what he was. After the first kiss with him and Noah, it was just a taunt the entire time. It wasn't real..

“You were a threat to me Noah…too smart…too strong.” Alejandro said, stepping closer to him as his voice got lower. Noah hated that he still felt something, a small flutter where his worry and panic didn’t reach.

Noah had been blind the entire time.. Noah knew that he had already lost. Noah knew the reason now. Why Alejandro had never stopped flirting with him. It was to mess with his head.. Alejandro looked at him again.

“I knew you wouldn’t mess up on your own..and I knew I needed some way to eliminate you without it damaging the team, so I waited..I waited until the events lined up perfectly.” Alejandro said, eyes gleaming.
