70 Going Back

K slouched on the couch as he watched Alice work on her computer. Alice had converted her hotel room into a mini office for the past seven days as she helped him handle the hospital and everyone else. She had arranged tours for everyone, once I.M had been out of danger while organizing the logistics for the new show with apparent ease. And as he had watched her in action, these days, he realized that he had fallen even deeper for her. The first time together, they had become friends and he had yearned to be more but in a distant future. Then they met again, and his previous feelings for her intensified making him realize that he was willing to wait foe her as long as it took but he only wanted her. But this time, he had fallen for her so hard that waiting seemed like torture. He heard her say something and let her voice wash over him though he did not register a single word.
