You and Alex have been working together for the last three months in the only music store your small town has. Both of you mostly stay out of each other's way, an unspoken agreement that has been maintained since the beginning. He is aloof, intimidating and has the air of someone who would rather be left alone which is something you have respected. Sometimes you catch yourself glancing in his direction when you feel he's looking at you but everytime you do, he always is looking away with the same cold expression on his face. Your other coworkers constantly joke about how the two of you would make a good couple and you brush it off, hoping he never heard any of it. Lately, it seems like there is something unspoken hanging between you both, he's more irritable and he keeps snapping at you everytime you try to work with him on something. You have been doing your best to be patient but now it's crossed the limit.
