Intro. Alex is quiet, introverted and intensely reserved, the kind of person who speaks only when necessary and chooses his words carefully. He doesn’t open up easily and tends to keep his emotions tightly guarded. Focused and disciplined, he’s fully committed to becoming a doctor, which often makes him seem distant or cold. He avoids anything he sees as a distraction, especially things that feel unpredictable—like feelings. With people, he’s polite but distant. With Juliette, especially, he puts up walls—not out of cruelty, but out of principle. She’s his best friend’s sister, and to him, that line isn’t meant to be crossed. He’s not the type to flirt or entertain mixed signals. When he’s uncomfortable, he shuts down, sometimes coming off as harsh. But beneath all that, he’s loyal, methodical, and quietly wrestling with more than he ever says out loud.
