Chapter 26

Noah’s POV

“I don’t like to see you sleeping around all the time. It hurts and yes I do get jealous but you know what? I have the right to because…” Rebecca stopped. What was she about to say? She is definitely keeping something from me.

“Why do you care?” I asked and crossed my arms on my chest waiting for her to answer me. I want to know what she was going to say. Her had eyes went wide like she had seen a ghost or something.

“Um…I don’t know. Just leave me alone.” She said and walked out of the room. I just stood there watching her leave. She is angry with me; she never storms out like this.

I ran a hand through my hair roughly. I really have no right to be possessive about her she is my friend and girlfriend but I can’t help it. When I entered the room looking for her and saw Will’s hands on her I just lost it. I wanted to beat the crap out of him for touching her. No one else can kiss her like that except me. Whoa, she is not yours I reminded myself. Why does she being with someone else bother me so much?

I sighed and went downstairs. I should apologize; I don’t like her being mad at me. The party was going on in full swing. I stood near the stairs scanning the room to find her but she was nowhere to be seen. Where did she go? I spotted Will and Sarah in a corner chatting normally. Will’s nose was swollen and red. Shit, that must hurt. I should apologize but not right now. She must be upstairs in my room.

I opened the door of my room and saw Rebecca sitting on the bed curled up in a ball. I walked towards her and she looked up. Her eyes were bloodshot and her nose red at the tip, she has been crying. I flopped on the bed next to her as soon as I sat down she got up and was about to leave. I got up and grabbed her hand making her stop.

“I am sorry. Have you been crying?” I asked putting a finger under her chin making her look up at me. Yep, she definitely was crying that to because of me. I am such a jerk, I don’t like see her sad and now she has been crying because of me.

She shook her head. “No, why would I cry?” she said. I always see through her lies like she sees through mine. I don’t understand why we bother lying to each other.

“You are a terrible liar.” I said and she smiled but then looked away again. “I am sorry. I will never do anything like again at least will try not to. I know Will has always had a soft spot for you that are why. Anyways I won’t do it again.” I said.

It will be difficult not to but I won’t. I don’t like her to be upset because of me. We have only this summer then we will leave for college. She still hasn’t finalized any college. I have been trying to make her consider Oregon. We could live together or something. “It’s ok but why did you do that?” she asked bringing me back to our discussion.

“I don’t know. I guess I snapped.” I replied. I was insanely jealous seeing her with someone else, my blood was boiling. If I admit this she will think I am crazy. She is so beautiful; she never fails to surprise me. It’s hard not to be close to her all the time.

“You snapped? That’s your reason?” she said looking at me shocked. She looks so cute when she gets angry; she narrows her eyes every time she gets angry.

“Well, yeah what do you want me to say?” I asked. She looked like she was thinking so I just stood there watching her.

She shrugged. “I don’t know.” She mumbled softly and looked at me. She was biting her lower lip and her hands were on her hips. She is so perfect. No can be this perfect right?

“I am tired and I am going to sleep in the guest room tonight. I am still mad at you.” She said pointing her finger at me.

I groaned. No way is that happening. I love seeing her fall asleep in my arms. “Come on, I said I am sorry.” I whined.

She laughed and shook her head. “I have to get up early tomorrow to get ready. Maybe next time.” She said smiling and grabbed her bag.

I wrapped my arms around her waist from behind and rested my chin on her shoulder. She fits me so perfectly and it feels so right. She turned around and put her hands around my neck. She is so beautiful from inside and outside. I had a sudden urge to kiss her. I leaned in and kissed her lips softly and she responded immediately. I can’t believe I am kissing her again, I never want to stop.

If we are friends why do I feel this way? There is definitely something more here. She tangled her hands in my hair pulling me closer to her. I don’t ever want to stay away from her. I don’t what it is but I want her to be with me all the time, I need her like I need air to breathe. But honestly I don’t deserve her, I am lucky to be having even this time with her.

I laid her down on the bed moving on top of her. I kissed her neck biting her gently making her wiggle under me. I know what this was leading to but I didn’t want to stop. I looked into her eyes just needing some reassurance. “You sure?” I asked.

She has never done this before; I could tell she was nervous. It’s her first time I want to make it as special as possible. I want her to remember this night forever. She nodded and pulled my face to hers kissing me fiercely. God, I love her so much. Shit, do I?

Rebecca’s POV

I woke up in the morning with Noah laying practically on me. His face was buried in the crook of my neck, his hand on my stomach and his leg casually slung over mine pinning me to the bed. I moved a little so that I could see his face, his hand on my waist pulled me closer to him. For a boy who’s never spent a night with a girl, he sure is cuddly.

I looked at his face; he looked like an angel, so handsome and perfect. I moved out of his hold and placed a pillow in my place. It took me a minute to realize I was not wearing any clothes. Noah’s t-shirt from last night was near so I picked it up and slipped it on. I always wanted my first time to be special and last night was just it.

He was so loving and gentle, the way he looked at me it was just out of this world. I went the guest bedroom to use the shower and get ready so I won’t disturb Noah. We went to sleep pretty late last night, around 3 a.m. I took a long hot shower and washed my hair doing all this while grinning from ear to ear.

I had already kept my dress, shoes, make up and everything. I needed time for make-up because I didn’t do it always. I slipped on my light blue strapless dress. The dress was pretty, it was Noah’s choice. He said blue looked best on me. It clung to my body perfectly but was not too tight. It was plain and had frills which started around my waist and went on just below my knees.

I pulled out my blue stilettos and looked at them in awe. We have to leave in an hour. I wonder if Noah is up yet. I think I will go and check on him. I wore him out last night. I blushed at that thought and made my way to his room. He was still in the bed just the way I had left him. I sat next to him and ran my hand through his messy hair.

“Noah, wake up.” I said softly still running my hand through his hair. I hope he doesn’t freak out or things don’t change between us. I can’t be without him.

He opened his eyes slowly and looked at the pillow confused before looking up at me. “I thought you ditched me.” He mumbled sleepily.

I laughed and he sat up leaning on the headboard. “We have to leave in an hour. Get ready.” I said. I looked into his blue eyes and got trapped there.

He took my hand and kissed the back of my hand. “Ok, are you done?” He asked looking at me.

I shook my head. “Nope still have to blow dry my hair and do make up.” I said and tried to get up but he didn’t let go my hands.

“You look beautiful, you don’t need make-up.” He said intertwining our fingers. I blushed and smiled at him. He is just so sweet.

“A little won’t harm. Now get up or we are going to be late.” I said. He moved forward and kissed me softly making my head spin.

He got out of the bed and I looked away when I realized he was naked. I blushed again and left the room as quickly as possible. He didn’t freak out and even kissed me looks like I am in luck. I dried my hair and added few curls just to look different than usual. I applied some light pick lip-gloss and slipped into my beautiful stilettos.

Noah knocked on my door and I opened it. He looked extremely handsome in his tux. He looked over me slowly with wide eyes. He likes the dress; it’s his choice after all. “Wow, you look wow.” He said.

I smiled. “Thanks. You look good too.” I said and stepped out of the room. He brought his hand in front and was holding a box.

He bought a corsage for me. He is just too sweet. He slipped it on and took my hand intertwine our fingers. He opened the car door for me and we drove to the wedding venue in silence. The wedding was supposed to be on last weekend but was pushed ahead due to some last minute problems and was pushed to this weekend.

Noah’s grip on the steering was wheel was too tight and his jaw was set hard. He is either uncomfortable or angry but I think he is uncomfortable, it’s his mom’s wedding after all. “You okay?” I asked.

We reached and he opened the door for me. He took my hand and we started walking inside, people were still arriving. The vows were starting after another 20-30 minutes, I think. “It’s just I am going to meet Peter for the first time. I don’t know what to say, I am just nervous that’s all.” He finally replied.

“You don’t like him much, do you?” I asked. I mean I understand that even if not directly it was somewhat his fault when Noah’s mom left.

He nodded and smiled sheepishly. “I always hold him kind off responsible for my mom leaving me. I had decided to hate him all my life.” He admitted.

I chuckled and we sat down on the first table where we were placed. “Maybe you would hate him less. Someone is coming here.” I said and looked over his shoulder. A man in his fifties wearing a tux was walking towards us.

The man reached us and Noah stood up. He was shorter than Noah but had warm look on his face. “Noah, I am Peter.” He said raising his hand forward.

Noah shook it and smiled. “How did you recognize me?” Noah asked curiously. He has no idea how similar he and his mom look.

Peter laughed. “You look like Olivia; it was not at all a problem.” He said smiling at Noah and then at me. I just smiled and turned away so they could talk.

I was playing on my mobile when Noah tapped my shoulder and helped me up. “This is Rebecca, she is my date today.” He said smiling and pulling me closer to his side.

I was totally not expecting to be introduced or even asked about today. “It’s nice to meet to you.” I said politely.

“You too. She is keeper, don’t let her go.” Peter said to Noah chuckling lightly. I am keeper? That’s the first time someone said that to me. I smiled at Peter.

“Not planning to.” Noah replied. They shook hands again and he left. We sat back on the chairs and I was waiting for Noah to say something.

“So?” I asked.

“It was not as bad as I thought. He is alright.” Noah said smiling and then shrugging. He liked Peter. Noah’s alright meant good.

The wows were said and the ceremony was over, even the cake was cut. Some people were having lunch and somewhere hanging out or dancing. This was the backyard of Peter’s house and it was amazing. It was big enough to accommodate 200 people at once comfortably. They got it decorated really well. It has the wedding feel to it and it’s so romantic. Olivia was dancing with Peter and they were both smiling happily at each other.

I couldn’t help but be jealous of them. The look they are sharing that’s all I ever wanted but it isn’t as easy as I had pictured. Nothing else matters other than someone loving you so much and wanting to spend the rest of the life with you. I looked up and saw Noah dancing with his mom’s mother. He looked at me and smiled. Yup, nothing matters apart from this boy.

The song ended and Noah walked towards me. “May I?” he asked raising a hand for me to take and smiling. I nodded and took his hand. He led me through the crowded dance floor and pulled me closer to him. His hands were on my waist and my arms around his neck. He was looking into my eyes smiling warmly.

He is such a good dancer. I am yet to find a flaw in him except him sleeping around off course. I looked into his eyes which I never get tired of doing. He bent down and kissed my lips so softly making sparks and tingles shoot up through my body. He pulled away too soon for my liking but I was aware that is mom is right here.

Noah put his forehead to mine looking into my eyes. “Thank you.” He whispered softly and pulled me even closer to him.

“What for?” I asked curiously. What have I done? He is so sweet I never want this moment to end. I want to be with him all the time.

He shrugged. “If it wasn’t for you I would have never talked to my mom. I missed her and I am glad you made me do this. Dad is never around but mom moving back feels nice. She is only family I have apart from dad obviously. So, thank you for making me do this.” He said.

I smiled. “Your welcome.” I said. I laid my head on his chest and he rested his chin on the top of my head. We were swaying to the music. I am so happy I could burst. I wish I could keep him with me forever but I will be always be there when he needs me. Just two months then we go our separate ways. I better cherish the time I have left with him.

“ Your staying with me tonight right?” Noah asked all of a sudden. I frowned I didn’t know about this, what is he saying.

“I have to go home if I don’t my parents will surely kick me out.” I said. He chuckled but then again was lost in his thoughts.

“I could stay over at yours.” He said. I laughed and looked at him but he looked totally serious. Is he crazy?

I shook my head. “My parents are cool but not so much. Now this would be just stupid.” I said frowning. I don’t want them to hate him.

“They don’t have to know. I could sneak into your room from the window.” He said grinning at me wickedly.

“You would do that?” I asked shocked. Why would he go through so much trouble for me? I just don’t understand what his logic behind this is.

“As long as I get to be with you.” He kissed me for couple of seconds and pulled away “And do this. It’s worth all the trouble.” He said.

I could hear the sincerity in his words and honestly in his eyes. He is so amazing and so sweet. The next couple of months I am going to make them as memorable as I can. I don’t know if I will ever get with him like this especially if he doesn’t feel the same way. If he says yes, I would forget everything and go with him anywhere he wants. I laid my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes enjoying being close to him.
