Chapter Thirty-OneBecause of What Happened≋"Heads up.""What?" I turned around to see Ezra walk up to me and lean against the locker beside mine. He crossed his arms over his chest and gave me an amused look."Cade. He wants to ask you out on a date."I slammed my locker shut and gave Ezra a baffled look, "What the hell are you talking about?"Ezra shrugged nonchalantly, "I'm telling you what I know. He's into you and wants to ask you out."My eyes widened and eyebrows furrowed, "Shut up. You're kidding."Ezra tilted his head, a smirk resting on his face. He was too amused and finding this more funny than I was - considering I didn't find it funny at all. "Nope. He actually came up to me and asked me if I thought it was a good idea.""I'm assuming he expects you keep your mouth shut," I mumbled knowingly, narrowing my eyes at Ezra.Ezra shrugged casually, "Yup, but since when do I listen to other people?""So you're not fucking with me right now?" I asked slowly. I knew he wasn't b

Chapter Thirty-TwoRed≋"I never finished the-""Who is that?" I cut off Charlie who was in the middle of talking about some assignment he had. My eyes narrowed at a familiar face along with a new face I hadn't seen before all the way down the hallway.I was standing with Charlie, Jade, Luke, and Kai against the lockers, all of us talking and wasting time before we had to start getting to our first classes for the day."Who?" Luke asked in confusion, trying to figure out who I was referring to as he followed my line of sight. The hallways were crowded with students right now since there were still twenty minutes until classes started.Down the hall was Noah who was walking, talking, and laughing with some redhead who I had never seen before. She was stunning. Absolutely fair and perfect skin, perfectly straight but also voluminous hair that practically swayed as she walked, and the most bright blue eyes I had ever seen. She looked like she could easily be a model."Her," I exhaled, m

Chapter Thirty-ThreeFake Attitude≋"So you're pretty new here too, aren't you?" I looked up from my history textbook when I realized Amy was talking to me.Amy turned out to be in my History class along with Jade and Ezra.Ezra sat in the desk beside mine and Jade sat in the one in front of mine. She would usually turn around and work or talk to Ezra and I during class.Now that Amy was sitting in the seat beside Jade's, she found it to be a good idea to turn around and make conversation with me because we hadn't gotten much chance to talk yesterday.I forced a smile, "Yup. Haven't been here long." Please go talk to someone else."Yeah, Noah told me you're pretty new here so I wasn't the only one." I wanted to smack the friendly and darling smile off her face. Why the hell did she have to be so likeable?"I wouldn't say I'm new here, anymore." I muttered, looking away from her and back to the history textbook. I hoped she would get the memo and leave me alone.I could feel Ezra's ga

Chapter Thirty-FourBless Your Delusional Heart≋I groaned as my eyes fluttered open. I stretched out of my arms and neck, my whole body feeling sore as I had fallen asleep in my car.I was parked in front of the forest that led to the dock and lake. I must've closed my eyes for a few minutes and then dozed off.I grabbed my phone from the cup holder and opened it to see the time that read 10:23pm. I had a few missed calls and texts from Ezra and Charlie as well, along with one from Luke.I sighed as I turned the keys in the ignition but when I put the car on Reverse, it would not move. A beeping sound rang through my ears and thats when I looked to the gas meter to see that my car had absolutely no gas in it.I groaned and rested my head down on the steering wheel, not in the fucking mood for this to be happening right now.After a few minutes, I picked up my phone and dialled Ezra's number but he didn't pick up so I called Charlie."Tiffany, God. Where the hell are you? We texted y

Chapter Thirty-FiveWe Got Sidetracked≋"No, it w-"And then I was cut off by Noah swiftly leaning down to place his lips on top of mine to kiss me.I froze.For a second I froze but then I have into it and kissed him back because for some reason, although I was scared of what this would lead to or mean, I didn't want to ruin this moment.My whole body felt like it was melting like candle wax as Noah had his arms wrapped securely around my waist, holding me close to him.Noah's lips moved gently and carefully against mine, slow, like he wanted to savour every second.Our lips moved together in perfect rhythm, like they were two puzzles pieces waiting to be placed together.My hands someone landed on Noah's chest, his heart beating triumphantly and at a quicker pace than steady.My knees felt like they were going to buckle at any given second; if it weren't for Noah holding me, I would've fallen from my knees that were feeling weak like jelly.Somehow we started moving. His lips conti

Chapter Thirty-SixAgain?≋The following day, I was riveting with anxiety and anticipation.I knew Noah and I were going to have to talk about the... the kiss. It was more of a mini make-out session rather than just a kiss but you know what I mean.I hardly slept and was so anxious that I had been tapping my foot all morning.I wasn't someone who overthought things or paid so much attention to them like I am right now - constantly thinking about it and worrying about what might happen. I wasn't like that, it wasn't me which is why it's so weird for me right now because I couldn't think about anything but the kiss.Noah and I had three almost-kisses but they were left at the almost. They didn't actually happen. Those were enough to get my mind spinning in confusion but now, we had actually kissed and it was kind of perfect which was a bad thing.It made me want to kiss him again.It made me nervous to see him.It made my mind constantly drift to the thought of him.I was not naive or

Chapter Thirty-SevenPre-Trauma Tiffany≋I tried to talk to Noah later that day because I wasn't sure what he was doing.We were supposed to talk about how we kissed so we could figure out what to do and what it meant - if it even meant anything at all in the first place.When he doesn't say anything and talks to me just like he would on any other day, I assumed we would just ignore it and pretend it didn't happen which frankly, I still think is an amazing idea.Then he kisses me again out the blue like that's a normal thing to do.When I was hoping to talk to him at lunch, the boys ended up having soccer practice so I couldn't talk to him. I spent the lunch listening to Amy tell us girls Australia stories that made me want to rip my hair out because I still wanted a reason to not like her but couldn't find one.I waited outside the locker room at the end of lunch, hoping to run into Noah so I could figure out what was going through his mind when he pulled this shit.Noah walked out

Chapter Thirty-EightWant Pop?≋The following Monday, Noah greeted me with a kiss on my cheek in the morning.Luckily, I was late to class and the halls were empty so nobody saw. I didn't have a chance to yell at him because he had skipped off before I could even process what happened.At lunch, he was on the opposite end of the table and spent the whole time leaned back in his seat, looking at me with a smirk on his face. I spent the whole lunch avoiding his gaze which was difficult because I could practically feel holes being burnt into my skin like lasers.Most of the group was coming over to my place so instead, Ezra and I dipped and decided to waste time at the movies and mall and wherever else we felt like bumming around.Tuesday, about the same thing happened. I dodged his kiss by avoiding eye contact and keeping a few feet of distance between us. Ezra was sending the two of us odd looks, having picked up on the weird atmosphere around us. While Noah was busy smirking and amus
