Valerie:

"Babyyyy please, we have to discuss this" I complain while Noah is eating his pancakes. It's 10 PM but he managed to convince the waitress to bring pancakes even at night. He is known in this diner

He stops eating and then looks at me with a playful grin "Discuss what?" he says drifting from the subject again like he has been the whole night.

I get it, he doesn't want us to to be apart, but i mean, we can make it work through phone calls and visits every month., going to the best university in the world is worth it.

"I want you to go. If you don't i won't be able to live with myself" I tell him crossing my arms in front of my chest, and he sighs.

"Monkey, you don't have to feel guilty about anything, I made the decision, i wasn't even going to tell you about it" I roll my eyes cuz yeah, if it wasn't for the recruiter, i wouldn't be having this conversation right now

"Noah, I don't like your decision, you'll regret it in a few years, I want you to be happy" I say softly trying to not get him pissed like last time.

"But i am happy!" he exclaims and offers me a sweet big smile. he holds my hand over the table and rubs his thumb against my knuckles

"You know what i mean" I say rolling my eyes playfully, and he takes a deep breath

"I'm on stanford, one of the best universities in the country, I'm on a fraternity that's gonna get me so many contacts for my future jobs, I'm the king of my swimming team, I love this weather. I live with my 6 best friends, my parents are only a 2 hour long drive away from me and ..." He brings my hand up to his lips and kisses it "I have you, that's the most important of them all" he smiles a little to me and i sigh feeling defeated.

"But...."

"No buts monkey. I know what i want" he replies immediately and i bite my lip

"But if i let you stay for me, then i'm gonna be like sebastian" I pouted and Noah looked at me frowning

"How so?" he asks raising an eyebrow and crossing his arms over the table

"Well, he was the reason why i was hesitating to come here, and i know if i had listened to him, by now i would've regret it so bad" I bite my lip shaking my head

"Yeah, but he gave you an ultimatum..." he replied coolly and i pursed my lips "You are not forcing me or even asking me to stay" he chuckles bitterly and shakes his head "I am the one wanting to stay and you are basically packing my bags and sending me off to boston" He sighed sad

"Is not that i want you gone" I reply immediately and he shakes his head again

"Well V, it seems like it, looks like you are using it as an excuse to get rid of me" He whispers and his smile is now a frown while he drinks from the straw in his milkshake

Why the hell is he calling me V, he never does that, He is so complicated and i feel so bad that he just won't accept the scholarship.

"Baby, i am gonna miss you like hell" i take his hand and squeeze it a little "But we can make it work, i know we can" I smile at him and he sighs again

"i'm not going, i don't want to, and it's fine, we'll be fine, i don't see why do we have to keep talking about it" he clearly sounds annoyed, but i can't just let it go

"but it is har--" i can barely say when I'm cut off by his words

"Valerie, stop, i am not changing my mind" He looks at me dead serious and i roll my eyes

"Fine, do whatever you want Noah, SORRY FOR CARING ABOUT YOU" i yell and i stand up from the table walking out of the diner, into the parking lot, only to lean outside his car, because i don't even have a ride home. I'm there hugging myself and my jacket trying to stay warm on the damn cold weather.

Several minutes later Noah comes outside, he didn't come after me, he took his time to finish his pancakes and milkshake.

"It's freezing out here, you should've stayed inside" He only says before unlocking his car and i get inside quickly wanting to feel some kind of warmth.

He gets inside too and turns on the heater, which i'm thankful for. but he starts driving and we don't say a word the whole ride back to my place. Once we arrive, he parks and looks at me for awhile

"Why can't you just be happy that i'm going to stay?" He asks sighing and i look down

"Because I'm not a good enough for anyone to sacrifice than much for me" I mumble and he holds my face between his hands

"you're not good enough?" he frowns "Valerie, you are amazing, you are the best thing that has happened to me, You are..." He bites his lips in thought as if he's not sure about what he'll say, but he takes a deep breath and continues "You are the love of my life, that's why i don't care about rejecting harvard, i am sure everything will be fine as long as i stay by your side. "

I quickly dry the tear that slid off my eye, i don't know what i did to get a guy like him fall so hard for me. But i'm thankful for it. I am so in love with him too that i can't even imagine myself with anyone else, ever.

"o..okay" I finally give up and bite my lip while Noah smiles that i finally accepted and leaned down to peck my lips

"Thank you" He says and i pout still not very happy that he's not going.

I get out of his car and he does the same, we walk towards the dorm building hugging each other. We walk inside my dorm and he walks to my bed collapsing in it, as always

"Noah?" I say when i close the door and he lifts himself in his elbows and looks at me with a sweet smile

"hm?" he hums in response

"You are the love of my life too" I say softly, remembering i didn't say anything in return when he said all those beautiful things to me.

His smile grows wider and he opens his arms "C'mere" he says patting on the spot next to him on the bed and i giggle walking to him and snuggling into him

"I love you Valerie" he whispers kissing my temple, i look up at him and press my lips to his softly

"I love you too, Noah" I reply and smile at him sweetly and then i rest my head on his chest closing my eyes feeling completely safe and whole in his arms
