{Walkers POV}

I hesitantly walk off Noah's front porch. Her mom is still staring at me. It's actually really scary. I sprint back to my house and go up to my room. God, that was so awkward.

I'm pretty sure my mom has been asleep this whole time. I hope she didn't realize I was gone.

I lay in the dark, thinking about Noah. I hope she's okay. Maybe I should text her. It's been like 10 minutes. She's probably still awake. But what if her mom took away her phone and then reads the text and thinks were dating or something? I wonder if she likes me. She probably doesn't. She's so pretty and sweet, and...she could definitely get someone better than me.

I sigh and grab my phone. I'm just gonna text her.

Incoming video call


I answer this time, and Noah's ceiling shows up on my screen.


(Noah = bold

Walker = italics)


"Hi"

"Helloooo"

"Isn't my ceiling so hot??"

"uh...yeah" He laughs

~ Awkward silence ~

"I tried to give a squirrel CPR once.."

"What?" He laughs again

"Yeah...it was dead...so I tried to bring it back to life with CPR and magical rocks." She says.

"Noah that's gross!"

"I didn't put my mouth on it! I just blew on it!!"

"Umm...Ok."

"Do u want to hang out tomorrow?"

"Aren't you grounded??"

"Yeah...so?"

"SO YOU'LL GET IN MORE TROUBLE"

"I honestly don't care at this point. Like, it's my life, not my mom's...I need to live it."

"You're crazy"

"I know" She grins.

"Okay, I'm gonna go to bed."

"Okay...Yeah me too." He yawns.

"Okay..."

"...love you..."

Walker freezes and stares at the screen.

"What???"

"I said I love you."

"Oh yeah...umm...yeah..I...uh...okay, goodnight."


Call ended


I end the call and stare at my phone. HoLy ShIt sHe SaId ShE lOvEs Me!! And I just hung up. I mentally facepalm. I'm so stupid!! Ugh, she probably meant as a friend. God, I'm such an idiot!





{Noah's POV}

"I said I love you."

"Oh yeah...umm...yeah..I...uh...okay, goodnight."






Call ended


I sit staring at my phone. Why'd he just hang up?! Ugh, he probably thinks I like him now! I mean, I do...But I didn't mean 'I love you' like that! Well...I did...but like...Great, I just made our entire friendship awkward.

I put my phone down next to me and close my eyes, trying to fall asleep. All of a sudden I hear a ding on my phone. I pick it up...it's a text from Walker.

Walker 😎

Goodnight


I smiled like an idiot at the text. He loves me too...
