Mistakes * Jason Waud

Thirty five

I chewed on the inside of my lip while waiting for joes answer.

"You know Um Noah?" He scratches the back of his neck.

"Noah?!" I basically choke while sitting myself forward.

"Yeh, he wouldn't tell me what happened, well I mean I was there but me and a friend went in a shop and when we came back out he was storming the opposite way from Noah with bruises and cuts on each of them".

I sighed and ran my hands over my face.

I then stood up and walked to the front door, Joe following behind.

"Where are you going?" He says as I grab my jacket.

"To find Noah" I say and close the door behind me on my way out.

***

I stopped my car in front of Noah's house and turned it off.

I called him and after six rings he answers.

"Hello" his raspy voice groans down the phone

"Come outside and get in the car" I say sternly

"Ella?"

"Hurry up" I say and end the call.

I watch as he walks out with just his joggers and shoes on strolling down to my passenger side and has a jumper in his hands.

I unlock the car and he opens the door getting in the passenger.

"Whats up?" He smirks as he closed the door.

"You. One change your attitude, two put that jumper on and three we need to talk" I cross my arms.

"You can't boss me about, your not my girlfriend... well I mean unless you want to be" he smirks while saying his last few words of the sentence.

"Noah this is not why I came here!"

"So why did you come?"

"Why did you and Jason fight?"

"Boy stuff, why didn't your boyfriend tell you?"

"No"

"Why not?"

"I don't know and why aren't you telling me?"

His phone rang and I sighed as he answered.

"Hello"

"Yes"

"No, not right now"

"Okay, I'll be there soon"

He ended his phone call and slide his phone in his pocket.

"Anything else? I have to go"

"Noah we need to talk"

"Another time, tomorrow?"

"Joe would've told Jason by then"

"I will text you where" he smirks and gets out.

*the next morning*

I crawl out of bed to see Jason not here, as soon as I open the door I hear shouting from the kitchen.

"Why didn't you fucking stop her?" Jason's voice sounds like it's about to crack

"She's not my girlfriend Jason maybe you should've told her about Emily yourself and Noah wouldn't of had to!" Joe shouts back

Emily? Who's Emily?

Has he been cheating on me?

"There's nothing to tell about Emily!" Jason shouts

"Like she's going to believe that" I know Joe rolled his eyes.

I walked out the bedroom and both of their eyes landed on me. I gulped and didn't know what to do, I'm guessing they didn't either.

I pulled my phone out my pocket and decided what I was going to do is best.

Me
Hey Noah, can we meet?

Immediately my phone dinged and I looked down.

Noah
Sure, be at the coffee shop you work at in fifteen.

I twisted on my heel and headed straight for the front door and then my car.

Noah needs to tell me what's going on.
