✨the next day✨
(still noah's pov)
It was morning and I woke up to a knocking from my window. I slowly opened the curtain to see who it was, only to see liam.
I open my window and he says
"The girls spent the night here and brought clothes, so they're already ready and so am I. So hurry up." He closed his window, then I closed mine. He sounded grumpy. I quickly take off my shirt throwing it onto my bed, and then rush to my closet to find a shirt. I look around in my closet and end up wearing a yellow and orange striped shirt and overalls. I felt kind of lazy so I just threw the overalls on. Adding a little car pin into it, then slipping on some socks and shoes. I brush my teeth, and then try to brush my hair, eventually just leaving it alone, then grab my backpack and rush downstairs. I quickly grab my house keys off the counter near my door and walk out, making sure to lock it.
I look around outside and see it's a very sunny day today. It's really pretty.
I walk over to Liam's porch, seeing them all sitting there. We all hop into Liam's car then drive to school.
Once we were out we all went to the cafeteria and started eating breakfast and chatting.
"So what y'all do yesterday ?" I ask, before munching into my burrito. O shizzle. I shouldn't have brought it up! Then it's gonna remind Liam of yesterday! !
"We just watched some scary movies and ate some pizza. Oh and Marci found some cookies and ate them, but they were expired so she started throwing up." We all laughed, Marci scoffing at us.
" What about you Noah? How was it without us for a little? " Liam asks. You know how it went you butt.
"Uh- I got my project halfway finished. And you know, it was-" I start to choke up on my words. Should I just tell them?
"Noah. We're not dumb, we know you and Julian were together." Mia said. WAIT WHAT.
"HOW DID Y'ALL KNOW !?" I yell, only to be looked at weirdly by some people sitting nearby.
" Liam saw and told us. " Marci said, smirking and looking at a mad faces Liam. Of course Liam told them.
"Really Liam?" I roll my eyes.
" Come on, we're friends. You shouldn't keep secrets, we're supposed to be open with each other. " It was his turn to roll his eyes.
"I know that. I do trust y'all but I wanted to keep this to myself. It's just a little crush. I never experienced being all shy and mushy about a crush until now and I want that, so can you not?" I some what yell at Liam. This is stupid. Why am I getting mad?
" Okay fine then, sorry I worry about you. But answer, why did you let him to-" Before he could finish that question and let the girls know what happened I throw my burrito at him and walked off, out the cafeteria.
While walking to my class I realised how stupid it was of me to do that and get mad. But at the same time I was still mad, I mean he didn't have to tell them! That was my business, and since he saw , he could've just let his mouth shut.
My poor burrito, and stupid cute Liam.
I storm off again mad at the thought of Liam about to spill his words out about what happened. Once I was in class i sat down and say through the lesson listening completely.
✨Time skip to art class ✨
Through the whole day I ignore Liam, Marci and Mia. I feel bad but i also feel embarrassed and mad. I walk into class to see Julian sitting in his seat, right next to mine. I smile and walk into class sitting down and saying hi to him.
"Hey Julian." I smile.
"What's up Noah?" He smirks.
" Nothing. Oh also you left this at my house. " I was slowly pulling out the bag of weed, only for my hands to be pushed down quickly by Julian.
"Dude, you don't just pull it out." He whispers.
" We could get into trouble. Just give it to me after school. Meet me behind the school, okay? " he takes his hands off mine, and I put it back in my backpack nodding.
Liam's Pov.
This is fucking dumb. Noah hasn't talked to me almost all day! Is he even going to sit with us at lunch?
Like I care.
You do care.
No I dont. Shut up.
Mia's Pov. :-*
Today has been pretty weird. Liam and Noah have something going on, I'm guessing it about this Julian dude. And Marci is just the same I guess.
And for me? Today is very stressful so far! At least I'm heading to my favorite period with my two crushes. I know, what a thot.
I sit down at my desk, the people sitting with me are Adam, Elli and Will.
Adam is my crush and so is Elli. Well I think.
And Will is Kat's boyfriend. I may not like Kat but Will is nice, he's just kind of dumb.
"Hey guys, whatcha talking about?" I look at them all.
" Vines. " Adam smiles. This dude is in love with vines, just letting you know.
"Okay I got one, try to finish it. I want a church girl that go to church." I say
" AND READ HER BIBLE! " Elli yells, we all laugh after the teacher gives her a glare.
Oops.
Back to Noah's Pov bois;-)
Art class finished quick today. I noticed Julian was flirting a lot with me. FLIRTING. I was on my way to lunch then remembered. Dang it. Would they even let me sit there?
I decide to just sit there, seeing that I have no where else to sit.
I sit down, all of them looking up at me.
"What are you doing here?" Liam looks at me harshly. I've never seen him give me that look before. Honestly, it hurt.
" I-I always sit here. " dang it, I stuttered. Now they'll know I'm nervous. Mia and Marci just look at us two, seeing how it'll turn out.
"Why don't you just sit with your boyfriend Julian?" He rolls his eyes and looks down at his phone .
"He's not my boyfriend. And I can sit here."
Before he could respond, Marci says
"Guys this is childish. Let's be big kids and get over what happened. Noah wanted to hang with Julian and not us, that's okay. Noah don't hide secrets from us, we won't judge or get mad," I nod saying a quick sorry.
" And Liam why are you so against it? " I look at him hoping he wouldn't say anything about what happened.
He looks back at me, I notice he looks hurt. Is he jealous?
No he couldn't be.
"I don't know. I'm sorry Noah." I know that isn't the reason, a little i don't know. I'm gonna ask him about it in 8th period.
Time skip to 8th period brought to you by my mom
Our eighth period teacher doesn't really pay attention to our class since she doesn't like us. So we talk a lot and only do work when another teacher walks in or checks on our class.
"Liam. You didn't give a good answer and i wanna know why you're really against me and Julian hanging out."
I already know I'm gonna regret it, well maybe. Hopefully he doesn't get all mad again.
For a while he just sits there staring at me. He's probably thinking?
"He just seems bad, I don't want you getting hurt. I've heard stuff about him. But hey, don't listen to me, you know. Do whatever the hell you want." He turns away from me and goes back to texting someone.
I sit in silence the rest of the class. What has Liam heard about him?
Time skip to after skool👀
I walk out the class as fast as I could once the bell rang and walked behind the school quickly, making sure no one saw me. Just then I felt someone put their hand in my shoulder, I turn around and it's him.
"What do you want?" I tell him.
" Aren't you gonna walk home with us? Or is Julian gonna drop you off. "
"I'm gonna walk with yall, Liam. Just wait real quick."
I watch him nod and walk away. Then I wait for Julian to come.
After a few minutes I feel someone wrap their arms around my waist and give me a hug. I jump and quickly turn around to see Julian.
"Hey there cutie." He smirks.
" H-hey. Oh here's the stuff. " I smile and hand him the weird grass.
"Thanks Noah." He puts it up. . "Hey sorry but I really got to go. My friends are waiting on me so byeee." I run to the front of the school and see all my friends waiting and chatting .
"Let's go guys. Sorry for taking long, I had to give Julian something." We make our walk to our street. Today we decide to hang out at my house.
I open up the door and let them inside, telling them I'll make some tea.
I realllyyy love tea.
I go into my kitchen making sure not to slam the door.
While making it, Liam walked in and closed the door gently.
I turn around to see him looking at me with sadness and hurt in his eyes.
"Are you good Liam?" I ask worriedly. It could be cos of this whole day. Him and me going back and forth at each other.
"I'm sorry Noah. For being a douche the whole day today. I shouldn't be mad at you just for hanging out with him. And whatever happens between y'all two is between y'all two. It's just I don't want him to hurt you or anything. Let me know if he ever does, okay?" He still has that look in his eyes, after saying all that.
"Okay I will Liam. But thank you." I give him a smile and he gives a small smile, a little blush growing across his cheeks.
He looks so cute. Before he could walk out to the living room I tug the back of his shirt a little. He turns around and looking down at me.
I really need to ask him. "Liam, why did you do that the other night?" I ask, looking down at my shoes. Red. That's nice.
It takes him a while to answer, but when I looked up at him he began.
"What do you mean?" He asked curious.
Does he seriously not remember ?!
"T-the kiss! Don't you remember?" I ask, I feel my face burning from embarrassment.
"Oh yeah. I'm sorry about that. It was all an accident Noah!" He ruffles my hair.
"If you want to be with Julian I'm okay and I'll respect it. I'm just over protective is all. So you have feelings for him right?" He asked quickly.
"I think so. I mean- it's kind of like how Mia feels. But i also like this other boy. And I'm not sure who I really like." I laugh at how stupid I must sound. He probably thinks I'm a slut. Not that I'm slut shaming. I don't do that.
"Okay I see. Anyways tea is done." He walks out the kitchen and leaves me alone to my own thoughts
And tea.
Liam's Pov
When I walk out of the kitchen I let out a sigh. He likes two people. And I like him. One being Julian and the other being some other dude that's probably way better than I am. And I knew kissing him would end badly. It wasn't on accident. I really wanted to kiss him. But I had to cover it up. I can't just tell him my feelings right on the spot when he's already crushing on two people.
That's not fair to Noah, it'll be stressful. I wouldn't want him to be stressed.
I hope everything will get better soon. As long as Noah is happy and all my friends too, I'm okay.
Just then Noah comes out with a tray full of tea cups with tea, and honey on the side.
