'Good Night.' 

I sent the text message to Noah as I brushed my teeth at Sadie's house. Now, I haven't seen him all week. I texted him a few times to say good night to him.

I changed Into my pyjamas and laid down on the couch, staring at my phone. I wanted to ask him if I could come over to his house but I wasn't going to. I was going to wait untl he asked to see me.

About ten minutes passed and Noah still hasn't answered my texts. I put my phone under the pillow and closed my eyes, thinking about some relaxing things to help me fall asleep.

Suddenly my phone rang, making me jump a little. I immediately answered it because I knew it was Noah.

No one spoke but I heard breathing so I knew he was there.

"Are you okay. Were you at school at all this week?" I asked after a few moments of silence. Was something horrendously wrong?

"Noah?" I  called him.

"Just keep talking."  he told me. " I want to keep listening to your voice."

My heart skipped a little. So something had happened to him? What should  do to comfort him?

"Um..." I started, trying to think of something to say. Suddenly, an idea popped up in my head. "Give me a few seconds." I told him ass I got off the couch. I looked through my school bag and pulled out the Christmas card I got for Noah.

"I-"

"I miss you." he blurted out, cutting me off.

My chest tightened a little. What was wrong with his voice? It gotten quivery all of a sudden. Was he crying?

"Noah?"

I heard his breathing labored a little as he started sniffling so I brought the phone away from my ear. I rested my forehead on my hand as I took a deep breath, trying to ease the pain in my chest.

Although I wasn't ready, I brought the phone to my ear.

"Sorry..." he whimpered.

"What's wrong?" I asked, not meaning to sound so aggressive. But I couldn't take it anymore. I was worried sick about him and I couldn't bear to even hear him cry.

I waited for him to calm down a little then he spoke.

"I'm not hurting you too right?"

What?

I raised my brow, wondering where the hell he got that idea.

"No. What are you talking about?"

"I mean," he said, " I'm not toying with your feelings right?"

"Who told you that?" I asked, flabbergasted. Did he randomly get that idea or did some idiot put that idea in his head?

"Uh..." he stammered." No one. It's just that I've hurt Dustin and been toying with his feelings. I thought I was doing that to you too..." his voice got quieter and quieter as he trailed off.

I rolled my eyes. It's obvious that bastard said something ridiculous thing to Noah.

"He dumped me so I don't blame you if you want to break off our friendship-"

"Whoa wait a minute!" I almost yelled but caught myself on time. " What exactly did he say to you? What happened?"

Noah took a deep shaky breath.
