Dixie cleared her throat, causing them to both realize the situation they where in. Noah quickly let go of dixies hand, and they both leaned away from each other. "i'm just kidding dixie, i don't actually want you to leave" noah said breaking their silence. "are you sure? you seem like you don't want me here..."

of course dixie knew he was joking, but she wanted to see how he would react to what she said. She wasn't going to actually leave, but he didn't need to know that...

"dixie i am very sure that i want you here, i promise you" he said genuinely, and gave her a smile. She was just messing with him, but he was completely sure of his answer. It had a deeper meaning behind it, but he was hoping she wouldn't see that and would just brush it off as a friendly reassurance. He didn't want her to know how he felt, not yet at least.

He didn't know it but she felt the same way, but wasn't able to admit it. Honestly she hadn't even admitted it to herself, let alone him.

"well then i guess i'll stay" dixie sighed sarcastically. "piss off" noah said rolling his eyes, he had finally starting to catch on to her obvious sarcasm.

"you are so annoying, can we just go i can't sit in this car with you any longer"

"actually sweetheart, our reservation isn't until 5:30, and currently it's 4:45 so we still have a while to go"

"1. i am not your sweetheart timothy 2. no i didn't forget your middle name and 3. what fucking reservation"

"1.i'm offended that you are using my middle name 2. i still remember yours jane and
3. don't get to excited its not a date reservation, it just a reservation for dinner at one of my favorite places around here" Noah said mocking dixies tone from before

"oh" Dixie responded quietly. There was an obvious change in her mood, but Noah couldn't figure out why, and honestly neither could Dixie. Was she actually hurt by the fact that he said it wasn't a date?

"wait did i say something wrong?" noah asked worryingly, he was alarmed by her sudden change and thought it was because of him... and he wasn't necessarily wrong either

"n-no i just got lost in my own thoughts for a second sorry" she answered laughing it off

"okay weirdo" he joked

"so what do you wanna do while we wait?" Dixie asked cluelessly

"wanna make out?" Noah responded vaguely, and fairly calm considering what he had just said *reference to James video lol*

"it's a no for me. But you'll always have the memories" Dixie responded patting his shoulder

"yes of course i hold those memories very close to my heart" he responded clutching his heart sarcastically

"3 years later and your still an asshole, what was 17 year old me thinking" she said shaking her head

"clearly the same thing 21 year old you is thinking" he smirked

Dixie looked at him dumb founded, shocked by his boldness. He was being very straight forward. "are you high?" she asked him, very seriously "no, now come on let's go" he said cheerfully turning the car off and getting out seconds later.

Noah was feeling confident in himself. He didn't really know what came over him causing him to act and speak so freely, but he liked it. He liked that he felt comfortable enough to act the way he was around dixie, she made him feel comfortable and secure with himself. He knew she wouldn't judge him and he loved her for that.
