Enemies to lovers

10

You were in shocked.

"What?!" you asked in pure shock, not knowing your enemy, Noah the Noah who bullied you for having divorced parents would actually get into a fight with your now ex boyfriend.

"I'm so sorry y/n. I shouldn't have done that. It's just I was so pissed at him cheating on you, especially with your best friend" he said with anger in his eyes.

You were speechless, not knowing what to say to that.

"I was stuck in traffic while I was on the way to come to your house to wish you a happy birthday. Then I got a notification on instagram. It was a picture of your friends hanging out together at then bar and-"

He stopped talking and looked me in the eyes. His eyes were filled with sadness and anger. I wondered why.

"And what?" you said curious on what he's gonna say next.

"And- and I was zooming into the picture to look for you. I wanted to see your smile to make sure your friends are there with you so you won't feel lonely especially when it's your birthday"

He cares about me? You thought to yourself, speechless and warmed by his words.

"I suddenly can across your boyfriend kissing your best friend on the lips in the background" he said with anger in his voice.

Hearing that still made your heart ache.

"When the light finally turned green I went to the bar instead of coming to your house. Once I've arrived at the bar, I immediately spotted your boyfriend and punched him in the face" Noah said looking down fidgeting with his fingers.

You hugged him ever so tightly. He was shocked by your actions but still hugged back. You started crying again hearing his words while he comforted you.

"It's alright love, no need to cry over some stupid man who doesn't deserve you" you said hugging you back and patting your back.

His voice was so calm and gentle that you could fall asleep in his embrace. You felt safe with him. He stroked your hair gently placing his head on top of yours still comforting you not even caring that you've stained his shirt wet with your tears.

"There there it's fine love, I'm here, always here" he said hugging you even tighter. But why did he care about it? Normally he would be bullying me for this matter.
