The Last Wave I Encountered

Chapter 4

The rest of the week flew by insanely fast. Noah hung out with my group and I and had his arm around me. Every girl was shocked how the fat girl was having the high school jock fall in love with her. Heck, I was surprised. Everything started to fall into place. I was being dragged out of my depression. I was actually becoming some what happy again. Noah though probably will never know this, nor will my friends and I don't want them to.

That Friday was my first date. I ran home from tennis, I mean ran. Then I got a shower. Once I hopped out I slipped on a summer v-neck dress and a long sleeve sweater covering my arms and I put my short hair in a sixties pin up. My mind raced all over and I was so exited about it. I finished off my look by putting on a smoky eye. It was 5:45 by the time I got done. 20 minutes before Noah shows up.

Hey

Sure. It's 843 North Pleasant.

Okay will be over in a few Mai.

Okay :)

I checked myself in the mirror one more time. I still didn't understand how I got the jock but, whatever I did, I did right. I headed into my living room and flipped on the TV there was the choice of The Voice or The Middle. I flipped it to The Voice; I fast forward to my favorite contestant, Sawyer Fredricks. He was a 15 year old that had such a unique voice, he had it in the bag to win. Ding! Ding!

I jumped. It was just the doorbell. I walked over and opened it. "Hey," Noah said giving me a hug. I hugged him right back. The cologne he was wearing smelled like angels from heaven. It was to die for. "Hey," I muttered back to him. "So shall we go?" he asked. Noah's smiled ear to ear. This made me blush and grin harder. "Yea, I think we could go," I giggled. He took my hand and walked me to his car and opened the door. I smiled getting in; he then walked around to get in the car.

"So where are we going?" I asked brushing my bangs out of my face. "I figured I would take you to a restaurant of your choice and then to the movies," he finished giving me a quick grin, " So what place?" I didn't think about it but, the first thing that popped into my head. "Um, what about the cony island that is in the mall." He looked at me and half grinned, "Okay." The rest of the drive we blabbed on about our day.

We pulled in and Noah got out and opened the door for me. "Thank you." "No problem," he said biting his lip. I giggled. We started to walk into the building."What?" Noah asked. "Nothing I said smiling. "Sure," he rolled his eyes. we walked into the cony island and got a table and sat down.

"So any games coming up Mai?" I glanced up, " um, next Saturday, Its a home game. Why?" He looked up to the menu to match my eyes. "I would like to see you play that's all. You've seen me play, thought it might be nice to see you play," He said smiling. I glanced down at the menu and then back up, he was still staring at me with his soft eyes. "What?" I giggled.

"Nothing, " he smiled, "Just staring at this beautiful girl I got blessed with to be my girlfriend." My face went bright red. I could only smile. "Thanks. I'm lucky I got you." The waiter showed up. "What would you like?" We ordered; I got a order of Fried mushrooms and Noah got onion rings. So not first date food but, we didn't care.

"So favorite book?" Noah asked taping a beat on the table."Ashley's Suicide. It's really good, even though the name sounds bad. what about you?"

"Fighting Alongside My Brothers. It's more of a gamer/action book but, you can enjoy it gamer or not though.Favorite movie?"

"Um... I would say Life and Death. What about you?"

" Hands down Maze Runner."

"It's a good movie. Favorite color"

"Green. You?"

"Blue. The light sky blue when the sun is just rising," I giggled with how childish it sounded. "It's beautiful. I'll give you that," He said smiling. I looked over and saw the waiter coming with our food. "Here ya'll go." She handed us our food."Thanks," we both said. The rest of the meal flew by so fast. I laughed at every stupid thing he did throughout the day he told me about and he laughed at my stupid things. For some reason I felt safe and like I belonged here when I was with him.

After dinner we walked through the mall side by side. We had twenty minutes to kill before the movie started. "So what movie you want to see?" Noah asked nudging me, "There is a few out I know of The Dark Night, The Fault In Our Stars and some others." I glanced at him, "I want to see The Fault In Our Stars. I know it's really a chick flick." He grinned, "Oh well, the easier I can flirt with you." I playfully whacked him. but he caught my hand in time. Noah gently lowered my hand then he intertwined his fingers in mine. "I win."

My face went bright red. This day just got a bit better. "Whatever," I rolled my eyes and giggled."Yeah sure. You love me and you know it." Noah smirked. I rolled my eyes at him again. We slowly headed to the movie theater that was right beside the mall hand in hand.

Noah and I walked in. He held the door for me to enter. "Thank you," I said smiling. He gave me his sexy wink and said, "No problem my love." The way he said it made my stomach do backflips and the butterflies go on a wild rampage. He walked with me up to the ticket both. "Two tickets for The Fault In Our Stars." The person rang up the price. "15.95 please." Noah handed her the money in exchange for the tickets.

Noah then walked over to the concession stand and got the couples special which consisted of two medium drinks and a medium popcorn. "What popcorn flavoring?" Noah asked. "Ranch or kettle corn," I replied. He found the ranch and poured a lot on to seep through. We then walked into the movies.

We sat down in the back of the theater where no ones head could block the view of the screen. During the movie Noah pulled the arm over the girls shoulder trick and I let him. I rested my head on his shoulder. Then he intertwined his fingers into mine. We stayed like that for the whole movie.

After the movie we walked back to the car. He open the door so I could get in. I kissed his cheek before getting in the car. He shut the door. I could see his face turning the color of a cherry tomato.

I turned on the radio. Dear Future Husband came on. I love the song. I began singing along with it. This made Noah laugh. In turn I started to laugh. "Your a mess," Noah said chuckling.

He pulled into my driveway and got out. he walked me to the door. I faced him and placed each of my hands in each of his. "Thank you," I said looking into his eyes. "My pleasure," Noah said.

He leaned in placing his hand on my face and met his lips with mine gently. My heart raced 500 miles an hour. I moved my hands to end up wrapping around his neck. He move his hands down to my waist. I was in a whole different world. We finally separate after awhile.

"Goodnight Mai," Noah said tucking a piece of my hair behind my ear. "Goodnight," I said and then kissed him on his cheek then I walked in. Best. Night. Ever.
