Noah's pov
Another month had passed. Jack and I have been great, we've continued to grow closer and I've just loved being with him. Seeing the cast of Stranger Things brought old friendships back. Caleb and I have hung out more. We lost contact over the years, but he was always close to Finn so we never fully stopped speaking but losing Finn almost meant losing him too. I knew they were still mates and I guess that pulled me back from hanging out with him but it's been great. Life has been great.
Obviously, seeing Finn last month was hard. I thought about our conversation that day a lot, I thought about him a lot. I always felt guilty too. I had Jack and all I do is think of Finn and it's not fair on him. Jack obviously didn't know this though. We were becoming more serious too, we had been together for 3 months now and even though that wasn't necessarily a long time we did have conversations about our future together. The small things, like where we'd live together but something always felt off. Maybe it was because I just expected to spend my life with Finn but plans change and I need to forget him.
Caleb's birthday was coming up soon. Jack and I were invited to a 'small' party he was having. Sadie and Gaten were going too, and my guess was that Finn would be too. Jack wants to go so that meant me too. A large beeping filled the room pulling me out of my thoughts. I heard a small groan come from beside me. Jack had to go to work.
"How long have you been awake?" He asked quietly his morning voice being strong. I looked over at him and he smiled down at me leaning in for a kiss. I pulled back laughing,
"Ew morning breath." He gave me a small glare before putting his hand on my cheek forcing our lips to touch.
"You look so cute No," He whispered as he pulled away not breaking eye contact. This caused me to blush, he did this every time I stayed over and I always had the same reaction.
"Do you have to go to work?" I pouted. Jack was a screen writer and had just took up a new job so he was working a lot recently. He chuckled at me before giving me one final kiss before he got up.
"Will you be here when I get back?" He asked peaking around the corner as he left the bedroom.
"Probably, don't have any plans for today." I yawned shrugging at him. Like I said, I spend a lot of time over at his place, he even got me a key to his apartment because I was here so much.
"Mmk, I was thinking we could go out for dinner tonight? I just really want to tell you something." He said giving me a small nervous smile. Oh? I nodded my head and we said our goodbyes before he finally left the apartment. I wonder what he wanted to say.
I decided to get out bed finally at 11am. I had nothing to do so I collapsed on Jack's sofa and began scrolling through my phone on random apps like Tiktok and Instagram. I sat up staring at the screen biting my lip. Would you like to unblock Finnwolfhard? I quickly tapped yes and immediately turned off my phone. Was unblocking him a step forward? In my head it was, I'd have to do it eventually anyway.
I slowly picked up my phone and began looking through his Instagram. He barely posts nowadays. Surprisingly not many posts of him and Millie either. The last time he posted was a month ago, the night after Sadie's party. It was a video of him playing the guitar singing quietly but loud enough for us to hear the lyrics. The song was sad, it was like he was venting, letting everything out. My heart felt tight...was it about me? There was no caption to the song either and the comments were filled with fans questioning if it was about Millie. Millie. I barely even saw them together at the party and when they were...they weren't very couplely. Maybe they did break up and the song was actually about her, not me. I sighed shutting my phone off and putting on the TV. That was enough screen time for today.
At 7pm Jack came through the door with an exhausted look on his face. We made eye contact and his face immediately lit up.
"You still wanna go get food?" I asked not wanting him to go out if he was tired. He took off his jacket and hung it up before turning to me,
"I'm sorry, do you mind if we just stay in?" He apologized walking over to give me a kiss.
"That's more than okay, do you want me to cook us something?" I asked before kissing him. He immediately kissed back putting his hands on my waist before pulling away.
"I want to cook for youuu." He joking pouted staring down at me. I smiled before kissing his cheek walking away throwing myself back on the couch.
"Chop chop." I clapped jokingly only to get a glare from him.
About an hour later we had finished the food and began putting plates away. Jack was behind me, he seemed nervous.
"Jacky are you okay?" I turned concerned about my boyfriend then remembered that he wanted to tell me something. Shit was he going to break up with me, was this like a final dinner or something?? He stepped closer to me putting his hands on my face looking me in the eyes. His lips brushing against mine, our foreheads touching.
"I love you Noah."
A/N: Whatttt me posting twice in one month? No twice in one year? WOAH.
