"I was a bet"

- chapter seven -

Noah pov

After Dixie left I had went into my room my dad had walked In. "I saw that girl here who is she". "Nobody dad, can we do this later I'm tired". His dad sigh and walked out of his room. Noah thought about what he's doing and he's actually falling for Dixie whuch is bad for two reason the fucking bet and the play. He doesn't want to be in the play and he for sure wants to call off the bet since he might be falling for her

I don't know what to do maybe I should just sleep on it . But I can't it's hard because Dixie keep pooping up in my brain it's like she's haunting me. And it's getting worst by the minute.

Next day

I was walking intot he auditorium where there was our first practice after its been a week since auditioning. It seemed like Blake had an attitude the whole practice but I couldn't care less. we started practicing and it started with everyone in the cafe and nini walks in with her new boyfriend.

If I liked theater I would say it was fun but it was okay it's not something I would be exited for to do but it really isn't that bad. After our first rehearsal I was grabbing my things, I think I had been stuck on Dixie for this whole week I guess I could find new friends our see if me and Bryce are still friends or whatever until Dixie stopped me. "hey Noah I just want to say I had a lot of fun last night bye bye". I smiled and nodded and walked up to Bryce and thankfully he was alone.

"hey Bryce I just gotta ask are we at least friends or you're one of vinny pets". I asked. "nah where cool man I was actually going to tell Vinny how wrong he was but I'll think he will get the hint wanna go to the cafe". he asked. "No Vinny basically runs that place, let's go to the field!" Blake nodded and we went there, on the way.

"hey man you still doing that bet thing, I saw you talking to her not so long ago". "oh yeah, if I don't you know how Vinny is". "oh please sure that's the reason". I look at him, "what are you talking about". He ignored me and laughed, we went into the field and played football. I had stoped to drink water

I had got a call it was my father telling me to come home. "Hey Bryce I got to go home". Bryce walked up to me and dabbed me up, I then went home. "thank god ur back your mom and I have to speak with you". he said very seriously. ugh what now. "hey Noah me and you're dad had came up with an agreement, we both think that we should get a divorce". I was barley paying attention until I heard divorce. "divorce, what why I thought-". "what ever you thought you where wrong,

things aren't great with us, he slept with someone else, he doesn't care about you, never did and never ever will". my mother said to me. I shook my head, are you serious this can't be happening. "that's not true I love you son, more than my life, I just don't and never will love ur mother, let's call our marriage an arranged one".
I started tearing. "this can't be happening, whatever is going on with you to, we can fix it, you guys can love each other, please".

all they did was look at me so I stormed off and left the house once again. My life is really falling apart, Vinny took all my shine, my girl, my friends now my parents are getting a divorce, there's nothing permanent in my life, I'm not even captain of the football team what the hell.

I just decided to take a stroll around my neighborhood. I was upset I wanted to get back at Vinny for taking everything. I decided to go the the cafe I don't even care if Vinny was there with his minions.

I walked in and he was there but I don't care, I sat down and got on my phone. I felt a figure coming up to me, I thought it was Vinny but actually it was Riley. "hey Noah". I rolled my eyes. "hi Riley". she sat next to me. "I am really sorry how things ended I never wanted that, like really". "it's alright I'm over it and over you". I said getting up. She pulled me back. "I'm not over you Noah it was a mistake I'm sorry". she said.

I scoffed. "you have Vinny it's to late I already moved on to someone better". "I don't love Vinny I love you, and who that girl, what's her name Dixie?". "yea so, it shouldn't matter to you now go run along before Vinny over there catches you talking to me". I said to her. "Noah please stop I don't love Vinny I miss you please give me another chance". "I can't do that, I would never do that I like someone else how many times do I have to tell you that". "fine then I'll just get rid of her, I really do like you Noah I love you I miss you but fine". she snapped and walked off.

whatever I really don't care I don't want her I want Dixie, I will prove that. I texted Dixie

1o minutes later she came in, I stood up and walked up to hers "Hi dixie". She smiled and hugged me but I backed up cause I hate hugs. I sat back at where I was sitting.

I don't know why this is going to sound cringy but I felt so nervous around her, she's so pretty she had on a black dress, I just stared at her. "Noah ur starring". she giggled. "oh right uh your just pretty". I smiled I wanted to see her react, she covered her face, I could tell she was smiling which made me smile.

"you should smile more ur always so upset". She said to me. I shrugged my shoulders. "do you want anything to eat or drink". "Oh yea can I have a Pepsi". She said giving me her money. "what no put ur money away, I'm the one who asked, I got it". "Noah no I got it". I rolled my eyes. "dixie put ur damn money away now!". she rolled her eyes back at me putting it away.

"ur so sassy". She said to me laughing. I then got our drinks. And sat back down. "Dixie ur really pretty". "Can you stop flirting with me, it's almost as if you like me". She said. "maybe I do". she raised her eyebrows. I decided to make a move because unless she's leading me on she keeps blushing. We where in a booth but we where  sitting across from each other so I got up and sat next to her, really close. "what are you doing". She questioned. I was confident two seconds ago but now I'm not. I looked at her lips then quickly back at her eyes and then her lips was all I could look at. I started to lean in and she did to which made me happy. I kissed her she kissed back, it was a long lusting kiss. she pulled away. she was breathing hard and smiled I smiled at her as our foreheads where leaning on each other. she went in for another kiss, and I kissed back quickly, but this time it was different, we where making out for about 3 minutes she pulled away. "It hasn't even been 30 minutes and things escalated quickly". I chuckled. "Dixie, I have feelings for you, I was hoping you had those same feelings". I admitted. "oh trust me I do". she smiled. She tried hugging me. "as much as I like you, I don't do hugs". She laughed

I don't know how I feel about this chapter because I don't want to rush them but I don't want it to be a slow burn whatever give your thoughts pls.
