Rtc Chatfic-ish (nischa)

Chapter 52

Noel covered is eyes as his phone buzzed, squinting as it shone a bright light into his eye.

99+ notifications from Mischa<3

he turned off the screen and flipped it over.

Mischa didn't really care. noone really did.

"Noel, i need to tell you something.. well a few things." Ricky's machine read out, whilst he was sitting beside Noels bed. Ricky was allowed out for the day, he got a day out every week, but since Penny was out of town (something to do with her parents court case, he didn't know details) and his parents forgot about him, he decided to spend the day with Noel.

"yeah? Go on." Noel replied, ricky having caught his interest.

"im not gonna lie to you, i only found this out at 4am this morning and you were fast asleep so i didn't wanna wake you, but by any chance are you on a groupchat with penny, ocean, mischa et cetera?"

"...yeah?"

"oh fuck so it really is you?"

"wait are you..?"

"yeah!"

Noel smiled, sitting up and leaning over, hugging Ricky.

"Its so good to finally meet you!" Ricky's device beeped, "everyone has been so worried about you, but you've been here.. can i let them know you're okay? I won't go into detail."

"uh.. no. I'm gonna sound like a dick but i don't want Mischa to know."

"not to be rude or anything but.. why? I thought you two were like.. best friends." The mechanical voice read.

"because he's a dick."

"wow.. okay-"

"sorry.. but its true. I may or may not have had a teeny tiny crush on him and-"

"no shit sherlock!"

"what?"

"I called it!! Penny owes me £20."

"okay.. wait you bet on me having a crush on Misch?"

"No, we bet on when you'd admit it. it was so obvious, you're just lucky he's oblivious."

"im gonna ignore that and move on... anyway theres also that guy i talk about a lot? the super pretty one who i met in taco bell and we hang out like every day... anyway thats uh.. that was Mischa."

"oh cool."

"...Not cool. He lied to me for months about who he is!"

"he was scared."

"what?"

"you heard me. i mean why else would he spend literal months texting you, talking to you, involving himself in your life for no reason."

noel gave him a blank look, a billion thoughts behind his empty gaze.

the boy started, "well you've lost me.. what does this have to do with fear?"

"He likes you, Noel! He's scared you'd reject him!"

Noel panicked slightly. If Mischa liked him then maybe the had a chance..? oh god this isn't good. now Mischa was gonna hate him forever.

"....fuck."

"fuck indeed."
