Noahs Perspective
3rd person

" I can't be, what you need. "

. . ★ . .

Noah hasn't left his room since he found out about Gwen and Cody. Staying cuddled in his bed, his eyes puffy and his cheeks red from days of tears. What was the point of going to school if you're just gonna see someone you love, knowing they love someone else. It was all too difficult to bring himself to get up from his bed.
Noah's group chat always checked up him, it was good knowing someone cared but he was too tired to respond. He was too tired for anything. You must be thinking, 'Oh how pathetic of him. It isn't even that bad," But no. Everyone has different feelings right? I bet even you felt so useless and forgotten over something so little. But, your feelings are valid, the most valid ever, and so are Noah's. He has every right to feel like a piece of shit.
Think about it, Cody had gotten with Gwen only a couple days after he ranted and cried to him... so it was hard to not think that Cody thought he was weird. His feelings all based around his past experiences, just like a normal persons would.
But for now, everything was turning. Noah didn't understand why he deserved any of this. He thought it was all gonna be good but it just... changes. It happens all the time, huh? You think its going good, but it will always change. It will always turn around. Always.

Lets just hope it all gets better, right?

very short chapter i know, but this was just a simple view of how noah has been doing. The next actual chapter will be Codys pov. But, i wanna say one thing..

No matter what anyone says to you, no matter how anyone makes you feel, your feelings and complaints are valid. You may feel stupid compared to others past trauma and events but just know, you still have every reason to feel that way you feel. Every reason to be sad about what you've been through. And also, Trauma isn't a game. It isn't come competition of who has it worse, its something everyone faces, and thats what should bring us together. Not make us fight or judge each other. Its what makes us stronger. Everything may be horrible right now. Despair may be running through your thoughts but just know... it does get better.

Trust me.
