Its been 2 weeks since the fight with Paul. 2 weeks since I last kissed Noah. We haven't really talked about us. But once in awhile when were both in the kitchen he constantly flirts with me. Other than that I never thought about kissing him. After that day those words he said stuck with me.

"Whatever happens between us after today it'll be because you want me."

Did I actually want something with him? This is so fucked. Ive been keeping myself busy with school and updates with the vampires from Bella. Its now been a month a fucking excruciating month. I think I finally made a decision. I want him.

The other day Noah was so close to kissing me as I sat on the counter. He tried to play it off by reaching for the water bottle behind me as he smirked at me. I could only laugh at his attempt. I knew I was secretly teasing him.... Hurting him.

I stayed at Bella's for awhile to finish up a new school project we had. She assigned me to research the characteristic of a serial killer as she made the outline for our presentation. She sat on the floor as I laid on her bed. She kept on insisting that we both sit on the floor so I wouldn't fall asleep. She knows that every time I lay on her bed I end up falling asleep. But it's just that her bed is soo fucking soft. I turned my head away from her as I dozed off.... again.......

"Hey Aria come onnnn get up,"she said tugging at my shoulder.

I squinted as I tried to open my eyes. "Huh."

"You fell asleep.. AGAIN..... You should really go home. your like in the middle of a damm sleep comma,"she insisted.

"Finee ok I'll text to when I'm done,"I said.

"Ok be careful,"she spoke.

I started to get up from her bed as I put my Ugg's back on. I walked downstairs as I said bye to Charlie. Before I reached my house I decided I would tell Noah about my decision. I played with my sweater's zipper thinking on how Paul would react.

As I walked up the drive-way I noticed the living room lights off and from Noah's window his lights were dim almost off. I opened the door trying to be as quiet as possible. I placed my bag on the kitchen counter as I walked up the stairs. I started getting closer to Noah's room. When I heard noises coming from behind the door.

I leaned closer to his door as I heard moans coming out of some girls mouth. That's when I heard him say her name.

"Chloe."

"Chlo."

I nearly dropped my phone on the floor quickly catching it before he could hear anything. I quickly ran into my room silently closing and locking the door behind me. I walked towards my bed sobbing.

Not because I wanted him. But because I was right about him. I didn't want to be.

But I knew I had made the right decision to choose Paul. I felt a connection with Paul like I've never felt before. Something different.

New...

I was right about Noah he would be the one to ruin anything if we had something. I just didn't know he would do it so quickly. I wished things didn't have to end like this. Blowing me off like I was nothing. I held back my tears not wanting to waste them any longer on him. Not after this.

I plugged my headphones in trying to cancel out the noise as I tried to sleep.

Tomorrow I'll make things right with Paul. I have to.


I made my way to the kitchen seeing Noah come in through the door. He finally looked back making eye contact with me.

"Ohh hey what are you doing up early?"he said suspiciously.
