Like A Villain - I Love Noah Sebastian-

38. You're Too Good To Be True

It was a little after midnight and I was almost done folding and packing the rest of my things. I hadn't heard from Noah for most of the day and I was starting to just accept the fact that he didn't want to be involved anymore. I didn't hear him come in and he scared the shit out of me when I heard the bedroom door slowly creak open behind me.

He looked surprised to see me packing again and he almost looked panicked, which was confusing considering he didn't seem happy I was home earlier.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

I kept my back to him not wanting to see my red and puffy eyes from all the crying I did earlier. I was putting my clothes into my suitcase trying to zip it shut.

"I'm going to a hotel until I can figure out what I'm gonna do..."

"What do you mean...."

I finally got it closed and pulled it off of the bed getting ready to go.

"I'm not going to force you to be a part of this Noah. The way you acted earlier just showed me you don't want me, or this baby in your life." I went to roll my suitcase past him but he wrapped his arms around my waist, stopping me dead in my tracks.

"Please wait..." he sighed, "I do want this. I want the baby and I want you." He made me look at him but I was embarrassed by how watery my eyes were. "I only ran because it just...it was a lot at once and I'm sorry I walked off like that..."

I looked away just wondering if he was actually with the girl from earlier and just bullshitting me.

"....where did you go?"

"I ended up going to Bryan's house for a while." I felt a bit of relief just trying my best to trust that he was telling me the truth. Bryan was a close friend of the band who would join them on tour sometimes and also model merch for them. He had a very young daughter with his long-time girlfriend, and he was the only family man in the bunch.

" We just hung out and talked...he gave me some advice and it was nice to finally talk to someone that understood how I was feeling I guess." He shrugged a bit. "I'm just nervous, Eve. I'm scared to be a dad but that doesn't mean I don't want to do this with you. I meant it when I told you I wanted to start a family with you one day. I love you so much. And I know we can do this together." My eyes welled up with tears for the millionth time today and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"Really?"

"Yes, really. And I'm sorry about earlier with that Sydnie girl and the drink. It won't happen again. I swear. Please don't leave....you just got home and I really missed you." He leaned down resting his forehead against mine,waking up the sleeping butterflies that dwelled deep in my stomach.

"I missed you too." I sniffled. "So much."

"Come on. Let's get to bed. We will unpack your stuff tomorrow." He held my hand in his, leading me to the bed and I was in no position anymore to resist. We both got undressed down to our underwear and climbed into bed. Noah unhooked my bra, and after he removed it I heard it drop to the floor somewhere behind me. He wrapped his arms around me, and the warmth radiating between us, skin to skin, was so comforting after going two long weeks without it. I felt his fingertips gently glide up and down my back, occasionally drawing shapes across my skin. We didn't have to speak, just enjoying each other's presence and sharing hgentle kisses until we drifted off to sleep.
