Fangs

Chapter 22

When I woke up Noah was still sleeping. That didn't last long though. He soon opened his dark eyes. He kissed me and hugged me tighter. I looked at the clock. It was 9:18.

"Noah we should go upstairs."

"I don't want to though." He said in a sleepy voice. God that was hot.

"We have to Noah."

"Fine." He said as he got up and went to the bathroom.

I got up and went to my dresser. I grabbed my brush and brought it to my hair. After I finished I walked out of my room and waited for Noah. When he walked out we went upstairs and sat at the table. My mom brought over some coffee for us and I gratefully took it.

My dad was busy making pancakes. I loved his pancakes.

"How was your sleep?" My mom asked.

"Pretty good. How was yours?" I replied.

"Pretty good. When are you guys heading out?"

"Sometime after lunch probably." Noah said.

"Okay." My mom smiled at him.

My brothers walked into the dining room and sat down in their respective spots. They had a look on their faces.

"What." I questioned.

"Nothing nothing." Chase said.

"I don't believe you. I'm watching you." I said as I pointed from my eyes to them. Noah laughed at me. I glared at him. My mom set the table and my dad put a plate of pancakes on the table as he sat down.

"Thanks for breakfast dad." I said as I grabbed some pancakes.

"You're welcome." He said.

"Before I forget Mom and Dad I have birthday presents for you." I said.

"Thanks honey. We'll open them after breakfast." My mom said.

After I finished eating I went down to my room and got their gifts. I went back upstairs and found Matthew and Chase sitting on top of Noah. I started to laugh.

"Just for the record I let them." Noah said.

"Sure you did." Matthew said.

I gave my mom and dad their gifts. I got my dad a sharpening set for his knives and I got my mom some candles and a gift card to a book store.

"This is from both me and Noah." I said as they read the cards.

"Thank you." My parents said.

"You're welcome." I said for both Noah and myself. He couldn't exactly do anything right now.

I snapped my fingers at my brothers. "Off. Me and Noah need to go soon."

They groaned and eventually climbed off of Noah. Noah stood up, brushed himself off and moved to stand beside me.

"I let them." He whispered to me.

"I know you did." I whispered back.

My mom got up from the couch and walked into the kitchen. She got out a container and put a bunch of food from the fridge and pantry inside along with a freeze pack.

"You won't be getting this back for a while mom, are you okay with that?" I asked as I accepted the container from her outstretched hand.

"Of course I am. We have too much Tupperware anyways."

"Okay thanks mom." I said as I hugged her.

"We should start packing." Noah said.

I nodded and broke the hug with my mom. Noah and I headed back downstairs into my room to collect our belongings. Once we finished packing we went back upstairs and set our bags down by the door.

"Are you sure you have to leave now?" My mom asked.

"Yeah I'm sorry mom. It was good to see you again." I said.

"Yes it was. It was a pleasure to meet you Noah." My mom said as she hugged him.

I couldn't help but smile. I loved how well he was getting along with my family. My brothers and dad all shook Noah's hand and then hugged me.

"Love you guys." I said.

"We love you too. We'll miss you." My mom said.

"I'll miss you too. Goodbye." I said.

"Goodbye." My family said in unison.

"Make sure you call me more often. I miss talking to you everyday." My mom said.

"I will mom, see you soon." I said. We walked out the door and shut it behind us. It was always hard saying goodbye to them but at least this time I didn't cry.

Noah squeezed my free hand but I shook him off.

"Don't forget we're going to be having a talk mister."

"I'm not flower." Noah said.

We put our things in the backseat again and got into the car. We drove out of my parents yard and drove in silence until we reached the highway again.

"When did you decide that I'm your girlfriend?" I asked Noah without looking at him.

"When I decided that I loved you." Noah replied. He said it so casually.

"W-What? You l-love me?" I couldn't believe what he had just said.

"Of course I do. You're funny, smart, match me in almost every way and not to mention how pretty you are. I love being around you and am so lucky to have gotten the chance to know you. I love you Hannah. Will you be my girlfriend?" He said.

My mouth dropped. He loved me. I loved him back.

"Of course I will. I love you too Noah."

He pulled the car over into an approach and parked the car. He looked at me and smiled. He leaned over and gave me the most passionate kiss I've ever experienced. When he pulled away he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear.

"I love you."

"I love you too Noah." He kissed my forehead and we continued on the road again.

I can't believe today happened.
