Chapter 9

"You wanna drink?" Noah asked, his breath already smelt like alcohol. I waved a hand over my nose, to get rid of the smell. Noah noticed and laughed. "Sorry"

"It's alright but anyway, no, I don't want a drink" I replied, leaning against the door frame watching as lights flashed everywhere, music pumping and people dancing.

"C'mon Casey. Don't be a pussy" He rolled his eyes. I elbowed him in the ribs and he winced and rubbed his ribs. He glared at me.

"Shut up. But since now you've got me in the mood, I'll have one. Perferably a Raspberry Cruiser" I nodded, crossing my arms.

"Yes, your highness" He bowed. I rolled my eyes.

"Hey, you offered so..." I shrugged. He snorted and left to the table where the Cruisers were. I glanced around for Aria or Jane. But sadly didnt find them. I sighed and looked down. I looked over at Noah and he was still trying to find the Raspberry Cruiser, even though it was right in front of him. He was so drunk.

I laughed at his stupidity. I was about to walk to him, but was stopped with a hand on my arm. I whipped my head around, to find a hot guy standing in front of me, smirking.

"Your the chick that lives with Noah, right?" He asked and I furrowed my brows but slowly nodded. His smirk grew. Then he pulled me toward him and I ended up right up against him. For some reason, it felt extremely wrong so I backed away. Then he frowned, but was turned back into a smirk and this time he was looking at somebody else, next to me. I looked over to find Noah, scolding at him. He was holding my drink and his.

"Noahie! What up?" He asked, holding out his hand for a handhsake. But Noah didn't do anything, he just stood there. The guy back his hand away, obviously getting the hint that Noah wasn't going respond. But Noah looked like he was looking at someone who stole his most prized possetion and he stiffened.

"Don't call me that, Dan" He glared. So, this was Dan, the one who threw the party. Dan threw his hands in the air in defeat.

"Sorry, dude. Just meant to be a friendly guesture" He smiled. Noah relaxed a bit. He looked at me, and gave me my drink. I thanked at him and I was fixated on Noah. I wonder whats wrong. Did he have a bad side with Dan? Was he just in a bad mood? Or maybe he was jealous...?

I shook myself out of my eeries and looked down. It was silent. Well, not really since music was pumping and people were yelling and dancing. Just as in the convosation.

"I have to go..." Noah finally broke the silence and starting walking off. He was walking to the exit. I looked back and Dan was still here. He politely smiled.

"Well, I guess this leaves me and you--"

"Actually I think, i'll join Noah" I cut him off trying to catch up to Noah, I seriously didn't want to be alone with him. I opened the back door and found Noah sitting down on the back porch throwing rocks into the pond.

I slowly walked to him and sat down next to him. He noticed me and sighed.

"Hi" I muttered and he didn't reply. For some reason I felt a depression vibe sneaking into the convo. He was about to through another rock, until I covered my hand with his. I slipped my fingers in his hands and got the rock. I put it aside and stared at Noah.

He sat still not moving a muscle. "Noah what's wrong? What happened back there?" I asked, noticing concern streaming into my voice. He still didnt reply and he stared straight ahead. I sighed in defeat. I give up.

"Casey do you believe in love?" He had finally asked. I gaped in shock. No one has asked me that before. I struggled to find an answer.

"Well no. Sorry, but I don't believe in love" I stated matter-of-factly. He sighed and I raised a brow at him.

"Why?" As soon those words came out of his mouth, horrible memories came flashing back and I flinched. Sadly so did tears. I ran out as fast as I could. I ran and pushed past people. I didn't bother to say sorry, like I normally would. I had finally made it to the front and I ran to a tree across the road. I leaned against it and fell down. I cried and hugged my legs against my chest. The horrible memories came back, scaring me.

"Casey! Casey!" I heard someone yell. Noah. I shook my head. I wish I never even met him! I cried even harder and made noises, so ironically he found me.He looked at me and knelt down next to me. "Casey, what's wrong?"

"Not-thin-ng" I stuttered, trying to keep under control. After a few seconds, I felt warm arms wrap around me.

"Was it something I said?" He offered. I edged away. I didn't want to be close to a boy right now, let alone Noah. He grunted. "Casey I'm sorry if I hurt you"

Those words...

Flashback...

I heard giggles from inside the room. I opened it a little bit to find Lochlan and Theresa making out. Theresa was sticking her tongue down his throat and Lochlan seemed to be locking tongues. I gasped. I burst through the door.

"Lochlan! Why the hell are you making out with your cousin?!" I exclaimed. I had never seen anything so wrong. They're eyes widened.

"Casey, this isn't want it looks like" Lochlan tried to protest but I ignored him.

"Cousin? I'm not his cousin. I'm his girlfriend. Aren't you the cousin?" Theresa, tilted her head. Then we both realized something at the same time. That two timing ass!

"Lochlan you son of a b*tch!" We both exclaimed and slapped him across the face. She had already ran out the door, crying. I just stood there and shook my head.

"I can't believe I ever loved you" I scolded. He sat there, his face sorry.

"Casey I'm sorry if I hurt you" He apologized but I shook my head and stomped off.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I sat in my bed, crying. I thought he loved me...I loved him...

I looked up on my ceiling. From this day on I will never believe in love again. That was a promise.

End Of Flashback...

I had finally stopped crying. I glanced at Noah and he was sitting still, playing with the tree's bark.

"Noah? Will you hold me?" I asked, becoming cold. He nodded and edged toward me and hugged me. I hugged him back and in a matter of seconds we were in a huge bear hug. My body turned warm and I was nice and cosy.

I felt safe and for some reason loved...
