What Love Feels Like

Epilogue

I finally got the trust to own my own car- according to my parents. And I was like the happiest person ever.

It's like my baby. I want to decorate and make it purple and have a whole bunch of keychains that make satisfying sounds when they clink.

I could literally be like Audrey. It would be so cool.

I freaking love my parents for being the best that I annoyed the heck out of them to show it.

They told me to shut up- but that's not the point because I know they love me too.

I tagged myself along when Isabella and Audrey ran errands- because duh- and guess what I got?

Matching Lego heart keychains.

It's dark red and so cute and perfect.

I'm planning on giving one half to Noah and keep the other.

So that's what I do.

It was supposed to be a surprise at first- me just pulling it out of thin air, but I forgot how I just cannot contain any emotion without showing it.

Noah narrows his eyes after he came jogging to the bleachers after practice, his bag slung around one shoulder. "What did you do?"

Instead of answering, I smother him with quick kisses on his cheeks, lips, and the tip of his nose.

Those lips of his tilt up in a slow, wide grin as he gives me a reaction of a raised brow. "You've officially lost your mind."

"What did I do?" I repeat, trying to sound innocent.

He tilts his head, "Clearly something. Because you have that creepy ass smile plastered on your face."

I can't help it before I grin, "Okay, but I did something, I guess."

He raises a brow, "Uh huh, I figured."

I pull the Lego heart keychain out of my jacket pocket and hold it by the loop. "I got us matching keychains!" I squeal.

He plucks it out of my hand, his lips tilting up in that infectious smile.

"It's so ugly." He says in a complete deadpan.

I glare, "I'll actually kill you."

And then I clear my throat. "It was for disgusting cringey couples but they didn't say it wasn't for friends with benefits."

He gives me a dry look as I burst out laughing.

Noah rolls his eyes but leans in and kisses my cheek. "I love it. I'm putting it on my car keys."

I beam, "Well then. I'll have to put it on mine too."

His brows slightly furrow, "What do you m-"

"I got a car!" I burst out happily. "I'm not even joking."

His jaw drops slightly. "No way."

"Way!"

"No. Fucking. Way."

"Yes freaking way!" I say, jingling my key to his face. "Mom and dad finally trusted me to not crash."

"Is it purple?"

"No, but I'm-"

He doesn't let me finish as he pulls me in a tight hug, lifting me off the ground spinning me once. "I'm so fucking stoked for you, Ariella. That is insane."
