Noah's pov:
As much as i hated doing this to Michael, i refused to let him think he could get away with it like last time, so yes, i am watching him like a hawk.

"I'm full though." he huffed, folding his arms as he pushed a plate with a half eaten pizza.

"Baby, I'd believe you if you were on your third slice, but you've taken three bites out of one, come on." i sighed, slumping my arm on the table, leaning my head in the palm of my hand.

"But i really am full, i ate before-"

"Not working on me."

"Ugh! Whatever." he rolls his eyes, taking another bite and looking away as he swallows.

"Thank you, baby." i smiled as he threw off the sarcasm, finishing a slice.

"I don't want anymore." he places the crust back down

"Okay, that's fine, come on." it'd been a hard few weeks with juggling on the kids, Michael and now his issues with eating again, also him and Maisie not speaking, which is the most impactful.

Him and Maisie have never ever fought before, they've always refered to eachother as siblings and technically they are, since Maisie is an orphan and Mr Afton has legal guardianship over her, so this is weird, he hasn't spoke about the situation, but she has, continuing to apologize and tell him that, but he won't listen.

Now i understand both sides, but i don't think they could've actually lasted this long without speaking to eachother, they were inseparable.

Ever since he'd been discharged he'd been off, i get it, so i tried not to be pushy with him, also tried not to come off as controlling and more as if I'm just worried, which i know he gets, but he also barely even speaks now, to anybody, if he's not needed, he's laying in bed doomscrolling or asleep.

He lays in bed again, messing on his phone, probably ignoring Maisie's messages again, i kneeled over to the side of the bed where he was, holding his arm slightly.

"Baby."

"Hmm?" he looks up at me

"What's wrong with you, sweet boy?" he rolls over, hiding himself away

"You can tell me, i would never be mad at you." i played with his hair

"There's nothing to say." he mumbled, pushing his phone away.

"Are you sure? I just want you to be happy and i know your not."

"I'm fine, i promise, Noah." he squeezes my hand, sitting up as he gives me a reassuring smile that i couldn't tell if he was faking or not.

"But you would tell me if something was up right?"

"I'll try to."

"Is it something to do with Maisie?" i watched as his expression quickly flickered, now he looked slightly pissed.

"No." he moves away from me, suddenly pulling off his hoodie, now only left with some shorts and a white shirt.

"She is sorry, baby."

"That's nice." yeah, it's definitely something to do with her.

"She was just afraid, she only told me, i wasn't going to make it as much as a big deal as it came out to be, but your parents overheard us talking, i was just going to talk to you, alone." i explained but he just ignores me, laying back down and curling into a ball.
