[Noah's P.O.V.]

Weeks have went by since I hung out with Clark at his apartment and I still can't get over it. He's amazing, really. I haven't been back to his place, but we did go out for pizza again once and another time we went to the movies.

Savannah and Delilah are not happy, but they've decided to drop it. Currently it's a Friday and I'm riding with Leo and Ethan to Savannah's house. We are having a movie night and Savannah's house is the biggest. She has one of those L shaped couches and its big enough to fit all 6 of us on it no problem.

"Mm. I'm hungry." I state as we pull into Savannah's driveway. Leo chuckles and shakes his head.

"Seems like you always are, Noah." He says as he climbs out of the truck and I do the same. We walk towards the house and I look back to see Ethan trailing behind us, doing something on his phone.

I've learned over these past few weeks that Ethan doesn't talk very much. He's just quiet, I guess. When he does talk he doesn't seem shy. I don't really know much about him, to be honest.

Leo is a really nice guy. We get along really well. He has told me all about his 5 year old sister, Katie. He spends a lot of time with her, because his mom is very busy. She apparently owns a bakery. He told me that his dad left them when Katie was born.

Leo doesn't even knock when he gets to the door, he just lets himself in and I follow behind him.

"Honey, I'm home." He shouts and I hear giggles coming from the living room.

"We're in here! We already have a couple of movies picked out!" I hear Delilah shout back.

"Wait, bring the bag of chips!" Savannah yells.

"And if you want drinks get them as well." She adds after a second. I go into the kitchen and grab three Sprites and Leo picks of the family sized bag of Doritos.

"So what movie are we watching first?" I ask as I plop down on the couch next to Alice.

"Life As We Know It." Alice answers with a smile. She's got her long legs folded under her and a book in her lap. Leo and Ethan groan simultaneously and I roll my eyes at them.

"It's a good movie, guys!" I defend.

"Whatever you say, Noah. I'm picking the movie next." Leo states. Savannah and Delilah go to object, but Alice interjects before they can.

"That's fair." Alice says and smiles at him. Awe, I totally ship them!

"Okay, let's play the movie!" Savannah exclaims and gets up from her seat to put the movie on.

I adjust myself in my spot, slightly uncomfortable.

"Can I have a blanket?" I ask as the ads before the movie play.

"Sure," Savannah answers, "Leo, you know where they are. Go get him one."

Leo scoffs and rolls his eyes, but gets up anyway. When he comes back the previews are over and the main screen of the movie is on.

"Click play too while your up." Savannah commands. Leo shakes his head slightly and hits play. I giggle quietly. Savannah has no qualms about bossing Leo around.

✱✱✱

Halfway through the third movie we watch, The Avengers, I feel my phone vibrate in my lap. I pick my head up from leaning against Leo's shoulder and glance down at it.

I notice it's from Clark and sit up all the way. I open the message with a smile already forming on my face.

From Clark: Hey, Gorgeous

My cheeks heat up and I bite my lip to stop myself from smiling like an idiot. I type in a reply quickly.

To Clark: Hi, Clark :)

After I press send I can't help but think about how stupid it was. I should have asked him what he was up to or how he was. I don't want him to think I don't want to have a conversation with him.

I put my phone back in my lap and turn my attention to my friends. Leo, Ethan, and Savannah are all asleep. Alice had to leave earlier because her mom was called into work and no one was at home to watch her little brothers. Twin brothers. I feel bad for Alice.

"Don't they have to go home?" I whisper quietly to Delilah.

"Nah. They usually just crash here. Are you not going to?" She asks quietly back.

"Oh.. I need to ask my dad." I say and she nods her head. I pick my phone back up and send my dad a text asking if I could stay.

It isn't long until my phone vibrates with a text from my dad.

From Daddy: At Savannah's?

To Daddy: Yessssss. Not gonna be alone with any boys, I promise.

I roll my eyes as I send my text back to him. I get another message just after I pressed send.

From Clark: What are you up to? xx

Did he just put kisses at the end of the text? Oh my goodness. He's gonna give me a stroke.

To Clark: Nothing much. Slumber party at Savannah's. Lol. xx

I sit my phone back in my lap and sneak a look at Delilah. She's too focused on the movie to notice anything. I look back down at my phone, slightly disappointed to see it's just another text from my dad there.

From Daddy: Okay that's fine, have fun. Just be home earlier tomorrow. There's something I want to talk to you about. Love you.

My eyebrows furrow as I read the text and I become worried. What is it he wants to talk about? Is it something serious?

I shake the worry off quickly. If it was something serious he wouldn't just mention it over text.

To Daddy: Okay... Love you too.

I lay my head back on Leo's shoulder and feel myself drifting off to sleep. Suddenly, my phone vibrates again. I look down at my phone and smile sleepily

From Clark: Awe, sounds fun. You'll have to have one with me next time. ;) xx

I close my phone and fall asleep with a soft smile on my face.

I Wonder what Noah's dad needs to talk to him about. Just kidding. I know what he want to talk about. Hahahaha.

It's not funny, I know. :)))))
