No Man's Land

Lady and the Man (Part 2)

I have 1.1K LIKE HOLY COW!!! How did THAT happen??? Fact: I didn't know if I would've published this story, I spent a month deciding! I DID IT, obviously.

Noah POV

I begin to stir, it feels like I am on a bed. It must be my home. My eyes flicker open to see a man around the age of 26.
"Bro, you're awake!" He states excitedly.
"Who are you?" I ask confused out of my mind.
"It's me James, James trayton... You don't remember... do you?" I shake my head. He looks confused and runs out.

I close my eyes and an image of a girl fills my mind. Brown hair, green and hazel coloured eyes, the perfect smile, the perfect hair, perfect structure, perfect everything.
"Richelle, hey, what you doing?" I identify the voice as mine. The girl I imagined is in front of my vision.
"Nowhere Noah. I am going home." She says to me. It looks like I have become excited.
My mind goes blank.
It shows us wearing gold rings on our pointer finger. The finger is interlocked with each other as we both say "Best friends forever."
My mind goes blank once again.
It looks like me singing then dancing to a song. I start breaking down, sobbing into my knees.
I keep whispering words like. "I am in love with you Richelle." Or "Why did you go? Why did you run away?"

I open my eyes and gather information from my supposed memories.
Richelle is my best friend slash the love of my life, who ran away. I miss her a lot. I can sing and dance. My name is Noah and Richelle is stunningly beautiful. Suddenly the man I saw before runs in with a lady.
"Do you remember anything?" He asks. I nod and answer.
"My name is Noah, I can dance and sing. Richelle is stunningly beautiful and is my best friend slash the love of my life who ran away. Oh I also have a lot of break downs which I am confused by because I don't remember when or why she ran away." I say to them without taking a breath. They stare at me in shock.
"That's a lot to take in. Are you ok?" The man asks.
"Meh. Its a shock but I don't even know who anyone is apart from her so she must be really important." I state truthfully.
"I am Riley and this is my boyfriend James. We are both dancers for The Next Step Studios." Riley says.

"I deserve to be in A-troupe!" "I will show you what a former J trouper can do!" "RICHELLE!" "Get away Abi!" "I am leaving The Next Step." "I am joining Lost and Found Music Studios." "You are my family." "I love you Rich." "I nearly punched Max!"
"Let's work on our duets No." "Stop it NOAH IT TICKLES" "Best sleepover ever." ' "I am glad I went to Junior prom with you Rich, thanks for turning down your date." "Anything for my best friend." ' "Thanks for turning down Abi for senior prom."
"Anything for MY best friend." '
"THE NEXT STEP!" ' "I have been in love with you for 7 years Rich!" "Try 14 years Noah!" '
"JILEY JILEY JILEY!"
"You make a cute couple." "We aren't dating."
"I miss you Rich, you ran away seven years ago, why?"

I leave my trance of flashes and voices of my memory.

"Jiley?" I question them. They look to the floor smiling as they hold hands.
"That us," James says as he raises their linked hands slightly. "You made a ship name and now everyone uses it." He admits.
"It's cute." Riley shrugs.
"Who's Abi?" I say uncertainly.
"She was your first girlfriend but you broke up with her because she made you stay away from Richelle." James says. The name 'Richelle' rings through my head.
"Can I see Richelle and I's duets?" I ask them. They nod.

"These are the only ones we have seen. The one in the studio is when you guys were around 15 but the other one you were 17." Riley states. I watch the first one. It was in the studio. Richelle is AMAZING! So graceful. I look at the next one and I am blown away. Her skills, my skills!!! She IS AMAZING BEYOND BELIEF!

Sorry for the filler chapter I didn't know what to do.... WATCH OUT FOR MY BIRTHDAY UPDATE IT WILL BE SPECIAL!!!

How do you want Nochelle to meet again - I need ideas...
