Bound to be Best Friends

Chapter Six

I couldn't stop myself from blurting it out, I felt horrible that he was still seeing her. I can't blame  Noah though, I mean he doesn't even know how I feel. The problem is I can't tell because if I do everything changes and I know it'll be for the worst especially because I know he doesn't like me back. We were sat in an awkward silence neither one of us knowing what to say. I miss him a lot but i don't know if i should tell him, I don't know if I can handle us being so close even more so now that he is dating Casey.

"I think I should go" I said in a dainty voice scared of his reaction.

"Ok, I guess I'll see you around" Noah jumped out of his seat and walked out of the cafe before I could say anything. I don't understand why it has upset him so much that I said I was seeing someone, he's the one with the new girlfriend.

I got up out of my seat and set on my journey home, I couldn't understand his reason for being mad. I arrived home and walked up the stairs to my bed room and sat on the edge of my bed. I knew I had to get Emma's opinion on this, otherwise I'll drive myself mad. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and dialled her number. She picked up on the second ring. 

"Hey! Tell me everything, what did he say? how did he take you seeing someone? are you friends again?" she rambled out

the questions were shouted through the phone line and I didn't have any chance to answer them as she kept shooting them out. 

"if you could shut up for a second I'll tell you" i sharply said back

"just hurry up and tell me, stop stalling" Emma said in a short tone

"Ok so we were fine, I had just sat down when Casey comes over to the table" I started with Emma letting out a shocked gasp.

"anyway so she said something about being excited for their date and then left, before I could even process what had happened I was telling Noah that I was seeing someone and that it was going well. We sat there for a few minutes neither of us knowing what to say. I couldn't think of what to do so I told him I had to leave and he practically stormed out of the place." I finished off, not taking a breath.

"wow thats absolutely crazy. I told you he liked you!" she let out an excited scream.

"The doesn't mean that he likes me, I'm sure he was just shocked and didn't know what to say. It has just been him and I for ages." I reasoned.

"you'll see. I have to go anyway Max has just arrived but we will talk about it more tomorrow. Bye." Emma finished and hung up the phone.

I stayed on my bed letting my mind wonder off, thinking about everything that has changed over the last couple of weeks. I have gone from ignoring Noah to talking to him again and even having him storm out on me without telling me what he was really thinking. It pains me that our friendship of so many years has come to this, I miss everything about him. I miss his sarcastic comments and witty replies. I miss him coming around just because he felt like and spending hours on the couch just talking about pointless things and having a laugh. What I miss most of all though is having someone who loves you for you, there is no need to dress up for them or try and impress them at the end of the day all they care about is you and without Noah I don't have that in my life.

I knew I had to go to bed before I'd have a breakdown and spend hours sobbing about the fact that it's now been a month since Noah and I have had our movie Friday's or a long honest talk about what we want to do with our lives. I leant over to the lamp and switched it off. Tomorrow is going to be a better day, I can just feel it.
