Chapter 15:
I unlocked my phone. 10.57 pm. I had recieved a text message.
From: Guy Berryman
You wanna come over to Will's place? We want to meet you!
I tried to just ignore the message but I catched myself smiling shortly after.
To: Guy Berryman
You mean that you want to hang with me and the other's don't really have a choice?
From: Guy Berryman
That's actually kind of true, but come on, I know you want to! Just come whenever you are ready x
Shortly after he texted me where Will lives.
Guy got me so confused. I feel like he's flirting with me or something. I'm not gonna lie, I kind of like it though. I mean, if I had to pick one out of the four boys it would definetly be Guy. But at the pub the other day? When he wrapped his arm around my waist, like we were together or something? He just messes up my head.
Either way I made myself ready. I just put on black skinny jeans and a blue knitted sweater. Maybe half an hour later I was just outside my door. It took me around another half an hour to get to Will's house. As I knocked on the door I felt very nervous. I barely even know these boys and I've been nothing but rude. I bought some flowers on my way here as a little "I'm sorry"-gift.
Chris opened the door with a huge smile on his face. "I bought these for you guys", I mumbled as I handed over the flowers. He pulled me in for a hug. "Aw Noelle that's so sweet! We're so happy you came!"
Wow, I really didn't think the other's wanted me to come. He motioned for me to come in, and went to the living room where the other's were. "Look guys, Noelle bought us flowers!"
"Aw thanks Noelle!", I heard Will shout from the living room. Seconds later, Guy came out to me. "You're here", he said and pulled me in for a long hug. "I came", I breathed. He smelled so good. We pulled apart and he looked at me. "You bought us flowers. You have to be the cutest girl in the world"
I sighed. "I just wanted to give you something for still wanting to see me. I've been so rude this whole time"
Guy grabbed my shoulders from behind and started to lead me into the living room. "Noelle has a very important announcement to make! Everybody listen up!"
Everybody fell silent and looked at me. "Well...I bought those flowers because I...I wanted to say that I'm sorry for being so rude"
All of them smiled at the same time. "It's fine. We're just happy that you two get along now", Chris said. I smiled at him. "Me too"
"So how's Alisa by the way?", Jonny asked after a while of just chilling in this huge couch of Will's. Guy looked at me with an apologetic look. "I'm not really sure to be honest, I haven't talked to her for months"
"I'm sorry, I didn't know that you two...", Jonny started.
"No it's fine. We're not mad at each other, it's just that she moved to France a while ago and that's when I moved here"
"But why don't you talk anymore?"
"She moved to get away from me. As I said, not because we're mad at each other but she said that she had catched feelings for me and she knew I would never feel the same"
"I see. Hey I'm hungry, anyone want to make some food for me?", he asked and glared at the boys. "I could make some", I suggested and Will said he could too. "I'll help too", Guy said but Will resisted. "Come on Guy, you hate cooking. Leave this to me and Noelle"
The other's laughed as we walked to the kitchen. "Will, I love your house. It's so beautiful!"
He smiled. "Thank you. I just need to find the perfect one to share it with though. If I do that, it would be the perfect house", he stated. "When you do", I added. He smiled. "Do you know who you want this someone to be?", I asked as I raised my eyebrows. "I know exactly who I want it to be...but you can't tell the other's what I just said!". I giggled and left the subject, since I noticed he felt uncomfortable talking about this.
"Let's talk about you instead, shall we?", he asked as he opened the fridge. I felt that this would be a hell of a conversation, but I agreed anyway. "Shoot."
"I am very, very curious about what's going on between you and my friend out there", he said and pointed towards the living room. I knew it. "Nothing's going on, why?"
He laughed. "I'm not stupid Noelle. What about the other night at the pub? You kissed him when you left". Oh shit, he saw that. "But that was just a peck on the cheek, that's all!"
He looked me straight into the eyes. "So you're telling me there's absolutely nothing going on between the two of you? Because the fact that you're here tells me the exact opposite"
I was silent. "Will, can I be honest with you?"
"Of course, love"
"And you promise you won't tell Guy?"
"I promise, Noelle"
"Great. To be honest, I like Guy. I really like him. It's not like I'm in love but I think he's great and I think there might something a little extra with him. But he looks at me in this weird way, like he can see through me. It's like he knows everything about me, even though there's so much I haven't told him yet"
"And is that a negative thing?"
I thought for a moment. "What do you mean?"
"I just think that, maybe it's not a bad thing that you feel like he can see everything about you. Let's say that you're really sad for some reason, but you don't want to talk about it. A normal person would maybe not notice because you haven't told him that you're sad, but maybe Guy will just see it and try to fix you"
I smiled to myself. Fix me. "Is it true that you wrote Fix You for me?"
"We didn't write it, Guy did". "But anyways, didn't your ex boyfriend look at you the same way as Guy does?"
I guess that Guy has told everyone about Gareth. "He didn't. I thought we knew everything about each other but I was wrong. He had a lot of secrets I knew nothing about"
Will nodded and continued. "But do you really think it's a negative thing that he looks at you in that way? Do you have anything to hide from him?"
"I guess not. There is a part of me that I probably would want to hide from other people, but that part is the only part he's seen"
"I think you should give him a chance. Can you promise me something?", he asked.
I nodded. "If he's asking you out on a date or something like that, then give him a chance. He's really sweet"
"Fine. I promise"
"Great! Well, food's ready so let's go back to the other's!"

A/N:
I have a little announcement to make; I have started writing on two other stories, one about Jonny and one about Will. I won't tell you more than that and they won't be published until this story is finished. But would you want me to publish them later?
