Chapter 22:
I woke up in a light room. Guy wasn't in bed with me anymore, so it was a little cold. I checked the clock on my phone and I saw that it was very late. Suddenly I heard voices from another room. I walked out of the bedroom in just the t-shirt I slept in, which was Guy's by the way. I followed the sound of the voices. They were in the living room, and I think it was Guy, Sam and Adelaide.
"Why haven't you told us you two were dating?", Sam squealed.
"Have you told Noelle about her?", Adelaide asked. What? I thought I was the only one Guy was dating?
"No, I don't think it's relevant. I just remembered the other day that I never told you about her"
I was seriously hurt by this. I walked back to the bedroom and started packing my things. Tears started to form in my eyes. How could I believe that he actually wanted me? Right before I was ready to leave Guy opened the door. "Hi love, I-", he started. "Where are you going? What's wrong?"
I tried to hold in the tears that was about to spill. "What's wrong is...is that you are dating someone else"
He looked confused. "What do you mean?"
What do you mean? There was no idea in trying to hold back those tears, because they were already streaming down my face. "You are dating someone behind my back, but you didn't plan to tell me, because it's not relevant. How could you be so mad at me for talking to Gareth because I wanted him to walk out of my life, when you clearly are dating someone behind my back? If I actually had died that night, or yesterday for that matter, it wouldn't have solved all my problems, it would have solved yours!"
"Noelle, I don't know what you're talking about! I would never date anyone else when I have you"
I could barely speak anymore, because of all the tears. "But you told Adelaide and Sam just minutes ago"
I was a complete wreck right now. I sat down on his bed, because I was shaking uncontrollably.
"I told them about a girl I dated years ago. They knew her, but they didn't know we were dating, and I just wanted to tell them. They came by to ask how you were feeling, and since you were sleeping, I invited them in for a chat"
How could I be so stupid? I was only making a fool out of myself. Of course it was his ex. How couldn't my stupid brain just figure that out?
He came over to my side of the bed and sat down besides me. "I think there's a lot I need to fix before you can fully trust me"
He layed me down and placed himself besides me. "And the first step of making you trust me, is to tell you everything, from the first moment I saw you"
He took a deep breath. "It all started three years ago. I saved a girl from drowning, but when I visited her on the hospital she was so angry. That's when I knew you were something special", he said and I giggled a little.
"Then a while later you came to our concert and I couldn't believe it was true. I thought you hated me, but then it turned out that you didn't know I was playing in Coldplay. And that also makes you special", he teased. "And I guess you remember our little conversation there. But I doubt you remember it as well as I do, because that conversation played itself inside my head atleast once a day until I met you the next time. And that time I just couldn't let you go. Because I was in love with you even before I knew you. I talked to Jonny about this a while before I met you in that bar. That I was in love with you after the concert. Not because I knew every little thing about you, about your favorite songs or books. But because I cared so much about you even though I had only met you twice", his words were not what I had expected.
"But as I said, the last time I couldn't let you go. I needed to see you again. And you have no idea how good it felt when you said yes to a date. And how heart breaking it was to hear you cry over the phone. And how much I hated myself when Will called and told me about your phone call. You have no idea how much I cried at the hospital, while you were in that room", Guy was also crying by now. "And I swear, Noelle, that when you kissed me, I was the happiest man in the world. Because you are the most precious human being I have ever met. And I don't deserve you, but you kissed me like you felt the same way"
I was completely taken by his words. I didn't know what to or say. So I leaned in and kissed him. When we pulled apart he dried his tears. "And every time you kiss me I feel so lucky. And I think of what I said yesterday. That one day, I want you to live in this house, and I want to spend every single night together with you. And I wish that one day, your last name will be Berryman, and that one day, there will be small Guy's and Noelle's running around in the garden. Because you are that special to me, Noelle. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to grow old with you"
He kissed me on the lips. "Noelle, you belong with me, not swallowed in the sea"
THE END.
A/N:
So as I said in Reign of Love, I can't write a story with hundreds of chapters. I think it's better if I keep it short, because otherwise, it would be even more boring than it already is. And just as last time, THIS IS NOT THE LAST OF ME. I have atleast two more stories on the way, next one about Jonny, called Cemeteries of London. I'll let you know when it's published.
Thank you for all the support! Love you lots! x
