“I want to show you something.” Noah smiled, taking both of my hands and lead me out of the bedroom. I followed close behind as we walked across the condo and he opens a door to another room. The master bedroom. It was dark, so it was impossible to see a thing.
I let Noah guide me. He let go of my hand to open long curtains to reveal a pair of French doors. He pushed the door open, and I followed him onto the balcony. It was beyond gorgeous. Easily the most beautiful view…except for Noah.
“You’re really lucky.” I leaned over the railing, letting the wind kiss my skin and took in the smell of the ocean. The moon hovered over the ocean, illuminating the waves. The sound of the waves crashing were louder now. And so soothing. I could get used to this. I wouldn’t even need a TV.
“Very.” Noah answered, his arms finding my waist.
I couldn’t help but smile. Everything was perfect for the situation we’re all being put in. “Thanks for keeping up your end.” He kissed the side of my head and moved to stand in front of me.
“I didn’t have a choice.”
“You could have easily outbid Laura for Scott.” Was that jealousy?
“I could have, but I didn’t. I would rather be with you tonight.”
His smile could keep me going. “Maybe next time, we won’t have to use charity to be alone.”
“Ash can’t know, Noah. He would kill you.”
He’s close to killing Scott already.
“Don’t change anything for me…please.” My voice lowered.
He lightly shook his head.
“I don’t want Ash to say anything, I don’t want him to suspect anything, okay? You just joined his band and I don’t want to ruin that for him.”
Our relationship should be the last thing he’s worried about.
“I get it.” He rubbed the back of his neck. “You want to still see other people.”
I didn’t want it to sound like that. “Yes, but—”
“I might strike you as that type of person that would have two girls at once, but I’m not. I have one. And you…”
He was making this harder than it had to. And I could punch myself in the face.
“We don’t even know what this is.” I mumbled, tearing my eyes away from his to look at the view. “I know I feel something with you. I know I feel like I want you to myself. I know what I want, but that doesn’t mean I can have it. It’s like a diabetic wanting chocolate.”
He tilted his head a little and smiled, “Did you just compare me to chocolate?”
“Was that all you got out of that?” I laughed.
He took a step closer. “It’s the other way around, Willow.”
“After tonight, we should wait. We should see where this goes before telling my brother.”
Another step closer. “It’s a start.”
“You should probably meet my parent’s before we tell Ash.”
