Watching the door open, Noah's face instantly drops, surprised at who answered, with a closed smile Noah asked."Is Scarlett Elizabeth Prince here?"

With her arms crossed as she rolled her eyes in annoyance ,and with the biggest attitude, as if he had personally did something to her Giselle replied. "If she was I wouldn't tell you!"

"Did I do something to you?" Noah asked arching his eyebrow confused to why she was giving him such an attitude .

"Yup!"

Turning on the balls of his feet Noah says. "Well tell her I stopped by."

"She's at the doctors, with Yasmin." Giselle replied rolling her eyes. Giselle didn't know why she was telling Noah this, as far as she was concerned, Noah was public enemy number one. For what he did to her best friend, he really broke me. But for some reason she felt compelled to tell him.

His eyes instantly growing wide as his heart sped up Noah asked."Is she okay?"

"Now why would I tell you that, you barely know her, right?"

Giving her, a closed smile Noah replied."Right, I was going to bring her some soup, you know because she brought me- us cookies to welcome us to the neighborhood, you know if she was sick, but since she's not."

"Can you tell her I stopped by?"

"Can't make any promises."

Walking up to my house I seen the last person I wanted to see, Noah, once again, this time he was alone.

Rushing over to me Noah asked."Are you okay?"

"Why wouldn't I be?" I asked.

"Your friend said you went to the doctors?"

"Yeah-with my friend Yasmin, she had an appointment, and I went with her."

With the look of concern leaving his face Noah replied."Oh, I thought you were sick."

"Well I'm fine." I replied. I was so focused on the perfection that stood before me, that when some random guy walking past, shoved me to the ground, It came completely unexpected, and what came even more unexpected, was when the guy poured his slushy over my head, and then threw his cup at Giselle and spat on Yasmin. "Stupid Jeesabuses, go back to your own city!" The guy mumbled, forget the fact we were all born and raised in this city and so has generation upon generation of our families, but non of that mattered to him, we didn't belong here in his eye . Instantly with out any hesitation Giselle came running down my steps, her and Yasmin charging towards the guy.

But Noah got to him before either one of them could even get half way there. With his eye brows scrunched up, his jaw clinched and the veins in his neck and face popping you could see the anger written across his face. Almost like he snapped Noah roughly pushed him against my car, with a tight grip on the guys shirt Noah asked.

"You think its okay to put your hands on a woman-huh, how about you pick on someone your own size?!"

Laughing to him self the guy says."Don't tell me you're a Jeesabus lover?"

Deepening his voice as he held on to his shirt, with a death like grip with one hand, as he pointed back at me with his other hand, Noah says. "If I EVVVER-find out you came near her again , I promise you it will be the last thing you do!"

Noah lets the guy go, and the guy ran off like a bat out of hell. Turning around to see the shocked faces of Giselle, Yasmin and I as Noah gives a nervous laugh and says.

"Sorry, I just hate seeing a man put his hands on a woman ."

Titling her head to the side Giselle asked."Do you do that for all the people you don't know from a hole in a wall?"

"Or is Scarlett just special?"

Ignoring her, Noah kneels down and offers his hand to me. Accepting I grab his hand as he swiftly lifts me up.

"Are you okay?!"

Touching the slushy in my hair and then looking at it in my hand I replied.

"Yeah- I think so."

Sighing Noah just stares at me for and awkward amount of time causing me to ask.

"What?"

Shaking his head Noah says. "Nothing, I just have something to tell you..."

"Okay."  I replied folding my arms under my chest.

"Juusst- not now, can you meet me around eightish?"

"Sure."
