"Wake up y/n."

My eyes open to the view of my beautiful boyfriend standing in front of me. "Wake up. We're going to be late for school." Noah tells me. I scoff. "If it involves fake smiling then I'm not going," I tell him. Noah rolls his eyes at me, playfully. "Okay fine. You can stay home today, but if my mom walks in you better be pretty damn convincing that you're sick." Noah says. Noah finishes getting ready for school. He grabs his backpack on his way out the bedroom door. I listen in to Noah and his mom's conversation. "Wheres y/n?" She asks. "Oh... um... she's not feeling well," Noah responds. "Oh. Okay. That's fine." She replies. I hear the front door shut and before I know it Noah is on the bus. Noah's mom exits the hall and comes into Noah's bedroom where I lay in his bed. She sits on the end of the bed. I fake a cough. "It's okay, sweetie. I won't tell your teachers that you're not really sick." She states. "How did you know?" I ask curiously. "Oh, honey. I'm a mom. I know everything." She tells me. "Oh," I say in defeat.  "Do you want to talk about it?" She asks. "Talk about what?" I ask trying to seem oblivious. She sighs "It's fine if you don't want to talk about it anymore."  She gets up off the bed and leaves and I'm alone again. Only now do I realize how big Noah's room is. Big, empty and lonely. I start to think about Noah. I wish I hugged him longer. "I wonder what he's doing at this exact moment. Is he thinking of me? does Noah ever miss me when I'm gone?" I wonder to no one, but myself. "Stop it! you're being clingy!" I mumble aloud.

Throughout the next few hours the thought of Noah popped in and out of my mind and each time I kept trying to bring myself back to the thought of not being clingy, but it hurts when you have someone in your heart, but you can't have them in your arms. Eventually, the echoey silence of Noah's room became too much to bear and I took a walk down to the kitchen where I find Noah's mom. "Oh hi, sweetie! it's about lunchtime. Would you like something to eat?" She asks kindly. "That would be great actually!" I respond. She makes me soup and I eat all of it up quickly. "Thank you," I say before heading back upstairs. 

My eyes begin to grow tired and I fall asleep on Noah's bed. And soon enough, I'm  Pulled away from my half conscience state by a pleasant dream world. everything seemed so real and surreal at the same time. I sat on my bed in silence and stared at a wall. I heard a somewhat familiar whisper. I turn next to me and to my surprise it's the demon from just last night. But I wasn't scared. I didn't feel any urge to get up and run away. I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach that he had something to say that I needed to stay for. "Noah doesn't love you," he says suddenly. "W-what?" I asked. "Seriously. Do you see the way he's always cold and stand-offish around you?" he says again. "I don't know what you're talking about," I say more insistently. The demon scoffs one last time"Oh come on. He's obviously not into you. Move on. Can you really not see it? Wake up, Y/N!" 

"Wake up, Y/N!" 

I jerk my eyes open. I wake up in a cold sweat to my boyfriend trying to wake me up.

"Oh thank god you're here Noah. I love you." 

That right there was the longest second of my life, the one I waited for Noah to say I love you back.
