A/N Hey guys. Just a quick heads up, I won't be updating next week as I have a competition this weekend and I'm going to be focusing on that for a majority of the week. As always enjoy the chapter and don't forget to comment what couple you want to see next.
Dear Noah,
For the years that I have known you, and the years that I was your best friend, there have always been girls.
They come between our friendship because they think I'm a threat, and I never thought I was one until you made A-Troupe and I didn't, because that's when I started to see you as more than my best friend.
But every year it's a new story; a new girl, none of them me.
First, you started with Abi.
When you first met her, you fell for her. You tried to hug her and she didn't even know you!
I know you and you don't hug me, not anymore.
Anyway, Abi and I started hanging out, and you joined in too. There was one point where I thought maybe you actually wanted to spend time with me, but you ignored me and I knew that you didn't feel the same thing that I felt for you.
After the two of you kissed at Amanda's welcome home party, you started to go out, which made things ten times more awkward between us.
Then, after the internationals win, you two broke up, and Abi moved to a new studio. I figured I had a chance with you until you fell for another former Elite member, Amanda.
To this day, I still don't know what you saw in her. She once tried to tear the studio apart, and during A-Troupe audition went to another audition because she wasn't dedicated.
She didn't deserve the spot on A-Troupe, Cierra did ( remember her huh?), but Amanda joined the team again and it sparked something between you two.
You thought she was the only one that cared when you had to go to the hospital, but I cared too. You were my best friend, why wouldn't I? You didn't seem to notice though, you had Amanda and you figured that was all you needed, a clingy girlfriend, and a distraction from your injury. That's how I saw it anyway.
You told her you loved her, the first girl you had ever said that too, but it took her forever to actually reciprocate that. If that was me, I would have told you that I love you too straight away, because I do.
Then she wanted to leave again, how could you support her choice to want to leave in the middle of regionals. Even during our duet, you were more concerned about her than me, which isn't how it works. I was supposed to trust you, but you couldn't even try to gain that trust in that one moment.
You could try to please Amanda, but you couldn't try to build trust with me, your best friend.
Then she left too, and you were left alone until the year after during one of Daniel's ballet workshops.
Jacquie.
She got your attention just like the last two girls had. You were willing to ruin your friendship with Henry for her, and that's when I realized that I never stood a chance and I started to back out.
We fought and then both came to a realization that we weren't best friends anymore.
I dropped out of the picture and watched you and Jacquie become something more. She made me aware of the fact that the two of us would never work out and that I was just a person in the background watching the world around.
So, I moved on.
I have Elliot. You have Jacquie.
That's all we'll ever need.
Goodbye Noah.
Richelle
