I'm holding on - Noel Gallagher

Chapter 8

Noel and I were currently sat on the sofa watching our girl. Well I say 'we' but it was just me while he was complaining about how unrealistic it was and how much he wanted something else on. He never did turn it over though, I guess it was because of how into it I was or maybe it was just his way of being gentlemanly.

"Ads...?"

"Yes Noel." I appreciated that he'd waited until it had finished so we could talk but I somehow wished that we could avoid this a bit longer.

"I was thinking about us and I...um...I well I want to spend a bit more time with ya." He looked down, almost embarrassed and I felt my heart skip.

I put my finger under his chin and made him look at me like he always did when I was nervous or embarrassed. "Spend anymore time with me and we might as well be joint at the hip! I'm surprised you're not bored with me yet, Mr Gallagher."

"You are such a flirt, Miss Winter."

I scoffed "If you call that flirting then I really do wonder how you got all those women back in the day!"

"What do you mean, back in the day! I'm still a catch I'll have you know!"

"Yeah right old man!" I started giggling uncontrollably as Noel started making poses and showing off.

"Seriously though Ads, I miss you when I'm away touring and that. Look, what I'm trying to say is...will you come on tour with me?"

The truth was I'd been waiting to go for ages just to see the atmosphere. It was beyond magical according to Noel and I was jealous. And now that he wanted me to go and spend time with him, it made it so irresistible. Although, I just couldn't shake the fact that Sara and the boys would be back soon, I mean wouldn't they want to be with him on tour.

"I'd love to Noel..."

"well that's settled then we can tell Naï too and we can all go together and you can meet all of my high flying birds..."

"Wait Noel! What about Sara and the boys?"

"What about them?"

"Well surely they're gonna want to spend time with you! They've been away for weeks."

"The boys won't be able to take time off school and Sara would need to stay with them. We'll have a couple of days together before the tour starts."

"What if she decides to come on tour for a bit! I can't just wait around Noel and watch you two together."

"Ads you've been watching us together for ages! It'll only be a couple days, if she even turns up!"

"But now we're together and everything's different! Don't you see Noel? I can't watch the man I love all cosy with another woman. His WIFE for god's sake!" I stormed to the kitchen to get a beer from the fridge to try and keep the tears at bay.

It didn't take long before he appeared at the door and walked over to me.

"You love me?" He asked looking straight at me and now it was my turn to be embarrassed.

"Of course I do Noel. This is what all this is about, isn't it?"

"You love me." This time it sounded more like a statement and I didn't know what to do.

"Well yeah that's what I sai..." I was cut off by his soft lips against mine and his hands on my waist,pulling me in.

When we pulled away he had the biggest smile on his face and I was happy to know it was because of me.

"I do too, ya know?"

"Huh?" Of course I knew exactly what he meant, well I least I hoped I did but I needed to know from him.

"Well...I love ya, don't I?"

"Sorry what was that? Didn't quite hear you" I tried to act lost, I really did but I couldn't help that same smile Noel had before.

"You heard alright. So, is that a yes to the tour then? Cos by the time it's taken you to decide, we should be boarding the plane by now!" He pretended to check his watch with that smug sarcasm that I have learned to love.

"Well if you play your cards right, mr Gallagher. It looks like we have a deal!" I jumped at him with millions of kisses and in that moment I honestly couldn't have been happier.
