I couldn't understand. I couldn't understand why going to this party with Noah kicked my anxiety into overdrive, I couldn't understand why sitting at a lunch table with all his friends, felt like drowning, and I couldn't understand why Kai had left me. Someone said they saw him drive away on his motorcycle this morning, which was odd because, he had just come to visit me only moments before, why would he just leave? and not that skipping school was above his character, but I just thought that he had moved past that. The whole rebellious thing. I guess that was Kai Carson. He did whatever he wanted, yet that still didn't explain why he would just leave so suddenly. I frown my brows together in frustration. I didn't get it. I didn't get him. He kept so much from me, as did I, yet whenever he touched me I felt like I was floating, and whenever he mentioned my name I felt butterflies. Being with Kai gave me so much life, so much purpose. Only with Kai did I feel like I could truly be myself, it's like he saw past everything that I tried to hide, and saw right past it. He just got me. I just wished, I would get him. It drove me crazy - he drove me crazy.

I sigh in frustration, clutching my fist and biting my lip.

"Hey, hey what's wrong?" Noah questions, quickly nugging me.

Noah's touch brought me back to reality, and pulled me out of my own thoughts. I was so stuck, focused on Kai that I forgot where I was. In the lunch room, was a giant table filled with all the school Athletic stars, and pretty pageant queens. Because of Noah, I got a personal invitation to sit at the cool kids table. It was my very first time ever joining the bunch for lunch, and Noah thought it would be a good idea to get familiar with everyone, since pretty much everyone at this table would be at Noah's party Tonight. I was "making friends. They just weren't the kind of friends that I wanted to make. The kind of friend I wanted, ditched school and showed up every other day with bloody knuckles, and had a bad reputation. The kind of friend I wanted left me without a single explanation.

"Nothing," I whisper back too quickly. No need to draw unwanted attention to myself at the crowded table.

"Just nerves about tonight" I say, waving my hand dismissively at the idea. At least that part wasn't a lie. I was in fact very nerves to attend a High School party for the first time in my life. A party where it would be full of meathead jocks, and popular girls. At least this wouldn't be my first rodeo with Noah and his squad. I remembered the last time I hung out with them. The cave was the last place I'd gathered with the group and, besides the mean girls that were Maddie and Kylie. Other than that, it was an okay. I had Nothing to worry about - Yet, I couldn't convince myself 100% that that were true. Would tonight be okay? Who knew, I didn't.

Instead on responding Noah places his palms onto mine, holding my hand underneath the table full of crowded teenagers. Nobody seemed to notice the juster between us.

"It'll be okay, I promise" Noah whispers into my ear. A small comforting smile spreading across his face, that meets his eyes. He doesn't let go of my hand, as he turns back towards his group of friends.

"Tonight's party is going to be awesome. My parents are out of town on a business trip, so that means beer, and skinny dipping in the pool until midnight" Noah announces to the group. I was shocked to see how many people got excited over Noah's comment. I wondered which part weer they most excited about. The underage drinking, or the swimming naked in the pool. Both sounded horrific to me. I wouldn't be participating in neither of the two.
