Drunk Words Are Sober Thoughts

Chapter 6 - Noah POV

NOAH POV - Chapter 6

Ugh, how can Carsyn be so ignorant?! I slam the door shut and throw my keys on the table then head upstairs and take a shower. After finally calming down, I realize Ieft Carsyn at the bar. Shit! I hurriedly threw on clothes, grabbed my keys and rushed out the door. Speeding down the road, I pull into the parking lot, almost hitting the drunk people stumbling around. I pull into the parking spot and rush into the bar. My eyes wander around looking for her, but there is no sign of her. Then I hear a familiar drunk voice, I turn to the dance floor, and see her, grinding on every guy. I march over to her, and attempt to pull her away. "Get your hands off of me! Let me be!" "No, Carsyn, I will not, you're drunk and reckless." "Good, that's way I want to be, so I don't have to remember anything tomorrow!" She giggles, oh dear, she pushes me away and goes back.

I sigh and retreat to the back of the corner, and think of what to do. I slowly move into the crowd of sweaty drunk people, as girls attempt to grope me, I shove them off, and keep moving slowly towards Carsyn. I silently ask the guy with her to let me have her, it takes a second, but soon gives in. I sway with Carsyn, she hasn't noticed it's me yet. Soon, I notice she is getting tired, she starts to fall over and I catch her, and take this as my moment to get her home. I pick her up, take her to my car and strap her in. I wake her up, force her to drink a bottle of water, some advil, and help her out of the car. As soon as she realizes it's me her face hardens and glares at me. "Why the hell am I with you?!" She attempts to push off me, but starts to fall, I grab her and keep her steady. "Thank you." she mumbles. "No problem." I half smile to her.

I walk her in, and she goes straight to the couch and lays down. "You can have my bed, I can sleep down here." I offer. "No thanks, this is comfy." Her voice is muffled, but still somewhat understandable. I sigh, and just sit down in the chair next to her. "Why are you still here, Noah? I don't want to talk or see you right now." "I'm not going anywhere, I promise." "Sure you aren't, just like you were whenever we were 8 at the park?" She remembers? "You remember that?" I squeak. "I remember everything, Noah, I tried so hard to forget it, but I never could, it was like I couldn't just 'let go', you know? Now, can I please sleep?" "Yeah, I do know, I did the same thing. Sure, I'll bring by some more water later, sleep well. Goodnight, Carsyn." I shuffle over and kiss her head, which causes her body to stiffen. I guess she isn't used to this type of stuff. "Goodnight, Noah, thank you for..." Then she drifts off to sleep.

I can't seem to sleep, who knew I'd end up like this, the girl I couldn't keep my eyes off of in third grade, who left me, is sleeping in my house. I gently tip-toe back downstairs, pick her up swiftly and bring her upstairs. I lay her gently on my bed, bring a cup of water, set it on the bedside table, then head back downstairs to take the couch. I watch some TV, still not able to fall asleep, and then hear a scream. I think it's the TV at first, but I turn it off and it continues. It's coming from upstairs, Carsyn! I run upstairs and swing the door open, to find a tear-streaked face of Carsyn. Worriedly I hurry over to her. "Are you okay?! Are you hurt?! Carsyn! Carsyn! Wake up!" She continues to scream as I shake her, she continues to sob and tremble. "Jacob, get away, I know I'm worthless, I know! I'm sorry I'm alive! Just please! I just got Noah back! At least let me tell him bye! J-J-Jacob..."

I shake her more forcefully this time, hoping not to hurt her. It wakes her up, her eyes widen when she sees me, she grips onto me and cries more. "Oh, God, oh God, you saw it didn't you?! You must think I'm ugly and-and-and-" I cut her off and wrap my arms around her. "Sh... Darlin' You are not ugly, I know you get nightmares, I remember. It's okay, sh... Don't worry, I'm here." I rock her back and forth for a bit. "Stay with me, please, Noah, please." She begs, I know I shouldn't but if she wants me to, if it'll make her feel safer, I will. "Okay, just go back to bed, it's okay." With that, she closes her eyes while I lay down with her and hold her tightly.

I got up around 7 am, silently and gently releasing my grasp around Carsyn. I walked downstairs and began pouring cereal in a bowl for Carsyn and one for me. I decided to go watch some tv in the den, so I went down there and ate. Sighing, I realize that I'm probably going to get into trouble with Jacob, due to the fact that the check was fake. I don't even have that amount of money... My phone starts ringing, speak of the devil, well, checks can't process that fast, so we know that isn't why he is calling... I pick it up.

"Hello?" "Hello, Noah." "What would you like?" I sneer. "Chill man, I was just calling to see if you were interested in another buy?" As much as I'd like to help the girl out, I don't know if I can. "Nah, man, I'm good. Your sis- I mean, that girl is hot!" Nervous that he picked up the part where I started to say "his sister" I hang up abruptly. I hear footsteps coming down the stairs, she's awake. I head out to the bathroom and get some pain-relievers, and a cup of water. I head out of the den and back to the kitchen to see her eating the cereal I had prepared for her, and hand her both things. She gently takes both, and swallows both. "Do you need anything else, Carsyn?" I question. She just shakes her head. "I'm going to go shower, do what you want." She nods, and I head up to take a shower, yet again.

I take a shower to the point the warm water has been used up, the water is now cold. I decide that's the time to get out, I get out, wrap a towel around my naked body and head to my closet. I open the door to my room, and see a figure looking around, that figure is Carsyn. She turns and looks at me, her face flushing, I forgot I was in only a towel. I walk quickly towards my closet and pick out a black tank top, and a pair of ripped jeans. After fully dressing, I walk out, scanning around the room for Carsyn, she is nowhere to be found. How weird? She was just here, like 5 minutes ago. I walk downstairs and look around, as I make my way to the kitchen, I notice a note sitting on the counter.

Noah, thank you for "buying" me, I appreciate it. I appreciate you coming back for me last night versus just leaving me. I still agree on what I said, I don't care about my "well-being" if someone I like is hurt or in trouble, I will fight for them, no matter what. Anytime I am around, and someone is hurt, it's usually because of me, so therefore I'm leaving. Your house is very nice, and so it shall stay that way. See you on the flip side? Or never, like you wanted, trust me, I can read you like an open book, I know you want me gone...

See ya'

-Carsyn.

Well, shit. Not again, she doesn't even have a car, she's walking?! I-I don't care about her, I need to stop worrying about her, she is just nuisance, Noah, just a nuisance. I forget about it, she was right, I wanted her gone, so she did what's best and left. Did I actually want her gone? Yes, no question about it, well, I don't know anymore. Damn it! I get a phone call from my boss, Kakio. I pick it up, "who is it this time, sir?" I hear a grunt, and incoherent mumble, "'S Kork's group, he got 5 of our guys hostage, Jinx, Marcus, and Hith." Damn, that's some of better guys... "Want met to head over?" I hear him shuffling papers and such. "Yeah, and hurry the fuck up!" I wonder who is on his period today? Kakio, that's who. I grab my keys and headed out to our hideout, which is actually in plain sight, Kakio's house.

Kakio lives in the next city, which is a bit trashy, but I don't know why he lives there, as a gang leader, he receives quite a bit of money from companies..? Matter of opinion, I guess. So, it takes about 45 minutes to get over there, as soon as I get out, I'm rushed by my buddies, who haven't realized I'm not an intruder. They go to attack me but I just sort of nudge them away, causing them to fall down. "What the- Oh, hey, Stone. Thought you were intruder, boss is pretty tousled right now. He called you, eh? Favorites..." He shakes his head, Stone is my nickname, because that's all my face shows.

I sat there silently, waiting for Kakio to call me up. "Stone, let's go! I don't got fucking all day, do I?" He sneers. And so I head up...
