I'm scared
I've never fallen from quite this high
Falling into your ocean eyes
Those ocean eyes
Ocean eyes, Billie Eillish

The door slammed open and there stood Noah with rage in his eyes and knuckles white by holding the handle of the door tightly.

Asher staggered away from me, from the outburst Noah created. His hand going in his head holding onto it.

"Damn Noah-" Before he could complete the sentence Noah's fist connected with his jawline in a flash. As I stood flabbergasted In my place from the events that happened in the past minutes. Me spilling the drink on Asher, him manhandelling me, then kissing me, to Noah punching him.

Noise of cracking bring me out of my thoughts and I looked up to find Noah punching the shit out of Asher while he just murmured shit and said sorry.

I made my way to Noah and grabbed his arm before he could swinged back to hit Asher again and pulled him back.

He brushed his arm away from me and took some steps away from us. Asher took a huge a breath still laying down closed his eyes like he was praying. Praying for his life. Noah's shoulder shook from his heavy  breaths and hands turned into fists tightly like he would kill someone any second. And on the otherhand, I don't know how to explain what I was feeling right now.

Angry at Asher for kissing me without my consent, embarrassed because Noah caught us in a situation, and confused why Noah's acting up. It was the most unbearable situation I was in. I could not handle the emotions which was rolling up inside me. It was like a rollercoaster, emotions going up and down and you just have to sit there and it's upon you if you enjoy the ride or puke your guts out after.

I chose not to enjoy the ride and I ran away from the roller coaster, from Asher and from Noah. Hoping it'll be over tomorrow morning like a dream.

A bad dream.

-

Not everything you wish for comes true. Life plays with us all. By the time I made my way to school hoping Asher kept his mouth shut and wouldn't said a word to anyone.

But no!  

Everyone was staring at me like I was some caged animal and they were looking curiously at the animal. Some were whispering in each other ears, and some murmured there way. The rumours went from me kissing Asher to having sex with him so could stop bullying me. Like that would've happen. But the number one question was neither Asher nor Noah was in sight.

Day went by rumours blew up. I'm not even trying to catch up to the new rumours now. I'm tired. It was lunchbreak and I sat at my table alone scrolling through my photography account, yes I do have a photography account. I love clicking photos of the most unplanned things. Random buildings, animals, flowers and everything which genuinely looks good in my eyes.

A loud bang echoed through out the cafeteria made me look up from my phone to find Noah standing by the side of the table. His eyes cascade down, fists balled up into the side like he was holding himself back but from what?

"I'm sorry" he muttered so quietly like he never wanted me to hear it but I did.
