-Chapter 31

We were just about to go to sleep when my phone rang again, Who on earth is ringing me at this time of the night. I looked at Niall and he shrugged as I grabbed my phone from the bedside table.

It was Noah.

I quikly answered it and pressed the phone to my ear. "Hello?" I said.

"Where the fuck have you been?" Was shouted into my ear.

"Noah, please." I sighed.

"No, you can't just leave, not say goodbye and totally ignore my calls." He said, obviously irritated.

"Noah, I would of returmed them but I never had the time now, I got a new job and I literally have no time."

"Bullshit, you could find time to send me one lousy text message." He snapped. "You think you are something now because you're going out with Niall Horan. don't you? You think you're better than everyone else."

"What? No, I do not think I am better than everyone else." I said. He couldn't have picked a worse time to call me, could he have?

"Yes you do, I am a nobody now you have Niall." He said.

"It was my birthday and you didn't even say happy birthday or anything." I fired back.

"I had a present for you if you had of bothered to text me back." He said.

"You never fucking messaged me." I yelled and Niall put his hand on my shoulder and told me to calm down.

"I did, check your messages."

"Noah, I got no messages from you, if I had of I would of replied but I didn't." I defended.

"Whatever." He sighed.

"Noah, seriously, this is a bad time, can we like meet up tomorrow or something?" I asked him.

"Of course this is a bad time, whatever, just don't call me anymore because I don't think I can stand to be around you, you've changed." He said.

"No I haven't and sure when you went to college you barely messaged or phoned me and it was basically me holding this friendship together with the ends of my fingernails." I said.

"Whatever then, we've both changed." He sighed.

"Can we please meet up and sort this out?" I asked him.

"Not now anyways."

"Noah, I'll be gone in a few days again and God only knows whe I'll be back again. so we need to do this soon." I said.

"Just forget about it, I know you don't need me now you have Niall anyways, I'm just a nuisance." He sighed.

"No you're not, you're the best friend I have ever had." I told him.

"Yeah, that's where you went wrong." He said.

"What do you mean?"

"We could have been more than friends but you know what, it doesn't even matter, let's just drop this whole thing and forget about it and pretend we dodn't know each other." He said, making my heart shatter.

"No Noah, I want you in my life."

"It's a little late for that now, you have Niall now anyways so what does it matter." He said.

"Are you jealous?" I asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, maybe I am but that's irrelevant now anyways and so am i." He said and hung up. I tried phoning him back but he wouldn't answer and it just ended in me in a fit of tears, crying in Niall's arms. I knew he heard the whole thing because with my stupid old phone the speaker is loud.
