forever/fəˈrɛvə/
For all future time; for always.
Noah's Pov
I've known Finn since I was 11 (I think). I became close to him fast. Filming Season One was great but Season 2 and 3 we became even closer friends. We hung out all the time off screen and it was amazing. I got to know so much about him.
When I was 18 we decided to get a shared apartment in New York. This only made us grow closer, and I thought it was time to tell him my biggest secret I've kept from him.
"Finn?" I asked motioning to the place next to me as I sat shakily on the sofa.
"Hey, what's up!" He asked sitting next to me.
"So I need to tell you something." I whispered really nervous. He nodded wanting me to continue.
"I'm..." I paused. I can't tell him! What will he think? What if he leaves?!
"You're?" He mocked a proud smile plastered on his face.
"Gay..." I mumbled looking down.
"Cool!" Finn said watching me.
"Cool?" I scoffed looking up at him, to notice him smiling.
"Yeah, I mean, I'm bi so..." What?! I did I never know that? I must've had a shocked expression on my face as when I snapped out of my thoughts he was laughing at me.
That night I think was the first night I saw Finn differently.
Months went by and I loved living with Finn but I began feeling differently about him; I think...I liked him? It was a new feeling so I didn't think much of it, but I started catching myself staring at him, and just wanting his touch but he would never feel the same way, we're friends.
Well that's what I thought until the night before my birthday.
"Hey birthday boy!" Finn greeted me, resting his arm on my door frame peering in. I laughed,
"What can I do for you Mr Wolfhard?"
"Open my early birthday present" He happily replied handing me a small box that was wrapped up. I began unwrapping it, I could feel his gaze on me. It was a small black box, I lifted the lid and there was a locket with the initial N on it. I opened up the locket and on the left was the first picture we ever took together and on the right was the one we took the first time we got an apartment.
"Finn..." I admired.
"You like it?" He said nervously biting his lip.
"I love it! Thank you." I exclaimed looking up at him.
"Would you like me to put it on you?" He offered reaching his hand out for the chain. I smiled and nodded handing him the locket and turned around. His soft warm hand brushed against the back of my neck and suddenly butterflies swarmed my stomach. I felt him come closer,
"Done." He whispered next to my ear, I felt his breath brush against me causing the hairs on my neck to rise. I turned back around our noses practically touching he was that close to me. He began to lean in and I quickly copied and finally, until our lips attached. It was a quick kiss but in them 4-5 seconds it felt amazing. I swear fireworks were going off, okay maybe that was a bit of exaggeration but it felt like the kiss you would read in books or see in films.
After that day we soon became boyfriends. However he wanted to keep us secret so I went along with him. However that didn't stop us from going on cute dates every time we got the chance. Life with Finn was fantastic. We were in love and nothing can pull us out of our bubble.
"I love you." Finn whispered.
"I love you too!" I giggled.
"Forever." He promised.
I guess promises don't last. It was our 6 months I was worried. Finn told me to meet him at our restaurant but he was late, 3 hours late. All I could do was sigh and head back to our apartment. He had to be at home; and I was right. He was, but someone else was there too. I saw their shoes, red high heels. I heard voices in our bedroom. I slowly opened the door, why was he in here?
I froze. I couldn't move. My eyes were fixed on him. Him kissing another person, but she wasn't just anyone. Millie. My best friend, my best fucking friend! It took them a second to realize I was there but once me and Finn made eye contact everything changed.
"Noah let me explain!" Finn quickly gasped, guilt clear in his eyes. I shook my head, finally able to look away as the tears fell. I ran to my now old bedroom and slammed the door locking it making sure he could not get in. All night I heard him banging on my door but finally, at around 3am it had stopped and I felt a sense of relief, I could finally let all my tears out.
After about an hour I finally opened my door seeing him asleep on the floor. I sighed and picked him up taking him back to his room and putting him in the bed, wrapping the covers around him. I watched him for a bit, tears yet again filled my eyes, how could he? I bit my lip as only one thought filled my head, I had to leave. I started packing as quickly as I could. I couldn't stay here, not with him. I found my sweater he always loved and left it on the side with a post-it note saying, "I don't know what I did, but I'm sorry." I then gave him one last look and left, not looking back.
That night still haunts me. He promised he would love me forever but I guess it was just a lie. Only 2 weeks after I left Finn and Millie flooded the internet. They announced they had started dating. It was trending all over. I was hurt, but I was also stupid. I actually thought we were forever.
