Finally we got a Noah chapter, I missed him so much too!!!!

Noah:

"Okay, Mr. Bracher, We'll discuss that in the friday meeting" I say into the phone talking to my boss. It's been months, it almost feels like a year since I moved here. I hung up and placed the phone on my desk.

I'm not gonna lie, it was so hard at first.

I wanted to call her, to tell her i missed her, but I knew it was not gonna be good for me, She needed to find herself and i didn't want to keep being her punching bag, i didn't want to be hurt by her over and over again. 

We gave it a fair shot, and fate didn't want us together, then we shouldn't be, right?

She couldn't call me since i changed my number to a swiss one, It didn't make sense to keep an american number, Chad told me she had been calling him but i begged him to not give her my number, I was weak, i knew the second i spoke to her, i was gonna give in, and i couldn't, i had just started my work here and i needed to focus and to prove myself. 

I never thought i'd ended up in switzerland, but it has been so amazing, It's pretty cold for my taste, but nothing a good jacket couldn't fix. I sighed standing up from my chair and packing my laptop and my stuff in my briefcase, This job was so different from the one i had at the new york times, It was a research job, and I really could handle my time the way i wanted, it was everything i wanted when i was in new york. 

My phone rings again and i pick it up from my bluetooth headset, as i walk to my house, It's a beautiful day, and i didn't want to miss the few rays of sunshine creeping in. 

"Hello?"

"Hey handsome" She said seductively. 

"Mia, How are you?" I try to sound casual, We've been seeing each other for about 2 months, and even though she wants to go all in, i haven't been able to give myself completely. 

"Oh, nothing much, i was wondering at what time you'll be off work, You could come to my place and we can watch a movie" She says in a cheerful tone.

I chuckled shaking my head "We're not gonna watch a single movie and you know that" I say with a cheeky laugh and she giggles

"Didn't want it to sound too obvious" She giggled and i shook my head biting my lip for awhile. maybe i could come in a few hours, after i take a nap, and relax a little. I'm so tired

"I'll bring take out food, be there at 8, okay?" I tell her softly and she hums in approval

"Okay, hottie, I'll see you later, i'll be waiting in lingerie for you" I chuckled and we closed the call. I reach my building and go to the elevator, I look in the mirror at the beard i've been growing again, shaving it completely reminds me too much of Valerie, and Mia said she likes it a little long, so i just decided to keep it. 

Once i reach my apartment, i walked to the fridge and take a beer out of it, sitting on the living room, and turning on the TV playing The voice America, something to remind me of home. I chuckle and shake my head at their acts and their bad jokes and while i hear some blonde girl singing a ballad i start to doze off in the couch. 

My phone wakes me up and i groan, I swore i had left it on silent. I roll my eyes taking it and looking at the screen, it's an american number, I doubt to take it, but i do anyways since i get calls from my parents and chad from time to time. could be them, or maybe a job offer, those i get a lot too. 

"Hello?" I say placing the phone on my ear. 

"Noah, I'm so glad i can finally contact you" I hear a masculine voice, I know him, but i can't put my finger on it. 

"Who is this?" I ask

"Chris Robins, You've forgotten about me!" He gasps and i sigh when i finally recognize him. I can't deal with whatever Valerie drama he has right now, I'm an addict, and she's my drug, i can't get hung up on her again. 

"Hey, Chris, if this is about Valerie, Please spa--"

"Oh shut up, you dick head" I frown when he said that and shake my head

"WTF? If you're calling just to insult me, call someone else, I don't know what Valerie told you about me but it's a lie, I tried, for so long until i couldn't do it anymore"

"I don't care whatever stupid kid fight you two got going on, this is important, you need to get on a plane right now" 

I huff and cross my arms in front of my chest and i raise an eyebrow. The phone is between my ear and my shoulder

"Ha, as if" i roll my eyes and Chris clearly groans on the other side.

"You either come here or i'll go to switzerland myself and cut your balls off, you hear me?" Chris is quite agressive, he's always playful, i know i'm not being the easiest of persons but he's usually not this snappy

"Okay, and why would i need to go there? I thought me moving here was a clear message that i don't want to know anything about Valerie." 

"I told you i don't care about your little tantrum with Valerie, you two can hate each other and perform a glare contest, i don't care. But you're Damian's last hope" 

"Who is Damian? why would he need me?"  

"YOUR SON! you idiot!" 

In that momment, i felt my world crashing down. Did i hear him say my son needs me? I have a son? how did that happen? 

In my head i start counting the time i've been living here, and it's been 8 months, did valerie get pregnant the last time we... 

oh god, And i've been here all this time avoiding her? It seemed like everything around me had frozen.

"Noah? hello?" 

"Chris, what.. what do you mean i have a son? what's wrong with him? is he okay?" I had so many questions, i remember Valerie and i thinking about calling our kid Damian if he was a boy, i couldn't believe she named him like that, I had so many things in my head, but his health was what worried me the most. 

"He's not, He's got aplastic anemia, the only thing they've been doing is giving him transfusions but they are not working so well anymore... he needs a bone marrow transplant. he's on the donor's list, Valerie is not a match, Danielle is a perfect match but she's too weak and that could kill her, we need you to get here and get tested, doctors said there is a high chance you can be compatible." 

I don't need to hear it anymore and I already stand up from the chair, grab my wallet and my passport, and i walk to the elevator in a rush, my heart was beating out of my chest, and i suddenly felt like my world would end if something happened to that baby... 

...my baby...

"give me 15 hours and i'll be there"

and with that i hung up
