CALL ME BACK? || Noah Centineo AU (3rd Book)

T H I R T Y - S I X

Valerie:

"Yeah, everything arrived yesterday to my new apartment, thank you so much for helping me out, sure thing, i'll pick you and Dumpy at the airport tomorrow, bye bye, take care" I hear Noah on the phone and then he hangs up turning around to Chris and me. We haven't said any more hateful things, but we haven't even talk about us, just the babies. Danielle is in perfect health and Damian should be released today or tomorrow, and i couldn't be more thankful

"Who is coming tomorrow?" Chris asked Noah frowning a little, i wanted to ask too but we aren't in the best place so i just bit my tongue. Noah just shrugged

"A friend from Switzerland. She packed and sent all of my stuff here and also she helped me taking care of Dumpy these days ... she's going to come to bring him here, She said she couldn't just ship him alone on a plane" he places his phone in his jacket and that fucking brown leather jacket looks so good on him i want to punch him.

Also. did i hear him saying 'She'? so a girl went to all the trouble of packing his stuff and also traveling so many hours just to bring Dumpy?

Not gonna lie. I miss dumpy so much, and i am so glad Noah has kept him all of this months, but i feel that little green monster inside of me just to think about that 'friend' he's talking about. Noah has been remarkable at replacing me as fast as possible, and i am pretty sure this time was no exception. Ugh

I wish i could say something, but i have to stay quiet and pretend this doesn't bother me at all

"Are you dating her?" Chris asks him, he's the real MVP, that's why i love him, Noah chuckles and pinches Chris' cheek

"Why? are you jealous?" He said in a mocking like tone and Chris laughed, I know he was asking for me but Noah gracefully dodged his question, that smooth mf...

"Do you want me to come to the airport with you? you know... the ride might be pretty long and I wouldn't want you to be all lonely" Chris asked him and Noah shrugged nodding, I have to stop caring about these things, I have two beautiful babies who are gonna be going home with me soon and i shouldn't even think about Noah's dating life or going to the airport to strangle this girl myself.

"Sure , thanks chris, I know you can't live without me" Noah winked at him and I couldn't help but let out a little laugh, these two always joking with each other, I know Chris would have jumped Noah's bones if noah ever gave him the chance, but it's just how they've acted for years.

"So, I'm gonna go to my apartment to take a shower and then i'll come and take care of the babies for the night, so you can sleep, kay, V?" another thing about Noah is that he started calling me V now, like Chris does, and everyone else does, but it bothers me, He used to say my name was so beautiful and he didn't want to use the short version for it. and now i'm just 'V' for him.

"sure, i'll leave some bottles of milk for you to feed them tonight" I try to fake a smile and Noah smiles back walking out of the hospital and i sigh as soon as he is out of sight.

"Stop mourning" Chris quickly says putting his hand on my shoulder, i've talked about how i've been feeling and basically he told me i had to suck it up because i fucked things up with Noah.

Which i know it's true but i would like my best friend to be a little bit more supportive with me.

"I'm not mourning, but he's bringing a girl from fucking switzerland, Chris, how am i going to feel, huh?" I groan and rest my head in the back of the chair , this is so frustrating, i don't even know how i should feel, i know that i pushed him away and he tried so many times to be with me, but i want him to love me, I have his two babies, for god's sake.
