(JAEDEN'S POV)
The sun glares through the window, I wake up and check the time on my phone, 11:34 it reads. What a night last night, it was the first time that i've genuinely enjoyed myself in months, my first kiss, my first hint of love, Noah Schnapp. Oh shit i've got his number now, I thought to myself I knew I had to text him immediately, we were texting for hours and I just knew I had to meet up with him again. We said we'd meet up at Burger King in half an hour, I spent every last second that I could making sure I looked as good as possible for him. Burger King was only a 5 minute walk from my house so I quickly headed off, once I got inside he was already waiting for me, He looked incredible and was dressed extremely casual with a hoodie, shorts and socks/slides. I sat down next to him and we started chatting away just like we did when we were texting, I felt some great chemistry with Noah and he made me feel good when I was around him, all the depression and mental health just seemed to disappear around him. After chatting for a bit we both ordered our food and munched it down, I ate quite a bit more then him, but he is really skinny, i mean so am I, i've just got a really good metabolism. Once we finished he invited me around to his house for the night, he quickly drove me home, I grabbed some clothes, a phone charger, just a tiny bit of alcohol and we were off. Once we drove to his house it really hit me how big his house was, my house wasn't small being 2-story and all but his was like a full on mansion. It was 3 or 4 stories but I couldn't really tell from the outside, "you coming in or what" Noah said as he scnapped me out of his gaze, "yeh just a bit shocked at the size of it", "that's what she said, he replied with, we both chuckled and walked in. Somehow this place was even bigger on the inside as we walked up the stairs into it's room, it was bigger then my lounge, it had a massive King size bed, a couch in the corner and a 60inch curved flat screen tv at the end of his bed, the room was littered with posters of his favourite movies as well as an on-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. This guy lives like a king and I had a feeling that I was really going to enjoy tonight, "pretty cool aye" he said, obviously excited to show me the room, "hell yeah" I replied equally as excited. It was already 7:30 so me and him decided that it would be good to watch some movies to settle down tonight, I found out that both his parents were away on a work conference for the next week so there was nobody at the house except his twin sister who liked to keep to herself. "so what do you wanna watch" he asked, "I dunno, umm, what about Gladiator", "ohh a classic", both of us being film junkies, we sat on his bed and watch Gladiator for the next 3 hours. Once it was over we chatted about the movie for a bit, it was roughly 10:30 when I decided to bust out the alcohol, I could tell that Noah was a bit timid, it was obvious he hadn't been drunk before. After we drank for a bit we decided to put on the The Room, for the next 1 hour 40 minutes we were laughing our asses off and getting pissed. Once the movie was over we turned off the lights and had a bit of real talk. "Hey Jae, thanks so much for being my friend, i've never really had any before and you have made me feel really good today", that was so great to hear with how my life was spiralling downhill before I met him, I went to respond to him, but before I could his lips crashed onto mine. This kiss was way better than the one last night, it lasted for so long and we got a bit of tongue action in. After it was over we started cuddling and fell asleep into the night, holding each other in our arms.
Once morning came and I woke up, I noticed that the grip between our cuddle had tightened and he was nice and snug in my arms. I just sat there for the best part of an hour in his arms trying not to wake him up, until he finally started to wake up, "good morning beautiful" he whispered to me, "morning to you hottie" I whispered in reply. Once he both woke up, showered and got dressed for the day we headed downstairs to make breakfast and he both decided on pancakes. Making them was a disaster and they tasted like shit but I couldn't care less, all I could care about was spending time with Noah. After the breakfast disaster I decided that Noah should meet my friends Finn and Jack so at around 1ish we headed off the Finn's house, where of course Jack was too. Once we arrived at Finn's we raced up the stairs to meet him and Jack, "oh look it's Jae's new boyfriend" Noah and I both blushed at Finn's comments. Noah got on really well with Finn and Jack, they both said he was exactly like me, that's probably why we seem to mesh so well. Noah and I stayed at Finn's all night just drinking and chatting, it was almost as if God decided that after the months of shit I had been through that he would give me three of the best nights in my life. I could just tell that these holidays were going to be incredible and that my life actually might be turning for the better.
