If Tomorrow Doesn't Come

Chapter Eight: I'll Be Your Saftey

(Haley's P.O.V)

After getting through sixth period I ran straight to the gym to make sure everything was in place but there was no need to worry because Brittany had everything under control.

"Relax Hale's your starting to breathe all weird it's like being around you after you just got hugged by Paul Walker or Chris Pine" She told me and I laughed trying to calm down.

"Sorry I just want this go well you know all our past pep rally end in fights or a riot" I told her sating a seat on the first bleacher.

"Yeah well not this year and if it does we'll just say we had nothing to do with it if you say I did i'll deny it like there's no tomorrow" She replied pointing her finger at me and I laughed.

"okay okay, what time is it?" I asked her standing up.

" One forty five which means that bells about to ring and it's show time" She said looking around as the school's marching band, cheerleaders, and football team were coming in.

"Okay I'm gonna go to my locker and get my things I'll be back" I told her hurrying out the door and to my locker. Once my combo was in I began grabbing my books for my weekend homework and stuffed it all in my bag. I pulled my coat out and tossed it over my right arm and shut my locker locking it up. When I turned around my heart nearly jumped out my chest because Noah was standing behind me and I smiled.

"Holy crap you scared me" I told him walking around him making my way back to the gym.

"I'm sorry but I wanted to see if you would like to take a ride with me?" He asked and I stopped and looked back at the gym door.

"I don't know skipping pep rallies are still considered cutting school and where are you going?" I asked him and he just smiled.

"No one will ever and you'll just have to wait and find out when we get there" He replied walking out the school doors and I smiled and stood there alone like an complete idiot. It didn't take me long to go running after him and when I made it outside he was sitting on the bench waiting.

"You knew I'd come didn't you?" I asked him making my way over to his car.

"Yup it was hard not hearing you run down the hall like a maniac" He said following behind me and getting in to the car.

"i was not running like a maniack... I was just walking... really really fast" I lied as we pulled out of the school's parking lot.

"Oh sure whatever you say" He said almost in mocking way making me laugh and punch his arm. We drove for a while and the sun decided to come out so Noah had put the top back and little strands of my hair blew from my braid and I smiled.

"So are you gonna tell me where we're going yet?" I asked watching the trees as we drove by them and they seemed like a blur.

"Yup look ahead of you" He said and I looked forward to see a huge  water fall and I smiled getting excited.

"No way! This is Niagara Falls! how'd you know to bring me here!?" I asked nearly jumping out the seat.

"You told me how much you enjoyed this place with your mom last night and how you haven't been here in a while so I thought what could be more important then seeing it?" He said and I looked at him.

"Um school?" I said grinning as we parked.

"Oh okay well we can turn around and go back if you want" He said and I smiled and got out.

"No no no!" I said running up to the railing and looking over as the water pummeled to the bottom. I smiled and closed my eyes as the wind blew water against us.

"This has always been the most amazing place ever" I said turning to face Noah and he smiled taking off his jacket.

"Yeah it is but it's better when you live a little on the risky side" He said as he began taking off his shoes and shirt.

"Wha-What are you doing?" I asked him and he pulled off his pants and got up on the rail.

"I'm living a little!" He said and I looked up at him and held my cheeks.

"Oh my god! are you crazy?! It's cold and someone could catch us! isn't this against the law or something?" I asked all at once and he shrugged smiling bigger then ever.

"Probably but there's no one out here come on!" he said and I looked around to see if there was anyone around and just my luck there wasn't. I smiled and took a deep breath and stripped down to my panties and bra and climbed up on the rail along side him.

"Dear lord I'm gonna die it's so high up" I cried trying not to panic and Noah grabbed my hand.

"i got you I won't let anything happen to you I promise" He said and I believed him.

"Okay on three" I said clenching his hand tightly and he smiled.

"One"

"Two"

"Three" we both said together as we jumped off the rain and down into the freezing water. When we hit the water Noah made sure to keep hold of my hand so I wouldn't go to far under and it was fairly easy to swim up to the surface.

"Jesus Crist it's frezzing!' I cried and Noah laughed as he helped me swim out . When we were on land i shivered so much I thought I'd freeze and brake apart. 

"How are we suppose to get back up there?" I asked shivering like crazy and he smiled and wrapped his arms around me. I had never been this close in touch with a guy before and it kind of scared me but in all honestly I liked it.

"You'll see" He said looking up and before I knew it we were lifted off the ground, in the air, and back over the rail where we started. Noah was obviously not cold at all and we hurriedly picked up our clothes and ran back to the car. I shivered and my teeth chattered against one another and I thought it was probably annoying but I couldn't help it. When we were in the car safely Noah blasted the heat and wrapped his jacket around me.

"I have to admit that was way more fun then the pep rally probably would have been" I told him and he smiled.

"Good at least I know you'll take more risk now" He said and I nodded in agreement.

"That was probably the biggest risk Ive ever taken in my entire life" I told him truthfully as I rubbed my hands together to get them warm. He must have saw how I was struggling because he grabbed my hands in his and blew his warm breath on them.

"Well maybe you'll learn to take even bigger risk" He said looking at me and I smiled trying to to look at him but our faces were so close it was hard to. I was probably smiling like a huge goof ball but I couldn't help it.

What is this feeling I'm feeling?
