Why Did I Do That?

Noah's POV
I woke up feeling like the worst person on the planet. Who knew breaking someone's heart would make a person feel so guilty. I didn't even bother making an impression on my looks so I brushed my teeth and put my clothes on after I forced myself out of bed. My hair looked a mess and my eyes had bags underneath them. I could barely sleep last night. Just thinking about how much I hurt Cody last night was just too much to handle. I grabbed my keys and books and left my hotel room.

I went down to the restaurant to see every person who had got eliminated except for Eva and Izzy. I overheard Courtney complaining how they got to go back on the show when she had been eliminated off unfairly. I grabbed a plate and got my food. I sat down on the table Cody and I used to sit at. I kept on having flashbacks about him sitting there smiling revealing his cute little gap tooth. Shut up Noah what are you thinking. Cody isn't cute. Is Cody cute? No. No he isn't. Right? Ugh I hate myself. After I ate my food I left the table and walked towards the entrance which was also the exit. As I was walking out Cody was walking in. He looked even worse than I did. "Well no Noah Cody is going to be just great after you ran out of his room when he told you he loved you." I said to myself. He waved at me with no smile. No emotion he just walked past and continued with his day. I don't blame him one bit. I'm so stupid.

I walked out of the restaurant and decided I still wanted to go to the pool. But I was going to try to avoid conversations with anyone. I laid down on my usual sunbathing bed and got out my book and started reading. Harold started walking over to me. "Get the hell away dork I'm not in the mood today. Or any day so just shut up and walk away" I said before he could say anything. Thankfully he took the hint and left. Jesus Christ I must be in a bad mood if even Harold won't talk to me. Oh well that's good news not bad news. I continued reading my book but couldn't stop thinking about Cody. I couldn't help but think of all the memories we had made together. Like when we first met. He got off the boat. He stood there with his long thick brunette hair. His eyes which I could stare at all day. And his cute little gap tooth that made him look like an eight year old. But somehow he still looked cute. It made him even cute than he already was. Then I realised something.

" I Love Cody!" I said to myself.

Oh my god I like Cody! This makes no sense. Well actually now that I think about it. It makes total sense. That's why I always comforted him when he was upset. Or whenever someone had something bad to say to him or did something bad to him I would stick up for him. Even if I had to punch someone in the face. (Which I have no regrets about if you didn't realise already). My heart started beating fast when I saw Cody walk out of the restaurant. I couldn't be in the same room as him. Not yet. I'll turn really awkward if he tries to talk to me. And he doesn't deserve that. I grabbed my books and keys then left the pool.

I got in the elevator and pushed the button multiple times thinking that it would go faster. Which it won't. Thankfully the doors shut before anyone else could get in the elevator. I walked straight to my hotel room and unlocked the door. I put my books and keys on the table and fell onto my bed. Ugh why do relationships need to be so complicated. Whenever I see Cody everything negative that's happening. All of it just goes away. I need to tell him. But I don't know how. I've never had a crush on someone before. I'll tell him later but I'm going to be so awkward about it.

4 hours later

I heard a door outside open then close. I waited a couple of minutes trying to calm down. It didn't work. Just put all your feelings on the table what's the worst that could happen right? Well he could reject you because you were so rude to him last night and then he lost total respect that he had for you entirely. Shut up negative Noah. I got my keys and unlocked the door then left my hotel room.

I knocked on Cody's door "Cody can I please come in." I said. Fortunately he unlocked the door straight away. "Can I come in?" I asked. He nodded his head with no emotion. I walked inside as he laid on his bed. "Cody?" I asked. "Yeah" He responded. "U-Uhm" I struggled to say. "I- uh I need to tell you something" I said pulling myself together halfway through the sentence. "What do you want to tell me Noah?" Cody said as he lifted his head up from despair. "Right uh here it goes" I said. "Cody it's taken me some time to realise this but uhm" I struggled to say. "I love you Cody" I said. Cody looked up and was in disbelief. "And I always have and I don't know why it took me so long to figure it out but I know now and I hope you still like me too" I managed to say putting all my feelings on the table. "Noah" Cody said to me. "Yeah" I said "Will you be my boyfriend?" Cody asked me. I stood there shocked. Do I want to be his boyfriend? Yes. "Of course Cody" I said he then dashed to me and hugged me. I hugged him back and we hugged for 5 minutes.

I can't believe it Cody Anderson is my boyfriend!
