THIRD PERSON

Noah sat on the edge of the boardwalk trying to distract herself from the fact she was meeting Zach here to break the news to him.

After about 10 minutes Noah heard footsteps approach where she sat. Noah turned around seeing Zach stand in black jeans and black conserve with a black tank top.

"Ok goth boy." Noah joked as Zach smirked making his way down to sit next to her.

"So." Zach said as he leaned on the wood post of the peer.

"I chose." Noah said as she looked up to Zach.

Their hair blew in the wind as Zach squinted slightly

"You brought me here to tell me you chose Brandon." Zach urged as he went to stand up but Noah grabbed his hand

Zach looked down at his hand

"I chose you." Noah replied as tears filled their eyes

"You did." Zach said shock as he sat back down next to Noah

"Thanks you. I won't mess this up. I promise." Zach said tightening his grip on her

"I'm putting everything on the line for this Zach." Noah says putting her head up

"And I won't ruin this." Zach urged as Noah nodded

"Did Brandon take it well." Zach questioned as Noah looked at the wood they sat on

Truthfully Noah didn't want to share details about how she let Brandon down. She felt it was such a personal moment that should stay between them.

FLASHBACK

"So you're just gonna go back to him. After everything he's done to you!" Brandon yelled at Noah making her feel guilt

"First of all do not yell at me. Second of all I'm sorry I chose him but it's my life. Not yours." Noah replied as Brandon rolled his eyes

"Just leave me alone." Noah said standing up and walking away from the table that they sat at.

END OF FLASHBACK

"He understood." Noah said as Zach nodded at her response

"Wanna go back to the house?" Zach asked making Noah nod

"Yeah sure." Noah said as Zach grabbed her hand making her laugh

After that Zach and Noah stayed together for the rest of the weeks they had left before Zach had to leave for his tour. They both were happy for the first time in a while.
