Trouble | Noah Beck

E I G H T

"what do you mean you don't know?" you ask.

you had asked what you guys were, and all he did was reply with a simple "i don't know" , it kind of angered you, after all that, thats all he had to say. you weren't expecting him to say that you were dating, but you wanted something .

he stayed silent, "do you not care or want to be with me" you say swinging your feet. he avoids looking at you.

he continues not saying a word, "okay then , well i'll just go-" you try squeezing your legs shut at an attempt to leave. but he places both of his hands on your thighs, gripping and keeping them in place.

"don't go.... please" he says looking up at you. you never thought he'd be the fuckboy begging you not to leave, it caught you by surprise.

he kept his grip on your legs, he looks as if he's about to say something before he just falls into your arms, you hear him sobbing slightly . he had his arms around you, holding you tightly. you didn't know what to do.

you eventually wrap your arms around him as he cried.

"noah... what's wrong" you say quietly, your fingers running through the back of his hair.

"i don't know how to love Denali, im not...... good for you. you deserve someone who isn't going to cause you trouble and pain" he says pulling away from the hug.

you couldn't believe what you were hearing, was he leaving you? we didn't even get to date!

"w-what are you saying?" you say feeling your heart sink.

he sniffles, "we shouldn't start dating, or be friends.... i dont want to hurt you" he says wiping away tears.

you feel yourself break.

"noah , are you serious? you're never going to talk to me ever again? just like that." you say with your shaky voice, you feel tears well up in your eyes.

"Denali, we can never be together... just like you said. it would never work." he starts acting more demanding. different than how soft he was before.

"that was before everything Noah, i just-" your voice shakier than before.

"why don't you go sleep around with another guy who you actually want to be with" he says, looking away from you.

why was he acting like this? and all of a sudden?

"what- why are you being like this?- you know what.. fuck you. i should've listened to Marilyn" you push him away from you, jumping off the sink counter and walking out of the bathroom in tears.

"cry me a river, you know we only hung out for the sex. which was mediocre sweetheart." he follows you downstairs.

you turn around facing him, "i fucking hate you Noah Beck" with that you walk out of the door, slamming it behind you.

Noah's POV

she walked out of the door, shutting it roughly as she left, it was done.

*flashback*

you and Denali were driving home from the game when you get a message notification from an unknown number.

Unknown: break off whatever you have going on with Denali Ortiz.
Noah: who the fuck are you?
Unknown: you don't need to know, but do what i said or i'll make her life a living hell.
Noah: don't get near her.
Unknown: woah there, don't threaten me.. i'll do way worse than what i have in mind if you don't do what i've asked.

i shut off my phone, putting it back in my pocket and looking over at Denali. she looks back at me and smiles. fuck, i care about her so much, i need to do this.

*end of flashback*

the pain it caused you to say those things to her was unbearable.

you pull out your phone texting the anonymous number.

Noah: its done.
Unknown: good boy... you follow directions well. now stay away from her.
Noah: why are you doing this
Unknown: i have my reasons, goodnight.

Denali's POV

you ran out the door in tears, heading straight for your car.

why now? why would he lead me on just to drop me in a matter of seconds. you hated him , you felt the urge of getting revenge.

you pull out your phone, clicking on a specific profile and hitting the button that read "follow"

you started following @graysondolan

you set your phone down in peace. with a devilish smirk planted on your face as you drove away from Noah's house.
