The Mighty I

Chapter Sixteen

I spent the next month working and concentrating on school. Noel and I hadn't talked or texted at all since spring break and I told myself it was for the best. The more I thought about him, the more I found myself regretting that I had ever met him. I still missed him though. Besides the great sex, I missed just being in contact with him. He could always brighten my day and make me laugh with a text. 

Peter had texted me a couple weeks ago and we texted almost every day now. He kept my mind off Noel, at least temporarily, and he was pretty funny and charming himself. Plus, he was single. We even made plans to meet at "Club Paradise" in July and I planned on going with or without an invite from Noel and Sara. I wasn't even sure if they were still planning on going. 

I was in my dorm room one afternoon, sitting on my bed texting Peter, when I heard a knock. I looked up at my open door and my heart nearly stopped. Noel stood in the doorway. I just stared at him for a second then stood up and walked over to him. 

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

He didn't say a word. He took a few steps and pressed his lips against mine. Our tongues met as we kissed then he pulled back. 

I looked at him in confusion.

"I've spent the last month trying to forget you, but I fuckin' can't." He said.

I just stared at him. I couldn't get any words to come out.

We kissed some more then he pulled away again and looked into my eyes. 

"I knew I was fucked the day you sent me that message on Instagram."

We looked at each other and smiles slowly spread on our faces then we started kissing again. I pulled away and looked at him. I was still shocked he was here. 

"I missed you." I finally managed to speak.

"Yeah?"

I nodded and we both grinned.

"I fuckin' missed you too."

Our lips were together again and he pushed us back until we were standing in front of my bed. We separated as we both climbed on top and quickly undressed. Without hesitation, we started having sex. It was a quick, rough fuck that left both of us out of breath and sweaty, but satisfied. We laid catching our breath then I turned to look at him.

"I thought I would never see you again."

"Well here I am." He smiled.

"Here you are." I grinned back.

We both got dressed and sat on my bed talking. My phone dinged and I picked it up. It was a text from Peter. I turned my volume off and set my phone down.

"How long are you staying?" I asked Noel.

"A few days. I have a room at the Ritz if you want to come stay with me."

"Really? Of course I want to. That sounds amazing!"

He chuckled at my excitement.

"Ok. Let's go."

He stood and I quickly packed some clothes in my bag and we left. 

We went up to room 326 and went inside. I set my bag down then jumped onto the bed. 

"I love this bed!" I grinned at him. 

He smiled and came over and laid next to me. 

My smiled faded as I thought about his wife.

"What did you tell Sara?"

His smile faded too.

"I told her I was doing some recording in LA."
