Bondi Rescue Imagines - BOOK 3

Noah - stronger

Your POV:
My phone began to buzz. I looked over seeing Noah's contact pop up. I answered.

You.
Noah.

Hey Noah you ok?
No not really. I'm having a really bad day and just wanted to hear your voice.
Aww, I'm sorry to hear that. Do you want me to meet you after work?
That would be great y/n. Thank you.
Anything for you Noah.
I'll meet you outside the tower at 5.
Definitely see you then.
Bye.
Bye.

We hung up and I began to get myself ready. I got in my car and drove down to the beach.

It was now 5pm and I was waiting for Noah. He soon walked out of the tower head hung low. I sighed. It broke me to see my best friend hurting. "Hey." He said softly as he approached me. I opened my arms so we could hug. "Hey. You ok?" I asked softly. Noah shook his head. "Don't really want to talk about it." He mumbled. "Let's go back to mine and we'll talk. How does that sound?" I asked. "Good." He mumbled. We walked to my car and got in before I drove us back to mine.

The two of us walked inside and headed to the sofas. We got comfy. "Now what's up Noah?" I asked looking over at him. He sighed. "Just today really I think." He mumbled. "Noah can I be honest with you?" I asked. "Yes of course." He said turning to me. "I've noticed that you haven't been yourself. You seem so down. I noticed a few days ago but I didn't say anything because you might it have been ready to talk about it. You probably feel that way now but I want you to know that I'm all ear in this conversation right now so take as long as you need to tell me." I explained making him shake a little as I noticed from his hands.

The tears formed in his eyes. "I-I don't know anymore. I'm trying so hard to keep it together at work and around my mates. The thoughts run through my mind like crazy and it's hard to control. I take breaths in and out but they get stuck sometimes. Today was the worst. It was my breaking point. Nothing was going right. The rescues failed and it wasn't going the way I wanted it too. I generally thought I was going to quit but I can't it's my dream to be a lifeguard so obviously I stayed." He explained. "Noah. You're going to get days like this. I know this sounds so cheesy but I go by this so bare with me on this. Life is like a rollercoaster. You have your ups and downs and you have your loops of absolute happiness then it comes down. Life is like that unfortunately but you'll get through that part of life with the right people." I explained.

I could see he was cringing. "I know exactly what you're thinking about that." I chuckled. "Why is life so hard? I just don't get it. Oh how I wish I had a life like yours." He said fiddling with his fingers. "You don't, trust me." I told him. "All I do is try." He mumbled. "And that's all you can do Noah. Nobody is perfect." I said. His cheeks were tear stained.

I rubbed his back. "I'm sorry you have to see me cry. You probably think I'm some baby or something." He said wiping his tears. "It's not bad to cry. In fact I think it makes a person stronger." I told him. Noah chuckled a little as he wiped his tears. "You're more than welcome to cry. It doesn't mean you're weak. It's ok to cry. If you need a shoulder to cry on I'm here for that. You can let your emotions go." I said making him smile. "Thanks y/n. What would I do without you?" He said making me smile. "You'll probably be lost I would imagine." I said as we laughed together.

For the rest of the evening we chilled out together watching movies and having an occasional cry. It's ok to cry.

A/n: I literally have no motivation lol
