Dreaming of you keeps me asleep, thinking of you keeps me awake, and being with you keeps me aliveChapter FourteenN O E LNow one thing my family knows about me is that although I'm not a heavy sleeper, I'm not a light one either. My body wakes when it times, according to my alarm. I can be lazy about waking up but I know when I definitely shouldn't wake up. I shouldn't wake up before my alarm but why was somebody not getting this."Leave me alone," I grumble swatting my arm at the unwanted disturbance before rolling to the other side of my bed."Wakey wakey," I heard someone sing before I start feeling something crawling on my body, legs, rough skin...."Ahh!" I jump up the bed with a scream shaking my legs repeatedly, and trying to brush off any predator. I stop when my head start aching from all my screaming and also because someone was laughing on the floor of my room.I recognize the laughter and I look down to see Aaron laughing his ass off, sitting on the floor and clutching
~I'll rather spend one lifetime with you than face all the ages of the world alone.~//Chapter Fifteen\\Noel's POVSo, Friday evenings my time to rest, reflect on the tiresome school week, sleep and marathon on different games. But sadly this wasn't happening, all my usual plans wasn't happening instead here I was this lovely evening sitting on my bed, leg and hands crossed, frowning and shooting dagger glares at the two morons in my room."This one?""No too shabby.""This, its sexy.""Gah, her boobs will be all be out.""Ok just band T-shirt then?" Jesse asked clearly tired of going through my closet."Cute shirt," Aaron says dangling a below the waist grey shirt that had a star decorations at a corner. One of my favorite shirts."Hmm nice," Jesse said smiling, "we could pair it with this ." he lifted a black leggings that was just right."Yep perfect, with this heels." He brought out black pumps, he carried the outfits and placed them on my bed neatly arranged. "Aren't we missin
~I am much more me when I'm with you.~//Chapter Sixteen\\Noel's POV"What do you want?"She smirked walking towards me, I didn't falter in my stance or betray any look of intimidation. As usual she looked beautiful in really short black leather skirt and a pink top, her hair curled richly, topped off with killer heels, she had two girls beside her all giving me the stink eye. I recognized the ebony haired girl as the one who made out with Aaron by his locker. "I just want to know your deal with Aaron?""Why? Why does Aaron concern you?" I asked."We're the ones asking the question here newbie," the strawberry blond hair girl spat out glaring at me."Well I didn't come here for an interview," I retorted back, looking at the blond bitch."AL and I...we have some kind of close relationship. Your turn," Quinn replied. I decided to just answer them so they'll let me be, our little confrontation was becoming annoying.I sighed, "Aaron and I have no relationship, we just talk and sometim
~I never want to stop making memories with you.~//Chapter Seventeen\\Noel's POVMy eyes flutter open then close back, I roll on my comfortable bed but it seems my body has had enough sleep. I smell coffee and I open my eyes again, this time they say open, I sit up and yawn stretching like a cat in heat. "That's weird," I say referring to my closed tight curtain. My room was completely dark not even a peek of sunlight was coming through. I reach to the side to turn on my lamp but it isn't there anymore, I hit my bedside searching for it but its gone. Who took it? Mum?I'm about to make my way down and find the door through the darkness but some bright light suddenly shines directly on my face. I scream at the sudden direct light, using my hand and leg as shield to protect my face. Almost immediately a wicked headache hits me like a fucking Brick on the head."Ow, not cool." I say holding my head and closing my eyes from the blinding light, it was bright and big like car headlights

~There's no substitute to a great love which says 'No matter what's wrong with you, you're welcome at this table'.~//Chapter Eighteen\\Noel's POV"I'm famished," I complained stopping my legs from moving any further."But we just got here." Aaron said turning to look at me."Uh," I checked my invisible wrist watch, "We've been here for 6 hours."Aaron rolled his eyes checking his gold Rolex wrist watch. Ofcourse if he doesn't have a gold Rolex wrist watch, who would?. "Nope, we've been here for just two hours.""Yes, two hours of walking non stop browsing through shops and coming out because of your fashionista picky self." I said annoyed.He frowned at me, I frowned back. It became a frowning battle and when he saw I wasn't giving up anytime soon, he relented. "Ok, 30 minutes break."My lips shaped into a broad smile, finally more food for me. I grabbed unto his hand excitedly. "Let's go, You're paying." It wasn't until we were already moving that I noticed that I was holding ont

~All of everything I understand, I only do because I love you.~//Chapter Nineteen\\Noel's POV.Hi love, hope you had a goodnight sleep. I woke up early and didn't want to wake you up since you look so cute while sleeping. See you in school and don't be late.PS: I ate the pie in the fridge. Hehe.I smiled reading the note that was left on my bedside. I woke up alone on the bed a bit disappointed but this makes up for it. Wait what? "He ate the last pie?!!!""Good morning Mum," I say entering the kitchen where coffee was brewing."Noel, I got a job!" My mum screamed threatening the safety of my ear drums."Really?" I asked putting my finger into my ear and shaking off the little scream effect.She nodded really hard I was scared her head would roll off. "Yesterday I got a job, I came home to celebrate with you last night but you weren't at home."I gasped surprised, "I'm sorry mum I went out. We can celebrate this night. We should celebrate! I can't believe you got the job at last!
Tears shed for another person isn't a sign of weakness. Its a sign of pure heart~//Break up\\Noel's POV."Go to sleep Aaron.""One more minute.""You said that," I removed the phone from my ear and checked the time, gasping in surprise, "An hour ago!""Shut up, its not 3am." I didn't say anything, I heard some shuffling from the other side and I also heard him gasp, "Wow, it is."I chuckled, "I don't know about you Aaron but I'm going to be extra bitchy tomorrow if I get no sleep.""Bitchy huh?" He said in his flirty voice."Uh uh you won't like bitchy Noel. You should be glad you've never met her," I say.He scoffed, "I like all kinds of Noel. And I've so met the bitchy you. Remember one time in Chem Class? I pulling all my Razzle-dazzle Aaron charms on you and you were like, 'leave me alone. I'm not talking to you. Move the hell out of my way'". He said, the last part being an intimidation of an annoying high pitch voice.I sat up on my bed my jaw hanging open. "I wasn't being bi
🎄|Christmas Special|🎄A/N: This is the Christmas part of this Novel, full scene in Aaron's POV. My Christmas gift to you all. In Chapter 41, I briefed through the Christmas period in Noel's POV, but now I'm giving the full 25th December event, in Aaron's POV so.....Yay. I hope you like it.[]Aaron's POVMerry Christmas babeI texted Noel at soon as the clock truck 12, I rubbed my eyes smiling. I've been waiting for my clock to show 00:00 so I'll be the first to wish my love a merry Christmas.Did you get the text?Are you even awake?Dolphin???Oh come on!Babe? Noel?I frowned at my phone glaring at it as if it's Noel herself. She was asleep that's why she's not replying my messages. How could she sleep this early? I mean tomorrow is Christmas. I've got to be the first to wish her, if she doesn't see my text, someone else might beat me to it.Jumping off my bed, I exchanged my plaid pajama pants for a black Jean and pulled on a red shirt. Grabbing my jacket, I ran my fingers throu
~When I say I love you more, I don't mean I love you more than you love me. I mean I love you more than the bad days ahead of us, I love you more than any fight we will ever have. I love you more than the distance between us, I love you more than any obstacle that could try and come between us. I love you the most.~//Epilogue\\Noel's POVOne thing I hate about airports, they are always crowded. One thing about me I hate crowded places....but I think we already know that.Flying on first class is really nice, I got to sit on my own in a really comfortable seat although I was lonely I think flying to Virginia with Aaron ruined every flying experience I would ever have. Now I'll rather fly with him seating beside me than to fly alone. Playing games helped but there's just so much company a video game can give.After going through all the hateful aspects of flying alone which includes coming down alone, getting my luggage alone and squeezing past different people of different race, t
~I realized I was thinking of you, and I began to wonder how long you'd been on my mind. Then it occurred to me: Since I met you, you've never left.~//Chapter Forty-five\\Noel's POVI've learned something, so many things actually since I came to New York. I learned how to make friends, I learned how to tolerate my mum better than I did before, I learned how to let go of certain things, I also learned how to love a really good looking, egoistic, narcissistic funny jerk. I guess I've always known how to stand up for myself, I don't like being looked down upon by anyone especially my age mate, I don't like bullying and I never let myself get bullied by anyone. I've always been that girl that would fight back knowing that I wouldn't lose much in any fight. But I learnt something new, something really important, something I know would help me in the remaining dash days, months, years of my life; not every fight is worth it. Not every fight is won and sometimes its better easier and saf
~Love is something sent from heaven to worry the hell out of you.~//Chapter Fourty-four\\Noel's POV"Tyler leave me alone, I did nothing to you.""Didn't you hear me? You cheated." He said stepping forward with his two goons."Quinn did too and you most definitely helped her. I got a bruise to show for it." I said pointing to the bruise by my eyes as I back away.Lord, where is a sledge hammer when you need one."Doesn't matter, nobody makes my girl fail." He said still advancing towards me."She's not your girl. At least not to her. She likes Aaron, that's why she hates me. I did nothing to her. She's just using you." My heart was hammering so loud, I could hear it instead of my voice.How far was Aaron? How close was anybody, if I scream now would I be heard? Mirror. Yes my mirror! That's a nice weapon that can inflict a lot of pain— to one person though I'm not sure about three."Shut the fuck up! And stop backing away, there's no way you're escaping this locker room.""What ar
~Love is a smoke and its made with fumes of sighs.~//Chapter Fourty-Three\\Noel's POV"You did what exactly?"I sighed, "I. Made. A. Deal. With. Quinn." I repeated for the fourth time in the last thirty minutes."No no no," Aaron says waving his hand like he's in a building of fire calling for someone's help. "I know what you did, but what did you do?"I look at him like he's a lunatic which he kinda is. Sighing—again— I repeated everything understanding his lunatic talk, "I made a deal with Quinn and we decided to have a swimming contest. If she loses she apologises on her knee and if I lose— which I won't— I'll leave. Back to California.""One day," Jesse says as he stops hitting his head on Aaron's cupboard, "One day we leave you in school alone and you ran off into the sunset doing stupid things!""How could you Noel?" Aaron asked squeezing the fluff out of his pillow.I got off the ground, "You guys should chill ok? And its not a stupid deal," I said turning to glare at Jesse
~Love is quivering happiness~ //Chapter Fourty-Two\\ Noel's POV The first day of school after winter break, it feels a little foreign getting out of bed early and going to school making sure not to trip on the slippery floor and seeing remains of snow everywhere. I'm sure it would snow again today, and that's just great but I'd prefer it to be snowing while I'm tucked safely under my blankets in my really warm room. I yawn by my locker before opening it to get my books in. "Are you sleepy or really hungry?" "Both." I answered before turning to face the person that's talking to me. A smile plasters my face as I hug her. "Oh Nadine you're back." "Yup, missed me?" She asked hugging me back. "Yea ofcourse, you didn't say when you were coming back." I said pulling away. "Well I returned last night and I wouldn't miss school for anything." She says. "Weirdo, I'll totally miss school without an excuse. How's your relationship with the gardener's son?" I asked. "There was no 'relat
~I hope you know that every time I tell you to get home safe, stay warm, have a good day, or sleep well what I am really saying is I love you. I love you so damn much that it is starting to steal other words' meanings. ~//Chapter Forty-One\\Noel's POVThe rest of the days went by wonderfully, Aaron and I were back together. Mum went on a winter break from work too and so far she didn't burn down our kitchen or any other part of the house. Peyton came visiting a lot, turns out she has major problems with her mom and sometimes can stand being in the same house together. I think her mom's a drug addict, I'm not really sure but Pey seems really sensitive about any topic regarding her mother so I don't ask anything. Anyway I love that we're spending so much time together. Raymond came to apologize and I accepted his apology but begged him to stay away from me in the mean time. Turns out Aaron told the Taxi man to drop him off beside a garbage dump out of town. Can you imagine?I also g
~Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused." ~//Chapter Forty\\Noel's POVI couldn't sleep, I wasn't crying I was just feeling confused and wrecked all over. My eyes were open staring into the darkness of my room. Were Aaron and I over? He would surely break up with me today as soon as the sun comes out. But I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't even kiss Raymond back, he kissed me! Without my consent. I sighed falling back on my bed relaxing my head on my headboard. The problem or little flaw of Aaron is that he always acts on his emotions. If he's angry, he's angry no matter what for that period of time he's going to be really angry even though it's uncalled for and he does the first thing that comes to his mind; punch the other person, or walk away and avoid the problem. Avoid me, without trying to be in the next persons shoes.He's going to
