"I'm fine just go." I tell Noah, I'm still sitting on the ground.

"Really?" I nod, "then get up." He stand up and crosses his arms.

"Yeah, heh, I can do that, no probables at all, just give me a minute" he raises an eyebrow at me.

"Alright you win, I'm not fine." I roll my eyes and lay back in defeat.

"What hurts? He asks, crouching back down.

"I think I twisted my ankle." I say sitting up once again.

"This one?" He touches my hurt foot.

"OW! YES THAT ONE! GOSH!" I yell at him he puts a hand over his mouth.

"Sorry, lets get you home." He helps me up and I limp to his truck with him on my side helping me.

We get in the truck and he drives to my house. Once we're there he takes me inside. The door was unlocked so we walk in and onto the living room.

"MOM!" I yell across the house figuring she's in the kitchen.

"Ye - oh my what happened." She rushes over after walking in on Noah putting my foot on a pillow.

"She twisted it walking, tripped over the sidewalk." Noah says, not giving full details. I'll have to thank him for that later, even though it's probably to cover that he almost ran over me.

"You were always such a clutz." Mom says while going back to the kitchen. She gets back with the first aid kit and ice.

It's about three hours later of just watching tv and chatting here and there. "I need to go but I don't want to leave you alone." Noah says with a... sad look?

"Why do you have to go?" I ask him.

"Um, you know, family stuff." He rubs the back of his neck and looks away.

"Mhm yeah, and what family stuff is this?" I ask with a tone that'll let him know I don't believe him.

"Uhh, family... family game night! Yeah family game night, we do that." He says, not convincing at all.

"Really? What games do you play? I like games" I look at my nails like I'm bored.

"Ugh, I'm not going home. I have stuff to do."

"What kind of stuff." I raise an eyebrow.

"None of your business." He says in a sassy way.

"I deserve to know since you're gonna leave me here with my annoying family and I can't even run away from them."

"You shouldn't run anyways." He says in a 'duh' tone.

"Shut up and just tell me where you're going." He looks away again in thought.

"Out with the gang." He whispers even though I heard him.

"Oh yeah? What are y'all doing?"

"Having a few drinks." He lies. I've figured out how to tell when he's lying. He looks away and up slightly.

"Oh yeah please go. I wouldn't want my injury you caused to get in the way of you underaged drinking with your gang that you seem to always be with. I'll be fine. Maybe I'll go steal the wine out the wine cabinet. Oh wait, I can't! I can't even walk properly."

"Ugh fine! I'm going out to do gang stuff, you know fight and things. Very important!"

"Totally! Just leave me here!" I yell at him. Why am I getting so upset that he's leaving?

"Why are you getting so upset that I'm leaving!" He says why thoughts.

"I don't know! Please just leave already!" I yell again, I should probably calm down before I get to rough with myself.

"Maybe I don't want to now!" Why is he so confusing? He's cute when he's frustrated.

Wait what?

"Why not you we're just leaving!" I stand up on one and a half legs.

"Because I want to stay with you!" He stand up too.

"What the heck do you want from me?" I say softly with a tired look. All this yelling is tiring me out. He's tiring me out.

"I want to kiss you." He says with the softest look in his eyes.

"Hu-" I stop talking when Noah starts moving closer to me. Then everything starts moving slow as I come to realization that he's about to kiss me.

Why? Why me? Why is he about to kiss me? Out of literally every human being on this planet.

By now he's like a centimeter away from my face. He grabs my face in both hands. He looks down at my lips for a split second but I seen it.

We just stand there like that for a few more seconds. Our faces very close, his hands on my face, my hands on his biceps(to keep me from falling, remember? Twisted ankle? Yeah).

Our eyes are connected like both sides of handcuffs, never coming apart.

Then he closes the distance and his lips are on mine. He closes his eyes and when my shock wears off I slightly push him away.

I'm not strong enough to actually move him but it was enough for him to know to back away. I don't know what came over me but I was mad. I'm gonna need him to get away from me before I break down and end up in the hospital again.

"I'm sorry, I should go." He says and rushed out the door. I sit back on the couch, eyes still slightly wide from a minute ago.

"MOM!" I yell for her to come here.

"Yes honey?" She rushes in.

"Can you help me to my room please?" I'm still looking forward, not wanting to look at her, at anyone. I may be over reacting a bit but leave me be. I'm on my period if you can't tell.

"Is something wrong? Did Noah leave?" She asks coming closer.

"I'm just tired," I pause, "and he had better things to do." I didn't mean for it to sound rude but it kinda did. Oh well.

"Sure thing honey." She says so nicely. I start to stand and she helps me.

When we get to my bed I sit down. "Thanks mom."I look at her and tell her with a smile.

"Anything for you." She smiles back and leaves my room, shutting the door behind her. She's a great mom.
