"Noah!" Via almost laughed. Her friend had been down all day because of the quizzes and projects but when she saw Noah her spirits lifted up. Smiling, Jess ran to him while he waited with open arms, his bike behind him.
She went into his arms and he hugged her tightly to him.
"I missed you." Via heard Jess say to him.
"I miss you too love." He replied, kissing her head.
She smiled, truly happy for her friend. But she couldn't help but feel jealous. She was wanted that kind of love. Who wouldn't? Jess looks at Noah like he was her favorite fictional character that turned real and he looks at her like she was responsible for every breathe that he take. Everyone who would see them could tell that they are in love.
She wished for that too. But who would even love her?
"Vivi!" She heard him shout. She rolled her eyes but her lips formed into a smile. The idiot had made her a nickname and she didn't like it one bit. Or maybe she did, but just a bit.
Deciding to get back at him, her brain started forming names for him. And when she came up with a name, she smiled sweetly at him he couldn't help but gave her a suspicious look.
"New!" She saw him stiffened, his eyes wide. She laughed while walking towards him. "You're here." She added, holding her laughter in waiting for his reaction.
"What did you just call me?" He tilted his head to the side, narrowing his eyes at her.
"Uhm guys. We'll go first." Jess interrupted. But she saw the glint in her eyes. They were mischievous. The girl is playing matchmaker, she just knew that.
Via nodded, hugging her friend bye while nodding to Noah as he did the same. Now it was just her and New.
"I asked you a question." Did she ever mentioned about him being hot? Because he sure as hell was. Leaning on his bike, his black button-up shirt folded up to his elbows while he sported a huge scowl on his face.
Circling him, she explained. "Well, since you got me a nickname I figured it would be fair if I gave you one too." She stopped and patted his shoulder with her hand, leaning on him using her elbows. "So where are we off to now, friend?"
He moved away causing her to fall sideways but his arms caught her before it happened. His arms coiled around her waist while looking down at her with those dark eyes that seemed to bottle up all the shadows around them. She gulped. He was so close.
