Chapter 21 - CHAPTER 20

(Scarlett)

"Noha, where are we going?" I asked, giving him a long stare.

"I told you, we are going for a long drive!" He said, with his eyes glued to the roads.

I sighed.

.....

Almost ten minutes later, he pulled the car and directed me to get out.

I was totally confused...

We were at a mountain ledge, with no one around.

Noha held his had with me and gently pulled me towards the edge.

"Noha, what are you doing?" I shout.

"Do you trust me?" He asked me instead.

"Yeah, I do but..."

"Then just do as I say!" He exclaimed, pulling me with him.

"Fine, I'm coming!" I said, carefully stepping on the stones.

Once we were close he asked me to shut my eyes, as I did.

He guided me to the edge...

"Don't freak out, okay? Just enjoy it."

He said while I fluttered my eyes open.

OMG!!!

This is amazing.

I gasp and turned towards him, finding him giving me a goofy smile.

"My mom would always bring me here when I was a kid." He whispered.

God, how did she even find this place? This place is like pure heaven.

We stood at the edge of a ledge, overlooking to a deep Valley, with colourful flowers and a few insects like butterflies dogging around them.

I remember what Aaron had told me about Noha's mother.

I hug him, sideways and muttered...

"You must be coming here, more often?"

He looks down at me and whispered in my hair.

"Only when I feel like, but maybe I just wanted to share this with you!"

I smiled at this, pulling his closer.

.....

"Are you and your step mom close?" I asked, as he drived back to the Wade Mansion.

"Not really, Stella just sticks around for my dad's heavy bank account, she doesn't give a fuck about me, unless she's got some task to do!" Ouch!

That's hurtful.

"And your dad?" I asked.

"He... After my mom died... He couldn't take it and left me here with Stella while he moved to NYC."

"He must be meeting you or talking to you, right?" I asked.

"Not really, I reminded him of my mother, I've got her eyes!" He winked, as I saw him with pity.

How could anyone just abandon their child? I asked myself, but then again, this had happened with me too.

We then maintained our peace on are way back.

.....

Noha dropped me to the mansion and left off, as he said he had to take care of something.

I threw my bad on the living room's couch and headed to the kitchen to grab some drinks and snacks.

We had planned to watch a movie together, all of us even Jasper and Mason.

And they might be here now any minute.

I sorted some pop's and chips into two large bowls and some drinks in the red cups.

I placed them all on the coffee table and went to my room to freshen up.

...

I was pulling my hair into a bun when I heard the door bell and smiled.

Rushing downstairs, Aaron and Jenny had already taken there places on the couch, while jasper and Mason both had pulled out the bin bags and had settled down on it.

It was so good to be with these people, even if I don't really know them.

I took a seat, at the other end of the couch, far from Ron and Jenny. Cause even if they were cute together, I couldn't bare listening to there cringey talks.

We decided to watch the Percy Jackson series, while Ron frowned.

Ron never liked the idea of that movie, he always said that it was too unreal. While I say, is really enthral.

I mean, I was always into greek mythology and this is a movie absolutely about it. Percy Jackson the hafe blood son of Poseidon, the sea god.

The movie was almost over when Noha came through, with someone following him.

By someone, I mean Alana.

I walk over to them, my hands folded across.

"So, this was important task, you had?" I asked, mocking him, while also raising my eyebrows at the stupid girl.

"Kind off." He shrugged.

How dare he! First he was with her, second, he bought her into my house and third, I'm gonna kill them both.

I sighed.

"Why is she here?" I asked, keeping my peace.

"I thought you two can be friends..." Wait, what?

"Noha, she's your ex and I am your present. If you haven't notice, let me make it really really clear, I WILL NOT STAND HER OR HER STUPID FRIENDSHIP, and you better get that!!!" I hissed at him cutting him off of his sentence.

"Scar, just once listen to me, she..."

"No, I want her out of this house...NOW!" I cut him off again.

Noha flinched, at this and glanced at Alana, who was giving this ugly, fake face of innocence.

"Is there something I need to know?" He asked, totally confused with my reaction.

Everyone now in the room seemed uncomfortable.

Ofcourse, nobody had told him about his ex's threats...

Damn them and damn him!!!

"You know what, it's nothing! It's not even you mistake! Cause you were busy, taking your girlfriend, oh no, ex girlfriend out for snacks while I was here banging the table, in annoyance!!!" I screamed out my lungs.

I then went upstairs, to my room and banged the door shut, while Noha stood there, still confused...

God, this might be the worst day of my life.

I screamed into the pillow and then threw it away on the floor.

I had almost fallen asleep when I heard a knock on my door.

I only oped it a little, to check out who was there.

NOHA

I frowned at him, still not completely opning the door.

"What do you want, now?" I asked, with irritation clearly visible on my face.

"Scar, open the door, I just wanna talk!" He whispered, trying to push the door open.

"Well too bad, I don't!" I said, as I tried closing the door, again.

"Scar..." He gave me a warning look.

How dare he! How dare he give me that look, after what happened today!!!

"Noha, I would kindly ask you to get lost!!!" I almost yelled the last two words.

At this, he completely pushed the door, squeezing himself inside and then shutting the door back behind him.

"Now we can talk!!!"

Am I the only one, suffering from this?!?!
