Noel finally messaged you a few hours later about the details of your date with Jason that was going to happen over the weekend. You were going to meet him and Jason outside the café on campus.
The next three days flew by and in those three days you learned a lot about Jason from Noel. Frankly you were getting less and less interested in Jason as Noel told you about him.
Y/N: So tell me about Jason! What does he like to do? What are his hobbies?
Noel: Oh well he loves to party!
Y/N: Seriously…. I hate parties! Give me a quiet night in my dorm with a glass of wine and a good book!
Noel: I completely agree with that one except I’ll take some beer and video games ;)
Y/N: Well you can have your beer I’ll drink my wine and we can play Super Smash Brothers! Deal?
Noel: OMG that is my perfect date right there!
Y/N: Ha! Then I should be dating you not Jason….
Noel: Shhhhhh don’t say stuff like that…. You know we can’t be doing this…..
Y/N: I am sorry it’s just so hard to ignore this after you told me you like me too Noel…. All I think about is you…. I honestly have no interest in Jason….
“Fuck…. I can’t do this…. I can’t set her up with Jason….” Noel mumbled to himself.
Noel: I’m sorry I have to go I’ll see you tomorrow at the café!
Noel: Have a good night (Y/N).
“Hmmmmm I wonder what’s up….”
You were so excited to meet your matchmaker Noel and even though he didn’t want to admit it he was very excited to meet you too. The evening before the date you spent the entire night looking for the perfect outfit you really wanted to impress Noel.
“Amber am I a horrible person for wanting to take Noel from his girlfriend? Because I honestly do not feel bad about it….” You asked your friend as you tried on your eighth outfit for the date.
“Well you said whenever you asked him about her Noel didn’t seem too happy with her.” Amber replied.
“Yeah I asked Noel about his passions in life he said he is big into computers! He also said he loves to play soccer and spend time with his friends. Then I asked him when was the last time he did any of those things and he paused for a long time before answering me….. He said it’s been a year since he had done anything he loves to do. I think that got him seriously thinking Amber!” You said getting excited. “If I was with Noel I wouldn’t want him to stop being himself just for me. I want him the way he is because the Noel I am getting to know is pretty amazing.” You flopped onto your bed sighing happily.
“Oooooooh it sounds like you’re crushing on him hard (Y/N)! Tsk, tsk having feelings for a taken man!” Amber said as she poked at you teasingly making you giggle.
“Yeah well Noel is just as bad!” You said sticking out your tongue. “I think it’s just a matter of time before he comes to his senses. I am already getting through to him.” You got up and tried on one last outfit, it was a lacy tank top with distressed shorts that were just short enough and cute sandals. You looked yourself over in the mirror.
“(Y/N) you look beautiful! Just a little make-up and a pretty hairstyle it’s perfect!” Amber said happily.
“You think so?” You asked as you continued to look at yourself trying to find something wrong with what you were wearing but Amber was right, the outfit was perfect for a first date.
“I know so! Its an adorable outfit that’s just flirty enough to keep Noel wanting to come back!” She said giving you a devious smile.
“You’re just as bad as I am!” You shouted out laughing hysterically. “Okay will you help me put this mess away so I can find my bed? I need to sleep at some point tonight!” You started to laugh again.
“Yes I will help you with your mess!” Amber said as she got up.
In no time at all, all of your clothes were back where they belong. “Thanks Amber! I don’t know what I would do without you, you’re the best!” You said hugging your friend tightly.
“I know! Anyone else would think you’re completely insane for what you are trying to do, but I fully support this!”
You looked at Amber with question. “Why do I have a suspicion that there is more to this Amber?” You asked raising an eyebrow. “You’re one of the friends Hannah is keeping him away from aren’t you?”
“Wow you’re very perceptive (Y/N)!” Amber looked at you astonished. “Yeah Noel is like an older brother to me! I have known him since middle school. People used to bully me and Noel has always looked out for me since then….. But ever since he started dating stupid Hannah he’s forgotten about his friends…. I don’t think she even really likes him if you ask me! But with you (Y/N) I can tell you genuinely care for Noel just by the way you talk about him! I totally ship you and Noel together!” Amber shouted giving you the confidence you needed.
“Yeah! I can do it! Noel will be my boyfriend!” You cheered happily with Amber. “Thank you Amber! I really needed that!” You said beaming at her. “You are an amazing friend!”
“I’m trying to be! I just want Noel to be happy again and I can see him being happy with you!” Amber said as she hugged you goodnight. “I will talk to you tomorrow! Let me know how the date goes!”
“Okay Amber! I will and thanks again for everything you’re the best!” You waved goodbye to your friend before shutting the door. You opened up Mechat to look at the photos Noel sent you. “I hope it’s the one I want!” You sighed dreamily. “Oh my God I’m a dumbass! I didn’t ask Amber which one Noel is!!!! How stupid can I be!” You shouted to yourself. “Hm? Noel messaged me?” You said looking at your phone.
Noel: Hey (Y/N)…. Jason just texted me and cancelled he can’t make it tomorrow….
Noel: So…. I guess I’ll just cancel everything….
Y/N: Wait! Don’t do that!
Y/N: I want to meet my pimp!
Noel: That sounds so wrong on so many levels xD
Y/N: If you are going to set me up with your friend…. I would feel better knowing you.
Noel: Sounds fair….
Noel: I did reserve my time for this ether way.
Y/N: So is that a yes? :D
Noel: Promise me you’ll BEHAVE!?
Y/N: Mwhahaha I am afraid I can not do that!!!
Noel: (Y/N)!!!!!
Y/N: I will see you tomorrow! Have a good night Noel!
You signed off before Noel could answer.
You woke up early the next morning because you were so excited to finally meet the mystery man Noel. You hopped out of bed, a huge smile stretching across your face as you gathered your things to take a shower. You ran down the hall to the bathroom, you wanted to get your day started! You couldn’t wait to meet Noel. Quickly you showered and got ready in the bathroom. “It’s only nine-thirty in the morning!? I still have a few hours before I even meet up with Noel! I guess I’ll go get breakfast and enjoy the sunshine.” You locked the door to your dorm and headed to the café for breakfast. “Maybe I’ll get lucky and he will be there.” You giggled as you made your way outside. “It’s a beautiful day out today!” You said happily as you walked to the café. Your day was about to get even better as you spotted a young man with white hair and a shark tattoo on his neck heading inside the café. “Oh my goodness that has to be Noel!” You said to yourself as you opened the door to go in, you were about to go over to Noel but he was in line standing with a girl, who you assumed only to be Hannah. You stood there silently observing the couple and you could clearly tell they weren’t into each other, they just stood there on their phones not even interacting with each other. “Noel why are you dating her?” You said to yourself quietly. “You belong with me!” It wasn’t quiet enough Noel heard you and looked over at you. Your eyes met, each of you smiled at the other as your cheeks flushed a deep red. “He heard me….”
“She’s even more beautiful than I thought! Damnit why do I have to be with Hannah right now!?” Noel thought as he looked at you his own cheeks getting warm, turning a light pink. He smiled at you and waved before turning back around.
“Where’s a fast forward button when you need it….” The both of you mumbled under your breath.
You stood there quietly as you watched Noel and Hannah leave the café.
“Oh man I want to ditch Hannah and see (Y/N)!” Noel thought to himself. “Hopefully (Y/N) will stay around the café and I can make something up to go see her….. What am I doing!? I need to end things with Hannah soon if I am acting like this….. I don’t want to hurt her…. But I don’t think I have feelings for her anymore.” Noel stared at Hannah blankly as he thought about you.
“Hey Noel I gotta head out I have a project that is due next week and I need to go finish it with Jason because he is my partner. I’ll see you soon okay?” Hannah said to Noel before she kissed him on the cheek.
“Oh uh okay. I’ll see you soon Hannah! Good luck with your project.” He yelled waving goodbye to her. “Well okay then, guess I’ll go see (Y/N) hopefully she is still at the café.” Noel turned around and ran back to the café, he first checked inside but you were nowhere.
You were sitting at one of the tables outside enjoying your latte and breakfast sandwich when you saw Noel run right past you, Hannah was not with him. “Hmmmmm I may have just gotten my wish.” You suddenly saw him run back out. “Well someone had the same idea as me!” You shouted from your seat causing Noel to look over at you.
“(Y/N)!” He smiled and ran over to your table. “Hey there! So am I the one you were hoping for?” Noel said cheekily as he sat down next to you.
“Hey, you…” You smiled and stuck out your tongue. “You are exactly who I was hoping for! My gut feeling didn’t lead me astray for a second.” You blushed as you sat there staring at Noel, the biggest smile on your face. In that moment as you were looking at him you realized just how much you were falling for him. Your smile soon faded.
“(Y/N) what’s wrong?” Noel looked at you with a sadness in his eyes.
“I’m not sure if that is a good thing or not….” You sat there staring at the ground.
Noel looked at you surprised. “Why not (Y/N)?”
“Because….. I am falling for a taken man…” You said shyly.
“Oh…..” Noel began as he glanced at you frowning. “I’m sorry (Y/N) I don’t know what to say.” He sat there quietly twiddling his thumbs.
“It’s fine Noel you don’t have to say anything! I am just glad you are here.” You said giving him a warm, reassuring smile.
“Hey let’s go for a walk, there are some things I need to tell you.” Noel got up from the table and you followed.
He lead you down one of the walking trails near the campus, the two of you walked on for a little while until Noel lead you down a secluded path.
“Why Noel where are you taking me?” You said teasingly flirting with him.
Noel chuckled. “We are almost there! Don’t you worry!” He said as he held out his hand for you to take.
You raised your eyebrow with question. “And you were telling me to behave? But here you are trying to hold my hand.” You said jokingly.
“Yup! You caught me red-handed!” Noel laughed with you. “Seriously though the rocks are really slippery I don’t want you to fall and hurt yourself.”
“Thank you that’s very kind of you Noel.” You said as you took his hand, a spark instantly igniting inside the two of you. “Wow….” You mumbled under your breath as your fingers touched his.
“I absolutely love it here!” Noel said smiling his entire attitude changed.
You stood there smiling as you took in the beautiful sight of the forest and babbling brook. The wonderful chirping of the birds and the sound of the river brought you a wonderful sense of peace. “It’s beautiful here Noel. Do you spend a lot of time here?” You asked him.
Noel’s smile faded. “I used to.” He sighed. “Lately I’ve been a bit….” He trailed off.
“Busy with your relationship?” You asked.
Noel stared blankly at the ground as he nodded his head ashamed of his response. “You know I never brought her here.” Noel said in hopes to lighten the mood. “Is that bad?”
“The more important question is why?” You replied.
“I selfishly wanted to keep this place for myself.” He shrugged.
“Then why did you bring me here?” You questioned Noel.
“That’s the thing (Y/N)…..” He stepped closer to you. “There is something about you that moves me. I have just met you and I want to spend every second of every day talking to you.” He smiled and took your hands in his. “I don’t want to hide things from you…… I want to share everything with you.” He said smiling at you.
You stood there silently observing Noel, unsure how to react, you really wanted to say fuck it and kiss him, but you couldn’t do that. You aren’t crazy it is obvious Noel liked you too.
“I’m sorry that was totally inappropriate of me.” He said staring at the ground.
“I wish you were more inappropriate!” You blurted out making Noel blush as a smile started to form on his lips. “That’s better! I hate seeing you sad.”
He kept smiling at you as his grip tightened on your hand he stared deeper and deeper into your eyes. Noel leaned in so close, you could of kissed him if you really wanted to. He paused a moment before inhaling deeply. “You smell so good.” He whispered into your ear.
“Noel we are crossing the line we need to behave….” You whined out as you felt his warm breath on your neck.
He stopped himself and backed away. “I know…. As much as I want to, I won’t do anything, not like this. I want you but Hannah deserves a break up before anything happens between us. I am being bad enough right now holding your hands and being so close to you. My desires to pin you against a tree and forcefully kiss you are so strong but I am better than that…. You both deserve better.”
You stood there a blushing mess as you heard those words fall from Noel’s luscious lips, the assertiveness he put behind his words made you go weak in the knees. “And Jason?” Was all you managed to get out.
“I Lied before.” He chuckled as a devilish smile formed on his face.
“I knew it! You are looking for a girlfriend for yourself!” You said teasing him making him laugh.
“Hahaha! No not about that. Jason didn’t cancel on us…. I canceled on Jason….” He said frowning.
“I’m not following why did you cancel on Jason?” You looked at Noel confused.
Noel grabbed you pulling you in close to him. “I couldn’t set up my best friend with the girl I am falling for.” He smiled at you brightly. “I am not giving up on you (Y/N)! Soon we will be together!”
You smirked. “I knew you had feelings for me!” You replied sticking out your tongue teasing Noel, his face got serious as he backed you against the railing of the bridge.
“I can’t wait to feel that amazing tongue of yours.”
“O-oh…..” Your breath hitched his comment instantly wiped that smirk off of your face, you started to breath heavier as he pressed himself closer to you making you a hot mess.
“I’ll see you soon okay?” He smirked kissing your cheek before he backed away leaving you shocked.
“Wait you aren’t going to kiss me?”
“All in due time (Y/N) I will be doing much more than kissing you.” He winked at you before walking away leaving you very flustered and completely smitten.
“Wow, he is something else…..” You couldn’t stop smiling at the thought of kissing Noel and you knew soon it would happen. “I can’t wait to be in his arms!” You daydreamed about being with Noel the entire way to Amber’s dorm, you were on cloud nine. You sighed dreamily as you knocked on her door.
Amber rushed to the door to greet you. “(Y/N)!” She instantly saw the dreamy sparkle in your eyes. “I take it the meeting with Noel went well?” She asked as you walked into her room.
“Mhmmmmm!” You giggled like a schoolgirl. “I think he is going to break up with Hannah! Him being face to face with me really helped him sort out his feelings. He-he said he is falling for me!” You squealed falling onto Amber’s bed hugging her body pillow. “I have a good feeling I’ll be getting a message from him tomorrow telling me he broke up with Hannah.”
“You certainty seem so sure of this…. What happened with Noel did you two kiss!?” Amber shook you wanting an answer.
“No we didn’t kiss or do anything at all…. But if he wasn’t with Hannah….” Your face turned red at the thought of what could of happened. “Oh my I don’t think he would of kept his hands off of me. I can just imagine how far he would of gone, damnit now I wish that did happen!” You cried out in frustration.
“Calm down (Y/N) all in due time Noel will be yours.” Amber said teasing you.
“I can’t be patient!” You laughed. “I want him and I want him now! Huh?” You took out your phone because it vibrated. “Hey its Noel!”
Noel: Ask me what I just did!
Y/N: What did you just do Noel?
Noel: I broke up with Hannah!
“No fucking way! Amber green light! He dumped Hannah!” You jumped out of Amber’s bed ready to go see him now.
“Wow that was fast! He must really, really like you!”
Noel: (Y/N) you there?
Y/N: OMG are you serious!?
Noel: Yes completely serious! I actually feel relieved.
Y/N: How did she take it?
Noel: Do you really want to talk about that?
Y/N: No lol I don’t…. I want to come and see you!
“Damn she really wants me.” Noel thought to himself smirking.
Noel: Now? I don’t think that is a good idea…. Hannah is getting all of her stuff out of my room right now….
Y/N: Oh yeah that would be bad if I showed up xD.
Y/N: Then lets talk about you!
Noel: What about me?
Y/N: Well I know a lot about Jason…. Now I want to know who Noel is, the guy I am crushing on!
Noel: I am the guy you went on a date with ;)
Y/N: The one who almost kissed me?
Noel: Yes I almost did ;) I wanted to so bad! You have no idea.
Y/N: Then why didn’t you?
Noel: I am many things (Y/N), but one thing I am not is a cheater.
Y/N: Is that your way of saying next time is see you, you will kiss me?
Noel: I don’t kiss and tell
Noel: Or tell and kiss ;P
Noel: This going to sound cheesy but I am a nice guy (Y/N).
Noel: I am a bit of a geek and really shy, but I do my best to be a decent guy towards everyone.
Y/N: I can see that although I still haven’t seen this geek guy…. The Noel I have been talking to and the one I went on a date with was very confident ;)
Noel suddenly sent you a photo of him shirtless in bed on his laptop, you couldn’t stop drooling over it. “God damn Noel! I need a cold shower now!” You jokingly fanned yourself with your hand.
Y/N: Nice ummmmm…. Computer?
Noel: Thank you!
Noel: It is amazing! It has CPU: Up to 10th Generation Meinchat Core i9-10980 HK
Noel Moulin made a Mechat account because he wanted to find a girlfriend for his best friend Jason, he felt guilty about abandoning his buddy. One day he matches with you and his entire world is turned around making him realize how wrong his current girlfriend is for him. The more he talks to you the more he falls accidently in love with you.
Part One: Noel
You signed into Mechat to see if you had any new matches and if any of them even caught your eye. You let out a heavy sigh as you swiped left on everyone. “This is so lame I never get any good matches!” You yelled out very frustrated, suddenly a profile caught your eye. “Noel Moulin? Hmmm.” There were two young men in the photo one was very, very handsome with pale skin, white hair and blue eyes. He had a septum piercing and a shark tattoo on the right side of his neck. The other man had long green hair frankly you weren’t very interested in him. “Okay I have to know the story behind this one! Hopefully it’s the cutie with the white hair! He’s the one I want.” You looked through his profile. “Oh my God he’s a student here at the college! How have I not seen him around here!?” You looked at your phone shocked as you swiped right on the profile.
Your phone went off instantly.
Noel: Hey!
“Well that was fast.” You said to yourself.
Y/N: Hey
Y/N: Isn’t it confusing putting a photo with two people on a dating profile?
Noel: I guess, but if you think about it…
Noel: The higher chances of getting matched! Heh
Y/N: Hmmmm that is pretty smart
Noel: See! Now you know how smart I am!
Y/N: Okay let me ask you this…. What if I swiped right for the other guy and not you?
Noel: I would say that’s good news!
Y/N: Uh how come?
Noel: Well if you read my profile I am looking for a match for my friend ;)
Y/N: Okay now I have another question… which one are you anyway?
Noel: Let’s keep that a secret for a while ;) I want you to fall for my friend based on his qualities not looks.
Y/N: Oh come on! That’s not fair…. What if I like you?
Noel: That would kinda be a problem….
Y/N: Why?
Noel: I have a girlfriend… heh
Y/N: Oh….
Noel: Don’t worry! I am really unlikable ;)
Y/N: I disagree!
Noel: Just wait for it LOL!
Y/N: So…. How does this work? You just brag about your friend?
Y/N: I mean…. I’ve never matched with someone for their friend. This is kinda weird.
Noel: It’s only weird if we make it weird! LMAO!
Y/N: No it’s pretty weird….
You chuckled at the silly conversation you were having with your mystery man Noel.
Y/N: See! I already like you!
Noel chuckled at his phone. “Oh boy I like this girl! It’s really easy to talk to her….”
Noel: Okay so we need to undo the damage then! Lol!
Y/N: How are we going to do that?
Noel: By talking about my friend Jason! He is really kind and loving.
Noel: But! He is also strong and manly!
Y/N: LMAO! Wow you are such a bad pimp!
Noel: Hey I can do better! Just give me another chance! Please?
Y/N: Okay! One more chance! But that’s it LOL
Noel: He is the life of the party! A popular guy who is sometimes too busy to date.
Y/N: Ewwwww I don’t like him already!
Noel: Don’t be so judge mental!
Y/N: Woooooow and now you’re offending me. LMAO
Y/N: this pimping is going great! ;)
Noel: Hahahaha you started it!
Y/N: All I said was I like you better.
Noel: Well you have terrible taste!
Y/N: I like you a bit less now.
Noel: Good! We can focus on Jason now!
You laid there in your bed giggling at your phone. The more you talked to this Noel guy the more you liked him…..
Y/N: Okay send me Jason’s photo I want to see what he is all about.
Noel: I know what you are trying to do but I am smarter than that! ;)
Noel sent you a photo of the two guys again this time they were at the beach shirtless enjoying a beer. You laid there slightly drooling from hotness of the shirtless picture. “Damn I really hope Jason isn’t the white-haired guy and Noel is…. What am I saying Noel has a girlfriend…”
Y/N: That’s just great! I’m dealing with a smartass… a hot smartass
Noel: How do you know I am the hot one?
Y/N: Because I like who I am talking to…. Duh :P
Noel: Oh…..
Noel: I am a taken man you need to stop flirting with me.
Y/N: I’ll behave! I promise.
Noel: Why don’t I believe that?
Y/N: Don’t be so judge mental! ;P
Noel: Hahaha nicely played!
Y/N: Okay! Tell me about Jason…. What is he like?
Noel: All jokes aside he is a really good guy! Hardworking and smart!
Noel: Really handsome….
Y/N: If you’re his friend I am sure he is amazing.
Noel: He is surreal.
Y/N: I sense a bromance. LMAO!
Noel laughed as he smiled at the message you sent him.
Noel: Hey! There is nothing wrong with liking your friends.
Y/N: I’m just joking. I actually like that you are helping him.
Y/N: That’s really nice of you!
Noel sent you a voice message saying that he had to go because he was late seeing his girlfriend.
Y/N: Maybe you’ll be single after that ;)
“One can only hope!” You said to yourself.
Noel: I might have to make a profile for myself here heh.
Noel: I’ll message you later! Bye!
You frowned at your phone as the little bubble next to Noel’s name went dark. “This…. Isn’t good I’m crushing on a taken man.” You said to yourself sighing in disappointment as you got up to get ready to go out with your friend. “Okay! Let’s get my mind off of him and have fun with my friend!” You said happily as you headed out the door.
*
“Well this isn’t going as planned….” You said to yourself as you checked your phone for the tenth time to see if Noel was back online, but he wasn’t.
“Hey (Y/N) are you okay? You seem very distracted.” Your friend asked you.
“Yea I’m fine Amber…. Just waiting for this guy I matched with on Mechat to come back online….” You replied staring blankly at your phone frowning.
“Oh? You finally met someone!? Well why aren’t you happier about it?” Amber asked you.
You looked at your friend sadness was written all over your face. “Because…. He made a profile for his friend not him and the guy I am talking to has a girlfriend…. He’s the one I like not his friend and I don’t know what to do!” You said in a huff. “You know this is just my luck I finally find someone I like and he is taken… Amber what do I do!? I’m already so hung up on this guy and I talked to him once! Help me get my mind off of him!”
“Well how about you stay over in my room tonight? We could have a spa night! I got facial masks and we can pamper ourselves!”
“Yeah! That sounds awesome!” You replied as you looked at your phone again.
“My one rule no phones until tomorrow okay? You’re too worried about Noel you need to cool it!” Amber said as she took your phone and put it on silent in her drawer.
“Okay, okay fine! You’re right Amber I am thinking too much into this… Let’s have a fun night!” You walked over to Ambers stereo and blasted some music. You spent the rest of the night with Amber having the best time completely forgetting about Noel.
*
You woke up the next morning and jumped out of bed to get your phone.
“You don’t waste any time do you (Y/N)?You really like him don’t you?” Amber called from her bed.
“Yes I truly do Amber.” You replied as you opened up Mechat to see if Noel messaged you and of course he did. “He messaged me! Yay!” You said happily as you opened up the chat.
Noel: I made it out alive….. This time (10:08pm)
Y/N: Are you single now? ;) (9:45 am)
Noel: I almost was but we talked it out.
“Awwww damnit!” You shouted out in frustration.
“What?” Amber asked.
“He isn’t single….” You said as you jokingly started to cry.
Y/N: Did you tell her why you were late?
Noel: Are you insane? I would be dead!
Y/N: Why? You’re just looking for someone for your friend right?
Noel: Yes, but how would you feel knowing your boyfriend is late because he was talking to someone gorgeous like you?
You felt your cheeks get warm from the sweet compliment Noel just gave you. “Oh come on Noel! You’re not helping me by doing that!” You shouted at your phone.
“What did he say!?” Your friend asked looking at your phone.
“He called me gorgeous!” You said holding your phone up.
Amber stole your phone from you. “Let me handle this one for you (Y/N)!”
“Oh uh okay!” You looked at Amber baffled.
Y/N: Y-you think I’m gorgeous!?
Noel: How can anyone not? Only a blind person would be immune to your beauty.
Y/N: Why Noel did you just give me a compliment?
Noel: I am terribly sorry I am crossing the line.
“(Y/N) Noel is such a sweetheart! You have to get him somehow!” Amber said showing you what he wrote. “A true gentleman!”
“See I told you!” You replied taking your phone back. “Now you see why I am crushing on him hard!”
Y/N: Don’t be.
Y/N: It’s nice to hear that once in a while.
Noel: I’m sure you hear it all the time!
Y/N: Not from the right person…..
Noel: You know…. Jason is really good at compliments ;)
Y/N: Smooth way to pass the ball to someone else ;P
Noel: I was thinking…. Why don’t you meet Jason?
Noel: That way you could see by yourself I am not making this up.
Y/N: I don’t know…. I am against going out with someone I have never spoken to….
Noel: Come on! It’ll be like a blind date!
Y/N: Would you go on a date like that?
Noel: I’m taken….
Y/N: If you weren’t, would you go out with someone you’ve never spoken a word with?
Noel: No….
Y/N: There you go!
Suddenly you get another voice message from Noel suggesting a double date that way you don’t feel uncomfortable meeting Jason alone.
Y/N: Hmmmmm I will think about it.
Noel: You are a stubborn one and I find that hot for some reason.
Y/N: Why Noel are you flirting with me? ;P
Noel: OMG I guess I am! Well I guess I am a jackass.
Y/N: I guess I am into a jackass then ;)
Y/N: Jason stands no chance against you….
Noel sighed looking frustrated at his phone. “Damn she keeps pulling me back in! She’s awakening a side of me I haven’t seen in a while…. I really, really want her….”
Noel: We can’t do this!
Y/N: Why not?
Y/N: We are just getting to know each other.
Noel: The problem is…. The more I talk to you and get to know you the more I like you….
Y/N: How long have you been in a relationship?
Noel: Almost a year.
Y/N: You really are a nice guy aren’t you?
Noel: I try my best.
Y/N: Can I ask you something?
Noel: Sure.
Y/N: Are you happy?
Noel paused for a long moment thinking if he was truly happy…. He let out a long sigh…. “No I don’t think I am….”
Noel: You know…. It’s been a long time since someone has asked me that….
Y/N: Are you?
Noel: This should be easier to respond to…..
Noel: You know I like Hannah…. She’s really nice.
“But she isn’t who I want to be with…. God (Y/N) I’m starting to really like you….”
Noel: But I miss hanging out with my friends…. With Jason….
Y/N: So why don’t you?
Noel: She doesn’t want me around single people.
Noel: I guess she thinks they will infect me or something…..
Y/N: I get it now…. You feel guilty for abandoning Jason….
Y/N: This why it is so important to you to find him someone.
Noel paused thinking for a moment.
Noel: Maybe.
Y/N: Don’t you think he just wants his friend back?
Noel: What am I supposed to do? No matter what I choose someone will get hurt….
Y/N: What is your heart telling you Noel?
Noel: I’m sorry….
Noel: I can’t do this…. I have to go….
Y/N: Wait Noel….
Y/N: I didn’t mean to offend you….
Noel: I just have to clear my head….
Noel stared at his phone, tears filled his eyes as he logged off.
Y/N: Noel I am sorry…. Will you text me later???
Y/N: Noel????
“Shit what did I do…. I hope he will be okay….” You said to Amber as you showed her your phone. “I think I hit a nerve. I feel so bad now….” You sighed. “Hey I think I’m gonna head back to my dorm Amber, I have some studying to do.” You said as you turned to leave. “I’ll talk to you soon!”
You made your way back to your dorm for the rest of the day. The entire day passed by and you barely got any studying done, all you could think about was Noel. “Well this was a complete waste of time.” You said to yourself as you looked at the time. “Oh my God its almost eleven pm!? I’ve wasted the entire day thinking about Noel….” You got up from your desk to put away your books and laptop. “I guess I should get ready for bed.” Quickly you brushed your teeth and changed into pajamas, you checked your phone one last time to see if Noel messaged you but still nothing so you plugged in your phone. “Hopefully I will hear from Noel tomorrow.” You rolled over almost instantly falling asleep.
Your alarm woke you up the next morning, stirring quietly in your bed you slowly opened your eyes while you stretched. You grabbed your phone to shut your alarm off and check Mechat. “Oh! Noel messaged me…. At four o’clock in the morning!? Oh my….”
Noel: Hey (4:15 am)
Noel: Are you awake I could use someone to talk to…. If not just message me when you get this :) (5:02 am)
Noel: Hey you’re awake.
Y/N: Hey how are you feeling?
You hopped out of bed and started your coffee pot.
Noel: Like crap, TBH.
Y/N: I’m sorry…. I crossed the line….
Y/N: I mean who am I to give advice on life?
Y/N: I’m on a dating app looking for love….
Noel: Actually I really appreciated it!
Noel: The only person who was that honest with me was Jason….
Y/N: He seems like a nice guy!
Y/N: Now I might consider going out with him ;P
Noel looked at his phone shocked.
Noel: OMG really!?
Y/N: Yeah but I want you to be there too!!!!!!
Y/N: You two need a chance to reconnect!
Noel: I might of just found him a perfect match!!!
Y/N: Hey don’t start the wedding celebrations just yet. LOL!
Y/N: I just said yes to a date!
Noel: Thank you.
Y/N: For going out with Jason?
Noel: No for being such a good friend to me <3
Y/N: You obviously need someone to take care of you ;)
Noel: I am glad I’m in such good hands ;)
Y/N: So what have you been up to today?
Noel sent you another voice message talking about how after the advice you gave him, he started to look through old photos of him and Jason. That made him want to fix his friendship with Jason.
Noel: Hahahahha okay you HAVE to take a look at this!
Y/N: Oh God what is it?
Noel sent you a photo of him and Jason dressed up like cowboys. You almost spit out your coffee from laughing so hard.
Y/N: Hahahaha Oh I have to know more about this!
Y/N: That is fascinating!
Y/N: I mean you are both on FIRE!
Noel: Go ahead…. Laugh it out! LMAO.
Y/N: So you were…. Cowboys???? LMFAO!
Noel: It’s not THAT funny!
Y/N: Oh but it is!
Noel: It was Halloween and we won best costume!
Y/N: I’m sure you did! LMAO!
Noel: You are EVIL! XD
Y/N: Hahahaa no one likes to hear the truth!
Noel: Can I call Jason and set up the date?
Y/N: Is he going to wear THAT SUIT? LMFAO
Noel: I HIGHLY DOUBT that, BUT I can ask him…. If you’re into that….
Y/N: I am into laughing!
Noel: I’ll ignore that comment and set up the date.
Y/N: I can’t wait to see you in that outfit!
Noel: OMG you’re going to be such a pain in the ass! LMAO.
Y/N: You said I am awesome and you cannot take that back!
Noel: You are awesome…. I wasn’t planning on retracting my statement.
Y/N: Am I wrong to think…. That maybe you like me too?
Noel blushed and smiled at his phone. “Damn I haven’t even met her and she already can read me like a book….”
Noel: No you’re not….
Noel: I just try really hard to fight it.
Y/N: Why?
Noel: Because of Hannah…. I just can’t hurt her…..
Y/N: So you are hurting yourself?
Noel:….. Yes……
Y/N: Okay tell me one thing.
Y/N: What are the things you love to do most in life?
Y/N: Things that make your blood boil and truly move you?
Noel: I’m a computer geek…. Hacking and programming are a huge part of my life!
Noel: I also love hanging out with my friends, playing soccer, training…. Reading….
Y/N: Now tell me Noel….
Y/N: When was the last time you did any of that stuff?
Noel: One year ago :(
Y/N: Do you see where I am going with this?
Noel: Yes….
Y/N: Someone who loves you, doesn’t spend all that time trying to change the core of who you are!
Noel: You are a really good therapist (Y/N)….
Y/N: I am just trying to be a good friend to you Noel.
Noel: Hey Jason is calling me…. What should I say?
Noel: Are we on for the date?
Y/N: It sounds like a bad threesome, but I am in!
Noel snorted at your message.
Noel: LMFAO!
Noel: Let me organize everything and I’ll text you the details.
Noel: Is that okay with you?
Y/N: I’ll be waiting.
Noel: Hey (Y/N)…. Thank you for all the advice.
Y/N: There is much more where that came from.
Noel: I don’t doubt it for a second ;)
You smiled at your phone as you watched Noel sign offline. “He likes me!” You said to yourself smiling.
