Chapter 4
Cathy's POV:
Today was the day I finally get to fly to Boston to meet Noah, it was currently 11:00pm as I was in the car with mom who decided to drop me off to the airport since I was a "irresponsible driver", my flight would get here at 1:00am and I had a lot of time to kill at the airport.
"Ok we're here, please be responsible, dad and I have trusted you enough to let you fly alone" mom started saying
"Mom I'm almost an adult can you please just trust me" I said taking my suitcase out of the trunk of the car
"If I didn't trust you I wouldn't have let you go" she said
"Whatever I'm fine" I said walking away from the car and into the airport
"Be safe, I love you" she said
"Bye mom" I said walking away, I know I wasn't very polite with mom but I just can't see myself saying I love you back to my parents or any family member.
I sat in my seat close to the window as I texted Noah
Cathy: I just got on the plane, can't wait to see you soon
Noah: that's awesome, I can't wait to meet you as well
Cathy: I think I might nap now
Noah: ok, the flight's long text me if you get bored when you wake up
Cathy: I will :)
I put my phone away trying to sleep
When I'd land it would be 6am I'm not looking forward to that
I looked for Noah as I just got out of the plane, my eyes were tired from the sleep and jet lag kept bugging me as well, then I saw Noah who looked like he was looking for me too
"Noah I'm here!" I said excitedly as I walked faster toward him and so did he
I felt his arms around my waist and his soft lips against mine, we pulled away as I saw his beautiful brown eyes look into my eyes.
"I missed you" he said taking my suitcase as I took my carry-on in my hand
"I missed you too! Plus I have so much to tell you about that" I said excitedly as the looked at me
"What's going on lately, you just started school, how's that been?"
"The worst, in psychology I got paired with Ashton, I hate him"
"That sucks" he said as we walked toward his car and kept the bags in the trunk
"What's happening in uni though? You just started and Harvard is such a great school as well"
"It's been so good, I made a bunch of friends"
"That's so good!" I said happy for him
"Ok but the first thing we do when we get to my dorm is sleep, I'm so sleepy" he said rubbing his eyes as we got into the car
"Agreed, I've been so tired lately"
When we got into his dorm, I silently out down my bags trying not to wake up Noah's roommate, I walked in to his room and looked around, his jersey was laying on his chair and his study table was empty. His room was pretty nice for a dorm room.
"I'll just go shower I'll be back" I said
"Be back soon I want cuddles"
"It'll be quick don't worry" I said as I walked in the shower
*two days later*
The past few days with Noah had been very fun, we did loads of things and went to loads of places, today I had gone out with Rachael, she was an old friend who used to live in my neighborhood as kids before she went away to collage which was here in Boston.
I walked into the dorm to find no one there, Noah didn't have anything important to do today I wonder where he was I walked into his room to find him making out with another girl, I'd never seen her before. I was shocked, sad and most importantly angry
"WHAT THE FUCK NOAH!" I said as both of them now noticed me
"no it's not what you think this is" he said getting up from his bed
"THEN WHAT IS IT?!" I asked
"You have a girlfriend?!" The attractive woman on the bed asked
"Ok I'm sorry I-" he said
"I'm leaving as soon as I'm done packing my things"
I said hurrying to ward my bags and stuffing them with clothes the woman in the bed had now left and Noah tried to talk to me
"Baby listen to me please" he said trying to get me to talk to him
"No! I can't believe you! I trusted you and then you do this!"
"Bye" I said taking my one packed bags and storming off the the airport
I looked at when the next flight to Hornsby would be and that's not until 12:00pm, it was currently 11:00 am, I brought the tickets from dads emergency credit card, I'm sure he'd understand that I don't wanna spend one more night with the guy who cheated on me while I trusted him.
I sat in my seat waiting to take off, the tears in my eyes wouldn't stop falling, I took out my phone and texted dad
Me: Hey dad um something came up with Noah and I, I used your credit card to get me home, on the plane right now, will explain everything once I get back home
I clicked the send button and put my phone away, I looked out the window as I tried to distract myself. My phone buzzed, it was a text from dad
Dad: ok, stay safe, better hope there's a valid reason for this
I left the text on seen, why was I scared of explaining this to mom and dad when it was not my fault at all?
I woke up still in the plane, my eyes tried to keep themselves open as I checked my phone, there were a million texts. I rubbed my eyes as I saw who they were from
9 missed calls from Noah💞
36 texts from Noah 💞
3 texts from Ash🖕🏻
I opened Ashton's texts wondering what he wanted
Ash: I submitted out assignment today got a A-
Ash: we also got homework
Ash: *image*
Cathy: thx
I put my phone away as I ignored all the calls and texts from Noah, I wasn't sad anymore though, just angry not at him but at myself, why did I waste my time on someone who didn't appreciate me, why would he even save up money to bring me to meet him of he didn't want to be with me, why did I trust him? My mind was running in circles, what do I do next? I thought I knew Noah, I thought everything I thought about him was true but he was completely different from who I thought he was, am I doin the same thing with Ashton? Am I repeating a mistake? But this is not the same as with Ashton. Even though I just broke up with Noah why did my mind wander off to Ashton? Why do I question everyone and everything?
I got into dads car as I shut their door It was currently 8am, I waited for him to ask the question I dreaded
"Why'd you come back home early?" He asked as he drove home
"He cheated on me and I didn't want to wait till I came home"
"I'm sorry that's terrible, if you want we can pick up some snacks"
"Yea sure" I said drained from the past few hours
I picked out bags of lays and some candy, I planned on staying in bed all day long. Ignoring all the questions from mom and Kaylee, I knew dad would explain it to them as I stormed off to my room and unpacked my bags and showered. I got into bed with my snacks and phone as I heard a knock on the door
"Come in" I said
"It's time to get dressed for school" Kaylee said to me
"I'm not goin" I said as she walked out with a sigh I chewed on my twizzlers
I looked at my phone and decided to open the texts from Noah
Noah: I'm sorry, I know I hurt your feelings and I know I shouldn't have, I hate myself for doing this to you and to what we have
Noah: if you just give me another chance I promise I will show you how serious I am
about us
Noah: please reply, I miss you. I regret not saying all the things I could've said to you
Noah: I wish I never kissed her! I wish I treated you the way you deserve to be treated
I read through all the texts he send me, if he really cared about us he wouldn't have done it, he wouldn't have kissed another girl because thats the thing I meant nothing to him neither did our relationship.
My phone buzzed, it was a call from Noah, I answered it
"Hey" I sighed
"I'm sorry"
"No" I said
"Please you mean the world to me Cathy just listen to me"
"I won't, you hurt me when I trusted you more than anyone else in the world"
"If I could do it all over I wish I'd never met her" he said
"Eventually you'd meet someone else who you'd rather be with so she was not the problem Noah it was you, the poor girl didn't even know you were in a relationship, just face it Noah I don't mean anything to you and that was always the way it was and its not going to change"
"I'm sorry I never wanted to hurt you and someday if I'm not the guy I am now jut know you were the reason" he said hanging up
