CHAPTER 39

I look at Noah, then at Nick, and back to Noah. There is no way this is going to go well.

"What are you doing here?" I ask Noah, even though I do not want to hear the answer, especially not in front of Nick.

"What do you think I am doing here! You snuck out on me while I was asleep, what the hell was that?!" Noah booms. I hold my breath as his voice echoes off the wall. Nick's face flashes with anger and I know he is beginning to put the puzzle pieces together.

I am torn between trying to explain to Nick what is going on and trying to explain to Noah why I left.

"Answer me!" Noah yells and stands in front of my face. I am surprised when Nick steps between us.

"Don't yell at her" he warns Noah. I am frozen in place when Noah's face twists in anger. Why is he so mad that I left? He would have kicked me out anyway. I need to say something before this all blows up in my face. He is probably only angry that he didn't get to make me cry first/

"Noah.. please don't do this right now." I beg. If he leaves now, I can try to explain to Nick what is going on.

"Do what Jane?" Noah asks and walks around Nick. I hope Nick keeps his distance, I don't think Noah will hesitate to knock him over. Nick is pretty buff, especially compared to Noah's lean body but I have no doubt Noah will hold his own, and most likely win. What the hell is happening in my life that I have to worry about Nick and Noah fighting?

"Noah , please just go and we will talk about this later" I say and Nick shakes his head.

"Talk about what? What the hell is going on Dixie?" Nick cuts in. Oh god.

"Tell him, go on and tell him" Noah says. I can't believe he is doing this. I know how cruel he can be but this takes it to a whole other level.

"Tell me what Dixie?" Nick asks.

"Nothing, just that I stayed at Noah and Markell's last night" I lie. I try to match my brown eyes to Noah's in hopes that he will stop this now but he looks away immediately.

"Tell him Dixie or I will" Dixie growls and I begin to cry.

"Nick.. I..me and Noah have been.." I start. Noah's angry face shifts to smug. I can't believe I spent the night with him, last night it felt amazing but I knew I would end up regretting it. I just didn't know it would get this bad first.

"Oh my god" Nick stutters and his eyes begin to water. How could I do this to him? What the hell was I thinking? Nick is so kind and Noah is cruel enough to make me tell Nick about us in front of him. His hands go to his forehead and he shakes his head.

"How could you Dixie? After everything we have been through? When did this start?" Tears stream down his face from his blue eyes. I have never felt this terrible, I caused those tears. I look over at Noah and then back to Nick. My hate for Noah consumes me and I shove him back instead of answering Nick. Noah is caught off guard and stumbles backwards he steadies himself before he falls.

"Nick, I am so sorry. I don't know what I was thinking." I am being honest, I don't know what the hell I was thinking.

I suppose I was thinking that Noah could be decent and maybe I could break up with Nick and date Noah. How stupid can I be? Or that I could stay away from Noah and Nick would never know about what happened between us. The problem is that I can't stay away from Harry. I am too far gone, too far under his spell, and he didn't hesitate to curse me.

Both are stupid and naïve options but I am haven't made one good choice since I have met Noah.

"I don't know what you were thinking either, I don't even know you anymore" Nick shouts and walks towards the door.

"Nick please! Wait!" I scream and rush after him. Noah grabs my arm and tries to pull me back.

"Don't touch me! I can't believe you! This is low Noah, even for you" I scream and jerk my arm out of his grasp. I push him again. I have never pushed anyone in my life except him, multiple times.

"If you go after him, I am done" He says and my mouth falls open. Done with that?

"Done? Done with what? Fucking with my emotions? I hate you!! You can't end something that never began" I say, my voice no longer shouting. His hands fall to his sides and his mouth opens but no words come out.

"Nick!" I call and rush out the door. I run down the hall and finally catch up to him in the parking lot. He notices me and walks faster.

"Nick, please listen. I am sorry, so sorry. I was drinking, I know that isn't an excuse but I.." I wipe my eyes and his face softens.

"I can't listen to anymore.." he says. His eyes are red. I reach for his hand and he pulls away.

"Nick please, I am so sorry. Please forgive me" I can't lose him and Noah in one day. Even though Noah was never mine and never would be, it still hurts to see his newest level of hatred for me. Especially after the way he held me and called my name in his sleep.

"I just need some time, Dixie. I don't know what to think" He says and runs his hair over his perfectly gelled hair.

"Okay" I sigh in defeat. He just needs time to get over this and we can go back to normal.

"I love you Dixie" he says and catches me by surprise when he kisses my forehead and climbs into his car.
