Chapter 13 - Touch
Noah pov
It's weekend, we arrived at the mall, Allen said he wanted something for his girl. He wanted to buy something that will make her smile. I would say he forcefully brought me here with him. As much he knows about Me And Marwah . I knows his too. He told me his feelings for gicel and he is serious about her.
That remind me of my love, last time I got her a Beautiful diamond bracelet. She didn't even care, plus she got mad. I wish she really wore it once.
For me.
The bracelet is still with me and in my room. Which honestly, I'm not sure when I'll try to give her again.
How do I get her attention? as I was thinking about that in my mind. I accidentally bumped in to someone.
Then I heard some gasps
"David are you okay?" I heard a familiar voice I look to see Nathaly and gicel picking him up.
After that, their gazes look at me. "Noah?" Nathaly said looking at me surprised.
My eyes moved to a figure behind them, coming in view.
My love.
What is she doing here? With David? Anger built inside me.
Her eyes widen looking at me.
I clearly told David to stay away from my love.
Then?
She avoids my gaze and looks at gicel giving her a phone, which gicel passed to David.
Suddenly david smirk looking at me. "Ouch" he said touching his head.
"You okay?" Everyone inquire him. He looks at me
"Sorry" David said stepping back
I heard Allen saying, "Watch where the fuck you're going." I was gazing at my love throughout the time.
"Come on Allen, it's fine; it was only an accident."Gicel said as she observed me.
"Still" Allen said.
"Yes, he even apologize noah." Nathaly stated.
"Let's go." David said as he slowly turned to go. Marwah and Nathaly followed him as he went.
Without waiting for Allen response, Gicel said, "I'll see you later," to Him before turning around and walking away.
Without wasting any second I walk towards my love.
"Love." When I call her, she turns to face me and looks just as stunning as always.
Nathaly and David who was walking ahead. Allen quickly walk besides gicel, he told her something in her ear and they walk towards different direction.
Now it was me and my love.
"Why is David with you?" She ignored me and walked away faster.
When David turn around to see us, he stops
"Babe" I call her Again.
She stops and turns towards me "I'm not your babe" she says breaking my heart.
Why is she acting like this?
I smile at her, ignoring her glare at me.
Just then David stood besides my love. "Is there any problem marwah?" David spoke.
That's it I couldn't take it " Who are you? Interfering in our matter?" I spoke in a serious tone and step forward, while David too stepped forward.
Nathaly and Marwah who looked at each other worriedly.
Marwah who fear that we start a fight again.
Nathaly immediately grabbed his hand and pulled it away from me while saying, "David, let's go." He smirk and look at me saying "She's not yours, she will leave you-" I lost it, how dare he? I will fucking kill him.
I was about to walk towards him, when My love stand in from me, blocking my way.
"Noah, please please stop," she said looking at me.
I felt jealous and how dare he even come between us.
I shake my head and was about to walk past her, I felt her soft hand on my wrist Holding it tightly.
That's it, it was like my world stop, my anger everything left me. I felt calm feeling her touch, i realized something that, David was out of view and it was just us, So an idea came to my mind.
I pretend that I was still mad so we can stay like this.
"No, where he is at?" I said looking around,
The next time she did was, she hold both my hands tightly Stepping close to me "are you not going to listen to me? Huh? Noah please calm down! It's not a big deal." She said, it was more like a scolding.
She kept on talking while I am lost in her eyes.
Her eyes her fix on me. She suddenly left my right hand, and she pointed her finger at me.
"Now do you understand?" She said breathing heavily.
I make an effort not to smile as I bring her closer me while holding both of her hands in mine, which fit snugly in mine. She turns to face me with wide eyes.
Realizing how close we were, she try to move but my grip was tight not that I will hurt her. I brought her hands near my chest.
"Noah!" She said meeting my eyes. I bend down my head so I can reach her hight, looking at her with such passion.
Ever since I first saw her, she has been on my mind. My emotions are getting stronger and stronger every day. I've stopped dating or sleeping with anyone. Since she is the only person in my heart, I find it repugnant to even look at anyone else.
"Don't look at like this, what is wrong with you? Leave me?" She said looking down, and trying to push me away.
"Look at you like what?" I said innocently.
She stops and looks at me "like....like..."
"Like I'm crazy in love with you." I finished her thought for her.
She sighs and closes her eyes before turning back to face me. "Step aside and don't touch me" She glares at me while genuinely speaking.
Her stern demeanor worries me for some reason, so I don't like it.
She moves back as I tentatively release her hands.
"Come let's go." I says and slowly walked besides her.
After a few seconds, I question her again "Why was he with you?" softly.
I stare at her, but she doesn't look at me "My mom and hers are close friends. She came with her son to the dinner my mum had invited her to."
I stop walking "so he came to your house."
Marwah nods as she stop in her place, "Did he do anything inappropriate" I question in serious tone.

POV ends
Marwah is conscious of his growing anger. "Noah, I need you to calm down first. No, he didn't do anything, and I invited Nathaly and Gicel to join us, so we weren't alone."
In an effort to calm himself down, Noah closed his eyes and put his hands in his pockets. "You know I don't have to worry about him coming close to you, because if you won't let me come close to you, then I am sure you won't let him," he smirked slowly walking.
"You know, maybe I will let him from now on" she said while his smirk dropped "And I will kill him" marwah stopped walking Look at him, "Noah, it's not funny, don't say that again. Why are you acting like this?"
"Because you are mine and mine alone. And he constantly gets in our way." In a serious tone, Noah stated
"Crazy, you're crazy that's what you are. Since when I become yours." "The moment I saw you."
She glare at him, and started walking away from him. When she felt a hand grab hers.
"Follow me, No questions" he said walking ahead with satisfied smile, while behind Marwah follow him looking down at their hands.
They enter the jewelry shop, that he came here before. The manger immediately came towards Noah
"Pack this for me, same design as last time" Noah said pointing towards the Diamond bracelet.
The manager gave a nod before leaving. A short while later, he returned and said, "Sir here," taking the bag from the man as they walked out.
Then he stop and look at her "I bought this for you, I know....you won't wear it, but please accept it. Wear it when your ready. I will wait, even tho if it takes years for you to wear it."
Marwah just look at him. She didn't know what to do. He forward the bag to her, she open her mouth to say something but close it "accept this or gave me hug....it will be a force one if you want to go that way" He threatened her.
"One..two...three-" when she grab the bag from him
Noah smile, "where do we go next?" Noah said looking around, Marwah glare at him.
As they walk in silence, he was smiling at her the whole time, "you are weird stop smiling!"
"Because I'm happy, that your with me. And we are spending some time together" Noah smile again.
"I bet, you use this line on every girl right" marwah roll her eyes.
"No, you're mistaken; because I'm obviously wealthy, attractive and more, people are naturally glad to be with me.BBut I'm not happy with them, as much I am happy to be with you."
She took her phone and texted the girls and let them know, she wants to leave. They too reply they wanted to leave and will meet her in the parking lot.
"I want to go home, noah. They're waiting for me in the parking lot." He stop in turn towards her.
He holds her hand hand tightly and pull her close.
Again
"No." He says and shake her head.
"What?" "I'm not leaving you." He says softly and pouting. She wanted to laugh at his reaction, but she didn't wanted to give him any sign that she's slowly falling for him.
"What did I tell you?" She says, as he puts her hands on his chest along with the small bag.
"What?" He questions her. "No touching!"
"Fine." He lets her go. "Thank you."
They later head to the parking lot. Everyone came at the same time.
Allen and Noah were standing besides each other and staring at their girl. They put their bags in the car, gicel hugged Allen and said bye.
"I will meet your house Marwah." David said glaring at Noah and walking to his car.
She nods without looking at noah, she got inside the car, Nathaly and gicel got inside too soon they left, leaving Noah and Allen behind.

After picking his mom, David left. Nathaly and gicel too left, after cleaning up Marwah head towards her room.
After few minutes, Layal knock on Marwah's door.
"Come in" marwah said who sat down on her bed.
Layal smile walking in. She sat on the bed near her holding her hand.
"I have been busy, and honestly we haven't talk in a while, Jaan what's on your mind these days. I know something is bothering you. And I feel like, you have been keeping it a secret." Layal touch her nose making her smile.
"It's about guy" Marwah said looking down.
"What... no way.. go on" she said looking at Marwah to continue.
"His name is Noah...Noah Jackson. He says that he likes me. Actually loves me. I told him many times, about our differences and reject him. But he won't listen to me...." Marwah breath in, not wanting to continue she for some reason felt uncomfortable.
She moved and grab the bag from the nearby table.
"He bought this bracelet for me....don't ask me why, i accepted this from him."
"God, this is pretty expensive. Is he that rich" Layla ask looking at the bracelet.
Marwah nods "But Mom, I don't wanna be in a haram relationship. Plus I don't wanna be in a relationship. I already told him. I wanna graduated, I wanna be independent" Layal hug her.
'But he makes me feel....something I don't want to feel.'
"Everything is going be fine, don't worry. Make dua to Allah if he was meant for you. He will be yours no matter what."
Marwah nodded "thank you mom"
"No worries jaan, come on go to sleep, its pretty late. Wait never mind tomorrow is Sunday which you don't have school"
Marwah smile "it's fine mom"
Marwah let out breath. She was thankful she had mom, that she can share her feelings. And she understands it. She came out of her thoughts. Because her cell phone was ringing. It was Noah,
She answer up the call.
Marwah: Salam Alaikum.
Noah: what?
Marwah: oh my bad, I forgot you don't say Salam.
Noah: how about we start saying it.
