Chapter 14 - Under The Moonlight

I searched for him everywhere but I can't seem to find him. Noah's not like this, I know he just wants to get away from Shawn, his mind was clouded with so much thoughts which confused him what to do.. He's not the type of person who can hide his feelings, he can cry out around you or even break down in front of you.. As long as you won't try to help him overcome it. I know he's weird, but that's his way of moving on. I can't induct him what to do..

It's already seven in the evening and still Noah's nowhere to be found. I rest for a bit, I can feel my legs hurt so I sit on the chair behind the bar and look around, patiently waiting for Noah to walk by. The shop was left empty earlier, so I texted Vin to close it since he also has a key on the shop. I have no choice but to leave it to him, I don't want to leave Noah either..

"Where are you?" I am terribly worried about him. Where could he be now?

When I finally rest, I quickly stands up and walks to the beach. Maybe he's here walking around the shore, he couldn't possibly attempted to swim across the beach to cut his own life. I know he couldn't.

What if he does?

I run as fast as I can to search for him. That jerk. He don't know how tired I was looking for him for about two hours! I can't believe that he walks out like a freakin' woman!

I looked at every people who's near the shore, but they're not Noah. I also grabbed a man's hand and I mistook for Noah. I don't know what to do anymore. He hasn't appear until now, maybe something bad happens to him. No matter how hard I search for him, I always end up failing it. It is so much frustrating that he's not answering my calls! Damn it!

While I'm calling him, I heard the fireworks beautifully spreading across the sky. I can't help but to smile, if only Noah was here I would feel so much better now. I hope I'll find him soon.

I smile then tries to call him again, I can't give up.

He keeps on ignoring my calls and it's getting more frustrating for me! I'm the only one who cares for him, how dare he tries to ignore me?!

I let out a heavy sigh and harshly drop my body on the sand, I need to calm down first..

"How dare them, fuck!" I heard a man's voice on my side.

"What do they think of how I feel? Am I that stupid to just let it go and forget? What a cruel people!" Then I finally familiarize the voice. It's Noah! He's beside me, oh my gosh. What a jerk, he didn't even noticed me.

He's now drinking again, lots of empty bottles beside him while his eyes are puffy. I know he cried. I smile when he still didn't notice me, he just keep on drinking while looking at the sea unhappy.

"Not because he sacrificed, he has the right to hurt me. Should I just beat him until I feel satisfied?" I stare at him. "No, I'll probably go to jail," He shakes his head while pouting.

He's cute but I can't find myself smiling at it. It makes me more sad for seeing him like that.

That's what you get for loving too much, boss. Look at yourself, you're not cool to me anymore.. You're now getting more attractive to me for pouting like that.

I stands up and fix myself before walking in front of him. I smile when he looks up to face me, he even looks cute now that he's staring at me like he don't know me. He's always doing that, has he not memorize my face yet? How can he?

He moves closer and slowly finding out who I am. I laugh when he squeeze his eyes like a baby so I quickly move closer to him. Our face are just a few inches now, I blush when he moves again so I began to close my eyes waiting for him to kiss me..

I feel my hands getting cold and my heart beats like a drum pulsing my ears rapidly. And then...

"Raine?" I heard his voice, questioning and wondering so I immediately open my eyes.

"Oh, boss.." I blushed.

"What are you doing here?" His face are already burning, sign that he's drunk.

"I was just passing by, then I saw you here.."

"I was drinking,"

He scratch his face while his eyes are sleepy. I don't know what will happen to him if I didn't found him here. Maybe he'll spend his whole night here on the shore.

"I think you're already drunk,"

"Oh! You can see that, huh? Hahahahaha!" He laughs and points me out.

"You look bad," I grinned.

"Why? Will you hurt me too for being bad looking, huh?"

Now, what is this?

"What?"

"Are you here to seduce me then hurt me after like what they did?" He drinks again.

"Do you think I can?" I mocked him.

"Why would you ask me? Am I the one who betrays?"

"You know what?"

"What?" He asks.

"She don't deserve you.."

I tried to understand Dana but I don't have any reason to understand her. Even just a little bit, nothing.

"And I don't deserved her, because I'm a bad looking guy,"

"Stop saying that!" I hissed.

"Why, Raine? Am I good looking to you?" He looks at me and stared. Oh no, I can't blush.

"What if you do? Will you try to seduce me?" I shout at him.

He paused then looked down. Maybe he's drunk already, I have to carry him on my back again that I used to. It's okay I like him anyway, I can carry him forever.

"Do you like me?" I didn't expect him to ask. My eyes widen and gulp my remaining saliva, gross..

"Answer me, Raine.." He moves closer until our eyes met. He stared at my lips and bit his. It can't be more romantic than him looking at me like this and I'm surprise for what he do next.

He kissed me, passionately under the moonlight and I can't help myself but to kiss him back with the same eagerness.

I hope you like me too, Noah..
