TAKUMI WILLIAMSSunday came and by seven in the evening, Noah’s house looked nothing like it had ever looked since I moved in.Music filled the living room, people were scattered across almost every available space, and the kitchen had somehow become the busiest part of the entire house despite the fact that nobody had any business being in there.I stood by the counter, watching Caleb struggle to open a bottle while two girls behind him argued over what song should play next. “I almost can’t believe you actually got to throw this party.”“I told you I was going to, didn't I?” I smirked, looking around the house proudly. “Noah had no choice but to give in.”Caleb finally managed to get the bottle open and raised it in my direction. “You're saying that now, but give it another two hours when Noah comes home and sees what you've done to his house.”I laughed. Noah had left the house hours ago with the excuse of going to practice but I knew it was truly because he didn't want to be at t

TAKUMI WILLIAMSThe first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was the ceiling.The second was the fact that I wasn't in my room.I blinked a few times, staring at the unfamiliar angle above me before slowly turning my head.Noah was standing by the other end of the couch, a water bottle in his hand. He was already dressed, his hair still slightly damp as if he'd showered recently, and he looked completely awake.Unlike me.I groaned, pushing myself up slightly only for a dull headache to remind me that I had probably made some questionable decisions the night before. I looked around the living room. I squinted my eyes, noting how clean it was. Almost suspiciously clean.The empty bottles, cups and plates that had been scattered across the tables were gone. The music was obviously off, the couches were back where they belonged and there wasn't a single person in sight.I frowned. The house looked completely normal again.That was strange considering the last time I'd seen it, it wa

NOAH MASON I immediately dropped my cutlery, the sound having everyone look at me. I curled my fingers and wiped the corner of my lips, looking at my father straight in the eye. “What’s the matter?” I heard Sakura say to me. “Is something wrong?” I continued to stare at my dad, waiting for him to take the hint. To speak up. But he didn't. “Is there shrimp in this?” “Yes?” her expression changed as she looked between me and my father. “Do you not eat shrimp?” “I’m allergic,” I pushed the plate forward. “And I’m not really in the mood to die tonight so, no.” “Oh my God,” Sakura immediately dropped her cutlery, rising to her feet. She looked horrified, quickly taking the plate away from me. “I’m so sorry, Noah. I had no idea.”She looked uncomfortable, and for a moment, I felt a little bad for making the entire table awkward. "It's cool." “No, it’s not,” she kept on dragging the plate further away from me. “I should have known--”“You don't know me,” I cut her off, looking at her

NOAH MASON By the time Takumi and I finally made our way downstairs, dinner was already over.The tables were cleared, the bowl of pasta completely out of sight like it was never even there. My father was also out of sight and I could hear movements from the kitchen, most likely from Takumi’s mum. I looked around the area, my mind still somewhere between what had happened upstairs and the conversation we'd just had.I hadn’t expected Takumi to come upstairs to find me. But he did and even when I asked him to leave, he strangely didn't. I wasn’t sure what exactly I wanted when I asked him to leave and didn't really know what to make of it when he didn't. But before the thought could linger any longer, Sakura walked into the living room, looking glad to see me. “You’re here,” she wiped her hands over the apron. She looked around the table, her expression slightly changing as she glanced at the empty space my father once occupied. “Um, should I serve you now?”“I,” I checked the time

NOAH MASONI was already at the rink before the match started.My teammates moved around me as they got ready, talking among themselves and occasionally calling out to one another, repeating the instructions I’d given them as captain. Our coach also stood at one corner, watching us get ready and chipping in unnecessary comments once in a while. Tonight’s match was a serious one. We’d played with the Archers twice now with us winning the first match and them equalizing the second time. Tonight’s match was our final match against each other for a while and the last chance to set the record straight on who was better. The arena was quickly getting filled up even before the commencement of the match. I stood at one corner, observing the crowd while I adjusted the strap on my glove only to suddenly notice Rayna somewhere in the crowd.I immediately frowned. What was she doing here? We already broke up so there was no reason for her to attend my matches especially since she once admitted s
