THE KISSING BOOTH

UNDERSTANDING

I opened up my computer and noticed that Noah had called multiple times. I start listening to the messages

Message1: Shelly please call me back. I need to see you I didn't mean it.

Message2: Shelly baby please don't do this. I love you

Message3: Shelly never mind I am coming home.

That is when I knew I had to call so I call him back and next thing I know there is this strange guy on my screen.

Guy: Ohhh, hey there sexy why don't you come over so we can meet I'm Jake

Me: Where is Noah

Jake: ahh, come on he is not interested in anyone other than his fiancée give me a shot

all of a sudden I hear "Jake who's that is that Elle" Then another guy is in front of the screen and I hear

guy 2: Hey Elle I am Mark Flynn's roommate hang on he wants to talk to you

I hear knocking on a door then "Flynn" "Leave it Mark if she won't f*****g call me back I am outa here I am not losing her now. I finally have her after all these years this is not worth it." "Dude I am trying to tell you she is on the computer"

I see the computer move again and hear a door close then I see him

Noah: Oh, Shelly baby please please forgive me

Me: Noah, you broke my heart thinking I would ever be unfaithful to you

Noah: No, no I never thought you were cheating on me

Me: Then what Noah

Noah: Tuppen called and said Lee was at the party but he hadn't seen you and had just had a chance to talk to Lee and Lee told him you were at home I got worried. Didn't help me any, when my asshat cousin messaged me that you two were home alone. Then I got upset that you would put yourself in a situation where he could try to take advantage. Then I call you and you ignore my calls I thought you were in trouble. Then we had that misunderstanding so I called Lee he told me not to be a douche that mom and dad would never leave you alone with Blake because they know he has been harassing you.

Me: but I said I was unpresentable

Noah: I know I thought maybe he hurt you and you didn't want me to see. I take it you said you would call me back because you were in nothing but a towel.

Me: Yes, I saw how upset you were when your roommate saw me in my bikini so I figured you would be furious if I answered in a towel only

Noah: Baby I want to thank you for that

Me: Babe I do miss you but you have to stay there for us for our future family

Noah: Really Shelly you think of our children how many do you want

Me: I don't know Noah at least two having a sibling is great don't you think.

Noah: you better believe it

I start to giggle

Noah: really Shelly now you giggle when we are being so serious right now.

Me: Just thought wouldn't it be funny if Rachel and I have a baby on the same day at the same time like our moms did. To have me and Lee carry on our mother's tradition.

Noah: That would be great but I don't think those two are ready yet. Wait Shelly is there something I don't know

Me: Laughing no, Noah calm down I am not pregnant.

Noah: ahh, o.k.

Me: What you want me pregnant

Noah: Well not yet we should wait till one of us or both of us graduate from college first I guess. So the reason I was calling you even though I thought you were at the party is one, I wanted you to meet some of my friends and two so I can say hi to the gang. What do you say we take care of one of those now?

Me: Yeah, why not just keep me away from that Jake guy he hit on me

Noah: Oh, really

I see the computer moving than I can tell he put it down and then I hear

Noah: Jake what's this I hear you hit on my fiancée

I see Jake turn hear "oh s**t" and he was gone. I cracked up laughing I say "so, babe you already started your bad boy rep there huh. He just chuckles and says "when it comes to you I am always a bad boy" I spent the rest of the night with him introducing me to his friends. I didn't mind missing Duncan's party. I got to go to a party in Harvard with my babe although it was via the internet I was still happy.
