Chapter 16

Lorelai's POV:

"I want to believe you Noah but I can't. It's the same as me trying to forgive you but I can't bring myself to do it. You may be a good person but you haven't done anything right to prove it. People judge by actions Noah and from what they have seen you do, you haven't done anything thing that can prove that you are a good guy, or let people trust you. And to be honest with you I don't know if I can feel safe with you, it's more likely that I feel scared every time I see you. I told you once that I want you to change, I want to feel safe when I see you Noah but to my bad luck every time I see you I feel scared. What makes me even more scared of you is what you have done to that poor guy inside." I finished and when I looked into his eyes all I saw was guilt and sadness which was proof that he was the one that did this to Scott.

"Come on Lorelai, you seriously believe that I did that to him?" He looked me in the eye waiting for an answer.

"Yes," I muttered.

"I may a bad person, I may have bullied you and hurt you physically and emotionally,I am a monster fine! But one thing I am sure of is that I am not that terrible to this extent." He uttered.

"Oh really?" I asked.

"Oh yes, I may be many things, but lying is not one of them. You could ask Shawn." He said without hesitation.

"Well tell me where is Shawn now? He left you because of who you are and one by one all of your friends will leave you and so is your family, you will be friendless and may be homeless because of who you are!!" I said.

"Goodbye Noah," I uttered and left him standing there because I know one thing which is if I stood there any longer I will believe him and might as well forgive him but I can't be this weak in front of him I have to fight this strange feeling and urge inside of me.

"Lori please wait!" he exclaimed.

"GOODBYE NOAH," I shouted at him so he can hear me.

Noah's POV:

"GOODBYE NOAH" She shouted, probably so I can hear her, anyway why are they all accusing me of what happened to Scott, I just ditched school for a long ride to clear my mind, and poof Noah you hurt Scott so bad that he is in the hospital right now. Oh god, I need to start fixing things in my life, Elena was right I might be a good person but all my actions show otherwise. Okay let's start by apologizing to Scott I was a terrible person to him and if I want to get Shawn and Lori's trust back then I need to show to the most person I hurt most that I am a trustworthy person, anyways I made my way to the reception, asked her what room he was in then headed towards the elevator. Room 202 I kept reminding myself so I won't forget, after searching for the room I finally found it wasn't too hard though.

I knocked on the door and waited until I heard someone say come in. Holy shit he isn't alone goddamn it. I braced myself and entered the room.

"Noah? What the hell are you doing here?" Scott asked me as soon as I entered the room. Thank god he wasn't unconscious before I can say anything his father thought I was the one who did this and I would think the same thing if I were in his shoes judging by Scott's reaction.

"So you're the one that did that to my son you are crazy I swear to god I am going to avenge him and it's not gonna be good you crazy son of a" his father was cut off by Scott oh thank god.

"Dad he isn't the one that did that now can you leave both of us alone I need to talk to him," Scott said.

"Oh, well, then excuse my outburst, I am sure you understand how I feel." His father apologized, well I guess he doesn't know that I bullied him well bully but all of that is gonna be over I am making a vow not to bully anyone anymore and be a good person.

"No, it's fine no hard feelings," I said smiling. His father smiled back and then both of his parents left the room. Now it was my turn to do the talking.

"Before you say anything I am here to apologize for everything I have ever done to you, the reason I bullied you was because I was jealous and I saw that coach liked you a lot and Shawn told me that he was planning on making you team captain and to be honest with you I felt furious that someone was gonna take my place and so I did what I did. After that Shawn told me that the coach was planning on making you team captain after we leave the school since we are seniors and we are gonna leave the school and the team will need a new captain I know that what I am saying is no excuse for what I did to you but I am truly and utterly sorry Scott I am not that monster that everyone thinks I am." The last part came out as a whisper.

"I believe you Noah and I also believe that you can change for the better, the only reason I didn't tell the coach and my parents about what you did to me is that I look up to you and you are my idol, Noah. I forgive you." He smiled when he stopped talking and I felt like shit because I bully him in the end, it turns out that he looks up to me oh my god I am a terrible person.

"Scott, can I ask for a favor?" I asked him.

"Yeah sure anything." He replied quickly.

"Can you tell Shawn that I am not the one who did this?" I asked him again.

"Yeah sure." He said but then he looked down at his hands and didn't say anything else so I took this as my cue to go.

"Anyway thank you for forgiving me it means a lot," I uttered.

"It was Dylan." He said.

"What?" I asked.

"The one that did this to me was Dylan." He muttered.

"Okay, Scott, don't worry everything will be fine," I mumbled as I made my way out of the room.
