I cant believe that he told her . I would've never thought that he would. I know the he told me that he would, but I figured that he would of wanted to wait to tell her in a more private place and alone. I guess that he wanted to be honest. I know that it was hard for him to tell. Now that he has told her all he has to do is tell Colonel Mayer and then the worst would be done with.
Noah moved so he was closer to Maddie.
"Maddie I know that you shocked about this. I know that its probably the last thing that you would've suspected." He said to her.
"You can say that again."
"I think that I should leave you guys to talk." I said and then started to get up.
"Actually I would like you to stay. I want you to hear this to ." He said to me and then looked back to Maddie.
What could he possibly want me to hear? I guess that I will be staying then. So I nodded slightly and then sat back down.
"I want you to listen to me. I want you to know the whole story here. I don't want you to interrupt. I want you too listen. OK." He told her.
"OK." She said.
"When I was in my first year of high school back in Branson I met this guy and over a period of 2 weeks we basically knew everything about each other. It was like we knew each other since we were kids. So we kept hanging out each day and then he told me that he had feelings for me."
I looked at him in shock.
"I had feelings for him too. So with in a two days time we were going out. We dated for about 2 years. But of course me being me, the one that always messes things up, we broke up. We broke up because he wanted me to tell the Colonel and I knew that he wasn't going to accept it so I wouldn't do it. But in the aftermath of the brake up I was so totally confused so I ended up telling him anyways."
Once again I was so shocked. He looked at me.
"He tried many things including hypnotising me. But when that didn't work he sent me away to boot camp. I spent about a year running drills and doing all that
kind stuff. Then I finally got to leave. I left that place with jumping back into the closet because I knew that the next step would've probably been the army.
I didn't want to go through that again. So when I go home I made this deal with my father that I would forget about everything that I told him about me being
gay. But I gave him one condition. I would come here to Oakdale as the first step to becoming what I wanted to be."
He looked back to Maddie.
"Of course he told me that I could come. So I got a job interning at WOAK as you know. It was OK for awhile then Luke dropped those tapes and we touched and I know that nothing was going to be the same. It wasn't until we went to Branson that I found out that he was gay. Then it kinda took off from there. When we kissed Luke wanted me to tell you. To tell the truth I wanted to tell you too."
I never thought that Noah ever would have gone thought that much.
"I know that you think that we were sneaking around behind your back. In some way your kinda right. But it's more of lying to you than anything. So if you could be mad at me for that and not Luke. Luke didn't do anything. I did. I put all of us though this. So it's my fought. I don't want Luke getting blamed for something I clearly did."
"No ones to blame here. Love doesn't come often as it should. When it does come it usually doesn't matter who it is. They say that love is blind. We in our case it was. It came up on us and just took us b surprise. I mean I didn't want to fall for someone straight again. But somehow I knew Noah was different. I knew that you were different. It was just this thing that I couldn't explain."
I looked at Noah.
"I want to tell you that I should be the one that should be apologising put you though this so that I could be happy. I didn't care about you and how you felt I just wanted you to love me like I loved you. I want you. I do. But I should have never did this this way. It would have saved everyone from hurt and pain."
"You made me be me. That's all you did. You just made it hard and confusing but you really did help me." Noah said.
"WOW!" Maddie said look to me to Noah.
"what?" I said.
"Its just the way you guys look at each other."
She said pausing for a second. I looked at Noah.
We don't look at each other any differently. Whats so different at the way we look at each other.
"It's a look that is passionate and deep. It's a strong thing. You guys clearly do love each other. I cant believe that I didn't see it though. I cant stand in between love. But this is going to take a little time getting use to this whole thing. But I do wish that you would've told me sooner. I understand why you didn't. I was kinda shocked when you told me. But other than that I am happy for you guys."
Did she just say that? She just said that she is happy for us. wow!
