Title: Second Guesses Author: emmileexo Rating: G, kinda fluffy Summary: For Noah, having Luke means having something to lose. Disclaimer: Don't own them
Noah never used to second guess himself.
He never really had the chance to. With his father, everything was laid out in a plan. Grow up, go to high school, join the Army, the end. The only time he rebelled was about college, but even then, he knew what he wanted to do.
Until Luke came in. But Noah's already broken a lot of old personal habits because of Luke.
He's sure that this is want he wants. But along the way, Noah's second guessed himself all the time. Every step of the way.
And it's because the difference now is Luke. Before, Noah didn't have a lot. But having Luke means that Noah has something to lose. Something precious and perfect and right. Looking at Luke causes that delicious feeling of forever to creep through his veins. And there's nothing in the world that could replace that.
So when Luke comes into the kitchen, doubting what they have, even for a moment, Noah is terrified. He can't go back to life without Luke. So he tells Luke the truth. That he's his happy ending, that they've got a long time to love each other. And no matter what doubts he has, Luke knows it too.
And Noah knows that whatever they have to deal with next will work out. They've only got the rest of their lives to deal with it.
