Notes: LOOK LOOK IT’S NOAH AND JOY AND IT’S NOT ADULT RATED

Noah was so nervous when he and Joy started their relationship again. Jackson and Chloe’s full approval made it seem even more like a dream, and part of him was just determined that he was going to wake up soon. He had dreamed about Joy coming back into his life before, and he had heard of people dreaming up alternate years, lifetimes, in one night of sleep. For all he knew, not only was Joy coming back into his life a dream, but so was his time with Jackson, and Noah was absolutely certain he would go insane with grief if that happened to be the case. He couldn’t lose her again, or lose Jackson at all.

So the first time he kissed her again was less about kissing her, and more about making sure she was real. He hesitantly cupped her face, barely touching her, and softly pressed his lips against hers. Joy tilted her head for a better angle, and he felt tears drip onto his fingers. He wasn’t sure if they were his or hers, only able to whisper her name as he wrapped his arms around her as tight as he felt he could without hurting her, their lips pressed together fiercely. He felt like he was trying to push her into his soul.

“Joy,” he murmured against her lips, sighing in a way he didn’t know he could. He couldn’t believe or describe how overwhelmingly happy he was in that moment. “My Joy.”

I can really feel Noah's longing and his fear that he'll lose what he loves most again, and the ending is really sweet.
