for Noah, and then I spot him. He’s standing with a crowd, laughing and a girl is hanging from his arm. She’s standing so close to him, she can be considered one of his body parts.
I start to walk in their direction. The girl takes hold of Noah’s face and pulls him down, offering her mouth to him.
I stop in the middle of the beer garden, not sure why I’m feeling jealous. I watch Noah’s head starting to lower to hers and suddenly that blinding headache is back, stabbing at my skull.
Someone bumps into me and I drop my coke to the floor, letting it splash at my feet. I grab my head as a memory of Noah assaults me.
It’s dark as I watch Noah walk towards me, naked.
I can see him clearly, but nothing else. My heart starts to race and I’m not sure why.
A heavy arm falls around me and the stench of beer wafts over me.
I try to pull away when a deep voice slurs near my ear, “Aww … come on, baby, don’t be like that.”
I shove as hard as I can at the man and hiss, “Let go!”
“Am I not good enough for the likes of you?” he growls, pulling me closer to him.
The pounding in my head gets worse and it’s making it hard to fight the man off.
“Let go,” someone hisses, and when I look up I’m relieved to see it’s Noah. He takes hold of my arm and pulls me toward him, and I’m so glad to see him. “She’s with me!” he snaps at the man and I don’t even look behind me to see if the man leaves. My eyes are on Noah and remembering the memory of him being naked makes me flush red.
“I’m just…” I point behind me, feeling flustered. “I’m gonna go. This was a bad idea.”
I turn and walk away as fast as I can, but Noah catches up and says, “He didn’t hurt you, did he? Cause I’ll kick his ass!”
I shake my head, walking faster. “I’m fine.”
Noah grabs hold of my arm, pulling me to a stop. “Hey, you don’t look fine. Talk to me.”
I glance up at him from under my lashes and I can feel my cheeks are on fire. “I just remembered something, and I don’t know…” I suck in a deep breath and then just blurt it out, “did we have sex?”

Chapter Twenty-Seven
Noah~
I’m not sure I heard right. “Say what?”
“Did we sleep together?” she whispers and her whole face flushes red. I’ve never seen Amy blush and it makes a warmth I’ve never felt around her, spread through my chest.
Then I remember her question and my eyebrows shoot up. “No, why would you ask that?”
She pulls her arm free and starts to walk again, looking a little flustered. I jog after her, catching up fast.
When she notices that I’m not leaving it, she waves her hand lamely in the air. “I had a memory of you being naked, and I…” she trails off, her face a rare crimson sight at the moment.
I actually like this new blushing side of her and I can’t resist teasing her. “So you thought we had sex?” She shoots me a dark scowl, the one I’ve missed seeing, and it makes the warmth in my chest spread through my body. Fuck I missed that look. I want to see it again, so I ask loudly, “So you think I look good naked?”
“Hush, Noah!” she tries to quiet me, grabs my hand and pulls me towards the pier where there are less people. She turns on me, her eyes flaming, and I can’t help but smile. “People will hear!” she snaps at me.
Our eyes lock, mine laughing and her eyes flashing with embarrassment. I take a step closer to her, lift my hands to her face, cupping her cheeks. Time comes to a screeching halt as I lean in.
I watch her breathing speed up, her eyes widen and her lips part. An unfamiliar feeling uncurls in my chest and I lean closer, not sure what I’m doing.
Just as our lips are about to touch she pulls away. She turns her face to the side and bites her bottom lip. For a moment I’m tempted to throw caution to the wind and to just kiss her, but I step back, letting my hands fall to my sides.
“Yeah,” I say, searching for anything to
