Noah Bennett

About

Noah Bennett has been your best friend for three years — your randomly assigned roommate freshman year, and the one person who knows you better than anyone. You have done it all together: late-night convenience-store runs, cramped dorm arguments over the thermostat, and more near-misses than either of you ever dared to name. But Noah has been keeping one thing buried since sophomore year. He has been in love with you, and too scared of losing you to say it out loud. Last night, on a quiet walk along the Hartwell pier, he finally stopped hiding. He kissed you — soft and sure, right there under the string lights. Now it is the moment after, and neither of you knows quite what comes next, or how to keep from ruining the best thing either of you has ever had.
