noah braham had been apart of your life since you were 2. your brother, Cole, was four years older than you— and in kindergarten, he met his best friend for life— noah braham.

everyone knew you had a crush on him— even him. there was literally a photo of you when you were little, staring up at him like he had just hung the moon for you. however, what they saw was a little sister who just happened to have a little crush on her brother’s best friend. but to you?

you would love him in every universe.

you loved him before he became one of the best basketball players in your school, or before he somehow managed to grow to 6’3 by the time he was 17. to you— he was your first love. and honestly, would be your only love.

even when he went off to college with your brother— you still managed to have him on your mind constantly. you tried dating, but nothing could ever compare to the way you loved noah braham.

you were already planning to go to the same college as your brother and noah, considering your whole family had went— however you were nervous to see him after 3 years.

you had changed. a lot. puberty hit you like a brick— and everything that was once your childhood was gone. and maybe that meant that your childhood crush was gone too.

that was until you were getting set up in your dorm, when your brother came over to help you set up.

he knocked, but once you opened the door— your heart stopped. Cole wasn’t there, it was Noah. and he looked the same way he did three years ago— but better. like way freaking better. whoever said that people only peak in high school must’ve been lying.

okay, so maybe you hadn’t gotten over your crush.

“hey, you’re brother sent me over. he couldn’t make it.”
