Noah's POV
Noah was angry. Sunglasses had a car drags into his LITTLE BROTHER'S CAR nearly killing Elle and everyone inside and then had dared DARED to show up at the hospital. Noah was about to punch that dude when Lee cane and told him Elle was awake. Deep down he thanked God that he didn't have to. The nurse lead them down a white hall. It smelled like hospital. Noah hated this particular scent because he knew it all too well. The nurse stopped and opened up a door. They went inside and saw Elle. Sitting in a hospital gown in the middle of a bunch of machines and cords, hugging her younger brother. Noah stood against the wall to afraid to let go. Elle looked up at him after Lee, his mom, and her dad again hugged her. Noah walked over. And gave her a platonic hug. And said, "You had us real worried Elle." Everyone laughs including Elle. He sat down in a chair by the door for the whole afternoon there watching waiting for an opportunity to talk to Elle alone. It never came.
Elle's POV
When Noah hugged her she felt a buzz go through her body. No no no. She needed to get over him. But god was it hard. He was one of those people who not only had a personality but also had a presence. Every time Noah would walk Elle's heart would pound and butterflies would swirl in her stomach and her hands would shake. Every time he walked into a room she knew it before she saw him. She felt his eyes on her before she looked behind her. She was in immense pain. The doctor said he had broken three ribs and had a three inch deep gash in her side from a broken piece of the seat belt buckle. She desperately wanted to go back to sleep. She caught herself wishing for Noah to lay with her and stroke her hair and kiss her good night. She stared at her lap she felt so small among all the cords and machines. She caught Noah's eye as she scanned the room. She smiled. He let out a breath like he'd been holding it for hours. She looked back down at her hands in her lap.

"Hey Rob why don't some of us go and get Elle some lunch and someone can stay behind to watch her if she needs anything." Noah's mom said. His father nodded.
"Noah you don't mind staying behind do you?" His father asked. Elle didn't know if they knew how she felt or just wanted to get a chance to have some family discussion without him.
"Nah it's cool." Noah said. His father nodded and left with everyone after the 'be right back's' ended.
"Noah I-" she didn't finish her sentence. His arms were around her. Gently hugging her. She drew back. He looked at her with an apology on the ready. But she kissed him before he could say anything. She didn't know what cane over her but she wouldn't push him away this time. It was soft and slow. He held her gently. He pulled back softly.
"What was that for?" Elle immediately felt awkward.
"I-I don't know. I guess for saving me?" She said it more like she was asking a question. Dammit Elle, you had one job. Get over Noah. Now you're kissing him!!! She had to control herself. It was that anesthesia aftermath right? Yeah totally. "Look Elle you're not really yourself right now I don't think you know what you're doing I-I think you need to rest for now." She could hear the pain in Noah's voice. Elle gave up on being considerate.
"Noah what happened? Why can't you say anything or text anyone anymore?" Noah sighed. "I can't tell you Elle. And if I did you'd be in much more danger than this car crash."
Noah's POV
Elle looked like I'd just slapped her.
"What do you mean by that Noah?"
"I mean what's going on with me isn't safe for you to know. And that's all you'll get so I suggest you stop asking." Noah sighed. He was tired of worrying and stressing. He was tired of all the games and the lies. And in a moment of weakness he made a mistake.

"Noah tell me."
"Okay fine I was ambushed by a gang at Harvard and I work for them now and I can't text or call you because they'd hurt anyone I was in contact with if I messed up got it!" He yelled. Tears started rolling down Elle's cheeks. He'd made her cry.
"You are bad at communication, so you've made up a story to make excuses? Is that what this has come to?" Tears we're coming faster.
"Elle it's TRUE!These guys found out about you and had a car hit Lee's car. They caused the fucking crash!" A look of horror spread on Elle's face.
"What?" She asked. Noah realised that he should of never said anything. Now not only was she in danger, she would hate him forever.

Godfather Of Champions
This is a story about the pursuit of victory.— «I subscribe only to the theory of victory. I only pursue victory. As long as I am able to obtain victory, I don’t care if it’s total football or counterattack. What is the ultimate goal of professional soccer? In my opinion, it is victory, and the pinnacle of victory is to become the champions. I am a manager. If I don’t wish to lose my job or be forgotten by the people, there’s only one path for me to take, and that is to lead the team in obtaining victories, in obtaining championship titles!»The main character was not well-liked by people.— «⋯We conducted a survey which had been deemed by Manager Tony Twain as extremely meaningless. In a random street survey conducted, ninety-three percent of those surveyed chose the option ‘I hate Tony Twain’, while only seven percent chose the option ‘This person is rather decent, I like him’. It is worth noting that nobody chose the option ‘Who is Tony Twain? I don’t know him’. Mark, do you know why Manager Twain felt that our survey was very meaningless?» Parker, a reporter from laughed loudly and said when he was being interviewed by BBC.But there were also people who were madly in love with him.— When Tony Twain was forced to talk about the survey conducted by during an interview, his reply was : «I am happy, because Nottingham Forest’s fans make up seven percent of England’s population.»And he did not seem to care about how the others saw him.— «What are you all trying to make me say? Admit that I am not popular, and everywhere I go will be filled with jeers and middle fingers. You all think I will be afraid? Wrong! Because I am able to bring victory to my team and its supporters. I don’t care how many people hate me and can’t wait to kill me, and I also won’t change myself to accommodate the mood of these losers. You want to improve your mood? Very simple, come and defeat me.»His love story had garnered widespread attention.— «Our reporters took these pictures at Manager Tony Twain’s doorsteps. It clearly shows that Shania entered his house at 8.34pm and she did not leave the house throughout the night at all. But Manager Tony Twain firmly denies, and insists that that was merely the newest-model inflatable doll which he had ordered.He was the number one star of the team.— «⋯ Became the spokesperson of world-wide famous clothing brands, shot advertisements, frequented the fashion industry’s award ceremonies, endorsed electronic games, has a supermodel girlfriend. His earnings from advertisements exceed his club salary by seventeen times, owns a special column in various print medias, publishing his autobiography (in progress), and is even said that he is planning to shoot an inspirational film based off his own person experiences! Who can tell me which part of his life experiences is worthy of being called ‘inspirational’? Hold on⋯. Are you all thinking that I’m referring to David Beckham? You’re sorely mistaken! I’m talking about Manager Tony Twain⋯.»He was very knowledgeable about Chinese soccer.— «⋯ I’ve heard about it, that Bora gifted four books to his manager Mr. Zhu before your country’s national team’s warm up match. After which, the team lost 1:3 to a nameless American team from Major League Soccer. The new excuse that Mr. Zhu gave for losing the match, was that Bora gifted «books» (‘books’ and ‘lose’ are homophones in the Chinese language). Here, I recommend that you guys find out what that one specific book is. Which book? Of course the one that caused you all to score a goal. After that, tell me the title of the book. Before every match, I will gift ten copies of that same book to you. In that case, won’t you all be able to get a triumphant 10:0 win over your opponents every time?» An excerpt taken from Tony Twain’s special column in a certain famous Chinese sports newspaper.He was loved and hated by the press.— «He has a special column in at least four renowned print media, and he is able to get a considerable amount of remuneration just by scolding people or writing a few hundred words of nonsense weekly. While we have to contemplate hard about our drafts for three days before our boss is pleased with it. In an article inside his special column, he scolded and called all of the media ‘son of a bitch’, announcing that he hated the media the most. But every time he publishes an article, we flock towards him like flies which had spotted butter. Why? Because the readers like to read his news and see him scold people. I dare to bet with you, and Manager Tony Twain knows clearly in his heart as well, that even though he says that he hates us, he knows that the present him cannot do without us. Similarly, we also cannot do without him. Is this ultimately considered a good or a bad thing?» Bruce Pearce, a reporter from said with a face of helplessness when talking about Tony Twain.But no matter the case, his players were his most loyal believers.— Gareth Bale, «No no, we never had any pressure when playing on our home grounds. Because the pressure is all on the manager. As long as we see him standing by the side of the field, all of us will feel that we will be able to win that match. Even the football hooligans are like meek lambs in front of him!» (After saying this, he began to laugh out loudly)The reply from George Wood, the team captain of Nottingham Forest, was the most straightforward. «We follow him because he can bring us victory.»The legendary experience of Tony Twain, the richest, most successful, most controversial manager with the most unique personality!Debuting this summer.Thank you for reading.
