Daisy’s POV
‘Oh well in that . . .’ Seona’s voice trails off as her eyes widen, her gaze swinging from me to Noah and back again as the jock slides his hand into mine, squeezing it. ‘Wait . . . what??’
Silence descends upon the room, everyone in the room freezing in place as I force myself to hold my best friend’s gaze.
It’s Nora that breaks it first, her hands clasping together, as she beams widely at Noah and I. ‘Oh you two! I wondered when you’d finally get here! I’m so happy for you both!’
The older woman moves towards us, hugging first her son gently then me a little harder, wrapping me in her warmth as I hug her back again, relief washing over me.
My best friend still seems to be grappling with what I said though, her mouth hanging open as she stares at her mother.
‘You knew??’
