I’m not gonna lie; Noah is a complete control freak, and it’s sickening. Everything he does is all about keeping Mason under his thumb. It’s like this passive manipulation to make Mason feel guilty so that he’ll do whatever Noah wants. Mason was on the verge of winning a reward for something he finally thought was fun and captivating, making him feel like his world was changing. Yet, Noah selfishly steps in and takes that spotlight away by whining that he’s waited too long. Trust me, Mason has waited way longer for some da** peace and appreciation.
And seriously, this whole relationship between Noah and Mason feels so unnatural and weird. Personally, I find it hard to understand how you could fall in love with the little kid you saved from being kidnapped and then acted as a bodyguard for, soothing him to sleep from nightmares. That’s more of an uncle-type relationship, right? How can you seriously fall in love with him when you met him as a child? Personally, I wouldn't be able to look at him any other way than as a more mature version of that kid I saved. It’s just fuc**** weird, especially with the age gap. This whole thing feels completely off.
