I was sat in my room for about 20 minuets, stressing myself out about the whole thing when my door opened.

"Boo." It was Finch, he popped his head in smiling.

"Oh, hey. It's you. Come in." I smiled because I could face Finch.

"Yeah. Only me. Gen?" He asked.

"Finch?" I mocked him, jokingly.

"Can I talk to you about something?" He asked.

"Sure. What's up?" I was confused.

"Well, it's about you and Zeke..." He started.

"What about us?" I asked.

"Well... The way you look at him. It's off." He said awkwardly.

"What do you mean off?" I asked, so very confused.

"Are you in love with Zeke?" He blurted out. "Oh god. I'm sorry Gen. It shouldn't have come out like that." He apologised.

"Finch. Listen, it's fine. I didn't know how I feel for him yet. I just. I don't know." I let it all out.

"It's okay, I won say anything don't worry. I just wanted to know that you were okay and it wasn't all too fast." He said.

"It's not that it's too fast. It's just-" I stopped myself.

"Is it someone else?" He asked knowing already my answer.

"I don't know... Like at the restaurant. I was about to kiss him, but then... I- I- I- um..." I stuttered. Badly.

"Gen... You can tell me anything." He smiled and held my hand.

"I did something really bad Finch. Really bad." I said shaking my head.

"It's okay. I won't hate you whatever you've done." He said holding up his pinky for us to promise.

"I- I um... I let Nate kiss me." I said still holding onto his finger.

"Nate... Like our Nate. Nate Nate?" He was shocked, but didn't let my finger go.

"Yes. Like Nate Nate!" I said.

"God. When? How long have you liked him?" He asked.

"Well... You know when I was telling you about the guy I met, before Zeke."

"That was Nate. That explains why he left when you and Zeke were close." He said now realising.

"Yeah... About 20 minuets ago... Before you came in he-" I couldn't say it.

"He what? Kissed you. I know." He smiled.

"No. Not just that. H-he told me that he loved me." I said.

"He did what?!" He near shouted.

"Shhhhhhhh!" I hushed him.

"Why did he do that? What did you say?" He was throwing questions around like there's no tomorrow.

"I didn't know why he did that. Trust me I'm still trying to figure that out. And I told him that I needed time. Time to think. Time to get all of it around my head." I was panicking now.

"Gen. Calm down. It's not as bad as it seems. I promise!" He cooed me. Then finally let go of my hand and hugged me.
