"I thought you might needed." voice said from behind Cora and she turned around to see Finn with a glass of gin.

"Thank you." she said kissing his cheek and he nodded standing next to her. "So, have you met Gina?" he asked.

She hummed smirking to herself and took a sip of her drink. "Yup. It went better than I expected." she said smiling.

"What did you do again?" he asked sighing and she shrugged. "I just wanted to get rid of her accent." she said.

"You're bloody crazy." he said and she looked up at him. "But you like that." she whispered to his lips and he scoffed.

"More than that. It drives me crazy, love." he said to her lips and she pecked them before the voice over mic was heard.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the dance is about to begin." it said and she intertwined her fingers with his and they walked away.

Cora and Finn were sitting in the chairs while watching the couple dancing to the song and Cora sighed annoyed.

Finn looked at her and saw her playing with her hair and smiled leaning towards her ear.

"Do you want to go away?" he asked whispering and a small smirk covered her lips and she looked up at him. 

"Where to?" she asked and he shrugged. "Anywhere. We could go back home if you want." he said and she looked to front again.

"Sure." she said and two of them stood up unnoticed and walked towards the stables. Cora walked towards Eclipse.

"Hello, love." she whispered opening the box. "I thought I was your love." Finn said pretending she hurt his feelings.

Cora laughed and walked over to him as he leaned with his shoulder on the doors, his arms crossed over his chest.

"Jealous?" she smirked and he placed his tongue in his cheek pulling her by her waist towards him.

Their chests were touching each other and they were looking into each others eyes. He moved a lock of her hair behind her ear.

"I don't share what's mine." he said resting his hand on her hip and she chuckled looking down and back up.

"I thought I was the one who doesn't share." she said and he lowered himself brushing his lips across hers.

"We don't share." he said and both of them smirked a bit and he connected their lips into passionate kiss.

She wrapped her hands around his neck and he pulled her more by her waist. After they parted, they rested their foreheads against each other.

"I love you, Finn." she whispered closing her eyes and a small smile covered his face and he closed his eyes.

"I love you more, Cora." he whispered back and they looked at each other back. It was a comfortable silence.

"Should we go? Before the dance finishes?" he asked breaking the silence and she nodded slowly.

She walked inside Eclipse's box and took her out as Finn was already ready waiting for her.

Cora climbed on horse and placed both of her legs to one side because of the dress and they started walking.

"What do you think about Gina?" she asked and looked at him and he just shrugged not knowing what to say.

"I haven't met her properly, so..." he said and she just hummed and looked back to front again thinking.

The moonlight was illuminating her soft skin and Finn looked at her scar. It wasn't ugly to him. He liked it.

He actually did not care about her looks. He just loved her for who she was. And she loved him for who he was.

Finn never got as much attention and care from someone as he got from Cora. He was more like just a little brother.

Don't get me wrong, his brothers love him. But he received more love from Cora than from any of his brothers.

"Do you think there will be another war?" he asked and she shrugged. "Maybe. I mean, it's not impossible." she said.

"People are stupid and there is so much unstable people that would want to rule the fucking world if they could."

"I hope it wouldn't though. But I assume there will be sooner or later." she said and sighed and he hummed.

He looked at her again observing her face. Her freckles and her perfect silky hair that was blown by light breeze.

"Finn!" she repeated and he snapped out of it and looked at her eyes and she laughed lightly shaking her head.

"Is there something on my face?" she asked and he shook his head and blushed a bit looking back in front.

"you're just beautiful." he said and she bit inside her cheek not wanting to smile and looked down at her hands.

"Thank you." she said and they continued riding until they came back to Small Heath and left horses in stables.
