I held my hands around Finney's body sobbing. I wanted to stop. I knew I was just embarrassing myself .

I could feel Finney's hands hesitantly rub my back trying to comfort me. My sobs soon turned into sniffles and short breaths.

He layed us onto our backs slowly with my head on his chest and my hand touching his stomach.

I took deep breaths relaxing. Anytime I was in Finney's arms or near his presence I felt ok. I've never felt that way about anyone.

My eyes were dried out. My eyes were dried out and I felt dead. Riskingly I squeezed lightly onto Finney.

"Are you ok?" Finney asked breaking the silence

"Yeah, I think I am" I sniffed

"I'm sorry about your brother...I know you two were some what close" he spoke silently

I looked up at him with my head still on his chest.

"Thanks. It's just been hard sometimes you know, having to deal with my father alone without him there and no one there to play pinball, I haven't gone to that machine since, you know" I said frowning

Finney nodded a sad one until his face came to realization with something.

"What is it?" I asked

"Gwen..she's alone with my dad" he said frightened

"I wouldn't worry to much, I had talks with her and she's handling things well." I said trying to calm him down

"You did?" He asked

"Yea, when you went missing I spent everyday with her so she wasn't entirely alone we actually came up with this big plan to come save you but I kinda screwed it up and...ended up here." I sighed

"Big plan? Tell me about it" he laughed small

"Well I might've went a bit overboard" I said raising my head up facing him

He raised his eyebrows at me sitting himself up as well.

"I made this board with all the missing boys faces and it had red string trying to figure out where you were and she told me not to mention the boys but I got angry and did sooo yea" I said kinda fast with an awkward smile

He chuckled

"You angry whatttt??" He said sarcastically whilst dragging the 't'

I playfully rolled my eyes
"Well what do you expect I've got anger issues and I lived with Vance hopper all my life"

"Fair" he shrugged with a smile making it contagious

Gosh why did he have to be so adorable.

About two hours later of playing random games and staying in silence I got up sliding my hand around the whole room because why not.

I slid it across the rusty marks and the cob webbed corners touching the door. But as I did the door moved open slightly and I stopped dead in my tracks

I looked over to Finney who was playing with his rocket.

"Finney..." I said softly with my mouth slightly opened from excitement

He kept his head down just moving his eyes up to me raising his eyebrows.

"Hm?" He mumbled

There was no time to talk so I just opened the door staring at Finney as I saw his eyes light up and a smile on his face he shot up off the springy bed coming over to me. We smiled at each other before reaching the first step.
