I slowly wake up. My head is pounding as i sit up on the bed I was laying on. I look around and immediately  recognize the room. Finney's. I sit up on his bed and looked around. It still had all his space stuff and all the other stuff. Nothing was different. I stand up and grab on to something since everywhere on my body hurt when I moved. 

I was walking around the room when I stop at his photo wall.  I look at all the photos when I come up on one. It was me and him. I was on his back and we both had ice creams in our hand. 

It was before we got taken. I thought. I picked it up and stared at it. Right before I put it down the door starts to open. I turn around to see Finney looking at me. I turn back around and put the photo down before turning back around.

"Come on we have to change your bandages." Finney says before walking out of the room. I roll my eyes and follow him to the bathroom. I sit on the toilet as he grabs the bandages from the cabinet.

"How did all this happen." He asks as he walks over to me and starts to take off my bandages.

"oh I wanted to start dating again and after I left the restaurant the other day he asked for my number and we went out and instead of actually going somewhere he took me to his house and then tried to rape me." I said leaving the ghost boys out of it.  Finney paused for a second before continuing.

"Ima put alcohol on the cut on ur forehead. It might sting." Finney said completely ignoring what I said. He put the alcohol on and I flinched.

"ouch." I said trying not to move.

"Sorry." Finney said. I looked at his face. His mouth to his nose to his eyes. He looked the same as before, just more older.

"Hey Finney" I said after a couple minutes of silence.

"yeah Lilly?" He answered looking at my eyes then back to cleaning my cuts.

" How come you stopped being my friend after we got out?" I asked watching his face for his reaction. He stopped what he was doing again and looked at me in my eyes.

"Because every time I was with you it reminded me of being in the basement and I knew we had something going on and I completely ditched you for Donna but I didn't care. It hurt to much to be with you. So I left." He said before looking away and putting a bandaid on my forehead. He backed away from me and leaned on the wall in front of me.

"then how come you left that photo of us on the photo wall you had." I asked leaning back on the toilet looking at him.

"because after awhile I missed you Lilly."

"Then how come you never told me?" I asked getting a bit mad. Tears stung my eyes.

"Because." He thought for a second. "I don't know."

I stood up from the toilet. "you don't know? You don't know?!" I looked at him with disbelief. He looked at the ground as I walked out. He followed me. I walked into his room and sat on his bed.

"Jeez I don't know why I even called you." I didn't even know I was crying till Finney walked up to me and wiped my tear with his thumb.

"im glad you did." He said looking down at me. I looked back at him. I didn't know what was going on but we both started to lean in. We got closer and closer.

Just then someone slammed the door open. We quickly pulled away and I looked behind him to see Gwen. She looked at us confused before seeing my face.

"omg! What happened??" She said pushing Finney out the way and checking my face. "Are you ok?

I smiled " yeah im ok. I just had an accident. "

"Are you sure?" Gwen asked me as she pulled me in a hug. I hugged her back as I nodded.

"im sure."

"ok good." She pulled away and smiled. I stood up off the bed and grabbed all of my stuff.

"I should get going. " I said as I slipped my shoes on. Gwen and Finney looked at each other.

"let us walk you." Gwen said as Finney nodded.

" ok lets go." I said walking towards the front door. As I walked out Gwen connected our arms and started to skip. I started to skip as I laughed.

The whole way to my house me, Gwen, and Finney all catched up on what has happened since last time we talked.

After about 20 minutes of walking, skipping, and sometimes running we made it to my house. We walked up the front steps and I started to pull on my keys.

"hey." I hear Finney say. I turn around

"yeah?" I asked. He held out his hand.

"Friends?"

I smiled and shook his hand

"friends."

"YAY WE ARE ALL FRIENDS AGAIN" Gwen yelled as she jumped on us making a group hug.
