The Fall

Before

February 4 2000

Friday.
I woke up before the screeching of my alarm. My heart beating fast, butterflies flew inside my stomach. Tonight had to be perfect.

I slipped into the shower. The water tricking onto my skin, hot and reassuring.

I reached into my wardrobe pulling a black shirt, jeans and the black leather jacket Bella had said she liked.
I grabbed the scratched car keys and my bag, making my way to the blue car.

The drive to school was quite peaceful today, the birds tweeted and the trees blew at the harsh winter breeze. This day was going to be perfect, I grinned.

When I arrived at maths Bella was already there. Her crystal eyes lit up when she saw me. "Finn," she shrieked higher pitched than normal. She got up from her desk. She flattened her ruby-red dress down with her hands.
"Hey, Bell-", before I could finish my sentence she had her arms wrapped around me, smiling into my leather jacket.

Bella's PoV

My arms surrounded Finn, making a barrier. I didn't want to let him go. He smelt of roses and sweat, his hair still a mess, but perfect.
Maths class felt like 2 hours. I wanted the time to speed up, so I could go to dinner with Finn. I have been looking forward to it all week.
I doodled on the paper, writing infinite Finn's, dotting the i's with hearts.
Finally the bell rang, piercing my ear drums. I hurried together all my books.
"Hunter," Finn joked " do you want a lift? I couldn't help but notice you don't have a car". I smiled. I liked the way Hunter sounded coming from his lips, soft and comforting.
" What do you want me to start calling you Elliot, now?" I smirked. "Come on smelliot".
Finn grabbed his bag, resting it on his shoulder, his free arm around me, pulling me closer. "Okay Belle," he smiled.

Finn's car arrived at my house. I hesitated before I opened the door, part of me didn't want to leave him even if it was only for a few hours.
"Bye, I'll see you at 5 right?"I beamed "smelliot".
He chuckled " see you then, Hunter".

Finn's PoV

I smiled as I saw her walk inside her house. Her ruby dress complemented the roses on the porch.
"Bye Belle," I whispered and then drove off.
2 hours to make everything perfect, I sighed.
When I came out of the shower, I snuck into my parents room and borrowed a comb. I ran it through my knotted hair, through the middle parting. I looked into the mirror. No, this wasn't me, I sighed messing my hair up.
I picked out a crisp white t-shirt and black jeans, placing my leather jacket back over my shoulders, remembering to take a rose for Bella before I left the house.

Bella's PoV

Finn's going to be here in 10 minutes and I still haven't picked out an outfit. I hurriedly fumbled through my wardrobe and pulled out a light pink dress. This will have to do I smiled as I applied the pink lipstick to my lips.
The door bell.
I quickly put my heels on and opened the door. Finn. His hair still messy but perfect. His outfit made his features look sharper, making him look more attractive.
"Hi Bella," he said placing a red rose into my hands, I smiled following him back to his car.
