The smile grew on my face hearing the news. Finn and I sat in the doctors office the next morning, his hand in mine as we heard the results of my MRI. Since it was early on in the morning, we were able to get the results an hour later. And in that hour I had managed to ask Finn countless times if the results were back yet.

"Wait, can you repeat that?" I asked.

The doctor smiled. "The MRI came back clean. Which is surprising for the amount of pain you're in. But there is some bad news, though."

My heart sunk and I felt Finn squeeze my hand, getting prepared for the worst. "You are going to miss a few weeks from the ring. You've stressed the muscle out pretty bad so I want you to take some time to rest up and heal your knee."

I breathed at the news, thankful that I would only miss a few weeks. Finn and I stood thanking the doctor before we slowly started making our way out of the building. After Finn helped me getting into the car, he ran over to his side and once we were on the road back to his place, I let out a breath I had no idea I was holding.

"What's on yer mind?" He grabbed my hand and placed a few feather-like kisses.

"I'm glad it's nothing terrible. I don't know what I would have done if I needed surgery."

"I would have let ya work on some of my Lego creations." He gave me his goofy smile as we pulled into the parking lot of his complex.

A snort left my lips. "Did you forget last night? I tried to help you with one but you smacked my hand away."

"Ya weren't following tha directions," Finn laughed when he came around to my side of the car and helped me out.

As we made our way inside, my phone buzzed from my pocket. Smiling a thanks to Finn for holding the door open for me, his scent filled my nostrils as we made our way inside his apartment and I pulled out my phone.

Sami and I are on our way to Finn's place. Get some clothes on-Sasha

Feeling the heat rise to my cheeks, I smiled a thanks to Finn when he handed me a bowl of grapes before he sat at the other end of the couch, turning on the T.V.

"Sasha and Finn are coming over?" I asked popping a few grapes into my mouth.

Finn laid is head against the back of the couch. "I completely forgot. I can cancel on them if ya want."

I shook my head. "No, it's fine."

We fell into a comfortable silence and watched whatever movie was on the television, Finn occasionally running a hand up and down my good knee. I felt his hot gaze on me halfway through the movie so I turned my attention towards him.

"What?" I asked with a small smile.

He shook his head, opening his mouth to say something but closed it, second guessing himself. He turned his attention back to the television but by the look on his face, I could tell it was still bothering him.

Grabbing the remote from him, I turned off the television which earned a protest from him. Ignoring him, I gently sat up before facing him. "What's wrong?"

He shook his head again. "It's nothing, love." He kissed my head to reassure me but I still didn't let it go.

"Finn, you can tell me if something's bothering you. Is it me staying here? I can go back to my hotel." I rambled on which caused Finn to press hit lips against mine.

"I think we should do less talking and more of this," he breathed coming up for air for a few moments before crashing his lips on mine once more.

Agreeing with him, I ran my hands through his already messy hair and tugged at it, deepening the kiss. I felt him sit up from the couch and laid me down on my back, avoiding putting pressure on my knee. His hands roamed over my covered stomach before slipping underneath and I felt the heat radiating from him warming up my body as he gripped my side. Lacing his other hand with mine, he pinned it above my head while I wrapped my good leg around his.
