Walking into school anxious as usual, Millie gulped in fear that there'd be a viscous rumor about her.
Ever since someone lied about her liking Caleb McLaughlin, she'd always kept her ears open and out. Aware, if you will.
There he is.
Eyeing Finn, she smiled her cutest grin she could, knowing he was watching her.
He smiled back and waved.
Oh my god! OH MY GOD! He smiled back? He smiled back!
Blushing, she continued walking into her classroom.
It was those little things that made her happy.

It was time for science, which she had with Finn.
Adjusting her poka-dot headband which held back little strands of her short hair, she looked into the reflection of the class mirror to make sure everything was in place.
"New lab groups! The list is on the board." Mrs. Ryder said, jotting down notes in her handy book.
Millie stood next to Finn, reading the list.
She puts her finger on it and scrolls down until she finds her name.
Millie Brown, table 4.
Turning around she grabs her science textbooks and goes to table 4.
Finn chuckles, "Hey lab partner."
He follows Millie to the table.
"Oh," she smirks.
Everyone was seated, and Mrs. Ryder began her lesson.
"Turn to page 237." She said
"I forgot my textbook."
"You can borrow mine," she pushes her book towards him.
His eyes widen.
"I mean, if you want," shrugging, she doesn't want to look too desperate for affection.
"No, we can share it."
Turning to page 237, he stares at Millie.
Catching him, Millie smiles back.
Blushing, Finn quickly looked down at the book.
"Wow, microorganisms are cool." He says.
She laughs, he chuckles along.
