Chapter 20- Divergence

*FINN'S POV*

I must admit, I was slightly disappointed when Nick turned up in his 'ride', the one his boss had hooked him up with. I guess I was secretly hoping for some classic pimp my ride deal, but the reality, a 10 year old sedan with a kiddie seat in the back, was a real let down. "So what happened to the limo?"

"It's to throw off the cops" Nick informed me, "a kiddie seat is amazing for that shit, especially if we are able to borrow one of the bosses younger 'props'."

"What the fuck, Nick!" I yelled in disbelief.

"Man, you're so gullible" he managed through his laughter, slapping me on the back. I rolled my eyes, amazing even myself at my stupidity, laughing along with him eventually. It'll just be another story to tell, I say to myself, looking forward to the adventure we were on.

"I just need to pick up some stuff on the way" Nick said.

"Such as?" I asked. I didn't really care, I just needed out of here, away from our so called parents, away from the guys, away from my life. Maybe I wouldn't come back, maybe I could start again, maybe I could finally work out what the fuck was wrong with me. Stop it, I can't think about this, about her, I have to let it go.

*MILLIE'S POV*

I couldn't go back home, not yet, not after the roof. Mum and dad are total wrecks, how can I recover surrounded by that? Noah insisted I stay with him and his family, they've always been so good to me, so kind, always looking out for me. I've always felt safe in their house, like I was being protected from something, maybe from the harsh world, maybe, I don't know, my feelings were confusing I guess.

"Hey Millie, I've set up the room for you, next to mine as usual, okay?" said Noah. I nodded, appreciating the small touches as I looked around. My favourite blanket on the bed, snacks hidden in the cabinet for late night hunger pangs, he even put a fresh vase of flowers on top of the drawers. It made me smile, being here made me smile. For the first time in I can't even remember how long, I felt something akin to peaceful, at home with myself and my own thoughts. I looked over at Noah, he was just looking at me with an affectionate expression, wanting me to be happy, and I couldn't help but mirror his feeling.

"Thanks Noah, it's perfect" I said. Walking over to him I couldn't help but embrace him, "seriously, thank you...you've always been there for me, I can't ever tell you..." I couldn't continue, but feeling his arms tighten our embrace, I knew he understood, "I know it's late, but I was hoping we could watch some Grey's Anatomy together. I don't want to sleep alone just yet."
He pulled away from the hug and nodded, I followed him into his room and crawled into his bed. His arms cautiously wrapped around me causing my heart to storm with ironically, peacefulness. I was safe, but why was I thinking about him?
