Finn got to work helping the kids with their homework.They had homework on everything under the sun but luckily Finn was super smart and able to help them all.Every so often he'd glance up to see Elise helping kids with their homework.
Finally five o'clock came and the kids all packed up their homework and headed out the door.Finn and Elise waved goodbye to them all.
"Bye!"they called,waving.
"Did you like that?"Elise asked Finn excitedly.
He nodded."Ready to go home now?"
Elise bit her lip."Actually I have another dance lesson.Do you want to come?"
"Sure will. "

In the studio,Elise walked onto the dance floor
"Miss,my friend is going to watch us today.Is that alright?"
"Yes,but doesn't he want to join in?"
"Finn?"
"I um..don't have any dance shoes."
"You can borrow some from here.In the box over there.Please hurry so that class can start."

After the lesson they went home.
"I'll you call for me tomorrow Finn?"
"Of course milady."

The days continued in the same way and everyday after school Finn and Elise found themselves doing things together.Iceskating,swimming,cinema,a meal ,music lesson,helping with homework whatever they did Finn made sure talk it through with Elise before hand.So that she was alright with it and there wasn't an argument.Every morninghe texted her the details so she could tell her parents When and where she'd be.

One day Elise looked at her phone over breakfast and frowned.No text from Finn wasn't usual.Figuring he hadn't worked things out yet she waited for him to pick her up on his way to school.Six o'clock came and went and Elise was forced to leave to go to her dance lesson.Feeling guilty she hurried into the dance studio.She frowned again and the crease between her brows deepened as she saw his dance slippers hanging on a peg alongside his dance kit bag.
Hurriedly she pulled the drawstring bag open.She pulled out the contents and found his dance kit,a bottle of water, a granola bar and a note addressed to her.Seizing the note she unfolded it and read the two simple words printed in the middle of the page.

I'm sorry
Hands shaking she put everything back into his bag.Glancing at her own primrose coloured slippers she decided that today she'd wear his.
