in which ~ we discover that the lonely boy might not be so lonely

finn's p.o.v.
"where are we headed, wolfhard?" millie asks.
"i don't know love, where do you want to go?" i reply, fighting the urge to look at her and keeping my eyes on the road.
"what i want is for you to stop calling me love. i told you my name, so use it." she says in a way that i know she's giving me a death glare.
damn finn, you really chose a girl with some kick to her.
it starts to rain outside so i turn on my windshield wipers. they slowly wipe the rain off my window and the road once again becomes visible.
"can i turn on the radio?" millie asks breaking the silence.
"sure." i reply.
she reaches over and fiddles with the radio, not succeeding in finding a station that meets her liking so eventually shutting it off.
i catch a glimpse of her arm. the scarlet stain is bigger then when i last saw it.
"mills your arm...we should stop and i'll take a look at it before it gets infected." i say.
"mills, huh. that's a new nickname." she grumbles, avoiding the comment completely.
"millie i"m serious. that looks bad."
"there's nothing to worry about wolfhard. i'm fine." she says, plastering a fake smile on her face.
she tries to put her arm on the arm rest but winces when it makes contact, quickly pulling it back to her side.
"millie, i'm taking you to my apartment and having a look at your arm."
"there's no need." she says. "see, look."
i look over to her. she pinches her arm, then gasps in pain. regret flashes on her face. "see i'm completely fine." she says through gritted teeth.
it's evident she's in a lot of pain, so her stubbornness is not going to stop me.
"millie, we'll be at my place in 10."
she stays silent, admitting defeat.
throughout the drive i try to start some small talk but eventually millie dozes off so i just sit in silence. i try to avoid as many potholes as possible, to not wake her. every now and then i glance over, admiring how adourable she looks while sleeping.
eventually i spot the turnoff to my apartment.
we pull into the parking lot and i turn off the van.
"we're here." i say, un-buckling my seat belt and turning to face millie.
she's still asleep.
i reach over and gently tap her shoulder. she stirs, blinking as if the sun is too bright.
"we're here mills."
she un-buckles her seat belt ignoring me and then tries to open the car door, failing miserably because she uses her bad arm.
quickly i hop out of the van, bailey following behind me and go open her door.
"m'lady." i say, mocking her sugary british voice and gesturing with my arm towards the apartment complex.
millie steps out of the car quickly and i shut the door behind her. she then turns to face me.
"you don't have to do that." she sighs.
