millie's p.o.v.

yawning, i blink myself awake.

i become aware of my surroundings and realize i'm in finn's arms.  i feel his grip around me tighten.  he's awake.

i stare at the ceiling above us letting my unspoken thoughts take over.
finn mumbles under his breath jerking me into reality.

i bite my lip, uncertainty flowing through me like a river.

"good morning pretty girl."  finn says in a raspy morning voice.

i turn over onto my stomach to look at him.

"morning wolfhard."

a smile blooms on my face and my cheeks get rosy as he pulls me up; kissing me tenderly.  his soft curls tickling my warm cheeks.

i scrunch my nose to stop myself from laughing.

"finnie!  your hair tickles."  i say through giggles.

stop giggling millie, he'll think your immature.

i kiss him again to make the giggles stop. 

i feel his mouth twitch into a smile and out of the blue, he begins to laugh.

"what's so funny?" 

"you look s-so cute when you giggle."  he chuckles.

i give him a fake pout, trying to hide my growing smile.

he rolls over pulling me along for the ride and somehow i wind up beneath him.

he smiles looking into my eyes and bends down kissing me fast before getting up to take a shower.

i lay on my back looking at the white ceiling in the strange boy's bedroom.  it's odd, i thought i'd be dead three days ago.  that thought floats through my mind and i can't help but think, if finn hadn't run over my bag, i would be dead.  now that's an odd thought.  in more ways then one, finn saved me.

i start to think about finn and i can't stop. 

the dusting of freckles sprinkled over his cheeks and the bridge of his nose.  the adourable way he laughs and how he bites his lip when he's trying not to smile.  his curly hair that tickles my face.  his warm brown eyes that can see right through me.  the way he sees the best in me. 
i may not deserve him but like it or not, he's stuck with me.

i release myself from the trap of my thoughts and get up off the floor.  i creep across the room going out into the hall and wander to the kitchen. 

my breath hitches as a pair of arms embrace me.

"i'm so glad you're alright."  sadie declares, releasing me from her grasp.

"t-thanks sadie." i respond, taken aback.

"what would ya like for breakfast."  i hear a voice call from the kitchen.

i walk in to see a boy cooking some bacon and eggs.

"i'm gaten by the way."  he chuckles taking a drag of the cigarette in his hand.

"millie."  i answer.

"oh i know, finn wouldn't stop talking 'bout you. i think he's in love."  he teases, making me blush.

"i wouldn't say tha-"  i'm cut off by more people entering the large kitchen.

"sadie!  where'd you put my smoothie?"  the blond girl yells.

"it should be in the fridge."  sadie laughs.

sadie walks over to me, taking my hand and leading me to the living room.

"i know all the people are sorta overwhelming at first but you'll get used to it."  sadie sighs, sitting on the couch. 

i sit down next to her, not saying a word.

we sit in uncomfortable silence for a while until caleb walks in.

"you ladies sure are talkative."  he jokes going to sit next to sadie.

sadie giggles as he puts his arm around her. 

"so millie, did you and finn have a fun night?" caleb wiggles his eyebrows.

i turn beet red.

thankfully, finn walks in before i have a chance to answer.

"are they bothering you millie." he asks, putting his arm around me like caleb to sadie.

"n-no" i stutter, shocked by his actions.

"so are you guys like a thing now?" sadie asks, grining.

at the same time as i say no, finn says yes.

"getting mixed signals here guys." caleb groans.

"well you see i um... haven't asked millie on a date."  finn breaths.

i whip my head around to face him.

"what are you waiting for then wolfhard, ask me on a date."  i say smuggly, cocking my head to the side and giving him an expecting look.

though i have a tough look, anxiousness is eating me up.

"millie bobby brown, would you go on a date with me?" finn asks, rubbing the back of his neck nervously. 

wow,i didn't think he'd be nervous about this.

i kiss him quickly smiling.

"so is that a yes?"  he asks.

i kiss him again, this time rougher, forgetting that sadie and caleb are sitting next to us.

i feel him smile into the kiss making me smile back.  i pull away and and look directly into his brown eyes.  my stomach gets fuzzy as i reply to him.

"yes."

"what?!"  he gasps, shocked at my answer.

"i said yes wolfhard, give yourself some credit."  i giggle.

"eeeeeeee!" sadie squeals.  "this is so exciting!  let's go get you ready." 

she grabs my hand and pulls me up.  i glance back at finn who winks at me, then i bounce down the hall giddily.

i guess i've got a date to prepare for.

a/n:

not a great chapter.  it was short and bad sorry.  i just wanted to get finn to ask her out so that i can get this story to where i want it for the ending, which is coming very soon.

thanks for reading,
