finn's p.o.v.

it's almost seven o'clock and i haven't seen millie all day. our date's at seven and she's been in sadie's room since she left this morning.

i'm zoned out till i feel gaten nudge my arm. i look over at him. he gestures his head to the hallway, where i see sadie and millie standing.

i glance back at gaten my eyes wide and he smirks taking a drag of some shit he's smoking today.

millie's in one of sadie's dresses and her hair's done up in a small ponytail. she looks down flattening her dress then gazes back up at me, her cheeks rosy.

i wipe my sweaty palms on my pants and shoot her a smile.

fuck she's gorgeous.

i walk over to her and reach out my arm.

"you ready for our date, pretty girl?"

she giggles, a pretty smile blossoming on her mouth and takes my arm, looking back at sadie who motions for us to leave.

as we exit the apartment millie heads for the van.

"oh, i was thinking we could walk, if that's alright with you?" i ask nervously.

i glance down at her feet, to make sure she's not wearing heels. she's in sneakers.

"of course." she smiles grabbing my hand.

we walk through town in silence.

millie looks around, wonder in her eyes. she'll look at the buildings but always ends up staring back up at the sky. i find myself watching her, many times and i have to stop myself.

"we're here." i say gesturing to the small restaurant on the corner. "my friend jaeden works here." i tell millie, smiling.

"it's lovely." she replies.

i open the door for her and lead the way to a table in the middle of the packed restaurant.

"such a gentleman." she jokes as i pull out her chair.

we sit down and flip through the menu. soon enough, i see jaeden walking over to our table.

"jaeden." i grin.

"finn." he takes our menus. "what can i get for you lovebirds?" he smirks.

we order and jaeden teases me for being on a date, then he leaves to go back to the kitchen.

i can't help but stare at millie. she's beautiful.

"what did i say about staring, wolfhard?" she laughs, catching me.

"ha ha."

"so millie, i forgot to ask but...uh... how old are you?" i question.

she smiles. "i'm 17 but i'll be 18 soon."

"i'm 18, incase you were wondering." i reply.

she chuckles.

"i wasn't wondering."

i laugh loudly, which causes some startes from the other people in the restaurant but i don't care as long as millie's happy.

our food comes quickly and we both devour it, equally as quick. i go up and pay and millie excuses herself to use the washroom.

i'm waiting for her by the door when i spot her.

she took her hair down and it rests just below her ears in soft waves. she smiles and waves at me which gives me butterflies in my stomach, knowing that she's mine.

i gulp as she gets closer and nervously grab her hand.

oh what this girl does to you.

we exit the restaurant saying goodbye to jaeden on our way out.

millie moves closer to me and rests her head on my shoulder as we walk.
her soft hair tickles my cheek and her head bounces on my shoulder with every step, yet, she doesn't seem to mind.

i decide to take a different route home and head through the park instead.

millie's p.o.v.

it begins to drizzle as we walk. the clouds roll in over the town and the rain seems to sweep everyone inside. but not finn and i.

we run through the forming puddles to the park, hand in hand. my smile grows as the rain falls around us. it begins to pour. like a scene from a movie, finn jogs over to me and picks me up, twirling me around in the pouring rain, his smile as big as the moon.

he holds me in his arms and stares down at my face. his cheeks sprinkled with freckles and rain. my lips tingle and without second guessing, i look up and kiss him. my arms around his neck; him holding me up. he presses into the kiss and soon i feel his tounge pleading for entrance. at first i deny but that doesn't work very well since seconds later, his tongue's exploring my mouth. we break off for air and i press my forhead to his, feeling his warm breath on my face.

he ends up carrying me the whole way back to the appartment, i fake pout when he sets me down inside. i quickly remove my sneakers before running off to his bedroom. he silently follows, confusion washed over his face.

i rush over to his window, watching the rain from inside. when i was little, i would pretend the droplets rolling down the glass, were in a race. the first one to the bottom wins.

i stare, memorized by the rain until i feel finn tap my shoulder. i turn around.

he hands my one of his soft t-shirts.

"i thought you could use some dry clothes." he smiles. "sadie's gonna be pissed about her dress but i'll deal with her."

i laugh.

looking him up and down, i realize he's already changed.

i gladly take the shirt.

"turn around." i demand.

he smiles and obeys, turning away from me.

i quickly change into his shirt, which fits me like a dress.

"ok you can look now."

he turns back and as soon as he does, i feel him sweep me off my feet and carry me to the bed.

he wouldn't try anything...would he?

of course he didn't try anything. he snuggles under the covers and pulls me close to him, kissing my forehead.

"did you have fun tonight, pretty girl?" he asks.

"tonight was incredible." i smile, burying my face in his warm chest.
