A/N: I just realized that my writing is confusing 😭😭. So in the beginning it says that Jim Hopper has custody of Millie but throughout the story, I keep saying David!!! So not to confuse you all....David has custody of Millie, and Finn works for Chief Jim Hopper...sorry for all the people who probably thought I couldn't write or had bad memory or some shit!!
Btw I'm actually really fucking sorry for not being steady with updating. I promise I will try to work harder!!! I promise❤️

Finn's POV
I give Millie the biggest smirk ever; my arms crossed against my chest. She tries to hold back from laughing, or even smile, but she can't. A smile smile that could light up the whole world, creeps onto Millie's face. I walk towards her and shake my head just a little.
"You're easy to break." I say.
"Yea Yea, so are you guys going to help me or what." Millie's says as she draws my attention to the bruises all over her body.
"Oh um yea, of course." I turn around and grab the few stuff that Chloe brought down. I turn my head to see if I could ask Chloe for help, but her and josh were flirting with each other. I turn my head back and tend to Millie. I take three sanitizing cloths and rip the package.
"I need to um, I need to clean your bruises so I need to..touch you." I saw as I scratch my head and avoid eye contact.
"It's cool. You can do my legs or well the bottom half, and I'll do the rest of my body. That ok." I quickly nod my head and go back to what I was going to do. I star to rub the bruises on her leg.
"Finn, why are you shaking." I look down at my hands and find that I am in fact, shaking. I grab my own hand quickly and try to steady it. My shaking stops a little, but not quite. I can hear Millie giggle just a little, and it honestly makes me smile a little. I used to think Millie was the biggest bitch but now I just feel closer, some how. I take the ointment and twist open the top. I gently scope my finger and drop a big glop on her leg. I spread it around slowly, probably making things more awkward. My eyes trial upward and focus on her.

Damn..

This girl is absolutely stunning. Everything about her is screams perfection. The way her hair falls on her face, the way her big brown eyes sparkle, even the way she stays true to herself and just doesn't give a fuck. I wish I could stop think these thoughts, but I can't. How could you just not think about such perfection.
"Hello...earth to Finn!!!" I snap my head up and look at Millie.
"Do I intimidate you." She asks as she cocks her head to the side.
"Why would you say that."
"Because you came in here with the biggest smirk when I said all that stuff, but once you get near me, you start shaking like you have no bloody scene."
"I'm a little appalled that you think I'm intimidated by you. Why would I be intimidated by some girl?" I ask as I narrow my eyes and cross my arms against my chest.
"Some girl? Ha! I'm far from just some girl." Millie mimics my actions by narrowing her eyes and crossing her arms against her chest. I unfold my arms and step closer to her.
"Yea right."
"I swear. Once you hear my story, you'll never think of me as just some girl." Millie say as she starts to unwrap bandages and place them on her cuts and bruises.
"Tell me you'll story."
"Why would I tell some boy my story, especially you." The sarcasm in her voice as clear as her British accent. I smirk a little and look at my feet. I hate when girls play with me, I hate it because it makes me look stupid when I can't think of anything to say fast enough.
"Fine, don't tell me."
"Finn I'm playing, jeez. Can't take a joke much." I look up at Millie and roll my eyes.
"You act like most of these bitches at our school." Millie says as she lets out a obnoxious loud laugh that makes me smile.
"Whatever. So you gonna tell me?" I ask with a bit on confusion.
"No."
"Um why not?"
"Um because I don't want to tell you...not yet."
"Hmm...just answer this question, what's your deal with David? Does he scare you or something." I laugh at my last question, but my laugh is soon cut short. Tears start to fill Millie's eyes. Her face turns red and she starts to shake a little.
"Millie what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" I ask quickly without hesitation.
"No, well yea, but it's fine." She wipes off her tears and continues to cover the disfigurations on her body.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry."
"Finn it's fine ok." The bitterness in her voice makes me regret even speaking. I hate seeing her like this. I barely know her but she means a lot to me. To think that the mention of her life makes her cry, makes me wonder what the fuck people are doing to her. She deserves better, I just don't think she understands that. I don't think she understands that I'm not like the rest of these people. I don't want to see her cry, or fail, or hurt. I want to see her happy..and I've never seen that. I want her to feel like she can trust me, even though I know she's never felt that way with anyone. I want so many things from her, but I'm to afraid to ask. I'm to afraid and I hate to admit it but it's true.
Without even thinking of my next actions, I grab Millie in my arms and just hug her. She starts to cry harder, but I don't mind. Her tears fall onto my shoulders but I don't mind. I just hold her in my arms. Because I don't mind.
