"IT" IMAGINES & PREFERENCES

21: Finn Wolfhard

This is part 2

__________

I stayed up all night, crying. My eyes burned and felt dry. My throat and mouth was also dry. And the constant pain in my chest ached my entire body as the thought came back. The thought of how many other girls he possibly could have done that with.

Mother told me to never cry over a boy...especially if it's something as stupid as cheating. It wasn't meant to be and I have to accept that.

I laid down on the couch and curled up into a ball, breathing through my mouth because my nose was runny and stuffy. I wiped a single tear away and closed my eyes, trying as hard as I could to erase the horrible haunting thought from my mind.

*******

The sound of a lawnmower being turned on made me jolt awake. I sat up and regretted it immediately as my head started to pound. This headache is strong as fuck.

I sighed and stood up, stumbling my way to my bedroom. Once reaching it, I stood in the doorway.

Not wanting to cry again and break down, I shook the thoughts and walked inside.

Pulling the sheets and everything off the bed, I threw them into a bag. After disinfecting the entire bed, I got in the shower.

I'm going to need new sheets, and I might re decorate my room while I'm at it.

******

I grabbed a cart and pushed it into the store, smelling the strong scent of buttery popcorn. That's why I loved Target, it always smells like popcorn.

Smiling slightly, I started towards the bedding area.

Maybe some white sheets? I've always wanted an all white room, it's so aesthetically pleasing.

I picked a few items I thought would look cute and passed the snack section. I stopped immediately and smirked.

I've been craving cookies! Smiling big like a child in a candy store, I pushed the cart down the isle.

Throwing in all types of junk food, knowing I was going to look pregnant after eating it all.

"Y...y/n?" I heard. Freezing mid reach to grab another box of cookies, a lump caught in my throat.

I know who is behind me...and I really do want to turn around. But I couldn't. Just seeing him would break me all over again.

Slowly lowering my hand, I placed it on the handle of the cart. I swallowed the lump and started walking away, holding in that scream I so desperately wanted to release.

"Y/n! Y/n please!" Finn yelled.

I should have just stayed home, knowing damn well I would run into him.

I stopped when I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I pulled away but didn't walk away.

"Can...can I just explain myself?"

His voice was shallow and it sounded almost as if he actually cared. But if he really did care, he wouldn't have cheated.

"No...I'm really busy right now." I stated.

"Why do you have so many boxes of cookies?" He asked. I turned around.

"Why do you have to be such a damn hoebag? Can you mind your damn business? I'm sick of you....you made me fall in love with you...t-then you go and have an affair? What the fuck is wrong with you Wolfhard?!" I said.

Good thing there wasn't anyone in the isle, otherwise I'd be getting hella nasty stares.

He sighed and looked down, "I'm sorry."

I laughed....it started off slow but hen it got louder.

"You're....you're shitting me right?" I asked as tears blurred my vision.

He didn't look up.

"God...you are such a child. Grow the fuck up, Finn. If you think I'm going to take you back...or even continue this conversation.....you're fucking crazy. You
fucked up. Not me." And with that I started walking again, leaving him in the middle of an isle.

After paying for my items and buying myself a popcorn, like I usually do, I walked back to my car.

Putting everything in my cart, I worked as quietly as possible. Not wanting him to show up again.

"Y/n?" I heard. I groaned.

"How many times do I have to tell you, Finn. Fuck. Off!" I turned around angrily but saw someone else.

"....Jaeden?" I asked surprised.

He nodded and smiled, and I ran the short distance to embrace him in a hug.

"What....what are you doing here? I thought you left for good." I said.

He chuckled and it felt like it did in 5th grade when we used to hug and giggle. We used to be best friends, until Finn came along and made Jae leave.

I pulled away and smiled, starring at him. Starting to tear up, I laughed a little.

"I missed you so much." I whispered.

"As do I....wanna catch lunch? If you're not busy of course." He said.

I smiled and blinked a few times to pull the tears back. Nodding I locked my car and put the cart away.

"Let's walk to the spaghetti factory. It's just down a few buildings." I said.

"Sounds like a plan." He said.
