guitar boy ≫ f.w.

≪ auburn ≫

monday morning. i hated it. i had to go to school.

my father was okay this morning. we didn't speak at all yesterday. i mostly stayed in my room.

"auburn?" i heard my dad call out. i turned around. "before you go, i just wanted to apologize for my behavior on saturday." i didn't say anything.

"here." he handed me a box. it was a pair of earrings. i pretended to put them on as i walked out the door, but quickly put them back in the box when i got in my car.

i drove off to school. my least favorite place. i gotten a text from someone. 'auburn?' 'yeah?' i texted back.

'it's finn lmao' 'oh hey guitar boy' i smiled at the text.

i walked in my school, looking for my friend. her name is sophia.

she was kinda an outcast like me. people talked a lot about her, which pissed me off cause it was mostly lies.

"hey." she greeted, hugging me. she had been out sick last week. she had a lung infection.

my phone lit up. "ooh, who you texting?" she grabbed my phone. "who's finn?" she questioned.

"some guy i met at the flower field." i said taking my phone back. "is he cute?"

"i guess. why, you want him?" i laughed. "now you know damn well my gay ass don't want him." she laughed.

after going through the school day, i had to go back home, which i dreaded. i would hang out with sophia, but she had art club after school. she was a painter, a good one too.

i have no talent. i don't fit in with anything.

i sat in my car in the parking lot. my phone lit up, a message notification from finn. 'are you out of school?' 'yep' 'do you wanna go to the flower field?'

'during the day time lol' 'shut up lol i have no where else to go'

'how about your house ??????' i sent, turning my car on. 'i don't wanna go home rn' 'neither do i lmao' 'sooooooo, are u coming or what?' 'i guess so yeah' i put my phone in my pocket, and headed to the flower garden.

i looked for finn. he said he'd be here. i saw him sitting at the very bench that i met him at.

i walked toward him. "hey." i greeted, sitting down next to him.

he didn't have his guitar. "guitar boy, where's your guitar?" i asked. "at my house." he mocked my tone, chuckling.

"why don't you wanna go to your house?" i asked. his expression went blank. "it's nothing, just some shit."

"if it's some shit, then it must be something." i furthered the topic.

"i promise, it's nothing." he looked at me, assuringly.

"you know, you look a lot better in broad daylight." he said, turning to look at me. "aw, does my little guitar boy have a crush on me?" i laughed.

"aw, you wish-" he said mocking me, but also trying to think of a nickname for me, since i call him 'guitar boy'.

i laughed at him. "it's not easy with your name." he laughed along with me.

"wow wolfhard actually has a girl sitting next to him." i heard someone said.

i turned around, and it was some guy, who i assumed knew finn. "caleb, shut up." the guy, i assumed is caleb, just laughed, he was holding some girls hand.

she had ginger hair, and was pale, and way shorter than him. "go fuck sadie in the bushes and leave me alone." he joked.

"you're just mad cause you're single." "no, i'm mad cause millie cheated on me." he retaliated.

caleb grew quiet. "noah is still mad at you dude." "why would he be mad at me? millie cheated on ME with HIM." he said.

i had no idea who any of these people were. but i assumed some shit was happening between them all.

"id just give him about a week to chill." "he has no right to be mad." "look, wolfhard, i'm in your side, but i think it may be best if you both just, parted ways." caleb shrugged.

"he was my best friend." finn crossed his arms. "shit happens dude." finn rolled his eyes. "i'll text you later, me and sadie are gonna walk  around." he let the red head girl, sadie, lead the way as they walked.

i looked at finn. he was looking down. "i'm sorry about that." he said, not looking at me.

"it's alright, but, this millie, how long did y'all date?" i kinda regret asking that, they broke up just a couple days ago.

he looked up at me. "for like 4 almost 5 months." he answered calmly. i nodded my head slowly.

"i'm sorry it had to end that way." i said quietly. "it's alright, i'll get over it." he said looking in the distance.

"do you wanna walk around?" i asked. "sure." he stood up. he was really tall, almost as tall as the caleb guy.

i stood up after him. we walked through the rose maze. it was a maze of bushes that had a bunch of red and pink roses on the bushes. they were tall.

we walked through the maze, turning at random corners.

finn took a red rose from the bush. "finn, i don't think you're suppose to do that." i said. he handed it to me.

i looked confused. "it's for you." he assured me. i took it. "thank you." i said with a smile. i just held it in my hand. "you know guitar boy, we would've never met if i didn't walk out my house at 12."

he looked down at me. "i'm thankful you did." was this boy catching feelings for me? so quickly after a breakup too, almost like i was a rebound.

i didn't know how to feel. he's cute and all, but i didn't really know him that well.

"so, finn, when am i finn get to go in your house?" i asked. "whenever my brother stops being an ass." he said plainly. "what's happening with that?" i asked.

"he has a new girlfriend, so he's moving in with her next week, and he's bossing everyone around, treating me like his slave." he complained. "shit." i responded.

i checked the time. it was 4:30. my dad was gonna be home from work at 5.

"finn, my dad, he'll be home in like 30 minutes, i have to go." he nodded, "okay." we found our way out of the maze.

i walked to my car. "hey, auburn." i turned to look at finn. "text me." he pulled me in a hug.

"okay." i let go, and stepped inside my car.
