Rare; Fionn Whitehead

thirteen

She was laying on his chest, his arms wrapped around her. His thumb drew circular motions on her palm while they watched the movie. The room was dark, the only source of light in the room coming from the tv. The movie was still playing however they both had something else on their mind, the kiss. To her, it was amazing. His lips were cold but a cold feeling she enjoyed very much. His lips were soft, the softest lips she had ever felt on her lips before. He made her heart race, like crazy. She was falling for him so goddamn fast and she wanted to spend every second of every day with him, but of course that isn't possible. To him, this kiss was the best kiss he's ever had in his entire life. Her lips were a beautiful shade of pink and perfectly soft. When he kissed her, he felt his whole world was complete. She had made him feel like the happiest man alive. He was falling for her so goddamn quickly, and he wants to be with her forever. But of course, he can't say they will. Who knows what will happen with them.

When the credits come on, they still lie there in silence, cuddling. It felt too good to be true for her, how did she get so lucky?
After a few minutes Fionn breaks the silence.
"Are you getting tired love?" he asks her with his soothing voice.
She smiles and her cheeks turn red. She loves it when he calls her love, way more than babe or baby. She usually prefers to call the guy babe or baby, but she likes it a lot better when a guy calls her love. And he was doing exactly that.
"Yeah, but i don't want to go home" she says nuzzling into his chest more.
He laughs making her smile even more.
"You don't have to yet, i don't want you to leave either" he says.
In that exact moment, something happened. Something she thought was impossible, something that can't happen so soon. Love. Was this love? It can't be, it's so soon, they're not even dating. But she wanted to just blurt it out, she loves him. But she wasn't going to tell him. At least not until they're official. If they even will ever become a couple.
"Tonight was great" she says.
"Yes, it definitely was" he replies.
"But, tomorrow will be much better" he adds to his sentence.
And he meant that, he had so much planned for tomorrow. Since he didn't have any appointments tomorrow he could spend the whole day with her. Which is exactly what he is going to do.
"Why can't you just tell me now what we're going to do tomorrow?" she asks.
"Because, it is a surprise" he teases.
"But.." she whines making him laugh.
"No buts! It is a surprise and you will find out tomorrow what we will be doing" he says sternly with a little chuckle at the end.
"Ugh, fineeeeeeee" she complains.
"You're so cute" he says while playing with her hair.
"And you're so mean" she replies making them both laugh.
She could hear his heartbeat as her head rested on his chest. It was calming, it could make her fall asleep in seconds if she closed her eyes.

"Hey, Ali" Fionn says, slowly stroking the hair off her face and tucking it behind her ear.
"Hmm?" she hums opening her eyes and looking up at him.
"You fell asleep, it's 12am" he says calmly.
She jolts up and sits up straight on the bed.
"Shit! i have to go home! My parents will be worried sick!" she says stressing out.
"Hey hey calm down" he says with his calm voice, which actually does calm her down.
"Everything will be fine, I'll take a taxi with you home and then I'll take a taxi back here to the hotel" he says.
"No, you don't have to waste your money on a taxi just to drive home with me and then leave again straight away" she replies.
"Well first of all, i wouldn't be wasting my money and second, i don't want you walking alone on the streets at this time of night or even catch a taxi alone at this time of night" he says.
"You're too sweet" she replies smiling.
"I care about your safety, i care about you" he says making her blush.
They both get up from the bed and get all their things before heading downstairs to the entrance. Fionn calls a taxi as they walk outside to the sidewalk next to the road.
"A taxi will be here in about 5 minutes" he says while turning off his phone and putting it in the pocket of his raincoat.
She nods and sits down on the curb of the sidewalk waiting for a taxi. He joins her and puts his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him as she rests her head on his shoulder. The taxi finally arrives, stopping in front of them. They both get in and Alice gives the driver the address of her house as he drives off.

Not long after, they finally arrive at her house. Fionn gets out and walks to her side opening her car door. She giggles as he does so and gets out. He takes her hand and interlocks their fingers while they walk over to her front door.
"Thank you, for tonight. I loved it" she says while turning around to look at him.
"I loved it too" he says.
Their hands slowly start letting go of each other as she turns around to unlock the front door but he grabs hold of her hand and turns her around. Their eyes meet and suddenly the whole world was in slow motion.
"Be mine" Fionn says out of the blue.
"Be my girlfriend" he adds to his sentence.
She smiles and feels her heart start racing like crazy.
"Of course" she says.
She places her soft lips on his, both closing their eyes as she does.
"I'll see you tomorrow" she says and turns around to unlock the door.
She steps inside and turns around once more to look at him.
"Goodbye Ali" he says with a smile.
"Goodbye Fionn" she says and closes the door.
He turns around and gets back into the taxi, apologizing to the driver for the wait. She locks the front door behind her and turns around again, noticing the roses he had given her sitting on the kitchen counter.
"And where have you been?" she hears her mother say as her mother turns a light on while walking downstairs.
"I uh, was out with a friend" she replies.
"A friend? and did this friend give you these roses?" her mum asks.
"I..." she says but stops herself not knowing what to say.
"You went out with a boy didn't you?" her mum asks.
"Yes mum. I did. And since i am 18 i can make my own decisions" she says getting annoyed.
"You're still living under my house, so you still have to obey my rules" her mum says.
"Well you guys are never home so it was starting to feel like i lived alone" she says.
"Oh really? Says the one who came home at 12:30am!" her mum says raising her voice.
"I fell asleep okay!! I was watching a movie with Fionn and i fell asleep, what can't i even make one fucking mistake anymore accidentally falling asleep and it's already like I'm breaking the law?!!" she yells to her mum.
"Don't you dare raise your voice at me young lady! You could've at least messaged me to let me know what you were doing!" her mum yells.
"Well i forgot okay!! I probably forgot you even exist because you're never home!!" she yells and her mother sighs.
"Look Alice, I'm sorry your dad and i are never home okay? We're just really busy at work and we work long hours. You should've told us that it was bothering you" her mum says.
"I just want to move out mum, i want to live my own life. Not be your little teenage daughter anymore" she says.
"If that's what will make you happy, then you're dad and i will discuss what we can do and help you find something" her mum says.
"I don't need help, I'm capable of taking care of myself" she says.
"Well we're always here to help" her mum says.
"I'm going to go to bed now, goodnight mum" she says and walks upstairs with the roses in her hand.
She was still annoyed at her mum, she isn't their little teenage daughter anymore. She's an adult and she wants to live her own life and take care of herself. When she reaches her room she places down the roses along with her stuff and straight away gets changed into something comfy before getting into her bed. She gets out her phone to check her notifications one last time and sees that Fionn had messaged her, which makes her smile.

Fionn: goodnight love, see you tomorrow x

Ali: goodnight x

She turns off her phone and closes her eyes, recapping all of the events from tonight as she slowly falls asleep.

This was a long one haha x
