i looked down at my chest, to take yet another glance at the rose necklace. at first, when finn presented it to me, i thought there was no way in hell i was about to accept the generous gift.
and, i still felt like i couldn't quite trust him yet, even after he apologized multiple times, each time i was becoming more and more ignorant. ignorant to the fact that he hurt me for so long. and, truly, i didn't want to forgive him, i never wanted to.
yet, somehow, my mind kept on neglecting to see the flaws with the newfound interest, and it only recognized the good things. great hair, perfect lips, great cheekbones. those were the only things on my train of thought. finn wolfhard had gotten into my brain and was using it like a control center on my decision making process. no matter how hard i tried, he wouldn't get out of my head.
but, will good looks endure forever?
maybe, i mean, it is finn wolfhard.
i hadn't the slightest idea why i always failed to see his looks as a good thing. i knew that they probably wouldn't last forever.
unfortunately, he wasn't very academically present. he would occasionally skip class, to go smoke or drink, or do whatever he deemed so damn important that he had to do it in the middle of the school day.
finn had gotten stuck in my mind, for good, but with bad effects.

there she is. millie bobby brown. i thought as i strode into the old school building on a wednesday morning.
upon millie's neck hung the diamond rose, which made me gasp when i saw it.
a/n: ik this happens like every chapter buT EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE JUST STARTED PLAYING! i'm cryin in da club, bitches
i wondered why she would wear it, it would attract attention, and i knew that she didn't want that. but, regardless of people seeing us, i walked over to her, where she stood at her locker.
i saw the red paint that was stuck there, well what's left of it. they were able to get some of it off, but the janitor still had to paint over it with the dark gray color the neighboring lockers held.
she hadn't seen me yet, so i slowly closed her locker from behind it, making sure not to slam it shut.
her eyes widened and her cheeks grew a pink tone when she saw me. i smiled when i saw her face, and pointed to the flower around her neck.
she blushed furiously now, which made me feel accomplished.
"wanna skip school?" i asked quickly, not caring if i was too loud.
millie shook her head intensely, causing my eyebrows to knit together.
"why not?" i said.
"because, all you're going to want to do is go smoke and drink." she laughed, and i placed my hand over my heart to act offended.
"oh come on, millie. i'm not always like that. i don't just smoke and drink the days away." i explained to her. "i like to talk, engage in conversation, not just smoke and drink."
