FLASH BACK
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Hanna. You are so amazing." He said while he was holding my hand gently as he walked me back to my hotel on my last night in LA. It had been the most remarkable trip of my entire life. I had spent the entire trip getting to know Finn and also his really good friend Iris.
"Finn, you are so remarkable." I smiled sweetly and when I looked over at him he was turning a light shade of pink.
"I have a question for ya. If you could do anything right in this moment what would you do?" I looked over at him after I asked the question, and he looked nervous for some reason.
"I would kiss you."
"What's stopping you?"
The space between us got smaller and smaller as we were each stepping closer and closer. I eventually felt his breath on my face and his lips only centimeters from mine.
"I'm gonna kiss you now Hanna Landis."
"I'm gonna kiss back Finn Wolfhard."
And then our lips collided. It felt like all the weight that was priorly on my shoulders were gone. My back began to arch a little because I was sinking into the kiss. After a few more seconds we pulled away.
"Wow..." I muttered under my breath. He chuckled lightly as he looked into my eyes.
"That was one hell of a first kiss."
"You say first like we're gonna have more..." I said pretending to be serious.
"Oh..I just thought we had something going...if you don't feel the same that's ok--" I shut him up by kissing him gently once again.
"I was just kidding you dingus. So what does this make us?"
"I think this makes us exactly what you think it does."
I smiled bigger than I had in a while.
"Good..I'm glad." And with that we kept walking, happier than words could express.
