me: aurora at 7?

finnlard: sure! can't wait to see u♡

i bite my lip to keep from grinning. i can't wait to see him. ever since the water park, we've been inseparable. hanging out in each others condos everyday, sitting next to each other at cast dinners and hangouts. i really think i'm falling in love with this boy.

now, i have to get ready. i can't look like trash tonight, even though finn sees me in sweatpants and a t-shirt everyday. but this is a special day, it's our first date. our first actual date. in a way, it's kind of sadie to thank for this. if it weren't for her, we probably wouldn't be here about to go on a date now. i just need a "push" as she calls it.

i scramble into my closet, desperately dragging out a dozen or more outfits. then i find it: a simple, maroon colored dress. it's a soft, stretchy texture, making it not too formal, but it still looks nice. i tug on the form fitting dress, smoothing it down in the full length mirror. next, hair and makeup. making my way in the bathroom, i pull my hair into a messy bun, just to get it out of the way for my makeup. i apply a simple amount of makeup, making sure not to cake it on like i've seen people do. then hair. i take it down from it's bun and smooth it down around my shoulders. after deciding to straighten my naturally wavy hair, i pull out my flat iron and get to work. then, i'm done. i check myself in the mirror. i think i look pretty good.

paige struts into the bathroom. "aww, my millster's all grown up," she pretends to wipe away a tear. "really though, you look gorgeous. finn better treat you right."

"he's a good guy, don't worry," i assure her. "time?"

"6:54," she responds. i nod.

"he'll be here soon," i say nervously.

"relax," she soothes, rubbing my shoulders. "lemme take a picture of you. trust me, you'll want it in the future,"

reluctantly, i make my way to the living room and put on a smile. she clicks the button on her phone. "i'll send it to you," she winks.

there's a knock on the door.

the color leaves my skin. "go get it," paige chuckles, giving me a push towards the door.

i shyly open the door. it's just finn.

there finn stands in suit and- what a coincidence- a maroon tie. in his hands are a bouquet of roses. oh my god, this boy.

"aww, finn, thank you so much," i whisper as he hands me the flowers.

"you look beautiful," he murmurs back. i hand the flowers to paige, and she puts them in some water.

"well, have-" she starts to say, but i cut her off.

"wait! can you grab my polaroid camera?" she hurries into my room, then back out, carrying the baby blue camera that she got me for my 13th birthday.

"strike a pose!" she teases, getting it ready. finn and i draw close, and he wraps his arm around my waist. "alright, it's ready," paige says.

the picture slowly prints out, and i take it into the kitchen to label it. "finn&millie: first date 6/7/18" i write.

"that's adorable," paige remarks as i set it down. "alright, well have fun!"

she ushers finn and i out of the door, probably desiring some alone time. my guess is she'll be binge watching netflix the whole time we're gone.

this is it. what i've been waiting for for three days. my first date. ever.

"really mills. you look amazing," finn says softly. i lean against him.
