A Coincidence||Fionn Whitehead

41

Harry was the first to wake up the next morning slowly followed by everyone else until Fionn and Dotty were the only ones still asleep. They were cuddled up on the floor leaning against the wall, Dotty's head was on Fionn's chest and his forehead leaned on the crown of her head. His arms were wrapped firmly around her body holding her up and hers were holding onto his shirt. 

Jack blinked, rubbing his eyes, pointing at the pair, "Am I going mad? I swear that was at either end of the sofa last night." 

Harry grinned knowingly as the others conferred. Nobody noticed his face before Barry. "You know something," He claimed, "What happened."

"Nothing..."Said Harry still grinning widely as Fionn moved in his sleep lifting his head up so that his chin was now on Dotty's head. 

Aneurin's brows knitted together at the sight of Fion's puffy eyes and the tear stains on his cheeks. "He's been crying?" 

Harry nodded, "It was a misunderstanding that resulted in a happy ending." He told them. 

Nobody understood the riddle that had come out of Harry's mouth before Dotty stirred, yawning as she woke up. She tried moving but found herself stuck. "Welp. This is going to be a problem." She stated tiredly. The girl tried prying Fionn's hands off of her stomach but he only tightened his grip. She sighed and leaned back into him noticing everyone staring at her. "Oh, hello."

"Miss Nolan, care to explain whatever this is?" Smirked Tom, his eyebrows raised in amusement. 

"Well, you see..."Dotty trailed off as Fionn grumbled. 

"Leave her alone." Said Fionn, his eyes fluttering open as a yawn escaped his lips. "What time is it?"

Shona told him the time as she perched herself on Barry's lap. Fionn nodded and buried his head into Dotty's shoulder. "It's too early!"

With everyone finally fully awake and a McDonald's breakfast in them, they made their plans for the day. They all decided to go and watch a film at the cinema and with that, they got dressed and went. Fionn had Dotty in his car with Shona and Barry. Tom in his car had Harry, Jack and Aneurin and Tom (H). 

Eventually, everyone had worked out that Fionn and Dotty had finally got together and to say they were happy and relieved too was an understatement. Tom wrapped the girl up in a hug congratulating her quietly and then discretely messaged Chris to tell him what had happened. 

That resulted in Dotty having a half an hour phone call with her parents and Fionn being warned by Chris with the usual fatherly warnings, but also congratulating the pair. Everyone seemed to be treating it as if they had gotten engaged, throwing 'well done's' and 'congrats' at them left right and centre. 

In the car, Dotty sat up front with Fionn leaving the other couple in the back who was snapchatting pictures and videos of the new couple acting very awkward, still, and sending them straight to the others.

Fionn's car was an automatic meaning he didn't have to change gears, but that also meant he was unsure whether he should hold onto his girlfriend's hand or place it on her knee or just keep it to himself. He caught Barry's eyes in the mirror and sent him a confused look making the Irish lad laugh. He sent Fionn a wink which was no use at all and the boy just sighed keeping his hand to himself. 

Tom was following Fionn and the group were discussing Dotty and Fionn. 

Jack laughed, "you know people make up 'ship names' for couples, them two have the worst names to join together. It can either be, Fotty, which isn't great or Dionn, which yet again is not the best of words."

"They're horrible!" Cried Tom (H) grimacing, "He's turning left!"

Tom quickly clicked his indicator to the left and turned after Fionn's car. 

Harry glanced down at his phone a chuckled, "Apparently, Barry says it's rather painful watching Fionn and Dotty sitting awkwardly and stealing short glances at each other. He said Fionn has gone to take her hand but stopped himself. They're so...innocent." The lads all laughed nodding in agreement as Harry received another text from Barry. "We've gone wrong, Fionn said just continue following him, roadworks have diverted traffic."

Tom nodded and continued following Fionn until a landrover decided to cut him up. "BASTARD!" Snapped the blonde, breaking quickly. "Sorry 'bout that, shit, I've lost Fionn. Can someone call one of them?"

"I'm on it!" Said Jack ringing Dotty. "Hi, yeah, some prick cut us up, which way did you guys go?....she said left and then second on the right....okay, then what?"

"Go straight and exit the roundabout on the third exit. Right...Jack, we've pulled over in a loading bay, when we see you we'll keep going." Dotty told him, "Fionn stop, seriously, if you want to hold my hand, hold my hand." She laughed as Jack relayed what she had told him to Tom. 

"Cheers, Dot, we can see you," Jack replied and Fionn pulled out in front of them. "See you in a bit."

"Alright." Dotty ended the call. "Seriously, Fionn, just give me your bloody hand." Fionn held onto her hand and blushed keeping his eyes on the road, flicking them to the mirror to check that Tom was still behind him. 

They arrived at the theatre car park and as Fionn parked, Dotty jumped out and went to pay for the parking ticket, Harry joining her, the pair not giving, Fionn and Tom the chance to protest. They both paid for four hours and returned to the cars they came in to put the ticket in the window. 

"You didn't have to do that. It's my car, I should pay." Fionn mumbled to her. 

"Not gonna happen, Fionnly." She replied shaking her head. "See it as my apology for last night."

"But we agreed to forget it," Fionn told her. 

She nodded, "And we will...now."
