Wrapped Around Your Finger (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 17: Oblivious

-.-

"Hey, are you home?"

"Yeah, why?" I asked and decided to put him on speaker to ask for (y/bff)'s opinion.

"Is it okay if I come over?"

I looked over at (y/bff) and she shrugged.
"Sure. When?"

"I'm five minutes away."

Sh*t I look like absolute crap

"Okay see you soon then."

I hung up and screamed into a pillow.
"I'll go ahead and go home so you two can talk it out. Text me all the details. Bye!"

After (y/bff) left, I changed out of my clothes into some decent clothes. I looked at myself in the mirror and groaned.

"You can tell I was crying. I have got to wash my face."

As I dried my face with a towel, I heard my bedroom door open. I freaked out and quickly threw my hair into a pony tail.

"Uh hey (y/n). You okay there?" Finn asked from the door frame.

"Hey! Yeah I'm okay. So...sit!" I said as I motioned towards my bed.

We both sat down and faced each other.
"So...?" I said.

"So...okay. About last night." Finn started. I stopped him before he could continue.

"Finn, it's fine. Really!"

"I'm sorry, you know I'm with Mariah and all."

I furrowed my eyebrows. He led me on to think that something could've happened.

"I know. I just...can we go the the beach for a while?"

-.-

We walked around our favorite hang out. It was still bright outside. After a while of silently walking, we sat down on a nearby bench.

"I have a question, a serious one." I cleared my throat, "If you cared so much about your arranged relationship with Mariah then why would you kiss me? That's considered cheating you know?"

"I don't care about my relationship with Mariah. It's an arranged relationship. I kissed you because...w-well I..." Finn stuttered.

"Yeah?" I was getting irritated by the second. "You lead me on to think that something was going to happen between us. That's f*cked up."

"I led you on? What do you mean?" Finn said, his face getting red.

"I like you, okay?"

He froze.
"What?"

"I like you Finn. I have for a while now, are you so oblivious that you have-" I got cut off by his kiss. At first I was shocked but then melted into it.

"I like you too (y/n)."

I laughed nervously and put my hand over my mouth. I'm acting like I haven't kissed him before. This felt different yet familiar.

-.-

We walked back to my house. The sun was barely about to set. The street lights were slowly turning on.

"So I guess I'll see you at school tomorrow?" Finn asked as we stood in front of my house.

"Yeah." was all I could muster out. I still haven't gotten over the fact that Finn likes me.

We stood there awkwardly for a while until he got the courage to kiss me. I kissed back, not wanting to let go. Unfortunately, he pulled back and waved as he looked over his shoulder. I waved back with a small smile on my face.

I went inside my house and ran upstairs to call (y/bff). She's going to freak.

-.-

Finn's POV

I pulled my phone out and dialed Josh's number.

"You won't believe what just happened." I said.

"What? Did you finally learn how to wipe?" Josh joked.

I rolled my eyes and laughed.
"No! Dude, (y/n) and I kissed."

"What's new?"

"No, no listen. She likes me!"

"Again, what's new? Dude don't tell me you couldn't tell this whole time? You're so f*cking oblivious."

"Did everyone else know besides me?"

"Yeah! So, what happened between the two of you?"

I explained every single thing that happened in detail with excitement visible in my tone.
"Remind me again why you two aren't together?"

"One word. Richardson."

-.-

( the next day bois )

(Y/N) POV

It was lunch time, Finn and I have spoken to each other but it's been a bit awkward. Not the bad awkward, the cute and sweet type of awkward. (Y/bff) took Finn's old spot by Josh and Finn took (y/bff)'s spot by me. Finn and I kept glancing at each other until Josh groaned.

"Can you two please stop? You're making me lose my f*cking appetite."

Both Finn and I laughed and did as Josh said. It was starting to get a bit weird. Out of no where, Mariah plopped down beside Finn and hugged him. Both of our smiles instantly faded.

"Hey Finn! So I was thinking we could throw you a going away party on Friday! At your place of course."

"That'd be cool, sure." Finn agreed.

"Yay! Okay, well I'm going to start planning as of right now. Bye!"

And with that, she left. I really don't want her to plan the party let alone be at it. She's against drinking and smoking which is all people do at parties. It's all I do at parties. She would just ruin everyone's mood.
( not condoning underage drinking or smoking this is just for your character bc she's low key a bad influence )

"She's going to make the party so lame." I said.

"Don't worry, I'll hook us up with stuff." Josh said as he pulled out his phone.

"Josh, no. (Y/n) is off probation and I don't think she would like to go back on it. Right?" Finn said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as we don't get caught." I shrugged.

"Seriously (y/n)?" (Y/bff) said.

"Josh I'd like some fireball." I commented, completely ignoring (y/bff)'s input.

He nodded and began typing.

Can you desire yet dread something?
