"How much longer? My feet are literally killing me!" I groan as Finn pulls me by my hand to follow his lead.

"Oh stop complaining you lazy sack of potatoes."

My feet come to a halt at the words he had used to declare my laziness and body figure.

"So you're saying I'm fat?"

"Oh no, not this please not this." Finn runs a hand over his hair and places them on his hips just standing there waiting for the rant to come.

"I will have you know that I am not a sack of potatoes, I am more like a... like a...."

"Like a curvy beautiful woman, I didn't mean to call you a sack of potatoes," Finn said finishing my statement.

"Well actually I did but not because you look like a sack of potatoes but because you're lazy and don't want to walk to our destination."

I gasp and push Finn lightly on the shoulder.

"I will have you know that we have been walking for a long time and I despise any form of exercise." I cross my arms and begin walking next to Finn. I've always hated walking in the city. The fact that there were so many people surrounding me at all times did not make it any better at all.

"Don't worry princess we will be there soon and the moment you get there I will bet you all the money in my wallet that all this exercising will have been worth it."

I roll my eyes in response and Finn wraps an arm around my shoulder bringing me closer to him.

"So what do you say princess? Is it a bet?"

"Okay, I guess it's a bet but don't whine and cry when I go home with your walled in my bag."

"Trust me princess you will love this place."

"We'll see."

I stood there looking at the sign above the entrance, it spelt out the name of a little café called A Poets Mug.

Out of all the places that Finn could have taken us he decided that another café besides his would be the most life changing.

"Wow another café, I didn't expect this at all." I say sarcastically as I turn to give Finn a questioning look as if asking him, "why the hell would you take me to another café."

"Listen Emma I know that a café is probably the last place that you want to be at, but I need you trust me when I say that this moment can honestly be life changing if you give me a chance to explain and a chance for you to experience something new."

Finn looked at me with a pleading look in his eyes that made me give in, "why the hell not, besides if I don't enjoy this life changing moment that you say I will experience then I will take your wallet home with me."
