Yet another morning of waking up with my eyes puffy and red from crying, but I'm going to do something today, I can't just carry on moping and sitting in bed. I throw on my favourite hoodie and some leggings but leave my phone on my bed.
"Mum?" I knock on her bedroom door, "I'm going out."
"May I ask where?" I hear her reply from the other side of the door. I swing open the door and give her a smile, looking at the floor.
"The tree, I just want to sit there and think, is that dumb?"
She chuckles to herself, knowing that this is mine and Finns favourite spot, "no, of course it's not dumb, when will you be back?"
"No idea, I have a lot to think about." I say turning to leave.
"Well, have a nice timeeeee." I could hear a smirk in her voice, she only uses that voice when she's up to something.

On the way out I grab my keys and some water, then I walk to the park.

~AFTER THE WALK~

I plop down at the base of the tree. Above me the leaves of this majestic tree are rustling in the gentle breeze, I take a deep breath in and close my eyes, feeling the warm air surround me. I'm preparing myself. Preparing myself to go to Finns house and let him explain. I'm now ready to hear what he has to say because I love him.

I love him more than anything in the world.

Suddenly my thoughts are interrupted by a small pebble whacking into my leg. Ow.

"Oh shit. That wasn't meant to hit you, I was trying to be cute by kicking a stone. You know, like an angsty, I'm really sorry kind of thing ."
I'd recognise that voice anywhere. I grin and look up at him, he's got his hand on the back of his neck and he's squinting at me. He has a huge bunch of flowers and a framed picture of us I can't help but smile, this is so romantic. I didn't know Finn did this kind of stuff.
"How did you know I would be here." I say, still with a smile plastered on my face.
He slowly sits down next to me. "I have my sources." He says tapping the side of his nose, I guess trying to be mysterious, but failing.
I chuckle "My mum rang you didn't she?"
"Well yes." He laughs, starting to blush. "but it's a coincidence I didn't see you here anyway, I was going to come today even if your mum didn't call me."
"Why?" I look at his blushing cheeks.
"Because even though I haven't seen you in only a few days, I still miss the shit out of you Y/N, and this is our favourite spot, and I guess it makes me feel close to you" he cringes, "that was too cheesy wasn't it." I laugh and shake my head.
"Well do you want to explain what happened then, with Millie." I look back down at the ground.
"We were arguing at first-"
"Yeah, I heard that bit." I reply.
"Yeah, I'm not surprised. She was going on about how she couldn't believe we were dating and how she "knew" that I still like her. Which I don't! Y/N, you have to believe me." He places his hand over mine.
"I do, carry on." I say, grabbing hold of his hand and squeezing it reassuringly.
"So then I kept saying that I didn't and that she was jealous. That's when she started crying. She said that her and Jacob had broke up because he cheated and then how she wanted to date me again and go public this time. At this point I asked her to leave and I guess you came to the top of the stairs, because she grabbed my shirt and kissed me. And then I heard you cry and run down the stairs as I pushed her off me."
"I didn't see that bit." I look up guiltily. My mum was right, she always is.
" I tried calling after you but you ignored me, so I grabbed my coat and followed you home to apologise and explain-"
"But I didn't let you." I let out a sigh, I can't believe I went through all that pain and heartbreak over nothing. "Finn, I'm so sorry." A tear rolls down my cheek. "I should've trusted you, it's just the fact that it was her of all people. And I guess I thought...."
"What? What did you think?" I can feel his eyes  on the side of my cheek.
"That you'd always pick someone like her over me."
He grabbed me and pulled me into a tight hug.
"I love you Y/N L/N, I will always choose you. You're perfect."
I sob into his shoulder and then look up at his face. He's smiling down at me. The biggest smile I've ever seen.
"I love you too Finn Wolfhard, so much." I laugh through my tears as he wipes my tear soaked cheek with his thumb. He places his hand on my chin and pulls my face towards his. He gently parts his lips and kisses me. I kiss back snaking my arms around his neck. I pull back and look into his sparkling eyes. "Are we ready to film the final scene tomorrow?"
"I can't wait." He says quickly before leaning in again.
