CHAPTER TWO: hearts thumping and you!
-
of course...
the young man walks down the street, trapping a groan in his throat that only comes out as a small grumble at the rain, because of course it's fucking raining!
he could go back inside and get an umbrella (and god knows where that craps at) and be even later for some stupid office party he doesn't even wanna go to.
thinking about it for only a split second, he ends up bracing for the rain instead; simply holding the jacket over his head in a poor attempt to be kept dry.
the guy doesn't seem to mind so much knowing that it would only be for a moment until he was inside the car and—"you've got to be kidding me?"
the car keys are all the way back up in his apartment.
how could i forget those?
trudging quickly, almost slipping, he reaches the porch of his apartment with irritation, slipping his hand into the front of his pocket only to come up empty; feeling only the now damp material squelching. his heart stutters at the sudden idiotic realization that his apartment keys were also inside, and that now there was no way inside because he'd locked the bottom on the way out of habit.
finn wolfhards life was always such an array of cluttering problems it seemed.
he curses loudly, rather glad that there aren't any kids that live near my him; he'd feel rather guilty.
finn knows he could stay here looking like a moron, all dressed up in a some what nice outfit, and wait for hours until his roommate, caleb, to come back. but that would take hours and he's already starting to feel like a human popsicle.
with great annoyance he decides to spend his time getting dry at the only near by dinner. they didn't serve the best food but they were warm and open 24 hours.
finn hadn't planned for things to go this way.
and no, not being dramatic in a sense that just today was horrible. but that his life in general had done a whole 180 after millie went away it seemed.
millie, the name brings happy memories that were painful. he thinks of her often.
middle school came and went excruciatingly slow without her. surprisingly he wasn't bullied in those three years, but he remained alone and he wondered if that was some what worse.
he was just there, existing. doing home work and lessons without so much as a complaint.
of course high school, like all things are, were worse. constantly picked on for being too scrawny and smart. since when was that a crime? and of course all the stupid couples around that hell hole that always wanted to make it a point that they were together.
but the point was rather revolting if you asked finn.
nobody wants to see your tongue down someone else's throat.
he'd thought college would be better, and it thankfully was a bit; able to open up and meet friends again.
he still thinks of her though. nobody can replace her even if they tried.
