Chapter Fifty: About Time

*ALI'S POV*
-a couple weeks later-

"Finn! Please give me back my phone!" I screamed, reaching over him trying to grab it back.

We were in the middle of watching Riverdale, but apparently I was "too busy texting my lover boy".

"I love you so much Col. I love you too Ali. We all miss you here." He read from my messages, mocking my tone of voice. Or at least attempting to.

"Hey that is not what I sound like." I gave up trying to steal my phone back and sat criss-crosses on the couch.

"Is too." He stuck his tongue out at me like a child would.

"Is nooot!" I screamed, sticking my tongue back out at him.

Me and Finn, although we were close when I lived back here about a year ago, we've gotten even closer the past week that I've lived here.

It's been almost six weeks exact since I left California. I spent about five weeks recovering with my mother, Danny, and my grandparents. It was hard seeing my mother without my father, since they had been "high school sweethearts".

"Fine, here." He pouted, handing me my phone. I smiled and quickly took it from his grip, holding it close to me.

"Thank you fine sir," He laughed, getting up off of the couch and headed to the kitchen.

I opened the fridge, looking for some sort of food to eat.

"We seriously need to go shopping. There's nothing to eaaat!" I yelled as I dramatically slumped over the kitchen counter.

"I went shopping last time, it's your turn next." He said, grabbing a slightly bruised apple from the fruit basket on the counter.

"That's not fair, I literally just moved in." I laughed.

"Oh well," He laughed with me.

"How long are you gonna stay in Delft Al?" He asked suddenly.

"I honestly don't know. I love it here, but everyone is back in Los Angeles. I'll probably stay a few months. Just enough time to detox me from all the shit that has gone down in my family." I said, looking through all of the photos on my phone from back in LA.

"Oooooh let me see." Finn yelled, jumping over the counter to look over my shoulder at the pictures.

I swiped, picture after picture. I had hundreds of pictures of me and all of the guys and girls. Us on adventures, us having movie night, us at Disneyland, us at the Hollywood sign.

"How the hell did you end up finding such a hot guy?" He asked as I paused on a picture of me and Colby. I laughed at his comment. Of course, every girl has that one gay best friend. And Finn is mine.

"I honestly don't know," I laughed. A notification popped up on my phone.
