Finn's POV

She was literally hovering over me, inches away from my face.

Her beautiful green eyes made me melt. We stared at each other for a few seconds and just froze. I felt like my heart was beating through my chest.

No other girl has made me feel this way before. I've been blind this whole time.
Every time she's around my stomach flips and I never knew why.

Everything was adding up and I've been too dumb to realise.
I like Mia.
I have a crush.

Watching her smile makes me smile. Everything she does...

Words don't even describe her.

I love her laugh, and her personality. How she's so caring and thoughtful.

I hate it how I dragged her into all of this with Tommy, and I won't forgive myself. Because I know how much she's been through. It was all my fault.

The thing that sucks, is that who even knows what she thinks of me.

It's a Tuesday and we only have five more days on this cruise.

The four of us are out on the main deck. It's a hot day and we're sitting down drinking lemonade at a small drinks bar.

Luke and Chloe had their own conversation next to Mia and I. They were arguing about basketball.

Why do they always bring that up as a topic to talk about?

"Well how come you aren't in the team at school, huh?" Chloe said. "Finn and Mia are better than you and they fell over each other." She stated.

What Chloe said made me think about last night. And I think Mia thought the same because she smiled as she went to take a sip of her drink through her straw.

Knowing how I now felt about her, made my stomach flip once again.

I looked at her and smiled too. But quickly turned my head and continued to play with the straw in my drink before she looked at me.

Mia's POV

I smiled as Chloe said that.

It reminded me of when we fell over and I landed on Finn. The way he looked at me and how I felt hadn't left me yet. I couldn't stop thinking about him. Not just about what happened yesterday, but other times as well.

Just sitting next to him made me feel nervous that I might embarrass myself in front of him.

When I took a sip of my drink I could feel Finn looking at me, but when I looked at him, he had quickly turned his head and continued poking at the lemon in his drink with his straw.

Him next to me made the butterflies that were in my stomach grow, until this feeling made it seem normal whenever he's around. I couldn't control it.

I couldn't help but smile when I felt him looking at me, even when he thinks I don't know.

I think I have a crush.
