the storm
finn's pov

i wake up, but not in my own room. i suddenly remember the party last night and then - oh shit. i turn to see maddie, naked, lying next to me. i had sex with maddie last night.

millie's pov
i arrive at school to hear everyone gossiping and whispering about graces party last night, personally, i couldn't give a shit. i finally see sadie at her locker with iris and lilia.
i run up to them and sadie quickly turns around.

"guess what" she says.
"what"
"apparently maddie and the new guy, finn, had sex and grace's party last night" she says.
my eyes widen, i didn't know to feel about what she just said. i definitely wasn't jealous. i hate him. i felt bad for maddie, even though she is a bitch, because i know he will just leave her like he does with every girl once they have had sex. i don't understand how she could let herself fall for him.

"well- i don't care" i blurt out.
"most girls in the school do" iris says.
"what? why?"
"because, he is hot, and now nobody else will have a chance with him"
"why?"
"because it's maddie, she will ruin your fucking life if you even go near him"

after school
unluckily for me, it was raining after school and i didn't have a lift back since sadie was at a meeting. i didn't have a coat either. i became drenched within minutes of walking, i became cold too. the rain was heavy, really heavy. the winds became stronger causing me to almost fall about five times.

finn's pov
i was driving home by myself today, the weather was shit. it was raining heavily and the winds were really fucking strong. i suddenly see a girl walking down the street. she was soaking wet and obviously struggling. i go to stop when i notice it is millie. i then drive ahead. why the fuck should i stop for her. i don't give a shit about her. but what if something happens to her, then I will feel bad. i reluctantly reverse slowly, to see millie look up at me, drenched. she rolls her eyes at me and continues to walk.

"MILLIE!" i shout.
she angrily turns around. "WHAT FINN?! WHAT DO YOU WANT?" she screams over the loud noise of rain.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE RAIN?!" i shout back.
"WALKING HOME! WHAT DO YOU THINK" she screams back.
"FOR FUCKS SAKE MILLIE, JUST GET IN"
"NO, I WOULD RATHER DROWN IN A PUDDLE"
"MILLIE JUST GET IN THE DAMN CAR"

we suddenly hear thunder from a distance, meaning the storm is obviously going to get worse. she jumps at the loud noise and runs towards my car and jumps into it. she looks at me and then stares ahead. she tells me her address and then after that we don't speak at all, we just sit and listen to the rain hit the car. i don't know why i helped her, i wasn't going to. she is a nobody to me. i hate her.

i pull up outside her house and she quickly jumps out.
"thank you, i guess" she mumbles before slamming the car door and running inside.

millie's pov
i run inside from finn's car. i was confused. why did he give me a lift? we hate each other. i run upstairs to my bedroom and put my phone on charge since it was flat, i then get a shower since my hair was a mess. as i step into the hot shower i can see the rain dripping down the large window in front of me. it brings me back to sitting in finn's car.
although we didn't speak, i kept thinking about him, i wanted to look at him but that would be weird, i can't stop thinking about him.

i get out the shower to hear my phone getting a notification, it was a text. a peer closer to see a text from jacob satorius. i blush when i see it. i have liked him for a while now, i am always to shy to talk to him.

jacob 😍; hey millie, i haven't talked to you in a while but you should come to my party next week, bring your friends, see you then ;)

millie; yeah of course! can't wait :)

the next day - lunch
i walk up to our table in the cafeteria. i notice finn is sat there which makes me feel awkward since he was actually nice to me yesterday, maybe he has changed.

"millie!" sadie says excitedly as she pats the spot next to her.
i walk over and look at finn, he looks back at me and then his glance turns into a glare. i sit down, confused. he seems to be acting like a prick again.

"uh guys-" i say awkwardly. everyone turns to look at me, except finn who continues to eat his food.
"i got a text from jacob satorius yesterday and he invited me to his party, and i was wondering if you all wanted to come too" i announce. everyone agrees, except finn who doesn't say anything.
"hey, finn, are you coming?" gaten asks.
"uh i don't know, maybe" he mumbles, still paying attention to your food.
"come on finn!" noah pleads.
finn rolls his eyes and then finally agrees.

biology
sadly, i had biology last period. and what makes it ten times worse is mr brenner decided to give us a project. we had to work in two's so i instantly turn to iris who is sat behind me.

"wait-wait-wait" mr brenner says. "i am picking partners today, and it will be boys and girls since that's when you all behave best"
we all groan at his decision since it stops us from working with our friends. he reads out a long list of names and when he finally comes to me i start to panic, i don't want to be partnered with a dickhead.

"ok, millie and uh- how about finn!" he says. i freeze. of course he decides to pick finn, out of all the people in the class that is who he picks.
"uh sir, can we switch, i don't exactly like millie, like at all" he says
"well, maybe you can work out your differences while doing this project"
he reads out the rest of the names and then he tells us to sit next to our partner.
i look over to finn who ignores me and doesn't move from his seat, so i guess i am the one moving. i drag myself over and toss my bag on the floor. we don't speak until he breaks the silence.

"well- are you going to fucking speak?" he says.
"why should i be the one to speak first?" i ask. he rolls his eyes and then slouches into his chair.
"i don't fucking understand you" i say angrily while turning to face him.
"what are you talking about" he says with an annoyed expression on his face.
"you actually do something nice for once and give me a lift home, and then you turn into a prick again!"
"millie, don't expect me to be nice to you, we aren't friends and we never fucking will be, get that in your head"
"then why didn't you leave me in the rain to walk?" i mumble, looking down.
"i don't know, i should have" he says before leaving class as the bell goes.
