Bottled Up // Finn Wolfhard book 2

XII

A/N hi so it's Christmas and I'm on holiday and wrote this whole chapter on my phone (I usually write on my Mac) so idk how wacky the spelling may be but enjoy and merry Christmas :)

YOUR POV

"ELI?!" I yelled jumping over the fence easier than before, at the sound of his name the blonde haired boy glanced my way before looking back to a seemingly defensive Finn, stationed in front of his car

"what are you doing, how did you know we were out here, I thought i told you to stay away until I-" "I saw on the snapmap that you and Finn were out here ALONE and thought maybe he'd got the sensation to suddenly kill you, so I'm sorry for wanting to protect MY girlfriend" his voice sounded deeper than usual as he expressed his obvious anger in the word 'my'

"but i see now that you two were just having a little picnic" Eli motioned to the bag of plates and bowls in my hand as well as the food in the boot of Finns car, Finn narrowed his eyes at Elliott. I could tell he wanted to say something but everyone stood deathly silent until Finn finally spoke up

"if she's your girlfriend then why'd you hurt her"

Eli shot a foul look at me before marching my way "what'd you say to him, were you that desperate for attention?" he spat, my mouth just opened and closed, no words came out, why couldn't I speak?

"woah woah woah, she didn't tell me anything" Finn said calmly as he jumped forward, stepping between the fuming boy and me "I just assumed from, her telling you to stay away and that bruise on her cheek as well as the fact she's been jumpy all day that maybe you were to blame but I guess you just confirmed my suspicions" Finn explained, now inches from Eli and his back turned to me.

"you don't know shit Finn Wolfhard" Elliott placed his hands on Finns chest and shoved him backwards making me jump out of the way just in time, now I took the place between the two boys

"don't touch him!" I screamed in Eli's face making him smirk "look at that Finn you can't even speak for yourself, Y/N had to stand up for you" he laughed, "stop Elliott" I warned sternly as Finn came and stood next to me

"why'd you hurt her? what'd Y/N do that made you hit her" the raven haired boy continued to ask "if you keep talking I'll hit you too movie star" Eli stepped forward with his fists raised

he wasn't going to listen to me, I couldn't tell him to stop I had to make him calm down somehow

before Eli could swing at Finn I stepped closer to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, bending my legs slightly "okay, let's go home babe, I want to go home" my words sounded shakier than I intended, exposing more emotion than I wanted to

"home? like back to Canada?" Elliott spoke softer than before, resting his chin on my head as I nodded "wait Y/N...you don't actually want to go do you?" Finn sounded hurt which broke my heart, but this was the only way to prevent him from getting physically hurt

"I'm sorry Finn, I really did have fun today....I'm sorry" my throat tightened with each word, I pulled back from Eli and he kissed me roughly before placing his arm around my waist as we started walking toward the blonde boys car

"you'll text me right?" Finn yelled his voice cracking when he said 'right' "don't be so hopeful mate" Eli called back, I could hear the smirk in his words which added to the guilt weighing on my shoulders
