Finn's P.O.V:

As I watched my crazy, yet charming brother run into the store to go see Skylar, Heather started to flood my mind again. God, I feel like I'm obsessed with her. Do you ever just get that feeling that when you're around that special someone, everything that they do just makes you happy? Well, yeah. Everything Heather does and yes I do mean everything, I just smile and I feel like a freaking wimp when I do. I sighed and leaned against the wall, waiting for the ladies and my brother to come out of the store.

As Heather finally walked out with a huge smile on her face she swung her bag around her wrist then made that cute giggle she always made. Cute giggle. What the hell? I sighed as I swallowed the lump in my throat and finally grabbed her hands, pulling her beside me as I whispered in her ear, my body hovering over hers. "We need to talk." I stated and she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, finally looking up at me and nodded her head in agreement even though she didn't understand what was going on. I finally let go of her and she continued staring at me which made my jaw tense, so I grabbed her hand and we walked out of the building, leaning against the brick wall.

"Finn..What's wrong? Why do you want to talk?..Is it something I did wrong?" Heather breathed out as she locked her baby blue eyes with my piercing greenish bluish ones. "I um..don't know how to say this." I sighed and ran my hands through my curly brown quiff, looking down at my feet as I finally shut my eyes, growing silent. I knew she was looking at me, it was like I felt a hard yet worried glare coming from her. Tell her Finn, tell her how you feel. I thought and parted my lips, leaving them agape as I felt the cool summer breeze hit against my skin. Before I could even say anything, I heard footsteps coming closer and closer. Click clack. The sound continued to come close and I finally opened my eyes then furrowed my eyebrows as I saw a tall frame stand in front of Heather. 

End of P.O.V.

Heather's eyes widened as she looked at the tall boy standing in front of her. He took his manly like hands in hers as a smile crept onto his precious face. "Heather. Long time no see." The guy stated frantically as he chuckled softly, gazing at her impeccable features and left Finn completely lost as he stood in front of the guy, holding out his hand. "Finn Harries. We were kind of in a middle of a-" The guy cut him off and rolled his eyes as his blue eyes stared into Finn''s greenish ones, he raised a brow. "I don't care what you two were in the middle of. As you can see, I'm far more important than you are." Finn clenched his fist as he nodded slightly, he was clearly pissed but he wasn't going to do anything in front of Heather. "I'm Chris Collins as you can see, Heather and I grew up together during middle school but we lost contact." Heather scoffed and looked at Chris, her eyes softening a bit. "No. You just became famous and decided to cope with your so called fans, not your friends." Heather implied as she rolled her eyes, crossing her arms over her chest and leaned against the cold brick wall. Chris chuckled softly, his chest vibrating a bit as he shoved his hands in his pockets, directing his gaze towards Heather, clearly forgetting that Finn was in front of him. 

"Which is why we need to talk." Chris firmly stated as his eyes grew with hurt and Finn rolled his eyes and looked at both of them. "Finn and I were clearly in the middle of a conversation, weren't we Finn?" she stated in her adorable accent, Heather's cheeks were a deep shade of pink, her ears heating up a bit because she was frustrated now. Finn looked down and fiddled with his fingers and shook his head in disagreement. "..Actually no. Whatever I had to say doesn't really matter now, does it?"  Finn shrugged slightly, blood rushing to his cheeks as they became pink and he chewed on the bottom of his pink plump lips. He gave Chris one more hard glare as he walked back into the mall to meet up with his twin brother Mason and Skylar.

Heather sighed and her eyes met Chris's, pondering deeply. Chris grabbed her hand and grinned deviously as he pulled her off the wall, walking her down the street then slid his arm over her shoulders. He leaned down beside her as they continued to walk, whispering in her ear with his husky deep voice, smirking as he kissed her ear.  "You're mine now."
