It was Friday, Period 3, 2 days after the fight. It was math and I couldn't bear to see Asher after all of those rumors about Noah and I. Finn got expelled and I figured we needed to talk, so I skipped class and strolled the streets, in hopes of finding him.
And I eventually did, sat on a bench, looking out the empty road. I sat beside him and we sat in silence for a few minutes until I decided to speak. "Why did you stick up for me?" I asked, turning my head to make eye contact with him.
"You don't treat girls like that, especially girls like you." Finn said, a sigh following it. I felt butterflies in my stomach at the phrase 'girls like you'. "I care about you Sadie, I know all I've done in our highschool life is make fun of you, but I guess it was jus friendly banter." I nodded in agreement.
"But was it really necessary to beat the shit out of my ex-boyfriend?" I chuckled slightly.
"Yeah." he smirked, "he's just jealous because you've moved on and he still wants you. And he's jealous of me... because of, you know, how we almost kissed at prom." We stayed quiet after that. I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tight, and to my surprise, he hugged back, giving me butterflies.
"Thank you." I muttered.
"Thank you for what?" he said, still holding me in a cuddle.
"For being there for me." I smiled into his shoulder.
