I looked at the time on my phone as I pulled back some of my straightened hair, it was 8:02 and I knew Millie was going to turn up any second now. I grabbed my white purse and slipped on my white heels. "I see you're ready for your date." my dad laughed, looking up from the TV.
"He's not my date! It's a party, dad." I laughed, rolling my eyes. I made my way to the wrong door as I heard a knock.
"Good luck." My dad said with a wave. "Millie, make sure my daughter comes back in one piece!" he reminded my best friend as she stood in the door way.
"Sure will, Sir Sink! Let's go, you look stunning by the way." Millie said eagerly, grabbing my hand.

We soon arrived at the venue, the pink and purple coloured lights highlighted the white sofas. Then my eyes met his and he began walking over to us. "Hey, girls." Finn said, obviously checking me out, it gave me a panic attack but I managed not to show it.
"Hey! I'm going to grab a drink, Sadie? Do you want me to grab you something?" Millie said, obviously trying to get Finn and I alone.
"Uh, can I have a white wine please?" I asked her, with a smile on my face.
She winked, "Of course, little Sink, come with, Sophia." Sophia nodded and followed the energetic young woman. Things stayed silent between Finn and I, until he spoke up.
"You look really nice, by the way. You look really good in light colours." he told me. I smiled and looked at the ground.
"Thank you." I smiled at the ground. He just stared at me, then I stared back. Suddenly, someone's arm yanked me away from him. In shock, I tried to make out who it was in the dim lights. It was a very drunk Jack. "Jack! What the hell?" I almost yelled, taking my arm from his grip.
"Sadie, we- I- we need to talkhhh." his words were slurred as he stumbled around.
"No, not now. Not when you're like this, Jack. Can I not have one night where you don't fucking ruin it?" I said in anger, walking away from him. He grabbed my arm hard, I had just had an injection so it was bruised, causing me to yell out in pain.
"Please Sadie!" he tried to plead with me, his grip tightening every second.
"Jack you're hurting me!" I cried, trying to pull my arm out of his secure grip. I felt someone hold me from behind, I glanced behind me and there he was, again, protecting me.
"Jack, get the fuck off her or I will beat the literal shit out of you." He warned Jack, pulling my arm away from him. He loosened his grip and Finn escorted me away. "I'm sorry about him."
"It's okay, Finn. He's just a mess, I get it. I'll talk to him tomorrow." I said, and he nodded in agreement. Then I saw Asher across the room and my stomach began to churn. I think Finn noticed this, he held my hand and smiled at me, giving me butterflies.
"Just stay with me, okay?" then we began got walk through the crowd, clutching onto each other's hands.
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW SHE IS LITERALLY LEANING ON HIM???
I hope y'all are excited (:
It's a different story line to all my other books, Finn and Sadie both are adults and they have history, as you can see in the title.
idk when it'll be published, but I'll let you guys know (:
