Finn and the Virgin (based off Trevor and the Virgin)

Episode 3 - The Party

Jaws dropped open, and I'm pretty sure the music screetched to a stop. Did Finn just call me his girlfriend!?

He's beaming down at me and I'm glaring up at him.

"He's kidding, everyone. We're just friends."

"Oh stop being so coy, Mills. We're in love!" I look at him in disbelief: Mills?! That dimple appears again as he fights a smile.

"Umm, excuse us for a minute." I drag him back towards the door. "What do you think you're doing?!" He leans against the door jamb, grinning at me.

"Just trust me. If people think we're together... They're going to start wondering who you are. Which means that they'll be interested."

"But if Jacob thinks I'm taken he'll never talk to me!" Finn looks away, as if he's suddenly uncomfortable. He runs a hand through his thick curly brown hair.

"Millie, you're very naive. It's BETTER if Jacob thinks you're with someone - especially me."

"Why especially you?"

"He's very competitive with me. And I know him better than you do. I'm trying to warn you about what type of person he is-"

"And who is going to believe this anyway?" I wave a finger between us. "Have you ever even had a girlfriend?!" Finn makes a face like he's just bitten into a lemon.

"Uh no. Guys like me don't do girlfriends... We do one night stands." I want to ask what he means by "guys like him"... But a shadow suddenly falls over us. My heart skips a beat when I look up and see Jacob. My god, he's so handsome. Full head of brown hair, hazel brown eyes, and a whole smile that could make a girl's knees weak. "Jacob, what's up man?"

"Nothing much. Good to see you, Finn." Jacob's eyes are bright as he turns to look down at me. "And you brought a friend. You look familiar but...I'm not sure we've met." I tamp down my disappointment.

"We were lab partners. Your sophomore year." He nods cheerfully.

"That's right! Man, that class was a joke, wasn't it? I didn't learn a thing." I don't agree, but decide I don't care. Jacob is actually talking to me. I think of rule number one and make eye contact with him. Then I say...

"I didn't either...but I had a great time working with you." His grin widens as he looks into my eyes. One second... Two seconds...

"SO - where's the beer?" Finn interrupts, a bit loudly in my opinion.

"Outside in the coolers. Say, why don't you two grab a few and come to the dining room? We're getting a game of Drink or Dare going."

"Sounds like fun. We'll be there!" I say.

"Sweet." Jacob winks at me before he walks away. Finn sighs - probably at the sight of my red cheeks. He pulls me outside to the deck and stares at me as he reaches into the cooler.

"Millie, I'm going to guess you've never played Drink or Dare before."

"No. But how hard can it be?"

"It's just...these games can get a little intense."

"I don't mind. This is my first real college party and Jacob has finally noticed me. I want to have fun."

"This is your first party?!"

"Yes!"

"But..." He shakes his head. "You keep surprising me."

"That's what I'm known for. Keeping men on their toes." I meant for him to laugh at my joke but he doesn't.

"Look, I get you want to have fun. I just want you to know what you're getting into."

"If Jacob's playing, I'm playing.

"Millie-"

"-You don't have to come if you don't want to." I grab a beer from his hand and head back inside. He's not the only one who's getting surprised tonight. Finn Wolfhard is definitely different from what I expected.

After a few moments, he follows me. When I get to the dining room I see Iris among the players... My confidence falters.

"Oh great. Red lipstick is here." Iris' eyes narrow dangerously as she takes in Finn and me. "Now she definitely knows I was lying to her earlier."

"Who cares? Just ignore her. That's what I do."

"That hasn't seemed to have worked for you yet." But I try to do just that as I take my seat.

Jacob starts explaining the rules and then announces he going first. My pulse quickens as I crack open my beer. I can't believe I'm actually doing this!"

"Iris, drink or dare?" Iris crosses and then uncrosses her long leg.s

"I'm feeling thirsty, Jacob. Drink." Jacob scans the crowd and grins when he lands on Finn.

"Drink with Finn." I feel Finn's body tense beside me. His face is unreadable as he grabs a whiskey shot from the table. He tosses it back and holds the liquid in his mouth. Iris licks her lips and walks over to him. She bends down, puts both hands on his cheeks... And "drinks" the shot from his mouth. I'm shocked by the bawdy display. Even more so when she locks eyes with me as she does it. I feel an unexpected pang of annoyance and look away.

A few moments later, Iris saunters back to her seat. "Yumm. Now it's my turn." Her eyes find mine as soon as she turns around. I gulp loudly. "Millie, drink or dare?" After the performance she just put on, I go with what I feel is the safer bet.

"...dare." Iris' eyes light up mischievously.

"I dare you to take off your panties... And put them in the middle of the table...for the rest of the game." Finn stiffens beside me. He's no doubt thinking of my granny panties. I look at Iris and can't help but wonder... Did she see my panties on my bed earlier? She smiles evilly at my hesitation. Yeah, she definitely saw them.

"Umm.."

"Come on Millie, what are you waiting for?" Finn leans over to whisper in my ear.

"You don't have to-" I hold up a hand.

"Well, I can't do that, Iris. Because you see, I'm not wearing any.
