HE LOOKS AT MILLIE'S CUP OF WATER, EYEING IT INTENSELY.

"I'm still a little worried on what you were taking about, why won't you tell us?" Caleb asks as everyone gets out of the car.

Gaten hops out of the passengers seat and slams the door behind him, following everyone inside the small diner they found in town. He just shrugs at Caleb.

"I thought we could discuss it here."

"In public?" Caleb asks, a dumbfounded expression of his face as they walked inside, the cool air hitting them automatically.

"Uh huh."

Caleb rolls his eyes at gatens answer, if anyone over hears them, he's just gonna say it was his idea and leave. That would be a good plan in his mind.

They all sit down at a red booth, noticing the 'seat yourself' sign before a waitress rushes over to their table quite quickly. There were only a few customers this early so business was slow.

"Hi, my name is Janet, I'll be your server for today. What can I get you guys to drink?" The old woman asks before taking out a note pad and pen, clicking it loudly. She gives everyone a sly smile. Her baby blue eyes and platinum, faded blonde hair matched perfectly with her aqua colored uniform.

"Water."

"Pepsi."

"Is coke okay?" The woman asks, pausing her actions and looking up from her small note pad. Gaten sighs and nods with a gloomy face before the woman continues.

"Dr. Pepper."

"Tea."

There was a silent pause as the woman looked at Finn. His eyebrows were furrowed the whole time as he looked around confusedly, not knowing what to do.

He looked helpless in the moment.

Millie smiles lightly and her hand grasped his side arm, looking up at him with her brown orbs.

"What do you want to drink?" She asks softly, her voice was so gentle. Finn looked over at her and shrugs, Millie looks back at the woman.

"He'll just have what I'll have, I guess." She mutters and the woman nods before walking into the kitchen. Everyone sighs, now they could talk about the plan.

"So, can you tell us now?" Caleb pushes, looking at gaten across the table. The booth was pretty big for five people, it was a corner booth.

Finn and Millie sat in the middle whilst Caleb and gaten sat on the outskirts. Natalia was just squished between Caleb and Finn.

Gaten nods slowly before clearing his throat loudly, everyone waiting impatiently for him to start speaking.

He suddenly leans in on the table and covers the side of his mouth, whispering something so quiet that no one understood what he was saying. Millie's face scrunched up and Caleb looked at him as if he was dumb.

"What?" Caleb asks across the table, leaning in further.

Gaten muttered something a bit louder but no one heard, it was getting on everyone's nerves, except Finn. He had no idea what was happening so he just had a neutral face while he stared at Millie.

"I said, I can hack into the traffic light system and we can race Dacre!" Gaten yells irritatingly, causing everyone to flinch and look around with suspicious gazes.

"Dude! Shut up!" Natalia interrupts, a few faces turned their way and then minded their own business like nothing ever happened.

"Sorry, but I can do it. I swear. Finn, you said you were good at driving right?" He asks, Finn turns his attention to gaten quickly nodding, his reaction was a little delayed because he wasn't paying that much attention.

"I was thinking that I could be like, you know, your inside guy." Gaten whispers.

Finn furrows his eyebrows, gaten internally face palms but doesn't show his frustration.

"I can direct your through as I change the lights, we can somehow get Dacre off track. Then two of you can go in the underground tunnels." He finishes, everyone seemingly understanding what he was on about.

"But," Finn says suddenly, catching everyone off guard as they turn to him.

"I need p-" He was cut off by the waitress coming back with a whole tray of drinks. She sets the tray on the table and everyone sits straight up, finn giving the woman a dirty glare because she wouldn't let him finish.

"Here you guys are, y'all ready to order?" She asks, smiling happily as she passes out the drinks. Everyone looks at each other, unsure.

"Actually this is fine for right now, we're just gonna hang out for a few minutes." Millie suddenly says as she laughs nervously, the woman nods and walks off.

"So, what were you saying?" Gaten asks, taking a sip of his coke. Each time he asks for coke, they only seem to have Pepsi and each time he asks for Pepsi, they only have coke. What has this world come to?

"I need practice." Finn states, taking a sip of his unknown liquid. He basically drinks the whole thing at once.

"Driving?" Millie asks, turning to him. He looks over at her and nods cutely. She smiles at him and watches as he nearly finishes his water.

"I also don't have a car." He says once more, pushing his empty cup in front of him before folding his arms over the table. Caleb perks up.

"You can use mine, it's a little rusty but it'll do the job." He says, giving Finn a reassuring smile.

Finn nods, heavily sighing.

He looks at Millie's cup of water, eyeing it intensely. She doesn't seem to notice as everyone was just having a light conversation together. He bends his head over, leaning his neck down and taking out his straw slowly from his empty cup, his eyes looking at her the whole time.

He slowly but surely moves his straw into her cup successfully, taking a huge sip.

Millie looks down and sees he's drinking her water, her eyes widening.

"Hey!" She says playfully, he stops with a smirk as she yanks her cup away. He just giggles at her and watches as she cutely takes a sip of her own water, rubbing it in Finns face as she gazes up at him through her lashes.

Finn suddenly has the urge to kiss her, so he leans in and kisses her cheek softly.

Her cheeks flush at the contact before she stops sipping on the water, he laughs at her and she kicks his leg playfully under the table, although her kick didn't hurt him at all.
