Millie anxiously rubbed her hands on the curve of her dress, shifting every few moments to ease her nerves. The movie that she and her boyfriend, Finn, had worked on was nominated for an Oscar. She and Finn, along with all the other actors, directors, writers, and the crew had worked incredibly hard on their film; Love You Always, and for them to be nominated for an Oscar blew all of their minds.
Finn notices her nerves, and gently grabs her hand, squeezing it in reassurance. Millie feels a jolt of warmth and safety course through her veins.
He was just as anxiety-filled as Millie, but after years of being in the spotlight, he managed to contain it well enough. Unlike Millie, though, he was anxious for another reason.
Tonight was the night he planned on proposing to the love of his life.
He had two plans; one for if they won the Oscar, and one for if they didn't. Either way, he wanted it to be perfect.
Finn and Millie has been dating since Stranger Things had ended. They confessed their feelings for one another (which everyone made sure to tell them how obvious they were) while filming the final season, adding more chemistry to their characters. However, all chapters end eventually. When Stranger Things ended, none of the cast lost contact. They moved on to great things, and Millie and Finn continued to go strong.
Sure, they had their fights. Yet Finn was sure of his decision to spend the rest of his life with her; if she'd allow him. In fact, he's never been more sure of anything in his life.
"Is it hot in here, or is it just me?" Millie whispers to him, as people continue to take their seats for the award ceremony.
Finn gently traces shapes on the back of her hand, knowing this calmed her nerves. He grins at her before stating, "The only hot thing in here is you, angel." He winks at her, smiling as her cheeks reddened.
They had been dating for a long time, and yet they both got incredibly flustered around each other. Call them lovesick, if you will.
"Shut up." She mumbles, quieting when the spotlight shone on the stage.
Time passed, awards were given, rounds of applause were politely delivered. Millie still had an anxiety bubbling in her stomach, and she couldn't help the bouncing of her foot, regardless of Finn's finger gently tracing her hands.
"And here are your nominees for best picture. M/N, A/M/N, A/A/M/N, and Love You Always." The award hostess pauses, as everyone sucks in a breath.
"And the Oscar goes to... Love You Always!!" She yells into the mic, as cheers erupt from the audience.
Millie and Finn, along with the others who showed up rise from their seats, hugging each other and their family members who came with them. Tears streamed down Millie's face, as she gently took Finn's hand, as he carefully lead her to the stage.
Screams still filled the audience as each cast member took their own award. Finn smiles, waiting as Meryl Streep finished her speech, before stepping in front of the microphone.
A girl from the audience screams out a confession of love, and Finn lets outa soft chuckle.
"Well, hello everyone! I think I can speak for the whole cast when I say that we're all so incredibly honoured and grateful to have won this award. I know I am, especially because the work paid off while working with my girlfriend, I deserve an award for putting up with her." His voice drops to a whisper at the last part, as the audience lets out polite laughter. "Okay, but jokes aside, I have something to ask my amazing girlfriend. Millie, I've loved you since we started working together for Stranger Things. My life is so incredible with you in it, and I've never been more grateful to meet someone as I am to have met you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you...."
The audience begins screaming and cheering as Finn drops to one knee, pulling a small velvet box out of his jacket pocket.
Millie feels a multitude of emotions flood her body, and while her mind was so wrapped around the boy she knew she wanted to marry that she hadn't noticed the fresh wetness glaze her chocolate eyes. Her shaky hand rises to cover her mouth, letting out a broken breath as the tears began slipping from her eyes.
"So, Millie Bobby Brown. Will you make me the happiest man in the world... and marry me?" His voice slightly trembles, his voice now clearer as the audience waits with bated breaths.
"Yes! A million times yes!" She exclaims, giggling as he rushes to pick her up and twirl her. He was the epitome of joy at the moment, his arms holding his now-fiancé, their Oscar awards placed gently next to them, tears streaming down both of their faces as the audience continued to scream.
"I love you." He whispers against her soft lips, tainted with the moistness of her tears.
"I love you more." She whispers back, their breaths tangling together in their own vow to spend the rest of their lives together, the sounds of the audience falling on their deaf ears.
"I guess I won more than one award tonight."
