Millie's POV.
I answered the door and there he stood. Finn. Dressed in a suit. I couldn't help but laugh a little.
"Oh my God. What are you wearing?" I ask laughing.
"My parents are organising a party. Just..." He grabbed something out his pocket. "Here." I grab the letter off him. I looked at it and it was my dog. I look to him. "What's this?" I ask.
"My parents wanted to organise a party to bring Dolly home. Since it was my fault." I shake my head.
"Thanks Finn, but this won't work. I know Dolly. A party won't help me. It was nice of you." I say. He seemed sad.
"Okay." He turns and I couldn't help about the kiss.
"Actually, Finn!" He stops and turns.

I invited him so we could talk. Not about Dolly. About the kiss. I needed to get something off my chest.
"I need to talk to you."
"What?" He asks.
"The kiss." He shakes his head.
"Im sorry about that. I didn't know what I was thinking. I need to think before I do anything. I'm really sorry." I didn't expect him to apologise.
"Oh. It's fine." I answer. He said what he needed to say. It was just awkward that's all.
"I need to head back. I just wanted to see if you would come. It's not a party for Dolly, maybe I shouldn't of said that." He walks to the door. I stood up and followed him. He opens the door and looks to me. He doesn't say anything but looks at me. He walks out and the door closes. Oh my God Millie! You should of kissed him then!
-
A day later and I was still blaming myself for not making a move on him. Cheez Louise. I hated not doing anything at that point. I didn't have much to say but let him say it all. There must be a reason why he stopped. Maybe I will never find out.
"Millie!" I heard my mom call. I look to the door and walk out my room. I appear at the top of the stairs and see Finn at the door. Again!
I walked to the door and thanked my mom for letting me know.
"Hey!" I answer. "My keeps getting suspicious why you keep coming here." I joked.
"Ha ha. I actually wanted to surprise you." I frown. He looks behind and whistles. A dog comes out and guess who it was....
"Dolly!" I screamed happily. I bent down and she gave me kisses. I stroked her and hugged her like she was human. "Thank you! Where did you find her?" I ask.
"Strange enough she was being looked after by the girl down the street. She told me she had your dog and wanted to give her back to you. She didn't want the reward." I got up and Dolly went inside.
"Oh my God! Dolly!" I heard my mom say. I giggle and invite Finn in. He walks in and looks about.
"Are you decorating?" He looks around. I didn't answer. I sure he wouldn't be pleased to find out the truth.
"Actually.... No." I answer. "We're moving." Finn's face dropped. I know this broke him inside. It kills me too. I grab his arm and take him upside where no one can hear us.
"So you're leaving here?" Finn asked.
"Yes." I answer.
"Where you going?" He asks.
"I don't know. When we lost Dolly we know we had to move. It's not because of you. Its getting crowded in this house. There's a lot of us here and we need a bigger house." I told Finn.
"Well, there's a house near mine that's up for sale...." He froze."Wait!"
"What?" I ask.
"You're living near us?" I shrug. I don't know yet. But if we do, I'll let you know. We can still keep in contact. You're the pizza boy anyway. I'll just be ordering a lot of pizzas to see you." I smiled. He smiled too. "Or..." I pause. I look at his lips and went for it. I leaned in and kissed his lips. How soft they were and how magic this moment was. I was happy to get Dolly back and also get "my" first kiss with him.
"Wow!" He said breaking away. I smirked. "I like you." I say. But like wasn't the right word. "I love you." I say instead. His eyes wide open. I walk away and crunch my face up as I was suddenly nervous and embarrassed. In a good way.
-
We moved out the small house and moved in to a much bigger house. Dolly was near me at all times now. Not leaving my side. My parents were happy and glad she was back with us. Just before we moved.
I looked into my new room. A bed for Dolly in the corner.
"Look Dolly, you're bed." I point. She looks to me with her tongue out. I giggle. The bell goes and my mom calling me again.
"Millie, get that for us!" I turn and walk off. Back to the front door like always. I open the door and to my surprise there he was.
"I KNEW IT!" He said loudly.
"What?" I ask.
"You was living near me." He seemed happy. Did this day get better or what?
