Never meant to || fillie

We'll be okay

*third person POV

Slowly the world outside of the room they are in ceases to exist. Suddenly the only thing that mattered was the ring. The story of it, the why if it didn't matter, did Millie cling on to it as if the world will come crumbling down if she loosend her grip a bit.

The truth, though they both dont know, is that it wil.

"Please" Finn said once again. Voice coming out strained. She can see in his face the desperation, the hope.

Millie was trying to convince herself that he didn't need to know . Trying to explain to herself that this ring wasnt of importance. But then again, she wouldn't be in this situation if it didn't. "Millie" he begged taking a few timid steps towards her.

She pulled away once again, avoiding his stare, "just-" she spoke in a whisper so low he could bearly hear. "just promise me youll listen to me. please let me explain. i just-" she said clutchng the ring in her right hand slowly brining it uo to her lips.

"Promise me we'll be ok." she looked up seeing the broken man he was. She'd hardly ever seen him like this and it pains her that in the times she has , she's been the cause for all.

Finn nodded his head wiping away a few tears that managed to roll down his face. He gave her a small smile as he reached out his hand . Millie stopped once again closing her eyes. She kissed the ring one last time whispering out an  "im sorry" before walking up to Finn , slowly letting the ring swing down and drop in his palm.

For months, his  friends and family tried doing even the impossible to help Finn remember but it wasnt until he held that ring, until he really looked at it. It wasn't until this small "insignificant" token of his past was brought to life, that Finn was hit with an ocean of forget thoughts. And along with those thoughts, came the feelings, the confusion.. the anger.

"This is.."

"Wait no, you said youd hear me out" Millie said once again putting dictance between the two noticing the  the hate rising in his eyes. But with every step she took, he followed.

"That was before i knew what this was. What  this means. You lied to me."  He uttered out,  gripping the ring, not once moving his gaze from hers. His look was intimidating in the worst way that it was scaring her.

Just get him to listen she kept telling herself. Hoping  to find a way to salvage a bit of the family they grew to be. "Please listen to me its not what you think."

"I don't want to listen to you. I cant! you lied to me. You kept her hidden from me."

"No i didn't. You where just starting and a baby was only going to get in the way." Millie cried out, grabbing his hand pleading  for him to belive her. Finn yanked his arm away stepping back.

"Bullshit."

"It's not bullshit, Finn "

"No, it is bullshit. You are so Selffish. You never cared.. because if you cared, God if you fucking knew me, you'd know that I would've done anything to figure it out. You lied to me for your own selfish reasons. You kept her from me. You even got the party. the people in the world i love and trust the most to lie to me. Honestly Millie How would you feel? if she was hidden from you.? if Your friends never tools  you you had an amazing daughter? How would you feel if i deprived you of 5 years with your kid. Aside from that,  you didn't just lie once, or twice, you lied to me every day for 5 fuckng years. "

Millie was always one to fight back, to have a comeback and always know what to say but in this moment she felt small. she felt speecheless, as if anything she said would just make it worse, that's if she could say anything at all.

"Even after what happend you still had the audacity to not tell me. Why didnt you tell me?" he whispered out looking at the ring in his hand now red from how tight his fist were.

"Defend yourself! isn't that what you were begging me to let you do." this he yelled charging towards her once again.

"This ws never meant to happen. You were never suppose to fnd out. I fucked up Finn i know but please, we can move on from this". she leand forward, gripping his arms not even caring about the tears thay spilled out.

"We can't ."

"But you promised."

Promise.

That word that once help so much love meant nothing to him. He let out a dry almost malicious laugh at the word.

"Do you know how stupid you sound?"

"I'm not stupid"

The room felt silent. neither saying a word for what felt like hours until Finn released a breath, grunting as he closed his eyes.

" Look, its my daughter's birthday, I want to be with her not in here fighting with you." He finally locked eyes with her and the next words he was going to say, she knew that there really was no going back.

"I will always love you but I can't forgive you. You've hurt me over and over again without a second thought. you didn't think about me or Bel  and how this affected us, you only thought about yourself. Just  know I'm here to stay. I know it wasn't in your plans but that's life. I'm not saying we can't get along but we can never go back to how things were. There's too much we can't fix". They both drifted towards eachother. Unlinking  the necklace and bringing it up to her neck, Finn wrapped it around her neck her hand gripping his arms.

whoever wheres this ring, will have my unconditional love.

"I love you, Millie. I always will, but this once, that isn't enough."
