Ever since we were little, Alex had always told me that I wasn't allowed to date Finn. When we were kids, it didn't really matter, but I know she's always hated the idea. When we were ten, she made me promise to never be with Finn. And I promised. I would never date her twin brother.

Since before I can even remember, it's always been the five of us. Nick, Finn and Alex, and me and my older brother Quincy. The two older boys have always been best friends, and then the younger three of us have been like the three musketeers. It's almost like I'm their long lost triplet. I'm only a month older than the twins, but I've always been treated as the youngest in the bunch. It's because I'm short. I would consider myself the odd one out.

It's because our parents are best friends. They have been since college, and the two couples just conveniently ended up having kids the same ages. So obviously the kids got along. We've always gone on family vacations together. Had family game and movie nights together. Gone to school together. Carpooled everywhere. It's great, I love the Wolfhards.

Now we're seventeen, Finn, Alex, and I. Having grown up together, it's a little strange that we're almost adults. Seeing Finn become a famous actor and watching Alex become a model has left me a little lost for something to make me unique. Sure, I make music, but I'm nowhere as close to as successful as my two best friends. To put it into perspective, Finn has 18 million Instagram followers, Alex has 9 million, and I have 300k. And obviously it's only because of them. My band has also had a little success, but not as much as Finn's. He asked me to be in his band when he started it, but since we're both guitar and vocals it doesn't really make much sense for us to be on the same stage. 

Another thing that's different now, Finn is really hot. So is Alex, they're just genetically gorgeous. I don't get it. I'm just mildly pretty, short, and petite, meanwhile, they're both tall and skinny with perfect facial structure. I mean, they both get paid to model if that proves my point. So for the past couple of years, hanging out with Finn has made my stomach all fluttery sometimes. I mean, he's hot, cute, and funny all at the same time. There's no way for me to tune that out. But I promised Alex, and a promise is a promise. I've never told her about the crush I have on Finn. I've never told anybody, but I'm pretty sure Quincy has his suspicions.

But another little aspect about this situation, Quincy also thinks Finn has a crush on me. I didn't believe him at first, I didn't believe him for a while actually. He's way above my league, and we're just best friends. But if I like him, it's completely possible that it also goes the other way around. There are little things I notice, like him looking at me while I pretend not to notice, or him saying things that I notice, like about how his "type" is girls who are funny and shorter than him. I do make him laugh a lot, and he's at least half a foot taller than me.

So I decided that Quincy is right. Finn's never been with a girl, never even kissed somebody other than for acting or a dare. One night, during a deep talk with the whole gang, on winter vacation at a ski resort up in Whistler, Finn told us that he thinks he's in love. We asked who, but he wouldn't tell us. When Alex pushed him to tell us, he complained about being tired and went to bed. I couldn't stop thinking about it, I mean it had to be either me or a guy. His only female friends are his sister and me. It could have been one of his costars. I thought for a minute that he was talking about Sadie, but then I remembered that she has a boyfriend.

That night, I did something really stupid, or at least I thought it was until I did it. I went to Finn's room in the cabin we were staying at and found that he was still awake. He was working on some script for his short film. 

"Finn? You're still up?"

"Oh yeah. I uhh, I couldn't sleep."

I sat down on his bed, next to him.
