In which Finn tries to convince himself that all the times he has hung out with Noah is merely platonic... kind of.

"Hey."
Noah jumps slightly, whipping his head around to find the source of the noise. His eyes narrow when he sees his co worker Finn trying to stifle his laughter at Noah's surprise.
"Sorry, didn't mean to make you jump." He says, sitting down next to the glaring boy. "What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing, Wolfhard. Stalking a new hobby of yours?" Noah asks, pulling his knees into his chest. He checks his watch. 16:42. He has to be home soon.
Finn frowns, watching his best friend. "I could leave, or-" He didn't think joining him would be much of a problem.
"No, its fine. Stay." He says quickly, tugging Finn's clothed arm to stop him from leaving. An awkward silence falls upon them. "How, uh, how did you find me anyway?" He asks, his face flushing as he hastily pulls his hand away.
Finn glances at Noah regretfully. "Sorry." he begins. "I saw you leave the skate park. I got confused so I decided to follow you. I'm not stalking you tough, I promise!"
Noah chuckles, "Relax Finnlard, I was kidding."
"Yeah, ha..." Finn quietly scolds himself, why is this so fucking awkward? "This place is nice." He notices, taking in the calmness of the tall trees and the sound and smell of the calm quarry.
"Yeah, it is." Noah replies, wringing his fingers. After what feels like hours later, he pipes up again, "Congratulations by the way, on IT chapter two."
"Oh." Finn says, surprised. "Thanks man."
Noah smiles at him. The awkwardness is back and Finn begs for it to leave.
"Have you watched IT chapter 2 yet?" He asks. Noah blushes lightly, avoiding eye contact.
"No..." he hesitates, embarrassed. "I'm not really keen on horrors." He sees Finn frown and winces. "It's because I'm a wimp." He adds quickly. "I'm positive both IT movies are amazing but I'll probably not watch them anytime soon."
Finn nods. "Because you're scared..?"
"Busted." He admits. Finn grins. "Don't laugh asshole!"
"Sorry sorry!" Both boys chuckle, turning magenta. "Are you... are you scared of watching it on your own or..."
Noah shrugs. "I've never watched a horror movie Wolfhard, I don't know if I'm able to watch them with others. Probably start crying and embarrass myself."
Finn smiles lightly. God he's so cute. "You, we uh we could watch it together if you want." He asks shyly.
Noah looks up at the taller boy, surprised. He smirks. "You asking me on a date, Wolfhard?"
Finn turns pink. "No. No! I just thought- I-it doesn't matter. Forget I said anything."
Noah's smirk drops. "Dude... I was just kidding! Of course I want to watch IT with you."
"Ok... ok, yeah! That's uh, that's great!" Finn beams. "We can watch it over at my place?"
"Woah, you need to slow down... I'm not ready to meet the 'rents yet."
