You're 5 episodes away from the end of filming ST season 4. But after a series of crazy things happening offset, (Y/N) realizes that there is way more drama offstage than on. But will one special boy fix it all?
"Mom, what is it? You're scaring me." I reply into the phone. Finn, who is still sitting next to me, grabs my hand at this. "No it's not bad. Well, not really. I got a great job offer in Vancouver. We're moving in at the end of the month." She finishes. I hear the excitement in her voice. But I also hear the nerves. I could tell she was worried that I would be mad about this, but truthfully, back home I wouldn't remember anybody. And I don't think I'd be able to go through that again. "That's great. I'll still be here filming, though." I say flatly. "That's okay. I'll see you in Vancouver!" She says brightly. I can tell she is smiling. We exchange byes and I hang up. "Everything good?" Finn asks me as he lightly squeezes my hand. I forgot that he was still holding it. "Yeah. We're moving." I tell him with pretty much no emotion. "I can't tell if you're happy or mad." He laughs softly, only half joking. "I don't really want to talk about it." I admit as I turn away from Finn. I can't tell him that I'm okay with it. I can't tell him that I'm happy to have a fresh start, because every time my memory, or lack of it is brought up, I know it hurts him. "You know you can tell me anything, right?" He says. "Finn I..." I hesitate. "I mean it. You don't have to hide anything from me." He admits. "Finn I'm happy we're moving. I really am." I tell him. "So why do I feel like there's something you're not telling me?" He questions. Damn, he's good. "Finn, I'm happy because I can start fresh." I tell him. "You mean, that you won't have to worry about not remembering people because they will all be new?" He says. "Yeah. I just don't like bringing it up." I finish. "I'm so sorry. It's all my fault." Finn pleads. "No, it's not." I tell him as I stand up. "Finn, you may think that it's your fault but it's not. I took that bullet for you because I wanted to. You didn't know and you didn't ask me so it's not your fault. Please, please understand that, because knowing that this bothers you, it kills me." I finish softly. He looks down at the ground like a guilty child and I sit myself down right next to him, wrapping my arms around him. "Let's just get past this, okay?" I whisper into his ear. He turns towards me with a faint smile on his pale, pearlescent face. "Okay." ———————————————————————— Millie's POV
I walk to Zara's trailer. It's late at night and I just want to talk to her. As I walk up the steps, I notice her crutches in the trash can outside. I'm so happy she's getting physically better, but mentally, I'm still concerned. I want to ask her about her situation with Finn. Last we talked, she was bawling her eyes out. I hope she's okay. I knock on her door. "Hi." She says with a genuine smile. She's wearing a casual maroon dress with a heart necklace.

"Hi. Can I come in?" I reply. I just really need someone to vent to right now. I need to tell her what happened between Noah and I. Clearly, she noticed something was wrong, because she lightly grabs onto my hand and pulls me into her kitchen. She pulls up a seat for me and gestures for me to sit down. "What's up?" She asks, staring into my eyes. "Noah and I. We had a fight. Our first fight as a real couple, actually." I confess to her. She frowns in response. "Millie. I'm so sorry. What was the fight about?" She questions, seriously wanting to know. She was always such a good listener. "I don't even really know, a bunch of things I guess. I think it was mostly that we're so busy with work, we don't spend enough time together. And maybe..."I trail off and sniff into the air. It smells like berries and sugar. "Why does it smell so good in here?" I add. Her eyes light up as she exclaims, "Oh! It's my berry pie! Do you want a slice?" She stands up to go get a plate and fork before I can even say yes. "Of course I do." I admit to her as she places the entire pie in front of me. As she leaves to pour glass of milk to go with my slice, I look at the freshly made dessert. I'm not one to judge, but there's a lot less left than I was expecting. She usually didn't eat that much. I don't want to be rude, but I'm curious and she's my best friend, so I say to her, "Wow. You ate a lot of pie!" She laughs as she sets my milk glass down. She starts to cut me my own piece and adds, "Hey, that wasn't just me!" At this, I'm confused. I was about to ask her who else would've been here with her when I notice the mop of curls sticking out of a blanket on her couch. She sets my slice in front of me with a fork and sees me looking at Finn. "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. Finn's here. But don't worry, he's asleep, so we can talk about whatever." She gushes smiling at him. "I didn't even notice." I tell her honestly. "Are you two back together?" I ask, hoping for all the juicy details. "Well, we spent the whole afternoon together after filming. We actually baked the pie together too. But to be honest, Millie, I have no clue what we actually are." She says. "You should ask him." I advise. "I don't know. We're still really new, so I'm going to wait a little first. But enough about me, we were talking about you." She says as she gestures to me. "I'm just worried that we won't be..." I get interrupted by Finn rolling off of the couch and falling onto the floor. Zara jumps out of her seat and rushes over to Finn's side, who's still sleeping. "Finn! Oh my god!" She says as she falls onto her knees, shaking him softly. He groggily sits up, confused. She pulls him in for a hug and he raises his arms up and hugs her back. "Good. You're okay." She says quietly, almost a whisper. They release from each other and Zara pecks Finn on the cheek, stands up and starts to walk back to me. That's when Finn notices I'm here and looks at me slightly awkwardly. I can't help but laugh at this. "Hi Finn." I giggle as he flops back onto the couch. "You should give Millie some of our pie." Finn says into the pillows as he tries to fall asleep again. "I did already." Zara replies back. "It's delicious." I chirp. "Oh my god! I have the best idea!" Zara stands up. "I know how you can spend more time with Noah! Let's go on a double date!"
