(changed a few words)

- Finn was supposed to be my ticket to fame but what am I supposed to do when he leaves?

Characters:
- Finn
- Melanie
- nick

Just one more day, just one more day.
I have to keep on going with this lie.

Flashback: 6 months before

"That's Finn Wolfhard, super famous. You need him" Nick whispered.
"What-no"
"You need his fame, you think you're talented enough?"
This is his way of telling me I won't be as successful because I'm a woman, and those are mom's words.
Nick was supposed to be the famous one, not me but I apparently stole his spotlight.
"Go talk to him" he pushed me closer to Finn.
He was with another 2 people.
They hugged him and left him on his own.

"Hi" I approached him
"Melanie Holley?"
"That's me" I grew a smile,
a real one.
End of flashback:

I somehow managed to get Finn to like me, to the point that we last 6 months
I obviously don't want to catch feelings, it will be really unfair for him, more than it already is.

I went over to Finn's house to watch movies, that's was our favorite thing to do, review movies, like them, love them, or hate them. This is the part that isn't fake.

"What do you think ?" I turned my torso to look at him.
He pulled my waist and got me closer to him
"Not one of my favorites, you ?"
"I actually liked it" I chuckle at our disagree to agree.

I pulled myself away leaving a space between us.
"Everything okay ?" He asked concerned
"Yeah, I think I should go" I started getting shaky, I didn't want to seem like I wanted to leave him
"Or maybe you could stay?" He offered
"... um I promised nick to spend time with him" I blurt
"Oh.. ok" he kissed my forehead.
"I love you" he whispered
I let go of his hand
"I love you too bye" I rushed downstairs
"Bye Mrs. and Mr. Wolfhard," I said before rushing out.

"fuck" I shouted inside my car.
Tears started coming down my cheek.
I can't do this to Finn.
I mean I do love him, a lot. Just not in a romantic way.

But I have to face reality, I have to go home
I wiped my face as soon as I parked outside my house.
I didn't want to have to explain what happened.
I tried to make no noise but I eventually crossed patch with nick
"Are you crying?"
I rolled my eyes, isn't if fucking obvious.
"What happened?" Mom was now asking me
"Leave me the fuck alone" I rushed upstairs to my room.
I know nick is going to tell Finn.
I wish I wasn't living in this lie, I lie that's going to hunt me forever.

Finn started blowing up my phone

Finn: Is everything okay?
Finn: Melanie reply!
Finn: I'm going!!
Melanie: I just want to be alone. Please don't come.
Finn: please text me when you feel better.

Next day:

I had to get up to do an audition, my manager tried to get this role for some time and I couldn't let her down.

"It's about Finn isn't it?" Nick asks
"jeez, can't you just leave me alone ?"
"You want to back out don't you"
"Wouldn't you? He deserves to know the truth!"

I started walking again
"I'm going to tell him everything!"
"Go ahead"

For the audition, I had to do extra lines and stayed a little longer than planned. I was scared to open my phone when I got out. I knew nick was capable of actually telling Finn

Nick: stop thinking you're better than us, without Finn, you wouldn't be anyone
Nick: and I'll prove it
Nick: I can't wait to see how your fame ends
Melanie: did you tell him-?
Nick: just did.

fuck, no this can't be happening. I can't lose Finn, not like this, not right now.

Finn: really Melanie...?
Finn: why use me?
Finn: I actually liked you.
I loved you!
Melanie: Finn it's not like that! I promised

seconds later Finn came out, I got out of my car
"Finn please" I went to hug him but he pulled away
"How could you do this to me!"
"My life isn't perfect Wolfhard! My mom and Nick hate me and only want my fame. I didn't want to do this but I had to!
"My life isn't perfect either! I didn't date you for fame! I dated you for you"

"I like you-" I whisper
"no you don't! You like the idea of me! you like the idea of having a boyfriend but really you're just using me to make yourself feel better about everything in your life that sucks !"
