I Melt With You

Finn woke up Saturday morning to a ping coming from his phone. He let out a loud groan as he stretched out on the bed, enjoying the soft mattress beneath him. It was a big difference from the couch back in the trailer, so he felt much more relaxed and refreshed this morning.

That is until he saw the text that was waiting for him when he unlocked his phone.

'House party after dinner? Sleepover included.'

As soon as he finished reading it, he dialed his best friend.

'Morning, idiot!', Caleb answered cheerfully.

'What did I do to deserve such a lovely greeting this fine morning?', Finn grumbled sarcastically.

'Considering you've just woken up, I know that you haven't done anything', Caleb responded adding, 'Yet'.

Finn sighed out-loud, shaking his head at his friend's laughter. He always laughed at Finn's expense. It didn't really bother Finn that much, but he did wish he'd stop giving Caleb more and more reasons to justify him doing that.

Caleb was always this smooth-talking stud, and Finn... well, he's lucky he's cute, otherwise he would've never dated anyone. He always seemed to say and/or do the wrong thing. And, unless you knew him for quite some time, you wouldn't know it's all a part of his personality. His quirkiness is definitely something you need to get accustomed to.

'Ha ha ha... you're so funny', Finn said in a deadpan manner, 'Anyways,' he trailed after remembering why he actually called in the first place, 'what's up with the group text? You seriously inviting all of us to a sleepover?'

'Yeah, man, why not? This is the first time I've got my own crib during filming, chaperone free. We have to make use of it and hang out. Besides, it's not like we can go anywhere. It'll be just like old times', Caleb answered.

Like old times. It has been ages since they've had a sleepover all together. And if Finn's night with Millie was any clue as to how tonight's gonna go... it didn't bode well for him. But he'd never say no, no matter what. He made the mistake of avoiding group-hangs once before, because of one particular person, and he still regretted it to this day. They were his family after all, and you don't walk away from your family.

'Alright', Finn dragged out, 'Has, um...has she confirmed anything yet?'

'I'm pretty sure she's dead asleep right now... we talked till about 2 AM.'

'You... talked last night?'

'Yeah...Am I not allowed to talk to your girlfriend late at night?', Caleb asked mockingly.

'I didn't say that and she's not my girlfriend', Finn snarled whilst rolling his eyes.

Caleb lifted his arms defensively even though Finn couldn't see him, 'Alright, alright, I'll stop! Yeah, we talked, why?'

'Did she', he started hesitantly, 'Did she say anything about me?'

'Dude, I already broke my promise to her by telling you we talk about you from time to time... I ain't telling you shit, not anymore.'

'Ugh, fine. It's not like you even have to tell me anything, I know I messed things up anyway.'

'Could you just refrain from your idiocy tonight? Let's have a nice night, all together, like we used to', Caleb asked.

'Why do you think I'll be the one to ruin things? She's not a saint', Finn complained, feeling a bit annoyed because everyone always seemed to blame him for everything.

'Don't think I won't have the same talk with her later. The both of you need to get your shit together', Caleb paused, 'And, in the wise words of Noah fucking Schnapp, hook up already!'
