A Second Chance | Fadie

Chapter 27

Masked Men

Millie's POV:

"Ughh WHAT!" I shout through my door.

My hungover hit harder than it ever has before. I gag almost every time I get a smell of the vodka and cheap red wine Sadie and I consumed last night.

"Open. NOW!" Noah yells back.

"Ugh fine." I mumble, sluggishly getting up off my couch and making my way over to the door.

My feet drag along the tiled floor as I can feel Noah's presence by the door. I take a hold of the door handle, turning it and opening the door. before I could even feel the outside world Noah storms in and slams the door behind him. I stand there shocked, turning around to look at the boy with his face inside of his phone basically.

"Noah what the fuc-"

"Millie just shut up and look!" He shoves his phone in my face.

"Wait, I can't read with it that close!" I push the phone away slightly to get a better look.

I scan the photo, my brain not clicking to who or what it even was at first. But then it all came together.

"That's..." I say shocked, looking up at Noah.

"Yup."

"So that means..."

"Mhm."

"So, we..."

"Have to go!" Noah grabs my arm, rushing me out of the door.

"Noah, I'm not wearing a fucking bra!" I shout, trying to stop him from rushing.

"There's one in my car still." He says, so unbothered.

I find my face turn hot with embarrassment, the cool morning air not helping with it either. I rush over to Noah's car, unlocking the door and climbing in. I look at him as he stressfully starts the car and speeding out of my driveway.

"Shit."

"Okay, but are you 100% sure it's DEFINITELY him?" I ask Noah.

"Yes, Millie," He says, keeping his eyes on the road ahead.

"Jaeden sent it to me, he must know someone who was also involved."

"Wait, wait, wait," I say, shaking my head.

"Your trusting JAEDEN?!" I ask, lightly slamming my hand on the centre console of his car.

"Oh, Millie give it a break! He's our insight on all of this of course I'm going to trust him!" He says back harshly.

"Ugh, whatever but if he fucks us over. I told you so." I voice to him, slumping back into the passenger seat car.

I hear Noah scoff as he turns the corner and parks up at Finn's house. We both climb out, slamming the doors and making our way over to the front door. Noah knocks 3 times. Then another 3. Then another.

"Noah knock it off!" I harshly whisper.

"Well he's not fucking answer- Mr. Wolfhard, hi!" Noah quickly changes his tones as he become face to face with Finn's father.

"Hey kids, oh hey Mill!" Eric says, opening his arms for a hug.

I walk forward, hugging my father-like figure, giving him a soft smile as I step inside.

"Finn and Sadie are in his room; I'd knock if I were you because..." He gives us a playful wink before walking back into the lounge room.

Noah and I slightly chuckle at ourselves before rushing down the hallway and into Finn's room. Noah forgets to knock and swings the door open to see Sadie and Finn making out.
